After being reborn, I was turned into a slave girl by a princess.

Even though she was only a dozen meters away from the steps, Lonnie felt increasingly threatened with each step she took. With each step she took, she gasped for breath, and her cheeks flushed even more.

Furthermore, it's impossible to squat down to rest, and even standing still is torture.

Lonnies felt her muscles twitching involuntarily, her consciousness becoming somewhat hazy. Waves of magical energy washed over her body, one after another... It seemed she was about to reach a state of magical overload, and thus be completely disarmed in the pool, turning into a silver-haired velvet ball.

However, at this crucial moment...

The attacks from those small props suddenly stopped.

Chapter 6 Crawling Forward

Although the attacks from the small toys stopped.

But when Lonnie climbed out of the pool, she was panting heavily and didn't even have the strength to get up.

Her clothes were completely soaked and clung to her skin... Because they were somewhat transparent, the texture of the girl's underwear was completely visible.

Her silver hair hung down, and because Lonnies's silver hair was already very long, it was now extremely heavy and reached the ground, making it impossible for the girl's head to move at all.

Drops of water trickled down the girl's thighs, past the absolute territory of her ribcage, across the cuffs of her white thigh-high stockings, and then slid down to the ground from her knees.

Fortunately, the room was quite warm, so Lonnie didn't feel cold.

But just then, Elusia's voice rang out again: "Haha, Lonnies, I didn't expect your pose to be so cute!"

"Waaah..."

"I'm slapping your butt so high, I really want you to see how much you want to be bullied, huh? But too bad, you don't have much time left."

"time?!"

"You've already wasted fifteen minutes, and you only have five minutes left. I really want to see that feigned despair on your face when time's up, but inside you're bursting with anticipation!"

"Elcia, you big bad girl!!!!"

Although she was "cursing" Elusia, even Lonnie didn't notice that there was a faint sob in her voice.

Speaking to Elusia in this tone was less of a sign of resistance and more of a pleading and pitiful act, hoping that Elusia would let him go.

"Hmph, begging for mercy won't do any good. The rules are absolute."

"I...I didn't beg for mercy...I..."

"Alright, alright, I'm not such an heartless owner. Seeing how pitiful you are, I've reduced the swaying of the balance beam a little. You should be able to cross it if you lie down, right?"

"Uh?!"

"But if you're not even willing to crawl, then don't blame me for being impolite! After all, I really want to play with you, my little white-stockinged maid."

"!"

With no other option, despite being extremely exhausted, Lonnie crawled and once again took on the challenge of crossing the log bridge.

In fact, this posture of crawling forward with both knees on the ground and using both hands is very shameful.

Because of this, Lonnie's chest was no longer supported by her bra, and it began to sway back and forth.

The unusually low visual field made the silver-haired girl feel like a puppy being trained by Elcia.

However, there is no alternative.

Because her hair was so heavy and her clothes were soaking wet, even though Lonnie could stand up, she felt dizzy and couldn't walk more than a few steps.

So, she could only move forward slowly, step by step, imitating the posture of a puppy...

Although the log bridge started swaying again, Lonnie didn't fall because she could grip the bridge with her fingers.

The stockings were wet and slippery, and my toes, covered in white silk, felt very uncomfortable being soaked in water.

Her whole body felt tingly, the lingering sensation from the little toy still lingering on her body, making the girl feel warm.

But Lonnie persisted, trying her best to focus her attention solely on maintaining her balance.

After crawling for several minutes, Lonnie finally managed to carefully cross the log bridge and got through this hurdle.

……

……

"Oh ho, not bad, not bad~ Although I'm exhausted, I finally made it."

“A... Elusia...I…”

At this moment, Lonnies really wanted to surrender... She knew that if she continued to be stubborn, Elusia would bully her even more and make her even more miserable.

But Lonnies also knew that this cunning girl was also a "kind girl," and if she saw that she was really exhausted, she probably wouldn't let her continue.

However, this is on the premise that you have to kneel down and surrender.

She might even be forced by Elusia to say some very shameful things.

but……

I've already been bullied so many times, so what's the big deal if I surrender once?

After all, she was already Elusia's "slave maid" and "white silk body pillow"... Surely she wouldn't be sold off after Elusia got tired of her?

Lonnies was feeling somewhat resigned, but just then...

Elusia, however, spoke up as well:

"Hmph, the third test is a test of intelligence. I'm sure you, you stupid maid, won't be able to pass it."

"what?"

"You're such a fool, you won't succeed even if you try. You might as well just surrender now!"

"Waaah!"

Elusia's taunts ignited the last vestige of Lonis's competitive spirit.

In fact, when she was a hero in the past, there were times when she was driven to the brink of despair by the demons.

But each time, I have used my wisdom and tactics to turn the tide and ultimately win... so this time will be no exception!

Although her body had become a girl, and her physical strength was objectively much softer, she couldn't let her spirit succumb to it.

(Elcia, watch this! As the hero, I will never submit like this!!!)

Encouraged by this, Lonnie dragged her soaking wet body and pushed open the door to the third level.

What comes into view is a very luxuriously decorated study.

On the central wooden table sat an incredibly ornate combination lock box.

It seems that as long as the code in the box is cracked, the key can be taken out and the door to the next level can be opened.

But how do we crack the password?

Lornish discovered that it was an 8-digit number, which was impossible to decipher if she were just guessing.

So you need to look for clues and see if there's anything noteworthy in the room.

"But...this is a study, so the key to solving the mystery must be the books, right?"

Lonnie looked at the books on the bookshelf. These books were all kinds of books, but since they had been arranged, there must be a few special ones.

The silver-haired girl's gaze swept over the titles of each book, and suddenly she remembered the words that Dean Cui Biya had said.

……

"This is a rare opportunity. I hope that every visitor to the Ancient Academy will not only have fun but also learn about the past."

……

So, books related to puzzles are also books related to ancient academies?

If we search like this...

Sure enough, Lonnie found a catalog of antiquarians in a brightly colored spot.

The book was filled with ancient place names, and on page 74, Lonnie found a bookmark.

(This means the 7th digit of the password is 4!)

Having found the key to the breakthrough, Lonnie was incredibly excited!

Soon, she found the remaining books in the drawer and on the bookshelf... Scattered here and there, she finally managed to piece together the password.

However, Lonnie soon had a problem.

Because at the very top of a bookshelf, there was also a book related to ancient times.

However, it's just too high!

The tables and chairs in the room were heavy and immovable, and Lonnie was also petite, so no matter how she jumped, she couldn't reach them.

So what should I do in this situation?

Chapter 7 Locked Room Punishment

Just as Lonnies was at her wit's end, Elusia's voice suddenly came from the speaker.

"Hmph, it seems you've run into some trouble, you little fool."

"Waaah..."

"Can't reach it? Just shout 'Master Elusia, please help me, the weak and stupid one,' and you can unlock the paid hint."

"How...how despicable."

Although she knew that Elusia was teasing her again, Lonnies was not going to fight back this time.

after all……

But saying it like that isn't really shameful, is it?

Besides, Elusia is bound to bully me eventually. Even if I don't do what she wants now, who knows how she'll torment me later.
