Knowing the situation had changed, Ming grabbed Chunji's wrist and carried her in a princess carry before she could react.
"They're going to jump!"
"Hey hey hey hey... wait a minute, Mikoto-chan!"
Before anyone could react, Ming swiftly and decisively jumped out of the window with Chunji and escaped.
Aisha, her face contorted with rage, turned to Belle and exclaimed, "You bastard, you actually have accomplices?!"
After seeing Chunji leave, Belle restrained Aisha for a few more moments before breaking free of Aisha's hold and retreating through the doorway!
"Stop right there! Tell me where you're taking Chun-hime!"
Aisha followed, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't keep up with Belle's speed.
But whenever she was about to lose her, Belle seemed to "wait" for a while before disappearing again.
"Tch! A bait?"
Aisha easily saw through such an obvious baiting tactic, but she had no time to worry about anything else. By the time she chased after Haruhime downstairs, she had already vanished.
Even knowing now that she's a decoy, we must keep chasing her. At the very least, we must capture her and find out Chun Ji's location.
And so, a chase broke out in the streets and alleys of the pleasure district. As Belle fled, more and more members of the Ishtar Familia who discovered the situation joined the battle.
Belle jumped and ran between floors and streets, causing chaos throughout the entire Pleasure Street.
The sounds of arresting troublemakers echoed everywhere.
This was intentional on her part, a way to completely divert Ishtar's attention and clear her of suspicion from others. And her own version of herself, who didn't exist on this timeline, was the perfect "culprit."
She trailed her pursuers, turned a corner, and suddenly stopped in front of a dark alley.
A huge shadow, two meters tall and with a waist circumference of two meters, emerged from the passage.
Belle gripped the dagger, ready for battle.
Phryne stormed out, carrying a large axe. Belle could see a shoe print below her chest, and it seemed that her bones were slightly deformed.
Frini opened her massive mouth, letting saliva and blood drip onto the ground: "So it's you, buddy of that guy? His accomplice."
Belle asked, "Who are you referring to?"
Freni roared, "Enough nonsense! If it's not you, it's no one else! Die!"
She roared, wielding her giant axe to slice through the houses along the way, hacking away at the crumbling rocks with each stroke.
Boom!
The ground shattered, and rocks flew everywhere.
Belle leaped back, casually shattering the flying pebbles. Just as she was about to retreat, she saw Aisha wielding a large sword and slashing horizontally towards her.
Belle raised her dagger to block the giant blade, using the force to propel herself sideways. With a light touch of her toes, she dashed to the other side of the alley.
"All you do is run away!"
Aisha gave chase immediately, but Phryne was even faster, her body like a tank, smashing through roadside houses and taking a shortcut to block Belle's path.
"Fire Bolt!"
Belle spread her five fingers and unleashed a bolt of fire lightning at Frini.
"You think magic of this level would be effective against me?!"
Flint slapped away the flames, but when the fire disappeared, Belle was no longer in sight.
"Damn it! Running around like a rabbit!"
She looked around and then resumed her chase, following Aisha's retreating figure.
……
The top floor of the Tower of Babel.
Freya held her wine glass, gazing at the Pleasure Street Tower that seemed to be right beside her. In the quiet night, the occasional bursts of firelight were as conspicuous as fireflies in the darkness.
"Her soul is shining..."
"Ah, whose child is she? I want her so badly, I want to snatch her away and hold her in my arms."
Freya squeezed her pair of jade bamboos together, rubbing them against each other, one hand covering her face, her eyes glazed over.
Ota stood quietly to one side, seemingly completely unconcerned about the goddess's disgraceful state. He watched the bustling battlefield with eyes as calm as still water.
"Lady Freya, do you need our help?"
Freya pondered for a long time, then sighed: "Don't let other women touch that child. I want to see her fight bravely again."
"Yes……"
……
Joy Street, Sky Garden.
This is the top floor of the Huanlou, modeled after the Tower of Babel.
A starlight rose, and Xia Jia, with two girls, stood in the perfect viewing spot.
Metlujah immediately stood at the edge of the building, her gaze fixed on the girl running through the street:
"Ah, Bell! My Bell! Just like her father, she's a child who's good at running away!"
Alfia, who had been possessed by her son, followed: "Don't mention her father. Even now, when I see those red eyes, I feel like my ears are filled with noise."
Metluth ignored her sister's complaints, her eyes fixed on Belle:
"Oh! So Bell is a girl? I thought she was a boy."
"Don't you even know the gender of your own child?" he thought to himself.
Alfia explained, "She is Bell from another world, and perhaps Bell in this world would be a boy."
Xia Jia asked playfully, "So here's the question: using Belle's blood from a parallel world as a trigger, whose mother is the woman summoned?"
Alfia and Metluja were both stunned.
"Yes, who am I?"
Alfia's forehead throbbed: "You idiot! If you had remembered the child's gender, this problem wouldn't exist!"
Metluth stuck out her tongue and hugged Miko: "Hehe, it's okay, I like both Bell and older sister."
Alfia ruffled Metluth's hair and felt relieved.
Of course, Shaka was well aware of this problem. He did not yet have the ability to summon characters from parallel worlds. The current Metluja was undoubtedly a soul brought down from the heavens of this world.
The two watched with great interest as Belle led a large group of fighting prostitutes around.
They engaged in battle at times and fled at others, taking the art of delaying time and attracting attention to the extreme.
Finally, they were surrounded by Ishtar and her entire group.
Metluth bit her handkerchief, her eyes filled with worry:
"Won't she get hurt? Can she really win against so many powerful adventurers?"
Alfia looked at the determined young girl holding a dagger in the firelight and said proudly:
"Don't worry, I've planted the seeds. This is her graduation exam and a trial. If she gets through it, she'll be able to live well on her own even if she returns to her original world."
Metluth's gaze remained fixed on the girl who was struggling and parrying attacks from among the adventurers:
“My Belle, you’ve grown up to be able to stand on your own two feet. I’m so disappointed that I wasn’t there for you.”
Chapter 345 You still say it has nothing to do with the armored man...
In an alley in the pleasure district, Ishtar led most of her clan back home.
With the help of Phryne, who had rushed back to provide support, they successfully surrounded Belle here, and now they were locked in a stalemate, weapons raised and looking menacing.
Belle was panting heavily. She had become accustomed to surviving time and time again in Alfia's so-called desperate situations, so she didn't even use any stamina potions, letting her physical strength be consumed little by little.
She looked at the fifty-odd high-ranking adventurers surrounding her and smiled with satisfaction:
He thought to himself: That way, no one will notice Haruhime's side.
Upon seeing Ishtar's return, Aisha reported apologetically, "I'm sorry, Lady Ishtar, I failed to keep an eye on Haruhime."
Ishtar didn't look at Aisha, and said calmly, "It's not your fault. After all, no one expected that two Level 1 adventurers would appear in the city overnight."
She gazed intently at Belle, seeing something special about her. Perhaps it was because the goddess of beauty had a unique sensitivity to superior souls, but she wanted to possess this girl at first sight.
"Who are you? Whose child are you? Are you the one who kidnapped my precious treasure?"
Belle remained silent, holding the dagger and staring intently at Phryne.
Ishtar scoffed:
"What a stubborn child! Even now, you still won't give up?"
"Moreover, even if you obtain Chun Ji, she cannot switch sects unless I agree, and even her magic will be sealed by me. There is no point in you doing this."
She tempted him as if she were persuading an ignorant child:
"If you agree to join my familia, then I might consider releasing Haruhime. After all, that's just a temporary buff, far less valuable than an adventurer like you who's already in the game."
