Diary of Guarding Monster Girls-Chapter 556 - 328 Who are you? (Thanks to Ling Po Jiu Chi, the Alliance Leader!)_3
When Herbert had finally prepared everything and went to find Valentina, he did not locate her immediately.
The ever-reliable Teleportation Gate surprisingly didn’t open next to Miss Hungry Dragon this time.
"Hmm?"
Where did Valentina go?
Fortunately, the Teleportation Gate just stalled for a moment, then appeared out of thin air the next second.
Without much thought, Herbert stepped inside and saw the familiar figure with red hair.
"Haha, I’m back!"
Upon seeing Herbert, Valentina was initially stunned, then she also showed surprise, quickly walking towards him.
"You’re back!"
The red hair fluttered, and their figures quickly drew near.
However, just before they were about to embrace, Herbert suddenly stepped back.
No.
Not only did he step back, but a pair of Blood Wings emerged from Herbert’s back, allowing him to swiftly fly dozens of meters backward!
"Who are you?"
Maintaining a distance from "Valentina," Herbert furrowed his brows tightly, asking in a deep voice: "Are you the Sage?"
He knew that after Valentina received the Dragon of Wisdom’s inheritance, an automated Q&A capability called "Sage" developed in her mind, forcibly unlocking her intelligence.
It was through this ability that she could move between the floors.
But now this feeling... wasn’t right.
"What are you talking about? I am Valentina!"
The dodged Valentina was clearly unhappy, and angrily said, "Why are you avoiding me?!"
"Don’t you know?"
Herbert squinted his eyes, finding the answer from the other’s reaction, secretly sighing in relief.
Thankfully... Valentina hadn’t been possessed by the Dragon of Wisdom.
The Valentina in front of him was someone else!
He shook his head slightly and softly said, "Since you’re not the ’Sage,’ then I’ll ask you again."
"Who... are you really?"
Roar!
Confronted with such doubt, Valentina angrily glared at Herbert, her vertical pupils filled with the rage of being questioned.
"Are you doubting me?"
Herbert’s response was exceptionally calm, indifferently saying, "This is not doubt, I’m certain you’re not her."
"You’re talking nonsense!!!" the Giant Dragon roared.
"Nonsense? You know better than I do if I’m talking nonsense," the Paladin replied impassively.
The two of them stared into each other’s eyes in this intense silence for a while, the atmosphere in the scene extremely oppressive.
But in this situation, Herbert neither escaped nor called for help from other floors.
He merely kept quietly watching "Valentina."
Being stared at for quite a while, "Valentina" suddenly turned anger into coquettishness, lightly laughing, breaking the silence.
"Pfft... haha, oh dear, I’ve been found out!"
"How did you discover it?"
She spread her arms and did a turn, very curiously asking, "I thought... I shouldn’t have any difference from her now."
"Is it perhaps the aura?"
She patted her cheeks, made a silly face, then quickly relaxed, puzzledly furrowing her brows at Herbert.
"But, how did a Prison Warden like you observe so carefully?"
Herbert didn’t respond, inertly asked, "Enough with the nonsense, where’s Valentina?"
Upon hearing this, "Valentina" pouted, "Ah, you’re not answering? Really, turns out you’re just another boring guy."
"Forget it~"
Looking at the unmoved Herbert, she suddenly showed a demonic smile, and lightly chuckled:
"Since... you really want to see her that badly, why not come yourself?"
At the moment "Valentina" smiled, Herbert had already begun to retreat further, attempting to distance himself from her.
But before he flew ten meters away, a dazzling white light enveloped him.
"What?"
Blinded by the light, Herbert’s vision turned white, but when he regained clarity, his eyes widened abruptly.
In front of him were countless reflections.
All of them were him.
In front, behind, left, right, above, below... countless shattered mirrors formed a colossal cage.
"Tsk."
And upon entering this place, without needing that fake Valentina to explain, as a Prison Warden, Herbert already knew where he was.
The Third Commandment Hall, sixth level!
"Mirror Space..."
