Chapter 62

Adelaide smiled and looked at Shavarma. Shavarma literally had an expression like he was about to sh*t. His face was so red that if you put a kettle on it, water would boil.

He commanded his subordinate in a voice that contained his anger.

“Bring that Durahan.”

“That’s a given. You said you’d give us one more, right?”

Shavarma suddenly trembled. He didn’t think that they were going to lose so he didn’t care too much about the deal Mierda had promised. After all, they were going to take her and her demons anyway! What else was that greedy bitch trying to get!

Shavarma clenched his fists tightly. His short nails dug into the flesh of his palms. The pain was nothing compared to the burn of losing all his elites.

“Hmm… Who should I take?…”

Adelaide took her time teasing him. Chrrk, Shavarma gritted his teeth. Hearing this, she smirked and continued.

“Oh, I want your son.”

“…What?”

Shavarma asked. He wanted to think he was mistaken even though he heard her perfectly.

Adelaide raised her chin and smiled prettily as she shattered his last hope.

“Your son, Mierda. He’s the strongest after you, right?”

Shavarma wasn’t the only one surprised by her declaration. Go Il, who had vowed to look at her in a positive way in the future, opened his mouth in surprise, and even Lisianthus, who put away the cup she drank from, widened his eyes and stared at her.

‘That viciousness that proudly declared she would take his child away! This is a person who could become the Demon King!’ Go Il thought.

‘It’s an unexpected choice…Well, it’s not bad either.’

Lisianthus nodded. In fact, he would have been fine with whatever choice she made.

“This…This evil…!”

Shavarma pointed at Adelaide. A hissing sound came out of his mouth, like something was scratching his throat.

Adelaide snorted. ‘Who is saying who’s evil now? Haven’t you thought of what you’ve done? How ridiculous.’

“W-Will you take the Durahan and Mierda with you?”

Go Il asked, trying to ignore Shavarma’s gaze.

Hearing Adelaide’s words from afar, Caladium grabbed Mierda’s hair again and pulled him up to the podium. The demons of Sol Dungeon screamed in shock at Mierda’s miserable appearance.

A demon with healing power followed and performed healing on Mierda, but it had no effect as it was a wound from a devil. Only the small scratches healed, but his tongue did not regenerate.

“Mierda!”

Shavarma who was stunned, approached him. He didn’t know the extent of Mierda’s injuries because the screen was off.

“Ugh, gross.”

Adelaide was nauseous. The sight of blood gushing out of his open mouth was so hideous that she couldn’t even look at it.

She spoke her words with dignity, covering her mouth with her hand.

“I can’t take him either. It’s so weak that I have no use for it. Besides, it’s ugly.”

“You bi-…!”

“Give me the harpy instead.”

Adelaide interrupted Shavarma with a playful tone. Then his face, which was already red, became even more red. He turned his feet towards her and glared.

‘That’s who you wanted from the beginning…!’

She had planned to take the harpy from the beginning but deliberately threatened to take his son. At the thought of being fooled by a succubus b*tch like her, his anger grew. He felt like his throat was on fire.

He wanted to tear off the b*tch’s limbs right away. However, the person who had brought Mierda, the demon who was most likely the devil, was staring at him. His gut told him that he would die the moment he stretched out his hand.

He couldn’t see his horns because he was wearing a hat, but he was able to grasp the superiority of his strength just by the energy that leaked out from him. So he bit his molars tightly and suppressed his impulse.

It wasn’t easy because he had never been the underdog. However, as a demon who had lived for a long time, he knew that he would not be able to take revenge if he acted hastily at this moment.

“…Bring the harpy!”

“Y-Yes!”

The demon who had just brought Raham left quickly. He wanted to get out of the angry Shavarma’s immediate vicinity, so he walked away very fast.

“Raham!”

Adelaide smiled brightly and approached Raham. He stood crookedly in front of Adelaide. Unfortunately, his legs have yet to fully regenerate so his body was leaning to one side.

“Adelaide.”

“You’ve been through a lot. It’s over now, so you can rest.”

“What the dungeon master just said…”

The end of his voice trembled. He seemed to have heard Shavarma’s voice.

Adelaide smiled brightly and nodded her head.

“Pia will be here soon. Let’s go to Greenville together.”

“You really have nothing to worry about now.” She added kindly.

Drop. Something fell from the air.

Thick water droplets. It was Raham’s tears.

“I…Thank you. Thank you so much…”

Raham wept bitterly. The demon who did not cry even after being tortured wept like a child.

Adelaide bit her lip at the sight. She was doing her best to be strong, pretending to be a cool dungeon master, and now she was about to burst into tears.

“Raham! You really did well!”

“Huuu, Raham…!”

The large Durahans gathered around Raham and they all cried together. Raham took their hands and continued to thank them.

“Y-You guys crying over things like this…”

Caladium grumbled like it was nothing. However, his eyes were too moist when he said that.

‘This will be the Dungeon Newspaper’s front page.’

Meanwhile, Go Il flew around like a pro filming this touching scene. Even Shavarma, who knelt in front of the fallen Mierda and glared at Adelaide with scorching eyes, was a perfect photo. It was a pity that the handsome demons kept hiding their faces though. How could they hide their faces so well that they avoided every single shot? Go Il smacked his lips with regret.

Soon after, the demon, who went to pick up Pia, came back with a rough grip on her wrist.

‘What the hell!’

When Adelaide raised her eyes terrifyingly, the demon quickly let go of her hand. ‘What’s wrong with him grabbing the Heavenly creature’s wrist like that!’ The feeling of unfairness was evident in both her eyes.

“Pia.”

“Raham…!”

Pia’s pretty face was colored with joy. As she was about to run to Raham, Shavarma blocked her way.

“Yes, well done.”

He said in a calmer voice. Then he turned his back to Pia and stared at Adelaide.

“Right now, it’s a victory reward. I hope I won’t see you in front of me in the future b*tch.”

“Why don’t you rest in the arms of evil spirits now that you’re old? Stop talking nonsense.”

Adelaide responded confidently. Now that her demons were by her side, she had nothing to fear.

It was all over now. As soon as the tension was relieved, Shavarma moved.

He was the owner of a C-Class dungeon and a person who owned many high level demons. He was a demon who always reigned at the top, but became weak in front of Caladium. His movements were so fast that Adelaide couldn’t keep up. Unfortunately, Caladium, who focused only on Adelaide’s safety, could not completely stop him.

Chwak!

For a moment, time seemed to pass slowly.

Eyelashes covered with red drops of blood slowly moved up and down. The Durahans were frozen at the horrifying sight, and Raham’s injured feet rushed forward. Pia’s slender body slowly tilted.

“Pia!”

Raham’s scream awakened Adelaide’s mind.

Shavarma attacked Pia.

Adelaide’s face turned white when she realized this.

“I-Is she-…”

‘Is she dead?’ She trembled as she couldn’t finish her words. Her heart was beating so loudly that she could not speak. Her breathing sped up and her eyes rolled to the back of her head.

It was always the same type of demons who made her this way.

“Master Adele!”

Lisianthus’ strong hands supported her. Soon, his sweet voice reassured her.

“It’s okay. She’s not dead. Calm down and breathe slowly.”

Only then could she breathe.

Adelaide grabbed Lisianthus’ firm arms and exhaled a rough breath. She lifted her head to check the situation. Little by little, her breathing became easier thanks to the warm hand patting her back.

“Pia, Pia…!”

As Lisianthus said, Pia did not die. It was thanks to Caladium’s belated move and pulling Pia’s body.

However, the distance between Pia and Shavarma was too close so she could not completely avoid his attack. He attempted to cut her head in half so he still did damage to her eyes and the bridge of her nose.

Blood gushed out of her beautiful eyes. Raham urgently tried to stop the bleeding by pressing the wound with a cloth, but it was obvious that she would go blind.

“You…!”

Adelaide gritted her teeth as she glared at Shavarma as if she was to kill him. Shavarma, drenched in the energy of Caladium, said with a chuckle as if he was satisfied even though he couldn’t get up.

“Oh my, that was a mistake.”

“This m*therf*cker…!”

Adelaide couldn’t contain her anger and ran to him. Lisianthus stopped her.

“You can’t.”

He shook his head slowly.

The dungeon master hurting his monster right before he handed them over was different from attacking another dungeon master. Now that everything was being filmed with the video stone, if Adelaide attacked Shavarma due to his provocation, the problem would grow.

“Still…!”

“Master. No.”

Lisianthus gripped her again. Just as Adelaide was about to tell him to let go, his whisper pounded her head like a lightning.

“Right now, you can’t.”

Golden eyes filled her vision. At first glance, they looked calm, but the deeper she looked, the more they looked hot, like boiling molten iron. The warmth calmed Adelaide’s troubled mind.

Adelaide straightened her body, which had been curled in anger. She then calmly looked at Shavarma, and said in a cold, subdued voice.

“…I will remember this mistake well.”

Shavarma’s body flinched. He didn’t know what the devil would do after. But still, his vengeance outweighed fear, so he snorted with excitement.

He was the one who enslaved thousands of demons and sold torture as entertainment, but ironically, he could not bear his anger at his son’s suffering.

Adelaide headed to the portal with her demons after instructing them to summon someone with healing powers. She, as well as Raham and Pia, were no longer a spectacle for the crowd.

The portal of Greenville Dungeon was completely closed, and the long dungeon match was over.

At the last moment, only the reporters of the Dungeon Newspaper and the audience were happy.
