The Queen Of The Demon World
123. Demon Seed

“Retreat or I will finish you off!” ethelyne's orders were firm.

However, the monsters roared loudly and began to smash things around.

Ethelyne who saw it clucked. “Sucks once! Looks like you guys need to be taught a lesson!” He raised a holy sword and attacked those monsters.

“Stop!!”

Ethelyne who was about to slash at a monster instantly stopped when she heard a familiar voice, she turned her head and rounded her eyes in surprise. “Kathelyne?!”

Kathelyne walked towards Ethelyne in a plain black dress, the monsters immediately kneeling with one leg as a pedestal.

“Why..”.

“Why are you here?” ask Kathelyne flat.

“Why? I should have asked why! Have you gone crazy? Why do you want to attack people in the human world?!”

“Hng, why?” Kathelyne threw away her face with a look of disdain. “Humans like them don't deserve to live! Ethel, you should know. There are a lot of girls out there who commit suicide by being played! Do all men think the girl is a toy that can be replaced at will?!”

“Kathel, why are you..”.

“I'm sick of it! I've been holding everything for quite a while, I tried not to finish them off because of your request back then. But look what the result is! You love him with all your soul, but he! That damn guy is even married to another girl!” Kathelyne pointed at Eadric who was being hugged by Sela, she turned her gaze towards Ethelyne. “Why can't you understand? All humans are trash, Ethel. They are all liars who can't keep any promises! Please, please. Leave this human world, you don't always have to risk your life for them. Ethel, aren't you tired? Protecting people who don't even remember you at all!”

“Kathel... but, but this is a task-”

“True, this is your job! Then why? What if it's your job? Just because you're a holy girl doesn't mean you have to give up your life for someone else's sake!”

“Why can't you understand?!” ethelyne shouted with tears flowing. “This life of mine, this life of mine. Already tied to promise!” He lowered his head and looked at his hand that was holding the holy sword. “If, if I do not carry out my duties. Then why am I still alive?! For what, for what I became a holy girl. If I...” Ethelyne rubbed her face rough, she raised her sword and looked at Kathelyne seriously. “My life just means being a holy girl, Kathel. Even if you were half of my soul, I would still not allow you to injure a human! If you continue to be stubborn, then there is no other choice. I can only fight you!”

Kathelyne looked at Ethelyne in disbelief. “You, you fight me only for the sake of this weak human?”

“Kathel, looks like you forgot too. I am also a human being, even. I might not be able to defeat you with all my strength, but.. I can pull you to hell with me!” Ethelyne attacked Kathelyne blindly.

However, the girl simply continued to dodge without launching a counterattack.

“If you know you can't beat me, then why are you fighting me?”

“Shut! I do have limits as a human being, but all this time. I am happy to be able to live as an ordinary human being! Me...”

“Stop intending nosy! You and Mili always piss me off!”

“What does Miss know? Actually Her Majesty the Queen sa~ngat loves you, she just went forward to express it.”

Ethelyne's hands trembled uncontrollably, her pupils shrinking and trembling. He dropped his sword and threw the sword away, Ethelyne fell down while spewing blood.

“Ethel!” Kathelyne approached Ethelyne. “What happened? Are you all right? Why can you.”.

‘What, what happened?’ inner Ethelyne, his heartbeat was beating rapidly. He could hear nothing but his heartbeat, his vision began to blur. ‘I don't, use that much power. Then why..’.

“Ethelyne!”

~♥~

“If you can't cure it, then I'll finish you!”

“Shut! All because of your brother! If only he hadn't betrayed, I definitely wouldn't have intended to kill you!” reply Kathelyne angry.

“Jeez, why did this happen??”

Kathelyne and Zachary turned to look at the witch who looked surprised.

“What happened? Is Ethel okay? He wasn't seriously injured, was he?”

“Your Majesty, I know you love Miss Virgian. But you're not supposed to do things until this far.”

“What do you mean?? Don't say half-center!”

“There's a demon seed in Miss Virgian's heart, even more. This demon seed has grown and-”

“What?” kathelyne asked, her brain suddenly empty. “Seeds, demon seeds?”

“Do you not know? So it wasn't you who gave the demon seed to Miss Virgian?”

“Do you think I would do that crazy thing?! Even if I hate you, I won't hurt him. Moreover, that demon seed was threatening the life of a holy maiden. And, in the heart of it. Damn it! Who would dare to give the devil seed to Ethel!” Kathelyne gnashed her teeth in anger, her hands clenched tightly to make her nails pierce her palms, the blood coming out was black and flying around Kathelyne's hands. “Mili!”

Mili instantly appeared in a nightgown, she looked at Kathelyne annoyed. “What's the matter?”

“You, do you know who was near Ethel when I wasn't around? Is there someone who gave him something or whatever it is.”

“Hm, it doesn't seem to exist. What's wrong?”

“There are.. demon seeds in Ethel.”'s body.

“Oh, bag--what?!! Demon seeds?!” ask Mili in surprise. “Where? Where was the devil seed planted??”

“Di, heart.”

“Sial! Why in the heart?? If somewhere else, I might be able to cast it out with dark magic, but in the heart. It was impossible because the purest magic was also embedded in his heart, but why could there be demon seeds in Miss Ethel's body? I'm sure there's no suspicious person in and out of Miss Ethel's room, not to mention that. Low-level demons could not possibly plant demon seeds in her heart, as pure energy surrounded Miss Ethelyne's heart. But demon seeds can still be planted, I believe the person who planted this demon seed has a power that is at the same level as the Demon Emperor.”

“Emperor, demon emperor??” ask Kathelyne in shock.

“Yes, Your Honor. But what is the demon emperor here for?” muttered Mili while holding her chin thinking.

“What happened? How's Ethelyne doing?”

Everyone inside the room turned to the origin of the voice, the seventh prince. Eadric, walk in in haste.

“What are you doing here? Traitor!” Kathelyne stared at Eadric. “All this wouldn't have happened if you hadn't married that damn girl!”

“I..” Eadric looked down with a look of regret.

Kathelyne sighed while throwing her face away. “It sucks once, my hand itches to hit you!”

“How's sister Ethelyne doing?”
