Before the monster could react, it was trampled under Rem's foot, its body exploded, and its head shattered. She didn't care about the blood splattering, and swung the iron ball in her hand again, causing a large amount of blood and monster corpses to appear.

"Warcraft! Warcraft! Warcraft—!"

Rem laughed wildly, shouted loudly, and swung the iron ball, slaughtering monsters.

Splattered blood, shattered skulls, intestines and brain matter... were spread across the ground.

Rem lost her rationality, her mind consumed by murderous intent, her thoughts consumed only by slaughter, slaughtering the monsters around her.

Just like her appearance now, a ghost.

Shi Chen looked her over from behind and realized that she really couldn't control the power of the ghost.

However, she wasn't indiscriminate in distinguishing friend from foe; she didn't attack him, but she also didn't recognize him.

When Rem turned around and looked at him, Toki realized that she seemed not to recognize him.

Judging from her appearance, she probably only recognizes her sister, Ram.

I still need to work harder. I don't intend to surpass Ram's importance in Rem's heart; keeping the same level is enough.

He remembered that striking the beautiful white horn on her forehead would bring her back to consciousness, but there was no rush. There was no danger now; let her release it one more time.

Despite Rem's indiscriminate slaughter, the number of monsters has not decreased but has instead increased. The culprit must be dealt with.

For example, the little monster hiding behind the monster horde, or—the little girl in his arms.

Just as he was about to stop making a choice and try to resolve everything, he suddenly sensed a familiar presence.

Soon, the aura drew closer, revealing its true form.

"Ram?" Shichen looked at Ram in surprise.

"Time... What's going on here?" Ram asked from afar, his gaze fixed on Rem, who had gone mad, his expression grave.

"There's a sorcerer in the village who wants to cast a curse on the villagers. The protective barrier has also been broken. What if monsters invade the village...?"

The time was not fully explained, but Ram already understood what he meant; this concerned Emilia and Rotswaal's reputation.

The village belongs to the territory of the Border Count of Rotswal. If anything happens to the villagers, Rotswal will certainly be held accountable, as will Emilia, whom he supports.

It will affect the candidates for king.

Chapter 495 Taking Action to Resolve the Issue

“Rem…”

Although it concerns Roswaal and Emilia, Ram is currently focusing his attention on Rem.

She knew that if her sister turned into a demon, she would lose her mind.

Moreover, the scene of corpses scattered all around, and the body smashed by the iron ball, could only have been made by the younger sister.

What happened?

"Lamu, it's dangerous over there, come over here first." Shichen waved to Lamu.

“I don’t think it’s safer where you are than here…and I can’t get there.”

"Leave it to me, relax." Shi Chen said, snapping his fingers.

"Eh?"

Ram suddenly realized that she could no longer control her body. She began to float up and drift towards the hour, as if she were being lifted up, her body arched and her buttocks sticking out.

Ram quickly floated over the horde of monsters and landed next to Shichen, who grabbed her by the back of her collar and then put her on the ground to stand firmly.

"...What did you do?" Ram came to her senses and glared at him angrily.

"I'll bring you over here." Shi Chen smiled.

"How did you do that? I didn't sense any wind magic..."

"I can do what I want to do. I'm pretty good at it."

"Really? Then why did you let Rem become like this?" Ram's tone was accusatory.

"Don't worry, I've been watching Rem the whole time. I won't let her get hurt... Although she lost her mind, at least she released a lot of pressure," Shichen explained.

"To relieve stress?"

"As the older sister, you should know what Rem is feeling, right?"

“I guessed a little bit… Rem didn’t want to tell me, but she’s cared about me so much all this time.” Ram looked at Rem, who was laughing maniacally, her expression indescribable, her eyes filled with conflict.

"But you're her older sister."

“That shouldn’t have been done.” Ram shook his head.

"Don't worry, I'll free her. I care about her more than you do." Shichen looked at Rem, who was still going crazy, with pity in his eyes.

"More concerned than me...?"

"Don't you have someone you care about more now?" Shi Chen said bluntly.

“You’re right.” Ram didn’t deny it, but what she was more concerned about now was Rotswald.

“No wonder Lord Rotswald said we shouldn’t offend you; how come you know so much?” Ram replied helplessly.

"Oh? That guy seems to know a little about my situation. But it doesn't matter. As long as he doesn't cause any trouble, I'll help him fulfill his wish."

“I understand... I will tell Lord Rotswald,” Ram nodded in response.

"Ah."

Shichen said no more and looked at Rem again. All the monsters were attacking her. He didn't know if it was because she had killed too many monsters and attracted their hatred, or if the little monsters saw her as the biggest threat and wanted to get rid of her first.

But it was no use; the little monster's magical attacks were blocked by the barrier of time, and the monster horde couldn't do anything to Rem.

She doesn't even feel tired.

The demon form is indeed very powerful, but she can't fully control it, otherwise it would be even more powerful.

Wait, does being able to control it count as whitewashing? Won't it make me weaker?

Forget it, it doesn't matter.

"Can time restore Rem's sanity?" Ram suddenly asked.

"It's not impossible, but how do we do it?" Shi Chen asked, pretending not to understand.

"Just hit her horns."

"Horns... alright, that's about enough. Let's deal with all these monsters first," Shi Chen said casually.

"So many magical beasts... how do we deal with them?" Ram frowned, looking at the still enormous number of magical beasts, and asked.

"Didn't I tell you? I'm very capable." Shi Chen said, raising his hand, and a breeze began to flow.

Ram sensed it; it was wind, growing stronger and more powerful.

A whooshing sound arose, the jungle branches and leaves rustled, and dust began to fly, followed by still-wet blood and the carcasses of monsters, and then the horde of monsters surrounding them.

They were as light as feathers, floating up in the air, struggling and howling, but to no avail. They were swept up by the storm, carried into the sky, and then turned into a blood mist with a bang.

The vast number of magical beasts were wiped out in an instant, leaving only the little beast that led the pack.

Rem, who had been swung the iron ball wildly, was stunned. She tilted her head and looked up at the sky, frozen in place.

They're actually quite adorable.

"You're the only one left." Shi Chen looked at the little monster with a kind smile, then threw a ball of golden flame at it.

"Roar--"

The little monster instinctively felt fear, let out a low growl, and turned to run away, but the golden flames seemed to be aware of their own existence, relentlessly pursuing it, getting closer and closer until they enveloped it.

Before it could even scream, the little monster was burned to ashes, leaving not a trace.

"You...?" Ram stared wide-eyed at Shichen in disbelief.

So many magical beasts were wiped out in the blink of an eye. That wind magic, which was much stronger than hers, was at least on par with Lord Roswaal!

No, considering Lord Rothwaal's warning, it must be even stronger.

And that terrifying golden flame—who exactly is he?

So powerful, no wonder Lord Rothswald needed his help.

Shichen ignored Ram, handed the little girl in his hand to her, and slowly walked towards Rem.

Rem was still in a daze, staring at the empty sky.

"Rem." Tokishi called softly as he approached Rem.

Rem still responded to her own name. She lowered her head and looked at the time, her eyes filled with madness, yet also with confusion.

"You silly little thing."

Shi Chen looked at her like this and couldn't help but laugh. Then he reached out and flicked her long white jade horn.

Ding--

Like the sound of white jade colliding, a great white light shone brightly, and then, the white horns on Rem's head seemed to shrink back shyly.

"Well......"

Rem, as if she had lost all her strength, weakly collapsed into Toki's arms.

Shi Chen gently caught her, held her in his arms, and began to treat her.

"Don't worry, Rem is fine." Ram approached, holding the little girl.

"I'm worried." Shichen continued to treat Rem, replenishing her strength and life force until she opened her eyes and regained consciousness.

"Time...?"

"It's me," Shi Chen nodded with a smile.

"Why...why is my sister here too?" Rem noticed Ram.

"Rem, are you alright?" Ram asked worriedly.

"I...I feel surprisingly good." Rem sensed her body and blinked in surprise.

"Of course, with me here, you can't be like that again." Shichen released Rem, letting her stand up on her own.
