A Sweet Girl Won't Be Fooled By The Villainess - [Vol. 4] Chapter 80

[Vol. 4] Chapter 80: Small Fry

Just judging by their appearance, the silver small fish were extremely ugly.

Their eyes bulged, scales had thorns, and there were dozens of eyes on their bodies, constantly rotating.

Ifia took just one glance, quickly averted her gaze, and instead looked at Amelia with a bit of eye-rubbing.

Why did something that belonged only in horror movies appear in an underground ice cave?

Moreover, it wasn’t just one.

It was groups of them.

At this moment, hovering in midair, shaking their heads and tails, countless malicious stares made one’s skin crawl, almost frightening to death.

“Don’t be scared.”

Perhaps Ifia’s fearful expression was too evident, prompting Amelia to directly reach out, grabbing Ifia and simultaneously pressing her small head into her embrace.

In an instant, Ifia only saw Amelia’s clothes and smelled a pleasant fragrance. One had to admit, Amelia’s protection was truly reassuring. At least, at this moment, Ifia wasn’t scared anymore. Instead, she felt comforted.

Just a bunch of small fry.

Her Amelia was very powerful!

In fact, as Ifia thought, Amelia raised her head and looked forward. In an instant, the black magic transformed into a pervasive black mist, enveloping the surroundings.

Those small silver fish that were intended to attack were quickly swallowed up by the black mist before they made any move. Not a single scale remained, only the wailing sounds of their miserable cries echoed, resembling human pleas for help.

Unfortunately, apart from Ifia, who quickly covered her ears, there were no other humans here. Deception wouldn’t work.

Only Amelia gazed coldly at these small fry. Her silver hair swayed in the wind, and her purple eyes emitted a fierce gleam.

She had no good expression for these things that frightened her Ifia, she wished they would disappear immediately.

Once the silver small fish completely vanished, Amelia released Ifia. Sensing Amelia’s release, Ifia didn’t immediately look around but quickly raised her head to Amelia, her black eyes filled with disdain for the small fry.

“Amelia, are those fish still around?”

Upon hearing the question, Amelia shook her head and fabricated a casual lie, “After killing some, I scared the rest away.”

Leaving aside the fact that the silver small fish came in force, there would still be bodies dropping if they were really killed. However, the ground was now spotless, with nothing in sight.

Therefore, this explanation was very easily debunked and hardly believable to anyone.

“I knew Amelia, you’re the most formidable!”

However, Ifia clearly didn’t engage her brain too much, only extracting the information she wanted from Amelia’s reply and paying no attention to the rest. All she knew was that the ugly fish had disappeared.

Phew~

Although these bizarre fish looked challenging, Ifia was scared mainly because they were incredibly eerie.

Moreover, Amelia had no qualms about dealing with even dark elves, so handling these small fry was a piece of cake. Ifia had long known about Amelia’s unscientific powers, so she didn’t find it odd that Amelia scared off these strange fish.

Once she felt at ease, she began to survey her surroundings. Looking down from above, she had only seen a rough estimate and hadn’t examined it too closely.

Now that they had successfully arrived in the underground ice cave, she saw that there wasn’t just one entrance, but many. The various-sized black openings resembled a beehive, and it was entirely unclear where they led.

A gust of wind came from an unknown direction, making Ifia, bundled up like a polar bear, feel a chill creeping through her bones. As she looked at these openings, Ifia felt that it was a challenge for someone with decision-making difficulties.

With so many openings, which one to choose???

While Ifia struggled to decide which entrance to take in the surrounding ice cave, Amelia sighed at how easily Ifia, the little silly goose, believed her.

She didn’t doubt her words in the least, she was truly being led astray.

Fortunately, as long as Ifia stayed by her side, there was no need to worry about anything else. Despite being a bit silly, she was very cute.

Thinking about this, Amelia couldn’t help but raise her hand and gently pat Ifia’s fluffy hat.

Without waiting for Ifia to decide which entrance to choose, she directly held Ifia’s hand and casually picked one to enter.

None of these ice cave entrances led to a smooth path, so choosing one over another was just a waste of effort. Therefore, she decided to forcefully break through the ice cave passage, solving all the problems at once. Plus, they could choose the nearest route.

If it weren’t for the need to conceal her demonic identity in front of Ifia, she would have quickly found the Misfortune Vine, and the progress wouldn’t be as slow as it was now.

However, even though the entrance to the underground ice cave looked eerie and frightening, once they walked inside, the surrounding ice layers, serving as the passage walls, emitted a faint blue light, making the ice layers appear remarkably transparent. It was very beautiful.

However, just as the idea was forming in Ifia’s mind, the following sights and sounds immediately dispelled it. After they walked a certain distance, the beautiful ice layers revealed their cruelty.

Various animals were trapped in the ice layers, sea, land, and air creatures alike. Each one, frozen within the ice, maintained the posture of its final moments, anxiously trying to escape.

Unfortunately, none of them managed to break free and remained frozen in the ice. As they silently observed, the trapped animals underwent a transformation. Initially normal animals gradually turned into strange and unidentifiable creatures.

While Ifia watched, her small hand secretly tightened its grip on Amelia’s hand. Even though they were wearing warm gloves, preventing them from feeling the temperature, being held gave a sense of reassurance.

Although aware that magical plants were not ordinary entities, the search process didn’t need to be so horrifying.

Now that she has witnessed all this, Ifia has completely lost any expectations for that Misfortune Vine and just wants to get away.

Ahhh, it’s so terrifying, she’s having second thoughts.

However, being the queen of stubbornness, Ifia naturally won’t express it directly. So, she continues to follow Amelia, looking straight ahead with a serious expression, as if completely focused.

However, Amelia has long understood Ifia’s personality. Finding the stubborn little cat both helpless and amusing, she ultimately indulges her.

Amelia uses magic to quickly clear the closest route to the Misfortune Vine’s location, bypassing many troubles and directly entering the final level of this game.

Proceeding with an unaware Ifia, they avoid many obstacles until they finally reach the vicinity of the Misfortune Vine. The ice layers have been replaced by black stone walls that emit a faint red glow, illuminating the surroundings. At the same time, white mist hovers around, tinged with the red light.

“Welcome, lovely guests.”

In the dim light, a beautiful woman is seated ahead, appearing faintly in the mist.

Her long ice-blue hair cascades behind her, dressed in a dark blue robe that exposes her beautiful shoulders.

She smiles gently at the sudden intrusion of the two unexpected guests.

Especially, her gaze lingered on Ifia. The remaining holy power on Ifia made her stick out her tongue and lick the corner of her lips.
