The hero's gender is yet to be determined after rebirth.

The tall girl kept cursing: "Damn it! Who does that elf think she is?!"

"Yeah, right! How dare she hurt us! My leg hurts so much, I wouldn't be able to walk if you hadn't been supporting me!" the shorter girl continued cursing. "When we get back, we'll figure out how to deal with this little elf!"

"She must be as shameless as the fortune teller! Just like Sally... Wait, why can't I move my legs?"

"Ah! Your feet have been petrified!"

"Petrification magic?! Why didn't I hear any incantation?"

The two women fell to the ground with a thud, and were shocked to find that their feet had turned to stone, and the trend was continuing to spread.

A strange voice shot directly into their minds, making their hair stand on end even in the morning sun.

[Do you even have the right to speak ill of Lady Sylph?]

If there's a next time, let's turn them into two statues!

This is an extremely powerful mental force, the effect of speaking directly in the mind.

The opponent was at least at the level of a Grandmaster! The two women were speechless with astonishment.

The petrification was spreading along their legs, but thankfully it stopped at their thighs. Clearly, the attacker was controlling the force and didn't intend to completely petrify them.

"Spare me—"

We were wrong!

However, the voice in their minds did not respond to them again.

Lorenwei deliberately avoided showing herself. After carrying out this intimidation, she tried her best to catch up with Sylph and return to the villa.

The petrification spell I just cast was deliberately controlled in terms of its onset time and the area of ​​the torso it affected; it will automatically dissipate in about an hour.

This was primarily a deterrent to the two women, a psychological intimidation as a precaution. Although they were unlikely to do anything to Sylph, it was still good to make them wary and fearful.

When Lorenwei opened the door and entered the building, she saw that Sylph was already standing in the living room on the first floor waiting for her.

She went upstairs and found herself neither in the small bed nor in the second-floor bathroom.

Sylph's face didn't show much expression. She didn't say anything, but just waved for Lorenwei to go to the first-floor washroom.

Looks like they're lucky; neither Kurara nor Melanie woke up. Lorenwei deduced that Sylph had asked her to go to the washroom so that any noise would disturb them while they were still sleeping.

"Where did you go?" After closing the door, Sylph asked Lorenve with a serious expression.

Lorenvi grinned mischievously: "Hehe, guess?"

"...Were you following me?"

"That's right, I'll also wipe your butt while I'm at it."

Sylph blushed: "Don't talk nonsense. Hmph, it's the same old story again. Can't you change it?"

She easily understood what Mu Zhe had said back then.

"Isn't it because you weren't careful enough?" Lorenwei rolled her eyes and said, "A perfectly good sneak attack turned into a public beating. Don't you know that the most terrifying thing is when you don't know their strength? When you stand out in the open, the other party is no longer afraid of you."

"...How much trouble can they cause?"

"They don't have that ability. But don't you think it's not worth the risk for us?"

"I did nothing wrong."

"Haha, your attitude is just like those two women from earlier. They were cursing and swearing even after they ran away."

"Tch, just like before, lecturing me." Sylph rolled her eyes.

"You should sit down properly." Lorenwei pulled Sylph to sit down on the toilet in the bathroom.

Of course, the toilet seat was closed.

The small villa belonged to the school principal, and everything was built to the highest standards on the continent. Even the toilet was made of wood, and its cost was definitely no less than one gold coin.

"Huh? What are you doing?" Sylph was pressed against the toilet by Lorenwei, her heart beating slightly faster.

Sure enough, Lorenwei's next move made her even more nervous.

Lorenwei lifted her leg to look! And she looked very closely!

"You lecherous scoundrel!" Sylph was so embarrassed that she was about to kick Lorenve's serious face.

"You really got bitten by mosquitoes! Look at these spots, quite a few bites!" Lorenwei's words surprised Sylph.

Lorenve supported one of Sylph's legs with one hand, and with the other hand...

He took out the peppermint balm from the spatial ring and began applying the medicine to her.

Only then did Sylph notice that her legs were covered in red mosquito bites.

It would have been better if I hadn't been reminded, but after Lorenwei pointed it out, I realized that the bite site was swollen and itchy.

"Don't move, I'll apply the medicine for you." Lorenwei dipped her fingers in an ointment made of fish oil and mint and began to apply it to her.

"No, I... I can do it myself." The suggestive posture made Sylph blush...

Lorenwei ignored her.

Sylph tried to pull her leg back, but couldn't.

Lorenwei scolded, "Don't move around, it's hard for me to support your legs."

"Apply it gently, it's so itchy... It feels weird..." Siluf felt the peppermint balm quickly bring a cooling sensation to her skin after it came into contact with her skin, and then, as Lorenwei applied it with her fingers, it even felt a little warm.

Just then, a slight sound came from outside the door.

Bang! The door was suddenly pushed open!

Kurala stood at the door with wide eyes, looking like she was about to interrogate someone.

However, seeing Lorenve applying peppermint balm to Sylph, the princess quickly became a little embarrassed...

"Uh, how come you have so many mosquito bites?"

“…Ah, I love attracting mosquitoes.” Sylph hurriedly pulled her leg back forcefully, stood up, and slipped out.

“Elves love to attract mosquito bites,” Lorenwei said with a dry laugh.

"Never heard of it." Kurara rolled her eyes.

Book Title: The World-Destroying Empress? I'm Pretending

"Your Majesty, people always tend to be moderate. They are extremely unwilling to be conquered and their country destroyed."

"But if you say you want to destroy the world, they will rush to mediate and compromise, and be willing to exist as a province of the empire."

"Hmm, that seems to make sense." Li Qingzhi nodded thoughtfully.

"Alright then, let's do it your way and promote it as 'The end is coming'."

"But let me make this clear, I'm really not some Chosen One of Chaos that you're talking about," Li Qingzhi added seriously.

The Chaos Believers below the stage twitched at the corner of their mouths as they looked at Li Qingzhi sitting on the Blood Throne.

Endless black and red spiritual light swirled around her, and subspace rifts behind her opened and closed like eyes.

"Indeed, you are not the Chosen One of Chaos..."

"Instead... new ascendants."

Chapter 255 The Truth Both the Hero and the Demon King Know!

After breakfast, Lorenwei lazily wanted to take a nap.

"Where are you going? Aren't you going to train?" Kurara asked curiously as she watched Lorenwei squinting as she walked upstairs.

"Ah, I didn't sleep well last night." Lorenwei yawned as she walked upstairs.

Kurara said irritably, "What exactly did you guys do last night?"

“We’re going to catch the people who harmed Sally. Didn’t I just explain that?” Lorenwei pointed to her eyes and said, “I didn’t lie to you at all. Look into my eyes if you don’t believe me.”

"I'd never believe you." Kurala didn't pursue the matter further.

As she walked upstairs, Lorenwei noticed that Meilan was sitting in the living room, looking a bit lost in thought.

Ever since she bought cooking ingredients last night, she seemed a little off. Lorenwei noticed this slightly, but still didn't ask.

Has Kula's jealousy phase passed and it's Meilan's turn now? The guilty-hearted Lorenwei pondered, of the three women, Meilan was the only one she hadn't kissed yet.

Should I find an opportunity to make it up to her? Lorenwei had this thought in mind.

But Lorenwei quickly dismissed the idea. Leaving aside the risks of premature judgment, Meilan's naive and romantic nature alone made it unsuitable to kiss her too early.

She felt a sense of guilt. What if such a straightforward girl underwent some major psychological change after they kissed? Wouldn't she be committing a terrible crime? Lorenwei thought responsibly.

She didn't even consider whether stealing three girls' first kisses was a heinous crime.

That scumbag Weiwei...

Lorenwei went back to sleep for two hours, but then couldn't fall back asleep.

I got up and looked around; no one was in the little house.

Lorenwei went outside and arrived at a small training ground not far away.

Sure enough, Sylph and Kurara were undergoing their own special training.

Sylph naturally practiced archery to regain her sense of being a master archer. This was the most effective way to quickly improve her strength, besides physical training to build up energy.

Energy accumulation must be done gradually, without shortcuts, but an archer's aiming and intuitive shooting skills can be regained relatively easily. After all, the female elf once reached the pinnacle of archery prowess.

Kurara, on the other hand, trained her knightly skills under the guidance of Bulpo.

Burbo taught very seriously. Although in his eyes, Kurara was a student with relatively poor talent, he was willing to learn and respected his teacher. Teachers love to teach students who are liked by them, even if they are not very smart.

Of course, Kurara's talent is relatively poor compared to a prodigy like Lorenwei. Reaching the level of a Grand Knight at fourteen, Kurara is definitely not mediocre; in fact, she's not far from being a genius.

But Meilan wasn't seen on the training field.

"Hey, have you guys seen Meilan?"

"That little girl who threw a punch at me? No," Bulbo replied irritably. "Is she afraid of my revenge, so she's too scared to show her face?"

Lorenwei laughed and said, "Meilan wouldn't do that. She'd actually be hoping you'd get your revenge so she could have a fight."
