My transformation into a beautiful girl started with a hemorrhage.

"Your Highness!!"

Behind the boy, the black-clad bodyguard with sunglasses and a cold expression suddenly shielded Prince Hisahito behind him.

His name is Kento Yuzuki, and he is Prince Hisahito's personal bodyguard.

At this moment, Yuzuki Kento's back was covered in cold sweat, and he stared at Kei with a look of horror.

'When? I only just realized it now…'

'And... this feeling... this feeling of certain death... how long has it been since I felt this way?'

'This feeling... what kind of monster is this?!'

As a bodyguard, he was very vigilant. From the moment Hui appeared, he secretly observed her every move and concluded that Hui was just a pretty young girl.

But just now, he realized how terribly wrong he was!

After Hui finished speaking, she waited for the other party to reveal their true colors. She was in a good mood today, and she didn't want to see blood on her birthday, so she had been playing along with Prince Hisahito until now.

Hui was determined that the other party would not let her go so easily. Despite the other party's seemingly humble and polite demeanor along the way, this kind of noble young master would not be satisfied until he got what he wanted.

At this moment, Hui was already prepared to draw blood.

The internal energy within his body began to flow into the samurai sword through his palm.

Normally, given the mastery of true qi by innate martial artists, this process would be carried out completely silently, without even a trace of killing intent being revealed.

Unfortunately, the material of this knife is too poor; it's just ordinary iron that doesn't contain a single speck of meteorite iron, and it has many fine lines that are invisible to the naked eye, which are probably damage left from previous battles.

Therefore, this caused a slight leakage of the true energy that Hui had poured into it.

The leaked true energy, carrying the astonishing killing intent of the Heavenly Blade Battle Technique, was revealed.

Even so.

Aside from a few exceptionally gifted individuals who constantly teeter on the brink of life and death, ordinary people simply cannot perceive anything.

For example, Prince Hisahito, the National Security Bureau officials, and these maids felt nothing and had no idea that an invisible knife was already at their throats.

But some people did sense it.

That person was Prince Hisahito's personal bodyguard—Kento Yuzuki.

As an international mercenary, he shed blood in Afghanistan and tears in Africa, and experienced hundreds of battles, large and small. He may not be the strongest, but he is definitely the most capable of surviving.

All of this can be attributed to his extraordinary sense of danger since childhood!

Relying on this completely unscientific intuition, he has avoided countless deadly dangers.

However, at this moment, the feeling of escaping death countless times almost drove him to the brink of collapse.

He was like an earthworm that had always lived in darkness, which had grown eyes that could sense light, but the object of his gaze was the sun, which was right in front of him.

At that moment, Yuzuki Kento felt his blood boiling, his heart pounding wildly in his chest as if it were about to take flight. He could hear his arteries pounding in his temples like two hammers, and the breaths he exhaled sounded like the wind blowing from a cave. His mind was spinning, and he heard shrill and ghostly sounds. Looking at Kei, he felt as if he were witnessing an unspeakable horror.

"Yuki-sama? What are you doing?" Prince Hisahito asked with displeasure.

However, Kento Yuzuki was his father's current bodyguard, assigned to him by his father, the Emperor, so he couldn't directly reprimand him.

Prince Hisahito never expected that Yuzuki Kento, who always had a cold face and was stingy with every word, would be so panicked and neurotic.

He couldn't understand why Yuki suddenly stood between him and Hui, and was looking at Hui as if she were facing a formidable enemy.

This is... insane!

"Hmm? You...can feel it?"

Hui looked at Yuzuki Kento with surprise. She had always considered him an ant.

'With this level of perception, this guy seems to be exceptionally gifted.'

'If this were in the Xia Dynasty, he would be considered a grandmaster, perhaps even a potential innate being.'

'Unfortunately, born into a scientific world devoid of high-energy factors, my talents cannot be fully utilized; I can only become a watchdog for the powerful.'

Yuzuki Kento's forehead veins were bulging, cold sweat streamed down his cheeks and chin, his nerves were on edge, and one hand was already on the pistol in his belt.

but,

But he didn't move an inch!

because,

A voice screamed in his head, "Don't move! Don't move! Otherwise... you'll die! You'll die! You'll die! You'll die...!!!"

'Mere ants, daring to look up at the sky.'

Hui snorted coldly, then her beautiful eyes narrowed, and she directly pressed down on him with the killing intent of a Xiantian martial artist without any concealment.

Suddenly,

The surrounding air grew colder, and within the invisible air, true energy carrying killing intent began to condense...

Hui originally thought that if she were to draw her sword and kill people, given her ability to crack her voice in a second, it would take her a second to kill them.

But then Hui realized that these people were too weak, so fragile that they would die with the slightest exertion. She didn't need to actually fight; she could simply infuse her killing intent into her true energy, and the true energy would immediately transform into blades, turning the surrounding area into a death trap.

If a martial artist possesses internal energy, their protective internal energy can withstand attacks of this magnitude. Even if their internal energy is weak, they can still escape using their movement techniques.

but,

This kind of attack, which Hui considers not an attack, and which an inner energy martial artist can handle, is a completely unsolvable killing formation in front of ordinary people in this world, with no chance of survival and certain death!

Therefore, Hui Cai suddenly realized that killing fourteen ordinary people didn't even take a second, only... a moment!

In the empty air, something sharp seemed to be brewing, subtly distorting the light, as if with just a little more effort, it could take shape and materialize in this world.

All of this requires only a single thought from Hui.

Now, Hui is just waiting for Prince Hisahito to "reveal his true colors".

Completely unaware of the danger, Prince Hisahito listened to Kei's disrespectful behavior in front of so many people, yet he seemed unperturbed and said gently, "Of course, if it's Miss Myagi, then I will certainly give way to her."

"So, we're going to... eh~!?"

Hui froze, her head not turning around. The blade that had been half-condensed in the air instantly disintegrated, and the solemn oppressive feeling vanished.

"What did you say?"

“I said, Miss Wife, you can leave now.”

"Really?"

"What I said is absolutely true!"

"You wouldn't have called someone after I'd only taken a few steps—"

"Stop!" Prince Hisahito said, seemingly annoyed. "I am the Emperor's son, and I would never stoop to such a thing."

Hui stared at Prince Yu Ren with suspicion, especially when he seemed to be letting her leave; her beautiful eyes were full of doubt.

'Shouldn't he have started forcing himself by now, given the normal course of events?'

'As for leaving it for next time?'

'Are you kidding me? Do you think men have any self-control? Can they really resist having a beautiful woman right in front of them?'

She couldn't quite understand this prince.

Chapter 298 Life

Hui looked closely at Yu Ren and realized that he really didn't mean to lie to her, so she stopped the imminent massacre.

After all, he wasn't some kind of serial killer.

She sheathed the drawn katana again, the blade scraping against the iron scabbard with a hissing sound. Hui then placed the katana back on the sword rack on the wall.

"Then, Sayonara!"

After politely saying goodbye, Hui walked past Prince Hisahito with light steps without hesitation, leaving behind a faint fragrance that Prince Hisahito couldn't help but inhale a few more times.

Hui smelled wonderful, unlike any of the other noble ladies he had ever encountered. It was a scent that penetrated to the core, a comfort that seemed to come from the very soul.

At this moment, Hisahito began to regret his decision.

If he wished, he could keep this fragrance with him forever.

However, he ultimately did not do that.

After all, he wanted more than just Hui's body; he wanted her heart as well.

The process of pursuing something from nothing is also a kind of enjoyment; if you force it directly, you will only reduce many of its wonderful aspects.

Yujin paused for a few seconds on Hui's back before turning his gaze away and walking forward, followed by the maids behind him.

At this moment, Hisahito probably never imagined that he had inadvertently averted his own demise and also saved the lives of everyone in the manor, young and old!

The group continued on their way, except for Kento Yuzuki, who remained motionless in place.

Seeing that he didn't move, the middle-aged man, a high-ranking official from the National Security Bureau, asked curiously, "Sir, what's wrong?"

He and Kento Yuzuki weren't friends or colleagues; they were just fellow travelers on a mission.

He was an official sent by the Japanese government to protect Prince Hisahito, while Yuzuki Kento was a bodyguard appointed by the Japanese Imperial Family. They only had a common mission and had no other interaction.

"Didn't you feel it?"

The fact that the usually taciturn Kento Yuzuki actually answered surprised the high-ranking official from the National Security Bureau, as he was usually ignored when he tried to talk to this guy.

"What did you feel?" he asked, his face full of confusion.

Did something just happen?

Isn't it just that Prince Hisahito ran into a rejection while trying to woo that stunningly beautiful girl?

What can you sense from this?

Is His Highness heartbroken over a failed romance?

What about the lost youth of us old folks?

Or... the stunning beauty of that little beauty from earlier?

The middle-aged man, a high-ranking official from the National Security Bureau, glanced at Yuzuki Kento with a puzzled look, then followed Prince Hisahito ahead.

After he left.
