After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply

"Let's use these hands, capable of purifying all contamination, to save the fallen Lin Xi!"

Lin Da recalled the details he had just seen in the mirror, the 20th floor of the Great Mystery Continent, Harmony Forest.

Those who reach there can be called the Sun Adventure Group.

Merely the 20th floor, Lin Da was confident he could get there within half a year.

Now, he had obtained clues about his sister.

All that remained was to keep moving forward and accumulate the strength needed to punish his sister.

If those Magical Creatures in the mirror were his sister's subordinates, then he would lead a team stronger than those Magical Creatures, defeat his sister's army of Magical Creatures, and make her admit defeat wholeheartedly.

...

Meanwhile.

The 20th floor of the World Tree, Harmony Forest.

Lin Xi was surrounded by Magical Creatures like stars around the moon, like a leader inspecting a school, with a group of nodding and bowing lackeys behind her.

She held a slightly greenish apple-like Fruit of the World Tree in her hand, chewing it bit by bit.

Then, with a bitter face, she spat out the pulp, "Why isn't it ripe yet, even after waiting for so long..."

"General, there are about eight months left until the 'Harvest Festival'. By then, all the Fruits of the World Tree will be ripe,"

Lady Bai Mian said with a smile, "With your strength, you can definitely capture all the adventurers who come here in one fell swoop."

"Lin Da might come too," Lin Xi said, hands behind her back, hopping along the forest path.

That black spade-shaped tail was swishing back and forth.

Clearly, she was in a good mood.

After more than two years of training in the Demon King's castle, Lin Xi was finally entrusted with an important task, becoming the Demon General stationed on the 20th floor.

She could also return to White Dove City to visit old friends.

"Given Lin Da's preachy nature, he's definitely going to hit me once he sees me like this,"

Lin Xi thought self-awarely, her slender fingers with red-painted nails resting on her delicate chin.

She knew she had "fallen."

But she didn't resist this sense of pleasure.

Powerful magic power, the long life of a Demon General, the promises made to her by His Majesty the Demon King...

If Lin Da willingly submitted to the Demons, he too would be awarded a seat among the Demon Generals.

His Majesty the Demon King told Lin Xi: this matter, he would never lie about.

After the Demons rule over the continent, both siblings would gain eternal life.

So, why not fall into corruption and become one of the Demons instead of a sorrowful adventurer?

Lin Xi made the choice for Lin Da.

She wanted to bring Lin Da along with her into corruption!

And after all, it was Lin Da's fault she turned out this way!

Lin Da, a mere Healer, together with the fool Lia and green-tea Aiko, aimed for the top level.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

If her teammates were those five-star level characters that Lin Da talked about, she might have seen hope.

But the fool Lia, never!

Sooner or later, she would fall at the World Tree, becoming just another nameless tomb.

Lin Xi didn't have many desires.

To live a simple life with Lin Da was enough for her.

And when she initially made a wish to the Dawn Goddess, adding eternal life to her request was just to aim high, so she could bargain better.

Lin Xi, unable to see the wish content of others in the log, didn't understand the specifics of wishing logic, just thought that more was better, and if the Dawn Goddess disagreed, she'd ask for less.

Looking at the outcome now... adding the term 'eternal life' had been the right choice.

Lin Xi proudly puffed out her chest. Without the term 'eternal life,' she wouldn't have been able to meet His Majesty the Demon King and become one of the Twelve Belongings.

The Twelve Belongings can be understood as a contract with a High-Level Witch.

What sets them apart from ordinary witches is that the Twelve Belongings have the Demon King's Blood within them, significantly increasing their lifespan, and preventing them from turning into Catastrophe Beasts.

Lia was precisely the twelfth of these Belongings.

To put it nicely, she is called General Gluttony; to put it harshly, she is the weakest among the Twelve Belongings.

But dealing with a level 40 Moon rank adventurer, Lia believed she was still up to the task.

From the spying spell she had just felt, she feared that Lin Da had successfully reached the fourth level.

By making a wish to the Dawn Goddess, she found his location.

Lia conjured an image of Lin Da's smiling face in her mind.

She had almost finished dealing with all the matters at hand.

She could consider meeting her brother now.

With a flash of light from the Space Ring on her hand, her entire appearance transformed.

The hollowed-out armor disappeared

and was replaced by a black overall dress.

The upper half was a white lace blouse.

On her legs, she wore thick stockings suitable for the cooler autumn weather, and she donned a pair of big black-framed glasses on her face, holding a copy of the must-read for adventurers, "Compendium of Demon Knowledge."

Lia stood prettily, showing not a hint of corruption, perfectly resembling a pure college beauty from some renowned adventure university.

"Lady Bai Mian, look, Lin Da won't recognize me now, right?"

Lia did not want to be recognized by Lin Da and lectured harshly.

Given His Majesty the Demon King's terrifying power, it was only a matter of time before Lin Da would surrender; she was not in a rush to get her hands on him just yet.

Every moment she waited would, in the future, transform into a blazing fire.

Lady Bai Mian looked at her disguise in surprise and applauded, "Incredible! As expected of Lady Lia, even I think you look like an adventurer, not a demon!"

Smack smack.

A group of Magical Creatures also clapped along.

"But, Lady Lia…" Lady Bai Mian hesitated, "With your status, it might be dangerous if you were discovered entering White Dove City, right?"

"I won't stay too long, just long enough to meet Lin Da."

Lia glared at Lady Bai Mian, dissatisfied, "Why do you keep interfering, are you trying to steal my brother from me?"

"I wouldn't dare…"

"That's right, you come too!"

Lia giggled, "I'll be a passing noble family's adventurer miss and you'll be my attendant. Together, we'll be much more convincing!"

"Eh… eh?! I'm also going? What if my identity gets exposed…" Lady Bai Mian waved frantically.

"It won't! There were many guests at Lin Da's house that day; we'll just blend in," Lia assured.

"Guests…?"

"It's an adventurer's custom," Lia said proudly, hands on hips. "The newspapers said my brother is already level 19, and after passing the fourth level, he's definitely reached level 20."

"And as per the adventurer's custom, once you reach level 20, you throw a party at your home, inviting other Rock-level Squads as a social etiquette!"

Reflecting on this, Lia spoke with slight regret, "I originally thought Lin Da would be around level 10 when entering the fourth level, but he turned out to be level 20…"

She had sent the Anthropomorphic Demon to intimidate Lin Da and let him experience the terror of the Demon Lord's Army; unexpectedly, she had ended up aiding him instead.

However, Lia didn't dwell on it much. The more outstanding Lin Da was, the more the Demon King would acknowledge his potential. In that case, not just a spot among the Demon Generals, but even among the Four Kings could be possible.

Then, hand in hand with Lady Bai Mian, she used the Teleportation Stone and left the twentieth level.

Emerging from the World Tree in a certain city, they boarded a carriage and headed for White Dove City.

Outside, the sunlight was just perfect.

The pink-haired girl swayed her little feet wrapped in black stockings in the carriage, looking through the window at the clear blue sky.

Thinking that she would see her brother in a few days, a beautiful smile with shallow dimples appeared on the young girl's face.
