Like a stray kitten that had lost its only toy and been abandoned by the world.
Master...
Had actually examined someone else's body just now, too.
He was no longer the one and only.

One hand slowly emerged from beneath her skirt.
Her other hand still held her prayer beads.
"Greatly merciful and compassionate Bodhisattva, your believer... is in hell. I cannot stand by and watch Master be stolen away. Besides, I still have to dispel Master's killing intent."

She had certainly played the crown prince successfully. The problem was that she had been too successful.
She could accept being targeted by the demon, but she absolutely could not accept that she had actually developed feelings for him.
