"Since Ina has made her decision, I'll leave now."

"Well, if I oversleep tomorrow, Your Majesty, please wake me up. Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing."

Ina gave Ella a wry smile, and Ella smiled and nodded.

"Don't worry, I would have done it even if Ina hadn't told me."

"But it's incredible. Your Majesty didn't fight yesterday, yet he went from level 29 to 30. Is this a genius?"

"Ahahaha... maybe it's because I read too many magic books."

Ella turned her gaze to the side. In order to be able to use the "Flying" magic, she had secretly undergone special training last night. Although the process was boring, with Angelica and Shen Gan on duty to supervise her, she had no chance to slack off even if she wanted to. Therefore, it only took her one night to reach level 30.

In order not to continue discussing this topic, Ella quickly looked for an opportunity to slip away.

"Then I'll go back to the cabin and clean it up. It's an abandoned house after all, so there's a lot of dust."

"Your Majesty, the Demon King brought a maid with him, but he's cleaning it himself. Do you need my help?"

"No, no need. Ina will stay here. No matter what, we can't let Ina walk out into the snow wearing only a single layer of clothing. So, good night."

"I think it would be better if I could help... Good night, Your Majesty."

After smiling back at Ina, Ella lifted the curtain and jumped off the carriage, walking around to the wooden door in front of the house. Although the exterior of the wooden house was severely weathered, there were only a few leaky places inside except for a lot of dust. Overall, it was intact. The only drawback was that there were too few rooms. Even including the living room, there were only three rooms.

Naturally, Ella chose the living room. If she let others sleep in the living room while she lay in bed, she would feel guilty. Therefore, even though Camisia strongly objected, Ella still ordered Camisia to stop worrying about it. However, even so, the room still seemed crowded. Although the master bedroom could sleep three people, the guest room could only accommodate two people at most, so one more person had to be chosen to sleep in the living room.

It is also worth mentioning that when Ella and Ina were talking, Lotte and the other six were drawing lots in the room.

"I won! It's me and Ella-chan!"

Angelica's voice could be heard from the living room all the way outside the house, but this was actually good news for Ella. Although this was a bit selfish, she thought that if the person sleeping on the living room floor with her was Angelica or Shen Gan, it would be a relief in every sense.

Pushing the door open, Ella walked into the cabin. Everyone was gathered around the fireplace in the center of the living room, keeping warm. Angeline, cradling a wooden stick, smiled contentedly. The others—Lutee, Camisia, and Mitis—had varying degrees of disappointment on their faces. As for Iris and Shen Gan, the former's expression was unreadable, while the latter had no expression at all.

Ella pretended not to know the result.

"Is it over already?"

"It's over now. Little Ella is mine tonight, hehe."

Perhaps because she was in a good mood, Angeline closed one eye and gave Ella a playful expression.

"Don't use that weird expression."

Even though he knew that Angelina had no other intentions, he couldn't help but think in an ambiguous way.

"But how should we assign the rooms? Will Miss Mitis and Her Highness Iris share a room?"

"I, Iris and I are sharing a room?"

It was very obvious that Mitis's wings were retracted inward and she showed a timid expression. Just like a frog is afraid of a snake, Mitis had an innate fear of Iris for no reason.

"Ah, Mitis-chan seems to be afraid of me."

"Then, Iris, Princess, and I will sleep in the master bedroom, and Lady Ruthie and Lady Mitis will rest in the other room. Is that okay?"

Without asking for Iris's consent, Camisia looked directly at Shen Gan.

"I have no objection, but I would like to ask Teacher Camisia to separate me from Iris-senpai."

"Where is Sir Mitis?"

"Me? Being with Lotte... I do feel safe. I'm fine."

"If everything is fine, let's get ready. It's getting dark, so make your bed before you go to sleep. And temporarily plug any drafts with hay."

"""yes!"""

Under Camisia's command, everyone quickly started cleaning. By the time they finished cleaning, it was already after eight o'clock.

Chapter 28: Three Seconds of Destiny

*创世纪6188年1月8日 晚20:24分 尤利尔王国境内

The aroma of burning apple wood wafted through the quiet and dim living room. Perhaps it was a gift from God, but while cleaning the room, everyone discovered an abandoned storage room containing a lot of dry apple wood that could be used as firewood. As the stove burned, the entire wooden house became warmer.

Feeling hot, Ella twisted her body. Angelica, who was sleeping in the same quilt with her, was hugging her from behind. Under the dual temperature of the stove and Angelica, she had been sweating all over since a few minutes ago.

"This guy might be able to become the Holy Spirit of Fire. His body temperature is way too high."

If it were an ordinary person, he would definitely worry and think that the other person was having a fever, but Angelica has been like this since he knew her. Her body temperature is naturally much higher than others.

Ella twisted her body again, trying to break free from Angeline's octopus-like sleeping posture, but because she was worried about waking Angeline up, she couldn't move too much, so she failed to escape. Ella couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

"Even though I knew it would turn out like this... well, I should think on the bright side. At this point, I should say it's a good thing it's Angelina."

If it was Angelica, he wouldn't have any random thoughts. If it was Lotte or Camisia who used him as a pillow, he would have all sorts of wild thoughts and wouldn't be able to sleep the whole night. And if it was Angelica, even though she had developed far better than her peers—he could feel the soft touch of Angelica's breasts from behind—he wouldn't have any special feelings. If he had to say anything, he would just feel a little bit too happy.

Suddenly, Ella heard a strange sound, somewhat similar to the howling of evil spirits in the wilderness, but Ella understood that it was the sound of the cold wind blowing through the gaps in the wooden house. However, even though she knew the truth, she still couldn't help feeling scared. This was due to the primitive fear of human beings and had nothing to do with strength.

Ella couldn't help but feel lucky that Angelina was there, otherwise she would probably cover her head with the quilt. Of course, covering your head with the quilt has another fatal flaw, which is that when you want to lift the quilt and stick your head out to get some fresh air, you can't help but imagine the terrifying scene of ghosts and other things waiting for you outside the quilt.

Almost subconsciously, Ella hugged Angeline's arm tightly on her chest, closed her eyes, and tried to fall asleep. However, the more she wanted to fall asleep, the more difficult it was to fall asleep because of tension and anxiety. After a full twenty minutes, Ella still couldn't fall into the dazed state before falling asleep.

"Hmm."

Ella, who couldn't sleep, swallowed her saliva, slowly opened her eyes, and couldn't help looking at the window. Countless snowflakes were floating in the dark night, and the dead vines lying on the window under the faint light of the stove made Ella think of the shadow of a ghost. If she wasn't worried that the light magic would scare Angelina, Ella would probably summon the light magic to calm her heart that was beating so nervously.

Ella began to envy Shen Gan. With Camisia and Iris beside her, she must be sleeping peacefully. In fact, if she only considered the sense of security, she would be able to fall asleep quickly lying between Camisia and Iris. Of course, in reality, she had to consider other factors. At least for herself, she would never be able to sleep soundly between the two of them. It was just a thought just now.

In order to divert her attention, Ella began to think about other things.

"Come to think of it... the revenge Kuro mentioned should be today..."

For a moment, Ella even began to look forward to Kro's revenge coming soon. If someone could talk to her at this time, it would be the best tranquilizer.

【Ah, do you miss me this much? 】

Suddenly, Kro's voice echoed in my heart.

Ella's expression froze for a moment, and Kro did not give Ella time to react. He just clapped his hands in Ella's mind. Then, Ella felt as if her body was pulled by some kind of silk thread and moved uncontrollably. Ella was very familiar with this feeling. Just like when she was in the Kingdom of Kumheim before, it was a symbol that Kro was controlling the body.

【How could this be! 】

There is no doubt that without the Crown of Demistine, Kro theoretically cannot control his own body, but the fact is that Kro does have control of his own body.

Like a puppet, the arms stretched forward uncontrollably, and then without resistance, Ella - or to be more precise, Kro, opened the warehouse, took out the Crown of Mistin, and put it on her head without hesitation.

A white light flashed, and Ella changed from a girl of twelve or thirteen to a sixteen-year-old girl.

[This is a scam, right? Why can it even be used for storage?! ]

"After all, it's the power I've spent so long accumulating. Even though I can only control it for three seconds at most, it's enough to put on the Crown of Mistin—ah, what's the situation now?"

Chloe looked back at Angelica who was still hugging her from behind, and couldn't help but smile. She first took away Angelica's arm, and then reached out to Angelica with Ella's body.

【Hey, what do you want to do?】

While screaming in her heart, Ella tried to take back control of her body. It only took five seconds for her to take back control from Chloe.

"Huh? You want to take back control? I can't suppress Ella-chan and take back control, but how about this?"

Under Ella's gaze, Chloe, who was using Ella's body, placed her hands on her breasts and applied a slight pressure.

[Mmm——]

It was like an electric current running through her body, and Ella, who was trying to regain control, suddenly lost her strength. Although it was now Kro who was controlling the body, this did not prevent Ella from feeling the changes in her body. However, it must be said that in this state, Ella and Kro shared perception, so Kro could also feel the same feeling that Ella experienced.

As evidence, Kuro's body was trembling slightly, but she didn't relax her tone.

"How's it going? This is a first for my cute and shy little sister, right?"

「It’s just something like this, I already—Hey hey! 」

Without listening to Ella's answer, Kro got out of the quilt and took off the cute pajamas Ella was wearing. Then, she took out a nightgown from "F.Wing" from the storage, but with an extremely seductive style and put it on.

"It's better to find some fun than to be alone. Little Ella, be careful. If I lose focus because of your interference, it will cause an irreversible accident."

With a smile on her face, Kro walked straight towards Lotte and Mitis's room.

Chapter 29: Night Storm

*创世纪6188年1月8日 晚20:20分 尤利尔王国境内

Mitis tossed and turned in bed for a long time but couldn't fall asleep. Although winter was a season when she could fall asleep easily, the sound of the wind and the howling of evil spirits outside the window prevented her from sleeping. Mitis was sure that if there really were undead creatures like vengeful spirits causing trouble outside, she would definitely use "Gungnir" to judge them.

【Lotte should have fallen asleep.】

Looking at the girl with long purple hair lying next to her, Mitis couldn't help but show envy. If she could fall asleep as easily as humans, she would definitely shed tears of gratitude. Of course, there was another way for her to fall asleep quickly, which was to suck a drop of Ella's blood. But waking Ella up now was a bit inhumane - Ella should have fallen asleep, so she could only wait for sleep to come slowly.

However, just as Mitis closed her eyes, the wooden door suddenly made a slight creaking sound. This was definitely not a sound caused by the wind. Thinking of this, Mitis immediately stood up, but the scene that came into her eyes made Mitis almost drop her jaw to the ground.

Ella, who looked like a girl and was wearing a mature nightgown, was standing in front of the door. Her purple eyes reflected the light of desire. Her appearance even reminded Mitis of the crazy look of low-level vampires when they suddenly saw humans after not consuming blood for a long time.

"Ella?"

In an inaudible voice, Mitis tilted her head and looked at Ella, but Ella did not answer Mitis's question. She just slowly approached Mitis step by step.

"What's wrong? You look weird."

"I'm here to eat Mitis."

"Eh?"

The sudden topic made Mitis a little confused, but when she saw Ella licking her lips, her heart couldn't help but imagine something ambiguous. However, because of her reserve, she didn't lose her composure immediately. Instead, she looked at Ruthie who was still sleeping, and then shifted her gaze to the floor.

"Lotte is still here... You're actually..."

"But Mitis can't sleep either, right? I originally wanted to wake her up first, but now it seems there's no need."

"It's true that I can't sleep, but what should Ella do?"

As soon as Mitis finished speaking, Ella, wearing a crown on her head, sat down next to Mitis.

The distance where they could smell each other made Mitis feel a little embarrassed, especially the mysterious aura of the demon king on Ella. Mitis, who was already half a demon, even felt that no matter what Ella said, she would agree.

"Let's do something that Mitis expects."

The words were full of teasing. In order to prevent Mitis from running away, Ella, who was sitting at the head of Mitis's bed, first put one hand around Mitis's back, and then used her free hand to lift Mitis's chin, so that Mitis could not take her eyes off herself.

Generally speaking, the action of fingers sliding from the neck to the chin would only make people feel itchy or contemptuous, but at this moment, Mitis only felt a tingling sensation. The psychological state of submission to the devil mixed with the usual hidden love, turning into an indescribable emotion, like falling into a dream. The floating trance made people unable to help but indulge in it. For a moment, Mitis couldn't help but feel that even if Ella whipped herself with a whip, she would not feel any pain.

Beads of sweat began to appear on Mitis's forehead.

"I'm looking forward to it..."

"Yes, it's just what Mitis imagined. It's forbidden, fantastical, irresistible, and addictive."

The voice was like the devil's whisper, but Mitis felt that even if the devil was luring her into the abyss, she was completely willing. Every cell in her body was moaning, her pores opened due to the surging heat, and her hands were tightly grasping the sheets. The feeling of dry mouth made Mitis swallow, but her eyes could not move away from Ella's lips.

But Luty's presence prevented Mitis from falling into depravity. She gathered the remaining sanity in her body, raised her bright purple eyes, and asked in a trembling voice.

"This... the consequences of doing this... you should be aware of them, right? And the first time was in a cabin in the wild... with people around—huh?!"

Before Mitis could finish her words, Ella laid Mitis down on the bed, one hand supporting Mitis's head, the other hand pressing down Mitis's hand, her whole body supporting herself on top of Mitis, her eyes wandering over Mitis's neck and face. Under this unconcealed aggressive gaze, Mitis finally couldn't help her inner shyness and turned her face away, but at the same time, Mitis also understood that she had completely lost, like a lamb bitten by a wolf, she could do nothing but let Ella control her. Her long eyelashes were wet with tears, and she closed her eyes trembling with fear and anticipation, waiting for Ella's next invasion.

However, Ella did not respond to Mitis directly. Instead, she put her lips close to Mitis's ear and continued to speak ambiguous words.

"Does Mitis prefer a more entangled approach, or do you prefer something more direct? As for me, either way will satisfy Mitis, you know?"

“I…I…”

Mitis wanted to pull the quilt over her head, but Ella did not allow her to do so. Forced, Mitis could only answer in a mosquito-like voice.

"As long as Ella likes it... I like it..."

After saying this, Mitis's brain instantly crashed, and her face, which was red enough to bleed, became even more seductive. It was certain that no matter who came, they would be unable to control themselves because of Mitis's bewitching performance.

But Ella is an exception now.

Ella blew gently into Mitis's ear.

"Really? Then be gentle."

"Um……"

"But we need to make some preparations first."

Ella got up from the bed and gave Mitis her own space. Although Mitis had never experienced anything like this, as a noble, she had heard of similar things from books or from the words of people around her. With anticipation, she sat up, lowered her head, and nervously unbuttoned her pajamas.
