After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply

"Why is Lulu here?"

Lin Da recognized the robed figure and felt a mix of shock and delight.

He had not found Lulu since the Monster Tide erupted.

It turned out she was also on this battlefield.

Actually, Lulu had arrived in the middle of it all.

She had toured around another area, finding no opportunity to complete her task.

Then on the road, she heard that Lin Da had led the Phoenix Tail Flower into the heart of the Monster Tide.

Anxious, Lulu abandoned her task and hurried over.

In the overwhelming Monster Tide, searching for a specific person was extremely difficult.

Fortunately, being from the Werewolf Clan, Lulu had an acute sense of smell.

She had barely caught up in the nick of time.

"You go ahead, I'll hold off this crazy woman," Lulu shouted.

Lin Da nodded solemnly, "Be careful yourself, prioritize your safety."

The three members of the Phoenix Tail Flower crossed the small hill and rushed towards the deeper part of the battlefield at Breeze River Beach.

"Don't think of escaping." Tasya moved her agile long legs, and despite wearing a tight maid's dress and being a ranged class, her movements were nimble, like a swordsman.

"Same goes for you," Lulu taunted, her beast claw enveloped in dark aura, striking through the air.

A string of Battle Qi shot towards Tasya.

The latter could only distract herself to defend.

One round from the Magic Cannon had countered Lulu's Battle Qi string, but Tasya also furrowed her brow, a flash of surprise in her eyes.

'Witch?'

She thought to herself.

Tasya was all too familiar with this power.

Since being kicked out of the team and taking that as an experience, Tasya realized her own lack of strength.

Then, she heard the whispers of the Demon King.

"Sign a contract with the Demon Realm, become a witch~ All your wishes can be fulfilled, you know?"

Under the temptation of that flying white rabbit Familiar, Tasya blood-signed the contract and pressed her handprint.

Tasya, turned into a witch!

But she never expected, the familiar person before her, the werewolf Lulu, was also the same.

A witch.

Tasya concentrated her gaze on Lulu, a werewolf girl in Witch State, who seemed colder and more mysterious, her pale blue short hair wildly growing into shoulder-length, her tail also significantly thicker.

From below the neckline of her dress, black thorn-like tattoos surfaced, a sign of Witch Power running at its peak.

'A novice? Using so much Witch Power, aren't you afraid of the backlash afterward?'

Tasya immediately discerned that Lulu hadn't been a witch for long.

Only novice witches would use Witch Power so recklessly, without any hesitation.

When the backlash becomes severe, they'll have nowhere to cry.

The contrast between Tasya and Lulu was like that between a decrepit old person and a lively young girl.

During her journey to find her master, Tasya faced numerous dangers and frequently used Witch Power.

The contamination inside her body had already reached a very severe level.

Today, there were even signs of a flare-up.

Thus, even though Tasya was at a higher level than Lulu, she had to dedicate a significant amount of her power to suppress the Witch's Corruption.

The power she could spare was only enough to match Lulu, who had activated her Witch State, evenly.

In her contemplation, Lulu rushed forward.

A vicious knee strike aimed at Tasya's face.

Frost Wolf Warrior's skill: [Frost Wolf's Bite].

Blue and black interwoven Battle Qi energy formed a huge wolf head in front of Lulu's knee.

The wolf head opened its bloodied maw, its fangs gleaming coldly, aiming for Tasya's head.

Tasya used her Magic Cannon as a hammer, colliding it with Lulu's Frost Wolf's Bite.

Streams of Battle Qi erupted.

The muddy ground between the two seemed like a carpet that had been violently lifted.

The girls' hair blew backward.

Blue and brown eyes met, neither willing to back down in the slightest.

From the close distance, Tasya could see the small team badge on Lulu's chest, initially hidden but now exposed by the gust of wind.

It was identical to that charlatan's badge!

Tasya had thought Lulu acted out of some other motive to rescue that man.

But unbelievably, Lulu was his team member.

How could this be! Tasya found it impossible to believe. With the pride of the Werewolf Clan, how could she favor any other inferior team after having been in the Primitive Adventure Team?

"What's your captain's name?"

Tasya, harboring a sentiment she couldn't quite explain herself, asked with a trembling voice.

That arrogant charlatan, when mentioning his master, showed no respect yet seemed to know a lot about her and her master.

Was there a possibility that he was Dark Shadow, the captain of the Primitive Adventure Team?

Tasya's mind was in chaos. If this were true, wouldn't it mean she had taunted her master as a big-sized Small Fry?

The thought made Tasya so regretful that she wanted to point a Magic Cannon at her own head and pull the trigger.

At that moment, Lulu seemed to understand something and said sternly, "You're overthinking, he is not your master."

"...Li Cha. His name is Li Cha."

Tasya was stunned, unsure whether to feel disappointed or relieved.

At least, she didn't have to commit suicide by gun for insulting her master. Not only had she taunted that charlatan, but she also shoved her Magic Cannon into his mouth...

Such a thing, Tasya could only dare to imagine in her dreams.

'Thank goodness—if his name had been Lin Da, wouldn't that mean he was indeed Dark Shadow? Only such a great master can tame a werewolf like Lulu, who is weak but possesses pride.'

Tasya regained her composure, her lips curving upward in a sacred, oath-like expression as she spoke:

"Lulu, I don't know how you became a Witch, but even if you exert all this power, you can't defeat me. I carry the duty to serve the master on my shoulders, and until I find him, I cannot fall."

"No, please do fall," Lulu said coldly. "I will take good care of him, and I have no need of you."

"Arrogant! Do you know our master better than I, his personal maid? Only I can take good care of him!"

Tasya, angered, kicked towards Lulu's stomach with force as if her leg was a whip:

"I even know the count of the master's hair, what right do you have to claim you know him better than I do?"

With a thud, Lulu blocked the strike with her forearms, curling in mid-air and landing solidly on the ground.

Tap, tap, tap!

A stream of energy bullets followed, tilting towards her, but Lulu was fast, instantly closing the gap to Tasya's front.

"Exactly. I understand the captain better than you."Nôv(el)B\\jnn

Lulu's beast claws emitted a cold gleam, striking Tasya and sending her flying several meters away.

She even knew the taste of Lin Da's lips very well.

How could Tasya, who only cleaned, possibly understand Lin Da better than her?

"Stubborn."

Tasya said coldly, "Then tell me, how much do you know about the master's strengths? And just so you know, no matter how much you know, it can't compare to me."

"If I know more about the captain than you do, then please give up on returning to his side."

"Is that the stake... Fine, the cost of your failure is the same. This jousting battle against the ugly goblins, a fight with zero chance of loss, I, Tasya, accept it."

Tasya, her expression proud, stretched her right hand forward, her index finger pointing straight at Lulu who was half a head shorter:

"Let me take the first move. One of the countless strengths of our master: using extra-large gel sleeves, he displays more male elegance than any reckless Beastman!"

Lulu was shocked, stuttering, "Why...Why do you know about this?"

Wasn't a personal maid's job just to clean?

Tasya gracefully lifted her skirt, a proud smile on her face:

"As a maid, it's natural to know this. I can deduce it from the degree of bulging in the swimming shorts he wears in summer."

If Lin Da were here, he would understand that Tasya was referring to the summer events. Players bring their teams, all in swimsuits, to fight against mutated watermelon monsters on the beach.

Including the size of the body, which Lin Da had adjusted when creating the character, strictly according to his real-world appearance, to perfectly resemble Dark Shadow at a 1:1 scale.

"Hmm...So it can be deduced like that?" Lulu's face flushed slightly, not knowing what to think.

"It's your turn to make a move," Tasya said.
