Chapter 410: Despite the Tension in the Holy City

"Starlight Apparel? Hmm... I feel like I've seen this girl before. What a beautiful and eye-catching dress. Is she a model? Woah, doesn't this model is very much like Ais? Or maybe, it's indeed Ais, hum-mm?" Sylvia stroked her chin and nodded at her own a.s.sumption.

She folded her arms, then looked left and right. It was quiet enough to be called a street in a capital city. Thus, she decided to immediately leave to find a decent inn.

One obvious thing, she felt excited because she at least knew that someone similar to Ais, or indeed Ais herself, was somewhere in this city. When morning came, she had the intention to look for Ais.

'Uh, over there is the Holy Church. I need to get away from that sacred place.' Sylvia took another path when she saw a majestic golden-white church in the distance. She also tried her best to avoid the encounter with the patrolling guards.

'Inn, inn~ Hum, hum, where is that? Ah, that's it. Wow, I have a lot of options here.' Sylvia rushed to the first hotel she found. However, there turned out to have several different buildings with different signboards as well.

Although a bit confused, it was only temporary. Sylvia already knew that the best hotel was the one that had the most stars over the others.

For that reason, Sylvia headed for the five-star hotel without a second thought. 'Onyx Luxury Hotel, hmm?'

Right after Sylvia entered the hotel entrance, she could see several staff and guards there. Very different from the streets that were relatively quiet earlier.

"Welcome to Onyx Luxury. Oh my..." One of the staff greeted the night guest, but she immediately covered her mouth when she saw the guest's red eyes.

Sylvia was a little confused by the exaggerated response. She had never seen anything like this in the past four days other than the odd stare.

She checked something on her face, but her sungla.s.ses wasn't there. She had forgotten that, even though she had reminded herself to wear sungla.s.ses.

"Eh-ah, please don't get me wrong. My eyes are red, but that doesn't mean I have cursed eyes!" Sylvia immediately defended herself, then put on her sungla.s.ses. "It's better now."

After that, Sylvia went to the reception desk. She treated the stares and murmurs from the staff like nothing to her. "Ahem, I want a room for me for three days."

"Err... Please forgive me for asking this, but are you really not a devil, miss?" The receptionist lady ventured to ask.

"Of course, I'm an adventurer. If you want certainty, here's my adventure card. I came late at night because I got lost before coming to this city." Sylvia showed her adventurer card to the receptionist.

"Ah, all right, please forgive my rudeness. A single room, correct? Allow me to check the vacant rooms." The receptionist lady breathed a sigh of relief. Although a little doubtful, at least, the adventurer's card was valid.

After checking the list several times, the receptionist lady looked at the guest with an apologetic look. "I'm sorry, miss. All the guest rooms are full."

"I didn't come here to pick a regular room. I have a lot of money, give me the best room." Sylvia took out a coin pouch and opened it slightly for the receptionist to see.

The bluish gleam of the hundreds of platinum coins dazzled the reception lady's eyes.

"Gulp... T-Then, please wait a moment." The receptionist lady stuttered a little in reply. She took a particular board and a pen to report something to her boss. She required permission from superiors before she offered any VVIP room to the guests.

"Ah, I have submitted your request and it has been confirmed by the superior, miss. We have two vacant VVIP rooms and can be used for three days by you." The receptionist lady reported with some relief.

"Hmph, then, I'll take one of that room for three days. Cost doesn't matter since I'm rich and important." Sylvia snorted softly. Sometimes, money could solve almost all kinds of problems.

And luckily, no one made a fuss about her bright red eyes anymore. In her mind, she started looking for a way to change her iris color without using magic.

"However, miss, the room price is a bit more expensive than the normal price on the usual days. Are you okay with that, miss?" The receptionist lady reminded with a bit of pressure to herself.

"It doesn't matter. Is one hundred platinum coins enough? Here it is, I paid for everything in full upfront." Sylvia handed over a hundred coins from her money pouch as if it wasn't much.

"That's much more than enough, miss. Are there any other services you'd like to order?" The receptionist lady felt a bit awkward because she only conveyed the courtesy to notify.

"No, for the time being... Mm, that's all for now." Sylvia thought for a moment and decided.

"All right, this is your room access card, miss. The total cost is three platinum coins. The price is inclusive, with few incidentals depending on additional service requests. Your room is on the third floor." The receptionist lady put a white card on the table, then took three platinum coins from the guest's pile of coins.

After that, she gave a hand signal to one of the nearby staff. "Shan, please escort our honored guest to VVIP room 8."

"Mm, allow me to escort you to your room, miss." A woman in a brightly patterned uniform came over and greeted.

"Then, lead the way." Sylvia put all her coins back into her s.p.a.ce Bag and took her room access card.

As Sylvia left the lobby, the receptionist lady breathed a sigh of relief. She was getting invisible pressure just from dealing with a guest just now. "Sigh, everyone who pays is an honorable guest who deserves to be served. I felt a little sorry for the young miss just now."

"Why is that? I just wanted to complain that we're still working at nights like this even though the city has imposed a no-activity curfew due to last week's events." One of the guards complained and glanced at the lonely entrance.

"Say that again or I'll report you to the superiors." The receptionist lady narrowed her eyes with a small smile.

"Chill out, yo. But, I also have the same thoughts as you. The young miss just now must have gotten into a lot of trouble just because she has bright red eyes, cursed eyes. I wonder which rich aristocratic family she comes from." The other guards reconciled the atmosphere with a relaxed tone.

"Who knows, but I need to report that to the superiors as well. O the G.o.ddess of Blessings, I hope to become a rich and important woman like the young miss just now. I also want to spend hundreds of platinum coins at will without any worries." The receptionist lady sat down and wrote a report on a particular board.

"Keep dreaming, haha." One of the staff laughed at that.

A bit far from the Onyx Luxury Hotel, a holy knight with gallant golden armor had just arrived at a small, rather dark alley. He knelt down to examine the cold street with his hand.

"The smell of a devil. How could a devil get into this holy city? It doesn't make sense, did that little devil sneak in while the city's security system was going through a brief transition just now? But it was only five minutes..."

"Has internal information been leaked? Is there a traitor among us? This is suspicious and needs further investigation. The devil's tracks are gone here."

The holy knight put his hand on his chin while thinking and considering many things in mind.

Then, he turned to his left to see a beautiful girl with black hair and purplish-blue eyes on a clothing store billboard. "Starlight Apparel and the G.o.ddess of Light's disciple as their model. Hmph, this is funny but interesting."

At that moment, he felt that there was an incoming message transmission. He took out a golden white paper from his hidden pocket and read the contents inside.

That holy knight frowned, but he grinned widely. "Another devil? Hehe, this holy city must be rid of a filthy, sinful creature like you. What number is this target, hmm? Eighth? Stupid, they tried to infiltrate last week's event only to be slaughtered by the holy knight order."

"O, the G.o.ddess of Blessings, grant us with your blessings." After saying that, he emitted his purple aura and rushed toward the siege location at full speed.

The actual incident behind the implementation of the secret emergency curfew was the discovery of several devils who had infiltrated the city in disguise. It was also to avoid public panic. Residents were asked to stay indoors during curfew.

The elites of the holy knights and imperial knights were deployed to clear the devils from the holy city. There was no mercy for devils other than liberation by annihilation.

Unfortunately, the intruder devils hid and disguised themselves well. It was pretty hard for hunters to find them.

Despite the tension between humans and devils out there, a Devil Princess casually walked into her cozy and warm VVIP room. She was utterly oblivious to anything but simple and exciting things.

"Sya-lalala~ I forgot to eat dinner and haven't showered either. I need self-care to heal my pitiful self. Take a bath, fwium, smell good, then have dinner with the snacks I bought in the previous town~" Sylvia hummed as she stripped her body clean from any cloth. She threw her dress and lingerie onto the sofa, then wrapped herself in a large towel.
