Zongman: Beginning with the Killer Queen
Chapter 584 Magic Eye Collection Train
“…”
Alterluqi’s body froze.
The cold expression on the girl’s delicate face did not change at all, but in this moment of silence, under Roland’s question, some kind of unusual and amazing courage was emanating.
Such a reaction made Roland smile slightly.
——Although Alterluqi performed very well, even when faced with the matter of wearing a maid costume, she was basically a subordinate who was unwilling but had to obey.
But Roland knew very well that the girl had never let go of her arrogance in her heart.
This does not mean that her previous performance was all pretended. On the contrary, the attitude and emotions that Heiji showed before were real and pure, completely from the heart.
But these emotions are more out of a kind of active sacrifice, just like the candidates who stayed up late to review for the exam.
Although they would complain about being tired and asking for trouble in the process, subconsciously, the candidates felt that this behavior was valuable, so they would not really feel touched by it.
This is what Alterluqi is now.
Her goal was to cancel the contract and take back her own power.
When her opponent was Roland, she knew she had no capital to fight, so she could accept paying some price to make a comeback.
Anyway, as long as she regained her power, she had plenty of choices, whether to retreat or to organize forces to make a decision later.
This was the glorious record of Altuluqi in the past years and the pride formed by the depths of her blood.
Although her style of doing things was a bit like the solitary style of the ancestors born in the new era, as one of the oldest dead apostles, in the other world, Hei Ji really had territory, the ruler of the castle, and a real princess.
After all, the reason why the original 27 ancestors of the dead apostles were established was that these immortals established factions and played a game of power struggle in order to get rid of boredom.
And such a tenacious mentality was naturally not a scene that Roland was happy to see.
Just like one of the important reasons why Altluqi chose to follow him was to stay alert and test whether Roland's behavior towards her was to plant a chess piece that could be used at random.
Roland did have bad intentions towards Altluqi to some extent... However, this bad intention was not because of her identity or power, but because of her.
Women like Altluqi, who are always in a strong position, will only feel shaken and have flaws in their hearts when they encounter a complete defeat.
Once they find an opportunity, the opponent will turn this defeat into nourishment and grow further spiritually.
Heiji's performance in the past two days is the best example.
Roland did not impose any additional restrictions, and he had Fu Fu as a bottom-line measure to deal with the contract, but under such circumstances, the girl still gave up the tempting option of getting away, took the initiative to endure the reversal of status, and followed the enemy.
While rapidly adapting to her role, her willpower has undoubtedly increased significantly compared to before.
If she could successfully retrieve the power that had been subtly sublimated by absorbing Roland's blood, then Alterluqi would most likely completely get rid of the title of Princess and even march towards the throne of the Moon King.
Although it would not be a bad thing to use absolute strength to play with the reborn Black Princess again and turn the other party's plan of dying rather than surrendering and destroying both sides into a luxury.
But for those who can't block the road and even the enemy is not a weakling, Roland usually doesn't have such bad thoughts... or not to this extent.
What he wants is to open a small door for himself to enter and exit at any time before Alterluqi recovers.
So, now he keeps the initiative and gradually breaks the opponent's bottom line.
As long as he takes the first step, no matter how small it is, he will fall completely into the entrance of the abyss where there is no turning back.
A glimmer of light flashed in Roland's pupils, revealing a playful smile.
"If you don't adapt from now on, with your personality, you will definitely reveal your flaws, right?"
"...Indeed."
Altluqi frowned and nodded.
"But - what if I refuse?"
For Altluqi, being taken advantage of by Roland with a contract or wearing a maid outfit was just a temporary sacrifice.
Although she was extremely ashamed, if it was not in a form that completely destroyed her dignity, she could use the excuse of the goal to convince herself.
But the only thing that Heiji couldn't accept so easily was the master-servant relationship.
She was created by the King of the Moon, but was identified by him as a spare that had not reached the level of welcoming him.
Facing Zhu Yue who was above her, the girl both admired and feared the other's power, and wanted to surpass it to prove herself.
For this reason, although there was no ambition to revive Zhu Yue's glory, which was our unshirkable ambition, Altluqi also pursued the illusion of obsession and built the Heiji faction, which was the actual pinnacle among the Dead Apostles.
Although the title of Master is not as irritating to Altuluchi as Higashikata Josuke's crew cut, it is still a taboo that touches her bottom line.
However——
"You don't like the title of Master?"
Roland showed a puzzled expression: "It's not that there are no other options, such as Master, but if you can't accept this, call me Dad..."
"I didn't ask you to explain other options! And isn't the last title more like cosplay? It has even surpassed cosplay and reached the level of erotic play!"
The calm expression that Kuroji had managed to control was suddenly broken.
She glared at Roland fiercely, took a deep breath, raised her head again and asked.
"I mean, what are you going to do if I refuse to use a title that acknowledges the relationship?"
Her crimson pupils contained the sharpness of a sword, just like a flower blooming alone in the biting cold wind, with a mind-shaking charm.
"So you are referring to this..."
Roland looked like he suddenly realized something.
Then, he answered without hesitation.
"Of course nothing is done."
"Hey, why?"
This unexpected answer made Heiji slightly startled.
"Because the relationship between us is that you are unilaterally dependent on me."
Roland tilted his head, as if he didn't understand why Eltrucci raised this question.
"You need to give me rewards to pay the price of using power, and you need to follow me to find opportunities to terminate the contract. From the beginning to the end, I only make slight adjustments based on what you have to pay, according to the party who is needed. That’s all.”
"The choice was always yours, wasn't it?"
"This title used to disguise is the same. Anyway, when someone detects an abnormality and is tempted or attacked, you are the one who needs to use the power. I will still be rewarded then."
"Since I won't lose no matter what, why bother intervening so much?"
No mercy, candid words that are a bit harsh.
It would have been impossible for other ancestors of the Dead Apostles to endure it any longer.
Being treated like a clown on the stage with an almost contemptuous generosity, only through the death and blood of the enemy can this anger be vented.
For Heiji, who is far more arrogant than other ancestors, it would not be surprising if she was laughed at in front of her face like this, even if it exploded like a powder keg.
However, although the girl's eyes had become cold again, Roland didn't feel even the slightest bit worried in his heart.
In the final analysis, that's all before, but now Elteluki has experienced a series of incidents such as losing her first kiss, being seen naked, and being forced to wear a maid uniform.
After making so many sacrifices and paying so many sunk costs, if there is not even a clue to restore the lost power, ordinary people will be unwilling to vomit blood, let alone Eltrucci.
Because even though she touched the bottom line in a subtle way, Eltrucci did not reject it without thinking like she did with the previous nun uniform.
After all, she understood some truths in the contract and gave up some illusions. She recognized that Roland's hard power was worthy of this title.
What's more, the camouflage effect of this thing is indeed extremely outstanding.
——The girl now no longer has the power that always followed her. She has put on a maid outfit again, and her long black hair is tied into a high ponytail.
When she saw herself in the mirror for the first time, even Eltrucci herself felt a little dazed.
If she really pretends to be like a maid, the black and white knights under her command will probably think that they have recognized the wrong person when they meet again.
Kuro no Princess will actually become someone's maid?
Even her mortal enemy, the calculating Lord Bai Yi, would not believe such rumors.
And such a delicate disguise is as important to where she is going next as an elemental bottle is to ashes.
Eltrucci rolled her eyes slightly and moved her gaze to Roland's pocket.
There, there was a black envelope with half of it exposed.
The crystal-like paper is pressed with bright red beeswax. At first glance, the seal with the theme of a wheel and an eyeball seems to be related to the angel of the Cross. Only those who know the inside will understand that this is actually a symbol with a long history.
Kuro no Hime-kun, who was born with almost everything, is always used to looking at things from a more subjective perspective.
But maybe it's because the bottom line has been constantly being exceeded in the past few days, or maybe it's because I'm too eager to regain my strength.
Erteluqi rarely let her emotions overcome her rationality, and she kept making excuses in her heart like she was trying to defend herself.
After all, the Moon King, who is too perfect for the world, has overturned, let alone the life living inside the world?
Yes, such action is necessary.
"So, Eltrucci, what are you going to choose?"
Roland didn't try to persuade her anymore, but just stared at the girl quietly, as if waiting for her to make a decision.
"...Perverted maid control"
Eltrucci murmured in a low voice and tightly grasped the lace skirt of her maid uniform with her little hands.
The girl's pretty face flushed, and under Roland's hot and expectant gaze, she turned her head to the side, sighed helplessly, and opened her red lips lightly.
"--host……"
Her voice was as hazy and soft as when she woke up from a dream, like a wisp of smoke drifting away.
Even at such a close distance, it was difficult to hear clearly what the girl had just said, but the corners of Roland's mouth rose unconsciously.
"I'm sorry, because the voice is too low, could you please say it again?"
"...!"
The girl raised her head with a face of shame and anger, and the fire of anger was brewing in her jewel-like clear pupils.
Although there was still some blush on her face, her eyes still showed cold anger.
Fufu's ears were already standing up like antennas, and she looked like she was asking for a beating. How could Roland, who could kill her in one move, not hear it clearly?
Although she was pretending to sigh, she could still see the other party's complacency from the smile on her lips.
"I say - Master!"
Perhaps because she was so desperate, Altluki didn't have so many scruples.
"Master, Master, Master!"
She kept repeating in a voice that was almost gritting her teeth.
"Are you satisfied with this?"
More than satisfied.
Roland felt as if he had been developed with new XP.
Maid play was not a new way of playing for him. After all, in the gains he had just made when he crossed over, Einzbern, who was fully accepted by him, was an expert in artificial maids.
But maybe because there are more lolita mothers around, it's unexpectedly good to be called master by a lolita maid with a disgusted expression.
...Is it because of the combination of the attributes of the female little ghost, and the attack speed bonus?
"Very good," Roland nodded with satisfaction while thinking wildly.
"That's about it. If we restrain the volume, combined with the previous performance, even if someone really feels something is wrong, they will only think that we are playing some special game instead of doubting the authenticity of this relationship."
"In a sense, isn't this worse than before?"
"No way," he shrugged, "Who told you to spend too much time to be prepared, there is no time to practice."
Suddenly, Roland turned his head calmly and looked at the other side of the platform.
The pure white fog that was so thick that you couldn't see your hand in front of you had dissipated a lot at some point. Although it still had a strong shielding effect, it had revealed the rusty tracks and a few figures standing in the distance, which were also wrapped in fog.
Watching those figures, Arteluqi also restrained herself a lot.
She was not surprised that there were other people hiding in the fog. This abandoned platform originally served as a starting point. Given the reputation of that place, it would be strange if there were no other guests.
Moreover, for new guests like her and Roland, the performance of these regulars could also serve as a reminder.
"Since the hidden mice have all come out, does that mean that we are about to arrive?"
"Yes, the time is just right."
Roland sighed as he looked into the depths of the fog along the rails.
"So punctual, should we say it is worthy of being the Magic Eye Collection Train?"
Hearing this name, Arteluqi's face also flashed a subtle expectation.
This is not because she was excited to be able to personally participate in this urban legend, but for her now, the meaning of this place is far more than that.
Otherwise, she would not be willing to use the expedient of calling Roland the master for the sake of disguise.
Arteluqi narrowed her eyes slightly, and a touch of golden light surged in her pupils.
The next moment, the figures in the distance of the girl's vision underwent a change that only she could see.
——The pure white mist could not conceal the dark and misty black lines floating peacefully on the surface of the figures. (End of this chapter)
