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

"Boss, the usual, room number 9."

Elusia handed over the receipt, and at that moment, the burly man scratched his bald head and looked embarrassed: "Um, I'm really sorry, guest, room number 9 is currently unavailable for rent."

"what?!"

Elusia raised her eyebrows, her imposing expression, though not angry, was still intimidating even to the burly man: "Didn't we agree that we'd rent it for a week straight?!"

"Sir, um... yes, there's a leak, and we're working on repairs."

"Hmph, it's already been rented out, hasn't it? How much did they pay?"

"what……"

Knowing he was in the wrong, the owner could only smile apologetically and say, "Ah, it's not that it cost more money, it's just that he had a few... um, situations he couldn't refuse. Oh, by the way, sir, I can rent you room 66. It's currently unoccupied. To express our apologies, we'll give you a 3% discount. Is that alright?"

"Room 66?"

"Yes, it's a very auspicious number, isn't it?"

"Hmph, 1% off."

"Huh? If it's 10% off, we'll lose a lot of money!"

"Then it's 1.1% off, that's the most I can offer."

And so, tonight Lonnies did not go to the familiar room 9 with Elusia, but instead went to room 66.

Lonnie didn't have high hopes, after all, if Room 9 was so dilapidated, then Room 66 must be even more difficult to get into, right?

But at the moment of entry...

"How...how can she be so beautiful!"

Lonnie was stunned, because room 99 was like a presidential suite, not only very large, but also sparkling clean.

The bed is an enormous double bed, and the room is fully equipped with a sofa, a long table, a kitchen, and a living room... and there are even two Velo devices!

(Is it because it's expensive that no one wants to rent it?)

Just as Lonnies was thinking this, Elusia snorted and said, "This room is quite interesting, isn't it?"

"Elcia?"

"Time is running out, Lonnie... We have to register tomorrow and then adjust to the time difference for the exam. So tonight is the last time we'll use the Velo device."

"what?"

"Hurry up, I won't have to do anything this time, right?"

"Um……"

Lonnie blushed and sat down in the "electric chair".

Having used it so many times, the silver-haired girl already knew what the belt on the electric chair was for... its main purpose was to protect the user.

Since consciousness resides in the virtual world, the physical body in the real world might react in response to stress, potentially causing the Levi device to malfunction unexpectedly. Therefore, restraining the user's limbs is an essential measure.

Elusia, on the other hand, walked over to Lonnies, who was already tied to a chair, and looked at the silver-haired girl with great interest.

"Oh~~ It's a little loose here? Tighten it a bit more."

"what?"

"Hmph, as expected, substandard work is really subpar. The belts here are already worn out... Sigh, I guess I'll just have to reluctantly reinforce them again."

Although she said it was "reluctantly," Elusia hummed a little tune and took out a roll of hemp rope from her storage ring.

"A... Elusia?"

"Hehe, Lonnie, look how much I care about you! I was afraid you'd hurt yourself, so I specially prepared a 20-meter-long rope~"

"No, that..."

"Lonnies, you're happy too, aren't you? (You're not allowed to be unhappy.)"

"Woooo..."

Although nominally it's for my own safety.

But actually, there's absolutely no need for so many ropes, is there?

Lonnie lowered her head and looked at her body, which was tightly bound by a 20-meter-long rope. She was reminded of the zongzi (sticky rice dumplings) of the Dragon Boat Festival in her previous life... No, even the rope on the zongzi didn't have so many knots.

However, there were more than a dozen sturdy knots on her thighs, below her chest, on her lower abdomen, and around her neck, causing Lonnie to feel a wave of shame whenever she tried to move.

"Elusia, why...why are there so many ropes tied around your neck?"

"Of course, it's for your safety, okay?"

"what?"

"This Velo device is probably not clean... to put it simply, someone may have died here."

"Someone died there?!"

"Yes, some people get really into using the Vilo device and might die while using it. If they die in the virtual world, a part of their consciousness will remain in the life support device and turn into a monster to attack those who come after them... So no matter how luxuriously this room is decorated, no one will want to use it."

"????"

"However, our maid Lonnies was, after all, a heroine who saved the world in her past life. In the virtual world, dealing with suddenly appearing terrifying monsters should be a piece of cake, right?"

"!"

Lonnie was stunned. Suddenly she realized... this was a golden opportunity to prove herself!

After all, although her physical body had become that of a girl, her mental state remained unchanged: in the virtual world, as long as she wasn't afraid or felt fear, no monster could inflict any real harm on her.

and so……

"Elcia, watch my performance!"

"Oh, you seem very confident!"

"Of course, hurry up and put the helmet on me."

"No, before that, should I correct your form of address? You seem to have a bit of a lack of manners..."

"Master Elusia, please put the helmet on me QAQ."

Seeing the remote control that Elusia was holding up, Lonnies gave in before the battle even began.

(It really is different, isn't it?)

Unlike the blank world before, as soon as Lonnies' consciousness entered the virtual world, she saw a very lush castle.

It stands atop the mountain peak, its entire body pitch black.

Dark clouds rolled across the sky, and thunder rumbled intermittently.

Lonnie looked around and found herself standing on a weed-covered path, with the castle gates right in front of her.

"It seems there aren't any monsters around. And this sky is so strange, why is it a deep purple?"

This scene inevitably reminded Lonnie of some games she had played in her previous life: such as Dark Souls, Dante, and the Castlevania series. They liked to set the beginning of the game in places like this, firstly to make players instinctively feel fear, and secondly to create a sense of immersion, making players feel like they were a hero.

Lonnies doesn't need to "feel" like she's a hero, because she "is" a hero.

"O spirit of Augunis, answer my call and grant me strength!"

When she was a hero, Lonnies used this method to summon strange powers, and the situation now was no different from what she expected. A white light blade appeared in her hand.

Just as Lonnies was about to conjure the armor, she discovered a problem.

My body is still that of a girl!

No matter how much Lonnie wanted to become a magnificent boy, even to the point of kneading her chest, she was still a shapely girl in this world.

With her long, silvery-white hair and milk-like skin, everything about her was exactly the same as Lonnie's appearance in the real world.

"Ugh... Damn it? Is it impossible to change one's own appearance?"

Lorne pouted, resigned to her fate, and began the trial of the hero, using a female body with great "dissatisfaction."

Chapter 19 The Young Heroine Who Didn't Want to Be Defeated

It's one thing to only be able to use a female body, after all, Lonnie used to be a "materialist" and knew that the spirit cannot exist apart from the material.

But what's with this solidified armor on my body?

Who would wear armor like that?!

Lonnie blushed. Although her armor was made of metal, only her wrists, forearms, ankles, calves, waist, and lower chest were covered by it.

Besides, one's real weaknesses, such as the arms and upper arms, upper chest and neck, and shoulders, are exposed!

Even more bizarrely, she was wearing a pleated miniskirt with absolutely no defense, and black over-the-knee stockings tightly clung to her thighs, and on top of that was the absolute territory that any man would covet.

……

How can you fight dressed like that!

Although Lonnie's previous little dress, Pure White Love, was quite embarrassing... that outfit was still a normal, gorgeous dress, and it would be appropriate to wear it to a banquet.

But why is this kind of armor only worn by the female protagonist of some strange game?

(Wait a minute, some kind of game?)

Lonnie paused, then it dawned on her. For most people, the Levi device was meant for amusement.

But if the content of this entertainment is actually some kind of strange game...

What will become of me?

……

Boom!

With a loud crash, the castle gates were flung open.
