Winnie had possessed the ability to bewitch people's minds since childhood.
She knew this gift of hers very well.
As a princess of the empire, she had brainwashed every subordinate around her and held them under complete control.
She had ambitions of becoming the empire's empress, but the current emperor had used those miraculous coins to obtain treasures from some adventurers that could obstruct her brainwashing.
Left with no choice, she had decided to take things slowly, coming to the front lines to defeat the Goblin army and build her reputation.
When the fortress fell and those miraculous coins were used to summon adventurers, she had already entertained this idea from the very beginning.
The older adventurer had clearly been influenced by her. That meant her power could definitely affect these adventurers.
She just needed to try a little harder.
With that thought in mind.
Princess Winnie walked up to Ye Qiyan and greeted him with a smile.
"Hello, mighty adventurer. Thank you for your help. For the empire, you have..."
With his lifeless eyes wide open, Ye Qiyan looked impassively at the rather old and not particularly attractive princess before him.
[Spirit: 72 (Witness Truth and Falsehood)] [Brainwashing? Spirit disparity too great. Negative effect nullified.]
What was this woman trying to do?
Brainwash him?
It wasn't the wide-area encouragement from before, but targeted brainwashing.
She wanted to control him?
She really had a death wish.
The Raven Demon beside Ye Qiyan walked over carrying a snakeskin sack. As though sensing something, it let out a chilling, piercing cry at the woman.
"Caw-!"
Thud-
Princess Winnie's eyes rolled back, and she collapsed to the ground.
Was she dead?
Not quite. She was merely in something like a vegetative state.
"What an idiot. She actually tried to brainwash me."
