Chapter 945
“You won’t hurt Master!” Salicia shouted defensively.
“Now, I know you couldn’t possibly be my sister. My sister would never defy me like this!”
While Salicia was standing in front of me, protecting me with her life, I could only feel a deep affection for her. Finding out that Carmine was alive had been shocking, but I had no particular deep feelings for her. As for Salicia thinking, Carmine was a dungeon fragment like her, I was more sensitive to these kinds of things, and I saw no trace of this. The only conclusion I could make is that the dungeon Deek had brainwashed the real Carmine!
However, my focus quickly left them, as there was still the matter of the dungeon Deek. If he switched with Carmine, then, where was he?

The girls cried out, spinning around to see dungeon Deek casually surveying the situation with his arms crossed, a somewhat angry glower on his face. The girls moved to either side, creating a pathway between us, still looking back and forth between the two of us as if they didn’t know what to do. I had to give it to Lord Reign. This tactic of his was much more effective than I would have thought.
“Do I need to provide any more proof? He tried to kill me and even attacked his own slave. This is clearly not me.”
“You…” I stepped toward him, ready to attack again.
“Bernice.” He snorted. “Haven’t you always wanted to shoot me?”
“My pleasure.”
A woman I had never seen before but seemed strangely familiar stepped forward. While she was a stranger, the things she pulled out were not. My eyes widened in shock, and my foot stopped.
“H-How did you get a gun?” I cried out.
She pointed the weapon at me and fired. A blast shot out. I may have grown powerful, but being able to use a sword and being able to fight a gun were two different concepts entirely. Just as I saw my life flashing before my eyes, a form appeared in front of me. Celeste stood between me and the bullet. She used her wind magic, and as the bullet approached, she slapped it away with the wind. The bullet’s trajectory changed, hitting the wall behind me, and causing Lydia and Carmine to move out of the way.
The woman named Bernice seemed surprised that her bullet hadn’t landed. She began to fire bullet after bullet. Celeste kept moving, slapping them away one at a time. She could only just change the trajectory enough that they missed both her and me. I realized at that moment that to accomplish this, Celeste’s speed was greater than that of a bullet!

“Ahhh! It’s not my fault some big-breasted bimbo got in my way!”
“Celeste, why are you defending him? I’m the real Deek!” He declared.
“Deek is Deek!” Celeste cried out, her eyes closed. “I don’t understand what’s happening. Deek is Deek, and I will protect him. If there are two Deeks, I will protect two Deeks. If there are two Masters, I will love both Masters!”
Leave it to Celeste to not be able to grasp what was going on. I supposed I could forgive her for getting confused. She was protecting my life, after all.
“Enough of this. Girls, kill this man!” I ordered coldly.
“You… everyone, don’t hold back. Kill the imposter!” The other Deek declared.
