The One Who Fell into the Trap

"Those two women are so annoying!!"

Weijia stared resentfully at Mina and Fina's retreating figures, the little flower in her hand already torn to shreds.

"Weijia, don't be angry."

Beside her, another girl whispered words of comfort.

"They're just maids; Andrew and Jiesi won't be swayed by them, they're just..."

"Even if you speak well of them, it won't make a difference, Lika."

Weijia shook her head in dissatisfaction, interrupting her friend. She pouted and began to grumble.

"Why should we be with these stinking mercenaries and merchants? Why can't we just go home with the book and save ourselves the trouble?!"

"This is Mr. Dick's arrangement, Weijia."

The girl called Lika wasn't angry and continued trying to persuade Weijia. She knew very well that her friend, though kind-hearted, was also quite proud. In fact, even Lika herself wasn't entirely comfortable with what had happened. After all, when they were out sightseeing, these noble youths had showered them with praise, comparing them to stars in the sky and solemnly swearing that no one was more lovely and beautiful than them. But now the tables had turned; the praise that should have been directed at her was now being bestowed upon others. Anyone would feel resentful under such treatment.

"Don't worry, these merchants are just traveling around, so we'll part ways with them once we reach Blackwater City..."

"Hmph, I don't care about those businessmen, and those two annoying women! They're absolutely awful!!"

Weijia complained indignantly; clearly, Lika's words of comfort seemed to have no effect on her.

"Of course you don't need to worry. Your brother wasn't taken from you at all, so what do you have to worry about? Honestly, I wish I had a brother like you!"

"This..."

Faced with her friend's question, Lika blushed slightly and lowered her head. She didn't know what to say. In truth, she was indeed proud to have such a brother, which was why she wanted to comfort her friend. But now it seemed to have no effect. Lika wasn't stupid. As the daughter of the Grand Duke, she had received excellent political education from a young age. She understood, of course, that the reason the adults had tacitly allowed them to go on this trip was to strengthen the bonds between them. After all, the Grand Duke had long ago revealed his intention to arrange marriages with the families behind these individuals. The union of allies always strengthens political alliances. Her father had also told her about this and hoped she could get along well with these people. This hunting trip was precisely for this purpose. In fact, nobles always had various social interactions and exchanges, large and small, all for the sake of such a future.

In fact, the hunt itself was very satisfying—until they encountered this caravan.

Although Lika and her brother had subtly expressed their dissatisfaction to the two men, they seemed completely unconcerned about their opinions, leaving Lika feeling helpless, and her brother seemed to have no better solution.

"I don't think so. They must be infatuated with those two women. Humph, I'd like to see what's so great about them...!"

Just then, Weijia noticed Mina heading into the woods, and one of the two noblemen immediately followed. This made her scoff disdainfully, and then she jumped off the carriage.

"Wait, Weijia, what are you planning to do?"

"I'm going to see what kind of methods that slut uses to seduce them."

"But if you do this, Mr. Dick will..."

Before Lika could finish speaking, Weijia had already followed Mina and the young nobleman into the woods. She hesitated for a moment, then sighed helplessly and turned her gaze to another girl who had been silently standing beside her.

"Seriously, what do we do now?"

"It would be good to let Weijia go and take a look..."

The girl only answered somewhat reluctantly when Lika spoke, though her spirits were clearly low.

"Besides, I don't think there's any danger here."

"Really..."

Lika shook her head. She had originally planned to discuss what to do next with her brother, but after thinking for a moment, she changed her mind. After all, this was just a matter between girls, and it was really inappropriate to let a man get involved.

Weijia entered the woods, seething with rage. The man showering the female swordswoman with sweet words was none other than her fiancé. Although they weren't officially engaged, both sets of parents had long harbored feelings for them. Weijia herself was a beautiful girl and naturally yearned for marriage. But now, her fiancé, who had once proclaimed he would "only love you, take care of you, and stay by your side forever," was acting like a leech or a stray dog, fawning over a maid. What kind of behavior was this?!

When Weijia first entered the woods, she was driven only by anger. But as she walked, the young woman sensed something was amiss. The entire forest was eerily quiet, unlike any other place inhabited by humans. She couldn't see the woman or her fiancé either, which surprised and frightened Weijia. She anxiously gazed into the depths of the forest, then looked back at where she had come from, considering whether to go back and settle scores later—but the low chanting that bound her body made such a choice irrelevant.

"Looks like our trap did catch a lost little rabbit after all."

Li Lin walked out slowly, with his usual gentle and composed smile, and bowed slightly to Weijia.

"Hello, beautiful lady."

"Who are you?! What do you want?!"

Weijia stared at the man before her, feeling a chill run down her spine and a deep fear. She screamed desperately, trying to get Dick's attention so he could protect her. But her voice didn't carry; what should have been a loud scream became a barely audible murmur. Li Lin watched the girl with amusement, flexing his fingers.

"You don't need to know my name, um... as for what I want to do, you'll find out soon enough."

"You, do you know who I am?! How dare you treat me like this?! My dad won't let you get away with this!!"

"I don't think so."

Angela reappeared silently, and the moment Weijia saw her, anger and fear immediately flashed in his eyes.

"The master's skills are excellent."

She opened her fan to cover her mouth, and said to the girl with a chuckle.

"I assure you, you won't have the heart to tell anyone... Master, have you already decided to take her?"

"If we do that now, someone will definitely find out..."

As he spoke, Li Lin made a gesture, and soon a light blue barrier enveloped the three of them.

"We monks have a better way."

As Li Lin chanted, the girl was shocked to find dozens of dark tentacles emerging from beneath her feet. They spiraled upwards, clinging tightly to her skin, immobilizing her, and began to move further. She screamed in surprise, but no sound came out. The power of magic had stripped her of her ability to move and her voice. The girl could only feel the cold, viscous tentacles burrowing under her clothes and slowly crawling over her body. She was terrified, but completely powerless to stop or escape it all.

"What... what exactly do you want to do...?"

"I have some questions to ask... but unfortunately, I need to do some preparatory work first."

As he spoke, Li Lin lowered his head again, looked at Angela with a questioning expression, and Angela nodded affirmatively. So Li Lin could only shrug helplessly.

"Okay, hopefully this will work."

Then, he made a few gestures, and the light of magical runes flashed on the back of Li Lin's hand. Magic Power characters reappeared, arranging and combining to form new magic. Immediately, Li Lin stretched out his hand and pointed forward, and a faint white light shot out from his fingertip and entered the girl's body.

Weijia's mouth dropped open almost instantly; she felt an unprecedented shock to her body. Powered by magic, waves of intense pleasure crashed over the young woman, making her feel like a small boat in a raging storm. Li Lin's magic amplified Weijia's sensory feedback and heightened her sensitivity. Combined with the intense impact of the magical energy, this was an unbearable stimulation for a girl who was still unmarried, a virgin, and had never experienced the joys of love. Although "Forced Orgasm" was a low-level spell that couldn't be used openly, it could still have a very good effect if used properly.

Before long, the girl's body was completely paralyzed. If it weren't for the black tentacles still holding her up, Weijia would probably have collapsed to the ground like a lump of mud. At this moment, her eyes were lifeless, staring blankly at the sky. Her body, which had long since exhausted its strength in the raging waves, would occasionally twitch a few times, indicating that its owner still had consciousness, but Weijia was now almost completely unable to react.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

Looking at the girl whose sanity had been completely destroyed, Angela chuckled softly. She stepped forward, reached out her two small hands, and cupped Weijia's cheeks, making her look into her eyes.

"Alright, bitch, it's time to answer the question..."

Its bright red pupils began to flicker, radiating a bewitching and eerie light.

Tell me your name, and your identity...

"I... my name is Weijia Stina, I am... I am... the daughter of the Finance Minister..."

"Very good, Weijia..."

Angela slowly approached her, her laughter as clear and melodious as a bird's song.

Tell us, which of you is the Grand Duke's daughter?

"Lika... Lika Jesse Moore... she's my good friend..."

"You don't seem to like her?"

Li Lin quickly noticed that something was off about Weijia's tone, which piqued Li Lin curiosity. When Li Lin asked her questions, Weijia stopped answering, clearly hesitating... However, Angela didn't let her hesitate for long.

"Why?"

The red light in Vijaya's bloodshot eyes intensified. Gazing at that ray of light, Weijia's mind, which had been nearly blank due to pleasure, gave up its last resistance.

"Because she's a slut, a whore!!"

She spoke harshly, seemingly completely unconcerned that she was talking about her best friend.

"That damned sow, who does she think she is? Every time we go out, all the men only look at her. Why? Just because she's more noble than me? More beautiful than me? Has a more capable brother than me? Why? I'm her friend, but that bitch only uses me as an accessory! With me by her side, she seems even more beautiful and smarter. And I seem even more stupid and ugly! Why? What's the difference between her and me? If it weren't for Father's orders, why would I be friends with such a hateful slut!"

She roared and vented her anger. Li Lin's magic had left her physically and mentally exhausted, and Angela had finally torn away her last shred of reason. Now, the demon of jealousy, which had been hidden deep within the girl's heart, had completely swept over her body, controlled her soul, and become its master.

"Every time I hear her say she likes me, I feel incredibly disgusted. She acts like she's saying 'I like you' to her dog! Am I just her pet? Am I just here to make her happy? Why? Why!?"

Under the combined influence of magic and the Vampire Species, the darkness deep within the girl's heart was amplified without limit. What was originally just a small complaint had now transformed into a raging torrent of anger. Even so, this surprised Li Lin. After all, in his daily observations, this girl was always inseparable from Lika, close and affectionate. No one could have guessed that such evil was hidden deep within her heart.

Angela watched Weijia's expression, excitedly stuck out her tongue and licked her lips, then turned around and smiled at Li Lin.

"Master, I like her very much."

"It seems we have indeed found a worthy target to exploit."

Li Lin nodded in agreement with Angela's opinion, then he intensified his magic and continued to inquire.

Do you know what secret she has?

"A secret...? Lika's secret..."

Weijia hesitated and remained silent, but the magnified evil deep within her had already influenced her thinking. Unconsciously, the girl had come to regard those magnified paranoia as reality. However, subconsciously, Weijia still treated Lika as a friend. She hesitated and wavered; this time, it was clearly difficult for her to say it.

Li Lin waved his hand slightly, and the illusory black tentacles immediately disappeared under his movement. The girl felt the comfortable and satisfying feeling on her body quickly fade away, which surprised her so much that she raised her head and looked at Angela and Li Lin in front of her with a puzzled and uneasy gaze.

If you don't want to say, I won't force you.

As he spoke, Li Lin twirled his fingers, and that feeling of pleasure returned to the girl's body, only to vanish again just before she was about to experience complete ecstasy.

Let's stop here.

"No, no, please don't do this..."

Trembling, Weijia gritted her teeth. She still wanted to savor that heavenly feeling, that blissful abandon of almost everything. But Li Lin's actions filled the girl with immense fear and dread. She trembled as she reached out her hand...

Ultimately, the desire for happiness overcame loyalty to her friend, Weijia slowly lowered her head.

"She... she loves her brother..."

He whispered the secret he had kept hidden for so long.
