The Otherworldly Adventures of a Super Naive Girl

Chapter 272: Something Big is About to Happen

The captain was bold. He planned to secretly get the maid out then sneak her back in after playing with her.

The skilled ones who worked under the captains would be easy to recognize. Using them would be like advertising the person behind it. You needed unfamiliar new faces to make it work.

So Ibak came up with the idea of using two relatively inconspicuous guys to do it. This way even if the plan was discovered, they could just push the blame on the two guys while they, themselves, would be in the clear.

The captain thought it was a good idea, so he agreed and had Ibak get some people for it.

Ibak thought about it and came up with Old A, B, and C. Werent the three of them super forgettable? They were perfect.

They were sons of fishermen on the islands with average looks and strength, so they were never recruited by any of the captains for missions. Instead, they were left to do patrols and other odd jobs. They had so little presence, they were practically invisible.

It wasnt possible for Ibak say his thoughts of course. How could he tell them their job was to be cannon fodder?

Ibak didnt know his cannon fodders werent who he thought they were. Theyd been replaced by Ming Xi and Jier, who of course, werent simple people. They could guess the real motive and plan, but they had to play along and pretend to be appreciative. They didnt dare point out the plans flaw.

Though they tried hard to play simple men, they werent very good. Fortunately, because Ibak didnt know the original men well, he didnt detect anything suspicious.

Here are the keys and here is the map. Ive already drawn a circle around the maids room. You wont go wrong as long as you follow the map. Once you reach it, tell the guards youre there to relieve them.

No one should disturb you once they leave. Use that time to get the maid out of there. Therell be someone outside to bring the maid back to the captain. Once the captain is done, someone else will bring the maid back. You just have to keep an eye on the door. If anyone comes by and ask questions, just say nothings wrong.

Ibak explained what Jier and Ming Xi were expected to do. It sounded simple, but it was actually risky. If someone came by in that time, they would bear the brunt of it and be sacrificed.

Though Jier and Ming Xi were unconcerned, they had to wonder at their luck for picking cannon fodder identities. After taking the keys and map, they proceeded to head in the direction of the marked room. They could explore the other areas in their own time.

The underground space was built like a maze, but fortunately they had the map. Without it, they would have had a hard time finding the room.

They walked through the underground passages, passing one stone room after another, one pirate after another. It wasn't easy finding a deserted area. The moment they did, they ducked inside a stone room willed with junk.

Senior Ming Xi, what should we do? Jier didnt expect things would turn out the way they did; after all, they had disguised themselves as small minions.

It was a secret rescue mission, so the more low-key and inconspicuous they were, the better. And yet they had already met with the captain and Ibak. Even if they were in disguise, it was still bad.

Ming Xi thought about it. We follow the map and find the maid. Then see if we can get any information out of her.

Arent we only here to find Oleen and Yanran?! How would a maid know anything about them? Unless they were locked in the same room? But that wasnt likely.

Who said anything about asking her about those two? I just want to find out what the pirates are up to. The Red Skulls have always been clever enough to pirate within proper boundaries. They rob passing merchant ships and fishing boats, but they know better than to provoke a party they cant afford to offend.

That they would take the initiative to kidnap Princess Hailin is unusual. Remember what those three people in the bushes said? If Im not wrong, the leader of the Red Skulls is going to be a problem.

Jier recalled the conversation between the three guys in the bushes. Clarity flashed in his eyes. Hed been anxious about changing identities so he hadnt thought about it too much. But now he realized something was a foot. There was the contents of the conversation and the unusual kidnapping.

Youre right, but what does it have to do with us? We just need to find those two and leave right? Im not interested in anything else. Jier had no interest in the Red Skulls. What he wanted to do was vent his anger on Yanran and Oleen. Those two assholes made him chase after them so many days. Now he had to pretend to be a pirate a save them. He wouldnt be Jier if he didnt give them a piece of his mind.

Jier thought about how hed teach them a lesson. Should he burn them with fire or make them suffer through some illusion magic? It was such a hard choice.

Im afraid we must take care of this matter. Ive been uncomfortable since we docked. I sense strong demon aura in the base of this island powerfully hidden demon aura.

Demon aura?! Jiers expression changed. He possessed powers beyond the ordinary person because he was an heir to one of the four season seals. His sensitivity to demonic aura was also stronger.

But if the demon energy was well hidden and the demon master was higher level, then he wouldnt be able to sense it. Well that was unless he released the seal of Summer.

But how could he release it here, under such conditions? Wouldnt it be the same as advertising their presence?

Ming Xi was a descendent of the gods so his body was filled with their blood. It wouldnt be an exaggeration to call him the son of heaven. With that blood coursing through his veins, it wasnt surprising he could detect the demon aura.
