I Became the Demon King of Lust Chapter 57: Being chased

When she woke up, the Ice Princess found that she was being carried by soone.

She slowly started to rember what had happened and when she did, she suddenly started to struggle.

When I noticed that she was struggling on my back, I imdiately said, "Wait, calm down! I'm not going to hurt you!"

The Ice Princess was surprised by this voice and when she looked down to see who it was, she stopped struggling. But she quickly asked, "What happened back there?"

I gave a sigh and said, "I could sneak up on that C Ranker, but I'm just a porter so it isn't as if I could defeat him. All I could do was grab you and your weapon and run."

The Ice Princess didn't say anything at first, but then she slowly gave a nod of agreent as she accepted what I had said.

What I said did make sense since she knew what kind of power I had. It definitely wouldn't have been enough to defeat the C Ranker.

But the thing that she couldn't help finding strange was how I had managed to sneak up on the C Ranker in the first place. After all, from what she could see, it was as if I had suddenly appeared out of nowhere when I had arrived in front of her to save her.

So she did have so suspicions about …

But in the end, she knew that what was important was getting out of her.

At the sa ti, she didn't feel any ill intent from , so she could accept that I was trying to help.

In the end, the most important thing was that she could still feel the poison inside of her body.

Even after resting for a bit, she still didn't have full control of her body and she knew that she wouldn't be able to move if it wasn't for carrying her.

However, there was still sothing that she had to do…

So the Ice Princess said, "Wait, we need to go back and see what happened to the others. If there are any people that we can help, we need to go back and help them."

I shook my head right away and said, "There's no ti for that."

The Ice Princess knitted her brows as she said, "Why? Isn't it important that we save…"

Before she could finish, I said, "We're being chased, so we need to get out of here alive first."

The Ice Princess knitted her brows even more when she heard this and she focused her senses on our surroundings. It took her no ti at all to find that I was telling the truth.

She could sense that there were two people who were currently following us and they were getting closer and closer.

As soon as she realized this, she imdiately said, "Put down and run. It's clear that they're after ."

I just said with a bitter smile on my face, "How could I do that after I went through all of that to save you?"

The Ice Princess said with a frown, "If you leave now, you'll have a chance to escape. If you don't, you'll die with . I think you know what you should do."

I shook my head and said, "Who knows? I like to believe that things aren't destined in this world. As long as we do everything that we can, there's a chance that things will change."

The Ice Princess looked at with a complicated look before saying, "You really are a strange one."

I just revealed a smile without saying anything else, but I did pick up the pace.

In the end though, the ones that were chasing us still caught up to us.

There was a difference in physiques in the first place, so it wasn't as if I would have escaped while carrying the Ice Princess.

These were two of the C Rankers that had been with our group.

When they ca through the woods, they didn't waste any ti in running forward to block us from moving any further.

Both of them had weapons in their hands and stood there in the way before one of them said, "You can leave if you leave her with us."

The Ice Princess knitted her brows when she heard this, but in the end, she still said, "Leave here and go. You don't need to get involved in this matter."

I just revealed a bitter smile as I said, "Would they actually let go now that I've helped you? The mont that I run off on my own, they'll just hunt down and kill to tie up any loose ends."

The Ice Princess knitted her brows even more, but she didn't deny this since she knew that I was right.

As she knitted her brows, I could feel her gripping my shoulder even tighter.

So I said, "I'm going to put you down for a second, is that alright?"

There was a trace of disappointnt that appeared in the Ice Princess' eyes when she heard this, but she gave a nod to show that she agreed with this.

I went over to one of the trees and set her down, which the C Rankers allowed to do.

But to their surprise, instead of running away, I pulled out a sword and faced them head on.

When the Ice Princess saw this, she had a shocked look appear on her face before she said, "What are you doing?"

I didn't answer this as I moved closer towards the C Rankers.

Both of them also looked at with surprised looks before one of them asked, "Are you serious? Do you really think that you will be able to do anything to us?"

I didn't say a thing, but I did take another step towards them.

Seeing this, the C Rankers gave a sigh before they moved towards with their weapons raised as well.
