No matter how dissatisfied Rose Vesper was, she couldn't scream and shout and throw a tantrum like an ordinary woman, she had to maintain the dignity of a Holy Daughter, enduring the mockery of others while pretending to be unaffected.
Ever since Qin Chu appeared, everything seed to go particularly awry. From the mont she t Qin Chu, she was intentionally or unintentionally seducing him, this man even beca dumbstruck because she was too beautiful, and when in the sa carriage, he would blush from shyness.
But why, in the end, did this man choose Angelica?
Could it really be just because he has a maid fetish? If he likes maids that much, couldn't she also wear a maid costu?
Suddenly, a terrifying thought occurred to Rose Vesper, could it be that Qin Chu knew sothing, which is why he kept his distance from her?
However, Rose Vesper quickly shook her head and tossed the idea aside, that was impossible.
Qin Chu was a hero who had just been summoned to this world, how could he possibly know her affairs if he didn't even understand the most basic rules of this world?
She must be overthinking it; this guy probably really is just a hopeless pervert with a maid fetish.
On the other hand, the banquet continued.
Even though he had already t everyone, he had to act as if it was the first ti, which proved to be a severe test for Qin Chu. Noble etiquette was particularly complicated, and after several exhausting hours, the banquet gradually drew to a close.
The banquet had one final ritual, which was for all the attendees to shake hands and say farewell in succession to the most honored guest of the event.
This ti, the most honored guest was naturally Qin Chu.
Qin Chu felt like an automaton, his face sporting a stiff smile as he beca an unfeeling handshaking machine.
Especially when a handso young noble shook his hand and even scratched a finger across the center of his palm, winking at him provocatively, leaving Qin Chu feeling a chill down his spine, goosebumps falling to the ground.
Damn it, he hadn't expected this world to have such characters too.
Angelica followed quietly behind Qin Chu. From that mont on, in Angelica's eyes, there was no one else but Qin Chu.
Qin Chu could feel Angelica's gaze. Although saving her from Rose Vesper would earn her gratitude, that alone wasn't enough.
After experiencing the first week, Qin Chu's personality had changed greatly; to him, any kind of gratitude was worthless in the face of absolute interest. In his previous life, he had saved many people, but those sa people scread for his execution at the execution site.
He wanted to make Angelica soone who couldn't live without him, soone whose body and mind belonged completely to him. Only in this manner could Qin Chu rest assured.
Unfortunately, he did not possess powers like hypnosis or spirit manipulation, mory tampering, or thought control. If he had such powers, it would have been much easier to control Angelica.
"Hey, can you teach magic related to spirit manipulation?" Qin Chu muttered to himself internally while dealing with the nobles in front of him.
Shaye erged from behind Qin Chu, as before, lazily lying on his shoulder, her silver hair fluttering gently, her exquisitely beautiful face showing slight displeasure: "I am the most powerful witch, but I cannot teach everything, you know."
"However, such powers do exist. The Pride Witch's Power of Pride Domination can manipulate the will of others and is very powerful. But sadly, in the face of the Pride Witch right now, you are less than an ant," Shaye said with disdain.
"How cos there's another Pride Witch, are there many witches?"
"Of course, there are currently thirteen existing witches: the Dark Witch, Space Witch, Curse Witch, Revenge Witch, Thunder Witch, Storm Witch, Fiery Fla Witch, Ice Witch, Pride Witch, Envy Witch, Gluttonous Witch, Sloth Witch, and... the Daughter of Death."
"It's just that not all witches associate themselves with demons."
"These witches are exceedingly dangerous, especially the Daughter of Death, who, even at my peak, I couldn't be sure of defeating. If you encounter any of these witches, you must be careful."
"Moreover, you absolutely cannot let other witches know that I am residing in you and have lost my powers. Otherwise, you will beco the target of all witches' attacks."
"Witches among themselves are not so harmonious. Apart from the existing thirteen, the Soul Witch was killed by the Daughter of Death, the Sea Witch was devoured by the Gluttonous Witch, the Earth Witch was taken out by the Space Witch..."
These witches sure have a killer instinct, they're all of the sa kind after all.
"The Ti Witch, the Strong Desire Witch were both taken down by , and I plundered their powers. The Fury Witch and the Greed Witch were also killed by , but unfortunately, I didn't manage to take their powers before they vanished..."
"Now, they have been inherited by you."
Well then, you're even more ruthless, truly living up to the na of the strongest witch, having taken out four witches yourself.
Fortunately, even among demons, there's no unity, with incessant strife among witches; otherwise, if all the demonic witches united, even in my strongest state in the first week, I might not stand a chance against so many powerful beings.
Although Shaye Nikolass warned that witches are highly dangerous, Qin Chu still kept this in mind. If there was an opportunity to seize the Pride Domination Power and then directly control Rose Vesper, to turn her into...
Just thinking about it is thrilling.
"By the way, is it really possible to resurrect soone who's already dead?" Qin Chu suddenly asked in his mind: "The Hero Team wants to kill to resurrect the First Generation Brave Hero Jie Luo. It's said that my blood can open the door to Jie Luo's resurrection. Can such a thing really happen?"
"Of course. As long as Jie Luo's soul hasn't completely disappeared and Rose Vesper and the others can gather Jie Luo's Soul Fragnts, reassembling the soul, there's a chance to bring Jie Luo back to life," Shaye imdiately answered.
"When Jie Luo challenged the Eternal Monarch Nag, I was right there. That guy's strength may not match yours, but his soul was incredibly resilient. Though it was shattered, it hasn't dissipated completely; Soul Fragnts drifted around the world."
Shaye's words made Qin Chu feel threatened. Though he had never t Jie Luo, in Qin Chu's heart, he subconsciously viewed Jie Luo as an enemy because Rose Vesper and others plotted against him precisely to resurrect Jie Luo.
"You say, if I can find Jie Luo's Soul Fragnts, can I use them to blackmail Rose Vesper, Catherine, and others?" Qin Chu's eyes glimred with a malevolent smile.
Using the soul of the man these won deeply loved to threaten them, basking in their venomous pain, hatred, and anger, as they were forced to do all sorts of things to et his demands... that must feel quite splendid, like a Minotaur commanding others.
"Tsk, I really underestimated you. You are just too shaless, too dirty; are you sure you're not a demon?"
"To your disappointnt, I am a genuine human being."
"Nevertheless, your character is even more twisted than a devil's. But I like it. Since that's the case, I'll help you again. I know where one of Jie Luo's Soul Fragnts has fallen... Whether you can get your hands on it, that's up to you."
The Pride Domination Power, Jie Luo's Soul Fragnt, Qin Chu squinted his eyes; for his plan of revenge, he had to get his hands on these two things.
While he could just progressively increase his strength and take all those people down, that would be far too boring. Moreover, Qin Chu didn't have so much ti on his hands. He was impatient to see those people's agony and despair.
As Qin Chu mulled over sinister thoughts in his mind, he still maintained a genial smile on his face. He had just seen off a noble when imdiately another man appeared before Qin Chu, slightly hunched over and looking rather shady.
"By the Goddess above, I am Earl Egbert Donald. If Mr. Brave has the ti, please do visit my estate. My wife and daughter will surely welco you warmly."
The chanical smile remained fixed on Qin Chu's face as he reached out and shook hands with Egbert Donald. His hand was very cold, like that of a dead person, barely holding any warmth.
Qin Chu found it a bit odd, but he didn't dwell on it.
However, at that mont, Shaye suddenly floated up and sat on Qin Chu's shoulder, her slender legs swinging in front of his chest. Within the entire hall, no one but Qin Chu noticed Shaye's presence.
Shaye didn't seem to care that her soft thighs were pressing right against Qin Chu's face.
Her crimson eyes were fixed dead ahead on Earl Donald.
"Hey, be careful; this guy... is a demon!"
