The villain daughter did all kinds of things

Barbara immediately made this judgment, then tossed the crystal in her hand into the air and caught it again:

"How exactly do you use this thing?"

"Just eat it directly... or absorb it in any other way you prefer."

Amelie smiled, then hesitated for a moment before asking:

"If you were given life again after death, would you prefer to continue having the same body as you do now, or would you prefer an artificial body like a magical doll?"

"Of course I'll use my own body if I can!"

Barbara answered almost without hesitation.

"Then leave me some more of your blood."

Emery thought for a moment and said:

"That way, you'll have a higher chance of retaining your body after you die."

"Row."

Having made her decision, Barbara readily agreed.

She first tilted her head back, opened her mouth, and swallowed the crystal like a candy bean. Then, she condensed magic into a blade and cut her wrist, causing a lot of blood to flow.

Is this enough blood?

"Enough, enough..."

Emerald then lightly flicked her fingers, first using a sealing spell to collect Barbara's blood, and then incidentally healing the wound on Barbara's wrist.

"That's it for now then."

Barbara remained as straightforward and even somewhat impatient as ever. After agreeing to help Emerald and receiving payment, she left immediately.

Emerald watched Barbara disappear into the ground as if sinking into water before taking out her communication device to contact Cynthia:

"My plan has succeeded, Auntie. We can start now."

"This time, it's that old hag Mondoly's turn to be disgraced and die."

Chapter 220 Confession Duel!

Cynthia was even more eager than Emerald to take revenge on Mondorie, and now that the opportunity had finally arrived, she naturally began to act according to her plan immediately.

However, an old witch like Mondoly who has lived for hundreds of years is still quite difficult to kill. It's not worth it to kill her by force, and who knows what desperate measures she might take.

So Emerald's plan this time is to slowly weaken Mondorie by gradually bleeding her down, and then kill her completely.

This is not something that can be done in a short time. The plan will need several days to develop before it can be implemented. You can't rush it.

After ending her communication with Cynthia, Emerald quickly returned to her office and began issuing various orders to the entire city of Locke.

Having repelled the level 5 demonic tide and successfully broken through, Yulia's success is undoubtedly a cause for celebration.

Amelie immediately ordered a celebration. She not only hosted a ball at the city's most upscale hotel to entertain all the celebrities of Locke City, but also booked more than 80% of the city's street restaurants so that all the residents of the city could have a good meal that night.

This is a considerable expense, but Emery will not lose money; soon she will have all the wealth of the entire art association in her pocket.

With the concerted efforts of everyone in the city, the damage caused by Mondoly's reckless attack in her attempt to escape was quickly and temporarily resolved.

All the innocent bystanders affected were rescued and treated. Those who had temporarily lost their homes were also provided with places to stay for the night. Tomorrow, a group of skilled civil engineering and construction magic experts will be hired to rebuild the houses, and their lives will be able to return to normal.

Although there were some twists and turns and unexpected events, fortunately no one actually died, which is the first time in the record of fighting against a level 5 demonic tide. Emery's holy shield can be said to have played a crucial role.

Amelie didn't try to hide anything during the battle; anyone with a discerning eye could see that the holy magical shield covering the entire city came from the [Heavenly Winged Saintess].

Such powerful equipment naturally attracted the attention of many people. For example, Judy approached Emery immediately after the war to ask if she would sell such equipment.

Amelie neither agreed nor refused, but just smiled and counted the cost price of the [Heavenly Winged Saintess] on her fingers for Judy, which made Judy's face turn pale.

That number made even Judy, the daughter of a general, feel like a poor girl.

The Federation military is reluctant to spend money to sell even magical warships, and would rather get them for free than give up actual control of them, let alone such an exorbitantly priced magical artifact for individual use.

Even if the federal military could grit their teeth and buy a set, it wouldn't be Judy's turn to use it, so Judy wisely didn't ask any more questions.

That evening, the residents of Locke City enjoyed drinks and food at their familiar street-side restaurants, celebrating their great victory in the fight against the level 5 demonic tide.

The upscale banquet at the Velen Hotel, the most luxurious hotel in Locke City, was also a success. Many elegantly dressed gentlemen and ladies mingled and chatted, but the focus of the entire banquet was, of course, Amelie and Julia.

Not only did they demonstrate their strength in the daytime battles, but they also looked radiant and charming in their gorgeous evening gowns, captivating anyone who glanced at them, regardless of gender.

But no one dared to make a move on them; they were each other's companions at the dinner party, and everyone else could only smile and offer their blessings, constantly uttering flattering words.

In such situations, Emery naturally handled herself with ease, having experienced countless similar situations throughout her life.

However, it had only been two years since Yulia rose from a commoner to a member of high society, and given her somewhat carefree personality, she was still not quite used to many of the details of etiquette.

At this dinner party, Yulia seemed very excited. She not only drank a lot of wine, but also ate heartily at the food. Some of her behaviors were actually quite impolite.

If Yulia were just an ordinary girl, her behavior at the banquet would certainly have drawn scorn and ridicule from the gentlemen and ladies, who would have called her a country bumpkin and a hick.

But that's no longer the case now, because Julia is not only Emery's almost officially announced girlfriend, but she also proved to everyone that she is a true Fusion Stage powerhouse by personally killing a level 5 Demon Tide Nest Lord.

Therefore, no matter what Yulia does, no one will say she is impolite. In fact, everyone will rack their brains to explain for her, saying that her behavior is the truly elegant thing to do, and that any behavior different from hers is impolite.

This included most of the school leaders from Julia's school days, officials from Locke City, and several big businessmen. Their careful and ingratiating manner around Julia made Amelie chuckle softly many times.

Clearly, trying to impress others with formal attire often only leads to humiliation; true respect can only be earned through ability.

. . . . .

As the banquet was nearing its end, Emerald lost her patience.

She left all the cleanup work after the banquet to Marcy, while she herself took Julia, who was already full, had a great time, and was a little drunk, and left first.

Tonight, Emerald hadn't planned to do anything special. She intended to take Julia back to her room and then get down to business—such as where Mondoly might be hiding, the progress of the plan, and preparations to sue the Arts Association in federal court with the military, etc.

Just as Amelie was about to leave Julia's room, Julia suddenly grabbed her hand, stared intently at her, her slightly drunken eyes moist, and she seemed to have made up her mind:

"Let's duel, Emerald."

"……duel?"

Amélie paused for a moment, then chuckled and patted Julia's head:

"You drank a bit too much tonight, didn't you? Go to sleep, stop fooling around."

"I'm not kidding! I'm talking about serious matters!"

Julia puffed out her cheeks and slapped away Amelie's hand:

"I'm practically in the integration phase now, so what kind of alcohol can really get me drunk if I don't want to? I really want to challenge you to a duel!"

"Alright alright……"

Emery shrugged helplessly and sat down next to Julia:

"So, baby, why do you suddenly want to duel me? Is it because you broke through? Well, there's no rush. We can have more fun tomorrow."

"Tomorrow... I might not have the courage."

Julia took a deep breath, and instead of immediately explaining that the duel she was referring to wasn't the one Emeryt understood, she continued:

"In a duel, the winner must receive a reward, right?"

"Of course, it's a duel after all."

Amélie nodded, finding it quite amusing:

"So, baby, what do you want? It's probably something I'd find hard to agree to, that you'd even consider a duel to achieve it?"

First of all, we can rule out almost all material needs, because Emerald has never refused Yulia's material needs, giving her whatever she wanted. In just two years, she transformed Yulia from a hardworking and good girl into a spoiled young lady who was used to extravagance.

Sure enough, Yulia bit her lip and made a request that had nothing to do with material things:

"If I win, Emerald, you'll have to be my girlfriend, and you have to turn over a new leaf and never be unfaithful again... Sissi and Anna are fine, but you're not allowed to ruin any new girls."

"Hoo hoo... Baby, you're so possessive of me~~"

Emerald raised an eyebrow in surprise, not expecting Julia to finally muster the courage to utter these words, which were tantamount to a confession, tonight. Then her voice became alluring:

"What if you lose, baby?"

"If I lose... Hmph, can't you just let me win? That just means you're still a womanizer, you wretched womanizer, drink some cold water!"

Julia glared at Emerald angrily, then pinched her before sighing helplessly:

"If I lose, I'll be your girlfriend from now on, and I'll do whatever you say. As long as you don't ask me to do anything unforgivable, I'll agree to anything, even if you fancy some pretty girl and I have to go and get her back for you... How about that? Satisfied now? You womanizer!"

"The reason my heart is fickle is because you, Julia, are too beautiful."

Emerald then took Julia's hand and placed it on her own body:

"Baby, it's your beauty that makes my heart flutter, that's why I'm unfaithful."

"Stop talking nonsense... What are you talking about!"

Julia's face flushed instantly; there was no way around it, Emery's clothes were too soft.

"You...you...just tell me if you dare to agree to my duel!"

"What's wrong with this?"

Emerald's smile transformed from alluring to confident and flamboyant:

"Baby, you don't really think that just because you've advanced to the Super Magical Form, you can defeat me in a duel, do you? Let me tell you, unless you're prepared to kill me, you have no chance of beating me... But are you willing to kill me, baby?"

"...Of course I'd be reluctant to part with it~~"

Yulia first blushed and hummed softly, then her face turned even redder, her cheeks became hot, and she even started sweating:

"And the duel I'm talking about... isn't the kind of duel that takes place in the training grounds."

"...Not a duel at the training grounds?"

This time, Emery was stunned for a while before her eyes widened and a smile involuntarily spread across her lips:

"So, darling, you mean that kind of duel? Oh my... I really didn't expect it. You always seem so innocent, darling, but you're actually this bold?"

"It's all your fault for corrupting me, humph!"

After the matter was pretty much out in the open, Yulia became less shy and even put her hands on her hips:

"Just tell me if you dare! Aren't you a seasoned, ruthless woman? You wouldn't dare accept a challenge from a complete novice like me, would you?"

"Who says I wouldn't dare accept it?"

Emery burst into laughter:

"Baby, you clearly didn't intend to win... If it were a duel in the training ground, you might have a chance to take advantage of my carelessness and beat me once. But a duel in the room at night... you have absolutely no chance against me! You're doomed to lose! I can't even imagine how you're going to win!"

"Hmph, that's not necessarily true~~"

Yulia's eyes gleamed with defiance:

"Tonight, I will punish you, you scumbag, on behalf of all the girls you've ruined!"

At this point, there's no point in saying anything more.

As the two gorgeous evening gowns arced through the air and landed on the ground, the atmosphere in the room instantly heated up.

The duel begins!

Yulia went first, relying on her high stats to easily suppress Emerald in speed.

Yulia didn't have much practical experience, but she had followed Emerald for two years and had observed Emerald's rewards and punishments for Marcy and Viliana, secretly memorizing some of her techniques.

Having gained the initiative, Yulia awkwardly used the same move that Emeryt had used to reward Viliana, hoping to win the round first.

Emery was only slightly taken aback before finding it amusing:

"Are you sure you want to use my methods against me, baby?"

Without waiting for Julia's reply, Amelie launched a skillful counterattack.

It turned out that the gap in strength between the two sides was still too great. After all, battles are different from battles. Yulia's numerical advantage was difficult to bring into play, and her weaknesses were well known to Emery.

Soon, with Emerald's counterattack, the tide of battle turned. Yulia, who had gained the initiative, was routed and lost the first round with almost no resistance.

"This is just a warm-up! Let's do it again!"

Yulia was naturally not convinced and immediately launched a new battle, relying on speed to take the initiative and using Emerald's moves against Emerald.

"...I told you this won't work, baby~~"

Emery, on the other hand, was even more adept. Taking advantage of the first round, she won the second round with almost no effort, leaving the defeated Julia speechless.
