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

Instead, the Minotaur was also affected by its own mist, causing it to become even more trapped in the illusion.

Otherwise, at the very least, the Minotaur could have retreated.

Therefore, Ji Zhiye's heart was filled with coldness, and he only wanted to die.

However, Hoffa simply shook his head and said:

"Silent Leaf, this battle is not your fault. You may step back now."

"Lord Hoffa?!"

The green-haired girl's eyes widened. In her memory, Lord Hoffa, though not cruel, had always been a person who rewarded and punished fairly... Now that she had suffered a defeat, how could he not execute her?

However, the man in the black suit, whose head was engulfed in cyan flames, simply said:

"That's Elusia's true form. If you can muster the courage to fight against that guy, you've already accomplished your mission."

"!"

"Moreover, this was also a tactical mistake on my part. I didn't expect Elcia to be so much stronger than when I last saw her..."

"Lord Hoffa?"

Ji Zhiye stared in astonishment, because what bothered her more than death was the deep fear she saw in Hoffa's expression.

This means that even Lord Hoffa is no match for the other party.

But how is that possible?

Lord Hoffa is the manipulator of the power of the Cold Abyss, and also a descendant of an independent kingdom from a thousand years ago...

"Silent Leaf, you may step back."

"grown ups……"

"I need some time to calm down and think about the next battle strategy."

Chapter 48 The Villains' Cheers

"Wow, that's amazing..."

Looking at the battle outside the window, Zhou Mixue was stunned.

She had originally thought that Lonnies and Elusia had both turned into little fools, making the battle incredibly difficult, and that they might even be outmaneuvered and captured by the enemy.

But nowadays...

Combat seems to have become easier.

"Wow, Elusia and Lonnies are amazing!"

Amidst Su Ling's praise, everyone returned in triumph.

"Hmph, of course."

"Woof woof woof, meow meow meow~~"

Returning victorious, the little fox proudly raised its head, its tail almost reaching the sky.

Unharmed and calm under pressure, the girls' victory can be described as a complete triumph.

Seeing this, Zhou Mixue ran forward and congratulated them earnestly, saying, "You've worked hard, juniors... But are you alright?"

"Are you alright?"

"Hmm, for example... has Elusia noticed anything unusual about herself compared to usual...?"

Zhou Mixue's original intention was to make Elusia recall the reality of being hypnotized.

But the result was...

"Hmm, something definitely isn't right. I feel like I'm much smarter than usual right now~~"

"what……?"

"Does the little fox think so too?"

"Woof woof meow! (He twitches his ears in agreement)"

"Indeed, if that's the case, then let's have a celebration banquet tonight."

"Victory celebration banquet..."

"Well, we did defeat the enemy, right? Everyone, get some beer and cola ready, let's have a fun pray!"

----------------

……

"call……"

Gazing at the distant sky, Hoffa sighed deeply.

During today's battle, he was also secretly observing the entire situation, trying to find Elcia's weakness.

But to his surprise...

Elusia has absolutely no weaknesses!

Although he appears carefree and full of openings, every time Hoffa tries to make a move, he is always terrified.

The simplest way is the best, and it is flawless. Elusia's fighting style is very straightforward, without the slightest unnecessary concealment.

Having reached such a level, Elusia may have already reached the peak of Rank 8, or even broken through to Rank 9, and could rival the Demon Lord of Tricks.

In this way, even General Caster wouldn't be a match for her. And even if he fought with all his might, he wouldn't be able to inflict any real damage on her...

Not to mention, she has many equally enigmatic companions around her.

There was an orange-haired woman who kept pretending to be a puppy, but Hoffa sensed that she was watching him all the time, waiting for him to make a move.

Is that Princess Cecilu with the silver hair? She actually managed to set aside her pride and cooperate so skillfully with her sister.

Seriously, that's amazing...

Faced with so many enemies, the chances of winning are now almost zero.

But if I were to be defeated, then what would happen next...?

"This is the only way."

Hofa took a deep breath and walked into the distance.

-------------------------

……

"cheers!"

"Cheers! Cheers! []~(￣▽￣)~*"

The sound of glasses clinking could be heard from the restaurant of the Time Shuttle.

Many delicious foods were laid out on the table, including sizzling steaks, salad dressings, and royal desserts made by Princess Cecilu. They were absolutely delicious!

The girls clinked glasses with each other, celebrating this moment of victory.

Lonnies and Izumi-senpai were happily eating plates of cheese while leaning over the table, and Su Ling was even singing and raising a glass with Elusia in celebration.

Although the atmosphere was very harmonious, Zhou Mixue was incredibly worried inside!

Because the enemy hasn't been completely defeated yet.

Why are they opening champagne at halftime?!

This is disrespectful to the enemy, and it's setting a flag for the future.

Moreover, Elusia had gathered everyone in the restaurant for a gathering, leaving the cockpit empty... The ship was on autopilot and unable to detect the enemy's situation immediately.

Therefore, Zhou Mixue really wanted to go to the driver's seat and take on the responsibility of warning everyone.

but……

"Senior Zhou Mixue, don't leave!"

"Ouch!"

Before Zhou Mixue could even leave her seat, her skirt was grabbed by Elusia.

This little girl not only took the opportunity to rub her senior's thigh, but also said rather arrogantly, "The party isn't over yet, it would be so boring to leave like this."

"what……?"

"After the party, we're going to play board games. Last time I lost to that silly little fox, but I'm definitely not going to lose this time!"

As Elusia spoke, a faint smell of alcohol emanated from her breath.

Hypnotized, Elusia acted like she was drunk, appearing dazed and confused. And now, after being drugged...

That would be even more "overbearing and domineering".

Zhou Mixue was completely under his control and had no way to leave.

"Um, Elusia-junior... I'm a little worried that the enemy might launch a sneak attack."

"A sneak attack?"

"Hmm, they suffered a defeat today, so they'll probably be thinking of launching a surprise attack to turn the tide, right? That's why I want to go and keep watch..."

Zhou Mixue's tone was already pleading, but Elusia shook her head and said:

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

"what?"

"With me this powerful today, those foolish demons would have fled at the mere sight of me. How could they possibly dare to launch a sneak attack?"

"what……"
