Chapter 56: Prayer before bed "I am always by your side."...



Gladys wanted to tell Laura not to talk nonsense.

When did she punish Princess Laura with a kiss?

To save her reputation, Gladys quickly said, "No, don't talk nonsense."

"I didn't punish you with a kiss... The way you put it, I, the evil witch, sound like a horny pervert." Gladys was a little anxious.

Gladys responded with another kiss.

Laura's thin white hand lifted the back of Gladys' neck, and their lips touched. A kiss wasn't enough, so he pressed Gladys' lips and kissed her hard...

Laura licked Gladys' lips with the tip of her tongue.

Gladys's scalp almost exploded.

[Host, host, I understand!]

The system seemed to have just finished a remedial lesson, he belatedly explained to Gladys.

[The Love Sin Potion will have different effects depending on who uses it...

This is because after the user drinks the Love Sin Potion, although their love for the user disappears, new feelings will arise, making up for the bug where the memory remains even after the love disappears, and improving the logic... Different users will imagine different new feelings.

[Specifically, let's take the current situation between the host and Princess Lola as an example. Princess Lola kissed the host before because she wanted to express her love to the host.

But now, having drunk the Love Sin Potion, Princess Lola's love for the host has disappeared, so she will have a new understanding of the kisses she and the host have had, subconsciously believing that they were motivated by other emotions.]

Gladys felt a little uncomfortable. "...What kind of feeling?"

[It's probably... the feelings of a slave forced by you, the master.]

Gladys: "...According to your understanding, Princess Lola must have hated me but had to obey and kiss me."

The system hesitated: "That's probably it."

Gladys swallowed as Laura bit her tongue. Her conversation with the system was interrupted for a moment. A moment later... Gladys continued, "But it's strange, System. Some parts of your explanation don't make sense."

System: "For example? My explanation is just an analytical guess made by my program, and it may indeed be flawed."

Gladys's feelings were mixed. "I just wanted to drink my mushroom soup quietly. I didn't ask him to kiss me, but he kissed me for no apparent reason. And... I didn't feel like he was resisting me."

"His body is very honest..." Gladys's thoughts were interrupted again. She was pressed on the table by Laura, and his lips fell on her soft lips, rolling and absorbing the warmth of the girl's lips.

When the collar of Gladys's puffy skirt was torn open and a few small rhinestones on her shoulders broke off, Gladys felt...she could no longer let Laura go.

"Get up." Gladys pushed Laura.

The handsome man kissed her chin, and then he did get up... but with Gladys.

Laura pulled Gladys into her arms, bent down and kissed her neck. Gladys's fingertips trembled, and Laura held her hand in return.

The ambiguous panting sound silenced the system for a moment.

During this period of silence, the system pondered. It felt like a sage with immense wisdom... Then, the system excitedly said, "Host! I understand again!"

Gladys: "Speak!"

[Host, it's like this. I just looked through the instructions for the Love Sin Potion again. It says that there's a very small chance that using the Love Sin Potion will increase your Darkness value...

I used the database to check what this meant, and it told me that the blackening value comes from the love value. The higher the love value, the higher the blackening value.]

Gladys' heartbeat quickened, thump thump, and she said anxiously, "Wait a minute, don't tell me the little princess has turned evil."

[Yes, the host guessed correctly. The Love Sin Potion had an extremely rare effect on Princess Lola. It did not eliminate her love value, but instead increased her blackness value.]

Like a shopping guide, the system began to explain the whole process to Gladys in a mechanical voice with emotion.

[The predecessor of the Love Sin Potion was a punishment item or heartbeat item called the Eros Libra Potion. After using the Eros Libra Potion, there is a 50% chance of forgetting the love for the other party, and a 50% chance of turning evil, making it even more difficult to leave the other party (if evil is turned, the other party is responsible).

Later, a tasker tried to use the Eros Libra potion to eliminate the love of an NPC... After this method was popularized, the main god's prop research and development department simply upgraded the Eros Libra potion, turning it into a prop specifically for taskers to break away from the NPC they fell in love with.

In the process of upgrading the Eros Libra Potion to the Love Sin Potion, the prop production department has shortened the probability of the prop turning evil.

It can be said that the probability of turning evil is almost the same as winning the lottery, or even winning the lottery is not that difficult, and generally does not exist... In fact, it is even lower than the probability of the host encountering something like my system-bound book transmigration.]

After the system finished speaking, it looked at the host who was kissing it with an embarrassed look...

[So... in a sense, the host's luck is simply unprecedentedly great. The host can try buying lottery tickets after returning to the real world. However, by then, the host will have received the mission reward and will probably not care about the amount of lottery tickets.]

Gladys: "......" Damn!

Gladys felt that she was indeed the reincarnation of a non-African. Even such a low-probability event could cause her to encounter...

Gladys put on a mask of pain. She chose to exchange her entire family's lives for the love sin potion not to get the little princess Laura who fell in love with the evil witch but could not get her and turned evil.

This is very bad, thought Gladys.

This makes things even more troublesome, and the plot goes off track...

After hearing Gladys's thoughts, the system said to Gladys.

[Actually, the host can leave as soon as they complete the mission. As the tasker, the host's purpose is simply to make up for the bug that caused the evil witch to disappear. As for other matters... the Lord God told me that the host can completely ignore them.]

[Just kiss, the host can enjoy it once in a while.]

Gladys: “…”

Although according to the system, Gladys could have just walked away after completing the task without caring about Princess Lola's feelings, Gladys always felt that this would be a bit unfair to Princess Lola.

Little Princess Lola should have been a beautiful little princess surrounded by handsome men, spending every day in the battle between them... instead of becoming a man who likes a vicious and evil witch and is destined to be unable to get her.

Gladys will eventually leave this world. As an evil witch who can never be with Princess Lola... Gladys thinks it is necessary for her to get rid of Princess Lola's feelings for her.

But...it's okay now.

The love sin potion had backfired.

“…”

Gladys bit Laura's ear hard and finally got the chance to push him away.

Laura's black hair was messy, with a few strands of hair sticking to her cheeks, giving her a messy vibe.

Gladys pulled up her collar. Her collar, which was originally a cute doll collar, was now torn into a V-neck, revealing her collarbone and a small red mark on her neck.

The table and floor were strewn with tiny diamonds from her dress, reflecting a glittering light. Gladys looked around, then at the bowl of mushroom soup lying upside down on the floor, looking pitiful...

"The mushroom soup is all spilled..." Gladys frowned and her voice lowered.

Laura's eyelashes trembled, and she said softly in a hoarse voice, "My Lady Witch, I made a lot of mushroom soup... If you want to drink more, I'll serve you a new one."

Lola's tone sounded... a little flattering.

This...the power of the love sin potion is truly terrifying.

Gladys: "No, I suddenly have no appetite."

"Finish your meal by yourself. Remember to clean the floor and ignore me from now on." Gladys tugged at her collar and found that the clothes were in a terrible state. She directly cancelled the fashion effects of the puffy skirt and changed back into the mysterious and beautiful witch dress.

"Think about your life carefully and don't come near me. This is an order." Gladys said this coldly, then left the dining table and walked back to her room.

Gladys turned around and left, leaving him behind, not letting him get close... Laura's heart felt like it was being grabbed by a hand, giving it a hard squeeze.

Black branches and leaves emerged from under His robe, and they were surging with excitement... Just now, Laura suppressed them and prevented them from coming out, and they were almost suffocating.

The sound of Gladys's door closing could be heard...

The black branches and leaves are surging...

Laura stood among the black branches and leaves. He touched his red lips with his fingertips. The black branches and leaves spread, hooked his arm, and moved close to his ear.

The rustling sound is strange...

"I understand." After a while, Laura said lightly.

"It does affect my sanity... If she's scared of me, that's not good."

The dark light of divine power passed over Laura's body, and the effect of the love sin potion disappeared.

His eyes became somewhat calm, but the crimson on his pale skin did not dissipate... Laura looked at Gladys's door, thoughtfully.

The system told Gladys that the effects of the Love Sin Potion could not be removed.

[The Love Sin Potion is a very special item. Its core ingredient is divine power, or rather...

The core material of all items produced by the system is divine power, but the Love Sin Potion, as a rare item, contains even more divine power. Ordinary people cannot reverse the effects of the Love Sin Potion, which contains a large amount of divine power. Princess Lola is just an ordinary human...

Furthermore, due to the special nature of the Love Sin Potion, there is no antidote. This is why you must think twice before using it, and why a huge price is required to redeem the Love Sin Potion.]

Gladys was silent.

She sat with her hands on her chin, thinking.

Seeing Gladys showing a hint of melancholy... the system asked carefully.

[Host, do you need me to help you check what Princess Lola is doing?]

Gladys: “No thanks.”

Gladys thought for a moment and said, "I think it's best for me to keep my distance from Laura for the next two days."

"Since the effects of the Love Sin Potion can't be reversed..." Gladys held her chin up in her hand, "Then I can only pray that the mission is completed quickly so I can leave and avoid making any mistakes going forward."

Based on this idea, Gladys planned to engage in a cold war with Princess Lola.

She didn't see or talk to Princess Lola until her fishes came to rescue her.

But... just as night fell, little Princess Lola came uninvited and walked into Gladys's room.

Gladys sat on the bed, hugged her pillow tightly, and immediately became alert.

"What are you doing in here? Didn't I order you to ignore me?"

Laura: "I'm here to warm the bed for Her Majesty the Witch."

Gladys immediately said, "My bed is a single bed. It can't fit two people."

Laura took out a quilt and pillow and placed them on the ground next to Gladys. "Then I will keep watch for Her Majesty the Witch."

Gladys: "..." He is really well prepared.

Laura made a bed on the floor next to Gladys.

While he was making his bed on the floor...Gladys was torn between "sending the little princess away" and "happily inviting him to spend the night."

But it must be said that Laura's choice to sleep on the floor instead of sharing a bed with her evil witch...made Gladys feel a little less nervous and alert.

Gladys glanced at Laura quietly. The man's hair was draped on the pillow, and he looked very obedient.

"System, are you sure that Princess Lola's blackening value is very high?" Gladys asked in her heart.

[In theory, yes... but I can't measure the exact amount. I don't have the ability to measure favorability and darkening values.]

[Does the host want to drive him away?]

After the system finished speaking, Gladys secretly glanced at Laura again.

Laura closed her thick long eyelashes and fell asleep.

"Forget it... This is one of the few times we spend together. If you insist on sleeping with me, that's fine." Gladys turned over and muttered to Laura with the back of her head.

Laura's eyelashes twitched, and she didn't ask Gladys why she said that the time they spent together was limited...

He knew her perfectly.

He didn't speak.

Gladys didn't care about Laura's response.

Princess Lola, whose love for the evil witch has turned her into a dark state, would rather not respond to the evil witch.

Gladys lay on her side on the bed, looking out the window. The moonlight was dim and a little hazy, making Gladys feel sleepy.

[Host, don't fall asleep yet. You forgot something.] The system reminded Gladys with a mechanical voice.

Gladys: "Hmm? What's going on?"

[You need to pray and check in before going to bed.]

Gladys: "..." Oh, yes, she almost forgot about her evil god husband.

When Gladys was teleported back to the tower and was worried that the evil god would come to settle accounts with her, the system told Gladys that she didn't have to worry about the evil god catching her. According to the laws of the gods, Gladys was a tasker protected by the Lord God. As long as she completed the task, Gladys would be teleported back as a tasker and would not be caught by the evil god.

This reassured Gladys.

Moreover, Gladys thought, according to the efficiency of the gods, if they wanted to capture her, they would have done so long ago. It is impossible for them to wait until night without any movement.

but......

This doesn't mean Gladys wants to check in and pray with the evil god...

What if He didn't catch her just because He was busy lifting the seal and forgot about her, a little ant?

And when she prayed to Him, wasn't she telling Him blatantly that your Queen of Gods was still alive, and to come and catch her?

"I don't want to punch a clock," Gladys said. "System, a person must have backbone. I can't be tamed by a prayer clock."

System: "It's not a question of whether clocking in will tame you, but if you interrupt clocking in, the Wicked Witch's character will collapse, and the main quest will be impossible to complete."

Gladys: "...In that case, I won't sleep. I'm going to hold on until the day after tomorrow."

[While this is a good idea, based on the host's physical condition and energy level, the host will not be able to stay awake until the day after tomorrow and may easily collapse and pass out.]

[Also, the host's energy is very low... he must rest and recover.]

Gladys: "But I really don't dare to pray to Him. System, do you have any props that can help me?"

System: "Host, your current witch crystal coins are zero. Even if you have props, you can't use them."

Gladys: "..."

She hesitated for a while.

Just as the system said, Gladys' body was really tired and she was very sleepy...

She wants to sleep...

I really want to die...

As her sleepiness grew stronger, Gladys felt that nothing in the world was more important than sleep. No one could stop her from sleeping, not even the gods...

If He stopped her from sleeping, she would call Him a stingy little bear biscuit.

After being tortured by sleepiness...

Gladys thought boldly, isn't it just praying and checking in?

She praised him flatteringly, could he still be angry?

And...she could use this prayer check-in to explain (fool) Him, to prevent Him from misunderstanding her escape, so that she could live peacefully until the day after tomorrow.

So, Gladys took a deep breath, calmed her mind, and picked out the longest rainbow fart from the system's prayer material library.

Gladys clasped her hands together, looked at the moon high in the sky, and prayed to Him devoutly in her heart.

The tone was sincere and the expression was moving, so moving that it was enough to make one cry.

"You, the Supreme One, are the only light in my life..."

"You are extremely handsome, you are tolerant and powerful, you are the protector of the dark creatures..."

"It is my life's blessing to be your believer..."

“…”

"Now, let me talk to you about something personal. I know you're listening..." Gladys pursed her lips and continued to speak to Him in her heart, "My leaving you was an accident. I had something I had to take care of. Only when I've dealt with my affairs can I return to be your Queen with peace of mind. So please don't be angry."

"I know that you, my ancestor, are a magnanimous person. You will surely forgive my little willfulness, right?"

"Two days is just a hair's length for you..."

"And, on the other hand, getting married suddenly is still a bit exciting for me. I still need time to calm down..."

Just as Gladys was about to continue her nonsense, an elegant laugh suddenly sounded in her mind, "Gladys, are you sure you will be my Queen? Do you agree?"

The system immediately shut up and trembled with fear.

He responded to Gladys...

Gladys rolled her eyes and replied mentally, "Sure."

"Once I finish my business the day after tomorrow, I can be at ease as your Queen of Gods." Gladys said sincerely.

By then she will be able to complete the main task and return, and of course she will feel at ease.

He asked, "You are not lying?"

Gladys: “No.”

He paused, then said slowly, "Gladys, I can read minds. Have you forgotten?"

Gladys: “I haven’t forgotten.”

The response in Gladys's mind was silent for a moment, as if surprised by Gladys's self-righteousness.

“You are so bold…” He said slowly.

Gladys said frankly, "I know you probably heard that I'm just a tasker working hard to complete the task."

"You should also know that I will be leaving the day after tomorrow, so do you think I am just kidding you about the Queen of Gods?"

He paused and said, "Yes."

Gladys: "But I'm telling the truth. Only after I complete the main quest can I be at ease as your Queen."

"After completing the main quest, I will be teleported back to my own world. This is a fact and something I cannot change." Gladys said with reason.

"Both of these things are true. I'm not lying. So, even if I suddenly leave at that time, please don't think that I'm deliberately running away without permission."

He was silent for a long time.

then......

He said, “It doesn’t matter.”

"Gladys, I can accompany you."

Gladys:?

Gladys: "...How can I accompany her?" Is it possible to catch up with her when she returns to the real world?

"I can be by your side, using Princess Lola's body."

Gladys was stunned for a moment. She first thought... His method doesn't work. Princess Laura is not from the real world.

Then... Gladys's expression changed, and she said with a hint of dissatisfaction, "I really can't help it. I have something to say to you."

"You actually want to take over Princess Lola's body? You're too cruel! Do you know that Princess Lola is being tortured by the Love Sin Potion right now? She's already pitiful enough, and she really can't bear the consciousness of an evil god any longer."

Laura: "..." How did she use the correct theory to get the wrong answer.

He said, "No, Gladys, I have no intention of occupying Princess Laura's body."

Gladys: "I heard what you just said clearly. It's irrefutable evidence."

"And...why do you have the exact same face as Princess Lola? This is too much of a coincidence. I don't believe there's no conspiracy behind this."

He paused, then said with great conviction, "This is because I am Princess Lola."

Gladys:?

Gladys blinked. "Wait, what did you say?"

Gladys won't react immediately...

This was within Laura's expectations.

Lola continued, "The evil god you believe in, the little Princess Lola you mentioned, is me."

Gladys: ???

Gladys swallowed and subconsciously turned her head to look to the side.

You should know...

Little Princess Lola was lying on the floor next to her.

Gladys was a little bit skeptical of the evil god's words.

So... Gladys kept thinking that as long as she saw the weak little Princess Lola lying quietly and sleeping beside her, innocent and well-behaved, she would be able to prove that what the evil god said to her was just a trick on her.

However, Gladys saw—

Lola, who should have known nothing about the evil god, stood up. His expression held a look of divinity that could not be desecrated. As his golden eyes looked over, an indescribable sense of darkness came over him.

He tore the wizard's robes open, making them loose and messy... and they fell off his body.

The man's pale and thin body appeared, and black branches and leaves spread out, outlining a divine robe.

While Gladys was stunned, a black branch hooked around her wrist.

He curled his crimson lips, his golden eyes deep and beautiful.

Laura smiled and said in a bewitching tone, "Gladys... No, my Queen of Gods, do you believe what I say?"

Gladys frowned and struggled desperately, "Did you just occupy Princess Laura's body all night long?"

Laura: “…”

He said slowly, "No, from the beginning to the end, Princess Lola has always been me."

"I look the same as Princess Laura, because we are the same person..."

Gladys's expression changed, "But..."

As if she could tell what Gladys was about to ask, Lola said directly, "You saw Princess Lola and I appear before you at the same time because I can separate my spiritual consciousness."

"I am a god, why would I lie to you?"

His tone was calm.

"My Queen of Gods...will you continue to deceive yourself?"

Gladys said nothing.

Gladys needs some time to come to terms with this shocking truth...

It turns out that the beautiful little Princess Lola... doesn't exist either.

The black branches wrapped around Gladys and pulled her towards Laura.

"Gladys, this is the last thing I want to say to you."

He lifted her waist.

"I'm always here for you."
