Although it is a bit shabby, this heroic spirit is super strong

She hoped she could at least do something in the end.

(If I'm lucky enough to survive, it would be nice to travel with that guy.)

Thinking of the agreement with Xiao, Crystal smiled somewhat dejectedly.

She now knew why Akatsuki was not in Nosti, and that she was no match for the undead.

"I'll trouble you with Nosti's people, Father... Marquis of Leicester."

Crystal said and rushed out of the room.

A lot of tentacles also emerged from the corridor outside the office.

They swayed aimlessly, waiting to attack any humans who approached.

Crystal took out a piece of crystal found in Crystal Valley and crushed it.

She stuffed the crystal powder into her mouth.

Crystal felt extremely nauseous and had a sharp stinging sensation in her throat.

But after jumping lightly, she found that her body was much lighter, and Crystal was still very satisfied.

She used magic to restrain the tentacles' movements and nimbly moved through the corridor to the second floor of the mansion.

In Paul's room, Crystal found a giant black ellipsoid.

It was exactly the same as the undead egg that Crystal had seen in the book.

As Crystal was about to destroy the eggs, she suddenly realized that the room was not protected by tentacles.

These tentacles were summoned by the undead through magic, and it is impossible for them not to protect their masters.

"Tsk!"

Crystal used her staff to block the attack from behind.

But the staff was broken directly, and a deep wound was left on her side.

"I should really thank that guy. I was able to take away so many crystals from the collection."

Crystal trembled as she crushed a gray-green crystal and sprinkled the powder on the wound.

The piercing pain made tears well up in her eyes and she almost cried out.

"Krystal, you're mine!"

Crystal rolled over with difficulty and avoided another attack.

Although her abdomen was still in severe pain, she was very glad that the bleeding had stopped successfully.

"Since you want me so much, just fight for me if you have the ability."

Crystal took out another crystal, injected magic power into it and threw it out.

An extremely strong light shot out from the crystal, illuminating every corner of the room.

"what!"

Taking advantage of Paul covering his eyes and screaming, Crystal jumped out of the window of the room.

"You are mine, you are not allowed to go anywhere!"

"Idiot, who are your things?"

Crystal struggled to crawl out from the bushes in the garden, muttering unhappily.

"Kristo!"

Paul's tentacles surged out of the window, flying wildly.

"If you want me so badly, come and catch me yourself if you can."

Crystal felt that such a simple provocation might be useless and recalled what Lucy had said.

"Or do you want to hide in your mother's arms and drink milk while making a fuss?"

Crystal suppressed her shame and cursed Paul.

"Krystal! You're going to regret this!"

Seeing that this provocation was very effective, Crystal silently thanked Lucy in her heart.

But a sudden explosion attracted Crystal's attention.

Fire appeared in the city not far away.

"What the... Tsk! What the hell is this?"

Suddenly, a black humanoid monster jumped out of the garden and knocked Crystal to the ground.

She hurriedly took out a red crystal and stuffed it into the monster's mouth.

"Explode!"

The black slime splashed all over Crystal, and her originally fair hands became red and swollen due to the high temperature burns.

"If I had known this earlier, I would have just been obedient and learned more fighting skills from Brother Ed."

Crystal looked at her own miserable appearance and laughed at herself.

Seeing Paul coming out of the mansion, she sat up with difficulty.

Chapter 38: The 'Hero' Must Save the Beauty at the Critical Moment

Crystal's original plan was to lure Paul to the training ground near the mansion.

If we stay there, the impact on the city center will be minimized by containing Paul.

But now it seems that she will never be able to reach the training ground.

Crystal felt her legs losing feeling and knew she could no longer stand up.

"Kristo! You are mine, and you are not allowed to go anywhere!

"Is that all you know?"

Crystal gave Paul a cold look and threw out a few white crystals.

A barrier emitting a faint white light enveloped her.

This is the barrier that Crystal created using all of her remaining magic power.

"Kristo!"

"Can you please stop calling me by my name, Master Paul? Men like you who are always pestering me are really annoying."

Crystal provoked Paul, trying to get his attention.

She knew it would be difficult for her to escape anyway, so she decided to keep Paul's attention for as long as possible.

"I won't let you hate me!"

Paul attacked the barrier angrily, causing Crystal to break out in a cold sweat.

"I'm sorry, but you're qualified?"

She tried not to pay attention to the crack in the barrier and continued to taunt Paul.

"I am the son of Duke Hobbes!"

"Aren't you just the son of Duke Hobbs? You'll be kicked out anyway when your brother inherits the family, right?"

Looking at the silvery-white fragments of the barrier, Crystal felt his heart tighten.

She knew that if she was hit directly by Paul's attack, there would be no chance of survival.

"How dare you humiliate me! You're clearly just a mere servant!"

"I have nothing to do with you, nor am I your servant."

"I'm going to make you pay!"

Paul roared and shattered the barrier, then used his tentacles to wrap up Crystal.

"You're angry because what I said doesn't make you... uh."

Before Crystal could finish her words, her neck was strangled harshly.

"Shut up! Shut up, shut up, shut up!"

【I guess I can only hold on here. 】

"Don't give up so quickly."

When Chris was about to lose consciousness, he heard the familiar voice.

Xiao hugged her body against that despicable guy whom she loved and hated.

"Ah! You, it's all your fault!"

"Okay, okay, it's all my fault. So what?"

Xiao looked at Paul with disdain and casually swung a blue fireball to knock him away.

"You guy, why did you come just now..."

Crystal complained weakly against Akatsuki's chest.

"I also need to find the right time to appear in this situation, right?"

Xiao was joking with Chris as usual.

"You bastard, you're not going to just hide around and watch me in such a mess, are you?"

"Of course not. I rushed back as fast as I could."

"You bastard... Ugh!"

Xiao held a bottle of medicine in his mouth and fed it to Crystal.

"Sorry for being late. Take a good rest, and leave the rest to me."

Xiao laid Crystal flat on the ground and gently pinched her blushing face.

The girl had not yet recovered from Xiao's actions.

"Xiao, be careful."

"You don't have to worry about me."

Xiao smiled and turned to Paul, who had struggled to crawl out of the rubble.

"Xiao! Die! Die!"

"Don't just shout, try it yourself."

Xiao had a smile on his face, but there was no trace of smile in his eyes.

He drew his sword, dealt with several sneak attacking monsters, and approached Paul step by step.

Paul, who was originally shouting arrogantly, suddenly fell silent.

He even began to retreat as if he was afraid of Akatsuki.

"So, who are you, you bastard?"

Xiao shouted at the evil spirit in a language that Crystal and Paul could not understand.

All he got was roars filled with fear and anger.

"You're a complete waste of time, you're just a complete idiot."

Akatsuki raised his sword and swung it down at Paul.

A silver-blue light enveloped in black rushed towards Paul, tearing the evil spirit that was parasitic on him into pieces.

Paul fell heavily to the ground and burst into tears.

He continued to threaten and curse Xiao and Crystal.

"Since you hate me so much, I won't show mercy."

"No, don't! Daddy! Mommy!"

"dawn!"
