Chapter 99: Cuteness Is Nothing Compared to Sexiness
“Hah! Damn it! How could it end up like this…”
Gilbaris looked at the remnants of the Headquarters, angrily slamming his fist on the ground. Despite being stationed here, not only had the enemy rescued their captive, but the Headquarters had also been destroyed. How was he supposed to face Diablo and Titan now?
“No way. It’s still possible to chase them down and bring them back. Huh?”
Just as Gilbaris opened the Teleportation Gate to pursue, Diablo and Titan flew in from the other side of the door.
“Diablo? Titan? What the hell happened to you both? How did you get beaten up like this?”
Seeing the wounds on his comrades, Gilbaris decisively abandoned his pursuit mission to care for them instead, asking about their condition.
“Sorry, Gilbaris, we got smashed by the Ice Dragon King and were tossed back like trash.”
Titan recounted their encounter, admitting they were no match for the Ice Dragon King and had returned after being brutally beaten. He felt he had no face to show Gilbaris.
“The Ice Dragon King? Didn’t we injure him badly together? How the heck did he beat you two like this?”
“I’m not exactly sure, but I can say for certain that the Ice Dragon King was not injured. It’s like he was healed back to peak condition.”
“Alright, stop talking. I’m taking you both back to the treatment chamber right now. Just hang in there.”
Gilbaris hoisted both of them and flew towards the treatment chamber.
For the Chaos Clan, this was a true humiliation. All three leaders were injured, and their Headquarters was in ruins. Sooner or later, he would make them pay back this debt.
Meanwhile, Gaia and the others returned to the Royal Palace to meet up with Yake and the rest.
“Hey, Yake. We’re back.”
“Glad to see you safe. I always believed Aier would make it back.”
“Ahaha, but I’m sorry you had to see me in such a sorry state.”
Aierjisi, beaten by Gilbaris, had no intact flesh on her body. Feeling bashful to appear like this in front of Yake was inevitable.
“Maybe so. But it’s alright. Just you being back is enough for me. Come on, let’s get some rest. Do you want me to give you a foot massage?”
Yake picked up Aierjisi and headed toward their room.
“Oh yes, definitely. I’ve been wanting to try one of your foot massages! I heard from Reina that your massages are quite comfortable. Please let me experience it.”
“Sure, sure. But you have to wash up first.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll finish my bath soon.”
As Aierjisi and Yake chatted, they went upstairs to their room.
“Are you Ailin? This should be our first meeting, right? Especially in this world, looking like this.”
Weirafiya greeted Ailin, noting that this was likely their first encounter since arriving in this world.
“Ah, hello. Nice to meet you, um… who are you again?”
Ailin seemed to not remember much about Weirafiya. She hadn’t been too interested in this character in the game, and now, face-to-face, she didn’t know what to say.
“Pfft. Wait, you’re a player, right? How could you not know me? Didn’t you play through the game and come to this world?”
Hearing that the other party didn’t recognize her made Weirafiya almost choke on her own saliva. What was going on?
“Ah… I’m sorry. It’s just that I’ve been here for too long. I’ve pretty much forgotten everything about the game. If I offended you earlier, please forgive me.”
Ailin realized her earlier words might have struck Weirafiya hard, so she hurriedly apologized.
“Ah, well… never mind, I’ll reintroduce myself. My name is Weirafiya, and I’m a Phoenix. Like you, I’m also from Earth.”
Weirafiya couldn’t bring herself to be angry with Ailin’s attitude. She had to reintroduce herself again.
“Oh! So you’re also from Earth! Nice to meet you! I hope we can get along well from now on.”
Ailin shook Weirafiya’s hand, trying to leave a good impression.
“Ah, yes… let’s get along.”
Weirafiya was momentarily stumped on how to respond to such a polite dragon princess.
“I have something to attend to, so I’ll excuse myself. I hope you two enjoy your stay here.”
After greeting Weirafiya, Ailin turned to support Gaia and walked together toward the Royal Palace.
“Ah… why won’t my daughter talk to me? By the way, Phoenix, what do you mean by ‘fellow Earthling’ with her?”
After being ignored by Ailin earlier, the Ice Dragon King now dramatically fell to the floor, letting out a pitiful wail. Why? Why didn’t his daughter talk to him just now?
“That’s a long story, but it’s probably best if you don’t know, Ice Dragon King. Let’s go rest, Arthur. I need some sweets to replenish my sugar levels. Any recommendations?”
“I recommend the strawberry cake from Sijiq.”
“Sounds good, let’s go with that today.”
Weirafiya ignored the Ice Dragon King and returned to her room to rest with Arthur.
“Long time no see, Ice Dragon King…”
“Mm? That raspy voice, who are you?”
Hearing that familiar voice, the Ice Dragon King turned his head, looking at the figure before him.
“Has it been about 300 years?”
Carl looked at the kneeling Ice Dragon King and extended his hand.
“Carl?! You’re still alive?! I heard you disappeared from this world 300 years ago and thought you were dead! I can’t believe you’re still alive and well!”
Seeing his old friend, the Ice Dragon King grasped his hand and stood up.
“Well, that’s a long story. We should find a place to catch up. By the way, was that just now your daughter? She’s quite attractive, but still not as cute as my Aierjisi.”
“Hey! What do you mean by that? Just look at how sexy my Ailin is! In front of that sexy figure, your daughter’s cuteness doesn’t hold a candle!”
The Ice Dragon King countered without backing down. Carl could tease him all he wanted, but if anyone spoke ill of his daughter, that was a different story.
