Chapter 571: Do You Still Want to See Jie Luo?
As long as she could keep Lord Jie Luo’s last soul fragment, even if it meant offering her own body, enduring Qin Chu’s humiliation and torment, Loseweisse could bear it.
For Lord Jie Luo, she was willing to give everything.
And Loseweisse even felt this was very likely.
After all, that man Qin Chu was so despicable, shameless, and lecherous. He would definitely keep one of Jie Luo’s soul fragments to use as leverage against her.
But now, Loseweisse didn’t have the luxury to worry about so much. She had to protect this soul fragment first.
Seeing Loseweisse’s appearance, Qin Chu even felt a bit amused… Look, how proud, how arrogant this woman once was.
Although she would act all demure and submissive before him, Qin Chu knew very well this woman never truly respected him, never even saw him as a person.
In her eyes, he was just a tool for resurrecting Jie Luo.
Be his woman?
Don’t be ridiculous. That would make Loseweisse want to vomit, right?
Even just holding hands once, Loseweisse would probably use up several bars of soap afterward.
Even just a hug, Loseweisse would probably soak in the bath for several hours, as if only this could cleanse the scent of Qin Chu from her.
Such a proud, almost twisted woman, now actually begging to be his woman, just for a small thing in his hand. Was there anything more laughable than this?
If Qin Chu was the type to enjoy playing games, he might actually agree to Loseweisse’s offer.
After all, as long as he had Jie Luo’s soul fragment, Loseweisse would be like a dog with a collar and leash around its neck, at his mercy, allowing him to humiliate and toy with her.
Just thinking about that scene was quite exciting.
After getting tired of playing, he would completely push Loseweisse into the abyss, beyond redemption.
Unfortunately, Qin Chu wasn’t that kind of person.
Moreover, Loseweisse’s body currently held no meaning for Qin Chu at all.
The scene of his body being divided into six parts in his first life resurfaced in his mind.
His body parts sealed in various locations across the Heavenly Continent, his head sealed beneath the Holy City, enduring the trampling of all people.
The image in his mind gradually ignited his anger. The smile on Qin Chu’s face widened. For a time, the surroundings fell silent, as if entering a deathly still world.
Loseweisse’s eyes were wide, staring at the last soul fragment with almost mad greed and obsession, her gaze unwilling to move.
Just then, Qin Chu’s hand twitched… Crack.
The last soul fragment also turned into powder.
The last glimmer of light in Loseweisse’s eyes vanished completely at this moment, leaving only a hopeless grey.
Huu…
That’s it.
Destroying everything Jie Luo left behind was far more painful and despairing for Loseweisse than directly torturing her.
However, the torment for Loseweisse wasn’t just this.
Although satisfying, it could only be done once… Therefore, Qin Chu planned to give Loseweisse a little more hope, then personally crush it.
This process would definitely be very enjoyable.
At this moment, Atrice was scared silent. Although she was the Demon King’s daughter, in Atrice’s eyes, Qin Chu was the true demon.
Qin Chu’s gaze swept over. Atrice didn’t even dare move, her little face slightly pale.
Cold smiles played on the lips of Athena and Sylph.
Both knew what kind of person Jie Luo was; their past feelings had long vanished, leaving only the satisfaction of revenge.
Only Ekaterina’s brow was slightly furrowed, a hint of conflict in her crimson eyes.
Ekaterina was different from Athena and Sylph.
Athena and Sylph were pulled from the Evil God’s erosion by Qin Chu. They also already knew about the First Jie Luo’s plan, their feelings for Jie Luo long gone, replaced by hatred.
But Ekaterina hadn’t experienced these things. Ekaterina’s will was forcefully twisted by Qin Chu using the Love of a Thousand Years.
Ekaterina’s feelings for Jie Luo hadn’t diminished in the slightest; she merely transferred these feelings onto Qin Chu.
Big Shaye had said before that the Love of a Thousand Years’s alteration of the will wasn’t absolute.
Once strongly stimulated, for example, if he told Ekaterina the truth or crushed Jie Luo’s soul fragments before her eyes, it might cause a strong impact on Ekaterina, allowing her to break free from the Love of a Thousand Years.
But he had just consecutively crushed six fragments, completely without hiding it from Ekaterina. Yet, Ekaterina only showed a slight reaction, and this reaction wasn’t enough for her to break free from the Love of a Thousand Years’s effect.
What was going on?
Did Ekaterina ingest too much of the Love of a Thousand Years potion?
Or perhaps, the Love of a Thousand Years potion personally made by Big Shaye, the Dark Witch, was simply too potent, even this couldn’t make Ekaterina return to normal?
Although somewhat puzzled, Qin Chu didn’t dwell on this issue. His gaze quickly shifted back to Loseweisse.
To put it somewhat perversely, in Qin Chu’s eyes, Loseweisse’s current pained, despairing expression, her empty, dull, almost numb gaze, was simply too beautiful.
Even just appreciating this seemingly lifeless face brought Qin Chu pleasure.
In Loseweisse’s heart, all her hopes were shattered.
Without hope, even revenge was impossible… As long as that mysterious, black-dressed woman by Qin Chu’s side was still there… Of course, Loseweisse didn’t know Qin Chu’s strength was no longer inferior to Little Shaye’s. Even if she could regain the strength she had when confronting Augustus that night, she still had no chance of turning the tables.
Her numb, dull gaze fell on Qin Chu. She just wanted to resolve some doubts in her heart. Loseweisse’s lips trembled slightly: “When did you know… that we wanted to kill you…?”
“Very early on…” Qin Chu nodded honestly.
“Ekaterina, Athena, Sylph, who told you about them?” A mocking smile appeared on Loseweisse’s lips.
“None of them,” Qin Chu shook his head slightly: “I knew all this earlier than you imagine. When I first arrived in this world… no, before I even arrived in this world, I already knew about your plan.”
Hehe, talking nonsense, are you?
Do you have the ability to predict the future?
How could he know about her plan before even arriving?
“When did Ekaterina become yours?” Loseweisse sighed. All her hopes were gone; she already knew her fate.
Qin Chu wasn’t a man of mercy.
“Actually, on the night… ah, no, on the night Ekaterina first dragged me into the room, she already, step by step, became mine.”
“Completely mine, that was probably a few days later, before Athena arrived at the Imperial City, before we went to rescue Benson,” Qin Chu answered honestly: “By the way, I killed Benson.”
Upon hearing this, Loseweisse’s expression remained calm, as if she had already expected it.
But Atrice was startled. Benson? Wasn’t he killed by her brother Lomond? How could it be Master who killed him?
Could it be, there has always been some connection between Lomond and Master?
“When did Sylph become yours?”
“Remember Airi and Eileen? On the day they abandoned Sylph…”
“What about Athena?”
“Athena and I are quite compatible. There were some hints before, but the real turning point should be the day Muse died…”
Loseweisse laughed self-deprecatingly, recalling everything that had happened.
Because of Sylph’s testimony, she began to suspect Airi and Eileen.
After Athena returned from the Snow Chain Mountains, telling her about Airi and Eileen’s assassination attempt, and presenting a soul fragment, Airi and Eileen were expelled… Thinking back now, from that moment on, everyone around her was a spy.
Ekaterina, Sylph, Athena, all deliberately placed by Qin Chu’s side. In this team, the only one who truly wanted to resurrect Jie Luo was herself.
To manipulate and monitor her, he actually planted three times the number of spies. That fellow Qin Chu was truly excessive.
When she hugged them, discussing the excitement of resurrecting Jie Luo, expressing her determination, outlining the plan, those three must have been secretly laughing, perhaps even turning around and telling Qin Chu everything about her plan.
They even cooperated with her all along. Recalling how, surrounded by Ekaterina and the other two, the hard-won soul fragments were placed in her hands, vaguely making her the center, and she even felt proud and smug because of this, truly incredibly foolish.
No wonder after that, collecting soul fragments suddenly became so much easier, easily obtaining them… All of this was orchestrated by Qin Chu from behind.
And she, foolishly, precisely stepped into the trap Qin Chu set beforehand, without missing a single step.
Even her attempt to seize the position of Pope of the Holy See was casually mentioned by Ekaterina. This must also have been Qin Chu’s instruction.
As a result, the Saintess became a traitor, and the Pope fell.
All the benefits were taken by Qin Chu.
Being played for a fool for so long, truly pathetic.
She was like a pitiful insect, constantly toyed with in Qin Chu’s palm.
Huu…
Loseweisse suddenly let out a long sigh. At this moment, she gradually calmed down, no longer as agitated as before.
What good was hatred? What good was unwillingness? What good was despair?
She could do nothing anymore.
“You killed Benson?” Loseweisse asked neurotically.
“I just answered this question… but I don’t mind answering again. Yes,” Qin Chu nodded: “Ah, right, there’s something I must tell you… Benson… well, how should I put it? He seemed to really like you.”
Loseweisse nodded slightly: “I know.”
“No, no, you don’t know…” Qin Chu immediately shook his head: “I mean, in Benson’s storage ring… well, he kept a large number of clothes you wore and discarded, mainly white stockings, far more than just the one you saw him holding. He even set up a small altar in his storage ring, carefully placing all the stockings you wore there and worshipping them.”
“Even though he knew you didn’t like him, before his death, he still begged me to spare your life. Truly touching.”
Touching? Not at all! Loseweisse’s lips twitched slightly, an inexplicable urge to vomit rising.
Not just one?
And even worshipping them?
What a disgusting hobby, inexplicably nauseating.
Even just thinking of the name Benson made her want to puke.
Loseweisse quickly changed the subject:
“What about Ronald?”
“I killed him…” Qin Chu admitted frankly again. A man should take responsibility for his actions: “The information about Ronald, I provided it to Lomond.”
“He was quite obedient and very strong. Although a bit stupid, as long as you planned his path for him, he would complete it better than anyone.”
“Ronald truly was a madman. Clearly, he had already entertained thousands of Demon Beasts, his body completely ravaged, yet he still tried to kill me.”
Atrice’s expression turned strange. She also wanted to vomit.
At that time, she had seen Ronald’s state from afar. That… ahem, truly a terrible sight, even from a Demon Beast’s perspective.
“You also killed Muse…”
“Of course, I don’t deny it,” Qin Chu nodded: “I crushed a soul fragment of Jie Luo before him, and that guy actually knelt on the ground, trying to lick the crushed powder into his mouth.”
“Don’t you think that’s perverted? The fragments of a soul fragment are basically equivalent to ashes, and he actually wanted to eat them?”
“Airi, you also caused her death?”
Qin Chu subconsciously nodded: “Of course, I also… Ah, no…”
Suddenly, Qin Chu quickly changed his tune, shaking his head vigorously: “I didn’t cause Airi’s death. At most, I just didn’t save her, watched her die. The one who truly caused Airi’s death was her own sister. It has nothing to do with me.”
“But her sister, Eileen, did die at my hands.”
“Karsus, you also caused his death, right?” Loseweisse raised an eyebrow, name after name coming from her mouth.
These were all deceased members of the former Hero Squad.
“How should I put it? I bear some responsibility for Karsus’s death, but… the true cause of death was his own foolishness. I just left the marks of the Church of the Earth Mother Goddess and the Holy See on Benson’s corpse. Who knew this idiot, without even thinking, would directly go and slaughter thousands of Holy Knights of the Holy See… If I remember correctly, those Holy Knights seemed to be your subordinates.”
“I’m very sorry for the deaths of your subordinates.”
“You also know how the Holy See deals with such blasphemers… Then the Death Knight completely succumbed to darkness. I gave him his final purification.”
“Of course, before purifying him, I told him the whole truth. He was very moved and wanted to thank me properly.”
These deceased teammates, indeed, all directly or indirectly died at Qin Chu’s hands.
They wanted to assassinate Qin Chu, yet they were all killed by him… Perhaps, just like her, only at the moment of death would they learn the truth?
Loseweisse closed her eyes, waiting for death.
She knew her existence was now completely worthless.
Being able to resolve some of the doubts in her heart before death was already quite satisfactory.
Qin Chu wouldn’t allow her to live.
But after waiting for a while, Loseweisse didn’t feel the expected pain. She opened her eyes with some confusion, only to find the smile on Qin Chu’s face had become even stranger.
Inexplicably, she trembled all over.
“So… Loseweisse…”
“Do you still want to see Jie Luo?”
