Could I Be in Love with Him? (1)

Saya seemed to have finally suppressed her shame, and her expression became somewhat solemn. "The blood that Wadsworth gave you and the blood that the Demon King Nag gave me in the Demon King's Palace are the same substance."

"But their origins are definitely different."

This is normal. Both Wadsworth and Nag the Demon King would naturally guard this thing closely after discovering it, and would absolutely not allow anyone other than themselves to approach it.

"Do you remember the information you received from Phil before? A thousand years ago, War of the Gods, the gods fell, and the Strongest Evil God was split into eight, scattered throughout the world."

Qin Chu understood what Saya meant.

The Demon King Nag and Wadsworth may have somehow found a part of the Evil God that was split into eight parts a thousand years ago—it could be the head, an arm, or the torso. The blood they collected was from the Evil God's Remnant Body.

Of course, it may not necessarily be the Eighth Evil God; there are other strange possibilities, and it could even be the remains of a native god of the Skyvault Continent after his fall.

"Then, do you remember the heart recorded on the Soul Fragment of the Second-Generation Jello?"

Qin Chu's eyes narrowed slightly.

The enormous heart that the Second-Generation Jello encountered had been removed from its body many years ago, yet it was still beating.

Although the Second-Generation Jello was a scoundrel, it was still a body modified by the Evil God, with a recreated consciousness and soul, and its strength was undeniable. However, the moment it saw that heart, it instinctively felt fear and turned away.

This heart must also be filled with an extremely terrifying power.

Excitement gleamed in Saya's eyes.

If my speculation is correct, and that heart truly is the heart of a god, and originates from the same source as the blood collected by Wadsworth and the Demon King Nag, then it is equivalent to possessing an inexhaustible supply of energy that can be absorbed at will.

By then, it won't be long before she recovers to her strongest state... no, even stronger than the strongest Dark Witch of the past.

At that time, she could stand confidently in front of another Saya Nicholas, point at his nose, and say triumphantly: You're the imposter, call me sister!

"Hey, Qin Chu, don't you want to go take a look?"

"It's going to be really interesting."

At this moment, Saya Nicholas seemed to have truly acquired a bit of the demeanor of Witch, her voice filled with seductive charm.

On the other side.

Carlos has returned to his residence.

Thinking of the humiliation he had just suffered, a ferocious light flashed in his eyes, and his handsome, sunny face seemed to be twisted into a grimace, exuding a chilling aura.

That damned woman dared to call him a baboon? How could he possibly compare to a baboon?

No, it's not that a baboon can compare to him! I'm so angry I'm speechless.

And that bastard Qin Chu, he did the same thing with Natia before, and now he's trying to steal her away again? That bastard, he's definitely doing it on purpose.

Judging from the situation, Qin Chu probably already slept with Natia, right? Maybe he's even taking a bath with Saya Nicholas in a hotel right now?

Various images flashed through Carlos's mind, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he became.

That bastard, what kind of bullshit Hero is he?

Does the Skyvault Continent need another Hero like you? Give me enough time, and I Carlos, can easily wipe out these mere Magic Creature.

This world has no need for Hero.

He wished he could tear Qin Chu to pieces, and he wished he could torture those two blind women in front of Qin Chu.

With a snap, the sword hilt in his hand couldn't even withstand Carlos's Wrath and was crushed into pieces.

"It seems I've arrived at the wrong time; Lord Carlos is quite angry right now." Just then, a charming voice suddenly came from behind.

Carlos's expression suddenly changed, and he turned around abruptly, only to see a beautiful woman appear behind him, dressed in a pure white, holy saint's robe.

That familiar, beautiful face—who else could it be but Rosweisse?

She was still Rosweisse, but even though she was wearing a saint's robe, she didn't exude any holy aura at all; instead, she radiated an astonishing charm.

Like a whirlpool, it tried to devour Carlos, even giving Carlos an urge to kneel before the woman and kiss her shoes.

In his mind's eye, Carlos even felt that what he was seeing was not a saint, but Succubus.

But Carlos was no ordinary person; he quickly composed himself and became increasingly vigilant.

Rosweisse's strength is about the same as his, so why is it that Rosweisse is able to approach him silently without him noticing?

Was it because he was consumed by rage, or... had Rosweisse's strength increased significantly?

"So it's Your Highness, the Holy Maiden. You've come to see me for something?" Raising an eyebrow, Carlos's face regained its sunny and radiant expression.

Rosweisse smiled alluringly, "I just think, perhaps we can join forces."

"What good does this do me?" Carlos laughed.

"Of course, you can get what you want, for example... Miss Natia."

Rosweisse wasn't in a hurry, and slowly said, "Without my help, you'll never get Miss Natia. Natia seems to be deeply in love with Qin Chu."

"Don't even think about defeating the Hero, Carlos. Your strength is nothing compared to Qin Chu 'Qin Chu. Without my help, you're no match for him. He could kill you like killing a dog."

A flash of anger crossed Carlos's eyes. "And what about you, Your Highness?"

"Of course I can get what I want, such as... Hero."

Inside the imperial palace.

Athena has returned.

Violet sat quietly on the back of the sofa.

Sylph sat in a chair with one leg crossed, exuding a boss-like aura. Despite the presence of Qin Chu in the hall, she seemed completely unconcerned about the possibility of being exposed.

Norma, Heloise, and Angelica sat quietly together.

Antasia and Ieta stood quietly to the side with their arms crossed.

Ekaterina leaned against the cabinet, her arms wrapped around the heavy sword.

Even Antia had awakened, still bound in chains, standing quietly behind Qin Chu, clearly Qin Chu most loyal guard.

"Athena, how's it going on your end?" Qin Chu asked Athena.

"Rosweisse knows of a place where Soul Fragment might exist in the Mormor Kingdom, and she wants me to investigate," Athena replied.

Qin Chu nodded. "Then you and Sylph should go together; it's safer with more people."

Athena nodded slightly, feeling a warmth in her heart. Whether it was just a formality or something else, Qin Chu still cared about her.

Sylph was somewhat reluctant. Compared to going to other kingdoms, Sylph preferred to stay here and receive Qin Chu's treatment, as there were still many threads on her body that had not been removed.

However, since this was Qin Chu's request, Sylph wouldn't refuse even if she was unwilling.

"Violet, Norma, Anjie, Antasia, you all stay in the palace and don't go anywhere."

Searching for the heart was not something Qin Chu could accomplish in a short time, so Qin Chu needed to make meticulous arrangements before leaving.

Violet originally wanted to travel with Qin Chu, but Qin Chu had Antia by his side, whose strength was in no way inferior to hers, so there was probably not much to worry about.

Staying at the palace would put Qin Chu at ease.

"Ekaterina, you stay with Rosweisse. If there's any movement there, please let me know immediately."

Ekaterina nodded.

Qin Chu sent another message to Candice and Saint Monica, making some arrangements.

After making all the preparations, Qin Chu left the palace with Antia, Heloise, and Ieta.

However, Qin Chu did not notice that there was another pair of eyes watching them from outside the palace.

It was none other than Saya Nicholas they had parted ways with earlier.

The scarlet eyes gleamed eerily in the moonlight.

Chapter Three is here. Many thanks to Feng Guo Qiuye for the 1,500 coins and to Hun Xia for the 1,100 coins. Thank you for your support.

I'm so sorry, only three chapters today. Something happened today that really upset me, and I just can't write anymore. Even my editor and readers in the group advised me to take a break, otherwise the quality of what I write will be terrible. I'll rest today, and I'll resume five chapters a day tomorrow.

Chapter 354 Do I Like Him? (1)

Saya Nicholas found his own reaction somewhat puzzling.

She didn't understand why she cared so much about Qin Chu, this Hero. After all, although the identity of Hero was very important, that was for humans and Magic Creature. To her, Witch, she didn't really care what kind of Hero he was.

Whether humanity sees hope, or this Hero will be torn to pieces by the Demon King Nag, just like the First-Generation Hero, remains to be seen.

Whether this world is ultimately ruled by humans or manipulated by Magic Creature, it makes no difference to Saya.

My sole purpose in leaving the Demon King's Castle this time was to find out which bastard dared to impersonate me and swindle people everywhere. After entering the Imperial City, I had an additional objective: to investigate who had set a trap for me and subjected me to unprecedented humiliation.

Saya wasn't stupid; although she had never experienced it before, she still had the necessary knowledge. The thought that she, still a pure and innocent woman, had been the first to experience that kind of pleasure filled Saya with unbearable shame and indignation.

The hatred she felt for that bastard who dared to humiliate her was even deeper than that for the guy who impersonated her and swindled people.

She suspected that the person who had humiliated her might be the mysterious Horus.

Regardless of the fact that these two things are the most important to her, why is it that after meeting the Hero, she feels a strange attraction to this man?

It was as if countless invisible threads were connecting her to the Hero.

A gentle smile.

Handsome face.

A keen awareness of one's own preferences.

A gentleman who never pesters or pesters, but always knows exactly what to do.

Every move she made seemed exceptionally charming.

Compared to that baboon next to him, who's even more foolish than a clown, he's infinitely superior.

Poor Carlos was subjected to another round of ridicule without his knowledge.

Could it be... that I like him? That I fell in love with that man at first sight?

A strange thought suddenly popped into Saya's mind, but Saya quickly shook her head and said it couldn't be like that. After all, when she thought of that man now, she felt more suspicion than a racing heart.

But there is no doubt that this man left a deeper impression on her than any other man.

Saya Nicholas admitted that Qin Chu was a very outstanding and charming man, but... this couldn't explain where that inexplicable sense of familiarity came from. Moreover, what made Saya even more strange was that there were plenty of outstanding and charming men in the world, yet this was the first time she had ever felt such intense curiosity about a man.

It was this curiosity that ultimately led Saya to find out the Hero's residence again after their separation, and to quietly lurk near the palace, wanting to figure out what it was about Qin Chu that truly attracted her.

Unexpectedly, they witnessed the Hero leaving silently under the cover of night with several girls.

Surrounded by so many beautiful girls, is this Hero really just like other powerful and influential men in the human world?

Saya Nicholas was somewhat displeased, and his opinion of the Hero lowered.

After a brief hesitation, Saya Nicholas followed after them. The Hero and Hero women beside him were all quite strong, but that was all.

For Saya, who has already surpassed the limits of humanity, as long as she doesn't actively reveal herself, none of those women can detect her presence.

Watching the Hero silently traverse the Imperial City, eventually even crossing the city walls and leaving the Imperial City, they were amazed.

This made Saya Nicholas somewhat suspicious. What exactly was this mighty Hero planning to do? Why was he doing it so secretly?

Saya Nicholas grew increasingly curious and quickened his pace slightly.

As the Hero and their companions were quickly swallowed up by a forest, a strong magical fluctuation suddenly emanated from within the forest, and in the next instant, the four Hero vanished.

Saya Nicholas's crimson eyes narrowed slightly, and his body flashed through the night sky, instantly appearing where the Hero and the others had disappeared. His brows furrowed, and his expression became even more solemn.

Some magical fluctuations still lingered in the air.

This is... Spatial Teleportation Magic Array?

The Dark Witch was exceptionally familiar with this Magic Power fluctuation, as she herself used it frequently.

If it were just ordinary spatial power, Saya Nicholas wouldn't be so shocked, but this Spatial Teleportation Magic Array was a magic she, the Dark Witch, had developed herself.

She never taught this magic to anyone, so how did the Hero master it?

In that instant, Saya Nicholas's curiosity and suspicion towards Qin Chu reached an unprecedented level; this Hero was simply too strange.

However, it seems the Hero was unaware that he was being followed, nor was he aware of a characteristic of this Spatial Teleportation Magic Array.

Under the moonlight, Saya Nicholas's eyes appeared even more crimson.
