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

"Ah, no, that... um..."

"Speak your mind, don't beat around the bush. This princess hates those who aren't straightforward the most."

Despite being a tsundere herself, Elusia still said it that way.

"Oh, right! You...you don't like girls?"

"what?"

"No, I... I didn't mean anything by it. I just wanted to know your thoughts..."

"What are you thinking, you rascal?"

The silver-haired princess stared at Lorne, her brows furrowed.

If it were the current Elcia, she definitely wouldn't answer Lonnie's question. But the Elcia of the past had a more complex personality, and besides, she couldn't remember her experiences with Lonnie.

and so……

The girl replied, "Well, actually, this princess is bisexual. I don't mind whether someone is a boy or a girl."

"what?"

"Because I'm a normal princess too, I instinctively feel a bit of affection for heroes, but I'm very disgusted, even hate, men who are too promiscuous."

"Huh?"

"But compared to boys, girls are much easier to control, aren't they? They're so soft and cuddly, you could keep them at home and treat them like wives... But ordinary girls seem to be missing something."

"Uh?"

"What could it be? Hmm..."

The silver-haired princess sighed, as if lost in thought.

Chapter 89 Upper Prison Section

Although Elusia might not understand what she is saying due to her memory.

But even if Lonnies was slow to understand, she understood what Elusia meant!

This cunning and beautiful girl actually likes partners like herself... She is originally a boy, which satisfies Elusia's orientation, and then she was trained to be a little maid, so she can stay at home obediently without any worries about her attracting other men.

How cunning and despicable!

So Elusia has been this awful ever since she was a child!

Could it be that her transformation into a girl was part of her scheme?

Waaah...

……

But since the die is cast, there's no point in resisting.

Lonnies could only follow Elusia as they walked toward the prison's command area.

Compared to the lowest-level prison area and supply area, the prison's command area appears much more modern, with straight corridors and bright, fluid lighting, making it feel like the interior of a spaceship—it looks far more advanced.

The girls' journey was peaceful throughout. The command center was deserted, without a single person in sight, not even a robot.

The atmosphere was so quiet that you could almost hear a pin drop.

However, Lonnie felt uneasy, sensing that things weren't so simple.

……

"Hmm... we should be able to escape from here, right? But..."

Just as Lonnies reached a corner, she suddenly felt a chill down her back.

And then...

"Danger!"

Elusia was faster than him; the girl grabbed his wrist and tumbled him to the other side.

The spot where Lonnies had been standing was pierced by a laser beam.

Even the reinforced ceramic floor was melted, which shows how powerful the attack was... Lonnies felt a chill run down her spine, while Elusia quickly stood up and shielded herself behind her.

"Damn it, I can't see it, where did the attack come from?"

The girl frowned, and then another laser beam shot straight at her.

However, observing the situation, Lonnie's tail was standing upright (although she wasn't wearing a tail yet)... There was nothing at the laser's emission point; it was just an empty corridor.

(So, it's a ghost?)

Lonnie felt a chill run down her spine, but Elusia said:

"Damn it, it's a stealth weapon."

"what?"

"This thing must be a product of the previous era... Damn it... It's not easy to deal with!"

……

……

Realizing that the other party possessed the ability to become invisible, Elusia acted decisively.

She first led Lonnie to a secluded spot, then opened her mouth... and bit her own arm!

"Wow, Your Highness, what are you doing?!"

Seeing Elusia about to harm herself, Lonnie felt incredibly sorry for her! She quickly stepped forward and grasped the princess's wrist.

.

However, the obstruction of her movement caused the silver-haired princess to stomp her foot and angrily say:

"Hey little tool, don't block my blood-sucking!"

"Blood?"

"Hmph, this is the only way to defeat this kind of invisible enemy. As long as it's covered in blood, I can pinpoint its location!"

After a moment's thought, Lorne realized Elusia's plan.

Even if the enemy has become invisible, its objective mass and size will not disappear... As long as blood covers the other party's body, their location can be determined.

If that's the case...

……

Tear it apart!

With a sharp, slicing sound, bright red blood flowed out.

However, the blood didn't come from Elusia's body, but from Lonnie's arm... The girl summoned the Crystal Frost Dagger and mercilessly stabbed herself.

"you you!!"

This behavior left the silver-haired princess stunned.

She seemed never to have imagined that someone could hurt her so decisively, and that the wound was quite large, measuring over ten centimeters.

"Princess Lunis, please use it."

"Are you out of your mind? With so much blood, we can't stop it!"

"It's alright, my body has the ability to heal itself. I'm used to it by now."

"!"

Lonnies's intention was to reassure Elusia that she didn't need to worry; she could simply obtain the blood she needed from her own wounds.

But the silver-haired princess stood there, stunned.

She gazed at Lonnie, a complex and indescribable feeling stirring within her.

……

This girl...

Have you been doing this kind of thing on a regular basis?

This nonchalant attitude, despite the pain, is probably to keep me from worrying...

Ok……

Although I can't remember it anymore.

But it seems I've already...

Have you already found someone worth protecting for a lifetime?

……

……

……

Meanwhile, on the other side...

With unsteady steps, Lianlan finally arrived at the place Yicheng had mentioned.

This is the upper level of the prison, the brain of the entire prison.

Just like the rest of the City of Heroes, the prison's system seems to be fully automated by AI, so there are no offices for human use, only mechanical charging stations and many large computing centers.

(This area... I'm sure I've been here before!)

The closer Yicheng got to the center, the more familiar a feeling filled her heart.

Now, it seems she can be certain.

I not only came here, but I also lived here for a long time.

That wasn't as a prisoner.
