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

And how could Elusia not sense the little maid's thoughts? She said this after giving Baiye a light massage.

"Hmm, little hero maid, sit over here too, and stretch your tail out."

"what?"

"Since the little fox's fur is so soft, I'll reluctantly give you both a massage!"

Lonnies was pulled onto a chair by Elusia and her fur was gently wiped.

Chapter 62 The Dark Figure

After the massage, Lonnie's cheeks were flushed as she walked out of the greenhouse with Elusia.

Although Elusia's movements were indeed gentle, the feeling of being held by the girl and shaken around was really strange.

"Hmph~ The little idiot's big tail feels so comfortable. It's so soft, just like its owner, who's so silly."

"Waaah..."

"So, where is the little fool going next?"

"Hmm... Shall we go check on Princess Cecilu and the others? It seems... Princess Cecilu has been quite busy lately."

"Yes, Cecily is adjusting the magic synchronizer."

"what?

"I'll go and see if there's anything I can do to help."

……

……

The Land of the End is truly a very large underground ruin.

A rough estimate suggests that several thousand staff members could work here, so even though there are quite a few girls, most of the place is still empty once they are dispersed.

……

The Magic Synchronizer is located on the lowest floor of the entire research center.

Even Lonnie herself had never been here before; all she could see was a dilapidated and ruined landscape.

To save energy, many intersection lights were not turned on. Overturned signs lay scattered on the ground, and there was a lot of broken glass, but there was no time to clean it up.

"It feels a bit deserted... Is Princess Cecilu up ahead?"

"Hmm. We won't need most of the devices here on this trip, except for this magic synchronizer, which requires someone to operate."

……

Activating the Dark Abyss replication device naturally requires the input of magic.

Although magic crystals can provide a large amount of basic magic power, they still need to be controlled by a girl with profound magic power—and there is no one more suitable than a half-human, half-demon princess.

Therefore, Cecily spends most of her time working here, and due to the shortage of manpower, only the guard Nalonate accompanies her on this entire floor.

But no one expected...

……

"What, Nana, you just said that a shadow suddenly appeared over here..."

"Yes, I was worried that some demon had broken in, so I tried to catch it. But when I chased after it, it had already disappeared!"

Although the sword and shield guard, who was a little girl, was reporting in an orderly manner, her eyes were filled with anxiety.

"Waaah..."

"Princess Cecilu, should we report this matter to Senior Elusia?"

"The senior seems a bit disappointed. If possible, I think it's better if we handle it ourselves... Nana, go expand the patrol area, at least find some clues."

“But if that’s the case, Princess Cecilu will be left without anyone to protect her.”

"It doesn't matter, I am also a princess of the Clotia family. Ordinary enemies could not possibly harm me."

……

……

Just as the two were talking, Lonnies and Elusia arrived together.

"Huh, Senior Elusia...why are you all here?"

Cecilia was taken aback, quite surprised by Elcia's visit.

"That silly little hero Lonnie wanted to visit you, so we came together—it seems we've come at just the right time!"

"Ah, that..."

"It's alright, Princess Cecilu. You and Nana can focus on your work here. Lonnie and I will go investigate. Whatever happened, everyone should feel much more at ease now, right?"

"Okay, Nana, tell Senior Elusia and Princess Hero what you saw."

"Well, it's like this..."

Lonnies heard the whole story from Naronat.

It turned out that because the light was so dim, even Naronat couldn't make out the figure's appearance.

Whether it is male or female, fat or thin, is completely unknown.

Naronat only felt herself being stared at, but when she looked up, she only saw a blur—the other person seemed to have run away, and although Naronat chased after them, she found no trace of them.

Logically speaking, this is impossible.

Because Naronat is an extremely skilled sword and shield guard, unless it is a demon lord of the level of Candel, she would never lose track of her target.

…………

……

"Hmm, this is the area where Nana spotted the figure. Silly girl, do you sense anything?"

"Feel……?"

"Yeah, did you ever feel a chill down your spine, like someone was staring at you?"

"This...how could this be? There's no one around...wait, wait?!"

Lonnie was about to deny it outright when she suddenly felt a chill run down her spine.

Although it wasn't bone-chillingly cold, the feeling was like being stared at by a middle-aged man with ill intentions while wearing a light maid outfit—it looked rather ominous.

and so……

……

"Elusia, there seems to be someone here!"

"Hmm, where is that?"

"It should be behind me, no... that's not right!"

Lonnie looked behind her, but all she saw was an empty wall, with no one in sight.

Even more terrifying, after Lonnie turned around, she found another chill rising from behind her.

but……

How is this possible?

These are two completely opposite areas. Even if someone is secretly watching you, how could you move so fast?

Therefore, Lonnie dared not delay any longer and immediately summoned her Rainbow Abyss weapon:

"Who is it? Who's there! Come out now!"

Strangely enough, the chill disappeared after Lonnies summoned the Shield of Ember.

This shows that...

Has that figure already left?

Or was he afraid after seeing his Rainbow Abyss weapon?

wrong!

The key issue now is that someone has indeed infiltrated the Land of the End! He must be an enemy spy, so we absolutely cannot let him leave.

and so……

"Don't even think about running away!"

Lonnies, wielding the Shield of Ember and the Frost Dagger, charged into the darkness!

Although she knew she might not be able to defeat such a spy, Elusia was right behind her. As a hero, she had to set an example and show her wife her courage as a man!

but……

Perhaps Lornish was rushing too hard and didn't watch where she was going.

So much so that her foot slipped, and she fell forward!

"Ooh!"

"Ugh, how stupid~"

Although she said Lonnies was clumsy, as her master, Elusia would never let her little maid fall down.

So the black-haired girl strode forward and instantly grabbed Lonnie's big tail, pulling her into her arms.

"Your Highness, please watch where you're going. If you fall to your death in the passageway, you'll become a laughingstock and be posthumously dubbed the Hero Who Fell Off Flat."

"Ugh... But! Elcia, don't worry about me now. Catching that spy is the most important thing!"

"spy?"

"Yes, she must be a demon spy who came to eavesdrop on our intelligence. Elusia, we absolutely cannot let her leave alive!"

"Hmph, I didn't expect the little fox to be so stupid! Everyone has been patrolling and fighting at the entrance, how could a spy have slipped in?"
