Fourth Chapter Posted; There'll Be Another Around Ten, If I Can Manage to Write It. / Calm Your Master Down (5) ...
The rage within him even made Alfred want to rush forward and fight Qin Chu to the death, but before Alfred could make a move, he saw a figure flash before his eyes, and before he could react, Qin Chu had already appeared in front of the Elf King.
His right hand had somehow gotten behind Alfred's head and was now gripping it.
Immediately afterwards, Alfred felt as if his body had become a sandbag in Qin Chu's hands. He was lifted up slightly, and then with a thud, he slammed face down onto the restaurant floor.
Chirp, chirp.
The violent impact shattered all the surrounding tables and chairs into dust.
The broken glass was reduced to tiny shards.
A large hole was even punched through the wall.
Alfred's face kissed the hard ground, and countless cracks spread rapidly across the surface like a spider web.
Alfred's condition was even worse; traces of bright red blood could be seen seeping out from a patch of filth.
His body was like a toad that was about to be dried out by the sun, his limbs twitching incessantly.
Seeing that Qin Chu was about to attack again, Milo panicked, his heart aching terribly. "Hero, please have mercy!"
She hadn't expected that the Hero, who had just been so gentlemanly, would be so ferocious and thunderous when he started fighting.
He glanced at Alfred, then at Milo, whose face was full of worry, and couldn't help but feel a little regretful. "Princess Milo, to be honest, this filthy fellow is not good enough for you."
"However, I will give the princess this face," Qin Chu said quietly, taking a step back.
Milo was slightly relieved. He thanked Qin Chu and quickly went over to help Alfred up from the ground. His handsome face had become a terrible sight.
Extensive tooth loss.
Alfred, having just gotten up from the ground with Milo's help, suddenly shoved Milo away, his face, already contorted with blood and grime, filled with intense Wrath: "Get out..."
"You bitch."
Chapter Four is here. There will be another chapter around 10 PM, if I can finish writing it.
Chapter 433 Let Master Cool Down (5)
Alfred, who struggled to his feet with Princess Milo's help, felt utterly humiliated.
This man in front of her had stolen Sylph's virginity and was even betrothed to the princess by the king, while her assassination attempt had been completely ineffective; she had even been slapped to the ground by this man, leaving her covered in blood.
Countless bones in his body were shattered, and his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose were filled with blood; he was in a truly wretched state.
In the end, he even needed a woman's help to survive, which the proud Alfred found unbearable. He slapped Princess Milo away, perhaps knowing that Milo wouldn't hurt him. Alfred cursed at the princess who had just saved him from Qin Chu, "Pah, shameless slut!"
"Stop pretending to be a good person here."
"You've completely disgraced the Exeter royal family! You were betrothed to me by your father, yet now you're so intimate with another man? Or is this just your true nature—you can't live without a man?"
"You should be happiest now, right? You can openly and honestly be having an affair with your lover."
The unrestrained mockery humiliated Milo's dignity.
Milo's face was deathly pale, and his tall frame looked unusually small at this moment, trembling uncontrollably.
Although Alfred had always avoided her before, and even when they did meet, he was indifferent and unresponsive, this was the first time he had spoken so harshly to her.
Milo seemed startled by Alfred's appearance. He never expected that the usually gentle, refined, and handsome Elf King would hide such a side.
Seeing that Milo wanted to explain but was too shocked to speak, and his eyes were red, Qin Chu couldn't bear to watch any longer. He frowned slightly and took a step forward.
These subtle movements made Alfred flinch, glare fiercely at Milo, and then turn and leave.
Qin Chu did not pursue him, but flicked his finger, and a red thread silently landed on Alfred's body. Alfred only felt a pain in his shoulder, thinking it was from the injury Qin Chu had just given him, and did not pay any attention to it.
Qin Chu did not kill Alfred directly here, after all, this guy was still a king of a different surname in the Exeter Kingdom.
However, this does not mean that Qin Chu will let him live.
Upon hearing Athena's report, Qin Chu initially only intended to teach the guy a lesson, but now Qin Chu has decided to take his life.
For an elf, being corrupted by filth, their body becoming rotten and filthy, is probably more painful than being killed.
Most importantly, when Alfred completely transforms into a monster, Qin Chu will have a righteous and legitimate reason to deal with this guy.
"I'm sorry, Princess Milo. It's possible that His Highness Alfred misunderstood because I invited you to dinner. Should I go and explain things to him?" Qin Chu said, seemingly a little embarrassed. "I will definitely find a way to persuade him."
He clenched his fist and then released it; there are many ways to persuade someone.
Milo took a deep breath, her lips moving repeatedly. After a long while, she finally composed herself. Apart from her slightly red eyes, she seemed to have completely regained her original heroic and valiant princess appearance. "No, Hero, I should be the one apologizing. A small misunderstanding almost caused Hero to get hurt."
"Alfred acted impulsively; please don't take offense, Hero."
Aside from being a bit tall, he is a very qualified member of the royal family.
Qin Chu shook his head slightly and glanced at Milo again, his expression seemingly a little strange. Actually, if you ignore her tall stature and the fine hair on her skin, and only look at her face shape and figure, she's a pretty good girl.
"Your Highness, I would like to say it again, that kind of person is not worthy of you."
That's the truth.
Although Alfred was exceptionally handsome, Qin Chu felt that placing him next to Princess Milo was even a desecration of Milo.
That guy doesn't even deserve to be called a man.
"Are all members of the Exeter royal family who have reverted to their ancestral ways like you?" Qin Chu asked with some curiosity.
Milo paused for a moment, then immediately understood what Qin Chu was referring to, and shook his head with a wry smile, "No, I'm an exception."
"Just like your beloved Miss Sylph, although she is atavistic, only her ears show the characteristics of an elf."
"My second sister only has fox-like ears, and she also has a few extra tails. My third sister only has cat-like ears. My youngest sister is even more special. She is no different from an ordinary person in daily life, but she only takes on a Mermaid form when she goes into the water."
"Their atavism is only a small part, and it doesn't seem strange. In fact, it's quite cute. It's just that I'm unusually tall and covered in fur, so it's normal for me to be mistaken for a gorilla." Milo's voice sounded somewhat self-deprecating, which was really terrible for a girl.
That's true; atavism usually only affects a small part of the body.
It is indeed very rare to see someone like Milo whose entire body skin exhibits a primal state.
Could it be that something went wrong during the atavism process?
"Why didn't you consult a priest or doctor at the temple? Perhaps this is some kind of illness," Qin Chu mused.
Milo shook his head again. "Of course I looked, but everyone says it's a normal phenomenon of atavism, and my body is perfectly healthy!"
The eldest princess rubbed her head sheepishly. "She was frighteningly healthy. When she was three, she was being naughty and climbed to the top of the palace tower, fell off, but then rolled over and landed back up..."
"At first, it's just a very light layer of fine down that's almost invisible, but as the strength increases, the down becomes thicker and longer, and it grows back immediately the next day after being shaved off."
"They also grew taller and taller."
"I'm scared, so I stop practicing, but my physical strength keeps getting more and more exaggerated every day."
"I'm not afraid to tell you, but I haven't even practiced any Battle Qi or magic at all."
Qin Chu was shocked.
Although Qin Chu didn't sense any fluctuations of Magic Power or Battle Qi from the princess from the first time he saw her, he initially thought that Milo was hiding it very well.
But now it seems that Milo has never learned any Battle Qi.
So, Milo possesses such destructive power comparable to War God solely through his physical strength?
That's a bit scary.
If Athena possesses the strongest soul on the Skyvault Continent, then Milo will likely possess the strongest physical body on the Skyvault Continent in the future.
"Perhaps, in a few years, I might really turn into a hairy gorilla," Milo muttered to himself with a touch of melancholy, before lifting his head again to regain his spirits. "I seem to have been complaining the whole time."
"My Hero, your arrival is a great joy for the Exeter Kingdom. I must inform my father immediately so that we can properly entertain you. Why don't you come with me to the palace now?"
Qin Chu initially wanted to say there was no need to trouble himself, but then he thought that while Athena and the others might not be able to obtain useful information, the royal family naturally knew the Exeter Kingdom best. If they could find a breakthrough through the royal family, things might become much easier.
So this time, Qin Chu simply declined the invitation to the palace, said nothing else, quietly watched the princess leave, then tossed down a stack of banknotes and turned to go.
At the hotel.
Athena and Sylph also heard the commotion outside the shop, but they didn't pay it any mind.
After all, Athena's layers of low-intelligence surveillance showed that neither Alfred nor Tattle had entered the hotel... Alfred had appeared for a while, but had already left.
However, the two had only been asleep for a short while when they suddenly heard a knock on the door.
"Who?"
Sylph immediately sat up, instinctively assuming a fighting stance.
It's me.
The sound coming from outside the door made Sylph and Athena both widen their eyes.
Although I knew my master was petty, I figured he might appear in the Exeter Kingdom tomorrow after everything was settled. But I never expected him to appear in the middle of the night... It seems my master is even more petty than I imagined.
The two women exchanged a glance and could see the helplessness in each other's eyes. Athena gave her a look, and Sylph, without even bothering to put on her shoes, quickly went to open the door with her bare feet. Sure enough, Qin Chu was standing outside.
Although she hadn't done anything wrong, Sylph was still a little flustered, her eyes darting around. "Master, you came... you came so quickly."
"Yes, I'm quite worried about Jello's Soul Fragment. Since you haven't been able to find any clues, I came here myself."
Athena couldn't help but roll her eyes. Goodness, the excuse of "a fragment of Jello's Soul Fragment" can be used anywhere.
Qin Chu didn't care about any of that and casually told a lie, "I arrived in the first half of the night. Although I didn't find any clues about the Soul Fragment, I did encounter a handsome elf."
"His name was something like Alfred, the Elf King of the Exeter Kingdom. We had a friendly exchange."
Athena's eyes darted around, recalling the commotion outside, and Sylph quickly realized the same thing.
Could this so-called friendly exchange actually be the conflict that just happened outside?
Seeing that his master was completely unharmed, it must have been Alfred who got beaten up. This was to be expected; although the Elf King was quite powerful, he was no match for his master.
He'll probably get beaten to a pulp, his face turned into a pig's head, unrecognizable.
Moreover, given the master's personality, although he wouldn't directly kill a king of a different surname in the Exeter Kingdom, who knows what shameless means he might have used behind the scenes to secretly plant a thread of Evil God on Alfred, just waiting for Alfred to transform into a monster so that he could kill him in the future with a legitimate reason.
It has to be said that, as expected of a woman who has been by Qin Chu's side for many days, she really understands Qin Chu's personality.
Left with no other option, Sylph turned to Athena for help, hoping the clever Athena could come up with a solution.
Athena covered her mouth and chuckled softly, her gaze sweeping over the beautiful figure and delicate skin that even the pure white pajamas couldn't conceal.
The master is currently filled with rage.
Why not just let the master calm down? As for Athena, she will naturally help from the sidelines and won't let Sylph fight alone.
Sylph quickly understood this as well, her face filled with a charming smile. She helped Qin Chu sit on the edge of the bed, gently kneading Qin Chu shoulders with her small hands. "Master."
"I've been feeling unwell lately, it seems like those remaining Evil God's Threads are acting up again. Master, could you heal me again?"
Her beautiful body was pressed against Qin Chu's back, and her soft, seductive voice lingered in Qin Chu's ears.
Chapter Five is presented.
Chapter 434 The Hero Wants It All (1)
The most beautiful music in the world played in the hotel.
On the other side, the Elf King Alfred staggered away, his thin body casting a long shadow on the ground in the moonlight. His once neat and magnificent robes were now tattered and torn.
Her skin, whiter and more delicate than a woman's, was covered in dust and grime.
His handsome face, devoid of any masculine features, was covered in blood. Blood gushed from his nostrils, his ears were filled with scabs, and there were two bloody scratches at the corners of his eyes. Not to mention his mouth, half of his teeth had been shattered.
That handsome face, which had captivated countless noble ladies, was now in a sorry state.
His jewel-like eyes were filled with an intense, overwhelming pain. He was breathing heavily, and the events that had just occurred kept replaying in his mind.
Is that the strength of Hero? In his presence, Alfred's pride and joy are as fragile as soap bubbles, easily crushed into pieces.
A sword as swift as the wind and as fast as lightning can also move as slowly as a snail.
He could never forget how the man grabbed his head and, without him having any chance to resist, slammed him mercilessly to the ground.
Alfred trembled uncontrollably at the memory of that feeling of helplessness and powerlessness.
That kind of power was something he simply couldn't contend with, and it was a level he could never reach in his entire life.
The Elf King's will was weaker than imagined; a deep sense of sorrow and despair overwhelmed him. It was clearly impossible to snatch Sylph back from such a powerful man.
Haha, I'm really ridiculous, like a clown.
Enough, enough, let's give up.
