The Author's POV
Chapter 699
The room was beautifully illuminated by a glittering chandelier placed in the middle of the ceiling.
Click―!
The handle on the door to the room clicked as it was opened, and a moment later, a tall, graceful figure dressed in black clothing that were rather revealing entered the room, casting about.
Priscilla Pertinol didn't look around as she quietly walked toward the far end of the room, where a large window stood.
Arriving at the window, by her side, was a massive, 10-foot-tall glass pane that was gently tilted toward the side of the wall.
Reflected in the mirror was a graceful figure with long pink hair that reached the ends of her back, stopping right above her waistline. Two thin horns protruded from the top of her forehead, separating her hair and leaving her unable to hide her pristine looks that seemed to make any man drool.
Her face was carefully composed in an almost-statuesque placidity, absent even of the slightest emotion as her red eyes gazed past through the window.
"How many people have decided to sign up for the task?"
In the moment that she opened her mouth, the area behind her warped, and a black figure appeared out of thin air, with one knee to the ground and a respectful expression.
"We've received several applicants so far."
"A rough estimate."
"About a hundred or so."
Priscilla's delicate brows furrowed ever so slightly, unable to disguise her annoyance.
"This little?"
"Yes...it appears as though the other houses have put up similar quests."
"I see."
Priscilla gave a curt nod, the hint of a frown on her lips indicating that she did not appreciate having her hand forced in this manner.
"Looks like they caught on to my intentions."
"It appears so..."
The servant answered, his head lowering and his voice becoming quieter.
"What do you plan on doing? Will you still proceed?"
"..."
Silence filled the room as Priscilla contemplated. Originally, she had anticipated having more than a thousand different participants join her on this quest.
It wasn't just about her fame and good looks that attracted people to join her mission; it was also the fact that the monetary reward was high.
