Fill it up...

Fill it all up...

Semus was captivated by a mad desire, using his "regeneration" talent to make a comeback time and time again.

Falling, rising.

He guided her along the line of all violations, helping her heal all her wounds and soothe all her discomfort and unbearable pain.

But she deliberately left ambiguous red marks.

He liked that she bore his mark.

That means he truly possessed her, and that they shared an intimacy that no one else could match.

They spent several days together.

The moment Shen Zhiyi fainted again, Samus embraced her and kissed her brows and eyes.

Looking at her exhausted face, countless complex emotions welled up in my heart.

Resentment, hatred, love, pity, jealousy, possessiveness...

All of this merged into madness, surging within his heart.

He thought of what she had said—that the engagement with Leo was fake—and his mind stirred slightly.

“Princess, stop lying to me…” He brushed aside her sweaty bangs and kissed her thin eyelids. “As long as you’re willing to stay by my side, as long as you say you love me, I’m willing to do anything for you…”

"Stop thinking about leaving."

She loves power, so he will offer her power.

As long as he's the one who stays by her side in the end, as long as he's the only one in her eyes, he's willing to give anything for it...

Shen Zhiyi mumbled as she rolled over, wrapped her arms around his waist, and subconsciously buried her head in his chest, complaining, "Samus, this stone slab is so hard, it's killing me... Be gentle..."

Samus was deeply shaken.

He looked at the arms wrapped around his waist, and at her trusting and dependent expression as she slept, and his heart melted as if it were soaking in a honey pot…

He rolled over, pulled her into his arms, and used his body as a cushion for her to sleep comfortably.

As he stroked her hair, he looked up and surveyed the cave.

He had laid out the softest animal hides, but the cave was still simple, carrying the most primitive atmosphere.

She was a princess, raised with a life of luxury and privilege.

Naturally, one would prefer magnificent decorations, luxurious and soft bedding... to have servants at one's beck and call, and money to squander.

Everything here is indeed unworthy of her.

Samus frowned in thought, a glint of light flashing in his narrow eyes.

...

Royal palace.

Shen Xiya gripped a knife and slashed wildly in all directions.

"Kill them all...kill them all!"

"You all want to harm me...you all want to harm me!"

Katarina walked over and angrily said to the maid, "Why is she still like this! I told you to send someone to check on her, but where have you been?!"

The maid curled her lip. "Your Majesty, very few of the nobles and members of the royal family are willing to listen to us anymore."

"Especially since they found out about your theft of orc energy, they're already threatening to attack the royal family."

If it weren't for the Queen's guards, they might already be dead.

She is the only one still willing to stay in the royal family and serve the Queen.

"Useless...useless!" Katarina was furious and slapped the maid. "Who are you to comment on what I do?!"

"A bunch of arrogant fools!"

The maid covered her face and knelt on the spot, crying.

She somewhat regretted not leaving with the others...

When Shen Xiya saw the jeweled crown on Katarina's head, her eyes suddenly flashed with resentment.

"You vicious woman...you stole my things...you don't even deserve to be my wife?!"

"The treasure is mine, and the throne is mine too!"

She lunged at Katarina in a frenzy, reaching out to tear off her crown.

"Ah—!!!" Katarina screamed, shoving her hands away and tearing at her hair. "You madwoman! Let me go!"

They started fighting.

Shen Xiya accidentally cut Katarina's arm with the knife in her hand.

She cried out in pain, both shocked and furious, and immediately grabbed Shen Xiya by the neck!

"Wake up!"

"What are you all standing there for?!" Katarina turned to her maid and said, "Quickly, call the guards! Tie up the second princess!"

"Yes, yes!" The maid stumbled away.

Shen Xiya's eyes rolled back as she was being pinched.

She was having trouble breathing and was struggling to move her arms and legs.

Out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught sight of the throne high above, where Samus was sitting leisurely.

He was dressed in a jet-black suit, his face pale and gloomy, yet his features were striking and captivating.

His broad body leaned lazily against the throne, one hand supporting his chin, watching them as if he were enjoying a clumsy farce.

Those golden pupils remained completely calm.

Like the Grim Reaper.

Shen Xiya suddenly felt an overwhelming fear.

Her eyes widened, and she screamed silently.

With a burst of strength from who knows where, he shoved Katarina aside and charged at Samus with his knife in hand!

"Die...die!"

"You're the one who deserves to die the most!"

Pfft—

The dagger pierced Samus's heart with pinpoint accuracy.

Shen Xiya was stunned for a moment, then a twisted and gleeful smile bloomed on her face.

Hahahaha!

She drew her dagger.

The smile froze instantly.

There was no gushing blood, nor any painful groans.

The fatal wound healed rapidly before her very eyes, returning to its original state in the blink of an eye.

Even the dress was completely intact.

It was as if everything that had just happened was an illusion.

Shen Xiya raised her head in a daze.

He met Samus's indifferent gaze.

He didn't even change his posture; his cold, golden eyes gleamed with a detached, indifferent light.
