Chapter 199: Chapter 179 Enchanting Demon’s Encounter
——Bone dragons are predators!
Wu Xiaode suddenly realized.
He immediately initiated a Mind Link, "Christina, go back to hell right now!"
"Ah? But I’m currently explaining the soil composition of the Undead Kingdom—"
"Go back immediately!"
"Alright."
As the words fell.
Wu Xiaode gestured with his hand.
The Book of the Dead appeared in front of him.
Only 13 seconds remained.
Two lines of ice crystal letters emerged on the page:
"Death Messenger, Frost Damage and Sleeping Wings, Silent Secret Leader, Dragon of the End have appeared."
"It’s about to start feeding!"
Wu Xiaode put away the book and grabbed Rotten Bone.
——He couldn’t wait any longer.
"What’s wrong?" Rotten Bone asked, puzzled.
"The trial is over," Wu Xiaode said solemnly.
"But the bone dragon hasn’t bestowed us with various skills yet," Rotten Bone said, spreading his hands.
Wu Xiaode shook his head, his mind moved, ready to activate the Chi Xiao Sword Spirit’s "Magpies Return Path."
"Don’t rush, Little Wu."
The Sword Spirit’s voice suddenly resonated in his mind.
"What’s wrong? If we don’t leave now, we might get eaten by the bone dragon," Wu Xiaode said.
"Wasn’t your commission to save your world?" the Chi Xiao Sword Spirit said.
"Yes," Wu Xiaode said.
"What you need to do has just begun. Wait a while longer," the Chi Xiao Sword Spirit said leisurely.
"Wait for what?"
"Wait for it to eat you."
...
Elsewhere.
Christina gently landed and stood on the dark street.
She’s back!
This was the world of the Enchanting Demons!
She sighed softly, and her body shook slightly, the school uniform disappeared instantly, replaced by the previous black leather bodysuit, stockings, long whip, and high heels.
This trip earned her well over a thousand gemstones.
A truly great harvest.
If that young man could survive the bone dragon, she would still seek him out.
Did he stand a chance?
His swordsmanship was strong... but he was still far from matching the bone dragon.
She hoped he would succeed.
Christina exhaled, suddenly noticing there weren’t many people on the streets.
"Huh? Where did everyone go?"
She spoke in surprise to herself.
Suddenly, a shadow cloaked in a black cloak emerged from the Void.
"Christina, go to the Queen’s palace. All Enchanting Demons must gather there,"
——This was a magic servant of the Queen!
"Yes, may I ask what has happened?" Christina asked respectfully.
"The Queen is choosing candidates."
"What kind of candidates?"
The magic servant looked at Christina with meaningful eyes, "Recently, the Queen has decided to pick a few personal attendants to stay by her side and receive her teachings directly."
Christina was startled and quickly said, "I’ll head there right away."
"The ceremony is about to start, I’ll take you there," the cloaked shadow said.
It gently tapped the Void.
Transporting runes immediately appeared around Christina and in the next instant—
The world spun around.
Christina looked around and saw that she had arrived at a square inside the palace.
The entire square was crowded with Enchanting Demons.
Christina looked left and right, immediately recognizing many famous High-level Demons.
The air vibrated with the fluctuations of various spells.
Clearly, some had already exchanged blows.
When Christina appeared, quite a few gazes swept over her.
But as a newly born Enchanting Demon with only a mere 30 points of Soul Power, she wasn’t a threat in the eyes of these powerful beings.
Once they confirmed she was harmless, those powerhouses quickly shifted their gaze away.
Christina also behaved wisely.
She subdued her aura and quietly moved to a corner.
There was no way to compete.
It was too bad.
——This was an opportunity to become a confidante of the Queen. If she had enough strength, she would definitely vie for it.
Being a confidante of the Queen was equivalent to gaining a prestigious authority, constantly staying by the Queen’s side, following her teachings.
Such an opportunity was once in a lifetime!
Christina sighed, feeling a bit frustrated.
Admittedly, she was outstanding among her batch of Enchanting Demons, but she was too young.
If—
If she had been born earlier and had advanced her strength more quickly, perhaps she could have seized this opportunity!
As she was thinking, a soul-stirring voice suddenly emanated from the palace:
"Hmm, it seems everyone has almost arrived."
"Let’s begin."
"My subjects, if you want to follow me, you must bring forth your strongest Charming Skill."
"Show me your strength before my eyes."
"Whoever captures my attention, will be successful."
"Begin!"
As the Enchanting Demon Queen’s words fell, the square immediately erupted with towering spell fluctuations.
Every Enchanting Demon put forth their full strength.
Christina clenched her teeth, feeling it was a pity to give up just like that, and swung her arm.
Indeed.
Her talent was decent, and she had mastered the advanced Charming Skill: Blossoming early.
Now was the time to use it!
Just as she was about to utter the spell, she noticed a blonde Enchanting Demon nearby who had already completed the Blossoming spell.
Spectacular rainbow wings instantly flashed on both sides of that Enchanting Demon, radiating a dazzling brilliance that highlighted her seductive and enchanting allure.
——This was at least a level 50 spell capability!
Christina’s gaze darkened, she withdrew her hand, ready to recite another spell.
Not long ago, she had spent all her savings on a secret Charming Skill:
Rose’s Thorns.
Employing this move during a kill was like courting, leaving the enemy thinking you were pleading when, in fact, you were about to claim their life in the next moment!
Just as Christina was about to snap her whip, she saw on the other side, a high-level Enchanting Demon over level 90 swinging her whip, chuckling, "This is my rose..."
The whip in her hand suddenly dispersed, turning into a sky full of crimson petal rain.
The Enchanting Demon stood amidst the rain of petals, twisting her waist, her figure seemingly harmonizing with a certain rhythm, gently dancing.
Perfect!
Even if she tried with all her might, she couldn’t achieve that level.
Because her Soul Power was not enough!
Christina sighed, forced to give up performing.
Was there really no opportunity at all?
She looked towards the square and saw that every Enchanting Demon there was showcasing their signature abilities.
Every Enchanting Demon was striving to display herself fully.
Even those younger than her were not to be outdone, performing the basic Charming Dance.
...With so many people, who would the Queen actually notice?
Wait!
The Queen’s condition was, whoever drew her attention, would be deemed successful.
This meant, one didn’t necessarily need to perform the Charming Skill.
The key was to attract her attention.
A sudden thought flashed through Christina’s mind.
The image of that young man emerged again in her mind.
He was folding his arms, examining her with a discerning look, shaking his head and saying,
"I have some life experience here that could help you project a positive youthful image..."
"...Nice introduction there, without using any Charming Skill. I’ll have a gemstone reward for you when I return."
A positive youthful image.
Without using any Charming Skill.
That’s it!
All the Enchanting Demons were desperately releasing Charming Skills, desperately showcasing themselves.
But what were these magic techniques in front of the great Enchanting Demon Queen?
They were absolutely trivial!
She was the strongest Enchanting Demon, why would she condescend to notice these techniques?
If everyone was releasing these techniques, then to attract her attention—
Christina’s thoughts shifted.
The black tight suit, mini skirt, and stockings on her body all disappeared.
In their place, a baggy pure cotton uniform, the front emblazoned with "School X", while the back read "Practicality, Innovation, Exploration, Advancement".
This look was not revealing at all!
Christina then adjusted her hair and makeup, making herself look utterly natural.
Then she just stood there, quietly not moving.
She neither released any Charming Skills nor posed seductively, nor did she put on any alluring appearances.
She just stood there.
She appeared so pure, like a newly blossomed faint orchid.
On the entire square, her attire and image set her apart from all the Enchanting Demons, clashing with the pervasive atmosphere of decadence.
The next moment.
"Oh?"
An interested female voice arose in the hall.
Christina suddenly felt a faint noise erupt in the square, the ripples of spatial fluctuation slowly dispersing.
In an instant, all the Enchanting Demons vanished.
On the entire square, only she remained, utterly alone.
——What is happening?
Christina was somewhat at a loss.
A female voice emanated from the grand hall:
"Come forth; let me have a look at you."
Only then did Christina realize what had happened.
Everyone else had been transported away,
leaving only herself!
This was——
It was——
The Enchanting Demon Queen had chosen her!
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Christina tried hard to suppress the excitement in her heart and stepped forward into the grand hall.
Many powerful beings stood in the grand hall.
Some were not of the Enchanting Demon race, some were the queen’s servants, and some were Magic Lives.
All of them focused their gaze on Christina.
By now, Christina had calmed down and paid no mind to these powerful beings as she walked straight to the throne and knelt on one knee.
The Enchanting Demon Queen’s face was veiled lightly, her body entirely enveloped in a dark cloak, not revealing any part of herself.
Yet she was so captivating.
A thought suddenly emerged in Christina’s mind.
——How I wish to follow by the queen’s side forever, to serve her!
"Ah, too young. It seems I must rein in my power a bit," the queen spoke softly.
The next instant,
the thought in Christina’s mind disappeared.
One moment nearly mad with zeal, willing to give everything; the next, even the thought was gone.
A flicker of fear crossed Christina’s mind.
She had been so close to becoming an Eternal Servant of the queen.
"Thank you for your mercy, Your Majesty."
She quickly expressed her gratitude.
"Mm, you did well just now, quite original. You grasped the true essence of Charming. However, if you wish to stay by my side—"
"Do you have enough money?"
"Money?" Christina repeated.
"Yes, scars are not the measure of one’s bravery or prowess in battle as they might also be indicative of defeat. Only money—"
"It can prove that you secure a minimum victory," continued the Enchanting Demon Queen lazily: "At least it proves that you do not have to live your life for it; you have ample freedom to pursue the true Way of Charming."
Christina inwardly cried out in relief.
If it had been the day before,
she would have been penniless.
But today, she had become a documentary host!
At that moment, feeling blissful, she reached into her belongings and brought out a black pouch, presenting it with both hands:
"Your Majesty, this is a small token of my appreciation, for you."
"Oh? What would a Level 30 Enchanting Demon offer? I can guess..." the queen said dismissively with a wave of her hand.
The black pouch opened.
Over a thousand gemstones, pure and flawless, floated mid-air, glimmering with dream-like ripples of light.
The entire grand hall was illuminated like a fairyland by these spectacular gemstones.
Such gemstones, even if placed in any world, would surely be considered treasures.
——These were from the collection of Demon God Ulysses!
