After being reborn, I was turned into a slave girl by a princess.

"Yeah, like a little girl, a bit clumsy."

"Isn't she a little girl to begin with?"

"what?"

"Although it was a machine that dialed human service just now, the student who pressed pause last time was a little girl, wasn't she?"

"that……"

Hearing these words, Zhou Mixue was at a loss for words... Although her junior, Elusia, looked like a little girl, she was actually over a hundred years old.

So she had no choice but to say:

"Um, wasn't the last student a legal loli?"

"A legal loli...is someone like me, who's quite old but still acts like a cute little loli?"

"Ah... umm, shall we?"

Zhou Mixue nodded, though she also felt as if she had offended two people at the same time by confirming it.

"Ah, I see. She's probably currently in a state called 'loli fantasy'."

"Loli fantasy?"

"Well, this isn't a mental illness, but rather a stage in the cultivation of martial arts. I don't recommend that you forcibly interrupt her; it's better to pamper her instead."

"what……?"

"Because many people fondly remember the joy of being a child, right? With the love of parents, playing with friends, and the whole world being unknown and novel, no difficulties could stop you from moving forward."

"!"

"So, take advantage of this time and cherish it... (Just then, the screen flickered)... Huh, what's going on? Is the communication being interfered with?!"

"Lady Alice?"

Zhou Mixue quickly grabbed the tablet, but the image on the screen became increasingly distorted, and her movements became jerky.

The little girl looked panicked; she seemed to want to tell Zhou Mixue something. But it was too late.

"Quick...signal...you want...woof...woof!"

Then, the blonde little girl disappeared.

On the screen, a line of large characters reappeared.

The live agent service has ended. Please rate the service you received:

Alice's cuteness level: ☆☆☆☆☆

Alice's height: ☆☆☆☆☆

Problem resolved: ☆☆☆☆☆

……

……

Zhou Mixue was completely dumbfounded, but at that very moment...

The time-traveling ship's horn blared, and the one making the call was Luo Zhisheng, who was in the cockpit:

"There are enemies, Commander! How should we respond?!"

Chapter 45 The Dark Spiral

Hofa rubbed his temples.

For some reason, he has been experiencing a stinging sensation lately... Even though his head is covered by the Ice of the End Flame, he shouldn't be feeling any stinging.

"Is it because of... Princess Lornes?"

The mere thought of that girl's name filled Hofa with genuine sorrow.

In fact, even if ordinary demons don't know Lonnies's reputation, for them, who have lived for hundreds of years, it is definitely a headache-inducing name.

because……

One hundred years ago, General Caster officially launched his plan to seize Rainbow Abyss, and the first battle of the plan took place in the icy and snowy Snow Kingdom.

They bewitched General Klue into becoming an inside agent, activated ancient weapons as a vanguard, and even sent some elite warriors to the front lines.

But still...

Unable to seize the power of Yan Yuan.

Under Princess Lonnies' command, the dying warriors launched a final counterattack, and even General Kru was trapped in the underground prison, unable to escape for the rest of his life.

Princess Lorne was only 14 years old at that time, right?

And now?

Princess Lonnies not only changed her name to Elusia, but also attacked with the power of the Land of the End and the help of the demons.

After more than 100 years of tempering, her will should be almost perfect, and even General Caster would find it difficult to find her weakness.

and so……

Caster then sent himself to snipe here.

Whether we win or not is secondary; the key is to force out all of the opponent's trump cards and make them reveal more of Rainbow Abyss's power...

So from the very beginning, those three guys were just expendable pawns.

Mortak, though a key confidant of Castor, possesses an immortal body, making him ideally suited for this task.

Silent Leaf, originally an abandoned baby discarded by humans, was essentially worthless. However, she surprisingly gained the power of her clone, Tree Abyss, and to obtain this power, she must complete the mission assigned by Caster.

The Minotaur, though a product of an independent kingdom a thousand years ago, possesses immense strength, but is a brainless creature... If you lock this minotaur in a slightly complex underground labyrinth, it will never be able to escape.

and so……

"No, perhaps even I... am a pawn to be discarded?"

Hoffa smiled coldly, although due to the influence of the End Flame Ice, he could no longer remember much about the past.

However, he still remembers the original intention behind the establishment of the post-apocalyptic independent kingdom.

To create a nation led by the strong and absolutely guided by order and law.

In this country, power is the standard by which everything is measured. Technology, culture, economy, and education all serve power.

People are divided into different classes based on their strength, and all of society's resources are provided to the powerful.

However, this does not mean that the weak are not given a way to survive. In fact, many people at that time knew that many of the truly strong people came from among the weak.

and so……

Within the post-apocalyptic independent kingdom, there are numerous arenas, a vast quantity of untested black medicines, various hormones, and even drugs processed from fragments of alien decay.

If you eat these things, you will most likely become insane and brutal.

However, there is a small chance that you might overcome all of this and become an incredibly powerful and outstanding individual.

So that means...

Castor was originally a discarded pawn, wasn't he?

At first, no one would have thought much of this man with unkempt hair and eyes that he couldn't even open.

It wasn't until he personally killed his opponent and stood on the high platform forged from the iron skull that he revealed his extraordinary power.

He possesses extraordinary learning and analytical abilities, and seems to be able to reproduce and absorb the flesh and blood of his enemies. As a result, he rose through the ranks, not only becoming an S-class personnel, but also becoming the third director of the research center.

But just then, a rebellion broke out, and it became...

……

"Lord Hoffa, they've arrived!"

"!"

The girl's cry brought Hofa back to reality. He lowered his head and looked at Silent Leaf standing below the throne.

Just like when we first met, her body remained petite and frail. The difference was that Ji Zhiye now possessed power far exceeding what she had before.

"Yes, Silent Leaf, you, the Minotaur, and Mortak will go into battle together."

"What? You want to go with those two too? I can manage on my own!"

"This is an order."

"!"

"Remember, your task is simply to force the opponent to use more of their power, not to eliminate them."

"Lord Hofa, are you looking down on me?"

"..."

"Just watch closely! I've developed a new power specifically designed for this purpose. This time, no matter what tricks Elusia tries, I'll make her die here!!!"

……

After saying that, Ji Zhi Ye ran out to engage in battle.

But Hoffa knew...

Arrogance comes at a price.

Even General Caster wouldn't easily make a move before fully understanding his opponent's strength... let alone at a time like this.

Although Elusia seemed to be trapped by the forest killing array set up by Silent Leaf, it was only because it was the first time she had encountered such a trap and she was caught off guard and at a loss.

If she thinks carefully afterward, her opponent will surely find a way to break the deadlock. At that time, Ji Zhiye, who is in the middle of the formation, will very likely be killed by her in one blow.

(Slay?)

Imagining that possibility, Hofa slowly closed his eyes.

Then he opened his eyes, but a bitter smile appeared on his lips:

"Is Castor trying to use this method to make me fight with all my might?"
