"You can check if you have any sealed jars or similar items in your house. If you do, that's very likely where the earthbound spirit is locked."

"I see. If I find such jars or something, what should I do?"

"It's very simple. If you have salt at home, you can repel them, or this."

As she spoke, Ms. Kaphni took a small white glass bottle from the bottom of her drawer and handed it directly to me.

"This is?"

"This is holy water. If this earthbound spirit is too ferocious, you can just pour it over her, and she'll instantly... you know what I mean."

As she spoke, Ms. Kaphni made a decapitation gesture.

"Oh, that's great, thank you so much, Ms. Kaphni."

"I'll give you this holy water for free, but you must promise your teacher that you'll help me find Lila, okay?"

"No problem, leave it to me."

I patted my chest and responded confidently.

But where am I supposed to find clues about Lila? That's something that's really baffling me.

Although I made a boast, I knew absolutely nothing about Lila's habits, what she liked, or where she liked to go.

Aside from knowing that she's a proud and stubborn person who likes to show off... I really don't know anything else.

But since the teacher has already helped me, I'll try to find her along the way home from school. Maybe I can find her someday.

However, the most important thing is still the earth spirit in my house that affects my sleep and makes me pick flowers in the middle of the night.

While having a harem is important, that guy has seriously affected my daily life.

So without further ado, tonight we'll start capturing that earthbound spirit hiding in the house. If it dares to threaten me again, I'll sprinkle this holy water out and send it straight to heaven!

Chapter Twenty: Finding the Injured Lira (Part 1)

Right after school, I got into the carriage and did my best to find clues about Lila, because I didn't want to lose this cute blonde loli.

If we lose her, it will mean that our goal of adding her to our harem has completely failed...

This is the outcome I absolutely do not want.

However, even as darkness fell, they still couldn't find any trace of her.

Sigh, Ms. Kaphni... It's not my fault. I searched very carefully and with great effort... but I still couldn't find any trace of Lila.

Left with no other choice, I climbed back onto the carriage and headed home.

However, after walking for only a short distance, I seemed to see a familiar figure swaying and taking very difficult steps forward.

Although it was getting dark, I recognized her immediately by her beautiful long golden hair.

That's Lila!

I was overjoyed and immediately ordered the soldier driving the carriage to stop. Then, without saying a word, I rushed towards Lila, who was slowly moving forward.

When I was less than two meters away from Lila, she seemed to sense that someone was approaching her.

Then, without saying a word, he pulled out his magic wand and pointed it at me.

But this startled me.

"Uh... Lira, it's me, Ivy."

I hurriedly explained to Lila.

"Ivy... classmate?"

Upon seeing me, a relieved smile appeared on her face, and then she went limp and was about to collapse.

"Danger!"

Seeing that things were not going well, I rushed forward, caught her, and pulled her into my arms.

Ah, it still has that same soft touch, which sent a jolt through my entire body like an electric shock.

Wow, how wonderful! o(  ̄▽ ̄ )o.

However, when I took a closer look, I was almost stunned.

Unexpectedly, Lila's school uniform and those black absolute territory stockings were tattered and torn, as if they had been in a fight.

Most importantly, she was injured, and not just in one place, but in several!

Some of the wounds were still bleeding.

I couldn't help but widen my eyes, somewhat unable to imagine what had happened to Lila in the past two days.

So where did these wounds come from?

Seeing that there was no time to lose, I quickly picked up Lila and climbed onto the carriage.

"Soldiers, get home as fast as you can, quick!"

"Yes, Your Royal Highness."

Seeing my panic, the soldiers on the carriage dared not delay and immediately cracked their whips, speeding off at full speed.

What should have been a five-minute journey was covered in less than three minutes.

When I got home, I jumped off the carriage and rushed straight into the house.

Xiaobai panicked when it saw me, so it didn't pounce on me like it did before.

Instead, they made way for me to go upstairs.

But that's what makes a good child. You're very perceptive, and as your owner, I'll definitely reward you handsomely.

"Lilith, come here for a second."

Although Lilith must have had a long and tiring day, I had no choice. Lira was seriously injured, and she was the only one here who knew healing magic, so I had to ask her to heal her.

For a noblewoman or girl, a scar could ruin her life.

So I don't mind her having scars, but she herself definitely wouldn't want them.

Therefore, I must do my best to ensure that her wound does not leave a scar.

First, Lilith spread two thick blankets on my bed and told me to put Lila on them.

Then she picked up the potion, and Lilith immediately began healing magic on the still-bleeding wound.

I was relieved after the wound shrank and the bleeding stopped.

"Fortunately, Your Highness, this young lady's injuries are minor and will not leave any scars, so you can rest assured."

After Lilith had thoroughly checked everything, she gave me her answer.

"Huh...that's good."

Seeing that Lila hadn't suffered any serious injuries, my anxiety instantly subsided.

"Recently, there have indeed been some unsettling rumors circulating in Allen City."

Louise had been looking at the door for a while when she spoke directly.

“Tell me about it, Louise.”

Louise has been traveling a lot lately, so she probably knows more information than we do. We should listen to her advice before making any decisions.

"Hmm... Recently, some lewd men have appeared in Allen City, including some mercenaries. They patrol various areas, looking for lone noble students, and then extort or even rape them..."

"how so……"

After hearing that, I couldn't help but cover my mouth.

Could it be that my lovely new harem member, Lila, has been defiled by those disgusting men?

No, absolutely not! (〃>皿<)!

"How about... we check Lira's body?"

I couldn't help but dare to put forward this bold idea... although it came about without any prior thought.

"Hmm? Your Highness, are you very concerned about this child?"

At this moment, Louise asked me, seemingly with some doubt.

"Well... sort of. She's the second-place student in the same special admissions program as me, so she's kind of a new friend of mine."

Well, isn't this explanation a bit far-fetched?

But I can't think of any other explanation for the time being, so this is the only way to do it.

“In that case, I support the princess’s choice. If this young lady wakes up and finds that her chastity has been defiled, wouldn’t she be tempted to commit suicide? So let’s check her now, just in case she has any extreme ideas.”

However, Lilith agreed with my approach.

That's true. If Lila's chastity is violated, and she reacts excessively, I'll knock her unconscious first.

Then, when she wakes up again, try to gently guide her; that would be a pretty good suggestion.

As expected of Lilith, the number one in my harem.

"Well then... I'll begin..."
