Chapter 704 : The Boy and Girl in the Night Sky
The wind howled past his ears.
When Felyn opened his eyes, he found himself and Eitani in mid-air, plummeting rapidly.
The teleportation magic had sent them directly outside the dungeon, into the night sky above Seyva.
The moon was close, so close that Felyn felt he could reach out and touch it.
The river of stars in the night sky reflected on Eitani's face, making her appear even more gentle and beautiful.
"Eitani! Where did you bring me?!"
This was the second time tonight Felyn had experienced the sensation of free-falling from a great height.
"Eitani?!"
The Eitani in his arms didn't respond.
She bit her lip, her shoulders trembled slightly, and her eyelashes drooped, hiding her brown eyes.
Eitani didn't say a word.
She was embarrassed.
Just now, in front of Seraphina, she couldn't hold back for a moment and blurted out, "Felyn is mine."
So embarrassing!
"Don't be shy at a time like this! Can't you pay attention to the timing!" Felyn patted Eitani's back, trying to snap her out of it.
In about ten more seconds, I'm going to be a goner!
"I-I'm not shy," Eitani forced herself to say, finally lifting her head to give Felyn a full view of her pink-flushed face.
Your face is that red, and you still say you're not shy?!
"Are we just going to fall like this? Aren't you going to hurry up and use some teleportation magic or something..." Felyn's words slowly trailed off.
Eitani gazed at the night view of Seyva on the ground below, somewhat lost in thought.
"So beautiful..."
"Human cities are most beautiful at night. Since there is no sun, humans create their own suns," Felyn said, looking at the city's night sky with Eitani.
"The dungeon doesn't have a sun either."
Felyn suddenly thought that if he said, "With you here, the dungeon has a sun," he could probably call it a night.
But he still couldn't bring himself to say it.
"Felyn, let's go play there tomorrow, okay?" she said, pointing to a place in Seiwa and turning to look at Felyn.
Her fiery red hair flew wildly in the air, leaving her smile completely uncovered.
"Do you know where that is?"
"I don't know." Eitani shook her head.
The wind was loud, and the strong airflow forced them to raise their voices to be heard.
"I don't know, but... you'll go with me tomorrow. As long as you're with me..."
An unknown world, a familiar person, this was the world of an adventurer.
"Huh? What did you say?"
Eitani hugged Felyn a little tighter, squeezing out the moonlight between them until there were no gaps left.
"Nothing! Hahahahaha..."
Tonight was a full moon.
Everything was perfect.
Everything had gone as she wished.
However, things were not over yet.
After Eitani and Felyn landed, they once again used teleportation magic to return to the caves of the dungeon.
Seraphina and the others had been thrown off by Eitani's feint and had already run outside the dungeon to search for her, so they weren't here.
"There's still some cleanup work to do."
According to Eitani, this was where more than half of Seyva's Morning Stars were stored.
Felyn wasn't so kind as to leave all these things for others.
Having come all this way, it would be a bit unreasonable not to make a fortune.
On the dim walls, human shadows danced chaotically.
The sound of footsteps echoed continuously in the narrow passage, causing anyone who heard it to unconsciously slow their breathing.
This was already the deepest part of the cave, and also the most heavily guarded area.
The light from illumination spells dispelled the surrounding darkness, providing excellent visibility in this most secure room.
The Second Prince, Albert, sat in the center of the room, watching his private soldiers and Waldrick's men carry away box after box of Morning Stars.
"With this much, it's enough for our royal family and the Church of Reincarnation to pass the trial. This way, our power will be strengthened in the final Hero's Festival, and winning will be just around the corner."
Albert was in a rather good mood.
Once the final Hero's Festival was filled with his own people, forget about slaying a dragon, he wouldn't lose even if Lianlors herself showed up.
"Waldrick, you have the greatest merit this time. Don't worry, I will ask the higher-ups of the Church of Reincarnation to treat your wife's illness."
"Thank you, Your Highness."
The Morning Stars were prepared to be smuggled to the royal capital district through the dungeon, and Albert had already taken care of the people at the inspection point.
"Have those people who broke in left?"
"Your Highness, my men say they haven't seen them, but it seems they also haven't found that priest from the Church of Reincarnation."
"I can't contact him on my end either, but there probably wasn't any accident. He might have gone for a stroll somewhere. After all, he is a priest."
The priest had already been burned to ash by dragon power, so it was impossible for him to be found.
Albert squinted his eyes, savoring the dawn before victory.
Even if the intruders were still here, he wasn't worried in the slightest.
Because tonight, he had directly brought a whole company of knights, and in addition, there were many members of the Church of Reincarnation secretly dispatched tonight.
These church members were not low-level; they were basically all capable of using fourth-tier or higher divine arts.
No one would be able to reach this room tonight.
Once tonight was over, and he won the Hero's Festival and obtained the divine artifact, the Eye of Reincarnation, Albert would not only gain the honor of winning the Hero's Festival, but the divine artifact in his hands would also allow the Church of Reincarnation to cooperate with him and help him ascend to the throne.
"My lord! Two more people have broken in outside the door!"
Just as Albert was immersed in his fantasy, a guard ran over to report.
"Hmm? Didn't they leave?" Waldrick frowned. "Who are they?"
"One is Fiorella, and the other is the boy who broke in today."
Hearing this, Waldrick's anxious heart settled down.
One was a maid, the other a slightly more capable boy.
No matter, no need to bother with them.
"Just kill them."
"Wait." Albert's interest was piqued. "I'll go see what kind of person this Fiorella is, to make your wife like her so much."
He was idle anyway, so a walk could help pass the time.
Surrounded by guards and knights, the two of them walked out of the room and into a narrow passage.
The way was already blocked by knights with shields. On the other side of the passage were the two people mentioned in the report.
The two of them didn't seem nervous at all, as if they were on an outing to the dungeon.
Albert, who had been looking relaxed, quickly said to Waldrick beside him after getting a clear look at the newcomers, "My eyes are playing tricks on me. Which one is Fiorella?"
Waldrick found it a bit strange. Wasn't there only one woman in front of them?
"It should be the red-haired girl, right?"
"Are you sure?" Albert rubbed his eyes.
"I haven't seen her either. I just ordered my men to kidnap her today. There shouldn't be a mistake."
Albert patted Waldrick's shoulder. "Then you stay here and guard. I'm going back."
"As you command, my lord."
After turning around, Albert's pace quickened considerably.
Good heavens.
What kind of monster did you people kidnap?
You're telling me that's Fiorella?
Isn't that Eitani?! That terrifying daughter of the Demon Lord, the daughter of the Demon Lord who could destroy an empire with one hand
