The Primal Hunter
Chapter 676
Jake watched from afar as Dina effortlessly entered the Second Gate – again, brilliant name – and entered the residence of the Second Mistress. He purposefully waited a few minutes before he also made his way there.
Now, if waiting actually helped, Jake didn’t know. The ”people” in Minaga’s Labyrinth were not the smartest, but it was possible some of them could display some level of intelligence when it truly mattered. After all, the Demon Lord seemed like it wasn’t a complete moron.
Walking up to the gate, the two guards at the gate raised their hands to stop him.
”Halt, may I know why you wish to enter the residence of the Second Mistress?” he asked.
”I have something of utmost importance I must discuss with her,” Jake tried, seeing if that would help.
”Without an invitation, I sadly cannot allow you access,” the guard shook his head.
Should have seen that coming, Jake thought. Oh well, I guess I will have to head to a bar and get lucky or maybe sneak in when another visitor comes b-
”Excuse me,” the other guard said as he looked at Jake. ”Do you know a Courtesan by the name of Sylphie?”
Jake’s mouth opened wide for a second before he answered. ”Yes?”
”Ah, in that case, you are naturally welcome. We were informed by the Second Mistress that someone matching your description would come by,” the second guard said as he opened the gate.
”Thanks,” Jake said, still not sure what was going on. Sylphie? A Courtesan? How in the hell did that even…
If something happened to her… we are going full-on murderhobo,Jake told himself as he tried to restrain his bloodlust. Luckily, it didn’t look like he had to be worried. The second he went through the gate, a bird flew out of the primary residence in the room and landed on his head as she greeted him.
”Ree!” she said with excitement.
”Oh, you made a friend?” Jake said, a bit surprised.
”Ree,” Sylphie explained, making Jake nod. Inside the largest building in the room, he saw Dina sit opposite another woman as they looked to be discussing something. Sylphie had told him about how nice the Second Mistress was, but Jake naturally questioned that assessment if he went by the standards of any other natives of the labyrinth. Nevertheless, he knew he would have to go meet her and walked towards the house with Sylphie proudly standing on his head.
He was fully prepared for another conversation that was just him trying to find the right dialogue lines to get a proper response, which was why he was a bit surprised when he entered the room where Dina and this Second Mistress were talking. She was not behind a veil like the other Mistress but was sitting at a table with Dina and casually looked his way when he entered.
”You must be Jake; Sylphie told me a lot about you,” the Second Mistress smiled.
”Greetings, Second Mistress,” Jake said, nodding at her. She felt more animated than the other Mistress just from her change in tone as she spoke, and more than that, her level was a lot higher.
[Second Mistress – lvl 268]
As far as Jake could tell, she was also a human, but there was one other big difference. She gave off an actual aura of power, something the other Mistress had not, and the Sword Saint had also hinted at the other Mistresses all feeling weak. This Second Mistress did not.
