"We must stop Miss Limo! Do you understand?!"

""""Yes!!""""

In response to the commander’s directive, the knights’ group thunderously affirmed with an ear-splitting reply.

...

’Sigh…’

’It’s always like this...’

Watching the hundreds-strong, majestic knights’ group move away, Asar couldn’t help but sigh helplessly.

’Really…’

’Every time Miss Limo wants to go on a picnic, the entire Black Rose Knight Order makes a big fuss to stop her.’

’The usually orderly family becomes chaotic because of Miss Limo’s actions, never at peace.’

Seeing this massive, resource-draining scene and watching those once dignified knights become disheveled and embarrassed, Asar couldn’t help but cross his arms and internally criticize.

"Is it necessary? She just wants to go on a picnic. Why stop Miss Limo... Poor Miss Limo, so little freedom."

As usual, Asar kept criticizing internally.

But this time, after a couple of days of grumbling, Asar suddenly raised his eyebrows.

Isn’t it just like the Goddess-chosen Son of Destiny? This smart one’s brain suddenly lit up with an idea.

Hmm,

’Wait a minute?!’

’That’s it! I don’t have to work in Anvika anymore!’

’Many members of the Black Rose family who were injured for Miss Limo before got a month-long medical leave, right?’

’What if I, too, "accidentally" get injured in this Miss Limo rampage incident?’

’Then I can legitimately avoid working in Anvika, right?’

’After all, the Black Rose family, being such a conscientious and morally exemplary force, wouldn’t force an injured person to work, would they?’

’Not only that,’

’But I could also claim a compensation payment?! Then I could just chill without doing anything for over a month!’

’Hahaha, Sometimes My Genius... It’s Almost Frightening!’

Thinking this, the gloominess in Asar’s heart was instantly swept away, replaced by excitement and exhilaration. So, taking advantage of the moment when the surrounding maids and the teacher who taught him cooking were focused on the distant blizzard, Asar sneakily began to retreat step by step towards the exit.

Then,

Open the door,

Close the door,

Run!!

In an instant, Asar, who hadn’t been playing the obedient student for long, madly dashed towards the area of the storm. As his speed increased, Asar gradually became a streak of crimson lightning, swiftly weaving through the buildings.

His maid outfit too was stripped off piece by piece during the high-speed movement, replaced by a set of brand-new black armor, the uniform of the Black Rose Knight Order.

As a maid, Asar of course didn’t have armor from the Black Rose Knight Order. He obtained this outfit thanks to his senior Wanya who was the Duke’s Secretary. Getting a knight’s outfit was just to satisfy Asar’s boyish interest in looking cool. But now, it had become his ultimate disguise.

Disguised as a member of the Black Rose Knights, Asar began to further increase his speed.

Of course,

As the chosen one, his rush to the blizzard area was not just to sneak in a fake injury leave...

More importantly,

There was something in Asar’s heart that he needed to confirm.

After his initial contact with Limo, this question had deeply buried itself in Asar’s heart.

"That Miss Limo…"

’Exactly, what...’

’Is she, or is she not a human?!’

Honestly,

In Asar’s heart, Limo has always been a very special existence.

She seems to hold a lofty position in the Black Rose family, even the Duke has to cajole her. But most members of the Black Rose family, including his immediate superior Wanya, didn’t show much respect for her in private, instead often secretly cursing and mocking.

Mocking aside, the mockery was filled with deep concern.

It always gave Asar a very contradictory feeling.

It always felt like the people of the Black Rose family treated Limo? Like a mischievous pet? But this pet’s status seemed to be even higher than theirs? ’Really strange...’

Faced with such an existence, Asar was undoubtedly curious.

But it was just curiosity, Asar didn’t expend much energy paying attention to this moving disaster in the family, still spending most of his time thinking about how to slack off... no... thinking about how to save the world.

However,

After his last face-to-face encounter with Limo, Asar’s attitude changed.

He began to take this unidentified Miss seriously.

You know, at that time, the oppression Limo gave him was unprecedented. Although she did not release any power, she gave him a suffocating pressure, making his soul tremble wildly.

That indescribable sense of terror still makes Asar shudder. Even when facing the Duke, a peak level 8 warrior, he had never trembled like that.

The feeling Limo gave him was a fear that came from deep within his soul.

Although he didn’t show it, and even slacked off every day, he was still genuinely the chosen one. The existence that could give him such a strong sense of crisis seemed to be only...

"Abyssal Demon. Humanoid Abyssal Demon... Demon King level."

After coming up with such a guess, Asar’s heart was uneasy. Considering the Black Rose family’s always righteous and upright nature, he couldn’t imagine such a family having any connection with an Abyssal Demon. But this sense of terror made Asar unable to let go.

Thus,

Asar wanted to clarify, what exactly was Limo’s existence? Were his previous feelings just an illusion?

However,

Soon, Asar would realize…

This was a decision he would regret bitterly…

...

--

In order to intercept Limo, the Black Rose family chose the northern exit of Roland Gardens as their location, from where Asar deduced that Limo must be heading north. The Black Rose Knight Order trying to stop Limo would surely lead to a conflict.

Once Limo releases her power, whether Asar’s guess is right or wrong will become clear.

Of course,

Asar would not choose to confront Limo directly. If she really is a Demon King-level Abyssal Demon, it would be suicidal for him. Moreover, he is just disguised as a member of the Black Rose Knight Order. If he encounters a group of official knights, the risk of exposure would be extremely high.

Thus,

Asar arrived at a small hill not far from the northern exit, attempting to observe secretly.

However,

As they say, fate is unpredictable, and when Asar excitedly jumped onto the hillside, an unexpected event occurred...

-fuck~-

What appeared before him was not the vast plain he had expected, but a colossal creature that suddenly fell from the sky! The impact and the forceful gusts of the blizzard caused by the beast’s landing blew Asar away, slamming him hard against a huge rock behind him.

"Ouch…"

Asar let out a wail of pain.

Thanks to the Black Rose Knight’s armor, which mitigated the impact, otherwise Asar might have been knocked unconscious on the spot.

’What, what’s happening?!’

Confused, Asar struggled to sit up, looking anxiously ahead, and the moment he saw what was in front of him, he gasped in shock, his heart pounding...

"Is, is this, a mistake?"

Standing in front of Asar was a giant wolf with snow-white fur. The wolf had an enormous body that dominated all beings, with thick and powerful limbs standing like columns holding up the sky, blood-red eyes, and sharp fangs and claws that displayed its majesty and ferocity in exquisite detail.

However, what filled Asar with deep fear and despair was the aura constantly emanating from the giant wolf. It was cold, wild, oppressive, and nearly suffocating with the scent of death.

And this aura, more terrifying and violent than magic power, holy energy, or aura, was the power of Shadow.

Not only that,

The aura of Shadow emanating from the giant wolf was at the eighth level!

’A Demon King-level Abyssal Demon?!’

’Snow Devourer?!’

"I’m done for, my life is over…"
