Chapter 399: The Deal Pt.35

Before long Tiff's prediction that the people who had gone after Lake would come back came true and she was able to squeeze in between two of them to get through the next door. The base ended up being exactly what she had always been told it would be during her training with a thick smell of blood and rotting meat.

She ignored it and just started walking behind the biggest of the Demon Worshipers that had chased after Lake because they were the easiest to squeeze in next to without it being obvious that someone was inside their base again.

She wasn't sure if what just happened with Lake would make it easier or harder for her to sneak around unnoticed but with her skill purposely being designed to hide someone like her she didn't think it mattered as long as she didn't do something stupid like run into something and that was why following around someone large was a good move until she found out where the giant was.

The small spaces of this underground base made her think that there was a good chance the giant was close by instead of actually being here in town with the other Demon Worshipers but she couldn't know for sure until she heard someone talk about where it was or had personally gone through every part of this place while following this Demon Worshiper.

"Did you see what they looked like?" Hearing a voice come from behind her she turned to see a man who was almost wearing nothing trying to talk to the group she was following. Getting out of the way so no one would bump into her as they turned around Tiff got into a corner of the room to listen to what had happened with Lake.

"No, we didn't, he was gone before we made it outside. Did they steal your armor?" It seemed the man's near-nakedness wasn't the norm and he was supposed to have armor. "Yes, it was gone when I finally climbed out of the ground. I'm not sure how they took it off me though. Probably the same skill that made the ground like that."

"Do you plan to tell Domela what happened?" Domela was the name of a giant for sure so Tiff was disappointed when the naked man said. "There's no need to go now. We can just tell them when we gather for our summoning."

This told her that at some point they would go to wherever the giant was but not when so she had no idea how long she would have to wait and it could be a problem. She had mana potions for emergency situations where she was going to run out of mana but only a few so at most she would only be able to stay invisible for about a day.

This meant stealing a face would be a cheaper way for her to pass the time but it wouldn't be as safe since she would be forced to interact with the Demon Worshipers so maybe letting a few more hours pass first in the hopes they were about to go to the giant would be for the best.

This armor was probably the best item he had acquired today if you were only talking about the total bonus but he had no plans of leaving this in here forever only until he was sure no one was after him for having it so it's boring bonuses didn't really matter to him.

Getting back up onto his feet Lake started to run back to the guild even though he had five or so hours until it could be considered night time and could probably go after one more thing on the way back. It was a waste because he would have loved a bit more Perception before going home but he needed to be careful.

Drawing the line now before he overdid it and was a little late getting back because there was clearly something big going on with the Demon Lord even if he didn't know exactly what it was and the last thing he needed was to meet him face to face on the way back to the guild.

...

Slipping out of the bathroom with the man she had come in with Tiff couldn't believe she had never even considered having to watch something like that while trying to sneak around. Most people who had ever talked to her about her ability to turn invisible had asked her if she did foul things with it, which she never did, but you would think it would make her realize having to sit through someone using the bathroom to keep her cover was a possible situation.

She never had thought and to be honest she would have still done it even if she had seen it coming if it was necessary but in this citation if she had known the next door led to a bathroom she could have just waited in the bedroom area till the Demon Worshiper was done.

She had made it through it so now all she needed was to follow this guy away from here until she identified a better target that she could turn into if it got too dangerous to continue sneaking around. The god of Light had said the face was really the only part of her that would change which made her think she was going to need someone closer to her size to blend in.
