Chapter 14 Hanging
Oliya turned around and saw three figures dressed in black robes surrounding her, slowly closing in.

[Bio Level: 33]
Oliya immediately abandoned the idea of resisting with force, and tore off her black robe, revealing her beautiful and noble figure.
"I am the youngest daughter of the Earl of Ston. What do you want?"
"We've tied you up. That mad dog in Orlando isn't willing to share any of the profits, so we're just tying you up to give him a wake-up call."
The robbers sneered, realizing they already knew Oliya's identity.
"Boss, save me!"
Olivia initiated a distress call, which proved highly effective.

"A quick victory is needed; transferring life points through a soul contract consumes too much."
"Fireball!"
Oria raised her right hand, and magic rapidly condensed, forming a blazing fireball in her palm. The temperature was so high that the surrounding air was distorted.
"Heh, a low-level spell like Fireball can be used in combat?"
The robber in the middle scoffed, saying that this kind of magic, with its extremely long wind-up and the ability to only fire in a straight line, could never actually hit anyone in actual combat without teammates to control it.
He raised his hand to conjure a wall of water and continued walking forward, completely ignoring the fireballs shooting towards him.
The fireball flew dozens of meters in the blink of an eye, and just a second before it was about to hit the water wall and be neutralized, it...
It turned a corner.
The fireball traced a beautiful arc, the flames rising and falling above the robbers' heads, instantly igniting the unsuspecting bandits.
"what!"
[Remember the fastest online novel website: 202ᴋᴋs.ᴄᴏᴍ]
The robber let out a bloodcurdling scream, but within three seconds his head was burned to a crisp and he lay motionless on the ground.
"How could a fireball possibly curve!?"
The remaining two were terrified and could not believe what they were seeing.
"Fireball!"
Oria didn't answer their questions, but simply focused on condensing a fireball, which was the most damaging spell she knew.
"Something's wrong with her. We don't need to hold back anymore; saving her life is the priority."
One of them reacted and charged forward, his greatsword flashing out afterimages.
Double Slash
He rushed to Olya in a few steps, his greatsword unleashing two tangible sword energies in the air, aiming straight for the girl's head.
At this moment, the fireball in Olya's hand was not even half-formed, and she was powerless to stop the robbers from getting close.
The robber smiled. So what if Oliya was acting strangely? He just needed to catch her during the animation so she couldn't use her skills.
"Clang!"
The robber's ecstatic expression froze. The greatsword slashed at Olya's slender neck, but the expected butter-slicing sensation did not occur. Instead, he felt a powerful shock.
It was as if he were chopping down an indestructible mountain; the greatsword stopped at Oliya's skin, unable to advance an inch, and his hands were almost shattered by the impact.
"Boss, I love you!"
Olivia was so frightened that her heart almost jumped out of her chest. While praising Caesar, she fired a fireball at the robber's face.
The robber leaped backward rapidly, activating his defensive combat skill, "Sword Dance."
He wielded the greatsword with the lightness of the wind, trying to catch the trajectory of the fireball.
However, the fireball was faster than the wind, and within a few breaths it ignited the robber's heart.
The last one, seeing the situation was turning against him, tried to run, but was desperately chased by low-level magic and had his body set on fire.
"Remember to cover your tracks."
At Caesar's prompting, Olya cast a few more fireballs, giving the three robbers a free cremation.
The stingy Caesar immediately withdrew Olivia's cheat code.
In just a short while, Caesar's life points shrank by several thousand.
Oliya felt the power of the cheat leaving her, and she felt empty inside, with a sense of reluctance.
"Boss, will I be able to experience this power again in the future?"
"Using cheat codes can cost you your parents."
"What do you mean?"
"It's nothing."
Caesar brushed it off, saying, "Go back when your guards arrive. Just pretend those three never happened tonight."
He realized he had underestimated Olya. He had thought she was a naive and innocent girl, but now it seemed she might not be so naive after all.
…………
"How did you get to level 24 already?!"
After finding Olya, the guards finally reported everything that had happened that day.
Oliya's explanation for running away on her own was that she wanted to see up close what the new light pillars in the dungeon looked like.
That pillar of light is destructive; only legendary-level powerhouses can enter it.
The guards would certainly not agree to such a dangerous act, and her explanation was reasonable.
Orlando was furious when he learned of all this, but fortunately, Olya took all the blame herself, so the guard didn't lose his job.
Orlando had intended to teach his mischievous sister a lesson.
But when he asked her to stand by the door and take the pointer, he suddenly realized that his loved one's vitality had increased significantly.
Once he activated [Insight], he discovered that Olivia had leveled up three times overnight.
!!!
Oria said pitifully, "It's the grand prize. I lost the grand prize card, but it seems to have a compensation mechanism. Part of it was converted into magic power to compensate me."
"By now, it's almost completely used up."
This was a spur-of-the-moment idea Caesar had come up with after hearing that the creation of the "Succubus Warrior" had failed, and he had to make contingency plans to prevent the collapse of the succubus industry.
Orlando's heart tightened. He couldn't care less about punishing Olya now; he just felt dizzy.
If this news is true, he won't have to worry about any serious problems arising after the second update to North Dungeon.
Whether or not he performs ruthless tasks, he can foresee other nobles extending their influence into the North Underground City.
"It's over, it's over, the dungeon can't be defended..."
Orlando muttered to himself and left dejectedly, which broke Olya's heart.
After the robbery that night, Olya understood the pressure her brother was under, but there was nothing she could do.
As someone on Caesar's side, she naturally didn't want any force to restrict the development of the North Underground City.
"I'm sorry, brother, I'm already the boss's woman."
