Chapter 30: Chapter 30: The Duke’s Mysterious Young Miss
When Yue Yue reached the Black Fang Command Tower, she was immediately looking everywhere with wide eyes.
Everything here looked so huge and so sharp and so dark, like the entire building was carved from black crystal and metal.
She held the food box tightly because she had also brought the lunch she packed especially for Han Soi. She thought she could give it to him and at the same time ask if she could find the polluted meat.
Her heart was beating very fast because she had never been to such a place filled with soldiers and high-level machines. Even the air felt different here as she looked inside and outside through the hovercar window.
But as the hovercar reached the entrance, they were suddenly stopped at the gate. The guards there were instantly alert and confused because the maid with her was clearly from the Duke’s household.
The maid had the official authorization, so the guard almost choked on his own breath when he saw the Duke’s premium hover car coming directly into the command tower’s landing zone.
People simply did not use the Duke’s hovercar casually. So the guard stared at the car like he had seen a ghost and kept thinking who in the world could be coming from the Duke’s side.
The moment they were allowed inside, Yue Yue looked around again, and everything looked even more beautiful up close.
The place had a dark charm to it, like the winged black serpent crest she had seen before. She did not even notice that she was completely lost in her fantasy about how impressive everything looked.
While she was admiring all this, the entire command tower had already fallen into complete chaos because someone from the Duke’s family had actually come inside.
This was the first time such a thing happened since everyone knew the Duke’s relationship with the winged serpent clan was not good, and no one from his side ever came here.
So now if someone came in his personal hovercar, then who was it? Everyone became extremely curious and nervous at the same time.
Soon the soldiers began lining up along the walkway, pretending to stand straight but actually trying to peek inside the hovercar.
They were all whispering among themselves because they thought someone came here to cause trouble for their Duke. They were already prepared to stop the person.
So when the hovercar finally reached the central landing platform where all hovercars must stop, everyone held their breath.
The robotic maid stepped out first, and the soldiers stiffened like statues. The robot then turned toward the door and helped someone step out. Everyone leaned forward together so fast that they almost fell over each other.
Then the female stepped out.
The entire place went dead silent.
She was too beautiful and graceful. And definitely not the kind of person who belonged in a place full of scary beasts and metal weapons.
All the soldiers stared at her with the exact same expression of shock, confusion, admiration, and complete disbelief.
One soldier even blinked so hard that his helmet screen flickered. Another one quietly whispered, "Did... did an angel get lost...?"
Yue Yue became nervous instantly when she saw so many people staring at her like that. She held the maid’s arm tightly because this maid was the only familiar thing around her.
She followed silently, trying not to trip over her own feet. The robotic maid led her forward calmly and finally stopped in front of a man standing straight in a black uniform.
The maid bowed slightly and spoke clearly, "Young Miss is here to meet the Master."
The man’s eyes widened so fast they almost popped out. He had heard the rumors that the Duke brought a female back from the polluted zone.
And now he was seeing this beautiful girl with his own eyes. He immediately looked at the robot and recognized her as one of the Duke’s customized personal units.
The Duke never let random people come near him, so if the head robot maid was escorting her personally, then this female was definitely important to the Duke. His heart shook a little as he quickly bowed and said, "Young Miss."
Just this address alone made the entire group of soldiers gasp together.
Young Miss??
So this beautiful girl was not some random outsider?
She was connected to the Master?
She was brought back personally?
Now the whole hallway exploded with silent screaming in their heads. Some orcs looked at each other with faces full of disbelief. Some were blushing because Yue Yue looked gentle and pure, like a soft glowing plant in a deadly polluted jungle.
A few strong orcs immediately began thinking stupid things like, if she was not married, could they apply to become one of her beast husbands, or would the Duke break all their bones if they tried?
One even lowered his head and mumbled, "Is she already of age... I want to apply for her beast husband position..."
Another orc hit him on the back and whispered, "Idiot, she is obviously the Duke’s female. Do you want to die today?"
They kept arguing quietly until their captain glared at them, and they all froze again like stone pillars.
The man in charge finally recovered and quickly stepped forward to guide Yue Yue.
"Young Miss, please follow me. I will lead you to the Duke." And immediately they began walking through the corridor while all the orcs watched silently like hungry wolves watching a very precious rare fruit being carried away. freewebnovel.cσ๓
Their eyes sparkled with curiosity, admiration, and respect, and also a little fear because if this girl was truly connected to their Duke, then she was someone extremely important.
Yue Yue felt all those eyes on her and became even more nervous, holding the self-heating lunchbox carefully. She kept her head down but still peeked around because everything looked very advanced and very high-tech.
She followed the man deeper inside, completely unaware that the entire command tower was already talking about her like a storm had erupted inside the building
