Stop Hypnotizing Me, Antagonist Princess!

Although they believed in deities, they had never witnessed a miracle.

Instead, what descended upon them first was a disaster akin to the advent of demons.

As time passed, the black mud that seemed alive even mutated.

One after another, these frightening, black figures began to emerge from the black mire flowing in the streets, embarking on indiscriminate slaughter of all life around.

In an instant, the entire city was swept by chaos and flames.

Countless innocents perished under the inexplicable catastrophe.

Although the churches also brought out their Sealed Objects and set up refuges and quarantine zones around the temples, it was but a drop in the bucket for Orn City, with its population of over 800,000.

It was in this dire moment that someone unexpected stood up.

In the middle of the City Square.

At this moment, accompanied by the unfolding of an invisible barrier, a silver-haired youth dressed in lavish clothing was stepping towards the platform amidst the throngs of people.

His hands were clasped behind his back, his expression detached yet dignified.

The reason Prince Felit had not immediately left Orn City, but instead took the risky decision to stay, was precisely for this unforeseen move in his game.

To him, whether the public revered or feared him on normal days was of no consequence.

However, the Holy Oak Organization had its own King's election scoring system, where public opinion carried significant weight.

Therefore, why not take advantage of the commotion Ivyst had caused and do what he could conveniently handle?

It just so happened that during his visit to Orn City, he had brought along a High-level Sealed Item, sheltering many of the city's survivors within.

Looking at the hundreds of thousands of ordinary people gathered in the City Square and the surrounding streets, feeling their eyes filled with reverence and the joy of surviving the calamity, the Second Prince Felit was expressionless.

After this event, his name would be widely spread throughout Orn City and its neighboring areas.

People would be grateful for his kindness, making him the biggest winner of this disaster.

That was enough for him.

Taking a deep breath with the help of amplification magic, he then raised his voice slightly, "You should be grateful for my grace, and always remember, the one who is providing you with shelter at this moment is Felit of the Saint Laurent Empire, the Second Prince..."

But at the critical juncture, something unexpected happened once again.

Just as his words were about to conclude, a voice suddenly came through, instantly resonating across the entire city's skies!

"People, remember, it is not those high above deities who are saving you from this disaster, but Ivyst Laurent Alexini, the Third Imperial Princess of the Saint Laurent Empire."

"She says, there should be no filth in this world."

And thus, the heavens and the earth were renewed.

In an instant, the heavy lead clouds that shrouded the city dispersed, and the sunlight's afterglow was cast upon the land once again.

Throughout the city's streets, the monsters that had emerged from the black mire collapsed with a thunderous fall, and the black mire that flowed everywhere seemed to be summoned by some invisible force, scattering in all directions like a tide.

Those who had miraculously survived the disaster looked at the mess around them and were so dumbfounded they could not utter a word.

It took a while before they finally came back to their senses and began to wail and cry as if they had been spared from a great calamity.

At the same time, a name they had never heard before was deeply etched into their hearts.

Ivyst Laurent Alexini.

...

"Sorry, I had just gotten distracted dealing with some other matters."

Feeling the relentless turmoil in the spiritual world, Lynn, who had returned to his senses, said with a smile.

At this moment, looking at the black pantyhose he was clutching in his hands, the Creation Demon could only feel like the person in front of him was acting as if he had gone mad.

If he weren't mad, who would whimsically pull out a woman's pantyhose at a time when they were on the brink of death?

A hint of scorn flashed in the resentful eyes of the Creation Demon.

"Do you really think you can dance in that thing in front of me and manage to die laughing out a demon alive?"

At this point, having recovered from the Thorny Crown's attack, and after insane plundering and assault, it had regained most of the control over Lynn's body.

Even though its status had diminished, it was not something a First Rank brat could resist.

Although it had been quite a feat to persist to this stage, the gap in strength was insurmountable in any case.

"What did you say?" Lynn seemed a bit upset, "The original scent pantyhose of a beautiful lady, of course, are meant to be used."

Haha.

Looking at the young man who seemed to have completely lost his mind, the Creation Demon decided not to waste any more words with him.

Within the spiritual world, it launched a final, powerful assault on Lynn's soul, determined to completely annihilate his consciousness with this attack.

However, in the real world, Lynn was controlling his body and made an unexpected move.

He held the pair of stockings tightly, shakily extending his hand in front of him with a solemn and serious expression, as if performing some mysterious ritual.

Then... suddenly, he buried his entire face into them and took a deep breath.

Disgusting, perhaps?

Was this truly the last thing he wanted to do before he died?

The Creation Demon seemed to be shocked by his actions.

Yet, Lynn seized this fleeting opportunity, taking control of his body and letting out a final, desperate shout with all his might.

It was as if he was denouncing the injustice of fate or offering a tenacious resistance against the Creation Demon.

But as the words reached his lips, they unexpectedly transformed into something different.

"...Miss Witch!"

"Save! Me! Ahhhhhh!!!!!!"

"Boom——"

The next second, a vast and boundless power pierced through the barriers of time and space, shattering the space behind Lynn, creating a dark and unknown time-space portal.

A strong and familiar force of attraction came, flashing a glimmer of surprise in Lynn's eyes.

This was different from the previous soul crossings.

This time, even his physical body was swept into the pitch-black time-space portal under the pull of that power.

After that, he completely disappeared.

...

The speeding carriage raced through the chaotic streets.

Inside the carriage, Aphia sat next to the Princess, silently wiping her tears.

Princess Ivyst's pale hands were tightly clasped together, her delicate skin already scarred and bleeding from her nails clawing unknowingly.

But she seemed oblivious to such pain, her gaze fixed emptily on the carriage patterns above.

Aphia had a bad premonition.

Having followed the Princess for so many years, she had witnessed the Princess overcome countless adversities and setbacks, as well as innumerable failures.

Yet none of those failures had ever brought her down.

Princess Ivyst's goals had always been steadfast, and despite the ridicule from numerous people, she never wavered, almost as if driven by an obsession carved in her heart.

But now, Aphia could no longer sense even that obsession within the Princess.

She could not let the Princess continue like this.

Otherwise, something terrible would surely happen!

As this thought emerged, Aphia wanted to say something to Princess Ivyst, to temporarily divert her attention.

But just then, a familiar voice suddenly spread throughout the entire city.

"People, remember, it is not the high and mighty gods who are saving you from calamity at this moment, but the Third Imperial Princess of the Saint Laurent Empire, Ivyst Laurent Alexini."

It was that scoundrel!

Aphia's tears became unstoppable.

She actually understood very well what would be the consequences of being contaminated by the core characteristics of a First Rank Sealed Object.

Yet, as if to escape reality, no one was willing to utter the truth.

But when Lynn's voice once again echoed in her ears, Aphia completely broke down.

Until he left this world, was the last thing he did truly to help the Princess realize her ideals?

Aphia instinctively looked at the Princess.

The moment she understood those words, Princess Ivyst, who had been as lifeless as withered wood, finally showed some reaction.

Her body trembled.

Not out of joy for hearing Lynn's voice again.

On the contrary.

After that phrase, she could no longer sense any life force from him through the brand she had left on his chest.

The entire process was like a silent and secret farewell.

In an instant, Princess Ivyst felt the world spinning, vomited a mouthful of blood with a "wah" and then completely passed out.
