Chapter 454 (1/2)
After putting on a proper act for the audience, I was led away. I feared I might have gone too far, but Raissa seemed happy with the conclusion, so I guess it was fine. I ended up back in the gladiator’s cell. As to where he was, I stole him as a slave and sent him back to Chalm. He’s going to join the army there. No raping women for him. Well, he was still appreciative.
As for me, I had the amulet making me look like him, so even if the helmet had come off, my disguise would have been perfect. I waited for several hours, but when Raissa wasn’t dropped off, I called out to one of the guards.
“Hey! Where is my dog girl? Didn’t I win?”
“Hehe… shut up, slave! Lord Reign is keeping her. Be happy you got to enjoy her when you did!”
I stepped back in shock, but then I realized how stupid I was being. It wasn’t that surprising that Lord Reign would lie to a slave. As for keeping Raissa, she was a valuable tool. He put on a show to bring me out, but I didn’t show. Rather than let a slave destroy her completely, he wanted to keep the bait and perhaps reuse it. I let out a sigh and opened up a portal.
“Hey, what are you doing!” The guard called out in shock.
I didn’t respond as I left the prison and let the portal close behind me. There was no use staying here any longer if Raissa was never going to be brought. I was now in the inn in the miner’s town. This is where I had left the girls while I made an attempt to save Raissa. Since my previous plan had failed, we were going to have to come up with something else.
“Master… is everything okay?” Lydia asked worriedly.
“We’re going to have to switch to Plan B. Celeste, did you get a look at Raissa during the match?”
“Was that before or after Master creampied her!” Celeste responded, puffing out her cheeks.
“Eh? What’s this?”
