Chapter 34
Why Didn’t Joker Force Batman to Wear Female Clothes?
Cleveland’s expression changed.
This knight who was famous for his bravery, loyalty, and integrity had shocking courage and dared to pull out his blade against all the powerful enemies. However, now, his face was ashen and his expression was very shaken.
“This… is too ridiculous!” He rejected flatly, “I can’t accept it!”
Kang De said calmly, “In other words, you’d rather let Tina be the bait?”
“This…” The knight stammered, “Of course not!”
Kang De said with a change in expression, “Then you mean to let me come? Let me, a Cathayan who can stay out of this, rush to the danger in your place?”
The knight blushed. He had an extremely strong sense of honor and self-esteem, so how could he do such a thing?
He was flustered and grabbed at his life-saving straw, “…Yes, Lady Bedolla! She has excellent skills and is a woman. It’s easier for her to play this role than me…”
Kang De sighed, “Ah, poor Lady Bedolla. She’s clearly only a head maid, but she has no choice but to carry out dangerous missions. Goethe is really impressive. A servant can also go to the battlefield.”
How could an old-fashioned orthodox knight from another world like Cleveland argue against an online troll like Kang De? That was a mouth that had been nurtured by countless strangers.
His face alternated between green and white, and he even looked a little pitiful.
However, he did not know how to reject it.
A knight could not find excuses.
The princess could not bear to see him like this. She hesitated for a moment and asked, “Kang De, is there no other way?”
Kang De spread out his hands and said, “In any case, I can’t think of anything… With the combat strength of the elves, we have to be extremely careful. No matter what methods we have, we have to deal with all the enemies immediately. We can’t let them send out a distress signal to alarm the companions nearby. According to this train of thought, we have to win by surprise.”
He said as if nothing had happened, “Or we can follow Cleveland’s previous thoughts and let them immediately set sail and exchange the lives of the entire ship for the elves not paying attention to this place.”
How evil.
It was completely forcing Cleveland.
—Either the entire ship dies, or you wear female clothes.
Even the heinous Joker had never given Batman such a problem.
The knight could not endure it at all, but his basic self-esteem as a man drove him to make his last struggle. He gritted his teeth and said, “Even… even if I agree, there are no women’s clothes here!”
He was afraid that Kang De would mock him, so he took the initiative to cut off the conversation, “I’ll say this first. It’s impossible to go back and take the princess’s clothes. Firstly, I can’t wear them. Secondly, there’s a difference in status. I definitely can’t wear her clothes. This is blasphemy!”
Kang De opened his mouth, and the knight immediately said, “I can’t wear the clothes of the maids either! Their clothes are simple, and you said that you wanted me to act as a noble woman, right?”
He said this, then looked at Kang De nervously and proudly.
—Let’s see what else you have to say.
Kang De looked at him quietly, then smiled kindly. “Are you done?”
“…”
Cleveland felt a chill in his heart and could not speak.
—It’s, it’s fine! What’s there to be afraid of?! Could it be that the man, Kang De, who lived alone on such a deserted island, could produce women’s clothes?!
He swallowed. “What… what’s wrong?”
Kang De smiled and said, “I just want to ask. If I can find you a suitable outfit that’s very expensive and gorgeous, you’ll dress up as a woman and cooperate with my plan?”
Knight grabbed another straw to clutch at. “Wait! I suddenly recalled something! I’m a man after all. Even if I dress up as a woman, I don’t look like one! The elves will see through me, right?”
“It’s fine, you can put on makeup. I’ll bring you a full set of makeup and a wig.”
The knight was still struggling. “The shape of my face! The facial contours don’t look like a woman’s! My temperament is also wrong!”
Kang De raised his fist and let go. A necklace fell and swayed in front of the knight. It was the most valuable enchantment item lent to Kang De by the princess—the Beauty Necklace that could increase charm.
He narrowed his eyes and smiled like a child who had succeeded in a conspiracy.
“…”
“…”
—I was careless!
The knight’s heart ached so much that he could not breathe. He was really a little desperate. He suddenly pointed at Kang De and shouted, “Women’s clothes, women’s makeup. Why do you have that kind of thing?!”
Kang De spread out his hands and said, “Don’t misunderstand. That’s not for me. I’m not a pervert.”
“…Are you mocking me?”
Kang De whistled and said, “Of course not. After all, you are making such a huge sacrifice to protect the princess and everyone else. I can’t help but admire you, right?”
“You just want to see me make a fool of myself!” The knight was even more certain of his guess. He said angrily, “It’s not a gentleman’s behavior to tease others. You can’t be so mean!”
Kang De even ignored him and directly said to the princess, who had a subtle expression and wanted to laugh but felt that it was not suitable, “There’s no time to lose. We should set off. The elves are about to land. This place is not far from the north shore. They’ll search here soon… We have to move.”
The topic changed quickly.
The knight quickly changed his mind. He no longer complained and quickly entered his role. He swore to protect the princess’s safety. Her Highness’ safety was more important than his personal honor.
He said, “Ship! If the elves want to search the entire island, at least two groups of people will split up around the coast. It’s very easy to discover the ship that carried us over! We have to think of a way to deal with it!”
When he thought of this, the knight became nervous. Once this small boat was discovered, everything would be over. With the cunning intelligence of the elves, they would definitely be able to analyze a lot of information.
At that time, they could only sail and escape and die in the sea.
He could not care less about dressing up as a woman and immediately grabbed Kang De’s arm, “Mr. Kang De, I’m afraid we have to ask your animal friends for help. We have to immediately go to the sea and move the boat to the land. We have to hide in a place that won’t be easily discovered by the elves… Fire and bashing will leave traces!”
Kang De shook his head and said, “There’s no need. I’ll deal with it. Don’t worry.”
The knight was not at ease. “But…”
Kang De raised his voice. “Alright, I’ll say it!”
The princess also said softly, “Knight, believe in Kang De. He’s also involved in this and will definitely not joke around with his life. We’re not familiar with the situation here, so let’s listen to his arrangements.”
The knight hesitated for a moment before slowly nodding.
“That’s right.”
He snapped his fingers and said to the pigeon, “Second Senior Brother told you where that rift valley is, right? Bring them there. Kangaroo, the few of you follow them and escort them. Help them deal with the footprints along the way so that the elves won’t see through them.”
“Gorilla, follow me. Let’s deal with the ship.”
“Parrot…”
Kang De pointed at this beast who was talking nonsense, “Call some seabirds over and poop here to cover the traces here…”
“Don’t poop on the elves, understand? Their bows are not toys.”
He calmly gave orders. His thoughts became clearer and his words became smoother.
A huge plan was slowly taking shape.
The first step, the second step, the third step, and the general thoughts had already appeared in his mind.
He was suddenly excited and nervous.
Kang De was not a person who was good at calculations, but after coming to this deserted island for a year, other than letting his imagination run wild, he had nothing else to do. When a person was used to thinking about things alone, he would involuntarily think about this and that after encountering something… If this thought was used to fight and destroy, it would be called scheming.
There was a first time for everything… right?
The princess and the knight listened to Kang De and headed into the island. He handed the pen and paper he had brought with him to Tina. On the way, she would write a letter and let the pigeons find a seabird to send to the captain of the southern island to remind the Goethe to contract their vigilance and prepare for battle.
On the other hand, Kang De brought the gorilla to the sea.
The Holy Seal Islands restricted supernatural power. The princess and the knights could not completely destroy a ship, and they could not even do it with magic… but Kang De could do it.
Extraction.
His mind was like a net that spread out and enveloped the entire ship.
The ship slowly disappeared, leaving only many elements that were continuously spinning. No one knew where this ship went, what principle it disappeared in, or what state it continued to exist in…
Kang De pointed at one of the most dazzling light balls.
Element, water movement.
He pondered for a moment and divided this element into two. He injected them into his boots and stepped into the water.
He took small steps and ripples spread. Kang De’s body continuously rose and fell, and it was very difficult to maintain his balance. He only maintained it for a short while before the boot under his feet shattered. Kang De saw the remaining water elements flowing out of the broken boot.
Was it the poor material of the boots or the method of arranging the elements?
Kang De did not have the time to think about this question.
“I’m going to borrow a place from Second Senior Brother,” he said to the gorilla. “I want to go home and make some preparations.”
The gorilla gestured and called out twice, indicating that it understood.
The gorilla knew Kang De’s greatest secret because it was the one who had encountered him in the beginning. At that time, Kang De was still an ordinary Earthling who had difficulty surviving. The man and beast lived together. In an extremely dangerous battle, Kang De was forced to activate his ability to return to Earth and obtain powerful weapons.
Compared to his life, keeping secrets was no longer a priority.
Moreover, it was only a smart gorilla.
