Chapter 221 – Unfathomable Maid

Although Caesar didn’t know why Anderson was here, but no matter what, it was too strange… was it a hallucination? Or some kind of trap?

“Prince Caesar… I’ve seen you before.” Anderson smiled and looked at him, “That year when I attended Susanna’s funeral, you were still a child and crying nonstop while hugging your older brother, hehe.”

“W-what? You attended my moth’s funeral?”

Caesar furrowed his brows, what he said next shocked him.

“You must miss her a lot, right, so let me send you to her.”

Anderson chuckled and then there was a loud rumbling sound.

The ground in the depths of the cave suddenly collapsed and then there was a terrifying roar like something was going to come out.

“That’s?”

Elena finally realized the danger.

Her perception skills were extremely limited within the remains, and she didn’t notice the scary monster until the ground collapsed.

Yes, the thing coming out was…

“Caesar… w-what i-is that!?” Rosie trembled and grabbed onto Caesar’s arm.

They’ve never seen such a horrifying monster? Demonic beast? No, it looked nothing like it, it didn’t even look like a living creature!

A large towering body with four sturdy limbs. It had an ugly appearance, its body was incomparably warped, like a body composed of different bodies. It rushed to the surface with a wave of strange howls.

“Lesser Devils!?” Elena exclaimed.

It wasn’t the first time she’s seen those hideous monsters, it was those that drove her out of the Forest of the End.

However, the ones before her seemed weaker than those from before, although it was several men tall, it didn’t seem as powerful. If she could turn back right now, she could easily defeat them!

Though it may be a piece of cake for the Demon King, it wasn’t so for the other two.

These Lesser Devils were probably around sixth-level, if they met head-on, even Caesar wouldn’t have an advantage and it was undoubtedly a powerful combat force.

“This was originally the secret base we used to create Lesser Devils, but you guys ended up choosing this place as your competition grounds, so I had to come over and help.”

Anderson was talking to himself, the tens of Lesser Devils all came out and spread out in a row next to Anderson, like they were awaiting his orders.

“Anderson, what do you want?” Caesar clenched his teeth and sternly questioned while enduring his impulse to escape.

“Nothing, I just want to finish off all you geniuses selected for the academy tournament.”

In the past, this archbishop’s smile has always been so affable, but it just looked sinister to Rosie right now!

“To finish off the geniuses?”

“That’s right. In the future, perhaps one of you will become a hero, but now, you’re just weak students… as long as I finish you off, then there won’t be any annoying people to get in the way! The Venus society’s scared plan will continue unobstructed!”

“Venus society?”

“Haha, of course, you ordinary people wouldn’t know… but it doesn’t matter, you just have to obediently present your life for our mission!” Anderson laughed out loud, his gaze suddenly filled with madness.

“You lunatic…”

Caesar and Rosie looked at each other, although they didn’t what the Venus society was, but they knew that Anderson was planning to use them as guinea pigs!

“Run!”

Caesar didn’t bother trying to be cool in crucial moments, he grabbed Rosie and ran!

Although he liked fighting, this wasn’t the time for that, it was evident that he couldn’t deal with those monsters and could only run.

But he underestimated their power.

“Go, finish all of them off!”

As soon as Anderson ordered them, the tens of Lesser Devils all began to move! Their bodies shot out like a bullet and they ran frantically towards Caesar. They become speechless after seeing a monster with such a large and heavy monster move with such an astonishing speed.

“Caesar, they’re coming!” Rosie shrieked.

“Damn!”

Before they even got a couple of steps away, Caesar noticed the monster rushing towards them and was forced to meet it head-on.

“Undulating blade, thunder wind slash!”

The dark red sword was unsheathed, he held the sword with both hands, yelled as he gathered his fighting aura and swung.

In that instant, the berserk thunderous energy shot forward like a magic cannon, the fierce winds and electricity engulfed the enemy in front of them.

There were three Lesser Devils that charged towards Caesar, the leading one leaped straight into his sword aura and its huge body instantly burnt into charcoal. Its warped body loosened, and it dropped to the ground as a pile of flesh.

As expected of a rarely seen magic swordsman! His fusion techniques showed devastating power and instakilled a tough-looking monster.

But this wasn’t a one on one fight.

Although the first Lesser Devil fell, the other two showed no signs of stopping. Their companion dying didn’t affect them at all and they still charged toward Caesar without any regard for their life.

“Damn monsters, die!”

As they were about to be hit, Rosie touched her ring… along with a slight distortion of space, several scrolls appeared within her hands.

The scrolls were torn, magic gathered and a study magic shield and a strong thunderous explosion appeared, stopping the monsters right before they flattened them and saved their lives.

But it still wasn’t over.

“What?”

The third Lesser Devil was a beat slow and attacked from another angle the instant the magic disappeared.

Its large body obstructed their vision, the monster’s arm was even thicker than Rosie’s waist. If it hit them, then it would definitely smash them to pieces.

“Rosie, hold on tight!”

Caesar just used his undulating blade and couldn’t use it again within such a short period of time so he chose to avoid it.

He grabbed Rosie’s waist and leaped, brushing right past the monster’s arm and landing to the other side.

“W-what are these monsters? Why is Anderson trying to kill us!” She hugged Caesar and was almost crying.

She had thought they could win by coming to the silver vault, but she wouldn’t even dream that they would fall into someone’s trap, meeting a bunch of scary monsters and almost getting flattened!

The ups and downs of life were just way too intense.

But that wasn’t even all.

Anderson ordered the remaining Lesser Devils to join the fight and quickly surrounded Caesar. Although they looked hideous, they weren’t just blindly charging and had some semblance of cooperation, which was extremely troublesome.

If they were just brainless monsters, then Caesar could still use some tricks to escape, but they actually knew how to cooperate. Some responsible for advancing and others for intercepting, just like a trained team. How are these monsters anymore?

“Caesar, watch out!”

While Caesar was dazed out, the monsters were already in front of them!

In order to survive, Rosie couldn’t worry about it anymore. She continuously withdrew her magic scrolls and tried to finish off these terrifying monsters. But fifth-level magic was too weak and could only delay them not kill them.

“Hu… huu…”

During that time, Caesar panted and grasped his sword again.

Thanks to this sword, it greatly amplified his power, but the consumption was exhausting.

He didn’t know how long he could hold on for, but he had to endure.

“Undulating blade… thunder wind slash!”

Once again, the dazzling light filled the dim cave and two Lesser Devils were instantly engulfed. They thought they could break through that gap, but Caesar noticed that before the electricity even disappeared, another Lesser Devil already approached!

“Caesar!”

The huge hand landed square on Caesar and sent him flying along with his sword like a kite.

Rosie was shedding tears and frantically tearing magic scrolls but couldn’t escape the same fate.

It wasn’t a slap that was anything special, but it shattered her magic shield and she was sent flying and landed next to Caesar by the entrance of the cave and passed out.

Now, the only people left were Elena and Anderson.

No, rather one person, since Elena isn’t a human.

“What a charming maid. Your name is Elena… is it?”

“You know me?”

“Hehe, I don’t know you, but I’m very interested in you… you dodged the aftereffects of the explosions from earlier with some inconspicuous dodges, that wasn’t a coincidence, right?” Anderson squinted as he asked.

Caesar and Rosie were in the heat of battle, yet she stood at the side while dodging at times to avoid getting involved. Her strength was fathomless.

“I really want to know how you did it Elena… can you please become my experimentation material? If I can bring you back, I’ll surely be rewarded!”

“Experimentation material?”

“Yes, I don’t know what will happen if a high-level demon is used to make a Lesser Devil… what do you think, miss beautiful red-eyed black cat?”
