Chapter 662: Chapter 333: Safety Incidents Are Also a Kind of Trial!_3

"Oh..."

The two, one in front of the other, quickly arrived in front of a small hill with a protruding side, which had an entrance.

"This is the entrance to the Underground Maze I’ve created. Since the entire Underground City is beneath the ground, if the entrance isn’t obvious enough, no adventuring parties would be able to find it."

The Elf Maiden explained earnestly. After half an hour of dusting, her waist was sore, so she couldn’t help but stretch upright.

Beside her, Shami, who had been watching the Elf Maiden, returned his gaze to the front and began to look forward to it.

Standing tall with her chest out, it seemed she was quite confident.

As Shami was about to enter the entrance, the Elf Maiden stopped him.

"Wait a moment!"

The Elf Maiden used a crystal given by the Magical Girl, which formed a transparent energy shield around them both.

Shami glanced at the Elf Maiden.

"This way it’s safer."

"Is there a poisonous gas trap inside?" Shami asked, puzzled.

The Elf Maiden’s gaze flickered evasively.

"Ah... although there isn’t... but since it’s my Underground City... there’s definitely danger lurking everywhere!"

Shami grew even more eager.

The two entered the entrance.

The Elf Maiden’s Underground City was crafted beneath the surface, truly deserving of the name "Underground City."

After entering, they quickly reached a circular space, where eight different passageway entrances appeared before them.

Shami examined his surroundings, while the Elf Maiden chose the entrance on the far right and pulled Shami forward.

Frowning, Shami observed, though he couldn’t see any traces of mechanisms in the surroundings. Since the Elf Maiden was so confident, there must be some details he’d overlooked.

You can’t be a good demon king if you can’t see the traps meticulously designed by the Demon Envoy.

This space, both round and square, and these eight difficult-to-choose entrances... could it be!

Shami’s eyes gradually widened as he looked at the Elf Maiden in shock.

Could this be the gossip formation?

"Could the one on the far right be the gate of life and the others gates of death?"

The Elf Maiden shook her head, Dammy’s brows furrowing slightly.

Though she didn’t know what Shami misunderstood, it didn’t seem like a good sign!

Because the door on the far right leads to the end in the shortest distance. The fewer things seen, the less exposed the earthen Underground City is, and the lower the chance of getting scolded, right!

Lureya and Shami walked in the airtight passage, surrounded by walls made of compacted soil on all sides.

Suddenly, the soil above started to move. The Elf Maiden seemed to have anticipated this and was utterly unpanicked, simply moving a bit closer to Shami.

The soil above the passage loosened rapidly, collapsing with a cloud of dust, quickly burying the two in dirt, while the light from above the woods shone into the passage.

The prepared energy shield protected them, and inside it, the Elf Maiden crossed her arms.

"This is the first trial of the Elf Underground City! Since you’ve come to explore the Underground City, adventurers must be prepared to be buried by collapsing soil at any time!"

"To put it bluntly, it’s just poor engineering quality, Lureya! So that’s why you were fixing such defects earlier? This isn’t just a small issue that can be covered with whitewash; this is a major safety hazard that demands sincere apologies!"

Shami suddenly understood why the Elf Maiden had been patching things up earlier.

"You could just say whether adventurers will come or not!"

The Elf Maiden persisted stubbornly.

"It’s hard to say if this kind of one-time Underground City, where adventurers might perish due to accidents, can last a month even."

Shami sighed, still hoping, as he looked at the Elf Maiden.

"Let’s go on. If other trials are designed well, at most we’ll build another Underground City elsewhere..."

A slight sweat appeared on the Elf Maiden’s face.

What exactly was Shami expecting! We’ve already covered two-thirds of the journey!

The two continued walking without a word.

Soon, there was a dirt wall ahead in the passage.

The Elf Maiden turned back stiffly and smiled at Shami.

"We’ve reached the end. Sometimes exploring doesn’t lead to gain, and it’s normal to have no results after trying!"

The Elf Maiden’s words of encouragement failed.

Shami looked over with an expression of utter gloom.

"Lureya, why am I so stupid? I should have caught you during that collapse earlier. Why did I trust you and walk to the end with you, letting you trick me again..."

The demon king was angry!

"It’s not that I was toying with you, Shami! Making an Elf Maiden, who naturally dislikes harming life, dig such adventuring slaughter pits is completely unreasonable!"

The Elf Maiden explained passionately. But Shami showed no intention of listening. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

The Elf Maiden gritted her teeth, turned around, and lifted her elf skirt slightly, sticking her bottom out towards Shami.

"Don’t think using your body as compensation will spare you, Lureya," Shami said sternly.

The Elf Maiden, who was about to open her mouth and say, "Ah la la la... if you’re going to punish me, do as you please... go ahead and mark up the Elf Maiden’s bottom... after all, you’re the one who’s going to feel the regret in the end!" paused in surprise.

Huh? Body?

The Elf Maiden’s cheeks gradually turned red, moving closer to Shami.

[Elf Maiden activates her attack card on the demon king!]

In the dim cave, Shami slowly became stiff all over, while the anger he had accumulated dissipated rapidly like a deflated balloon.

Noon.

Shami and the Elf Maiden slowly walked out of the small hill’s entrance.
