Chapter Three, twelve thousand words delivered. / Chapter 571: Do You Still Want to See Jello?

Qin Chu's voice wasn't loud, but it was cold and eerie.

A night breeze blew by, and the clear, cold sound sent a chill down one's spine.

He didn't torture Rosweisse's body, nor did he beat or hurt this woman, but the direct impact of his words on her mind was even more exaggerated, more cruel, and more unbearable for Rosweisse.

The beautiful girl's golden eyes suddenly turned gray and empty.

It was as if her soul and her will had been completely emptied out at that moment.

"It seems you finally understand. Before you left the Imperial City, everything you did was in vain. You were just clinging to a dream that could never be realized, chasing after a hope that never existed."

The indescribable pain caused Rosweisse's body to convulse uncontrollably.

Her abdomen seemed to be churning violently, and she could hear dry heaving sounds coming from her throat. She stretched her neck out as if she wanted to vomit, but nothing came out.

She tried to scream, but no sound came out.

Seeing Rosweisse's appearance, Qin Chu's sense of pleasure grew stronger and stronger.

Rosweisse, could you have imagined that one day you would end up like this?

Nothing is more despairing than having your burning hope suddenly dashed.

Be sad, be in pain, be in despair.

Your pain and despair will become my most delicious food!

Qin Chu opened his arms, a slight smile playing on his lips, letting the cold night wind wash over his face.

At this moment, Qin Chu felt relaxed and happy.

At this moment, anyone who saw this would think that Qin Chu was the real villain, while Rosweisse was simply an innocent girl being bullied.

Qin Chu was completely indifferent to this comparison. After a long while, he finally opened his eyes and looked at the woman in front of him, who was trapped in despair and pain. Qin Chu seemed to feel that this was not enough.

As I recall everything I experienced in my first playthrough, the amount of emotion I once invested fuels the intensity of my current hatred.

This woman was the culprit who caused his death in the first playthrough.

It was this same woman who, in her second life, was still single-mindedly trying to kill him.

Now, it's time for this woman to pay the price.

Rosweisse continued to writhe and convulse on the ground like a worm. The former saintess, whose clothes were once worn but always kept clean, was now a complete mess.

Tears streamed down his face, mingling with dust from the ground, leaving his face filthy.

Her mind went completely blank, and she was utterly immersed in indescribable pain.

The pain was so intense that it even numbed Rosweisse.

She felt as if all her strength had been drained away, and she just lay on the ground, breathing desperately in a morbid way. The air she inhaled seemed to carry countless tiny shards of ice, piercing through all of Rosweisse's internal organs.

That once beautiful face was now contorted in a grimace.

Her once beautiful eyes now seemed to have turned into smooth stones; though still beautiful, they had lost their original luster, becoming empty and dull.

A gloomy aura enveloped Rosweisse, like a layer of somber gray mist.

Finally, Rosweisse seemed to have digested Qin Chu's words. She finally understood what had happened. The pent-up repression and pain in her chest could no longer be held back at this moment. Her cherry lips parted, and with a "plop," a mouthful of bright red blood spurted out.

Her pristine white saintly robes were stained with specks of crimson, like plum blossoms in the dead of winter.

"Aaaaaah..."

The mournful cry tore through the night sky, like the cuckoo weeping blood.

Unfortunately, here, no one will shed a tear upon hearing this.

Right behind Qin Chu, Little Saya probably learned about Qin Chu's past experiences from Big Saya, so she wasn't surprised that Qin Chu used such cruel methods to torture a woman.

Atris, on the other hand, was horrified by Qin Chu's methods.

Since following Qin Chu, Atris had thought Qin Chu was a very nice gentleman to women, but now Atris discovered that Qin Chu also had such a ruthless side.

Sylph, Ekaterina, Athena, on the other hand, had cold and gloomy expressions.

Although they were former teammates, they didn't feel much pity for Rosweisse.

After all, just now, Rosweisse even tried to kill Ekaterina and Athena. They weren't the kind of saintess who couldn't bear to see people cry; they didn't have that much compassion.

In this world, when someone wants to kill you, you have the legal right to kill them, no matter how bad the means.

Qin Chu took a deep breath, his smile unwavering, "Rosweisse, I know you're determined to resurrect Jello, and you love that man... I understand."

"But why did you kill me?"

"If all you need is my blood, you can just tell me directly, and I might be able to provide it. Is killing me the only way?"

From the very beginning, Qin Chu was full of doubts about this.

He didn't understand why he had to die.

The Resurrection Spell only requires one's own blood, not one's own life.

Rosweisse's mournful cries did not stop; she seemed not to have heard Qin Chu's voice at all.

Qin Chu simply chuckled, unconcerned about the situation. With a wave of his hand, a vortex of wind swept across the magic circle, and all six remaining Soul Fragment returned to Qin Chu's hand.

Weighing the rather pretty-looking stone in his hand, Qin Chu slowly picked one up with two fingers.

Click!

A Soul Fragment shattered between Qin Chu's fingers.

The fine dust particles drifted away with the wind.

The sound of the Soul Fragment shattering, though faint, reached Rosweisse's ears clearly.

The sound made Rosweisse's body tremble violently as if she had been electrocuted. The next moment, her face, covered in blood mist and tears, turned towards Qin Chu, just in time to see the scene of the Soul Fragment turning into powder and scattering from Qin Chu's fingertips.

That scene caused Rosweisse's body to tremble violently.

"No... no no no no..."

Screaming almost frantically, Rosweisse had no time to care about her appearance. With her long hair disheveled and her face filthy, she crawled on all fours towards Qin Chu like a dog.

Those are fragments of Lord Jello's Soul Fragment.

That was the last thing Jello Geralt left in this world.

Rosweisse absolutely could not stand by and watch these things be destroyed before her eyes; they might be the last glimmer of hope remaining in Rosweisse heart.

Even if there aren't enough Soul Fragment, even if we can only collect a remnant soul, it's still good.

Qin Chu crushed Jello's Soul Fragment, a process that caused Rosweisse even more pain and despair than directly crushing her heart.

She wanted to pounce, but her body suddenly stopped in place, because Qin Chu had grasped another Soul Fragment in his palm.

"Tell me, why must you kill me? Can't you just take my blood?" Qin Chu asked again in a low voice.

Rosweisse's gaze was fixed on the small crystal between Qin Chu's fingers, her expression becoming somewhat neurotic. Hearing Qin Chu's question again, Rosweisse merely grinned strangely, her expression sending chills down one's spine. "Why should I let you live? In this world, there can only be one Hero."

"Only Lord Jello is the true Hero, and you... are not worthy."

Since things had already come to this point, Rosweisse no longer bothered to hide anything and let out a slightly mocking laugh.

Moreover, two tigers cannot share one mountain.

In the Skyvault Continent, it's impossible for two Hero to exist. Just as she was single-mindedly focused on killing Qin Chu, in Rosweisse's mind, Qin Chu would absolutely not allow the existence of the First-Generation Hero. He would never cooperate obediently and would even try to sabotage her.

In that case, killing Qin Chu is the only option.

Is it hard to understand?

Moreover, Qin Chu, a mere nobody, dared to instigate the title of Hero and despicably steal the identity, status, and glory that rightfully belonged to Jello... For this alone, Qin Chu deserves to die!

From the very beginning, Rosweisse had no intention of letting Qin Chu live, it was that simple.

It's just that I Fate unlucky and became the ultimate loser.

Qin Chu let out a long breath, rubbing his forehead wearily. What a ruthless woman! Was she really going to kill him just for this reason?

He simply smiled at Rosweisse, a smile that sent chills down Rosweisse's spine, and a bad premonition instantly spread through her.

Rosweisse's eyes widened instantly, screaming as she tried to stop him, but to no avail. With a snap, Qin Chu tightened his grip on her two fingers, crushing the second Soul Fragment at Qin Chu fingertips.

However, Rosweisse dared not move, because Qin Chu had already grasped the third Soul Fragment in his fingers. Her gaze was filled with endless, intense resentment as she stared intently at the man in front of her, as if she were looking at a terrifying demon.

Qin Chu understood what Rosweisse was thinking; this woman was in pain and despair.

However, her will and her spirit did not completely collapse.

A glimmer of hope still kept Rosweisse's consciousness alive.

What Qin Chu had to do was crush even this last glimmer of hope into dust.

"Rosweisse, let me guess what you're thinking..."

"The Resurrection Spell failed."

"Jello cannot be resurrected."

"But you won't give up so easily. In your heart, Jello's existence surpasses everything else. Even if Jello can't reappear in front of you, you still hope that even just his soul will do its best to reunite Jello's soul."

"Even if this soul is incomplete or broken, you don't care at all, as long as there is some existence that allows you to sense Jello, you can accept it all, right?"

"And to do this, a certain reliance is required, and in your opinion, a fragment of Jello's Soul Fragment is indispensable."

"You might suspect that Jello's remnant soul exists among these Soul Fragment, and you want to find a way to lure these remnant souls out."

"You might suspect that there's some connection between these fragments and Jello's remnant soul, and that using these fragments could help you find Jello's remnant soul."

Guess what I'll do now?

Rosweisse was frightened.

I'm really scared.

This man's cruelty was far more outrageous than she had imagined, and it seemed she had already figured out what Qin Chu wanted to do.

She shook her head frantically, trying to stop what was about to unfold before her eyes.

No, don't.

Snap...

"No! Ahh..."

Snap!

"Please, please, don't do this, please don't..."

Snap!

The sound of the crystal shattering was drowned out by Rosweisse's screams.

But the seemingly faint sound was exceptionally clear to Rosweisse's ears. Each cracking sound was like a dull knife, painfully slicing a piece off her soul.

Rosweisse had even lost the ability to maintain her pride.

She pleaded desperately, hoping that Qin Chu would leave her with just the last shred of hope.

But Qin Chu, at this moment, displayed absolute ruthlessness...

No, Qin Chu wasn't that kind of heartless man. At least with the girls around him, he was gentler than anyone else. But Rosweisse, she didn't deserve it.

As if Rosweisse were standing beside an Abyss, the sound of each Soul Fragment shattering was like an invisible force pushing her from behind, drawing her closer and closer to the endless darkness.

She no longer cared about saving face, watching as the last Soul Fragment appeared between Qin Chu's fingers.

Rosweisse immediately bent her knees and knelt before Qin Chu. She lowered her proud head and pleaded in a nearly hoarse voice, "Qin Chu, please, please don't, let him go..."

"Don't you like women? I'll be your woman."

"I'm pretty good-looking, right? Right? Right...?"

Chapter 571 Do you still want to see Jello?

(4,000 characters)

As long as Lord Jello's last Soul Fragment can be preserved, even if it means offering her own body and enduring Qin Chu's humiliation and torture, Rosweisse can endure it.

She was willing to give everything for Lord Jello.
