S-Class Dungeon’s Mistress - Chapter 143

Adelaide became a mute who ate honey*. Like last time, Lisianthus seemed to take pride in his energy’s taste. Or he didn’t want to lose to Lupinus.

[T/N: Speechless / A person who could not open one’s heart to another.]

Frankly, Lisianthus’ energy was not Adelaide’s favorite. If she were to describe the taste of their energies, Lisianthus’ was light and rich in flavor, Lupin’s was fresh and popping, and Caladium’s energy was the most stimulating.

All of them were so good that it was impossible to decide which one was superior or inferior, but after absorbing it many times, she realized that Caladium’s energy was her favorite. Since she liked spicy and stimulating food, her taste seemed to have become similar. Or, since the first one she ate was Caladium, she might have been used to it the most.

But she didn’t have to tell the truth right away. Lisianthus was looking at her with such fierce eyes, she did not have the courage to say that Caladium’s was the best.

Tok. The tip of Lisianthus’ nose pressed lightly against Adelaide’s nose, urging her to answer. Adelaide hunched her shoulders at the ticklish touch.

‘I just have to say that Lisian’s is the best.’

Caladium and Lupinus weren’t there anyway, so for the sake of everyone’s peace, it would be best to say that.

But just as she was about to part her lips, a loud voice came from behind her.

“Yes, tell us.”

Lupin suddenly woke up and leaned his body against one of the walls.

“Who did you moan for last night, saying you liked it so much.”

“Or is it better to say who you bent your back for last night, asking for more.” He said in a hoarse voice as it hasn’t been long since he woke up. He slowly sweeped his black hair back, revealing his rivalry with Lisianthus.

“No, that…….”

Adelaide was at a loss between the two men. Whose side should she take? She just wanted to say Caladium’s was the best, but it was obvious that they’d both be furious.

‘I wish someone would take me out of this situation……!’

She prayed as she looked up at the sky with sad eyes. Whoever it is, please, get me out of this war-like tension.

And then the sky responded.

[Warning. An invasion has occurred. Warning.]

To be precise, the dungeon responded.

Waaeeenng—!

Red lights flashed menacingly, and an alarm began to resound throughout the dungeon. They were warnings that someone was attacking.

Adelaide got up from the sofa in surprise. It’s an attack. She had wished she could get out of this situation, but she didn’t want an invasion. She wondered if she had subconsciously used her powers.

She stared at Lisianthus with bewildered eyes. A gaze demanding an explanation of the situation was directed to him.

“……Sol Dungeon is here.”

Lisianthus clicked his tongue and answered. He had a regret-filled face that he did not get to hear Adelaide’s answer.

“It looks like war has broken out.”

At the same time, the st*pid expression on Adelaide’s face was gone. Where the confusion between the two men disappeared, a serious attitude fitting of a dungeon master was revealed.

“What? Sol Dungeon?”

Adelaide asked, wrinkling her brows. The Sol Dungeon, which they had meant to attack directly within a few days, came to Greenville first. She was so shocked she had a hard time believing it.

Of course, she knew that Shavarma hated her, but at the same time, Adelaide knew how much he valued his life. Wasn’t it obvious just looking at him groveling in front of Uriel?

But he came to Greenville so soon? Did he have a way to tell if Caladium was in the dungeon or not? If Caladium was in the dungeon, he would have suffered a devastating defeat.

Her pink pupils lit up in an instant.

‘It means that you’re convinced that Caladi isn’t here.’

Greenville’s internal situation must have leaked somewhere. And she could quickly guess who the leak was.

‘Death Knight. Those punks.’

They were very annoying until the very end.

Fortunately, they didn’t know that Lisianthus was also a devil. This must be why Shavarma attacked them with such a confident attitude.

“Yes, there are about two hundred people, and it seems like they broke into the portal in Mediar, the least secure.”

“The other demons! Are there no demons in the battlespace right now?”

“Yes. After finishing the battle with the warriors earlier, everyone is resting in their living spaces.”

Thank God. Adelaide breathed a sigh of relief. If any one of them was in combat, things would have been complicated.

If they broke in using the portal on the Mediar side, there was plenty of room. The trap room was made so carefully.

Most of the demons in Sol Dungeon will be killed by the traps installed by Lisianthus and Caladium. It was a great advantage for those who fought and defended the main base.

“Adelaide!”

“War, it’s war!”

The Skeletons who were resting in the second living space came running in a hurry. They must have been very surprised because the eye sockets above their white bones were bigger than ever.

“I’ll bring the other demons here right away!”

The Skeleton Captain quickly headed to the third living space. But before he could take a few steps, Bell, who had turned into a huge figure, bit him. Bell ran to the third living space with the Skeleton Captain in his mouth. The running cerberus was as fast as a devil.

Soon, Bell returned with all the remaining demons on his back. As soon as they arrived in the living room, all the demons fell to the floor because he transformed into his human form without saying a word, but due to the situation, everyone gathered without showing any pain.

Adelaide, who confirmed that all of her subordinates were safe, stood on a table and spoke in a loud voice.

“As you may have heard, Sol Dungeon just attacked. There will be war soon. You may be distressed because of the sudden situation but don’t be afraid. We’ll win in the end.”

In an instant, the room became quiet. The demons looked up at Adelaide with clear eyes and nodded their heads.

With her calm demeanor, she gave each of the demons a set position. The Skeletons and Durahan’s were sent as reliable support to those who had just arrived and were unfamiliar with battle.

“The most important thing is your lives. Never overdo it, and stay together as much as possible to fight. It’s okay to step back in a dangerous situation. Just don’t run away. Your colleagues will support you so you don’t get hurt.”

“Yes, Master!”

The demons quickly moved to their designated places according to her orders. Adelaide was talking without a break.

“Lisian is now Greenville’s most important force. However, rather than taking the lead in battle, focus on support so that the other members do not get hurt. Those who survived the trap room will have quite a bit of skill, so you have to be on the lookout. She also instructed the demons to form a pack.”

“Okay, Master.”

“Pia, and Juilliard, focus on recovery and defense magic from behind. It’s dangerous, so don’t come forward. Raham, protect them.”

“Yes, Master!”

“Lupin, I’d also like to also ask Lupin to assist the others. Don’t show all of your skills, and in case something goes wrong, just pretend to be a warrior who is under mind control powers.”

“Yes, I will. But what are you going to do?”

Lupin stared at Adelaide, his blue eyes twinkling. After a very long time, he finally saw the succubus he had longed for in the past. I think I’ll fall in love again. He grabbed his pounding chest.

“I will fight with Bell on the front lines. Bell, can you help me?”

“Yes! Sure!”

After Bell answered excitedly, he revealed himself again. A gigantic three-headed dog appeared from the darkness.

Adelaide reached out and stroked Bell’s middle head slightly then leapt onto his back. She was already holding a long whip in her hand.

“……Adele, don’t overdo it.”

Lisianthus looked at her with anxious eyes. Apart from her orders, he planned to keep an eye on her safety, but he was worried that Adelaide might get a small scratch on her body.

“Yes, don’t worry, Lisian. It turned out rather well. I needed someone to try out what I learned from Lisian.”

Adelaide, on the other hand, smiled with a fearless expression. The voice that followed was just as confident.

“I won’t lose.”

Lisianthus was silent for a moment. Her brightly shining figure instantly seized all of his senses. Her face, revealed through her wavy black hair, was beyond beautiful, it was a wonder.

“Come on, let’s go, Bell!”

“Woof!”

Bell barked loudly and ran into the portal. And so the war began.

Bang!

Kwagwagwang!

Fierce battles took place everywhere in the peaceful Greenville Dungeon. Sol Dungeon was not easy to deal with because of the large number of their demons. Despite being filtered out in the trap room, a large number of demons flocked in like a swarm of ants.

The demons of Greenville formed a group and under Lisianthus’ orders, executed the demons of Sol one after another.

“Aaaah!”

“Keueeu…….”

“S-Save…… Keuk!”

Desperate screams everywhere. And Adelaide was one of the biggest contributors to what made them scream.

Every time she swung her whip once, the necks of the demons fell. As if saying she will not forgive those who stood in her way.

Even if they were high-level demons in the world, they were still not a match for Adelaide. They just didn’t die in one hit but the result was all the same.

“Injured demons, come this way!”

“Get behind the shield!”

All of Greenville’s demons were doing their job quite well. Behind the scenes, Pia healed the injured demons, and the lich Juilliard supported his comrades by diligently spreading defensive magic.

From the front, the sound of Cereza hitting the heads of the other demons with a huge hammer could be heard from one side, and Cerezo went around and cut the demons in half who dared to touch his sister. Vampires were originally a strong race in the first place, so there was nothing to worry about.

And there was nothing to say about the Skeletons and Durahans who were the early members. They have grown together with the dungeon, and they were already as powerful as the high-level demons.

“Keuk!”

The swords of the Skeletons, which had been skillfully striking and pulling out, pierced the heart of the demons.

The Skeleton monsters can defeat high-level demons! Some demons from the Sol Dungeon were so shocked they ran away.
