Chapter 1635: Chapter 1091 Cassin Outpost

Axila did give Duanmu Huai a clue, according to her, not long ago, they learned that cultists were showing signs of activity in Alcanas, so Axila sent her men to scout, but they have not returned, which is both bad and good.

The bad news is they’re likely in danger, and the good news is if they haven’t returned, it’s highly probable Alcanas has already become a cultist stronghold.

So after asking Axila for directions, Duanmu Huai immediately set off, heading towards Alcanas.

To be honest, traveling in the desert is very boring, with yellow sand everywhere and no scenery, plus due to rampant cultist activity, hardly any sign of life is seen here.

But fortunately, Duanmu Huai has his own way to pass the time.

"Ugh......"

"Ugh......"

"Alright, alright, hurry up and move."

Duanmu Huai held the chain in his hand, staring at the two petite goddesses lying on the ground in front of him.

"At this pace, we won’t reach Alcanas before nightfall."

"You... you barbaric and rude guy!"

At this moment, Stheno and Euryale were on all fours, like two adorable imperial dogs, crawling forward using their hands and feet on the desert sand. Around their necks was something resembling a collar, the other end was held by Duanmu Huai... that’s right, going out to walk the dogs when bored isn’t a bad idea, right?

"Ha? I’m teaching, teaching, okay?"

Faced with Stheno’s angry complaints, Duanmu Huai raised his head, giving her a disdainful look.

"This is to teach you the correct master-subordinate relationship, so just walk obediently."

No doubt, the reason for this situation is because these sisters couldn’t resist starting a quarrel with Duanmu Huai again. After two days of silence, the twin goddesses seemed to come back to life, continuing to complain and mock Duanmu Huai incessantly. Euryale even tried using coquetry tactics to make Duanmu Huai let her go, but Stheno adamantly refused to bow her head.

"A crude beast like you, a mutated gorilla, don’t expect me to bow to you!"

Since Stheno said so, Duanmu Huai decided to let them truly experience what a beast is.

The pitiful young goddesses, already reduced to being leashed and crawling on all fours by the brutal man, anyone seeing them would probably be filled with righteous indignation, eager to rush and save them as a hero. But Duanmu Huai had no intention whatsoever to soften his stance due to their pitiful appearances. Unlike the obedient younger sister, these two elder sisters were just the type that acted out if not properly disciplined. Such disobedient troublemakers had to be taught a proper lesson, making them understand who truly was the master in this relationship, wasn’t it?

Duanmu Huai was not the type of man to pamper women, anyone who dared provoke him, prepare to suffer, women were no exception! Especially those who flaunted their looks, thinking they could disregard others, they really thought the boss couldn’t handle them?

"You ugly and crude man!"

If Stheno had a choice, she would definitely oppose Duanmu Huai, but unfortunately, Duanmu Huai possesses command spells—whether she likes it or not, she has to obediently obey and continue crawling!

"It’s said wild dogs are hard to train, seems it will take some time."

"What a joke! Wanting us to bow to you is absolutely impossible! Right, Euryale?"

"Ye, yes, Stheno......"

Beside her, Euryale lowered her head, staring at the ground as she replied.

"We are perfect idols, the beautiful goddesses that men most long for, but now we are just lying here like dogs, being ordered around by this fierce and savage MASTER... ah... this humiliation... truly unbearable......"

The more she spoke, the more Euryale’s tone wavered, seemingly out of anger on the surface, but if one carefully examined her beautiful lowered face at this point, they would find Euryale’s face flushed, her slender and delicate body tense and trembling uncontrollably.

As a goddess, she was supposed to be cherished by all men, a supremely noble being. When had she ever been treated like this, treated like an animal? She had completely lost her dignity and honor as a goddess in front of this man, becoming just a toy for his amusement. Every time she recalled his utter disregard for her feelings, treating her like a mere tool, a wave of electric-like numbness shot up her spine, causing her to shiver.

Why did she feel like this? Clearly, it was such humiliation, such anger......

"Ugh----!"

Just as Euryale was pondering, suddenly Stheno let out a muffled groan from beside her; she turned her head in surprise to see Stheno’s face flushed, lying still on the ground.

"Stheno?"

"Da, damn mortal... you dare use such command spells on a goddess!"

"Ha? Didn’t you ask for it?"

It seems that just now when Euryale was pondering, Stheno couldn’t resist quarreling with Duanmu Huai again, and the latter promptly used a command spell to give an order.

"What a joke! You actually used command spells to issue such orders to me!"

"Ah, I’m merely curious."

Facing Stheno’s flushed face and angry rebuke, Duanmu Huai spread his arms, shrugging his shoulders.

"Didn’t you say you were a perfect idol? Then I remembered a Japanese saying that idols don’t go to the bathroom, so I wanted to see if it was true......"

"You, you bastard......"

At this moment, Stheno reached out her hand to cover her stomach, grinding her teeth, while Euryale stared at her astonished. Although she didn’t hear what just happened, the current situation was already quite obvious.

"Let me go, let me... go..."

"Ha? Don’t joke around. You’re a dog now. Do I have to teach you how a dog should behave?"

Duanmu Huai stared coldly at Stheno. If Medusa were here, she might have intervened. But unfortunately, Duanmu Huai had already sent Medusa to secretly protect the students. So unless Duanmu Huai used a Command Spell to call her back, she couldn’t do anything about the situation.

"...Hmph!"

But Stheno said nothing, merely tensing her body, trying to resist with willpower.

"Do as you please. Anyway, you know that once I use the Command Spell, your resistance will be futile."

Duanmu Huai sneered.

"I might as well use the Command Spell to make you spread your legs, raise your hands in a V, and squat by the roadside for a photo. How about that?"

"..........."

Upon hearing Duanmu Huai’s words, Stheno shuddered, while Euryale watched her sister anxiously...

"I, I understand...!"

Finally, perhaps Stheno made a decision. She bit her lip, lay on the ground, and lifted her right leg...

"Huala la la..."

The faint sound of water vanished as quickly as it came in the desolate wilderness, and at this moment, Stheno buried her head in her arms, sobbing.

"Woo...woo..."

"Very good, well done. That’s a good obedient dog."

Duanmu Huai only then stepped forward, reaching out to pat Stheno’s head, who curled up into a ball, trembling silently, only whimpering softly.

Meanwhile, in Duanmu Huai’s eyes, the "Mark of Submission" attribute for Stheno upgraded from LV1 to LV2.

"Stheno..."

Watching this scene, Euryale felt complicated. She stared at Stheno being patted on her head by Duanmu Huai, her eyes revealing a hint of...truly only a hint of envy and expectation.

After ending the education for the two Goddesses, Duanmu Huai had them spiritualize again and continued on the journey. This time, Stheno offered no resistance, obediently following Duanmu Huai’s orders. As for Euryale’s reaction, it was a bit complicated; she seemed reluctant to part with Duanmu Huai, but eventually disappeared again...perhaps it was just a delusion.

Without the burden of the two, Duanmu Huai quickly arrived at an outpost. He recalled Axila saying this place was known as the Cassin Outpost, a necessary route to Alcanas. If Axila’s people had passed through here, there would surely be some clues.

The entire Cassin Outpost seemed unremarkable with guards stationed at checkpoints and the gate securing the place, while merchants peddled their goods. But here fewer people were around, and the gate to Alcanas remained shut...Duanmu Huai took a quick scan, only to see a group of guards approaching.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?"

"I’m here looking for someone."

Duanmu Huai stared at the captain of the security team, speaking up.

"A while ago, Axila of Iron Wolf sent someone to Alcanas. Since then, there’s been no news. Do you know where he went?"

"Oh? You’re sent by Axila?"

Hearing Duanmu Huai’s answer, the security captain’s expression turned serious.

"It’s great that you’ve come. In fact, that person only recently arrived at our outpost, heavily injured. Not sure what happened, so we blocked the route to Alcanas! And he’s currently recuperating in our outpost."

"Take me to him."

"Okay."

The security captain nodded, gesturing to Duanmu Huai.

"Please, this way."

Under the guidance of the security captain, Duanmu Huai turned and headed into a building’s basement nearby. However, just as he descended the stairs, stepping into the cellar, the security captain behind him suddenly pulled a dagger from his bosom, stabbing towards Duanmu Huai’s back!

"Clang!!"

The dagger gleaming with magical light didn’t penetrate Duanmu Huai’s Power Armor. Simultaneously, Duanmu Huai turned sharply, reaching out to grab the security captain’s head!

"As expected, I knew there was something wrong! Who are you!"

"Screee!!"

As Duanmu Huai’s voice fell, the security captain and the guards beside him suddenly transformed, revealing their upper bodies as humans, but with snake-like lower bodies as bizarre demons, lunging toward Duanmu Huai!

"Good timing!"

Seeing these demons, Duanmu Huai felt joy instead of fear.

This meant he had found the right place!
