Chapter 119
In South Korea, where Lucy and the rest were teleported to, there was only one dungeon and it’s located in its capital Séoul . Actually, almost every dungeon that spawned was precisely in the capital of a certain city except very few peculiar and mysterious dungeons that either cannot be entered or have insanely strong creatures that no one could beat .
It was not just the special people with new abilities that went to the dungeon . Several governments didn’t just stay still and decided to send soldiers with guns and bombs to dive deeper into the dungeon but none of them succeeded .
Guns were effective, so bombed, in fact, against the weak monsters such as slimes or goblins, an accurate gunshot in the skull would kill them but that was only for weak monsters .
Hobgoblin was completely unaffected by bullets and only special thick and fast bullets from a huge machine gun or destructive C4 but these are not endless and each group of soldiers can only carry a certain amount of them .
What’s more is that each floor of the dungeons have a boss of some kind and these bosses cannot be killed by bombs or whatnot, only people with special abilities can manage them as they have superhuman strength .
Such a famous people like the flame emperor or the indestructible had their fame rise in the past months and each time they went to the dungeon, they would come back with new items or miraculous objects .
. .
It’s been a week since Lucy and co appeared in South Korea and after passing a week in the deep forest with no news and only resting, it was finally time to move . Delia recuperated a bit and was able to move freely but her she didn’t fully recover . Arthur didn’t show up and they only thing they would do is explore the forest or just sit at the small earth house all day .
Lucy decided to go the city and check things as they can’t just stay there forever, what if Arthur comes back after a month or even a year? She decided that she must prepare things for him, prepare them thoroughly so when he comes, he doesn’t need to bother with small things .
One thing was for sure, she must search for Claudia, his ex-wife, she remembered her face and looking for her won’t be too hard as Earth is just too small . She can’t search the whole Earth but Delia can and the Goddess would obey her orders so when Delia was able to move and use Nether Energy, Lucy told her to search for Claudia .
Obviously, Delia didn’t know who Claudia is or her appearance and no matter how strong she is, she can’t find someone she doesn’t know . Lucy thought things through and gave Delia a special talisman .
It was practically useless in battles but it a small part of one’s memories can be imprinted in it and the next person who injects any kind of Energy in it, they will automatically see that memory .
The bad thing is that you can only imprint a memory of no longer than 5 seconds but even a second was enough for Lucy . After imprinting Claudia’s appearance, she passed the talisman to Delia who injected Mana in it and saw the memory .
“So it’s her that I need to find? Just who is she for you to use such desperate means to find her?”
Lucy coldly looked at her and retorted
“Just find her and stop asking questions . ”
“Hai Hai! I’m not even treated like a Goddess anymore, it’s truly not fair . ”
Despite complaining like that, Delia spread her sense all over the planet, not missing a single inch and in less than a minute, she found the target .
“I found three people with that appearance with one who has 95% resemblance to the memory, she’s also the closest to us, exactly 7400 kilometers from here . ”
“Then take me to where she is and cover our presence completely . ”
Delia didn’t like the fact that Lucy didn’t even say ’Please’ and straight out ordered her but she didn’t dare refuse . She didn’t fully recover and she heard from Miya the other day that Lucy was able to fight against Lissandra, who was also a God .
She may be able to use Godly powers right now but losing her wing made her greatly weakened and in a proper life and death battle, she probably wouldn’t last against Lucy . What’s more is that she knew Lucy’s character more or less, and she knew that she would achieve her means one way or another, even if it means killing her or forcing her to do things for her .
Holy Light covered her and Lucy and by the next second, they appeared next to a sky-high building in the middle of Séoul . The building was made of transparent glass that cost several thousand dollars a piece and a luxurious pool was on the rooftop . There was also an ’H’ sign that Lucy didn’t understand but her focus was not on that .
Sitting on a chair near the pool was a middle-aged woman who wore a red bikini and laid on her stomach . The woman was enjoying the sun and sometime she would drink from a cocktail next to her .
“It’s her?”
Because the woman was laid on her stomach with her head down, Lucy couldn’t see her appearance but her instinct told her that she’s definitely Claudia .
“The one in the shameful looking clothes, the red ones . ”
The two of them were floating not far from Claudia and with Delia’s Holy Light, no one could detect them . Despite feeling unstoppable hatred for the woman in her vision, Lucy held her killing intent from leaking out . After staring at Claudia for a couple of minutes, she coldly smiled and mumbled
“Fine then, our roads finally crossed and hell shall fall upon you . . . . but not yet, not just yet . . . I’ll let you enjoy life until he comes reaping your soul . . . I’ll just prepare things for him, just like a good wife would do . ”
After saying that, Lucy no longer bothered with Claudia and flew away from the buildings . She descended in a deserted alley and wore the mask she bought from the ’Treasure Pavillon’ . Her hair became dark but her appearance was only altered a bit, as to not attract too much attention . She still looked as pretty as ever but only slightly worse than her normal appearance, she purposely did that so that Arthur would notice her when he comes .
Sitting around and waiting for him is not doable anymore, she would do her best to make things better and easier for him . First thing is learning to live in here, slowly gaining fame and approaching Claudia, doing it abruptly and kidnapping her then torturing her is too plain and not satisfying enough . If Arthur ever wanted to do that when he comes back, Lucy would even prepare the room for him to do to her what he wants, nothing sexual of course or it’s him who would be punished not Claudia .
’You better not cheat on me whenever you are or . . . . Hmpf!’
While wearing black leather clothes, a brown jacket, Lucy left the alley and headed to the main street . She had gold but it didn’t appear that it was the currency used in here . There were many people who wore gold rings or jewelry but most of them were fake . In the past week, she traveled around and managed to comprehend the Korean language but she still didn’t master it yet . As for Delia, she knew a couple of words, even a God can’t learn that quickly unless they have an ability like Arthur .
Delia didn’t bother changing her appearance but only wore some clothes but they were still too eye-catching as they were golden .
“What are you doing? Change your appearance!”
Lucy snapped at her but Delia just shrugged her shoulders and said
“They can’t see me so why bother? Moreover, changing my appearance is a disgrace to all gods! They should kneel before me instead of me changing my appearance . ”
“I said change your appearance and stop hiding your presence, now! I don’t need you if you’re just going to hold me back . ”
Lucy was going to seek fame and attention but she didn’t want it that way . Delia told her that there were hundreds of dungeons here but all of them were low-leveled for beings like her . There were also some strong people but they’re still ants for a Goddess like her .
“*Sigh* This is bullying!”
Delia stomped her feet and her figure flashed for a second before her clothes changed to a purple dress that covered a small part of her body . Her figure was as voluptuous and alluring as ever, with two snow peaks on her chest area and her beautiful curves .
She obviously didn’t change her appearance but Lucy didn’t insist further as she knew how stubborn Delia was, it’s fine as long as she gets rid of that single piece of cloth she was wearing . It literally only covered her nipples and lower body part, nothing else apart from that, even the calm Miya would turn red when she focuses on her cloth .
“Where are you going? I’ll just teleport us there . ”
Delia didn’t like the fact that she was walking alongside mortals and some of the men would sometimes gaze at her with perverted eyes, she couldn’t help but cover her chest and change her purple dress into more appropriate clothes . Lucy was also breathtaking but compared to Delia’s true appearance, she was ignored by them, which was a fortunate thing .
What was good is that unlike Astria, people on Earth didn’t openly gaze at them or try to talk to them, apart from a few daring men, none stared for more than a couple of seconds .
Lucy didn’t fully know all the shops or merchants in here but she saw a shop that sells jewelry and gold in general so she and Delia headed there to see if the gold she has could be traded for money .
Money in here was iron or bronze coins or mostly paper bills that looked odd and had some characters and a picture on them from time to time . She remembers 3 of those money bills and each of them had a number of them, obviously, each number indicated the value of the paper .
There were 1,000 Won, 10,000 Won, 5,000 Won and 50,000 Won, there was also a rare 100,000 Won that she didn’t see often . Lucy could very easily steal money from any bypasser with them not noticing a thing but it was degrading to rob when she had so many golds .
The shop they entered displayed various golden rings with diamonds and stuff on them, there were necklaces or earrings too .
The shop had a few middle-aged women gazing at the products and the receptionist was standing next to an old lady and showing a diamond necklace to her .
’Ring ring ring’
When the shop door was opened, a ringing sound was made . It was a mechanism the shop owner put so any customer could be heard when they left or entered the shop .
Seeing two gorgeous looking ladies, one of the employees dashed to them while rubbing his hands . A greedy smile was plastered on his ugly face as he looked at Lucy and Delia . It was obvious from their appearances that they are not poor and have a good background, so he wanted to grasp this chance and sell a few expensive stuff . It was their shop’s lucky day as the old lady on the corner was also a well-known rich individual who spent money on jewelry as she adored them .
