Hero? Are You Worthy?

In the briefest of times…

Gratitude.

She began to fall.

Until she had completely fallen!

Angelica perfectly embodied what it meant to fall deeper and deeper.

"If anyone hurts you again… I will definitely appear before you!"

Qin Chu's voice still echoed in Angelica's ears.

She knew that her master had become the only one in her life; from now on, no one and nothing could replace the master's place in her heart.

The God Sect, the Holy Daughter?

All of that did not matter anymore.

She would live for her master.

Angelica cried out loud as if venting, her tears soaking Qin Chu's chest.

Outside the door, Nicholas and a group of guards looked at each other in confusion.

A group of men, all filled with admiration.

Only one female guard had her cheeks tinged with red as she spat softly, a bunch of shameless men.

In the room, Qin Chu simply held Angelica gently, patting her little head with tender movements, yet the corner of his mouth curled into a cold, indifferent arc.

He believed that what Angelica was saying and thinking right now was absolutely true.

But what about when she calmed down?

What would happen when greater interests were laid before her?

His fingers ran through Angelica's emerald hair, and unknowingly, she fell asleep.

She was indeed very tired and needed rest, not just physically, but also her soul.

Qin Chu placed Angelica's body on the bed, covered her with a blanket, and sat at the bedside with a few sheets of paper in hand.

One of the papers listed a detailed roster, which was the information about all the demons hidden within the Imperial City that Candice knew of.

The other papers recorded a total of thirty-six low-level magic spells and seven intermediate magic spells.

The current Qin Chu, though he possessed decent Magic Power, lacked corresponding magic.

Even if it's just low-level magic, Qin Chu needs to quickly strengthen his capabilities.

Low-level magic typically doesn't have great destructive power, but it can still be effective at times.

With Qin Chu's understanding of magic, as long as he knows the spells, he will quickly master these magic spells and record them on his panel.

In his past life, after becoming adept with Magic Power, high-level magic spells didn't even require spells, and he could cast them instantly.

Shaye lay on Qin Chu's legs, bored, twirling a strand of hair with her fingers, then letting it go immediately.

"This little girl, you've bewitched her with a few words, the sin is profound!" Shaye grumbled.

Of course, Shaye was also well aware that the reason Angelica had fallen so easily was because she had suffered too much previously. Suddenly, someone reached out a hand to save her, naturally, she would harbor special feelings for her savior.

Plus, with Qin Chu's sweet talk and encouragement, it was natural she would fall.

"Don't make it sound like I'm some sort of playboy who deceives girls with sweet talk," Qin Chu, who was recording spells, retorted with an annoyed roll of his eyes when he heard this.

"I didn't mean that..."

"This girl has reached her limit. In a little while, her body and her will might fall into destruction; she'd either die or be tainted by filth and become a demon."

"Although your methods are indeed not glorious, it's true that this poor girl was saved because of them."

"Rather, this can be considered a fair exchange of benefits, a win-win situation."

Shaye's perspective was quite sharp.

In the first week, Angelica could no longer endure Rose Vesper's relentless torment and completely disintegrated, falling into an irrational demon.

"Now this girl has only you on her mind, and her strength isn't bad either; she can serve as a bodyguard, but her power is locked."

"No problem, I'll go to Augustus, he should not refuse to lift the seal," Qin Chu thought for a moment and said, "But, her loyalty, still needs to be tested."

"Is that necessary?" Shaye somewhat failed to understand; in her view, at this moment, the girl's heart was set on Qin Chu alone, and she would not refuse whatever Qin Chu asked of her. She thought there should be no issue with her loyalty.

"Yes, indeed, another test is needed. Only when I see that Angelica would not betray me even if it means losing her life, will I fully trust her," Qin Chu insisted stubbornly.

Indeed, that was the kind of person Qin Chu was now.

Suspicious, he would not easily trust anyone.

It could be said that the situation had taken a completely different turn from the first week.

"So how do you plan to test it?"

"I have my own arrangements."

The room gradually fell silent.

Qin Chu's experience from the first week was proving effective. With his understanding of magic, he could easily perform Super Order Magic, even create it. Learning these low-level spells was, therefore, incredibly easy.

By noon the next day, thirty-six low-level spells and seven intermediate spells had been mastered. At this time, Qin Chu had finally gained a certain combat strength, other than that of the Devourer.

Giving the list of demons hiding within the Imperial City another careful look, Qin Chu stretched languidly, his body stiff and crackling with sound.

Pushing open the door, he saw a new group of guards outside, as people weren't machines and needed rest too.

The chief guard this time was a woman named Lena Maritiss.

She was very tall, at least 1.8 meters, and slightly taller than Qin Chu. Her physique was the type that was evenly proportioned, with rounded muscle lines built from years of training.

Of course, to the average noble lady, such a build was definitely considered robust.

Her wheat-colored skin glowed with health.

The warrior's armor barely covered her shoulders, chest, buttocks, thighs, and feet. The rest of her body was exposed.

Qin Chu couldn't understand why, as a warrior, she didn't wear full body armor but instead this seductive kind of armor, which might be due to the inconvenience full body armor could cause to flexibility?

Who knows.

"Respected Mr. Brave, what are your plans for today?" Lena Maritiss's voice was also hearty and carried a wild breath.

She was one of the guards who protected the banquet last night, and seeing the Brave still wearing the same clothes as yesterday, she frowned and said, "Where is Miss Angelica? She is your maid and should always be by your side to serve. Why isn't she here?"

"Oh, Angelica? She was too tired and needed to rest. She is still asleep now. Let's not wake her," Qin Chu said casually, waving his hand.

The nearby guards looked a bit strange upon hearing this.

They had heard during the shift change that Mr. Brave had called his maid Angelica to his room and then certain things had happened.

But this Angelica, as a maid, was truly unqualified.

A maid should appear by her master's side to serve at any time, no matter what she faces. That's what a qualified maid is.

Speaking of which, Mr. Brave was far too indulgent with the maid, even allowing her to sleep in his bed, sharing it with her, and even after he woke up, he hadn't woken the maid to help him dress or prepare food.

Truly deserving of the title maid enthusiast. In all of Sky Dome Continent, there is none other so indulgent towards a maid.

The sounds from outside the room slowly woke Angelica up.

Inside the door, Angelica opened her eyes in confusion to an unfamiliar ceiling, rubbed her eyes for several seconds before realizing what had happened, and her pretty face turned red all at once.

Recalling what had happened yesterday, her cheeks were burning hot, yet her heart felt warm.

This must be the taste of happiness, feeling like she was in a dream.

She had really met a very good person.

The weariness in both body and spirit had dissipated somewhat, even the marks of bruises had faded a little, and after a whole night's rest, Angelica had enjoyed a rare relaxation.

Then, Angelica realized she was no longer in bed, because snuggling in his arms felt too peaceful and she overslept, neglecting her maid duties. She knocked her little fist against her head, quickly got out of bed, tidied up her clothes in haste, grabbed the invitations on the table, and rushed out the room.

"I'm sorry, I overslept..." Angelica said with an ashamed face, and the reproachful gaze of Maritiss beside her made it even harder for Angelica to bear, like sitting on pins and needles.

Qin Chu, however, did not mind at all, and patted Angelica on the head, "It doesn't matter, you were tired. Why didn't you sleep a little longer? By the way, what's that in your arms?"

He asked knowingly.

"These are banquet invitations from some nobles last night, a total of one hundred and twelve," she said.

"Thirty-six of them are for tea parties held by noble ladies, twenty-seven are invitation cards from noblewomen, hoping for a private meeting with you..."

Qin Chu's forehead was lined, there were actually twenty-seven noblewomen? And aiming for a private meeting? It seemed they were intent on cuckolding their husbands.

He already knew the world was liberal, but he was still shocked.

"My lord, which banquet do you plan to attend?" Angelica quickly returned to her maid duties, "Also, you haven't had breakfast... ah, lunch yet..."

Suddenly, she seemed to become busy.

Qin Chu laughed, "Don't rush, take it slowly. Go and prepare some food for me. And make some for these knights who have been protecting me too; you might not have eaten yet, right?"

"As for the invitations, just leave them at home, I won't be going to any of them," he continued.

"Now that Sky Dome Continent is under attack by demons, people are in distress, every second lives are taken by demons. How could I live so leisurely in such times?"

Qin Chu spoke with righteousness and passion!

"I must immediately join the battle against the demons and bring peace to the Sky Dome Continent as soon as possible!"
