Abyssal Chronicles-Chapter 107 - 108 Entering the City

Amidst the protection of the Black Rose Family knights, an enchanting young lady dressed in a delicate black gown took her place on the back of a warhorse, entering the City of Wind as the crowd gazed at her in awe.

With the black-haired young lady’s arrival, the onlookers who had been buzzing with chatter moments ago fell silent in unison, leaving the scene utterly still.

Everyone present, much like Benjamin, focused their attention on the striking black-haired girl.

She had a slender figure and possessed enviable, satin-like black hair, with crimson tips that resembled fresh blood. Though her face was veiled, her unveiled eyes were mesmerizing and captivating, causing those who looked into her sapphire irises to momentarily forget how to breathe.

The soldiers, who spent their days cooped up in their barracks training, seemed as if their eyes might pop out of their sockets.

"Who is she?!" Benjamin couldn’t help but ask himself.

The unexpected appearance of a young lady among the Black Rose Family knights inevitably puzzled everyone. However, upon seeing the girl with such beautiful eyes, Benjamin’s heart became restless, and a wave of heat swept over his body. Despite the cold winter season, he suddenly felt warm, and his heart began to race.

Previously, Benjamin was quite averse to greeting the Black Rose Family members. However, at this moment, any trace of resistance had vanished! In the next instant, driven by his burning desire, Benjamin steered his horse, worth tens of thousands of star coins, towards the members of the Black Rose Family.

More accurately, he headed towards the stunning black-haired woman.

As a normal man, what would be the first reaction to seeing such an enticing beauty? For Benjamin, there was only one reaction: flirt!

Thus, completely focused on the black-haired girl, Benjamin ignored the surrounding knights of the Black Rose Family and failed to notice the darkness gradually rising on their faces.

"Greetings, beautiful lady. I am Benjamin representative of the Marquis family. May I have the honor of knowing your name?" Benjamin asked courteously, giving a bow, and then flashed what he believed to be a radiant and sunny smile.

He then extended his right hand, evidently intending to kiss the young lady’s hand in accordance with noble etiquette. After his inquiry, the faces of the surrounding Black Knights were shrouded in darkness. Had they been on the Black Rose Family’s territory, Benjamin would have been thrown into a river to feed the fish by now...

However, the black-haired girl, our protagonist, didn’t seem to be offended. Instead, she tilted her head playfully and looked at the nobleman before her. This black-haired young lady was none other than our and only ruler of the abyssal demon’s ,Yumo.

Upon stepping into a large city in another world for the first time, Yumo felt a small surge of excitement and curiosity about her surroundings.

Initially, Qiu Mingtong had suggested Yumo sit inside a carriage to avoid "attracting attention," but in order to better observe the surroundings, she chose to ride a horse.

Another reason was that Yumo didn’t like the bumpy ride in a carriage.

And so, after subtly altering her appearance, Yumo wore a veil, rode a horse, and was escorted by the knights of the Black Rose family.

--

’Hm?’

’Is this the formal greeting etiquette among the nobles of the Snow Night Empire?’

’It seems...’

’Not that great, huh?’

Looking at the man in front of her who was bending over and extending his hand, Yumo couldn’t help but mutter in her heart. After all, having seen Sebastian’s standard etiquette, Benjamin’s action now seemed somewhat comical to Yumo.

Then, Yumo, who had the old habit, began to carefully sense the other party’s strength.

Young people are the future after all~

Then, as expected, Yumo was disappointed =-=

’So weak, only at the early stage of the third level...’

After muttering in her heart, Yumo couldn’t help but show a look of disdain.

On the other side, having performed the invitation etiquette but still unable to get a response from Yumo, Benjamin felt annoyed and lowered his voice slightly with some displeasure,

"Miss, not returning the greeting is quite impolite."

"Hm?"

Hearing this, Yumo furrowed her brows slightly.

Ah, it seems there is such a saying.

Moreover, is he trying to kiss my hand?

Although in the past, Seba had sent her many books about etiquette, Yumo, being a building, had no interest in understanding them. As a result, Yumo was not very clear about the various etiquettes on the mainland.

’Enmm, if it’s about kissing the hand...’

Yumo frowned slightly,

She didn’t like being kissed by strangers, especially men,

Even if there was a layer of black gauze gloves on her hand...

Just as Yumo was slightly conflicted,

Qiu Mingtong, who was guarding Yumo, couldn’t stand it any longer and slowly rode her warhorse next to Benjamin.

Glancing at the toad who was still bent over, waiting for Yumo’s response, Qiu Mingtong’s eyes revealed a hint of cold killing intent.

- Remember, don’t let those bugs get close to master Yumo! -

Recalling the Duke’s words, Qiu Mingtong narrowed her eyes slightly.

’Your Grace,’

’This should count as a bug, right?’

Although she had the urge to smash Benjamin directly, considering they were in public, it was better not to cause a scene for the sake of the Black Rose family’s reputation. At least, not blatantly...

Narrowing her amber eyes, a trace of terrifying fighting spirit slowly emerged from Qiu mingtong and transformed into an invisible blade that aimed at the warhorse beneath Benjamin...

The next moment,

Accompanied by a frightened neigh, the scared warhorse forcefully kicked~

Benjamin: ’?! ?! !’

Under the unprepared gazes of everyone,

Benjamin, who was still waiting to kiss the girl’s jade hand, suddenly looked baffled as he was sent flying into the air and then plunged headfirst into the frozen moat...

"Clang~"

Benjamin, who had landed headfirst, inexplicably passed out, unable to get up...

--

Seeing this scene, Yumo looked at the culprit beside her with a complex expression, Qiu Mingtong, who had a "none of my business" look on her face.

"little tong...."

However,

Before Yumo could say anything more, Qiu Mingtong took the initiative to speak, somewhat "unhappily" saying to Yumo:

"master Yumo, do you remember your current identity?"

"I’m, now, a lady of the Black Rose Family!?"

"Not just a lady! It’s a Young lady!"

Qiu Mingtong corrected with some excitement,

"Your arranged identity from the Duke is the young miss of our Black Rose family. You’re the sister of Duke Xiao! You’re a noble among nobles! That kind of guy just now was nothing more than a lowly toad. He’s not qualified to give you a hand kiss. You can totally ignore him and just walk away."

Qiu Mingtong explained seriously,

"I see, well, alright. But, there are really many people here..."

Looking around at the people who wanted to come up and chat with her, Yumo couldn’t help but frown.

Having been cooped up in the Winter Forest for so long,

She wasn’t used to being watched by so many people.

Moreover, these gazes, mostly filled with a certain type of desire, made Yumo feel a bit displeased.

If she had known,

She would have preferred staying in the carriage...

Upon hearing Yumo’s complaints, Qiu Mingtong cast an unhappy glance at the eager onlookers. She pulled out a sinister-looking heavy hammer from behind and swung it threateningly. The Black Knights beside her also showed fierce yet polite friendly gazes,

Looking ’amicably’ at the crowd,

Realizing the heavy hostility in Qiu Mingtong and the Black Knights’ eyes, these life-loving nobles and wealthy merchants chose to keep their distance.

Seeing this,

A hint of satisfaction appeared in Qiu Mingtong’s light yellow eyes.

Then, this strong little girl retracted her hostility, respectfully looking at young lady Yumo,

"Well, there’s no helping it. After all, Yumo-sama possesses a transcendent beauty that stands out from the ordinary. Although it’s slightly altered and veiled, it still can’t hide that beauty. Moreover, Miss Yumo wearing a skirt now looks even more beautiful than before~"

Hearing the excitement in Qiu Mingtong’s tone,

Yumo revealed a slightly troubled expression, looking strangely at the exquisite high-end black dress she wore,

"Ah, this..."

My thighs feel so bare, it’s so strange (0-0)

Furthermore,

Wearing a skirt, I always feel like I’ve lost something...

Integrity, maybe?

However,

Glancing at the beautiful dress with the black rose emblem on it, Yumo couldn’t help but show a sweet smile, a hint of admiration surging within her crimson eyes.

To be honest,

It seems,

Quite nice,

Wearing it occasionally doesn’t seem so bad, and the children seem to be happy as well...
