Chapter 344: Enter the Maze
A very sore Ferro groaned as he stepped into the maze, finding an embarrassed-looking Lawre staring very intently at the key.
He was glad he wasn’t dead, but he hadn’t anticipated Star’s sheer enthusiasm for having his expectations defied... There was definitely something crazy about what had just happened.
For that matter, Star was practically glowing from sated lust, and he came up behind Ferro with an encouraging slap on the behind that made the catkin bristle from his toes to the tips of his ears.
"That hurt, dammit!"
"Oh please, you’ll live, and you might even continue to surprise me, rawr," the demon teased. "But, hmm, what are we dealing with here?"
"The Labyrinthian’s heart, obviously," Ferro replied, his tone as sore as his backside.
"Th-the place with all the naked ladies?" Lawre blushed through his fur all the way up to his ears.
What the- Oh. Donrowr’s journal. Ferro had largely skimmed it because it was so full of drivel. But for all his lies Donrowr had made it at least this far, probably. For all Ferro knew, the man had interviewed more capable adventurers before composing his personal epic.
"Well, it wouldn’t be the first time I’ve been in such a dungeon. Though that was my dungeon, of course."
"You have a dungeon?" Lawre’s ears twitched with excitement.
"Not that kind of dungeon!" Ferro interjected. "Gods, Star, don’t corrupt the kid."
