Chapter 2: New Century (Epilogue)
Chapter 182: Heart Puppet Curse Lifted (1)
On the other side of the teleportation array, Ginny May carefully discerns the aura within the array. There is no smell of blood. The young succubus looks impatient and charges in after a slight pause.
Perhaps she is already enjoying a delicious Vital Energy feast!
Ginny May is still uneasy.
She throws another young succubus, who is overjoyed and grateful, into the array. Still, there is no movement. It is clear that the other side of the array is very safe.
“Did this smelly bitch suddenly develop a conscience? But don’t think this can offset my hatred!”
Ginny May snorts coldly.
Every succubus is a top-tier manipulative villain, most adept at putting up a front while acting differently behind closed doors. For now, they will pretend to let bygones be bygones and go over to greedily absorb the Vital Energy first.
With this thought.
Ginny May roughly pushes aside the eager young succubi crowding in front of the teleportation array and enters first.
As she passes through the array, she even tries to shut it down, knowing that the more succubi that enter, the less Vital Energy there is to share. But she fails.
She is just a weakling.
The Abyssal Dem within her is very limited, only slightly more than those novice succubi, as she has not been sustained for a long time.
With an excited heart and trembling hands, she passes through the teleportation gate, only to be met with a swift slap.
“Bitch, I’ve finally been waiting for you!”
Elizabeth abandons the gentle and delicate demeanor she had when facing Xi Wei.
Now, her body is filled with Abyssal Dem due to absorbing plenty of vital essence and blood. She is brimming with strength, enough to take on ten Ginny Mays.
“So you’re the only one smart enough to send out young succubi to scout, huh? You think you’re so clever?”
Elizabeth pinches Ginny May’s mouth, preventing her from making a sound or struggling.
These slaps were delivered with full Dem power, not holding back, leaving Ginny May dizzy and disoriented, unable to tell east from west.
“Master, this is that old succubus. If you use her heart to treat the Heart Puppet curse, the effect will be absolutely excellent. If it doesn’t heal, I am willing to be roasted by the Abyssal Demon Flame and turned to ashes.”
Elizabeth is going all out.
To kill her old rival, she directly makes a solemn vow.
At this moment, succubi begin to emerge from the teleportation array one after another, scrambling to get through.
However, what awaits them are the merciless hands and cruel clubs of the Winter Fort guards.
When the number of emerging succubi reaches ten, the energy of the teleportation array is completely depleted and it collapses.
“Leave the heart extraction to me.”
Xi Wei stands up, draws a short knife from the waist of a nearby guard, and throws it with a “clang” in front of Elizabeth.
“I am going to prepare for the lifting of the Heart Puppet curse. Once the succubus heart is removed, come to the front hall of the castle to find me immediately.”
With that, Xi Wei orders the guards to take the succubus to the dungeons for temporary confinement and then strides out of his room.
As for the messy floor and room, specialized maids will clean them later; it’s not his concern.
Elizabeth respectfully complies and then picks up the short knife from the ground, a seductive smile on her face. She pulls Ginny May’s hair, hoisting Ginny May’s upper body as if she were a chicken.
“You… you actually colluded with humans… You, you traitor! His Majesty Felton will not let you go…”
Ginny May, spitting blood, her eyes filled with hatred and fear.
“Felton? What kind of nonsense is Felton? Everything he has now belongs to His Majesty the King of Winter…”
Elizabeth covers her mouth and giggles, completely unconcerned by Ginny May’s threat.
“Besides, you are about to die, my dear sister.”
“No… please, please spare me… I’ll do anything… anything…”
“Oh, alright~”
Elizabeth sneers, and with a “swish,” the short knife ruthlessly plunges into Ginny May’s chest.
…
“How should I best utilize these succubi?”
Xi Wei walks along, constantly pondering in his mind.
Succubi cannot be used as direct combat forces; they can only serve as spies. However, if used wisely, they can also help him earn a lot of money.
He, the King of Winter, is short on money!
Star Magus are already so expensive now.
If even higher-level troops appear in the future, he won’t be able to afford them!
His reserves must be built up slowly.
With money in hand, he won’t panic~
“Perhaps open a brothel? Or a nightclub?”
“Let’s bring out a batch of hostesses to promote the economic development of Winter City?”
“Opening a casino would definitely be a business boom. Then these casinos can be exclusively for merchants from other countries, and I’ll make a fortune~”
“Why not combine them all? That way, it’s a one-stop service, and those merchants and nobles will surely be unable to resist paying!”
Professional matters should be handled by professionals. Xi Wei plans to write a letter to the Scheming Frog of Most City after he deals with Sakura’s matter.
For entertainment, it’s best to rely on the Scheming Frog.
Coincidentally, the Scheming Frog itself has the idea of building Most City into the entertainment center of the Winter Kingdom.
Walking and thinking, Xi Wei unknowingly arrives near Sakura’s room.
Before, he didn’t dare to approach carelessly, unsure of Sakura’s condition.
Now that he has a clear understanding, it’s time to have a heart-to-heart with this Demi-human princess.
The room door is unlocked.
Xi Wei pushes it open directly.
The room is very dim.
Thick curtains completely block out the sunlight from outside.
Coupled with the secluded location of the room, it looks like a room at night.
Only the furnishings within can be vaguely seen.
Xi Wei sniffs, but doesn’t smell anything unpleasant.
It seems that even though this Demi-human princess ate with her hands under the control of the Heart Puppet curse, she cleaned herself thoroughly afterward.
“Who’s there?”
From a corner of the room, a girl’s weak voice is heard.
Xi Wei follows the sound and sees a small figure cowering in the corner, curled into a ball.
If he weren’t a Champion Knight with sharp eyes, he might have mistaken this shapeless mass for a small footstool made by a goblin.
“I am the King of Winter.”
Xi Wei tries to make his voice as gentle as possible to avoid startling the Demi-human princess, who has been tormented physically and mentally. At the same time, he enters the room and approaches the bed, gently turning on the magic lamp on the bedside table.
He does not turn on the crystal chandelier overhead.
Sudden bright light might cause the girl to fall into unease and fear; at this time, darkness is her true protection.
“You… you are the King of Winter?”
Sakura’s voice trembles slightly, carrying a hint of expectation, but more of panic and fear. She is afraid her curse will spread to the King of Winter.
Under the faint light of the magic lamp, Xi Wei observes the girl huddled in the corner, helplessly hugging her knees, trembling all over, her face streaked with tears.
He nods gently.
“Don’t be nervous. I know you have a curse, and I’ve found a way to solve it.”
