Chapter 340: The walls are too thin
Eren left his room under the watchful gaze
of those observing him.
As he left his room late at night, several observers were suspicious of his
intentions. Yet, he didn’t stray far. He simply walked over to the adjacent room, where Great Elder Zia was staying.
The observers were curious about why the two Great Elders were meeting at such an hour. Their curiosity quickly turned to discomfort when the unmistakable sound of loud moans began emanating from the room, echoing through the hallway without restraint.
“What a man,” one of the watchers
remarked, “Even in someone else’s home, he doesn’t hold back from satisfying his lust.”
The corridor was filled with the sounds, though fortunately, the moans did not enter the room where Yu Lin was staying, thanks to the soundproofing designed to ensure the guests’ undisturbed rest.
Interestingly, the rooms were constructed to allow sounds from within to escape. It was said that it was done to ensure that the Guests were safe and could call for help if needed, but the real intentions were simply observations.
While the moans kept coming from Zia’s room, a portal opened in the depths of the Palace.
From the portal, a young man stepped out, donning a dark robe that was worn by Devourer when he left the Mythical Hero
Academy. The man also had the same facial
features as Devourer.
His face appeared a little pale as he
stepped out of the portal. He stood with
the help of the wall, taking deep breaths to
calm his messed up heartbeat.
“Who are you? What are you doing he-”
While Eren was catching a breath, he heard a man’s voice. Without a second of delay, his figure disappeared as he used acceleration, appearing behind the Guard.
A sword appeared in his hand that he
thrust in the man’s back while closing his
mouth with his other hand.
With the man’s death, his resistance
stopped. Eren sent his corpse in his inventory, not making much notice.
Even when killing the man, Eren only used the abilities that he had stolen from other Heroes as he was not supposed to be a Great Elder of the Demon Sect at this
moment.
Great Elder Ren Necroline was supposed to
be in Zia’s room, messing around. How
could he be linked to that person?
The only problem with being Devourer in
the Palace was that his abilities were suppressed under the Holy Domain.
With his presence suppressed, he did not have to worry about being detected by her
unless she was specially observing the entire palace to notice even the slightest disturbance.
As he killed the Guard, he did not forget to
use Liyone’s abilities and use the memories of the Guard. With the weak guard, his resistance was insignificant, especially when he was on the verge of death.
With his help, Eren understood the
structure of the depths of the Palace and how the Guards were assigned. It was truly
a fortress but if compared to the protection in the Holy City, he knew that things were much easier here.
Eren did not even bother to disguise himself as the Guards. With Devourer, he
could at least take all the Guards down without being detected, especially with the
help of acceleration.
The only problem was the Archbishop and the Priestess. With the Holy Priestess’ arrival, only a fool would dare to attack
them. With that kind of confidence, Eren was sure that this was the perfect opportunity.
He walked towards the Prison Cell as his
long robe fluttered in the wind.
The dimly lit corridor was silent, except for
the occasional sound of footsteps from the Guards patrolling.
The sound of footsteps that Eren came across, quickly ceased as he killed them to avoid any unnecessary problems.
While Eren was approaching the prison, Zia
was laying on her bed, her face read as she was making unnecessarily lewd voices. She occasionally facepalmed herself as she thought about people hearing her voice. However, she could do nothing about it.
This was what Eren requested before he disappeared after entering the bathroom in her room. From that moment, he didn’t
come back. She was sure that he had already left the room.
She didn’t know why Eren wanted her to
do this. Just what was he planning? Even with so many questions, she kept moaning.
To make it more realistic, she even started touching herself while imagining Eren doing it.
“Your Holiness, the preparation will be completed by early morning.” The Archbishop that Eren was worried
about, had entered the room of the Holy Priestess. However, he remained completely ignorant that he was being
fooled.
“How are our guests doing? Anything
suspicious?” The Holy Priestess asked
while standing in front of the window, looking at the distant moon. “The disciple seems to be sleeping. She
hasn’t left her room. As for Great Elder Ren
and Zia…” The Archbishop was a little hesitant, not knowing how to start this
topic with the Holy Priestess who was supposed to be the holiest person. “What about them? What did they do?” The
Holy Priestess asked while taking a sip from a glass of wine.
“Great Elder Ren appears to have entered
the room of Great Elder Zia. Inside the
room, he seems to be doing…” The
Archbishop again paused, unable to continue.
“Doing what? Do I need to see myself?” The
Holy Priestess asked, raising her eyebrows.
“Ah, he seems to be doing… Great Elder Zia!” The Archbishop exclaimed. “It seems he doesn’t know that the sounds from the room can be heard outside.
The Holy Priestess was about to use her observation skill to look into Zia’s room when she heard the words of the
Archbishop. She quickly stopped, being at a complete loss.
“Those vulgar people!” She rolled her eyes,
not wanting to see such a thing. She didn’t use her observation skills anymore.
“Should I stop them?” The Archbishop asked, realizing that the Holy Priestess was disgusted. It was well known throughout
the empire that the Holy Priestess hated
such things..
