Book 5: Chapter 46: Regret

Kieran was desperate.

Surrounded by a blanket of white, this place would resemble an ethereal wonderland after filtering out the pungent smell of smoke. It was mysterious, dreamy and romantic.

Just picture how wonderful it would feel to hear the person you adore express their love for you in this enchanting setting. There is nothing more beautiful than two lovers in love, while on the other hand, there is nothing more painful than a one-sided love.

Not the kind in which your feeling is not reciprocated, but the type in which your admirer is an extreme pervert who wants to forcefully make you his and you are too powerless to resist him.

You can only watch yourself slowly falling into his clutches, becoming a mere object of his amusement and allowing him to have his way with you. You are even aware that he desires to engage in all sorts of thrilling, cruel, and indescribable activities with you.

Yet, you just can’t resist. Not only that, you are compelled to surrender yourself to him. This agonizing pain is unbearable.

People often say that one should embrace what they cannot resist. And when it comes to a stunning beauty, why not indulge and see where it leads? After all, there’s nothing to lose.

Kieran wished he could convince himself to think that way, at least it would alleviate the sense of hopelessness he was currently experiencing.

However, he could only do that if the beauty was really just a beautiful woman.

“Beautiful… I mean handsome… I beg of you, please let me go. If you do, I, Kieran, vow to repay you with the full might of our clan in the future!”

With a blissful smile on his face, Lacey opened his arms and waited for Kieran to come into his embrace, just like a mother watching her child take their first steps.

“Sheesh, beautiful. Do you have to be so polite after all this? Since you want to repay me, I don’t want anything, just give yourself to me.”

The corners of Kieran’s eyes almost split open. His bloodshot eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. He saw Lacey, who was now only a few steps away from him, closing his eyes and pouting his rosy lips in anticipation of a kiss.

“NOOOOOOOOOOO!”

Goddess of Light, Goddess of Darkness, Dragon God, whatever gods or deities that are out there, or even any skilled experts that are passing by, please perform a miracle! If you can protect my chastity today, then I, Kieren, will do anything for you!

Even if… Even if… it means I have to wear this maid’s dress for the rest of my life!

So… please show up!

“Take this, Dragon Flying Kick!”

A petite and familiar figure suddenly appeared through the smoke.

The wicked voice that resembled the sinister whispers of a demon sounded like a divine intervention to Kieran. Hot tears immediately gathered in his eyes.

Miracle. It’s a miracle.

“What?” Lacey turned around in a panic, instinctively assuming a defensive stance. The magic relic at his waist instantly activated, creating a barrier wall to block Lilith’s incoming attack.

Lilith’s kick struck the barrier, momentarily stopping her body in the air. Her molten gold dragon pupils blazed as she fixed her gaze on Lacey. In that moment, Lacey felt his heart constrict as if he was staring into the eyes of a fearsome ancient beast. His blood ran cold, almost freezing in his body.

Lilith was also stunned as she tilted her head and carefully examined her enemy. She couldn’t help but marvel at the existence of such a stunningly beautiful girl in the world.

This woman was only slightly inferior to the petite, lovely and beautiful Dragon Princess. She definitely had the qualification to look down on others.

Too bad for her, Lilith was not the type to show mercy just because her opponent was attractive. On the contrary, the flawless beauty before her face only fueled her desire to fight. Furthermore, after being surrounded by fog that was as pungent as the exhaust fumes from cars for so long, Lilith’s had been pushed to its limit.

“Pretty good-looking, I’ll avoid punching you in the face.” Lilith’s skin glowed with the luster of jade, amplifying the power in her feet.

Crack.

Lacey’s eyes widened as clear and visible cracks started spreading on the barrier.

“How… is it possible…?”

His magic relic could shield against the attacks of the low-rank Saint. He clearly did not detect any Saint Realm energy fluctuations from the blonde loli in front of him.

How did she manage to do that?

“Low-rank Saint?” Lilith snickered disdainfully, “What’s that?”

She was someone who had defeated a deity before. How dare anyone put emphasis on a mere low-rank Saint in her presence?

The barrier shattered.

Lilith propelled herself away from it. She supported the weight of her body with her arms and arched her slender waist as an immense power surged to her legs.

Although inherent power remained constant, the manner in which it was wielded through various techniques could result in a significant variance in its impact.

After experimenting for so long, Lilith finally figured out some basics of techniques, so now she knew more than just throwing punches and kicks.

“You better not die from this,” Lilith gently whispered and at the same time, lowered her body. Considering the proportions of her body, her relatively slender and long legs then delivered a powerful blow to Lacey’s chest.

“Wait, we can talk this out…” Before Lacey could finish his sentence or even make a shocked expression, Lilith’s legs had already vanished from his sight.

Crack. Crack.

The sound of bones cracking echoed through the air. First from Lacey’s arms that instinctively tried to shield himself from the kick, and second from his ribs. Like a fired cannonball, Lacey was propelled into the thick fog.

The fog rolled and swallowed Lacey. Shortly after, there was a deafening noise akin to the booming of thunder.

Lilith landed steadily on her feet. “Strange, that felt kind of odd. Is that woman also as flat as a pancake?” she mumbled as she shook her leg.

So, there were women flatter than herself in this world. How surprisin-… ahem, ahem, how normal.

She, Lilith, flat? She was still in puberty, so how could she be considered flat? Was there any three-year-old larger than her? Hoho, no, right?

With her newfound self-confidence, she turned to look at Kieran who was by her side.

“Are you alright, Kieran?”

“Lilith, you’re finally here!” Kieran sobbed.

“Huuuuh?! Wait, why are you looking at me like I’m your birth mother?” Lilith was surprised and instinctively took a few steps back.

“Let me warn you… If you don’t want to be the next person stuck in the wall then stay away from me! That snotty nose is disgusting!”

“Uh, sorry, I was too excited.”

Kierans is also aware that he was too rude, so he stops, and directly with the sleeve to wipe the uncontrollable tears, like a survivor of the disaster. His pride was long gone out of the window.

The state that Kieran was in gave Lilith some doubts.

“Did that person… do something to you?”

“I… I…” As soon as the person was mentioned, Kieran’ face turned a deep shade of red. After a brief moment of hesitation, he realized that he could not hide the truth any longer.

With a look of shame, Kieran confessed, “That person took advantage of me and tried to do… that kind of thing to me!”

Lilith raised an eyebrow. She did not expect her random guess to be right.

“Isn’t that good? She’s a gorgeous lady, you really got lucky, Kieran! Why the hell are you acting all depressed?”

Kieran looked like he had something stuck in his throat then finally whispered, “What makes you think he’s a woman?”

A shocked look crossed Lilith’s face. “You mean he’s male? A guy? With a d̲i̲c̲k̲?”

Kieran nodded imperceptibly.

Lilith’s eyes widened and she took a deep breath. That person with an exquisitely gorgeous face was actually a guy? What… What a pity!

Lilith pounded her chest, feeling the urge to slap herself.

“Why did I rush over here to beat him up! I should have stayed in the shadows and secretly observed them! I could have witnessed a magnificent tale of love and conflict, worthy of being called the greatest drama of the century!”
