Lady Invincible

Chapter 18

After one more awakening, it would be possible to move between spaces freely, but for now, this isn't too much.

After leaving Inoaden, she had to use a public carriage.

At first, the coachman looked at Hilise in her pajamas as if she were a psychopath.

She had to pay her carriage fare, but she didn't have the money, so Hilise gave him a button from her pajamas.

Inoaden's pattern was engraved there.

The coachman looked at the button and Hilise alternately with eyes wide open.

There was no doubt about Hilise's appearance, as she has the characteristics of an Inoaden. So, when he was told to charge Inoaden for the carriage's fare, he immediately climbed onto the coachman's seat.

The place Hilise was heading to was a place that could be called a hotbed of crime.

"Are you really okay? It's not a place where a precious one should come alone...."

A back alley where people gather like bugs, hiding in the darkness in a colorful city, and doing all sorts of illegal things.

People called this place 'the 'underground.'

As it was originally, it was natural for a person who grew up finely in a house like Hilise to have never even heard of its existence.

Moreover, there was no occasion for her to come to a place like this.

However, Hilise hesitantly left behind the coachman and stepped into the dark alley without hesitation.

The way she moved around as if she found it familiar.

The narrow alley was filled with unknown odor and unpleasant moisture.

Mice would often pop out and go across her feet.

"Come on... Jacques, that man will be making ten more golds."

Then, after a while, the voices of men came from the front.

"He has to fix his dog-like temper."

"Even if you ask me a hundred times to give you the right amount of product, you always get upset at me when you feel wronged."

"I asked you to pay the credit price this time. Tch!"

She deliberately chose a path that people wouldn't be able to get around easily, but it seemed impossible to avoid encountering someone completely.

Hilise took advantage of her ability to step on the floor and leap upward.

As soon as she climbed onto the roof, a group of men appeared.

"I'm in a good mood. Let's go get some drinks."

"Before that, I need to stop by the house first."

If a woman were walking around these alleys alone in a Hilise-like outfit, it would cause a hundred quarrels. She had no intention of wasting time in a place like this and confronting other humans.

Hilise's steps moved again without delay. She moved along the roof like a street cat.

"Huh? Is it just me? Do you smell flowers..."

It was a place where she had been before, so she remembered the path to her destination because each time she went there, it was an intense experience.

When she looked around from the roof, she could see more clearly where she was heading.

The tallest building in this dirty back alley.
