“…!” Iris’s eyes snapped open as she returned to reality, and she felt an insurmountable amount of power awakening inside her. It was nothing like what she had ever experienced before, but it felt good. Warmth flooded through her veins, and her mana was instantly restored to full and was still growing in capacity. “… Heh.” Iris smirked as the power entered her body, then preemptively cut the air with her hand. A crescent-shaped concentration of energy shot out of her fingertips and soared…

“… The air feels so hot and sticky,” Iris muttered with an uncomfortable expression on her face, riding on Finn’s shoulders. “I hate it.” Since her mana wasn’t unlimited, they decided to conserve as much as they could by having Iris ride on Finn like usual unless it was absolutely essential for her to walk on her own. Iris didn’t say it out loud, but she much preferred being on Finn’s shoulders like this rather than walking on her own. She was afraid Finn would think she was weird or…

Upon leaving Evelyn’s Heart, the first thing Finn and Iris did was head to their hotel here on the surface—the same one they had stayed at a few days ago, before going into the underground. Of course, not being there for three days meant their room was gone, but they simply booked a new one and that was that. Unfortunately, once again, there only vacant rooms were ones with one bed, but Iris didn’t seem to mind, so Finn didn’t particularly care either. After acquiring the room, Finn and Iris…

– The Next Morning – “Leaving?” Evelyn asked as Finn and Iris entered her private chambers. Finn gave a nod. “We came to bid farewell. We’re returning to the surface and heading back into the Temple… is what I’d like to say, but we are still waiting for the equipment you promised.” But Evelyn only smiled and stood up from her chair, then pressed a book on her bookshelf wall. Immediately, a rumbling noise ensued, and the bookshelf suddenly parted in half, revealing a hidden passageway…

“In here~” Finn said, still posing as Evelyn. He took careful care to make his voice as alluring and soft as possible, just like Evelyn’s. After spending three whole days learning her habits and observing her carefully, he knew exactly how to act to be convincing. The evidence of that was the lustful look hidden beneath that pig-mask of Lorenzo, who was practically dripping saliva from his mouth. After so long, he would finally get to have his way with the woman he wanted! Finn led the man into the…

– The Next Morning – “Mm… Finn… Finn…” Iris murmured in her sleep as she tossed and turned in her bed, eventually wrapping her arms around Finn and holding him closely. She didn’t even realize what she was doing, but when her arms closed around him, her murmuring stopped, as if falling into relaxation. Finn, who was already awake by now, didn’t move in bed and let Iris cling onto him, breathing softly like a cat. For whatever reason, she loved to do this subconsciously whenever they…

“Whew… you really made a lot of money for me today, Finn,” Evelyn said with a wry smile as the two walked on the streets together. “Everyone in the crowd had placed their bets on Nightmare, but you defeated him with such ease, fufu…” The two walked under the tranquil moonlight, their footsteps echoing against the pavement. It was now nighttime, and they had just finished eating dinner at a nearby restaurant. Now, they were on their way back home. Finn, being Finn, was silent most of the way,…

– 2 Hours Earlier – “… I’m going to the bathroom,” Finn said quietly, then exited the room, Evelyn following him with her gaze. Of course, he wasn’t actually going to use the bathroom, and Evelyn knew that. It was just something Finn said in case there was someone spying on them. With the sword on his back and fully-clad in Voidheart armor, Finn entered the washroom and checked around to see if there was anyone else here. After confirming he was alone and making sure there were no security…

The Warrior’s Cage. According to Evelyn, it was a place where underground fighters would come together and duel in a ring. Angelica usage was allowed, and death was a common occurrence. The audience would bet on the winner of a battle, and those who guessed right will obtain the other side’s bet money. The actual victor of the battle, on the other hand, would be paid by the organization who administrated the Warrior’s Cage. They didn’t have a specified name, but they were quite rich and powerful…

It didn’t take long for the two to find a restaurant. It was quite luxurious, and needless to say, the duo attracted many, many stares. Nearly every head in the restaurant whipped around to look at them, but none spoke a word. Of them, a few were gawking at Finn’s unusual outfit with a massive sword on his back, but most were simply too busy admiring Evelyn’s beauty, even with her mask on. After all, her voluptuous curves were more than enough to capture the lust in any man’s heart and evoke…
