Chapter 80. Cornelia's Favorite Sitcom

“Let's go investigate the second floor next.”

I said to the crowd.

Right now, they were at the end of the first-floor corridor.

The keys to rooms 103 to 105 were nowhere to be found.

This was not a good place to start a fight with the werewolf.

Luring the enemy to the second floor before starting the fight was undoubtedly the safest choice.

On the second floor, they had a natural geographical advantage.

They could advance to attack and retreat to defend.

Even if something unexpected happened, I and Cornelia could retreat into our bedrooms.

Their Plan A was that after reaching the second floor, Cornelia would get a little closer to the other four.

Once I summoned the 【Ruined Poet】 out of the four girls' sight, Cornelia would see whose expression changed the most and go straight up to give her a hammer blow.

This would greatly test Cornelia's reaction speed.

Cornelia needed to give the enemy a soul-piercing blow of pain before the werewolf's true form could react.

Otherwise, once the werewolf's true form activated 【Berserk】, things would become more troublesome for me and Cornelia.

However, even if they couldn't win then, they could still hide in the second-floor rooms, so there was no danger.

Once the ten-minute duration was over, it would be their turn to torture the werewolf one-sidedly again.

I turned around, preparing to walk towards the stairs to the second floor.

From just now, Cornelia had naturally shortened the distance between herself and the other four according to the plan.

At the same time, she unconsciously maintained a certain distance from me.

However, just at this moment.

A holy light barrier separated me and Cornelia.

I turned my head sharply. Before I could even try to break this holy light barrier, he saw that the assassin sister among the twins had already appeared beside Cornelia like a ghost.

She grabbed Cornelia from behind, then grabbed Cornelia's wrist and pulled her back to her sister's side.

Then the assassin sister held a dagger against Cornelia's neck.

Her expression became somewhat ferocious as she gritted her teeth and stared at me warily, afraid that I would make a move.

She knew that I was an extremely dangerous person.

After all, she had been made miserable by me yesterday!

That damn poison was still torturing her even now.

She didn't know how this bastard had concocted it; even purification magic couldn't get rid of it.

If it weren't for her sister being able to continuously provide her with healing and pain relief, she might have really not been able to make it through last night.

This morning, in order to keep her expression normal, she had almost gritted her teeth to pieces.

“I know you're strong, but if you make a reckless move, I'll kill this weak Miss Detective.”

The assassin sister stared at me fixedly and shouted.

“...”

Even though my expression remained calm at this moment, my brows were already tightly furrowed.

This performance made the assassin sister very satisfied.

It seemed that her risky move was the right one.

If she didn't seize this rare opportunity to hold Cornelia hostage now, and her identity was exposed when they reached the second floor, she would have no chance of a comeback.

“Hands up and back away, keep your distance from us.”

The assassin sister shouted viciously.

I didn't say anything, just nodded and began to step back as the assassin sister demanded.

Seeing how obedient I was, the assassin sister's anxious heart finally settled down a bit.

It seemed her bet was right; he cared immensely about Miss Detective's life.

Just like that, until I was thirty meters away from them, a winner's smile finally appeared on the assassin sister's face.

She admired my expression with great satisfaction.

“I've put up with you for a long time. What's with that constant smiling and pretending? Aren't you panicking now? Where's the composure from last night?”

The assassin sister sneered.

I just bit my lip tightly.

His eyes couldn't hide his regret and panic, and his clenched fists trembled slightly, as if he had encountered an irresistible crisis.

Lilith and her guard's expressions became very grave, but they didn't dare to act rashly.

They already understood the current terrible situation.

The twin sisters were the Rebellious Challengers. They found an opportunity to hold Miss Detective hostage to threaten me, the strongest fighter present.

And from their conversation, it was not difficult to find out that it was indeed I who had made the werewolf so miserable last night.

His combat power was truly terrifying.

But now, no matter how strong he was, his weakness was too obvious.

As long as they controlled Miss Detective, it was equivalent to controlling him!

“As long as you don't harm my young lady, you can even have my life!”

I shouted.

From his slightly trembling voice, one could tell that he was really panicking.

But I was already laughing in his heart.

Idiot assassin.

The enemy had helped them choose Plan B.

Without the enemy's cooperation, this plan really couldn't have gone so smoothly.

Being held hostage, how could Cornelia not react?

Being approached, wouldn't she be happy?

This was exactly the opportunity they were waiting for, for the werewolf to jump out on its own!

Cornelia, who was being held hostage, was watching my performance with great interest.

She felt happier and happier.

If her current identity wasn't a hostage, she would have wanted to take out some snacks to eat.

Watching my performance was always a great pleasure for her.

“Which one of you is the witch? Come out now!”

The assassin sister shouted towards Lilith and Lilith's guard.

Lilith and her guard looked at each other, their faces full of confusion, not understanding what the assassin sister meant.

Isn't the witch the older twin sister?

Could it be that the assassin sister was the werewolf, but the healer sister was not the witch?

“So you're not the witch either? Then it seems the witch is that tenth guy who never showed up.”

The assassin sister frowned and quickly came to this conclusion.

“We have the advantage now! If you don't come out, we'll lose!”

The assassin sister roared at the air, a little angry.

She needed to control the hostage now to keep the strongest, me, from acting rashly.

As long as she had one more helper, she was confident she could take down all her opponents.

However, there was no response for a long time.

This made her anxious.

The damn witch had been missing since the beginning of the Shadow World!

Originally, she should have become the werewolf, and her older sister the witch.

But it was as if the witch's identity had been stolen!

Just as the assassin sister's expression was tense, and her attention was focused on me and Lilith's group.

“Thump!”

A huge force came from nowhere, accompanied by the sound of a jawbone shattering, causing the assassin sister to instantly lose consciousness.

Under everyone's shocked gazes.

Cornelia landed a rising dragon fist firmly on the assassin sister's chin, sending her flying backwards.

...

“Those two idiot sisters, they could have tied up anyone but Cornelia. They probably didn't even understand who the real hostage was until just now.”

The students in the Broadcast Hall all shook their heads and sighed.

In their eyes, the twin sisters were already very pitiful when they made their move.

They were once again played by me and Cornelia.

Even if they were vicious villains skilled in disguise, in front of the Beautiful Mind Squad, they seemed as pure as little white rabbits.
