Chapter 287: Chapter 179: Beautiful Miss, you don’t want to become a monster like Karsas, do you? (1)

Qin Chu pinched her pointed, smooth chin.

This action, for Silph, an Elf with a penchant for cleanliness, was nothing short of sacrilege.

A trace of anger appeared on Silph’s face as she forcefully shook her small head, breaking free from Qin Chu’s palm and glaring at him, "Show some respect."

It was the first time she had been treated in such a disrespectful way. When she was with Lord Jie Luo, he was always polite, and Qin Chu’s fingers only made Silph feel nauseated.

Her scalp tingled.

She vigorously wiped her chin with her small hand, especially thinking about how this hand had touched Catherine in various ways before, which made her feel even more disgusted.

Qin Chu was not angry, only leaning slightly backwards.

Silph pursed her lips, struggling to control her emotions, "What exactly do you want?"

"I’m plotting to murder the Hero? Haha, what a joke."

"Do you have any evidence? The things you just mentioned probably won’t count as evidence."

Seeing Silph stubborn here even amused Qin Chu a bit.

"No, Miss Silph, you’re wrong. Don’t you understand? To plot against a Hero, you don’t actually need concrete evidence. As long as there’s suspicion, motive, and some clues that can lead to you, that’s enough to sentence you to death," Qin Chu replied with a very confident tone.

"Because the Hero is just too important to the Sky Dome Continent. Before the demons are eradicated, there can’t be any mishaps with the Hero."

"Especially now with the Evil God corrupting this world, the importance of the Hero has increased significantly. Moreover, the Hero has just saved so many Nobles under the pressure of the Evil God, he is a being admired by everyone and is an envoy of the Holy Light Goddess..."

"As soon as the incident earlier gets out, Silph, I am very certain, you’re definitely dead."

Silph instinctively clenched her small fists; she really wanted to punch Qin Chu’s malicious face hard, but she knew that if she did, there would be no more room for negotiation.

Qin Chu did not shout out the news immediately, which meant he wanted something from her.

As for what that something was, Silph had a guess in her mind.

Was it that she, like Catherine and Asina, would be indiscriminately abused by the Hero?

Qin Chu didn’t care about Silph’s thoughts and chuckled, "And not only will you die, but even the former Hero Team members will be affected."

"The First Generation Brave as well."

"They will wonder if there’s something wrong with the First Generation Brave for choosing members of the Hero Team who are all scoundrels. Just when a Death Knight appeared, here comes a Ghost Shooter, is this ever going to end?"

"What exactly is he aiming to do? What are his purposes? Does he even want to save the Sky Dome Continent?"

Silph’s face turned suddenly pale.

She wasn’t afraid of death, but she couldn’t accept bringing shame upon Lord Jie Luo because of her.

What was most important was that it might cause the entire plan of the Hero Team to fail, resulting in Lord Jie Luo never being revived.

She couldn’t bear such an outcome.

Biting her silver teeth, after a brief hesitation, Silph removed the sexy and form-fitting archer leather armor she wore, revealing her voluptuous and lovely figure.

Her beautiful eyes shut tightly:

"Do whatever you want to do, just hurry up..."

It was nothing more than a desire for her body; giving it to him was no issue.

As long as it didn’t affect Lord Jie Luo’s revival, she could bear any consequence. Perhaps having Catherine and Asina go before her made this decision not too difficult.

In this brief moment, Silph found it hard to think of any way to stabilize Qin Chu, and Qin Chu probably wouldn’t give her a chance, right?

However, Silph underestimated Qin Chu.

In the Hero Team, Silph’s personality was absolutely the worst; she was selfish and arrogant, conceited and foolish.

She was as selfish as Rose Vesper but lacked Rose Vesper’s cunning; as arrogant as Ronald but without Ronald’s vigilance; as haughty as Asina but without Asina’s intelligence.

Apart from a nice skin, she was almost good for nothing.

Even though Silph had a lovely figure and perfect features, and was a rare Elf, Qin Chu could hardly arouse any desire for her... Catherine and Asina still managed to interest Qin Chu a bit more.

Her soul was so repulsive to him... However, it was a beautiful body that perhaps could be used as a fleshly host or turned into a finely crafted beautiful puppet.

Frankly, Qin Chu was also puzzled as to why Jie Luo would choose such a person as his teammate; could this be the so-called birds of a feather flock together?

Wait a moment... Qin Chu suddenly thought of a very important issue.

There were ten members in the Hero Team chosen by Jie Luo.

Almost all had some issues.

Karsas had been completely corrupted by the Evil God into a hideous monster and had been purified.

A scar shaped like the red X symbol of the Divine appeared below Silph’s collarbone, similar to the one on the chest of Karsas and the Witch Slayer.

And speak of Rose Vesper, it was through the seven scroll she was hiding that Qin Chu learned of the mysterious existence in the Void; Rose Vesper’s relationship with the Void was closer than anyone else’s.

Among ten people, three already had some connection with the Evil God; could this really just be a pure coincidence?

This matter might be worth researching in detail later.

Qin Chu was pondering his own concerns while Silph was anticipating the arrival of a nightmare. The night breeze blew past the window, creating a layer of fine goosebumps on Silph’s smooth shoulders.

Her hands instinctively clasped her shoulders, shivering violently.

Just then, Silph suddenly felt something fall onto her body... was it Qin Chu’s hand? Her body trembled even more fiercely.

But soon, Silph realized the touch was somewhat off.

She opened her eyes somewhat blankly and discovered that it wasn’t Qin Chu’s hand on her body but rather his coat.

She looked at Qin Chu with confusion, not understanding his intentions.

"Miss Silph, do you think I am threatening you, trying to get your body?" Qin Chu asked with a smile, his tone gentle.

Isn’t it? Silph muttered to herself internally.

"If that caused you any misunderstanding, I am very sorry," Qin Chu said leisurely.

Silph grew more perplexed. Was this gentlemanly man really the same person who had been so menacingly threatening her just moments ago?

And this was precisely the effect Qin Chu wanted to see; he aimed to confuse Silph, for a confused woman was easiest to deceive... No, to bamboozle... No, rather, to persuade!

"Ah, I remember now, I glanced at your chest earlier. You didn’t think I was staring at your breasts, did you?" Qin Chu tapped his head lightly, as if he had just remembered something.

Silph bit her lip and remained silent; the vast contrast before and after made her even more confused. She didn’t know how to respond.

"Actually, that would be quite rude for a gentleman... Of course, I’m not saying Miss Silph isn’t beautiful enough to catch a gentleman’s eye," Qin Chu said with a deliberate light chuckle.

"Actually, it’s something else that I care about."

Silph’s hand subconsciously touched her chest; she didn’t know what else could possibly attract the opposite sex’s attention apart from this spot.

"I had never thought of threatening Miss Silph, nor have I harbored any resentment because you tried to assassinate me. Please believe me on this point,"

"Because I know, the idea of murdering me is not really Miss Silph’s own intention."

No, this is indeed my real intention, I really want to kill you, Silph continued muttering in her heart, of course, she was foolish but not foolish enough to voice these thoughts.

"All I said earlier was to get you to calm down first, then we could carry on with our conversation. Otherwise, it could lead to irrevocable consequences."

"I have no intention of threatening you, nor am I coveting your beautiful body."

Qin Chu’s gaze intensely followed Silph as she closed her eyes, then he slightly stepped back.

"I am doing this merely to..."

"Save you!"

Save myself?

Silph, who had her eyes tightly shut till then, finally opened them. She looked at Qin Chu bewilderedly, only to see him leaning back in his chair, his figure seemingly enveloped in a soft, hazy holy light.

Somehow mystical, sacred.

"I don’t think there’s anything about me that needs saving."

"Is that so?"

Qin Chu leaned back leisurely, half-closing his eyes, deliberately making his voice sound compassionate, "Then, my poor elf..."

"There’s a mirror over there."

A mirror?

Silph was slightly suspicious, yet she walked over to the mirror. She looked at her perfect body reflected in the full-length mirror.

It wasn’t self-praise—Silph had always been confident in her figure and appearance.

She didn’t think there was anything wrong with her body, but as she watched, Silph seemed to notice something. Her expression gradually turned to fear, her face paled, and her body began to tremble involuntarily.

Just below the collarbone, in the middle of her chest, faint red marks had appeared at some unknown time, crossing each other in a weird X shape on the front.

Silph rubbed hard at them, but to no avail; these two marks seemed branded onto her body.

"See it?"

"Does it look familiar...?"

"Indeed, when Karsas was completely beastified, his chest bore similar marks, only they were more visible, more bloody."

"My poor elf, when you entered this room, I already felt it, you... have been corrupted by the Evil God."

"Perhaps, it won’t be long before you turn into a monster like Karsas, starting with those closest to you and knowing only slaughter."

Silph’s body shook, her complexion deathly pale with no trace of color, her beautiful eyes showing intense fear. The thought of turning into something like Karsas made her scalp tingle.

No, absolutely not!

"I don’t want to see such a tragedy happen, so I want to save you..."

"Beautiful elf, you don’t want to turn into a monster like Karsas, do you?"
