As the daughter of the village chief, she naturally knew more than most about what happened recently. She was already aware that Black-hearted Princess was here.
By now, there were 2 scourges within the Empire: Seventh princess and Black-hearted Princess.
Compared to the seventh princess who never left Jade City, she was naturally more fearful of the Black-hearted Princess. And there it was. Angelica became hysterical and screamed uncontrollably the moment she saw Yaeger.
If she had known that Black-hearted Princess would wake up this early and appear at the village entrance, she would rather die than go outdoors at this moment.
"I'm not going to eat you. You don't have to be scared." Yaeger stopped and smiled gently, refreshing the souls of anyone who saw it.
Unfortunately, Angelica couldn't perceive Yaeger's friendliness at all since she was already prejudiced and had terrible Favorability.
‘So scary. This must be a demon's smile!'
She unconsciously hugged her shoulders and backed off. Her face became paler as her brow broke out in cold sweat.
It was obvious to see that she was mortally terrified.
"I am Lili, Deputy chief The Royal Knights. Lady, we'd like to talk to you. "At this moment, Lili approached her and identified herself.
Hearing that, Angelica examined Lili and realized that she was indeed the nationwide idol—Double-axe Lili. She instantly breathed a sigh of relief.
Since she was here, surely the Black-hearted Princess wouldn't do anything to her.
‘I guess people in the village are really biased against me.' On the other hand, Yaeger felt a little depressed.
In Jade City, those NPCs would deliberately avoid her, at most. They would never act mortally terrified upon noticing her presence, like here.
As if they had seen a demon in the flesh.
"After changing hands many times, the information and exploits of a person will eventually become more and more exaggerated." Yaeger whispered.
She then glanced at Lili. In situations like these, it was definitely better for her to handle it.
"Your excellency, Lili. How may I help you?" Angelica bowed slightly and spoke respectfully.
She dared not to show disrespect as she was currently dealing with an affluent individual.
"Is the thing behind your neck a birthmark?" Lili skipped the pleasantries and went straight to the point.
"Birthmark?" Angelica touched her neck in confusion. "I don't have a birthmark though."
"I guess it appeared recently?" Lili then looked at Yaeger and said, "I think that's it."
Yaeger nodded, "Indeed."
Angelica was confused by their words. At the same time, she realized that Lili seemed to be on very good terms with the Black-hearted Princess.
‘Now I remember, the villagers said she came to the village along with a young girl… Turns out the young girl is Lili! Wait, I remember the hotel staff said that they stayed in the same room. What's their actual relationship? Could it be…?'
Angelica became deeply paranoid and her expression changed constantly.
Then, she suddenly felt horror, as if being plunged into a wolf's den and was surrounded by wolves!
"Poor girl." At this moment, Lili spoke without any hint of mercy.
"Good knight, what do you mean by that?" Angelica returned to her senses and asked.
"I'm saying that you're about to die.” Lili said.
Wham!
Hearing that, Angelica's body trembled constantly like she was struck by lightning.
"You… Why would you say that…"
No one would be happy if someone else told them that they were about to die. Angelica was definitely displeased but she couldn't express her frustration since the person in front of her was influential. Hence, she could only bottle up her true feelings.
Yaeger couldn't help but smile bitterly as a response. She initially assumed Lili to be very reliable, but it ended up with her offending the other person within the first minute.
"Calm down first. Let's find a private place and I'll explain it to you." Yaeger retracted her smile and spoke solemnly.
The Starfall Disease would affect Alicia's and her future gains.
Even if Alicia successfully seized the throne, she would only claim a devastated Empire if this plague managed to infest the country.
Now that she had a chance to find the source of the plague and eliminate it outright, Yaeger would naturally capitalize on this opportunity.
Ending the crisis before it even began in order to minimize the potential losses!
"I… I see. Let's talk about it in my home." Angelica realized that the situation was complex after noticing Yaeger's expression.
She was convinced that the Black-hearted Princess wouldn't say these things to her because she was bored.
Rumor had it that the Black-hearted Princess was the embodiment of greed. She would only do things that benefited her!
‘I don't think I have anything in my home that's worth her attention, right? Wait a minute, maybe the things she's aiming for… Is my pure and untouched body?' With that in mind, Angelica realized that she was walking into her own grave!
Fear! Extreme terror!
"It's getting late. Lead the way." Yaeger spoke at this moment.
"Ahhh!" Angelica was instantly startled. "Are you that thirsty?"
"Huh?" Yaeger was deeply confused and left without a clue.
"Thirsty what?" Lili was puzzled.
"No… It's nothing. I'll lead the way." After speaking, Angelica bit her lip as if she had no tears left to cry.
‘You're lying even at this moment. As expected of the Black-hearted Princess! Oh God, please save me!'
Angelica's home wasn't large in particular but it had fancy decoration when compared to the rest. In the living room, Angelica was about to prepare some tea for them and also mentally prepare herself.
After all, she knew she would be subjected to cruel torture soon enough. ‘Two on one. Such degeneracy!'
"You don't have to serve us." Yaeger spoke after seeing Angelica picking up a teapot.
"Let's get down to business." Lili added.
"Are you guys in that much of a hurry?" Angelica was instantly flustered as her face blushed deeply.
"It's very urgent." Yaeger and Lili spoke at the same time.
They were truly in a hurry. After taking care of the plague, they had to return to Jade City in order to deal with the underground maze. They were definitely short on time.
If they dawdled around and wasted another day here, they would be left with even less time to act.
Fortunately, Yaeger had already reached Level 30. So, it wouldn't be impactful if they waste a little more time.
"Can't you give me some time to prepare myself mentally?" Angelica's body trembled as tears flashed in her eyes.
"No, it's not going to be harmful to you anyway. For the time being." Yaeger said.
"Don't worry." Lili said.
Hearing that, Angelica was instantly plunged into hopelessness.
"I… I understand." She bit her lips and slowly unbuttoned her shirt. Her hands trembled heavily as tears started to flow out of her eyes.
Yaeger and Lili tilted their heads at the same time while feeling deep confusion.
‘We're about to talk about something serious but you're taking off your clothes. What are you doing?'
"You… Even if you claim my pure and untouched body, you'll never claim my innocent heart!" Angelica exposed her alluring figure as she took off her top. Aside from some shyness, her expression was also filled with determination.
Although she could no longer retain her purity, she would do everything she could to shield her heart from corruption!
"Perhaps you misunderstood something?"
However, her determination and force of will only resulted in indifference from Yaeger and Lili.
"You're not pure." Lili said.
"Huh?" After hearing their words, Angelica blinked her eyes and instantly came to realization. Her face was as red as a ripe tomato while smoke was about to seep out of her skull.
‘Ah, It's so embarrassing! I want to die!'
