A Sweet Girl Won't Be Fooled By The Villainess - [Vol. 4] Chapter 81

[Vol. 4] Chapter 81: What are you looking at?

Suddenly being stared at by an exquisite beauty, an ordinary person would have had their heart pounding wildly long ago. However, for Ifia, she became immediately vigilant.

The appearance of such a beauty in this underground ice cave was quite abnormal no matter how one thought about it!

Moreover, even if the other party was stunning, she couldn’t compare to Amelia in looks. It was probably just a deception to fool others. Hmph, trying to deceive Ifia was impossible!

Because of Amelia’s excessively stunning appearance, Ifia’s discerning eyes had long been fixed on her. How could she be misled by someone of unknown origin? So, when she saw the other person staring at her intently, she immediately felt displeased.

Ifia didn’t let go of the hand she was holding with Amelia, and the sense of security it brought made her fearless. Therefore, she rolled her eyes directly and said, “What are you looking at!”

Fortunately, the other person didn’t retort with a “Looking at you” but instead smiled slightly, appearing very friendly. However, the gaze fixed on Ifia did not waver, still staring straight at her.

There was a strange and eerie sense of terror, making Ifia, who wasn’t particularly brave, unconsciously tighten her grip on Amelia’s hand.

Sensing Ifia’s hesitation, Amelia didn’t mock her but instead provided a shocking revelation, “Ifia, don’t be afraid, this is just an illusion.”

“Illusion?”

Maintaining her habit of asking questions when something seemed amiss, Ifia looked at Amelia with confusion. This illusion was too real! And it can even speak?

“It’s just a little trick of the magical plants. The Misfortune Vines create illusions to confuse humans, leading them into traps, with their flesh becoming nourishment for the magical plants.”

In Ifia’s eyes, it was a beautiful woman. However, in Amelia’s view, it was just a massive plant. At this moment, numerous vines were waving and wriggling in all directions, uncompromising and seemingly with individual thoughts, opening cracks on the vines as they moved. Sharp, ferocious teeth emerged from these openings, continuously biting and making considerable noise.

Simultaneously, numerous vines emitted a steady stream of black mist, gradually filling the entire space. After using illusions to confuse humans, the Misfortune Vines, for added security, would also release a poisonous gas to rapidly seize the life force of humans, causing their consciousness to dissipate, leaving behind their bodies as nourishment.

That’s precisely why it was extremely difficult for humans to obtain the Misfortune Vines. One careless move could cost them their lives. Even strong humans are unable to resist the allure of illusions and the toxic gases. After all, despite their strength, they are still humans without special abilities, making it challenging to withstand.

However, among the unexpected guests today, besides Ifia, the somewhat weak one, there was also Amelia, who was in control. With just a lift of her purple eyes, the black mist was immediately engulfed by magic, preventing it from taking form. To minimize the danger, magic was applied to the vines, preventing the mist from emerging.

The Misfortune Vines seemed to sense the danger, and countless vines began to thrash wildly. Unfortunately, the black magic quickly solidified into ropes, binding the vines together. They were left trapped and unable to move.

Even the openings that had split open were sealed by the black magic, preventing the sharp teeth from being exposed, avoiding frightening Ifia. The power of the Misfortune Vines was continually being drained, causing the once very realistic illusions to flicker for a moment.

Following that, the trapped Misfortune Vines couldn’t sustain the illusion, and the beautiful figure in front suddenly disappeared.

What followed was a rapidly entwining bundle of vines, quickly presenting itself in front of Ifia. She silently watched the bundle of vines in front of her, feeling somewhat speechless.

She thought that magical plants capable of condensing illusions would be incredibly powerful.

The result?

Just this?

This large green bundle didn’t have any intimidation factor at all!

“Amelia, acquiring magical plants doesn’t seem that difficult, huh? Or is it that… this magical stuff is not valuable?” Disappointed, Ifia couldn’t help but inquire.

Amelia, finding it amusing, gently patted Ifia’s head with her other hand and assured her, “Don’t worry, it’s very valuable. Plus, with such a large volume, we can divide and auction off numerous portions.”

This little one was a wealth enthusiast!

However, it’s a good opportunity to secure the source of magical plants for the auction, avoiding Ifia catching on. Even though Ifia, this little scatterbrain, doesn’t pay much attention, sometimes she can suddenly become a bit smart.

In response, Amelia could only look for suitable excuses to satisfy Ifia’s curiosity.

“That’s great!”

Hearing that magical plants are valuable and abundant, Ifia finally felt relieved. They had just set out with Amelia, and they already had a tremendous harvest. How lucky!

After observing the magical plants for a while, Ifia was eager to get a closer look. However, she was afraid that the magical plants might have some unexpected moves. So, she turned her head towards Amelia, and her sparkling black eyes were full of entreaty.

The fuzzy hat accentuated her cute little face, which was fair and radiant, making her big, watery black eyes shine even more. It made people want to gently pinch her soft cheeks.

Unaware of her own cuteness, Ifia quietly approached Amelia and made a request, “Amelia, I want to get closer for a look, is it okay?”

Having spent so much time together, Ifia understood Amelia well. She knew that Amelia couldn’t resist her being cute, a complete surrender to her charms. Therefore, Ifia raised her hand, gently swaying her arm, and leaned against Amelia.

However, if it were the usual scenario where Ifia was like a little bird, now she was dressed too heavily. The slender bird had turned into a chubby one, flapping its wings for a while without flying to the treetop. Ifia was stunned for a moment, then continued stubbornly, trying to snuggle into Amelia’s arms. However, her plump form couldn’t quite fit in, leading to a frustrated glare.

“Of course, you can,” Amelia, suppressing a smile, didn’t reject Ifia’s request. Instead, she proactively walked forward, holding Ifia’s hand and quickly approaching the Misfortune Vines.

With no time to dwell on her initial anger, Ifia, now curious, circled around the Misfortune Vines. This Misfortune Vine only had the ability to create illusions and didn’t appear threatening on its own, quite a useless plant.

Despite the illusions being realistic and beautiful, they couldn’t even compare to half of Amelia’s charm. Ifia couldn’t bring herself to pretend to be lured in!

Tsk, tsk.

Fortunately, even though the magical plant was useless, it could still exert its last bit of energy, allowing them to earn a bounty at the auction.

Hehehe~

Just as Ifia was happily contemplating these thoughts, the massive bundle of vines suddenly shook violently, like a trapped beast desperately trying to break free from the magical restraint.

During this struggle, one vine made a determined effort to break free, and with lightning speed, it lashed out towards Ifia.

The fierce motion was accompanied by a loud whooshing sound, indicating a substantial force behind the swing!
