Shadow Monarch: Heroines Could Hear My Thoughts?!

Chapter 217- Shadow Monarch Origin Domain (Part 1)

"... Huh?!" Rin jumped back in shock as he saw the naked silhouette of Eisheth approaching him seductively. If it wasn't for the fact that Rin had grown some kind of tolerance toward beautiful women, he wasn't sure if he could even hold himself back from jumping on her and ravaging her body.

"I want to break your child." The queen repeated.

"What the... Why would you want that?! Wait, why do you think I will even want to do that?!"

"Hm? You don't want to?" Eisheth asked as she tilted her head adorably.

"Of course not!"

"Why? Am I not attractive enough?"

"No, that's not it. I have a lover and I can't betray her trust. Besides, I barely know you." Rin tried to keep a fairly casual expression.

The reason he didn't outright refuse her without any explanation is because he knew that she could erase him from existence with a thought and he didn't want that to happen. In the end, the queen was still his enemy and someone he quite frankly hated.

"Your lover is in the human world while you're here. She will never know." Eisheth didn't seem that bothered by the fact that Rin was in a relationship. In fact, she didn't even bother to wait as she closed the distance between her and Rin.

"No." The latter's tone grew colder and colder as he glared at Eisheth.

"Are you sure, Rin? I'm sure with power, I can easily make you do what I want."

"Didn't you say that I'm your master? Wouldn't forcing your master to do something he doesn't want to be a breach of the rules?" Rin asked as he stepped back only to end up stumbling and falling on the bed.

"It is. But, I'm in love with my master and as such, I want to bear his children. Imagine how our kids could turn out to be. They could conquer this whole world and become the writers of history itself for generations to come."

Finally, Eisheth reached Rin and sat on his lap with her chest facing him directly. All Rin had to do was extend his arm and knead her breasts and his carnal desires will take over him. Eisheth knew this very well and she was going to make full use of that however possible it was. In her eyes, men are all the same, a bunch of animals that seek their desires first and foremost.

She loathed all men, demons or humans, but, Rin was a different matter. He was her future master and the person she swore to serve no matter what. So, bearing his children wasn't really something she was forced to do.

But, in a shocking turn of events, Rin didn't do what she thought he would. Instead, he coldly looked at her and asked.

"You do know that I don't carry a shred of favorable intentions toward you, right?"

"Hm?"

"You... have killed someone that's dear to a person I care about." He said coldly.

"Oh? I did?"

Rin extended his arms and grabbed Eisheth by the shoulders before he quickly turned them around, making the queen fall on the bed with him on the top.

"I know that you are way stronger than me. But, can the queen really take a sword stab right to the heart? Or even worse, get absorbed by my shadows." He said as he formed a dark orb on his hand.

"Ohoh? Are you intending to kill me?"

"I'm very enticed to do so. If it wasn't for the fact that I need you in order to go back to the human world, I would've never allowed this opportunity to escape my hands."

"So, if I give you the way to get back to the human world, you would end my life right there and then?"

"If I can, then yes. But, with your power, I doubt my attempts will succeed." Rin said with a smile.

Although what he was doing now was very risky, he had a plan that could potentially solve most of his problems. However, it was filled with countless hurdles, and threatening the queen was one of them. But, as they say, the higher the risk, the higher the reward.

"I see... Well, go ahead. Kill me."

"Hm?"

"Kill me. I already told my servants about you and made sure they will tell you how you can go back if you ask them. Now, kill me."

"Wait, when did you..." Raising an eyebrow, Rin realized something. "When you left a few minutes ago. You went to tell them about this? So, you predicted what I will do exactly."

"Fufufufu! I have a good head between my shoulders. Alas, my life ends here." Then, Eisheth extended her neck, allowing Rin to easily slit it with a dagger if he wanted to.

'This woman...'

It was not a joke. Eisheth was ready to die simply because Rin wanted to. This was something that only someone with a deep, unwavering loyalty will even entertain for a second.

"Why...?"

"Why what?" The queen asked with a confused expression.

"Why are you this loyal to me?"

"..." Eisheth stared at Rin for a long time silently as if she didn't think he would ask such a question.

"Pfft!" Then, she suddenly started laughing. "You are an odd one, Rin."

"Hm?"

"Even though I know you better than anyone else, you still surprise me. I wonder how is that possible? Are you perhaps an ever-changing enigma that doesn't abide by any rules?"

Rin didn't comprehend what she meant at all. Her words were mostly spoken to herself and not addressing him properly.

After that, she pushed Rin to the side gently and stood up before she picked up her robe and wore it.

"Follow me. I want to show you something. That will explain everything."

"Show me something? What is it?"

"The origin of this world. The place where everything was born and where everything will possibly end in the future. The Shadow Monarch Origin Domain."
