The villain's way to tame the protagonist

It was incomprehensible that the stupid girl who was originally obsessed with fighting, after hearing Conrad's insult to Anser, instantly transformed into an extremely evil monster from the abyss.

She couldn't understand... No, could she really not understand?

Before the light on Conrad's sword exploded, which seemed to be able to flatten the entire floor, or even several floors, Hitana had already roared in anger and furiously blasted out with a punch of pure power and pure destruction!

When she threw this punch, her mind was not dominated by anger, but was filled with everything she had just realized.

The perception of the flow of ether, the vortex of power, does not require close contact, but can also entrust the power of the body to the ether in some way, transform, compress, and finally...

explosion!

A look of cruelty and joy burst out from the dazzling dark red snake pupils.

You are a worthless scum, get out of this world right now!

Then, starting from Hitana's punch, a red-black light suddenly lit up... emitting a destructive aura.

It first shrank into a line, and then suddenly expanded to four or five meters wide. When Hitana threw a punch, there was an eardrum-shattering roar!

Then, everything disappeared in front of her.

A gully nearly four or five meters wide and two or three meters deep moved forward, destroying one wall after another and directly blasting through... this entire floor.

Of course, the avenger who held up a sword and denounced the absurdity of this world has also disappeared.

All the fifth-level extraordinary people who were watching her fell silent.

"This……"

Someone whispered, "Is there any explanation for this?"

"If I must say... the power of Hydra's real projection is indeed amazing."

"But she just stuffed it all in, right?"

"Um……"

"Third level?"

"Third level."

Then there was another long silence.

In this long silence, in this messy battlefield, one of the core figures of the incident finally appeared.

He leaned on his cane, walked over the gravel and walked towards the girl who was slumped on the ground, gasping for breath, with a happy and satisfied smile on his face.

"Well done, Sitana."

Hitana, who was too tired to pay attention to her surroundings, tried to raise her head immediately after hearing the voice, but the warm and soft hand was already on top of her head, caressing it gently.

"Absolutely, absolutely, absolutely perfect."

Anser stroked the girl's soft hair and said with a smile: "You are really the best."

"Hehe...hehehe...don't say that. I'll be embarrassed."

Although she was so tired that she could hardly move, Xitana's body still twisted unconsciously twice. She pressed herself against Anser's thigh and rubbed it gently with her eyes closed: "I should thank Anser. It was so refreshing to fight him this time! And more! I learned something new. I will show it to you after I have rested! Ah! And, Anser, can you help me come up with a name for this move!"

Miss Wolf spoke a series of words with great joy, while Ansher half-knelt on one knee beside her, holding her hand and responding with a chuckle.

"But... I'm really tired..."

Sitana leaned her head against Anser's shoulder and said weakly, "I feel like my whole body has been drained, and Anser's body is too big... It's so big that it hurts all over. This trick really can't be used casually."

"Go back and have a good rest. I'll ask Old Moff to make you a feast."

"Great! I want to eat fire dragon meat, and that beef steak, and... and..."

The girl muttered like this, her voice getting smaller and smaller, until her tired eyes closed completely, and the only sound left was her steady breathing.

"Have a good rest." Anser kissed Xitana's forehead gently, "Good girl."

And behind the two of them, less than three or four meters away, Ming Fuluo, who was seriously injured by Conrad's attack and was also very tired, was half-lying on the ground, and she almost had to raise her head to see Anser's back.

I just happened to see him holding Sitana's waist and gently kissing the girl's forehead.

“…Anser.”

Ming Fuluo curled up slightly and tried to prop up her upper body with her hands to make herself look less embarrassed: "I..."

"Ah, I'm glad you're okay, Ming Fuluo."

Anser turned his head to look at the petite woman whose forehead and glasses were covered in blood, and said gently, "I'm sorry to involve you."

Ming Fuluo was stunned.

"… dragged me into this?"

"Yes."

Anser gently stroked the sleeping Xitana leaning on his shoulder: "Conrad, this is my gift to Xitana."

"She couldn't find a suitable enemy or opponent to fight with, and she had a desire to make a name for herself... She wasn't very happy during her stay in the imperial capital."

The young Hydra just stared at the girl in his arms, his voice extremely gentle:

"So I prepared the best enemy and the best stage for her... Everyone will remember this day, everyone will remember her name."

After saying this, he glanced at Ming Fuluo again and said in a gentle tone: "I'm sorry to steal your limelight. Well... your choice is also very good and qualified."

"So..." Some unspeakable emotions welled up in Ming Fuluo's heart, and her speech speed unconsciously sped up a little, "So, it's still to set me up, right? Right?"

"Ah, well..."

Anser thought for a while, then laughed and said lightly:

"It's just by the way."

By the way... I guess.

"It's great that you can think of the way out I left behind, but I don't care whether you choose to sacrifice or not... After all, you will eventually take that step."

Anser's tone was completely different from when he spoke to Xitana. Even though it was still gentle, Ming Furo could feel the difference between the two very clearly.

"Are you so sure that I will eventually...become an ideal monster?"

Ming Fuluo whispered.

"What are you talking about, dear A Luo?"

Anser asked in surprise, then shook his head and laughed: "If I wasn't sure, why would I make that bet? Betting that you would sacrifice everything for your ideals, betting that your ideals would be destroyed by your madness."

"After all, three years ago..."

"Didn't you tell me the answer?"

Those extremely gentle words made Ming Fuluo's limbs become cold and stiff.

Anser carried Xitana on his back, stood up, and said without turning his head:

"You've already made your choice, A'Luo. It's not me you need anyway."

"Anser, wait——"

"Hoo...Hoo...An, Anse, I want a kiss..." The sleepy girl spoke coquettishly in her sleep.

"...There's really nothing I can do about you."

"hey-hey……"

The petite woman half-lying on the ground subconsciously reached out her hand towards the figure from behind. The words she wanted to say were blocked by the mumbling of the girl he was carrying.

Yes, Ming Fuluo passed Anser's test.

——She realized that there was an insurmountable barrier between the two of them.

It was clear that last night, that young and handsome boy was whispering thrilling words in his ear, but now, there is not even a trace of himself in his eyes.

During this period of time, it seemed that he had been trying to tame herself and control herself. No matter what... he cared about her and didn't even want to pull her up.

This is more tormenting and heart-wrenching than any pure indifference, deliberate alienation, or simple politeness.

Because it's like saying -

No matter how close we are, no matter how much I need you, no matter how I try to manipulate you, no matter how complicated the entanglement between us is...

I will no longer walk with you.

At this moment, a huge feeling of loneliness engulfed Ming Furo.

And then there was fear, fear and—

It’s not overwhelming, but it’s so vivid, so painful...regret.

Chapter 42: No Rest for the Snake

The absurd farce in Ether Court came to an end.

According to subsequent reports, Conrad brought out a batch of hidden resources before the Shenghui family was completely controlled. He used these resources to hire a fifth-level mercenary from Zero Point Explorer and purchased a top-level forced teleportation scroll that was difficult to defend against even at the fifth level. He forcibly sent away Ronggel and Barnes, leaving him alone to kill Ming Furo.

It can only be said that Mr. Conrad's obsession with killing Ming Furo with his own hands, and the "sense of ritual" from the nobility, made his defeat justified - even if he hired a killer to kill Ming Furo directly, the success rate would be infinitely close to 100%.

However, Conrad's death does not mean... that everything is over.

Various forces are still fighting over the Holy Glory Legacy. Sauron, who originally had the greatest chance of winning, no longer has an overwhelming competitive advantage because of the sudden situation.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the chaos and fierce fighting that day was a grand show arranged by Anser for his important confederate.

The stage was the Ether Institute headquarters, which happened to be at the center of this huge storm. At least two dozen fifth-order transcendents gathered here and cast their gazes.

His opponent is the heir to a grand ducal family that is at the end of its rope but has a strong foundation. With the blessing of madness and resources, the power that Conrad exerts... is obvious to all.

The stage was the focus of everyone's attention, the opponents fought hard, and our leading actress, Miss Sitana Lansmalos, lived up to expectations and won the awe-inspiring crown.

No matter it is the strange and powerful spiritual essence, the terrifying talent, or the compatibility with the power of the Contract... no one will doubt Xitana's potential. If her growth path is smooth sailing, then in three to four years at the shortest, or five to six years at the longest, a monster capable of overwhelming the empire will be born in Anther's hands.

What is even more chilling is that following Hitana's growth path, there is a high probability that everything will go smoothly, so smooth that it cannot be smoother.

[Undead Disaster] - This is the name for Shitana that has gradually spread among the extraordinary people in the imperial capital.

Immortality is straightforward and reflects the most important characteristic of Xitana in battle; and disaster... comes from her bad reputation in the Red Frost Territory and the kind of terrifying cruelty and tyranny she displayed in battle.

Everyone who has watched the video of this battle will ask themselves - if they were facing Hitana, facing that monster that was so eager to fight and kill, and looking into those dark red eyes that seemed to want to devour all their flesh and blood...how much fighting spirit could they still muster?

The results achieved by Hitana were undoubtedly perfect, and it was precisely this perfection that made the bigwigs begin to speculate about Anser's real intention of appearing in the Ether Court.

Was he really standing up for Soran, or was he attending Soran's lecture just to prevent Conrad from daring to take the bait because of his presence?

Does he really not care much about the Tower of Babel? If so, what about the truly subversive [Data System] that Ming Fuluo demonstrated?

She said it was Anser who invented it. Who in the world is brave enough to use Anser to block a knife? And if Anser is generous enough to give this thing to Ming Fuluo, how can the relationship between him and Babel Tower not be close?

Every time someone thought they could figure out the young Hydra's intentions, developments always shattered their fantasies.

Because of this, Anther's position became unclear again, and the Tower of Babel became an object worth fighting for again. Their value continued to rise, but it also meant that in this huge vortex that had not yet dissipated... they had no way to go and nowhere to escape.

——If you take another wrong step, the consequences will be disastrous.

"Hendrick."

In front of Hendrick's desk, a middle-aged man wearing a black robe inlaid with many gemstones nodded slightly: "What do you think of this?"

"…Your Excellency, I cannot make a decision on this matter."

The current leader of Babel Tower smiled bitterly and said, "The data system belongs to Ming Fuluo, no... it belongs to Lord Anser. I really can't decide anything on my own."

"Since Anser has handed it over to you, he has naturally handed over the decision-making power as well."

Grand Duke Mosu, one of the nine highest seats in the Ether Academy, said calmly, "I must get this thing. If you are not satisfied with my current price, you can raise the price."

"but……"

dong dong dong-

The knock on the door interrupted Hendrick's words, and Grand Duke Mosu tilted his head slightly: "Come in."

A petite woman wearing grey glasses pushed the door open and walked in. In today's imperial capital, not many people would be unfamiliar with her.

——Data system... A complex spell that breaks through the limitations of traditional spells, a gold mine of infinite value and a treasure of unlimited potential. Even the most basic warlock apprentice can see its huge value.

If it weren't for the unbridled Miss Disaster, Ming Fuluo Zeger would obviously become the most sought-after figure in the imperial capital after the lecture that day.
