How come there are succubi in this dungeon?

Chapter 26 The Hero Arrives

Outside North City, a figure darted swiftly through the woods, his bright red headdress flamboyant and eye-catching, his speed unbelievable.

Before leaving, the Earl gifted Willis a swift horse.

But he abandoned his horse halfway there and ran towards North.

He didn't want to make a big fuss about entering North City; Willis hated trouble and disliked contact with nobles.

In fact, he wouldn't have chosen to enter Earl Ston's mansion if he hadn't encountered an accident while fishing.

His speed and stamina far surpassed those of warriors of the same rank; a journey that would normally take a night by horse, Willis covered in half a day.

He successfully infiltrated North City when the sun was just at its highest point.

Willis never breaks his promises; he hasn't forgotten his commitment to the Earl, but he didn't say when the break would be.

He was not prepared to get involved in any power struggles; he would rely on his own investigation to determine the succubus's affiliation.

Willis, clad in a black robe, drifted through the crowd and entered the Adventurers' Guild unnoticed.

Willis stood in front of the guild platform, took out ten copper coins and held them in his palm, then used a voice-changing spell to say:

A guide to the North Dungeon.

"Sold out."

Willis's eyes were filled with bewilderment. Could this thing possibly sell out?

The person in charge at the front of the stage didn't even look up, and explained skillfully, "There are too many new people coming to North Dungeon every day, and our guild's production capacity can't keep up."

"But you don't need to worry..."

Before the person in charge could finish speaking, a short man, also dressed in a black robe, rushed forward and shouted, "Me! Me! Me! I'll show you around the North Dungeon! Nobody knows it better than me!"

The little girl used a voice changer, but perhaps because she was too excited, Willis was able to imagine what an innocent child was under the black robe.

At the same time, the hero's blessing told him that the person in front of him was most likely not lying.

It turns out to be a small dish.

"How much?" Willis asked.

The shorter man glanced at Willis's palm: "Ten copper coins?"

"make a deal."

Willis agreed without hesitation, his speed putting even the front desk manager to shame, who couldn't help but remind him:

"Brother, the market price is ten gold coins. This guy might be up to no good."

"I had no ill intentions," the short man said guiltily.

Willis smiled strangely from under his hood and said to the shorter man, "It's okay, I believe in you."

"Ugh!" The front desk manager stammered, muttering something about how good words were useless against a damn fool, and watched the two strange men walk out of the Adventurers' Guild.

Willis followed the short man with an air of composure, his senses heightened, hoping to spot any possible accomplices in the crowd.

He had even already planned how to hunt them once they were outside the city.

If he were just an ordinary adventurer, he would surely be extorted for all his money and even left to die in the wilderness, right?

But since he is a hero, even a fifth-tier expert wouldn't dare say he's guaranteed to win; in the end, they would only kneel down and beg for mercy.

They were saying something like, "If I'd known he was a hero, I definitely wouldn't have done anything."

They will repent, and then they will die.

Willis was used to this kind of script; aside from the fact that the short actor in front of him was acting too fake, he was very familiar with this process.

But what he didn't know was that the short man already knew his identity.

[Occupation: Warrior]

The moment Willis entered North City, the little man saw the glittering profession floating in the sky.

The ability to directly see through someone else's class is a pipe dream, but the little girl is Oliya. Yesterday, she went to the dungeon and got a limited-time cheat that allows her to see through other people's levels and classes at a glance.

This thing costs 100 life points per minute, and it really hurt when Caesar gave it to me.

"This hero is such a fool. I feel like a fraud myself, yet he actually believed me."

Oliya mentally scoffed, but then felt it was wrong to make fun of others like that. She thought it was possible that the hero was just too kind and thought she was desperately short of money, and simply wanted to help her.

The heroes in stories are all like this: kind and powerful.

Next, all she had to do was follow her boss's instructions, find a time when they were alone together, ask the hero what his dream was, and then enter the dungeon with him, and everything would be fine.

The two people, each with their own ulterior motives, walked out of North City in silence, one after the other.

Seeing that no one was around, Olya suddenly stopped and turned around to ask.

What is your dream?

"..." Willis stopped, his hand that was about to draw his sword.

He didn't sense anyone else around him, and the short man didn't seem to have any murderous intent.

Willis paused for a moment, not answering Olya's question directly, but instead asking:

"Are you pitying me? Or were you forced into this? Did you not want to do it, and now your conscience has suddenly bothered you?"

These kinds of things happen occasionally; Willis let a few of these people go.

What kind of reaction is this...? Olya felt that the hero had misunderstood something. She didn't think that her relationship with Caesar could be so easily seen.

To complete the mission, she feigned ignorance and replied, "If I answer these questions, can you tell me what your dream is?"

"Sure, provided you're not lying to me."

Willis nodded. It was just a dream; he might as well say it.

Olya's eyes lit up, and she replied sincerely, "I do pity you. I was forced into this situation, but I haven't had a change of heart."

"What do you mean by 'having no conscience'?"

Willis was unsure whether he should draw his sword or not; why did his last line seem out of place in the script he knew so well?

"Why are you asking me this now? I didn't lie to you, it's your turn to answer me."

Willis never breaks his promises. He said helplessly, "My dream is to become a champion of justice and eradicate all evil in this world."

"A true champion of justice, how noble!"

After completing her mission, Olya silently started leading the way, leaving Willis feeling incredibly frustrated.

He was full of questions and realized that Olya might not be a robber, but Olya's approach to him was obviously purposeful.

After Willis realized that they were indeed heading in the direction of the North Underground City, he patiently tried to figure out what the little guy was up to.

We can't just ask him what his dream is, can we?

Before long, the two passed the watchtower and approached a location about ten miles from the North Underground City.

Oliya connected to Caesar's network and quickly reported the hero's situation.

"A partner of justice, interesting, interesting. It matches the intelligence. He's definitely not a traditional demon-slaying hero."

Inside the North Underground City, Caesar drifted through the underground chambers in spirit form.

Behind him, Luna led several succubus secretaries, frantically profiling Willis's personality and devising the next battle strategy.

After Luna nearly died from exhaustion, Caesar created several more intelligent succubi to assist her.

Their talents and potential remained unchanged; only their intelligence was enhanced.

If needed, Caesar could build even more.

However, Luna's special role cannot be changed, and the think tank must not have multiple individuals making the decision.

Soon after, the proposal was submitted.

"Oria, take him into the dungeon."
