Chapter 399: Chapter 387 Servant

Yu Lu,

one of the senior members of the Sisterhood,

arrived at the Corner ten years earlier than Hua Yuan, rarely appearing among the regular sisters. Even Hua Yuan had only seen her three times.

The first time was when Hua Yuan had just arrived here, and was received personally by her grandmother in person, with this elder sister appearing by the grandmother’s side.

The second time was a few months ago when Hua Yuan returned to the apartment after picking flowers and happened to encounter her in the stairwell. The sisters, who usually frolicked and joked, all became quiet, lowering their heads, waiting for this sister Yu to slowly float away from the stairwell.

Hua Yuan didn’t stop then but continued ascending at her original speed, brushing past this sister Yu.

The counterpart just passed by normally, without trouble, but the chilling sensation that passed at the same time was memorable to Hua Yuan.

Unexpectedly, their third meeting ended up being an action together.

Hua Yuan was completely unfamiliar with this sister, only knowing her name, without any knowledge of her abilities.

"Sister Yu."

As Hua Yuan shouted the other’s name, the woman moved her neck to disengage from the coarse hemp rope without any assistance from her arms.

The tongue hanging outside withdrew into her mouth, covered by the lips,

it seemed, because of a penchant for hanging, her neck appeared somewhat longer than usual.

Black hair, black dress,

height at normal human level,

bangs covering the part above her nose completely,

lips with a faint pink hue, primarily white.

Having disengaged from the rope, she didn’t come down to the ground but stopped floating at a ten-centimeter distance from it, moving in the air.

Without her having to reach out personally, the apartment door opened by itself, and her body floated, entering the waiting living train outside the door first.

"Hua Yuan, who is she?"

"She should be one of the most trusted and core sisters by Grandmother’s side; this is only my third time seeing her. My understanding of her is basically like a stranger, but with a sister like this arranged in, it might be tough for us to maintain any initiative in the coming actions."

"Hmm."

Luo Di didn’t care much, as long as arrangements helped him avoid the clown’s influence, any personnel would do.

But upon reelection,

the grandmother had already offered an arm to guard against the clown, yet still arranged for powerful sisters to assist throughout, perhaps really wanting to minimize Luo Di’s risks before advancing, or maybe for other purposes.

Without much delay,

Luo Di and Hua Yuan followed and boarded the living train, heading to the place supposedly allowing Luo Di to hunt swiftly and acquire materials for gate-construction.

In the carriage,

Hua Yuan and Luo Di sat on one side,

while Yu Lu sat on the other side,

giving off an increasing dissonance, with that slender neck beyond human limits.

No interaction occurred, nor did she express any interest in Luo Di as the sisters in the apartment did, just quietly sitting there.

After about ten minutes without any sound, just as Luo Di was ready to chat with Hua Yuan about questions regarding the destination.

A sound came,

although she was seated opposite, it felt as though the sound was right next to his ear, accompanied by a sense of suffocation as if his throat was tightly strangled.

"Strike me with all your might."

Upon hearing such a request, Luo Di immediately stood up, walking over in his leather shoes.

He clearly understood that any hesitation or doubt would result in an undesirable outcome. Since it was the other party’s request, it should be fulfilled immediately, as it’s the most basic etiquette and respect.

Buzz!

Within the sealed carriage of flesh,

a beam of moonlight shone down,

landing on the woman opposite,

the leather shoes already stood before her,

the ancient Old Spine stirred up the most primal fear,

slaughter.

Gah~ The Crow Colt neighed, as if announcing the commencement of execution.

The weapon from Hell was held high in the air,

yet seemingly before descending, the execution had completed upon the moonlight’s fall.

No blood blossomed,

only a cleaved blank body remained, with nothing between the chainsaw-cut body—perhaps merely a hollowed-out human specimen.

Buzz-buzz-buzz~

The light embedded in the train flickered,

the woman who was just cut open, restored as before, slightly pursed her lips under the bangs, then broke into a faint smile.

"Not bad, looking forward to our cooperation."

"Thank you."

Luo Di withdrew the weapon, retaking his seat.

Hua Yuan had been observing this process all along,

she considered it her first sight of Luo Di presenting his full power during execution,

thinking the never-budded pituitary Luo Di was just a little baby needing her assistance for nurturing, but now it seemed unnecessary.

Luo Di had just sat down when Hua Yuan nudged her arm over: "Was that a joint presentation of the Hell System and Corner System just now? Such strong oppression... Honestly, the un-budded pituitary individuals shouldn’t wield such power.

You might indeed be able to leap over levels and slay those lowest monsters in the Corner."

"Only the lowest?"

"What more do you want? Against a Pseudo-Person of your level, no matter how unique and powerful, a direct clash with a monster inside the Corner usually means massacre.

Do you really think the monsters filtered into the Corner are inferior to those Pseudo-Persons who haven’t even taken the seam test?

The gap in levels is enormous. Once the pituitary buds grow, the individual will undergo a metamorphosis. By the time they sprout, you’ll feel this distinct transformation.

I’m now several times stronger than when I was on the island, I could squash you effortlessly."

"Alright~ by the way, what kind of place are we heading to?"

"Grandmother wishes you to advance swiftly, wanting you to gather enough Corner corpses quickly, though there are many options, only one place proves the most efficient and relatively fair, while also allowing you to obtain many Corner Coins.

I heard you previously entered the Sisterhood by participating in underground combat competitions, Luo Di, didn’t you?"

"Yes."

"Great, because our operation this time bears some resemblance.

We’re heading to the largest public city in the Corner—[City of Sin]

By the time we’ll need Luo Di to play a role, portraying as a [male servant] Yu Lu and I bought at a high price.

We’ll then, under the Sisterhood’s name, enroll you in a brutal, ultimate death game."

"Death game? Locking me up with another servant for combat?"

"It’s not that simple,

to satisfy various perverted desires within the Corner, higher-level sensory stimulation is required, it might demand not only you as a servant to participate but also me as a master or in cooperation with Sister Yu.

And games could vary day-to-day, we’ll see when we arrive.

After all, many renowned monsters bring back, purchase, or even produce slaves to partake in such gambling-like games.

Besides satiating perverted desires, one could win large amounts of Corner Coins through it.

Luo Di, you are Grandmother’s chosen one, don’t bring shame to us."

Hua Yuan seemed already into character, becoming increasingly engrossed, already fantasizing about ambiguous games between master and servant in her mind.

She promptly took out the prepared items, like the collar with spiked structures, and a lead, looking at Luo Di with an enchanting smile.

"Luo Di, this is all for your advancement, I trust you won’t mind? Heh heh."

"Must this really be done?"

Hua Yuan shook the collar in her hand, responded with a smiling face, "Of course it’s a must, you’re human, even an un-budded human. Without wearing this to declare servant status, walking in the City of Sin would be immensely dangerous, a moment of inattention would get you cleaned out.

Moreover,

both Sister Yu and I need you disguised this way, otherwise, others would look down upon our Sisterhood, especially if we’re moving along with such an inferior male."

"What if I choose to refuse?"

Unexpectedly, Hua Yuan didn’t force it, just smiled slightly, "I knew Mr. Di wouldn’t compromise so easily, it really is hard to keep a leash on you.

While the collar isn’t mandatory, you must wear this emblem."

Hua Yuan suddenly slapped Luo Di’s chest, and when her palm moved away, a metallic emblem bound tightly between the fabric by hundreds of tiny roots.

The surface of the emblem featured a pattern of three hands forming a circle, representing the [Sisterhood].
