Chapter 597: Chapter 431 Let the Master Cool Off (5)

Alfred, who barely got up from the ground with Princess Miluo’s support, felt utterly humiliated.

It was this man in front of him who had defiled Sister Sylph and even became intimately close with the princess his own king had betrothed to him. His assassination attempt had no effect whatsoever, and he had even been slapped to the ground by this man, his blood spilling everywhere.

He didn’t know how many of his bones had been shattered, and his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose were all bleeding profusely, a complete mess.

In the end, he even had to rely on a woman’s help to survive, which the proud Alfred found unbearable. He pushed Princess Miluo away with a slap, perhaps knowing Miluo wouldn’t hurt him. Alfred spat at the princess who had just saved him from Qin Chu’s hands, "Pah, shameless wretch."

"Don’t put on a fake act of kindness here."

"You’ve completely disgraced the Exeter Royal Family. You were already promised to me by your father, and now you’ve become so intimate with another man? Or is this your true nature, unable to live without a man?"

"You must be very pleased now, able to blatantly frolic with your adulterer."

His words freely mocked and humiliated Miluo’s dignity.

Miluo’s face was pale, and her tall figure seemed even smaller at the moment, trembling incessantly.

Although Alfred had always avoided her, and even when they met, he was indifferent and very cold, it was the first time he had spoken such harsh words.

Miluo seemed to be scared by Alfred’s demeanor. She hadn’t expected that the usually gentle, gentlemanly, and handsome Elf King would also have such a side?

As Miluo tried to argue, the shock was too much for her to speak. Her eyes reddened, and Qin Chu, looking distressed, frowned slightly and took a step forward.

Just this subtle movement made Alfred shudder and glare fiercely at Miluo before turning his head and walking away.

Qin Chu did not chase to kill but merely flicked his fingers, and a red silk thread silently landed on Alfred’s body. Alfred only felt a pain in his shoulder, thinking it was the injury Qin Chu had just inflicted, not paying much mind to it.

Qin Chu did not kill Alfred on the spot since the guy was still formally a king of Exeter.

However, that didn’t mean Qin Chu intended to let him live.

Originally, upon hearing Asina’s report, Qin Chu had only planned to teach this guy a light lesson, but now Qin Chu decided to take his life.

For an elf, being corrupted with filth and turning rotten and dirty is probably even more painful than death, right?

Most importantly, when Alfred completely transformed into a monster, Qin Chu would have a justifiable reason to openly deal with the troublemaker.

"I apologize, Princess Miluo. Perhaps because I invited you for dinner, it led to Prince Alfred misunderstanding. Should I go and clarify things to him?" Qin Chu said, somewhat embarrassedly, "I will definitely find a way to convince him."

He tightened his grip on his fingers then loosened them again, confident that there were ways to persuade someone.

Miluo took a deep breath, her lips fluttering, and it took her a long time to regain her composure, the rims of her eyes still a bit red. She finally recovered to her usual gallant princess demeanor: "No, Mr. Brave, I should be the one apologizing, as a minor misunderstanding nearly caused you harm."

"Alfred was just impulsive. Please, Mr. Brave, don’t blame him."

Apart from being a bit taller, he was a very qualified member of the Royal Family.

Qin Chu shook his head slightly and looked at Miluo again, his facial expression seeming a bit strange. In fact, if you ignored her height and the fur on her skin, and just focused on her facial features and figure, she was a rather nice girl.

"Princess, I want to say it again, that kind of person really doesn’t deserve you."

It was the truth.

Although Alfred was unmatched in beauty, when paired with Princess Miluo, Qin Chu felt it was even a desecration to Miluo.

That guy didn’t even deserve to be called a man.

"Are all the members of the Exeter Royal Family who undergo ancestral regression like you?" Qin Chu asked curiously.

Miluo was stunned for a moment then realized what Qin Chu was referring to. She chuckled bitterly and shook her head, "No, I am an exception."

"Just like your ladylove, Miss Silph, although she has regressed, only her ears show the characteristics of an elf."

"And my second sister only has ears that look like a fox’s, ah, and she gained a few more tails. My third sister has cat-like ears, and my youngest sister is even more special. She looks completely normal on ordinary days, only showing her mermaid form when she goes underwater."

"Their regression is just a very small part and doesn’t seem odd; in fact, it can appear quite cute. Only I, being exceptionally tall and covered in fur, would normally be mistaken for a gorilla," Miluo’s voice became somewhat resigning, very tough on a girl.

This was indeed true; regression usually affected only a very small part of the body.

Having the entire skin show signs of regression like Miluo’s was indeed very rare.

Could it be, there was some problem during the regression process?

"Haven’t you consulted a Priest or a doctor from the Temple? Maybe it’s some kind of condition," Qin Chu pondered.

Miluo shook her head again, "Of course, I’ve sought them out, but they all say it’s a normal phenomenon of regression, and my body is very healthy!"

The princess pounded her own head playfully, "Healthy to a terrifying level, I might add. When I was three, due to naughtiness, I climbed to the rooftop of the Royal Palace and fell off. Then I just flipped over and climbed back up again..."

"At first, it was just a layer of fine fur that was almost invisible. But as my strength grew stronger, the fur grew thicker and longer, and even after shaving, it would grow back the next day."

"I’ve even grown taller."

"I’m scared, I haven’t been training, but my body’s strength still exaggerates day by day."

"Don’t be afraid to know, I haven’t even trained in Fighting Energy or Magic at all."

Qin Chu was shocked by this.

Although from the first sight, Qin Chu hadn’t sensed any fluctuations of Magic Power or Fighting Energy from the Princess, he initially thought that Miluo was just hiding it well.

But now it seemed, Miluo hadn’t learned Fighting Energy at all.

Then, was Miluo’s current destructive power, comparable to that of Martial God, purely physical?

That was somewhat frightening.

If it could be said that Asina possessed the strongest soul in Sky Dome Continent, it seemed Miluo might someday have the strongest body there.

"Perhaps, in a few more years, I really might turn into a big furry gorilla," Miluo self-deprecatingly commented, and then raised her head again, her spirits revitalized. "It seems I’ve been complaining non-stop."

"Mr. Brave, your arrival is a great joy for the Exeter Kingdom, I must immediately inform my father and we must treat you well. Would you come with me to the Royal Palace?"

Qin Chu had intended to decline the offer as unnecessary. However, considering that Asina and the others were struggling to find useful information, and that the best knowledge about the Exeter Kingdom naturally came from the Royal Family, it might be easier if he could make a breakthrough with them.

So this time, Qin Chu merely refused the invitation to the Royal Palace, and didn’t say much else. He quietly watched the Princess leave, then left a stack of bills and turned to leave.

In the inn.

Asina and Silf also heard the noise outside but didn’t take it to heart.

After all, the layers of low-intelligence surveillance Asina had laid out showed that Alfred and Tatter had never entered the inn... Alfred had appeared for a while, but had already left.

However, just as the two had laid down to sleep, they suddenly heard a knock at the door.

"Who?"

Silf immediately sat up, instinctively adopting a defensive posture.

"It’s me."

The voice from outside caused both Silf and Asina to widen their eyes.

They had long known their master was meticulous. After settling everything, he might appear in the Exeter Kingdom tomorrow. But they hadn’t expected him to show up in the middle of the night... It seemed their master was even more careful than they had imagined.

The two women exchanged a look and could see the helplessness in each other’s eyes. Asina signaled with her eyes, and Silf, not bothering to put on shoes, walked quickly to the door with bare feet and, sure enough, Qin Chu was outside.

Although she hadn’t done anything guilty, Silf still felt a bit nervous, her gaze flitting about. "Master, you sure came... really quickly."

"Hmm, I’m quite worried about Jie Luo’s Soul Fragment. Since you couldn’t find any clues, I decided to come over personally."

Asina couldn’t contain herself and rolled her eyes. Good grief, the excuse of Jie Luo’s Soul Fragment sure is usable everywhere.

However, Qin Chu didn’t care much about the details and lied casually, "I had already arrived earlier in the evening. Although I haven’t found any leads about the Soul Fragment, I did meet a handsome elf."

"His name seemed to be Alfred, the Elf King of Exeter. We had a friendly exchange."

Asina’s eyes flickered, recalling the earlier commotion outside. Silf also quickly connected the dots.

This so-called friendly exchange, could it be the conflict they just heard outside?

Seeing that their master was unscathed, it must have been Alfred who took the beating, which was normal. This Elf King, although strong, couldn’t hold a candle before their master.

It wouldn’t be surprising if he were beaten to a pulp, unrecognizable as a person.

And knowing their master’s character, although he wouldn’t directly kill a Royal of different surname on the streets of Exeter, behind the scenes, who knows what shameless tactics he used. Perhaps he had already surreptitiously attached a thread of the Evil God onto Alfred, waiting for Alfred to mutate into a monster so he could righteously kill him later.

It must be said, as women who had been with Qin Chu for a long time, they really understood his character.

Silf, feeling helpless, could only look to Asina in hopes that the intelligent Asina could think of something.

Asina covered her mouth and chuckled, her gaze sweeping over the curves not hidden by the pure white nightgown and tender skin.

Clearly, the master was burning with rage.

Why not let the master cool down? As for Asina, she would naturally help out at the side and wouldn’t let Silf fight alone.

Silf quickly understood this and put on a coquettish smile, helped Qin Chu to sit on the bed, and started gently massaging his shoulders. "Master."

"I’ve been feeling a bit off recently, like those residual threads of the Evil God are starting to act up again. Could you help me treat it again?"

With her attractive body pressed against Qin Chu’s back, her soft, sultry voice echoed in his ears.
