Mystic Overlord: Reading Gives Strength-Chapter 1306 - 1300: Temporary Stay

As a great demon, a legion-level great demon!

Lama's heart is bearing immense pain at this moment. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

Perhaps to retaliate for being bullied by Catherine in the office earlier, when Lama didn't fight back or speak up to help, legislator Darman ultimately decided to leave the task of entertaining Ronald and Catherine entirely to him.

To be honest...

This is a highly stressful job.

After all, not only was Lama harshly disciplined by Catherine, but thinking back half a year ago, he also served as the summoned creature enforcer for the "Nine Commandments" secret meeting, having had more than one confrontation and direct conflict with Ronald.

He even transformed into a crow to mock and tease Ronald when the latter was still weak.

Looking at the situation now—

He has to entertain two guests whose abilities are completely above his own, and whose 'relationship' is not very friendly.

Lama only feels his demon blood pressure starting to rise.

However, despite this, the great demon still faithfully fulfilled his duty as a summoned creature.

Hence, considering Ronald and Catherine's abilities.

He led the two to the highest level travel agency in Hamono City—within this forest, the travel agency undertook the roles of travel guide and hotel service, without a traditional inn.

The destination was quickly reached.

The travel agency Lama selected was established beside a cliff.

Green foliage surrounded the path leading to it, the lodging behind nestled among lush trees and vibrant flowers, especially with the few rooms with the best views, where passing through artfully beautiful balconies, one could see the adjacent babbling stream from the arched windows.

A clear stream flowed past just at the close-up view.

Listening to the faint sound of the water and the forest, it seemed to weave into a quiet and pleasant melody.

Not to mention staying over, just spending a moment here.

One's mood would inadvertently improve!

Even from a very picky point of view, this is definitely an impeccable dwelling!

"Demon, the place you picked for us is quite nice."

Catherine was quite pleased with the travel agency appearing before her and was not stingy with praise for Lama:

"As a reward, you may ask me for a small favor."

With this said, Catherine gave Lama a smile, finally reminding:

"I rarely give rewards to others; this is quite a rare opportunity."

"..."

Lama would not dare respond to this individual!

Just like his summoner legislator Darman, Lama merely gave Catherine a forced grin, quickly leading the way, running swiftly towards the travel agency.

"Tsk—"

Catherine shook her head, saying no more.

...

Lama held a public position in the city of Hamono, and the travel agency people happened to recognize this great demon.

So everything went smoothly.

Ronald and Catherine got a very well-situated room without having to bear any expenses.

Led by the staff, the three entered the room.

The great demon Lama immediately dismissed the hotel staff and undertook the task of introducing the room himself:

"This room is quite highly positioned within the travel agency, allowing for beautiful views of Hamono City and various places in the forest. And because the hotel itself is built on the mountain, even though the terrain is high, you can easily go down from the windowsill here."

"Do you find this place... satisfactory?"

Catherine immediately teased the great demon:

"The way you introduce this place sounds like we might flee at any time—what do you mean by jumping down from the window here?"

Lama still did not dare say much, merely accompanying a smile awkwardly.

This introduction was not because he looked down on Ronald and Catherine's abilities, but rather a global traveling caster, in choosing a dwelling, would consider convenience of movement apart from comfort.

Such an introduction was merely out of habitual behavior.

"..."

"Alright, Catherine, don't tease him."

At this time, Ronald spoke to rescue the great demon from the awkward situation.

Lama felt somewhat grateful, immediately preparing to bid farewell to the two.

However, Ronald, who had just rescued him, pointed to the chair in the room:

"Come, sit here."

"I have many things I want to understand; we have plenty of time today, let's sit down and talk slowly."

"..."

The expression of the great demon immediately collapsed.

He originally thought he could be saved.

Turns out one left, and another was waiting for him here!

Lama felt rather wretched but bearing the summoner's command, and indeed no match for the two before him.

Under dual pressure.

The great demon could only obediently follow Ronald's instructions and sit on the chair in the room.

"If you have any questions, I will answer truthfully."

Seeing Lama so cooperative, Ronald went straight to the point:

"Earlier when I asked you, didn't you say you were summoned by the 'Nine Commandments' after escaping from 'Springs'? Tell me in detail about what you saw and heard during that last summoning to the 'Nine Commandments'."

Hearing this question, Lama sighed in relief.

As long as Ronald wasn't seeking trouble from him, can't a demon like him betray a former summoner?

Lama decisively began recounting his last summoning experience by the "Nine Commandments" to Ronald and Catherine.

"In the distant southern continent, the 'Nine Commandments' badge deciphered many original scriptures through the Book of Interpretation and built a city into an urban fortress controlled by them."

"Among them, there were numerous spellcasting elites, including top-tier power wielders of original scriptures."

After this description, Ronald picked up details from Lama's words to further inquire:

"Explain that so-called Book of Interpretation in depth."

Though he had heard this name before, in Ronald's records, there was the thought that the Book of Interpretation was a scam.

——Judging from the total defeat of the first expeditionary force.

——It's possibly a trap to lure others to the southern continent.

But hearing Lama's description now, the existence of the Book of Interpretation must be affirmed.

On the other side, hearing Ronald's question, Lama naturally replied:

"That is a book capable of deciphering other original texts, even my first master quickly mastered the Salamanca school's original text with the help of the Book of Interpretation. As the great demon summoned by it, I fortunately heard a few bytes of it..."

Saying this, Lama began imitating human tones.

His voice sounded somewhat strange but barely maintained the necessary shape.

Just hearing the beginning, Ronald's expression became subtle.

Being a natural speaker of this language, he instantly understood what Lama was saying.
