Chapter 77: New Base Required!
(*Celia’s POV*)
Rather than drag Cenri into another huge fight, I decided to just go hide out on a high building. Hey, it doesn’t seem like that they have anyone that can fly, so it shouldn’t be that bad of an idea, right?
Celia: “Ria, our base has been discovered.” I say after calling her.
Ria: “I am aware of that, yes. Where are you at the moment? I will guide you to our second base.” She replied.
We have a second base? Oh, cool. I told Ria where we were, and then she came to pick us up. Unlike our other base, this one was in the house of a noble lady. Yes, one of the women that we got into power. April has already fully scoped out the noble’s district, so it is unlikely for us to get caught again.
Though, like before, this hideout was mainly underground. Rather than under a shack, this was just a secret underground part of this estate. Of course, not even the queen knows about it. So it is a safe place to plan a coup. As I entered the planning area, I was face to face with June. Actually, June was bowing to me…
June: “I am sorry about before, Celia. I needed to seem completely loyal to my mother.” She said with a remorseful tone.
Celia: “I understand, so it’s fine. Don’t worry about it.” I reply.
June: “…”
Ria: “June, do you have the final plan in mind?” She asked.
Cenri: “Ah, don’t mind me. I will just go sit somewhere else.” She said before going over and sitting down on a couch.
June: “Um… Who is that?” She asked with a concerned tone.
Celia: “Someone that we met shortly after coming to this continent. Don’t you remember that they used her as a hostage?” I reply.
June: “She was actually related to you!? I just thought that they kidnapped a random woman, and claimed that you knew her…” She said with a shocked tone.
Celia: “Yeah, we know her. So? Do you have a plan?” I ask with a curious tone.
June: “First, we have to use the body of that last noble that you killed.” She replied.
Celia: “Hm? Ah, I already strung him up in the town square before we came here.” I reply.
June: “Okay… Then we have to figure out how to kill my mother.” She said with a sigh.
Hm… What an interesting sentence to say… I wonder why she is so hung up on coming up with a plan? We have dealt with all of her loyal supporters, I killed a bunch of her guards, so shouldn’t all we have to do is just raid her place and kill April?
You could be reading stolen content. Head to Royal Road for the genuine story.
June: “Celia, it isn’t as easy as you would expect.” She said.
Celia: “Why not?” I ask with a head tilt.
June: “April has a Goddess on her side. Before you ask, she somehow managed to mind control her. Ah, here, I wrote down both of their Statuses.” She explained.
On a piece of paper were the Statuses for April and this Goddess that she mentioned. When Ria and I looked at the paper, even we were stumped on what to do…

April wasn’t that big of a deal, as she was already the max level for humans. Though, for a human, she was crazy powerful. It is no wonder how she was able to get away with her crimes for so long. But the real problem, is the Goddess…

What the flying fuck? This damn woman is almost fucking max everything! How the ever living fuck did April mind control someone this powerful!? No, really. Even fucking Ria is shocked…
Ria: “Celia, do not be alarmed, as I know Miracle.” She said with a serious tone.
Celia: “You do?” I ask.
Ria: “Yes, she is my friend. Like that cheeky Creator, she is the same kind of being. How she got mind controlled… Well, it is sadly very obvious…” She said with a sigh.
Celia: “Are you stronger than her?” I ask with a nervous tone.
Ria: “Me? No. I still have many levels before I become a True Goddess. Miracle is actually stronger than me.” She answered.
June: “Then what the hell are we supposed to do?” She asked with a frustrated tone.
Ria: “I did mention why she got mind controlled, right?” She asked.
Celia: “You did, but you didn’t explain what you meant.” I reply.
Ria: “It’s a fetish of hers.” She replied.
Celia: “…”
June: “…”
Celia: “Run that by us again, please.” I ask with spiral eyes.
Ria: “We’re sex friends. One of her fetishes includes being mind controlled.” She explained once more.
June: “Okay, but how does knowing one of her fetishes help us out at all?” She asked with a deadpan tone.
Ria: “Miracle always used the same safe word, which would break her out of the mind control.” She answered.
Celia: “Let me guess, the safe word is pineapple, right?” I jokingly ask.
Ria: “Huh!? How the hell did you figure that out? Yeah, that is her safe word.” She said with a shocked expression on her face.
June: “…”
Celia: “…”
Ria: “Do not feel embarrassed, June. Miracle most likely had a fling with your mother, and then got played.” She said with a giggle.
So, an old sex friend of Ria’s is our new enemy?… Well, at least we can just snap her out of the trance. Once we achieve that, then we can easily deal with the mad queen, April. I don’t recall her having such a name, but I would say that it is fitting.
June: “Alright then, rest up for tonight, and then we will raid the castle to kill April.” She said with a serious tone.
Just one more task, and then I can finally wake up Yona from her slumber… That is, assuming that June actually does know a method to wake her up… I mean, she hasn’t led us astray let, so it should be fine, right?… Fuck! I can’t jinx myself now! Just brain! Just be happy for once, goddammit!…
