The villain's way to tame the protagonist

Awe and fear of the violence that transcends everything

"They should... submit to me!"

The Beast King, whose youthfulness and immaturity had gradually faded, said this with a rebellious and arrogant smile.

Chapter 6: She Doesn't Give Up (K)

"The big bear wouldn't listen to me, so I killed it."

Xitana patted her flat belly and said, "I thought it wouldn't go to waste, so I dragged it here. The chef in this fortress is pretty good!"

The flesh and blood of high-level extraordinary creatures cannot be eaten by these low-level extraordinary creatures and ordinary people...Has Xier completed "eating" before eating it?

"Xier's growth rate is really amazing." Ansher sighed softly.

Even though Ansor had an extremely clear understanding of Xitana's gifts and abilities, he still found it hard to believe that after each short separation, Xitana would achieve breakthrough growth.

It was an extremely correct decision to capture Hitana first. Otherwise, no one would know how terrifying Miss Wolf would grow to be because of some adventure while he was making long preparations and plans.

Hitana, who always gets flattered by Anser's praise, now acts nonchalant: "It's because Anser gave me so many resources that I can become so powerful. Shouldn't anyone be like this?"

"Your words will make all the extraordinary people in this world despair and commit suicide."

Ansher couldn't help but rubbed Shitana's snow-white hair. Her short hair, which was originally at the level of her earlobes, now just touched her shoulders. The girl, who didn't take care of her hair much, tied the long hair into a small braid to save trouble, making her look more playful and cute.

"Hehe, I'll just take it as Anser praising me!"

In fact, Hitana has no real sense of her own talent, even though she instinctively pursues power... no, it should be because of her instinctive pursuit of power that she will never be satisfied with the power she currently possesses even for a moment. Even though more and more people are in awe of her, even if monsters that are equivalent to disasters have to bow down to her violence, she will not take her talent too seriously.

But Anser is different. Anser's praise and joy always make Xitana happier than any external feedback.

"So... Xi'er plans to gather a group of monsters and launch a counterattack to the North, right?"

The monster standing at the top of the monsters cast a very interested look at these "little guys".

The special situation in the North makes the monsters born here obviously stronger than those in other regions. However, most of them do not have strong hostility towards humans. They only pursue larger and purer ether, and regard it as the source of life. They are also driven by animal nature all day long out of desire for power. This is why they will settle down after finding a certain area, regard it as their territory, and only attack outsiders.

After all, theoretically speaking, they don't need to eat and have no appetite. As long as there is plenty of ether and no enemies invade the occupied territory, they will often just wake up to absorb ether, and then continue sleeping when they are full.

But during this time, Xitana has captured... well, gathered so many little helpers...

Anser casually stroked the snow leopard nestling on the edge of the city wall. It was obviously smarter and stronger than the dragon Sif. Although its body was trembling, it was trying its best to restrain the fear in its heart so as not to get angry, and occasionally made one or two flattering calls.

"Yeah! I originally thought they were enough, but after thinking about it... the Northland is so big, and the two Grand Dukes have so many people under their command. If they are not enough and we fail to kill them all in one go, that would be too troublesome."

Xitana scratched Sif's chin and said, "So I plan to gather fifty powerful guys and then go to conquer the North!"

She looked up at Anser, her smile so bright that it seemed to make the blizzard in the sky no longer cold:

"This is my plan. Isn't it awesome, Anser?"

"Hmm... Regardless of whether it's powerful or not, it's indeed very Xier's style."

Rather than defending and protecting, it is better to kill all the people who bring danger before the danger comes. Xier's style of doing things has not changed at all.

Anser rubbed the snow leopard's warm fur. He was pleased with Xitana's growth and at ease with her unchanged state.

"But... you should be aware of something deeper, Xier."

"A deeper...level?" Sitana tilted her head, looking puzzled.

"You live in the North and are an excellent hunter. You should know the habits of these monsters."

Anser stared at the white light in the distance. It seemed that the snowstorm that would never stop covered everything, and the road ahead was shrouded in gray chaos.

"They won't leave their territory easily, and there's no reason for them to attack humans."

Anser turned to look at Xitana and said meaningfully: "How many of these little guys did you catch from their territory, and how many... did you find them on the road?"

Xitana was stunned for a moment, then her brows gradually tightened.

"Yeah...what's going on?"

She recalled the process of capturing... no, taming these little brothers, and gradually realized from a hunter's perspective that Anser's reminder... was very important.

"The snow is getting heavier." Hydra sighed softly, "If it doesn't stop, what will become of the North?"

Hitana was just pondering over why the monsters left their territory and frequently attacked humans, but when she heard Anser's words, her eyes immediately widened.

She jumped off Sif's back and landed in Anther's arms. Anther seemed to have foreseen the situation and held her steadily. Their movements were in perfect harmony and smooth.

"Anser...are you here to solve the heavy snow in the North?"

Xitana supported Anser's shoulders, wrapped her long and strong legs around his waist, her eyes sparkling: "I knew that Anser would not ignore this place!"

"Well... after all, to some extent, I am responsible for the current situation in the North."

The snow and wind were reflected in his sea-blue eyes. Anser whispered softly, "Will you blame me, Xier?"

Hitana was stunned for a moment, then gently buried Ansel's face between the tall and plump fruits, and rubbed her cheek against his hair affectionately.

"I won't blame Anser. Anser is always the best. No matter what he does, he is the best!"

Unconditional trust.

After hearing Anelsa's final whispers to Ansher, making a vow to Ansher and receiving the same promise, Hitana's trust was so pure that she didn't care even if it was considered blind.

Trusting Anther is a matter of course. If even Anther cannot be trusted, then no one in this world is trustworthy - this is Hitana's understanding of the word "trust".

"Don't you want to ask Xi'er why I let Ivora go and let her create such a mess?"

Anser asked softly.

"Hmm... hm? I don't really care. Anyway, no civilians died in the imperial capital at that time, and nothing bad has happened since this war."

Xitana scratched her head and said, "But I am indeed a little curious. Why did Anser let that guy escape? Wouldn't it be better to tie her up naked in the yard?"

Anser patted Xitana's butt gently, and the latter jumped down from Anser's arms very obediently. Then he jumped lightly onto Sif's back and reached out to pull Xitana up.

"Let your friends go, Xi'er. If they keep gathering here, the soldiers in the fortress will be frightened."

Hitana nodded obediently and let out a low roar from her throat. The monsters that she had summoned but did nothing then left obediently.

"What about us?" Xitana blinked, "Are we going to deal with this heavy snow now?"

"It's not the right time yet, Xi'er."

Anser shook his head: "Now, let's go to the center of the North. You know where that is."

"Center...ah! Anser, are you talking about that little sun?"

Sitana reacted immediately: "The one that Ivora made?"

"It's right there. Let Sif take us there."

"Oh!"

Following Xitana's excited response, Sif flapped her wings and flew into the blizzard like a fish returning to the sea.

"That Ivora guy...although he's basically useless, he can still do good things occasionally."

Sitana, who was sitting on Sif's neck and swinging her legs, said loudly: "That little sun must have protected many civilians in the North!"

"Although it was not out of good intentions, the result is more or less positive." Anser nodded. "Ivora is not a tyrant in the normal sense. Tyrants do not care about the life and death of their people, but she does care - because she cannot accept the meaningless loss of her own property before her eyes."

"...After Anser said that, it sounded a bit infuriating."

The corner of Xitana's eye twitched: "That girl is really hopeless, Anser, you should tie her up in the yard."

"After she completes her mission, it's not impossible to consider it. Let's see how she performs."

"Hmm? Her mission?"

Miss Wolf turned her head and looked at Anser curiously: "So why did Anser let her make such a fuss?"

Anser smiled and said, "Isn't it almost here? You will know soon."

Sif was moving very fast, and the blood-red sun blazing in the wind and snow was clearly visible. The young dragon showed a look of fear after seeing the sun, and it whimpered, as if it wanted to stop or even turn back.

"How can you be so timid!"

Xitana hit it on the head: "Anser and I are here, what are you afraid of?"

"It's a proper dragon after all. It has a stronger self and emotions than an ethereal monster. Don't make it too hard on this little guy."

Anser comforted Sif with amusement: "Don't worry, you will be fine."

"Woo~"

Sif let out a purring sound from her throat that gradually calmed down, and she even looked back at Anther.

"Why are you acting so spoiled? It's only been a few minutes, really..."

Xitana scratched her head in confusion: "Anser, why does Sif listen to you so much? I beat it several times and made it tremble when it saw me raise my hand. Only then did it start to listen to me."

"Well..." Anser touched Xitana's head with a smile, "Maybe it's because I have a special talent in animal taming."

"Hmm... I think so... huhuhu..."

Miss Wolf, whose head was being rubbed, made a comfortable purring sound exactly like Sif's.

"...You came all the way here just to let me see you and your puppy playing sex games here?"

After a while, a cold voice, in stark contrast to the heat, came from the flames that ignited out of nowhere. Ivora stepped out of the fire and stared at Anser and Xitana expressionlessly: "You think I'm just a part of your evil game?"

As soon as Ivora appeared, Sitana immediately stopped her comfortable look with her eyes half-closed and seamlessly switched to a ferocious and evil appearance of a natural disaster.

"Know your position, Ivora... Believe it or not, I'll have Anser tie you up in the yard!"

Sitana seemed to have some special obsession with tying Ivora up in the yard.

Ivora's eyelids twitched, but she did not confront Xitana. Instead, she looked at Anser with a gloomy face: "Are you going to change someone to humiliate me this time?"

In the past, Ivola would have started saying all kinds of vulgar words that would have tortured her, but she seemed to have changed recently and her patience had become stronger and stronger.

"Do I come to you every time just to humiliate you?" Ansher raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Isn't it... Then what's the matter? Tell me now!"

"Lost Sea."

Anser's tone was nonchalant, but Ivora's expression suddenly changed.

"Do you think your mother is still asleep or dead?"

Ivola did not answer immediately, but looked around vigilantly - not just looking around, she used all the detection methods she could currently use.

"Are you sure you want to talk about this now?" After doing all this, she raised her voice in disbelief, "In a place like this?"

Anser asked back: "Is it not possible? Is there anyone else who would eavesdrop? Do you think I wouldn't notice?"

"you……"

Two blue veins popped up on Ivola's forehead, and they slowly disappeared after a while: "Okay, you have the final say. If you don't care, then I don't care either."

Then she exhaled slowly and said in a deep voice: "She should... not be dead yet."

Uh-huh? !

Hitana was not stupid, so she got shocking news from the conversation between Ansel and Ivora.

"That emperor..." the girl screamed, "She's not dead?!"

"Idiot, are you yelling so loudly so that everyone below can hear you?"

"Who told you to say such a ridiculous thing... How could she not be dead?"

Xitana's eyes widened: "That what, what source flame, didn't it burn her to death?"

"...Humph." Ivora sneered and crossed his arms across his chest, "Why don't you ask your master why he is so sure that the old man can't die."

Anser did not respond to Ivora's words, but told Xitana another story: "Do you remember why I must rescue Ivora, Xier?"

"Um...oh! I remember, it's because Anser thought it was important to turn her into someone like that!"

Sitana unconsciously shifted her gaze to Ivora: "I saved her to get information... but that's all you can do."

Miss Wolf said this with great contempt.

"Yes, for intelligence." Ansher nodded slightly. Although his tone was calm, his eyes were unusually cold and grim.

He didn’t even find the person behind the murder of his mother from the time traveler’s memory... or any information about these people.

"Ivola doesn't know much, but her information is still crucial."

"...The Abyss Caller."
