Chapter 166: Infiltration Start

"Halt! State your business in our City!"

"Remove your cloaks!"

In front of a huge gate, a couple of guards were surrounding two people covered in cloaks, pointing their weapons even before they approached their reach.

"..." With the guards' weapons threatening to cut them down, one of the covered individuals slowly removed her cloak, revealing her luscious ash-grey hair-- Nisha. She then shook her head, allowing her hair to fall on her shoulders, causing the huge bag she was carrying on her back to wiggle.

The guards could only look at each other as they failed to recognize who this somewhat beautiful woman is. If she lived in the City, they would surely know who she was.

"I have with me Latanya Boss!" Nisha then shouted, her voice trying to seep into the city.

"...Latanya who?"

As soon as Nisha heard the confusion in the guards' voices, she quickly took off the cloak that was covering the person behind her, revealing Latanya; her arms tightly locked onto her body with a rope, and her mouth gagged by cloth.

"Who… is that?"

"Tell whoever is in charge that the mass murderer Latanya is alive and has escaped from the Wall!"

"E… escape from the Wall?"

"You're from the Village!?"

The guards tightened their guards as they realized where Nisha was from. Nisha, on the other hand, did not even flinch one bit as she continued to shout at the guards.

"You do not even know who Latanya is!? Bring me to one who actually has the authority he--"

"Stand down!"

Before Nisha could finish her ramblings, the gate to the City opened, with an old woman in an embroidered and decorated guard's uniform coming out.

"What is going on here?" The old woman raised her voice. Her eyes then trailed towards Nisha before falling onto Latanya, scanning her from head to toe.

Dark skin and long braided hair, "Did you say Latan--"

The old woman was about to say something, but as soon as her eyes fell on Latanya's gigantic breasts, she let out a loud gasp.

"Y… you're alive!?"

"!!!"

Nisha's grip almost gave out as Latanya suddenly rushed towards the old woman. Nisha could hear her growling, causing her to slap her in the face. "D… don't struggle too much," she then whispered into her ear.

The old woman slightly backed away as she saw the fire of rage in Latanya's eyes. She then looked at Nisha with an amused expression, "You're from the Village?"

"...Yes."

"And you captured her?"

"Yes. I saw her outside the Wall and captured her. I have heard of her treacherous crimes against this glorious City when I was younger…

...I heard that she was an ugly witch that preyed on little children! Eating them whole without any chance of escape!"

"..."

"I am here as a loyal citizen to the City to offer this vile witch to you!" Nisha said as she closed one of her fists and placed it on her chest.

"I… I see," the old woman could not help but be weirded out by Nisha's words. But afterwards, she cleared her throat and approached Nisha, "Then give her to us now."

But before the old woman could grab Latanya, Nisha pulled Latanya back. "I wish to present her as a gift to our glorious President!"

"That's not--"

"I also have a treasure that came from the Wall inside my bag and wish to offer it as well!" Nisha continued her loud speech, "All I wish is to see the Glorious City even once with my own eyes and meet our Glorious President!"

"..." Seeing the excitement and sincerity inside Nisha's eyes, the old woman could only shake her head as she let out a long and deep sigh.

"Fine. I will report this to the higher-ups for now. Wait inside my office in the meantime."

"..."

"T… thank you, oh glorious citizen of the City!"

The two were then led past the gate, but before they could fully enter the City, they were led to the old woman's office and told to wait.

As soon as they were left alone, Latanya started to violently shake her head in an attempt to remove the gag in her mouth.

"S… stop moving!" Nisha said as she removed the gag in Latanya's mouth.

"Isn't this more of a suicide?" Latanya quickly whispered as soon as she felt her mouth free, "They will kill you once we get into their castle, that's what they did to me and my men."

"We will see," Nisha sighed, "It is a gamble from here on out. What happened to you was already 60 years ago… so the one sitting on top should be different now. But if not…

...I can always escape."

"How would you--"

Before Latanya could finish her words, Nisha once again gagged her mouth as she heard someone opening the door.

"The President wishes to meet you."

"!!!"

It… it worked!? Both Nisha and Latanya tried their best to prevent the noises of excitement that wanted to burst out from inside them. This could still be an ambush, but they already knew that and will be prepared for it. Besides… they have a secret weapon.

The two then were escorted outside the office. The old woman inspected the huge bag that Nisha was carrying but saw nothing but food and clothes in it. She couldn't help but ask where this supposed treasure is that Nisha wanted to give the President, but she said that it was only for the President to see.

"..."

And surprisingly enough, the old woman just furrowed her eyebrows before telling them to follow her.

Along the way, Nisha could not help but let out a short breath as she saw the living conditions in the City. There truly was quite a disparity in the way the people here are living compared to the population in the Village.

Their clothes were almost similar to what they have back in the outside world. No… there was almost no difference, even their houses were similar to the ones they have in some of the major cities outside.

It would seem that even inside the Pit, some things do not change in the history of men-- there would always be a difference in class.

The people in the streets were also starting to look at them as if they were some sort of entertainment; some even looked scared of them.

"..." If there was a change to make the lives of the children in the Village the same as here, then she was all for it.

The City was big and it took almost half an hour for them to reach the President's castle; and immediately, they were brought to a huge hallway.

"Wait here, I will tell the President and his company that you are here." The old woman said before she closed the door behind them.

"!!!" Latanya quickly tapped Nisha's arms as soon as the old woman left; her expression grave. This was where she and her men were ambushed 60 years ago.

"...Just wait," Nisha whispered. But although she said that, she too was on high alert as she readied to cut Latanya loose as soon as something goes wrong.

The two then flinched at the same time as the door of the hallway once again opened… but instead of soldiers, what greeted them was a group of gentlemen…

...Led by a fat boy.
