Abyssal Chronicles-Chapter 90 - 91

In the eastern part of the Cold Winter Forest,

A girl with stunning pink hair and a cute youthful face is holding a black magic lamp, speeding through the Cold Winter Forest, heading towards the eastern inland...

For most people on the Ancita Continent, coming to the Cold Winter Forest at night would undoubtedly be a suicidal move.

though even coming during the daytime wouldn’t be much better.

Humans lack strong night vision,

However, the night is the natural hunting ground for abyssal demons. If encountering an abyssal demon during the day means nine deaths out of ten, then meeting one at night would mean certain death...

But,

At this moment, the girl who had entered the forest showed no fear. Not long after entering the forest, she began to run wildly...

Naturally, the abyssal demons noticed the girl with a powerful fighting spirit,

However,

Unexpectedly, the abyssal demons did not launch a hysterical, terrifying attack on her as they usually would. Instead, after taking a quick glance at the pink-haired girl, they chose to ignore her and returned to their daily routines.

Some abyssal demons even kindly helped to drive away any monsters that stood in the girl’s path.

The dense fog in the Cold Winter Forest also did not affect the girl’s speed in the slightest.

Clearly, this was not the first time the pink-haired girl had come to the Cold Winter Forest. She was quite familiar with the place...

The girl was Qiu Mingtong, the commander of the Autumn Corps from the Black Rose family. Like Sebastian, she was an orphan of the human race who had grown up in the Cold Winter Forest,

She was naturally very familiar with the forest, and returning to the Cold Winter Forest was no different from going home.

After receiving instructions from Yumo, Qiu Mingtong took advantage of the moonlight and sneaked into the depths of the Cold Winter Forest. The reason for doing this at night was to avoid being seen by others, as there were still quite a few people from the Marquis soldier near the fortress, and her position as a commander didn’t suit her to disappear in broad daylight.

"I have to hurry."

Lady Yumo has been waiting for a long time,

To make Lady Yumo wait any longer would be very impolite...

After mumbling a few words of urgency,

Qiu Mingtong completely released the bindings of her fighting spirit and dashed toward the interior of the forest...

After a long sprint, Qiu Mingtong finally arrived at her destination,

Which was where the former Hall of Ten Thousand Demon temple had been located! Well, the ancient palace had now vanished without a trace, replaced by a simple yet exquisite wooden house.

Although she knew that Yumo had successfully transformed, not being able to see the familiar, spectacular sight still made Qiu Mingtong feel a hint of sadness.

However,

Soon, Qiu Mingtong brushed away the sadness in her eyes, straightened her clothes, and approached the beautiful black-haired woman in front of the house.

The black-haired woman was beautiful yet unfamiliar. However, upon sensing the familiar crimson shadow power emanating from the woman and seeing the dancing bloody-red butterfly on her shoulder, Qiu Mingtong instantly realized the woman’s identity.

As such,

The pink-haired girl’s face became extremely serious. She respectfully approached the black-haired girl, lowered her head, and spoke apologetically, "I’m sorry, Lady Yumo, I’m late."

But,

Yumo didn’t really mind that Qiu Mingtong was late, after all, she understood the difficulties Qiu Mingtong faced. Instead, when she saw the usually emotionless girl showing a guilty expression, Yumo couldn’t help but give a wry smile. "It’s alright, Little Tong. I’m not blaming you. There’s no need for this. By the way, it’s been a while. How have things been with you at Duke’s place?"

"Very good. The Duke treats me very well."

"That’s good to hear." Yumo nodded slightly.

At that time, entrusting the orphans they had rescued from the cold winter forest to them seemed to be a good decision. As Yumo sensed the powerful seventh-tier fighting energy within Qiu Mingtong’s body, she couldn’t help but cover her mouth and chuckle like a mother.

Just think about it -

Little Tong is so young, and she had already reached the seventh tier.

How could those Fortress guys be so weak...

"Oh, speaking of which, did you bring that thing?"

"Yes, I brought everything, Lady Yumo."

With that, Qiu Mingtong unloaded the heavy Warhammer from her back, as well as a huge black package, and handed the package to Yumo. Compared to the package, Qiu Mingtong looked quite petite, but carrying it seemed effortless for her. Her small frame was filled with strength.

"Lady Yumo! Everything you need is inside!"

"Oh, well done, Little Tong! You’re amazing!"

After taking a look at the contents of the package, Yumo couldn’t help but praise her.

Upon hearing Yumo’s compliment, Qiu Mingtong couldn’t help but show a cute smile.

"Thank you for your praise, Lady Yumo."

After saying that, Qiu Mingtong seemed to remember something and couldn’t help but ask, "So, Lady Yumo, you mentioned earlier that you needed my help with something. What is it?"

Hearing this, Yumo slowly raised her hand to her chin.

"Well, it’s actually not a big deal. When you go back and see that old man, Sebastian, just give him a good whack on the behind for me."

"Huh? Did Lord Sebastian do something wrong?"

"he said a lot of lies."

"I see. Then, Lady Yumo, why didn’t you take action yourself when Lord Sebastian was here?"

"Well, hehe, I guess he won’t dare to come over for some time," Yumo said coldly.

"Alright, I understand, Lady Yumo!"

Qiu Mingtong said confidently, and immediately, she seemed to demonstrate her strength by vigorously swinging the heavy hammer beside her.

"Don’t worry, Lady Yumo. I guarantee that Lord Sebastian’s behind will blossom!"

Although she didn’t know exactly what Lord Sebastian did wrong, as long as it was Yumo’s command, she would carry it out!

After all, following Yumo’s orders was the very purpose of the Black Rose family’s existence.

Well, it’s true that the Duke sometimes secretly disobeyed and did some bad things~

"Mmm~"

Seeing Qiu Mingtong being so cooperative, a certain vengeful girl nodded her head in satisfaction...

(Just then, a certain old butler far away suddenly felt a chill run down his spine...)

After chatting for a bit, Yumo watched Qiu mingtong leave the barrier. She had initially wanted to have Qiu mingtong stay the night, but considering that she had to go back and manage the tens of thousands-strong Autumn Fall Legion,Yumo abandoned her original plan.

At most, she patted a Seventh-Order Abyssal Demon to carry Qiu mingtong back, preventing the child from being overly exhausted.

Afterward, Yumo returned to the cabin and brought the large bag of supplies into the kitchen.

In the next moment, countless blood-red butterflies fluttered behind Yumo, helping her tie up her scattered black hair into a ponytail and presenting her with a white apron.

Donning the apron, Yumo transformed into a charming and beautiful chef.

A surge of Scarlet Shadow power gathered in her right hand, gradually forming a bright red, sharp kitchen knife. At the same time, countless kitchen utensils from unknown sources were continuously transported into the kitchen by the blood-red butterflies through the window.

"Let’s get to work!"

With a light laugh, Yumo suddenly waved her hand, and the black package burst open.

Various packaged ingredients and an array of seasonings tumbled out from the opening, and a fresh aroma filled Yumo’s nostrils. The moment she smelled it, Yumo revealed a satisfied smile.

With this, she should be able to prepare a nice meal for the girl, right?

Previously, Mengxi had continuously held Yumo’s hand and pleaded, wanting to eat a meal made by her. Unable to resist the girl’s charm, Yumo agreed.

Th𝓮 most uptodate nov𝑒ls are publish𝒆d on ƒreewebηoveℓ.com.

After all, indulging a child occasionally wasn’t a big deal.

Of course, on the other hand, Yumo felt that she couldn’t keep having the protagonist eat fruit to recover.

Although the Winter Forest had meat, it was all from magical beasts. The meat of magical beasts contained energy of a certain intensity, and Mengxi, with her current weak body, couldn’t consume this kind of food. Besides magical beast meat and fruits, Yumo’s cabin had no other ingredients.

So, out of necessity, Yumo asked Qiu mingtong to bring some suitable ingredients for recuperating patients.

Fortunately, Qiu mingtong was very reliable.

The timing of the delivery was just right to make dinner.

With this thought, Yumo smiled.

Surrounded by blood-red butterflies, she began preparing the ingredients. Although she wasn’t a master chef, Yumo was capable of cooking simple dishes, at least better than Liyu, whose cooking was dangerous.

In any case,

’I hope the heroine will like it.’

Yumo thought inwardly.

As Yumo enthusiastically started cooking, Mengxi, who had changed into a cute pink rabbit pajama upstairs, tiptoed down the stairs, watching Yumo busily working in the kitchen, exuding wife-like charm.

At this moment, Mengxi didn’t rush over to act spoiled as before but instead quietly stood at the stairway entrance.

"..."

Watching the black-haired girl efficiently cook, Mengxi squinted her eyes slightly, and a trace of doubt emerged in the young girl’s eyes.

…

…

—Is she really an Abyssal Demon?—
