Volume 1 Chapter 429
by post_apiChapter 429: Lolth: Are You Ailuo People Targeting Me?
"Grass!"
Listening to the sound of magical synthesis, Lolth couldn’t help but change her expression and blurt out a curse.
She felt the soul impact from that hit!
Although there was no injury, it still hurt quite a bit!
But she noticed…
A person’s voice overlapped with her own.
It was Master Krado.
In the next moment, two beams of light, like spotlights, shone on the two of them.
"The princesses present are these two."
Lolth and Krado both covered their faces at the same time.
"Damn Ailuo race…"
Lolth cursed without mercy.
Master Krado let out a long sigh and then seemed to give up as he pulled off his hood.
Under the spotlight, the disguise of the middle-aged man was torn away, revealing beautiful indigo hair and sparkling emerald green eyes.
His features were not stunning, but they had a kind of mysterious beauty.
With a faint blush appearing on his cheeks and the tip of his nose from being under the hood, "Krado" looked somewhat charming.
Even the calm Ling and the poker-faced Raven showed a rare expression of "I can’t understand, but I am very shocked."
Clearly, Krado being a woman…
There is no doubt that the concealment was done very well.
Surprisingly calm was Lolth.
"No wonder you wear a hood… what a troublesome face you have."
When "Krado" heard Lolth say this, her eyebrows raised, and her voice dropped the disguise.
"What right do you have to say that about me, Miss Kululu?"
A delicate voice sounded, and Lolth awkwardly touched her nose.
She almost forgot that she was quite pretty herself.
Ling, recovering from her shock, looked at the two and slowly spoke.
"So… which country are you princesses from?"
She asked this, and Lolth quickly gave an answer.
"I am the princess of the Golden Peacock; I have come secretly."
She immediately used the identity of her apprentice, Dorothy.
"I… I am the princess of Seychelles!"
"Krado" also answered without thinking.
Ling looked at the two of them and was silent for a moment.
"The Golden Peacock now has only one princess, who probably died recently in the demon race’s territory… even if she didn’t die, she was captured."
"And I met her when she was a child… sickly, coughing after walking just a few steps; how could she become a warrior woman?"
Saying this, Ling saw "Krado" looking at Lolth and laughing dramatically.
"Ah ha ha ha, you really can’t tell a lie well… You were caught red-handed!"
And Lolth looked at her as if she were foolish.
"Shabu, Seychelles is a republic; there are no emperors or kings, so there are no princesses."
"Krado" showed a shocked expression.
"What… don’t they have a top senator?"
"They have a speaker and a chief magistrate, but their daughter is not a princess," Ling calmly said. "Also, the position of the current chief magistrate is vacant… because recently, three important figures were killed by the demon race, so they were forced to step down."
"Krado" was stunned for another five seconds, then he pursed his lips.
"The people of Seychelles are really terrible…"
She commented without mercy.
But anyway, the atmosphere became awkward again.
Fortunately, this awkwardness did not last long.
Because the second question appeared.
"Please point out the two among you who are not human."
The Magical Synthesizer said this, and Lolth’s mouth twitched for a moment.
"Are you playing with me?"
She almost shouted in anger.
The first question asked who the princess was, and the second question asked who was not a human.
They agreed to ask everyone about things they were not willing to be honest about, so why was she being singled out?
Everyone looked at each other again.
"Krado" scanned all the faces and showed a surprised expression.
"There are actually three humans among us five!"
"I thought I was the only one!"
However, this time, Lolth was too tired to respond.
Soon, the countdown rang out again.
"Five, four, three, two, one."
Everyone raised their hands again.
Ling pointed at Lolth and Krado.
Lolth pointed to herself and Krado.
Krado pointed to Lolth and Ling.
Raven pointed to herself and Krado.
Ling pointed to Raven and Krado.
This time, two people pointed to themselves.
Lolth and Raven.
Since we have to reveal the answer, it might be better to avoid two lightning strikes.
So, since someone pointed to themselves, the answer is very clear.
The two non-humans present are Raven and Lolth.
After that, no one received news about the Proof of Trial, and the spotlight on the two people confirmed this.
However, this time, "Krado," who received four votes, showed a look of discontent again.
"Hey… what do you mean?"
"Why did everyone vote for me?"
"I am a real human being."
As "Krado" said this, Ling and Lolth remained silent, but it was Julie who spoke up.
"Because… earlier you said you were not a princess, but then you claimed to be one, and then you talked a lot of nonsense…"
As Julie said this, Raven nodded in agreement.
"I think so too."
"Krado" was speechless for a moment.
After holding it in for a long time, she finally sighed and said.
"Okay… my question."
"But earlier, I didn’t know the answer would be revealed. Since it will be revealed now, I don’t need to deliberately avoid it."
"Next, I suggest that everyone should not hide anything… because the longer we wait, the more secrets will be uncovered."
"So, we are not in competition with each other, but in cooperation… we all have secrets, so when it’s your turn, let’s be honest and pass the challenge quickly."
After she finished speaking, everyone nodded in agreement.
But it seemed they noticed the impact of Krado’s words, or it was just a coincidence.
The rules for the next question in the "Soul Trial" actually changed!
"The next question will be marked as a ‘light’ to show who it relates to."
"If you are not marked, please send your answer into the crystal in the form of a magic message."
"The marked person can give a related ‘word’ to help others, but they cannot answer directly."
"Also, getting an answer wrong will no longer take away Proof of Trial."
Everyone was stunned when they saw the new rules.
Then, in the next second, a beam of light shone on Ling.
A line of questions appeared above the crystal.
"Please tell us, what is the Superoperator job of the person the light shines on?"
Ling looked at the question, hesitated for a moment, and was about to give a hint.
But she realized she hadn’t figured out how to give a hint, and everyone had already finished answering!
