Taming The Villainesses novel Chapter 87

(EP-87.2) Club #6

087 – Adventure Club #6

Worried and unsure of Marmar’s scream, Kalira awkwardly added.

“If it’s too small, we can up it to 100,000 coins.”

“1... 100,000 coins...!!!”

Marmar seemed on the verge of going crazy.

“If I have 100,000 coins, that’s 20 cutlets a day.... 500 eggs.... Hehe, I’ll, I’ll be rich. If I hatch the ⊛ Nоvеlιght ⊛ (Read the full story) eggs, I’ll have 500 chickens. If 500 chickens lay eggs....”

Seeing Marmar’s condition getting worse, Kalira rummaged through her pockets.

“Is she still hallucinating? I have no more antidote, what should I do?”

“No, it’s okay. She’s just like that.”

“I’m thinking of having her as an assistant. Or maybe at the reception desk since she looks cute. But I’m a little concerned....”

It seemed that Marmar’s actions reduced Kalira’s favorability.

At the end, Marmar’s tail was drooping helplessly, “I don’t like being an assistant either-.”

All in all, managing the relationship between subordinates was definitely more difficult than expected...

“This is the door.”

We went down to the basement with Kalira. Seeing the door, Kalira checked the place and sighed.

“There is a reason the two of you had hallucinations of spiders at the same time. Look there.”

Kalira pointed her finger at the floor in front of the door.

Now that I could see it, there was a rug or carpet in front of the metal door, with a spider embroidered in black thread.

“I sense a magical energy from it. Maybe it’s like a talisman that induces unpleasant visions to unwelcome visitors.”

So this plus hallucinogens combined to create that spider nightmare.

“It’s been abandoned for a long time, but seeing that it still works, despite the weakened state, you can see how good the craftsmanship is.”

“It’s like a spell, right?”

“Indeed.”

As expected, it was some form of magic or spell. My calm thinking skill seemed to be quite adept at deducing such things.

However, we really had to suffer because of this stupid carpet!

“Tsk-.”

It was upsetting. Sweeping away the carpet also revealed a pile of spider husks underneath, which made my frown deeper.

“Ugh-.”

“Dried spiders!”

Meanwhile, Marmar was delighted at the discovery and put them in her bag...

“Dried spiders can be used for medicine. It is a valuable ingredient.”

“No one asked you, red eyes!”

Marmar stuck her tongue out at Kalira. However, Kalira’s interest was on the metal door, touching it.

“It’s definitely a bit odd to have a lock that works from the outside. There is also magic at the entrance. However, it doesn’t seem like there’s anything particularly dangerous about it for now.”

Serueng, Tok. Tong.

Kalira opened the rusty lock that we didn’t even move an inch of. Marmar and I could only tremble at the nonchalance...

“See! Red eyes are dangerous! You can’t have someone like that as a subordinate!”

Even in the midst of it all, Marmar was still relentlessly against Kalira.

It was like a fox cursing spoiled milk for being sour.
