The Temple of the Sea God quickly arrived at the gate of the city of Moria. The heroes inside the temple must have been quite surprised. Despite being in a state of war, they had easily passed through the endless plains without any obstacles and broke through to the forefront of the enemy fortress.
Countless monsters swarmed like tides, although they were all small fries that could be defeated with a single attack. Yet, they were still overwhelmed by the overwhelming number. After all, there were only four members in the hero group.
One person decided to stay in the temple while another faced thousands of enemy soldiers. As they watched their three teammates leave, they activated the temple's self-destruction technique with a satisfied smile.
Another person used all their strength to finally break open the tightly locked city gate, unaware that the gate itself was a trap. There was a hidden door on the inside of the gate that would descend from above. They used their own body to hold up this heavy hidden door and watched their teammates leave. Although they knew they would soon be crushed, they still smiled and raised their thumbs up.
Yet another person encountered an unexpected opponent in front of the castle where the Sea God resided. It was the former captain of the hero group, who, for some reason, was wearing the armor of the demon clan. "Don't mind me, hurry and go. Only you can defeat that demon," the former vice-captain screamed miserably, sending the girl into the final level.
In the end, wielding a radiant holy sword, the girl faced the most intelligent and powerful of the Four Heavenly Kings of the demon clan, the Sea King named Camey, or as you know, me...
...
Can you imagine such a tragic scene?
What a joke! Do you know how much money it would cost to create such a grand spectacle? I haven't had a proper meal in nearly half a month!
Standing on the city wall, my eyelid twitched violently.
Ranked 87th in the Continental Hero Group, the servant of the Sea God, and possessing the holy sword of the hero. Compared to the wild rumors about ordinary demons foaming at the mouth, what can my subtle fear of heights really amount to?
"Ah...the weather is so chilly today. Cough, cough, I feel a bit of pain in my stomach. Maybe I caught a cold? Wait here for me, I'll go home and take some medicine before coming back..."
As I spoke, my cheeks and the corners of my mouth also began to twitch. Well, it seems I'm really not feeling well.
"Please don't try to escape, Master," Eldew said calmly.
"Hehe, it's not like I'm trying to escape. I'm really sick, you know."
"Pretending to be cute won't work, and besides, I have medicine here. There's no need to go back to the mansion."
As Eldew spoke, they took out a white medicine bottle and handed it to me.
I silently took the medicine bottle and put it in my pocket.
Damn, this guy really understands me too well. They've already blocked off my retreat early on!
Sighing, I looked again at the Temple of the Sea God, which was getting closer.
"Oh? Isn't this the mobile temple of the hero group 'Servant of the Sea God,' ranked 87th in the continent, who possesses the holy sword?"
I showed a surprised expression.
"How strange, why is it stopped at the gate of the city of Moria? Oh, I see. Big shots like the servants of the Sea God must have been sent by Emperor Komya to negotiate with the Demon King. It's not good, not good at all! You guys, why haven't you opened the city gates yet? Don't delay the afternoon tea time of the holy sword hero and the Demon King..."
"Master, it's no use trying to avoid reality. The challenge letter is still stuck there."
Meruvie brutally tried to bring me back to reality.
However, how could His Majesty the Sea King return to reality so easily?
I still had a serene expression and an elegant smile on my face.
So, Meruvie kicked my shin.
My expression twitched for a moment, but I tried to maintain my composure and lightly patted Meruvie's head.
Meruvie, not accepting this, kicked me again, and I helplessly patted her head once more.
Meruvie kicked me again, and I patted her head again. Meruvie kicked me again, and I patted her head again. Meruvie kicked me again, and I patted her head again. Meruvie kicked me again, and I patted her head again.
I started fighting back against Meruvie."Eldew, don't just stand there with that idiotic expression on your face, do something to stop this! Are you really just going to watch your master get beaten up by your sister?" Meruvie finally stopped her terrifying rampage, filled with rage and sorrow.
Of course, I held back. How could I not be able to defeat a maid who is shorter than me? Although she did manage to land a punch that made my nose crooked, it was only because I held back too much.
Speaking of which, Meruvie mentioned something about the trident on the city wall earlier. When I saw that, I couldn't help but laugh. Come on, can someone just take it down? Hahaha. The flag with the insignia on it flew away in less than five minutes. You should hang it more securely or put it in a sheltered place.
I really don't understand how cute those kids in the challenge letter are. Unbeknownst to me, the Temple of the Sea, with those adorable kids, was already close by.
"Eldew, give me the voice transmission shell."
"What are you planning to do, Master?"
Eldew seemed completely unresponsive to my command. Such an disobedient maid, no wonder Meruvie doesn't have any respect for me. This maid leader didn't set a good example.
"We need to call for help, what else can we do in this situation? We have to call the guards, right?"
You're asking me what to do, can't you figure out such an obvious thing yourself?
"I don't think the guards will handle this matter."
"Huh? Why? Aren't we supposed to seek help from the guards when we're in trouble?"
"What a nostalgic phrase, my mother said the same thing to me when I was six years old. It seems like Master's intelligence is similar to mine when I was six."
Eldew said with a sigh.
"No wonder people used to call my sister dumb when she was a child."
Meruvie said with the same tone.
While my maids and I were earnestly discussing how to repel the enemy on the city wall, there was a new development in the Temple of the Sea.
It stopped moving.
Then, the doors of the main hall of the Temple of the Sea opened, and a cannon emerged.
Huh? A cannon?
I rubbed my eyes, and to my surprise, it was no hallucination. It was indeed a large magic cannon made of magic crystals.
They had arrived at their destination, stopped, and before any people came out, they pushed out the magic cannon...
Just how impatient are these heroes?!
Even if it's a siege, they should at least introduce themselves and engage in a lively exchange of insults between the city walls and the ground, right? Why did they just take out the cannon directly?
Boom.
Before I could finish complaining in my mind, a deafening sound suddenly rang out, and the strong wind that blew from a distance threw my normally obedient hair into a chaotic mess.
The Hero's Party wasted no time and began their attack.
