Chapter 56 - A Yandere Wife Prefers To Ask Her Husband Instead To Find Out Information By Herself.
It was a dark cavern.
The sounds of steps, weapons, and screams blended into an inexplicable voice that continuously swept through the place shrouded in darkness. The lit-up torches were the only source of light in the grasp of the adventurers fighting for money. Their current targets were the purple goblins, already known race to the husband and yandere wife.
The purple goblins were smarter than before.
Was it because the world pillar changed? Or there was some third party helping them? The purple goblins were one of the rulers on the third floor and the aforementioned questions were just small parts of their success. The real reason was the big fish in the small pond - Anoke!
The grotesque creature that had taught Kyoya a little of knife fighting!
He became the free man, then the leader of the tribe. At first, Anoke was satisfied with his small force, but his fame and powers couldn't stay still. As the news spread widely through the purple goblin tribes, many of them challenged Anoke to snatch his prestige.
In such a world, the prestige and status are way more than one might think. With such status, the goblin leaders could unite more forces and build up the castle on their lands. The more forces, the more tributes and more meals for them! But what the goblin leaders aimed to achieve hadn't happened at all, and instead, Anoke inadvertently became the leader of the whole race.
His strong resilience was the key!
In other words, the hp stat was so high he was unbeaten!
"Geh! The weaklings finally found some usage, geh!"
Anoke's strength also lies in his belief. He knows more about the god than every other goblin, so as time passed, Anoke successfully claimed a lot of believer energy by sacrificing flesh for his merciful god. The grotesque goblin was now, ready to become the significant figure on the third floor!
No need to aim higher.
There are way stronger monsters in this world, for example, yandere wife.
Just by thinking about the only yandere Anoke had seen in his life, the small body of his trembled and eyes nearly lost its prestige glint. But for more than two hundred years, the yandere wife and her weirdo husbando had never appeared!
"Geh! Kill them!"
The fame of Anoke also reached other races on the third floor. The third floor is not that important, but if such race claims the 'guardian' title, then this is going to be the disaster for the female adventures going up from the first floor.
The balanced ratio might be destroyed!
So there were a lot of humans and beastly races teaming up to fight the goblins. One might think that this is fascinating teamwork of various races trying to save their females, but the truth is far different.
What fuels them is the desire to grab the cash and grow up in strength. In such a big battle, it is pretty easy to steal the prey of others, but it is also easier to push one's limits with the priest keeping an eye all over the battlefield.
So what has united the races is 'mission'.
By issuing the mission in one of the nine kingdoms, the races from the third floor managed to invite adventurers from higher floors.
"Husband, what are those nine ascended kingdoms?"
Why would someone mention nine kingdoms in the middle of the battlefield? Why would someone speak so cutely and affectionately in the middle of the battlefield? No, how can you not know the nine kingdoms? But most importantly, how could Anoke hear the deadliest voice in his life yet again?
His eyes dilated when he spotted Xaya and Kyoya at the far end near the priests.
She was speaking to her husband yet his instincts screamed and focused so much that he could hear her as if trying to read her plans so that he can escape. The powerful leader of the grotesque race's attitude took a huge turn just from hearing such a lovely voice!
'I-impossible!'
"Haa… Why won't you just read the book from your mom?"
"Husband~~"
"Tsk! Look, this is all the new system. I will explain it to you later, but you need to know two things. The chaos has been subdued and no one is immortal except the guardian and his family on each floor."
"Hmm, ~~"
Xaya hummed, hugged tighter, then forgot about the new system as it didn't seem that interesting at all. But it was indeed interesting, and Kyoya just had no time to explain the things as one side of the battlefield suddenly got an advantage.
It was the combination of forces with the invited adventurers from higher floors.
Though the source of light disappeared, the weakest adventurers had normal torches that could be lit up nonstop. The main source is known to be 'A Glowy Light Stone'. These stones were distributed throughout the cavern so that archers could be useful while priests could keep an eye on everyone including the front.
But goblins flawlessly destroyed those!
"Husband, husband. What about the missions? It should be interesting!"
"It is similar to our mission, but the adventurers and residents of the floors can issue missions based on their belief. They use their belief to create those missions in the adventurers guild in the nine kingdoms… Just by taking the mission, the higher floor adventurers gain the pass to lower floors."
"Oh! I like it!"
"Me too."
But the adventurers are way too exiguous when it comes to these missions. So what if their enemies are from the lower floor? They still can lose their equipment, or at least get their stuff mutilated. Then, the unexpected also can happen and their life might suddenly turn into a life-threatening situation!
Just like the battle right now.
The leader Anoke was so frozen he couldn't order his subordinates!
"Their mission should be only to help. I don't think the residents of the third floor can have so much belief to announce the mission to get rid of Anoke."
"Husband, husband! Can they gather their belief in one person, so that he can issue the high rewarding mission?"
"I think they can… But the early floors are weak in belief… Look at the adventurers."
It was dark, but Kyoya could see way more than the archers around him including the priests… And his wife, who had her strength sealed, could only squint her eyes, then frown as it was also hard for her to peek at others! She tugged her husband's clothes, seeking more entertainment on their 'new adventure'.
"The adventurers have been requested to help, so they have a specified amount of goblins to kill. Once they fulfill their mission, they are either leaving or falling to steal the stuff from the dead adventures… or maybe even betray? My eyesight is still limited in the dark, I can't tell much!"
"Mmm! But I like it!"
Of course, Xaya would like it. She might not be able to look at the ongoing battles, deaths, and betrayals, but her eyes can see the souls appearing around the dead bodies. How they died? It's meaningless if even her husband can't tell! They died, so it is time to gather the souls!
The husband can gather the souls to send them straight to the death castle.
He was looking forward to that! His stats should rise, and maybe even EXP would be given soon! As for Xaya, she was also looking toward the stats bonus, but also to gather the soul essence. The soul essence is gathered when Xaya sends the soul to the death castle.
So both of them have to just do their work.
"We are going to split evenly."
"Husband, we should do it differently!"
"Elaborate."
"Since I will be the one to move tonight, I should get 70%!"
"…"
*Nod*
The husband nodded and it was time to begin the daily work of the death god's disciples!
