Chapter 712: Chapter 500 Pride Witch’s Charm (2)_2
The feeling was the most important, as if her father had been watching her all along. For the first time, Atreus, who had never felt any father-daughter relationship before, sensed the existence of familial affection.
She performed more diligently than ever before.
But now, it all seemed like nonsense.
Her father had never really watched over her, never... He had only wanted to find a suitable host to wield the Demon King’s demigod-level Strength, and these words might have been spoken not only to her.
McDonald, Yodora, Delna... even Luo Meng, who had been hiding in the Demon King City until now, had all been treated so tenderly by her father... This process would excite and thrill the Demon King’s sons and daughters, but they didn’t know it was just a process of selecting a host.
Recalling the warmth that had once emerged in her heart because of this, Atreus even felt an urge to laugh... she was such a foolish woman, foolish, foolish, foolish...
Despite enduring immense pain, Atreus laughed neurotically like a madwoman.
The warmth she had felt was as comfortable as it was, it was now as painful, and the affection she had once felt was now as thick as the hatred that filled her.
Hatred... Hatred... Hatred...
In the heart of the Demon Princess, all emotions had transformed into intense, inextricable hatred.
Especially when her father did not care at all whether her body could withstand it, forcibly infusing her with demigod-level Strength, letting her truly experience the pain originating from the deepest parts of her body and soul.
Previously, she couldn’t control her own body, but she had not missed a single word her father had said.
To her father, she was just a pitiful tool, disposable, to be thrown away after use...
Isn’t this exactly what a real demon would do?
She knew this clearly, yet why was it so hard to bear now?
A painful groan came from Atreus’ throat.
Almost every second, her condition worsened; the eerie erosion was spreading along the wounds on her fractured arm, and her slender neck and attractive collarbones began to show web-like patterns.
The cracks on her body were becoming more exaggerated; she could no longer bear it, and perhaps in just a few minutes, the Demon Princess would die completely.
But in Atreus’ eyes, the hatred was almost turning to liquid, streaming down with the tears of blood from the corners of her eyes.
Atreus knew she was about to die, and she was not reconciled.
In her ears, she seemed to hear a faint voice through the haze.
Her increasingly dim eyes turned toward the direction of the sound.
It was still that familiar figure, the Hero Qin Chu, the enemy of her past, her target to hunt.
Was he here to end her life? That was normal; although she, the hunter, had ultimately become the prey, Hero Qin Chu was not a kind-hearted person, and he would not allow her to survive.
Atreus did not expect to live through Qin Chu’s hands; she already knew her fate... But the unwillingness in her heart was growing stronger.
She knew her fall to this state was due to her own greed, but more so, it was her father’s behind-the-scenes manipulations.
She could accept death reluctantly but could not tolerate being ruined and destroyed by her father, while he could stay in the Demon King Palace and continue to enjoy everything.
This hatred triggered an unprecedentedly strong impulse in Atreus’ chest to seek revenge.
She wanted to survive, to make her father pay the price, to make him repent for his actions.
This impulse brightened her already dim eyes slightly.
Somehow gathering strength, Atreus breathed rapidly and heavily, her eyes fixed intently on Qin Chu, "Don’t kill me, give me a chance."
"I want to take revenge on the Demon King."
"I will become the most powerful arm on your path to killing the Demon King."
Atreus did not plead; she simply showed her value.
"I am very familiar with the situation on the demons’ side, and can provide you with great help."
Indeed, a case of loving father, doting daughter.
Originally, Qin Chu had intended to kill Atreus outright, but after hearing this, he slowly stopped walking, his fingers on his chin, pondering.
This is the true posture of pleading for mercy, don’t try to evoke sympathy from someone who wants to kill you. The only thing that can truly save you is your value.
The hatred Atreus held for Demon King Nage was not fake.
You say, Demon King Nage, even though she’s your daughter, had you spoken a few kind words before, Atreus might not have harbored such hatred. Now look, even your daughter wants to kill you.
What concerned Qin Chu more was Atreus’s so-called understanding of demons.
This was Atreus’s value.
She was not pleading for herself; she was proposing a trade.
And this trade greatly tempted Qin Chu.
But Qin Chu also had his reservations. Atreus was a very autonomous woman, and completely controlling such a woman would not be an easy task.
No one knew whether this kind of woman would eventually become a betrayer, stabbing him in the back.
Great and Small Shaye had also stopped quarreling for the moment, both of their gazes fixated on Qin Chu, waiting for him to make a decision quickly, because if this delay continued, Atreus might die without Qin Chu having to lift a finger.
Although there was no friendship or close sisterly bond, only acquaintanceship through some past conversations, if Great and Small Shaye had to choose between life and death for Atreus, they still hoped that Atreus could live as long as possible.
Of course, if Qin Chu was determined to kill Atreus, Great and Small Shaye would not stop him.
Qin Chu was still pondering; if Adelina could wake up, with the Authority of Pride of the Pride Witch to control Atreus’s mind, that would be quite excellent.
As for Qin Chu himself, he actually had no means to manipulate others.
He had not taken away Adelina’s Authority of Pride... and Adelina’s soul was still being nourished by the Little Tree Seedling, seemingly showing no signs of awakening.
As Qin Chu hesitated, a hazy light gradually emerged behind him, within which a faint, ghostlike silhouette appeared, translucent like a ghost.
It somewhat resembled the first appearance of Shaye.
She, too, was a stunningly beautiful girl.
Her silver-white long dress fluttered in the wind.
She had long, lustrous black hair.
Her delicate skin was as pale and flawless as jade.
Below her long legs, silver-white stockings adorned with mysterious runes emphasized her slender, well-rounded legs.
It was as if a queen had arrived.
Her beautiful face was full of dignity, her slightly tilted noble head and black eyes exuding an air of disdain for everything.
Just like the first time they met... only there was a slight difference, although still majestic and proud, there was a hint of coquettishness and seductiveness on that beautiful face, along with a slightly cournering smile.
Her long, fair arms encircled Qin Chu’s arms from behind, like the Great Shaye once did, and her entire ghostly body leaned on Qin Chu’s back.
It seemed that Qin Chu could feel a soft pressure from behind.
Her pale lips approached Qin Chu’s ear.
Although she was just a pure soul body and should have no sensation, Qin Chu could, in a daze, smell the enticing fragrance emanating from Adelina behind him.
His ears could also feel the airflow from Adelina’s lips.
Suddenly, his ears began to itch.
Strangely, a flame began to rise in his lower abdomen.
Goodness... was this the Pride Witch, or a Seductress Witch? How bewitching.
Her soft, moist voice gently echoed in Qin Chu’s ear: "Sure..."
"Whatever you want to do, I will satisfy you."
