505 Sherlocks Monopoly Plan (1/2)

In the dark tunnel, the sound of dripping water could be heard. In a cube room, a metal railing separated the room into two. Behind the railing was a short fox who had red-hot fur. He was slowly using his tongue to lick his fur. On the other side of the railing was a tall superior Devil.

\”I'm doing a self-introduction. I'm called Sherlock, the Dungeon Lord of Eternal Kingdom. Perhaps you haven't heard about me, but it's alright. We can get to know each other.\”

The fox called Grape combed his own fur and looked at Sherlock. The fox ignored the shy Evelynn behind Sherlock and narrowed his eyes as he said, \”You must have figured out my background. Your efficiency is high.\”

\”It's alright. Your tone reminds me of my pets.\”

Grape asked bewilderedly, \”What pets?\”

\”They are a black kitten called Polio and a parrot called Phoenix. You should know them well. The other one is an old turtle called Frangipani. This could be unfamiliar to you.\”

Grape frowned and said, \”Since you know my identity, you should know the consequences of being insolent. Though Phoenix and Polio are fools, they are my comrades. What are you trying to hint at?\”

\”It's not a hint, I'm just informing you.\” Sherlock smiled and said, \”If you're obedient before I find a way to extract you, I can grant you a status higher than that of a pet. Or you can choose to become a pet like them.\”

\”Is there a third choice?\” Grape tilted his head and asked.

\”Yes.\” Sherlock nodded and said, \”Death.\”

Evelynn grabbed her dress as she walked out of the Dungeon Lord Main Hall. She looked helpless.

The warriors of Eternal Kingdom pointed at her and chatted. Evelynn had just come out of a Mana Formation, so she didn't know what happened. Her memories were blanked out. She entered a Mana Formation and followed Lord Sherlock into her inner world, but she only remembered seeing a fox who was staying in her body. She didn't know what the fox and Sherlock talked about.

It was something important related to her, but she wasn't sure.

Lord Sherlock had Eggface take Evelynn back to her room. He knew that she would be in a daze.

Eggface talked incessantly along the way to comfort Evelynn.

\”Don't worry, it's only a strange creature. Take a look at my huge body, there are lots of strange things in my body.\”

\”What? Are there things in your body?\” Evelynn asked in surprise. Eggface looked normal to Evelynn. It didn't seem like there were things inside Eggface's body.

\”My body is host to the Master of Hades and the Grim Reaper. Don't look at me like that. When I'm serious, even Lord Sherlock is afraid,\” Eggface said confidently and continued to give the power in his body various titles.

Evelynn didn't listen to Eggface. She was brooding over Lord Sherlock's words.

\”Don't worry, I have reached an agreement with the fox in your body.\”

She didn't know about the agreement, but she believed in Lord Sherlock unconditionally.
