"What do we do about this mess?"
"Urgent! Waiting online!"
This was the most pressing question Iri wanted to know right now.
They were already on their way back. The two guide Adventurers, after witnessing everything, hadn't said a word to Iri. They merely showed her a respectful attitude.
Crucially, those two demonic lizards were blasted into nothingness, not even a speck of dust remained. According to regulations, they were supposed to bring back some monster tissue to report, but this way, wouldn't it be a wasted effort?
Making such a huge commotion and then not even earning money, wasn't that a massive loss?!
However, Xiumu and Dean saw that Iri seemed a bit unhappy, and Dean, among them, mustered the courage to ask Iri.
"Miss Iri, the mission is complete, so why are you still unhappy?"
"Uh… I think I went a bit too far. Both lizards are gone, so there's nothing to hand over, and I won't get paid. I also can't pay you your promised guide fees," Iri replied dejectedly.
This time, it was truly a huge loss. She also had to come up with a good excuse to deal with Ainz-daddy, as such a big commotion would definitely alarm him.
"Uh… I think, Miss Iri, no one will doubt that you eliminated those two lizards," Xiumu turned his head and looked at the distant mountain with a large hole Iri had made, saying.
…
Indeed! As soon as Iri returned to the Adventurer's Guild, she saw the Guild Master waiting in the hall.
Needless to say! He must have come to confront Iri. Destroying the forest like that and making a hole in the mountain, it seemed she would have to use a Ruling Spell to freeze them and then escape! She really couldn't afford to pay for the damages!
Seeing Iri return, the Guild Master immediately came over and offered to invite Iri upstairs for a detailed discussion. See! See! He must be about to propose compensation terms!
Let's see what conditions he proposes first! Anyway, no money, no life! Nothing!
However, after following the Guild Master upstairs, just as she reached the door of the so-called office, Iri felt that familiar fluctuation.
Not good!
Indeed! When the Guild Master pushed open the office door, she saw Ainz-daddy.
No… it should be Black Warrior Feifei and Nabe sitting inside, along with a few strange uncles she didn't recognize.
Oh no! This fluctuation… and the red cold light emanating from the black helmet, this was Ainz-daddy himself, no doubt about it, not the Crown Prince pretending.
If only she had known, she would have directly used a Ruling Spell and escaped downstairs. Now that Ainz-daddy was here, she couldn't act recklessly!
What to do? What to do?
At this moment, Iri was burning with anxiety, but in this situation, she could only brace herself and go for it.
From the moment Iri stepped into the office, Ainz-daddy's gaze was fixed on her. Calm down, Iri! Think fast, find a solution!
Now, Ainz-daddy was in the identity of Black Warrior Feifei, and Nabe was watching from the side. So! I've got it!
"Big Brother Fei Fei!" Iri quickly rushed towards Ainz-daddy, completely disregarding the surprise of everyone present, and directly pounced into a hug.
"Big Brother Fei Fei, why are you here? Didn't you say you had an urgent commission to handle?" Iri asked with an extremely affectionate smile, continuously tugging at Ainz-daddy's hand, looking exactly like a kitten wanting to act spoiled with Ainz.
"Uh… Do you two know each other?" the Guild Master asked, surprised by this scene.
"Yes! Big Brother Fei Fei is my older brother! What's wrong?" Iri answered first, before Ainz-daddy could speak.
Good! Seize the initiative! Anyway, Xiao Di wasn't here, as long as I drag Ainz-daddy into my pre-planned setting, then it will be easy to talk about!
"Hmm! She is my important younger sister. So, little sister, can you explain why you are here?" Ainz-daddy asked.
Very good! Setting confirmed! Now, in everyone's eyes, I am the younger sister of Black Warrior Feifei, so explaining the big hole in the mountain will be much easier!
It's not strange for the younger sister of the legendary warrior Fei Fei-daren to be powerful, right?
Then came Ainz-daddy's question. It seemed Xiao Di must have told Ainz-daddy about her coming out, otherwise, Ainz-daddy wouldn't have come here personally, so this makes things easier.
"It's because Big Brother Fei Fei only knows about commissions all day and never has time to accompany me. I clearly ran away from home just to be with you, Big Brother, so I thought I'd become an Adventurer to help you with your commissions, then you'd have more time to spend with me," Iri said, feigning a very wronged expression.
"What a clingy little sister!" an uncle nearby chuckled and said.
"I'm sorry, little sister, please forgive me! I will make more time to spend with you," Ainz-daddy replied, while also reaching out and stroking Iri's head.
Good! This way, I can establish the image of Black Hero Fei Fei's selflessness and gentle side in front of others. This is my credit!
"Well, now for the main topic. The purpose of gathering everyone here, I believe everyone should know, was just now…" The Guild Master did not finish his sentence but turned his gaze towards Iri.
Here it comes! Before that! Iri directly jumped onto Ainz-daddy's lap, sitting directly on his legs.
Iri did this on purpose, to deliberately show the Guild Master and the other Adventurers present that her relationship with Fei Fei-daren was very good! Do you dare to offend Fei Fei-daren, the strongest warrior in E-Rantel now?
"Just now… that matter was done by Iri, right?" Ainz-daddy took over the Guild Master's words first, looking down at Iri sitting on his lap and asking.
Ainz himself was also very surprised by this matter. When he received the report, Ainz personally came out to see it. The traces in the forest, and the large hole in the mountain, among the more than three hundred types of magic Ainz knew, there was no magic that could cause such an effect.
At first, Ainz thought it was done by some strong individual, but when he used the Qianli Mirror to investigate, he saw a gloomy Iri and two Adventurers of unknown identity nearby. Ainz immediately knew that this must be Iri's work.
But why would Iri do this? And by what means did she manage to do this? Ainz had no idea.
"Yes, it was me. I played a little too much. Originally, I just wanted to eliminate those two lizards, but I didn't expect to mess it up," Iri lowered her head, seemingly a bit unhappy.
"Messed it up?" Ainz's heart skipped a beat at this. In Ainz's understanding, Iri seemed to have no other offensive magic besides Skyfall.
Making a hole in the mountain was clearly not caused by Skyfall, and Iri here said she messed it up. Did she awaken some new move? Skyfall was something she had comprehended on her own back then.
"Yes, I messed it up. The power adjustment of my original magic wasn't done well, so I made a hole in the mountain. I apologize for causing you trouble," Iri said, feigning a very guilty expression, and apologized to the Guild Master.
Hmph hmph! Such a cute little sister is apologizing to you so guiltily! And she's the sister of a famous person, a connected person! So, do you still dare to ask for compensation?! Iri thought.
However, Iri was overthinking it. Guild Master Einzack had never thought about compensation issues. It was just making a hole in a mountain that didn't matter much, just destroying half the forest, no problem! As long as Iri could stay in the Adventurer's Guild of E-Rantel, it would be the greatest benefit for Guild Master Einzack.
"Is that so!" At this moment, Ainz was ecstatic when he heard Iri talk about original magic.
If it weren't for disguising as Fei Fei in front of so many people, Ainz might have already embraced Iri and directly opened a teleportation gate to go home to ask Iri in detail about her original magic. However… this was also Ainz overthinking, Iri knew no original magic!
