My transformation into a beautiful girl started with a hemorrhage.

Kouta guessed that Princess Christine was probably under some kind of enchantment spell.

Her cheeks had an unnatural flush, and her eyes were unfocused. She mistook the person shrouded in black mist for a hero and allowed him to freely take what he wanted from her.

Kouta's sudden appearance also startled the two who were engaged in a fierce battle.

Especially the mysterious figure shrouded in black mist around Christine, whose entire body visibly stiffened for a moment before slowly standing up and looking at Kouta.

Although Kouta couldn't see the other person's face clearly, he could tell that the other person was looking at him with murderous intent.

He could understand that; if someone suddenly barged in while he and Hui were doing that, he would probably be even angrier.

However, Kouta also felt wronged.

Who told you to do this in broad daylight... Wouldn't it have been better to do it in your room?

If you want excitement, then you have to accept the risk of being discovered.

"It's you?" Christine also saw Kouta and looked surprised.

Her face still flushed with spring, her eyes shy and bashful, she adopted the full posture of a young girl, then turned to look at the hero on her body, opening her small mouth affectionately, "Hero...who are you?!"

Her words came to an abrupt halt. One second her expression was tender and affectionate, the next it was one of utter horror. She roughly pushed away the black figure on top of her.

She quickly picked up the dress from the ground to cover herself, curled up, her face deathly pale as if she had been doused with ice water, trembling like a leaf, her eyes wide with terror as she stared at the black figure, shaking her head repeatedly.

The dark figure, Hume, disguised with magic, was startled by Kouta's sudden appearance, causing her charm magic to fail and allowing Princess Christine to regain her senses.

"Who are you? What did you do to me just now? Where is the hero? Where did you hide the hero?" Princess Christine could not accept that her virginity had been taken by such a stranger.

How she wished it were all a dream, but whether she admitted it or not, it was destined not to be a dream.

Chapter 511 On the Verge of Eruption

Hume felt a pang of pain in his heart when he saw the hatred in Princess Christine's eyes. He had obtained her body, and he should have been happy, but no, he was indeed happy, yet he was still unsatisfied, and his hatred only deepened.

The thought that her obedience, her initiative, her compliance, and her gentleness were all given to the brave rather than to him deepened his hatred and anger.

What exactly was "Hum" to her? Perhaps, just an insignificant nobody.

Thinking about this...

Snapped!

"You slut, is this how you talk to your master?" Hume suddenly realized the true nature of women and slapped Christine hard across the face.

This slap completely stunned Christine.

In her memory, she had been pampered since childhood and had never been slapped or even spoken to harshly.

The burning pain on her cheeks was bearable, but the humiliation in her heart brought tears to her eyes.

Snap! Snap! Snap, Snap, Snap, Snap...

“Cry! Cry again! Try crying again and see what happens!” Hume said, slapping her several more times, left cheek to right, over and over, showing no mercy.

Finally, Christine forced back her tears, refusing to cry any longer, and instead forced an awkward smile.

She... was scared.

Hume smiled disdainfully upon seeing this. "Hmph, woman."

"Hey, stop right there! Where do you think you're going?" Having dealt with Princess Christine, his gaze turned to Kouta, who was about to leave.

His voice was shrill, menacing, and terrifying, like the whisper of a devil, sending chills down one's spine.

This is actually a kind of magic called "body disguise," which can not only conceal one's appearance but also change one's voice.

Hume had no intention of letting Kouta, the culprit, off the hook.

This wretched fellow suddenly appeared just as he was about to reach the summit, scaring him so much that he fell into the abyss on the spot. How could he not hate such a deep grudge!

Kouta sighed and turned around innocently: "Sir, I was just passing by. Please continue. I didn't see anything."

However, Hume didn't want to waste words with Kouta.

"Die! Level 2 spell, [Finger of Corruption]!"

Lim began muttering a strange language, while his fingers traced a strange, glittering symbol in the air.

As he finished writing, the symbol transformed into a wisp of black smoke, which traversed the distance of several meters with ghostly speed and struck Kouta's chest with lightning speed. The entire process was silent, as if it were just an illusion.

"Hahaha~, you're dead! You've been hit by the [Finger of Corruption], and your body will soon turn into a puddle of pus." Rim was excited, finally getting rid of this despicable guy.

He could finally kill this guy.

but.

A second passed.

Two seconds passed.

Five seconds passed.

Ten seconds have passed...

The scene he had envisioned did not occur; Kouta remained standing there unharmed, completely unscathed.

[Twelve Trials] can ignore all attacks below level B. A mere level two spell is clearly not even above level B.

However, Hume was unaware of all of this.

His expression gradually shifted from confidence to shock and disbelief:

"How is this possible? This is a level two negative energy spell that can kill a Grand Knight! Why are you unharmed? It clearly hit you!"

He mentally questioned the Demon King: 'Hey, what's going on? Didn't you say this spell could even kill the Earth Knight? Why is this happening?'

The Demon King was also puzzled: 'This is strange, it shouldn't be like this.'

Before he could think further, he sensed something and quickly said, 'The hero is here! Use Shadow Stealth to get out of here!'

Upon hearing "The hero has arrived," Hume disregarded all magic and instantly transformed into a mass of blackness, merging into the shadow on the ground and disappearing from sight.

He just disappeared.

A commotion arose in the flowerbed ahead, and a person rushed over—it was none other than the brave warrior who had arrived—Shimogaki Seiichi.

One of his skills is called "Affection Link," which allows him to sense the status of women whose affection for him exceeds a certain limit.

He suddenly sensed Princess Christine's cries for help and rushed towards the direction he had sensed.

Actually, it was because Kouta used the [Symbol of Breaking the Laws of All Things] to break the barrier covering this place that the hero was able to sense Christine's condition.

When Shimogaki Seiichi arrived, he was taken aback when he saw Kouta. Then all his attention was focused on Christine, who was huddled up behind Kouta, barely clothed and crying.

In his previous life, he was already a high school student, so he naturally knew what those messy marks on Princess Christine's body represented.

His blood pressure suddenly spiked to its limit. He clenched his fists, glared at Kouta, his eyes bloodshot. For the first time since coming into this world, he had the urge to kill.

"Hero, wait for us! What brings you here all of a sudden?" A large group of nobles followed.

Upon seeing this, Shimogaki Seiichi flashed to Christine's side, a cloak appeared in his hand, and covered Christine's disheveled body.

"This is... Princess Christine?"

"Your Highness, what's wrong—"

Shh, don't speak!

After the initial commotion, the scene quieted down.

They were all from high society; they could easily see what Princess Christine had suffered.

This is a royal scandal!

Who dares to say it openly?

"Your Highness, it's alright, it's alright!" Shimogaki Seiichi quickly reassured Christine, fearing she might do something rash.

Christine simply buried her face in Seiichi Shimogaki's arms and sobbed, her voice filled with a poignant sorrow that moved everyone who heard it.

“Daughter, what exactly is going on?” King Middleton asked.

His voice was deep and resonant, like a volcano about to erupt.

To have their most beautiful daughter suffer such a thing, and to have it seen by so many people, has utterly disgraced the entire royal family of Altona!

He knew without a doubt that tomorrow, the Altona royal family would become a laughingstock across the entire continent.

He glared at Christine, his eyes silently questioning her why she didn't commit suicide to preserve the dignity of the royal family.

"It's alright, it's alright, Your Highness, I will protect you!" Shimogaki Seiichi continued to comfort the beautiful and delicate girl.

Christine's emotions gradually calmed down. In fact, her brain had been working at high speed since the beginning, trying to figure out how to break out of the current situation.

After much deliberation, all I can do is try to minimize the losses.

She knew her reputation was ruined.

This fact cannot be changed, but there is still room for maneuver in this matter.

Her goal is to become the hero's woman and enter the hero's harem; all her efforts are dedicated to this goal.

If she tells the truth that it was done by a mysterious person, but that mysterious person is so mysterious and unpredictable, even if she tells the hero, the hero is very likely to not be able to find him. This will leave the hero with a thorn in his side, like a fishbone stuck in his throat.

However, if it were someone else, like this commoner who just happened to appear.

Let him bear all of this, let him be killed by the hero.

The thorn in the hero's heart will disappear, and he will feel guilty about it and pity her even more, then her goal will be achieved.

Although this means she will have a lower status among the women around the hero, this tenderness is something the hero doesn't show to his other women, which turns a disadvantage into an advantage!

But the prerequisite for all of this is that the person who humiliated her must die!

'So, just go die!'

'Let your death preserve my innocence; perhaps such a death would be a kind of happiness for you.'

'A lowly person, rejoice! Your wretched life has played such a profound role.'

So, under everyone's watchful eyes, Christine raised her tear-reddened eyes, extended a trembling finger, and pointed at Kouta:

“It was him, he tricked me into coming here, and he… umm…” Christine started crying again halfway through her sentence.

"It's alright, it's alright!" Seiichi Shimogaki continued to comfort Christine.
