The villain's way to tame the protagonist

Just as Helen said, Ming Furo, who did everything for herself, was finally defeated by Helen's attachment to Ansher.

Ansel wanted Helen to prove her loyalty by destroying her past beliefs, but in the final confrontation, Helen gave a better answer.

In contrast to Ming Furo's deep indifference towards Ansir, everything she thought and did was far beyond Ansir's expectations.

From then on, Anser finally had a "daughter" who had the same talent as Mingflora Zeg, but was absolutely loyal to him.

After three years of long planning, it has now come to an end.

"However, if Helen wants to clear the obstacles for me and does not intend to wear the Ring of Contract until this goal is achieved."

Anser smiled and rubbed Helen's cheek: "That will take a very long time."

Hitana on the opposite side snorted very unhappily, and almost said "Don't imitate me, you little dwarf".

Ansel had originally planned to give the Ring of the Covenant to Helen, but his beloved daughter calmly refused.

[Please let me prove my worth to you, then I will have the confidence to wear that ring] - These are Helen's original words.

Ansel readily agreed to this. Helen obviously wanted to prove that in addition to her loyalty to Ansel, she was also as capable as Ming Furo, so she made this request. Of course, there was no reason for him to refuse.

"If there comes a time when I need your strength, then I will certainly ask for your help, father."

Helen was not that stubborn. She turned her head slightly and kissed Ansel's cheek: "Please keep your eyes on me, father."

Miss Wolf was so furious that she wanted to grab Helen and throw her eight hundred meters away, and then sit on Ansel's lap. However, Marina's warning look and her own mature brain stopped her from howling on the spot. She could only hold her breath and sit on the chair, looking unhappy.

——Even though she was fighting with Ansher all night long, and Helen was staying in the alchemy workshop all the time, and had never been neglected at all, Shitana still didn't want to see someone twisting and turning in Ansher's arms.

"It's time, Father."

After a while, Helen suddenly said, "I should go to the workshop now, you..."

She paused and said in a very gentle voice: "Can you come with me?"

Anser glanced at the impatient Miss Sitana. Although she looked very unhappy, she still said honestly: "I...I'm going to exercise. Lina, come with me!"

She stood up, walked quickly behind Ansel, and pulled Marina away.

But after taking only two steps, Shitana stopped again. She turned back and bit Ansel's other cheek lightly, while glaring at Helen with a wolf-like look.

After licking Ansel's cheek with her pink tongue for a while, Sitana dragged Marina away contentedly.

Her demonstration made Anser feel a little funny, but also a little...emotional.

Shitana's possessiveness is not simply the possessiveness of "love", it is the strong possessiveness of a future overlord for the things he cherishes... Even though Shitana's character has been tamed by herself, as time goes by, that kind of strength and domineering have already shown signs.

The nature of the Beast King is difficult to change. After completing the training of Helen, finding a way to deal with Xi'er's spiritual essence must be put on the agenda.

As Ansher was thinking this, he suddenly felt a wet, soft touch on the side of his cheek that had just been licked by Sitana.

Miss Helen was lying on Ansel's shoulder, trying to cover up the traces left by Sitana with a dazed look in her eyes.

But soon, her action was stopped by Ansher.

Anser wiped his cheek with a silk scarf and said with some amusement: "Aren't we going to the workshop? Let's go, Helen."

"..." Helen looked at Anser in a daze, but soon lowered her head respectfully and obediently, and responded softly, "Yes, father."

On the other side, Hitana pulled Marina and walked a long way away, and looked back again and again to make sure that even the shadows of Ansel and Helen could not be seen before revealing her true nature in front of her sister.

"Lina Lina!"

The girl grabbed her sister's arm and shook it vigorously, her face full of indignation: "This is not right!"

"..." Marina sighed helplessly, "What's wrong?"

"That Mingfu... No, that Helen. How did she succeed?"

Xitana's emotions were so intense that she was a little incoherent. She gestured with her hands unwillingly, "I suffered so much to become Anser's contracted leader. How could she do it so easily?"

Marina reached out and touched Xitana's forehead: "Then why don't you think about why you suffered so much in the first place? Why did Mr. Anser make you suffer so much?"

"This...this..."

Xitana hesitated for a moment, but soon she said loudly: "Although I was not very good at that time, this Helen, she was not much better than me at the beginning!"

"That means she must have experienced despair and pain that you, Xi'er, have never known, and even...a more difficult decision than yours."

Marina's expression changed from lecturing to gentleness. She stroked Sitana's head and said earnestly, "Don't underestimate the person chosen by Mr. Anser. Besides, didn't you want to help her before?"

"I wasn't helping her, I was helping Anser!"

Xitana said angrily: "Who knew that she would be able to sit on Ansel's lap and protest to me in such a short time... Damn it! By the way, Lina, this is the most abnormal thing about that girl!"

Her eyes lit up, she reached out her hand and shook Marina's shoulders vigorously:

"——Why does she like Anser so much for no apparent reason? She wants to cling to Anser like that! She was not like this before!"

Marina was slightly stunned. She knew nothing about Ansel's specific method of training Helen, but she could infer from the results that it was probably a method of breaking down and then rebuilding, and a more thorough method than that used by Shitana.

But the new "Helen", just as Xitana said, has no reason to stick to Anser so easily, unless...

"Unless she actually cared about Mr. Anser very much before."

Marina murmured thoughtfully, "It's just that the thing that caused them to break up in the first place sealed this feeling."

"Lina, you are being inconsistent." Xitana looked puzzled. "If she cared about Anser so much, why would she break up with Anser?"

"Because Miss Ming Fuluo used to be the type who put her ideals above everything else. No... But in this case, it's not like she really cared about Mr. Anser, but..."

Marina also sensed something strange because of what Sitana said. She frowned slightly and wanted to continue thinking about it, when a thought suddenly popped up in her mind.

Mr. Anser's choice will not be wrong.

This thought made Marina's brows relax, and at the same time she secretly reminded herself, how could she question Mr. Anser's decision so casually?

"Xi'er, do you think Mr. Anser is wrong?"

"…What? I'm not! I didn't!"

Xitana immediately raised her voice: "I just think that guy is a little strange... I am the head of the wind! My intuition is very sensitive!"

"But Mr. Anser can definitely think more and consider further than you, right?" Marina replied gently.

“……” Miss Wolf scratched her cheek, seeming to be speechless.

"Is it that difficult to admit that I was just jealous of Miss Helen?"

Marina pinched Xitana's cheek and said with amusement, "But Miss Helen hasn't done it with Mr. Anser yet. Are you so insecure, Xier?"

"Ahhh, I already said no, no!"

While playing with her sister, although Marina felt that Ansel could not have done anything wrong, she still couldn't let go of her thoughts about Helen.

Mr. Anser would not make the wrong choice, but Miss Helen...

Recalling Helen's lifeless eyes, and the look she gave Ansher when she looked at him, which was of course absolutely loyal, but was equivalent to... fanatical, Marina also thought of what Anelsa had said to her.

Anser requires absolute loyalty, but there are too many people who can be absolutely loyal to Anser to count.

Under that absolute loyalty, Anser also needs his followers to have independent selves and the possibility of creation, rather than being corrupt people who are completely addicted to his evil nature.

Thinking of Helen calling Ansel "father", Marina couldn't help but say to herself:

Miss Helen, are you really the person Mr. Anser needs?

*

In the alchemy workshop, groups of Nidhoggr were operating in an orderly manner. Although they were not as efficient and large-scale as those controlled by Ming Furo, Helen's control level was also improving rapidly.

Anser watched all this with a pleased look on his face, and said:

"How do you think Helen will improve after she devours you?"

This sentence is obviously not addressed to Helen, so it can only be...

Ming Fuluo, who was tightly bound by the restraint device, closed her eyes and said nothing.

That day, the victorious Helen did not kill Ming Fuluo, nor did she devour her soul, making her own soul the real subject.

Because Helen told Ansel that she was worried that such direct devouring would allow Ming Furo's thoughts to infect herself. She did not want her new life, such a pure self, to be tainted by the debris of the past. She wanted to wait until Flamel was free to perform a sufficiently precise "operation".

Ansher agreed, and Ming Fuluo was able to survive.

Anser, who did not hear the answer, continued to talk to himself: "In the past three years, besides studying those secret books, you have been perceiving the world through Helen... So I am very curious, Ming Fuluo, what exactly has made you hate me so much in the past three years?"

Hearing this, Ming Fuluo opened her eyes and replied coldly: "Aren't you the same?"

"I am not...same?"

Ansel was stunned for a moment, then he covered his forehead and couldn't help laughing.

"Yeah, yeah... me too."

He reached out and stroked Ming Fuluo's long blue-gray hair, speaking gently but with cold eyes:

"I am the same. I have hated you for three whole years. I am the same. I have never cared about you. I am the same... I don't intend to give you the slightest chance."

The young Hydra suddenly grabbed Ming Fuluo's hair, leaned over and whispered:

"If I were like you, there would be no Helen, no Ming Fuluo, nothing... nothing."

Ming Fuluo's expression was not shaken by the pain. Her purple eyes, which looked at Anser, were only flashing with cold light.

"You want to disguise and twist this condescending attitude into affection for me? Even though you've said it yourself that everything was a lie, and even though you've won a great victory now, you still want to emphasize that and want to criticize me from a high position?"

"How... hypocritical, Anser."

Ansher didn't say anything, but just let go of Ming Fuluo indifferently and stopped looking at her.

But the next second, the restrained Ming Furo suddenly groaned in pain. Ansel subconsciously turned his head and found the problem at a glance.

"...Helen."

He withdrew his gaze from Ming Fuluo and said softly, "That's enough."

Helen, who was manipulating Nidhogg to drill into Mingfuluo's body and eat her flesh, had a cold expression on her face: "She must pay the price for her rudeness and arrogance, father."

Ming Fuluo's groans of pain became louder and louder. Helen obviously did not hold back at all. Her lifeless eyes were full of cruelty and brutality. After being silent for three or four seconds, Anser spoke again:

"I said, enough is enough."

"..."

Petite Helen immediately stopped what she was doing, lowered her head towards Ansel, and responded softly: "I understand, father."

Seeing her, Anser's eyes and tone quickly softened: "There's no need to be so angry because of her, Helen. When you are creating, you can't let external things affect your mood so easily."

"Anything about my father cannot be considered external."

Helen responded: "That's my state of mind itself."

Anser glanced at Ming Fuluo, who was biting her lips and had beads of sweat on her forehead, then looked at Helen who was staring at him and smiled: "No, that won't do. That will become your weakness... Don't be so weak, Helen."

"..." Helen opened her mouth, lowered her eyes slightly, and asked in a very soft voice:

"Is caring about you a weakness?"

"I care too much."

Anser said seriously, as if he was really teaching his daughter: "I need you to love me and be loyal to me. I am also very happy that you love me and be loyal to me... But you must remember, Helen, you must not be enslaved by this feeling. You must be able to do it at any time even if you have it in your heart-"

As he said this, he seemed to have thought of something.

The young Hydra looked away, staring at the empty corner, and said calmly:

"You can always make the most correct choice."

"I understand." Helen nodded slightly, "If this is what father wants."

Anser smiled and said, "That's good. Continue doing your work. If you need me for anything, just let me know."

"The etheric weapons to be delivered to Ivora are almost complete, but two of the three alchemy masters seem to have fallen into the abyss and are on the verge of madness..."

"I'll take care of it, good job, Helen."

Anser held up the side of his face, half-closed his eyes and said, "Very timely."

"Regarding the strengthening of Nidhogg... I would like to refer to Mr. Flamel's Creator Essence. Perhaps I can find a new way."

"I'll tell him after my father is done."

"Okay, father, besides that, I... have another question."

Helen, who had lowered her head and started researching again, asked calmly, "Father's enemy, is it the emperor? You never told me directly who it is or what it is."
