OVERLORD- CH-70. Adventurer Meeting

"Oh, that's it." Meldas suddenly realized, "If I say it's for fun, would you believe me?"

"What?"

"Yes, we succubi are naturally keen on seeking pleasure. When we passed by here and saw the human city, we couldn't help but become interested." Meldas said.

"To be specific, I want to see if there is a strong and excellent man here who can satisfy me."

As the succubus spoke, she looked around, scanning the adventurers with seductive eyes.

"Then, because there are too many good men here, I recruited my pets to test them. That's all."

She spoke with a pitiful attitude.

"I just didn't expect to meet a strong man like you here. Well, as a trip for fun, I'm very happy to meet a handsome boy like you." After saying this, Meldas sighed again.

"But I am not willing to risk my life to enjoy your beauty. Please, can you put away that terrible bow?"

"Then could you please release the hostage first?" Aya said calmly, sighing inwardly at how expressive the other party's demeanor was. She didn't pull the string but didn't let go of the bow and arrow either.

"How can you say 'hostage'? This is the girl I saved with great effort. She decided to repay my kindness with her body."

"I didn't...ah!" Arella was about to retort when Meldas spanked her on the butt.

"If it weren't for me, she would have been in the demon giant's stomach long ago. I didn't treat her teammates badly either. I ate them all up." She said, stretching out her index finger and licking it.

The teasing words and sexy actions sent chills down one's spine.

"So you want to run away with your 'little maid'?" Aya narrowed her eyes, "Or do you want to fight me?"

"Let's just forget about this." Meldas said with a wry smile, shaking her head, "I don't think I can defeat you. I can't even take your arrow. You are not the kind of person who can threaten others at will just because you have a hostage in hand."

"You're right. I'm not that kind. Depending on the situation, I might choose to kill you along with the hostages," Aya said calmly, "I'll bury you with honor later."

If you can save them, save them; if you can't, give up. This was her pure, calm, natural, and rational attitude.

"Well, although I'm reluctant, it seems I have no choice but to give it up." The succubus said with a sigh.

"As long as you understand, if you release the hostages and promise not to attack this city again, I will let you leave alive." Aya said as she put the arrow back into the quiver.

"Of course, I can only promise not to take action. I can't control the other adventurers present."

"As long as you don't take action, I won't care about other people. It doesn't matter what happens," Meldas said, untying the rope from Arella's collar.

"However, if those people come to chase or stop me, I can't guarantee their safety."

Such contemptuous words made the adventurers present feel angry and ashamed, but they couldn't refute her.

"Then let's do this, everyone. Please don't act rashly, okay?" Aya said, and the adventurers nodded in shame.

"That's great." Meldas gently pushed Arella, "You are free now. I will teach you the skills of serving. Just think of it as a gift. Make good use of it."

"You let her go so easily. You really trust me." Aya said.

"I believe in my judgment of people. It is the foundation of a woman's life." Meldas said, kneeling down.

"Well, Master Levi, and all the lovely men and women, we will remain unchanged and will meet again in the future."

"Oh, by the way, this is a farewell gift for you all, and a reminder—I'm not the only demon interested in this place. So, take care of yourselves."

As she spoke, thick purple fog rose from beneath her feet, and in full view of everyone, the succubus disappeared.

"This!" Jasmine said in surprise.

"It's just an invisibility spell." Aya replied casually.

"Levi, you... you don't plan to chase her?"

"There's no need. She no longer has the courage to do evil." Aya said, "Jasmine."

"Eh? Yes!"

"You take care of that little girl first, is that okay?" Aya was referring to the young girl who had just escaped from the clutches of the devil and was now squatting on the ground, disheveled and crying loudly.

"Yeah, okay." Jasmine nodded. She couldn't let the group of ferocious men around her do such a thing.

"Then, return the clothes to me tomorrow." Aya said, "Then, let's talk about what we didn't finish talking about last time."

"...Okay, I understand." Upon hearing this, Jasmine fell into depression again. At this time, Aya had already turned her attention in another direction—the hotel that was burned down by the fire.

A bold idea came to her mind.

Dragon Kingdom Maple Moon Territory, Kelmais City Adventurer's Guild

Knock! Knock!

Aya knocked on the door, and after less than five seconds, the door was immediately opened.

"Mr. Levi, you are here. Please come in." The door was opened by a very strong middle-aged man. He stretched out his hand to point Aya to the empty seat in the room.

There were seven people in the room—four men and three women. Among them were Monica, the captain of the Moon Shadow Squad, whom Aya knew, and Lena, the housekeeper of the Duke of Maple Moon.

Aya found an empty seat and sat down. The woman sitting next to her immediately greeted her.

"Hello, nice to meet you." She was an old lady who looked very kind, probably in her fifties or sixties. Her hair was completely white, and her face was full of wrinkles, but her back was not hunched, so she looked very energetic.

"I am Charlotte Lemeya, the high priestess of the Kelmais City Temple." The old woman said. She was wearing very simple clothes without any decoration. No one expected her to hold such a prominent identity as the high priestess.

"Hello, you can just call me Levi, ma'am." Aya replied with a smile.

"Let me introduce myself first." As he said that, the man who opened the door for Aya stood up.

"My name is Randy Lamore, and I'm currently serving as the president of the Adventurer's Guild in Kelmais City."

He was about 1.8 meters tall, looked very strong, and exuded the aura of a warrior. He must be a retired adventurer or soldier.

"And this is the agent of the Colswaite family, the housekeeper of the Duchess of Maple Moon, Miss Lena Nollank." Lena nodded to Aya, and Aya waved in response.

Aya had known this lady when she was in the Duchess' Palace and knew that she was the right-hand person of Duchess Operan.

"And this is the mayor, Mr. Parmish Aizas."

Although he was the mayor, he was introduced behind the agent, Miss Lena. It seemed that the mayor of this city did not have a high status.

Aya made some guesses while greeting him. The man nodded vigorously and wiped his sweat with a handkerchief. He looked very nervous.

He was a little bit fat, with a beer belly like most 40-year-old urban office workers. He was clean-shaven and had no double chin, but his body was still round.
