Re:Zero -Starting Life in Zero

Regulus stood there, his brow furrowed, repeatedly muttering the words "Eight Li Family".

Looking at the proud, noble, and untainted Priscilla before him, the rage in his heart gradually subsided.

A perverse possessiveness and a thirst for perfection surged once more, his eyes shifting between surprise and greed.

Regulus took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing his surging anger, and his crimson eyes fixed on Priscilla once again.

He adopted a condescending posture, his tone carrying an undeniable air of authority:

"Since you are still a pure virgin, I will give you another chance."

"Woman, be my wife, you have no other choice."

He was convinced that such a perfect and pure woman would eventually submit to him, completely unaware of the growing disgust in her eyes.

Upon hearing this, Priscilla let out a contemptuous sneer, lightly touching her lips with her folding fan, her eyes full of disdain and mockery.

She looked down at Regulus with a resolute and arrogant tone:

"Ha~ I really don't understand where your confidence comes from? You're so mediocre."

"Both your appearance and personality are below average. To your disgusting request, my answer is only two words—'Damn it.'"

The word "rejection" shattered Regulus's last bit of patience.

He was an extremely self-centered person who could not tolerate the slightest disobedience. His murderous intent suddenly erupted, and his cold aura swept across the entire church.

Regulus's eyes were fierce as he uttered the fatal words, one by one: "Then I can only ask you to die."

Before he finished speaking, his time-manipulation powers began to surge, the air itself seemed to freeze, and the threat of death instantly enveloped Priscilla.

"Wait, wait!"

Upon seeing this, Sylphy's expression changed slightly. No longer caring about maintaining her composure, she quickly rushed to Priscilla's side.

She first reached out to stop Regulus from exploding, then turned and rushed to Priscilla's side, whispering in her ear, her voice full of anxiety and helplessness:

"Are you out of your mind? We agreed you'd pretend to agree first, why did you suddenly change your mind?"

Priscilla frowned, glancing disgustedly at Regulus, whose face was ashen, and retorted to Sylphie in a low voice, her tone full of resistance:

"That's disgusting! Are you deliberately playing a trick on me?"

"Please, just nod first, and I'll let you beat him to death in a bit."

Sylphie was so anxious that beads of sweat appeared on her forehead. She was afraid that Priscilla would completely enrage Regulus and ruin all their plans, so she could only plead in a low voice.

Priscilla looked at Sylphie's anxious expression and then glanced at Regulus, whose murderous intent was growing stronger. She snorted impatiently.

She haughtily raised her chin, looked at Regulus again, her tone still somewhat reluctant and aloof, but she relented:

"Very well, very well, you mortal, I am willing to become your wife. Would you give your life for me?"

Regulus's murderous intent suddenly froze, and the rage on his face vanished instantly, replaced by a triumphant and obsessive joy.

He looked at Priscilla, proud yet ultimately bowing her head, and felt that only such a noble woman was worthy of him.

He was both arrogant and ultimately succumbed to his own desires, making it difficult to satisfy his conquering ambitions.

Regulus immediately burst into laughter, his tone full of confidence:

"Very good. Husbands and wives are meant to share life and death. I will give you my true heart."

As soon as the words were spoken, a subtle vibration rippled through the air.

An invisible, intangible force moved through the air, quietly penetrating her skin and merging directly into Priscilla's body.

That was the core of Regulus's power over time, and the source of his immortality.

This heart will only reside in the body of the person he considers his wife.

He can then manipulate his own or other things' time at will.

But as the sun's favorite, Priscilla is extremely sensitive to any intrusion of evil during the day when she is bathed in sunlight.

Priscilla's brows furrowed instantly, and her cold voice shattered the church's deathly silence:

"Green, what you desire seems to be within me."

"Green?"

Regulus's ecstatic expression froze instantly, and he unconsciously murmured the name.

The next second, the color drained from his face, his eyes widened, and he roared uncontrollably:

"It's...it's that person!"

"Where is he? Where is he?!"

He looked around frantically, a sense of unprecedented panic surging within him.

Priscilla didn't even spare him a glance; she clenched her fist in the air, and blazing golden flames suddenly rose up.

A sun sword engraved with sun patterns suddenly appeared, its scorching light instantly dispelling all the cold and prejudiced atmosphere in the church.

Her eyes were cold and sharp. Without the slightest hesitation, she turned the sword tip around and plunged it straight into her own heart without any hesitation!

The crimson skirt swayed slightly, but the girl didn't even frown.

When the Yang Sword was pulled out again, a heart covered with black patterns was found pierced through the scorching blade.

That was precisely the manifestation of Regulus's power as a minor king.

"This is disgusting...take it away!"

Priscilla frowned in disgust and flicked her wrist.

With a slight tremor of the Yang Sword, the still-dying heart was thrown directly at Green, who was disguised as Sylphy.

"No--!"

Regulus let out a heart-wrenching scream, his pupils contracting violently.

If this heart is damaged, his power to manipulate time will be reduced from infinity to 5 seconds.

"Damn it! How did you know?! How dare you scheme against me! You all deserve to die!"

Regulus went completely mad, and his time-manipulating power, which had brought everything to a standstill, went berserk without restraint.

The air, dust, and scattered rubble inside the church all froze, transforming into countless deadly blades. Dragging his swaying body, he charged madly at the two with a world-destroying ferocity!

At this moment, the original appearance of "Sylphy" slowly dissipated, and the girl Grin revealed her original appearance.

Green raised his eyes, his gaze completely calm, and simply raised his hand.

An invisible hand suddenly appeared from the void and caught the pitch-black heart with perfect accuracy.

"What a stinky man's thing, I don't want it."

Green parted his thin lips slightly, his tone full of indifference and disdain.

With a thought, the hand that could not be missed, suspended in mid-air, suddenly tightened, its five fingers exerting force as if crushing a fragile piece of glass.

With a soft "plop," the heart that carried all of Regulus's obsession and immortality was instantly crushed into countless black fragments, which vanished without a trace on the wind.

"Aaaaaah! I'm going to kill you all!"

Seeing his second heart being crushed, Regulus immediately went berserk.
