Stop Hypnotizing Me, Antagonist Princess!

"If I don't let you die, then no matter what, you can't die."

Upon hearing this, Lynn took a deep breath.

He was about to say something more, but he heard a noisy commotion coming from the entrance of the underground relics.

"Your Highness! Are you all right?!"

The concerned voices of his subordinates reached him.

Aphia, in her kitten form, led the charge and pounced over, transforming into her human form mid-air like a head-butt cannonball and barreled into Lynn's embrace.

"You bad guy; you're okay too!" After bumping Lynn and forcing him to retreat a few steps, her eyes sparkled with amazement and admiration, "Everyone is okay, that's really great!"

"What in the world happened just now with that commotion?!"

Yiwei Sister took a deep breath to suppress a flash of malaise in her eyes, regaining her composure.

"The Imperial Princess is fine," she responded indifferently, "How are the casualties?"

Morris, while wiping away tears, emerged from the shadows: "Aside from over half of the Duke's elite troops being casualties, the rest are mostly unharmed."

Duke Tierus followed closely behind into the underground relics.

His face was very grim, and he didn't speak, as if he was angry about everything that Saint Laurent VI had caused that day.

However, on making eye contact with Lynn, the Duke's expression softened just slightly, and they exchanged a nod without words.

For a moment, the entire underground relic was filled with a relaxed atmosphere as people reveled in the joy of surviving the ordeal.

"Dude, you're too badass," Glaya walked over and slung an arm around Lynn's shoulder, his face expressing utter shock, "Could you share with me what exactly did you do?"

"When those two terrifying beings were battling in the sky, I vaguely saw that one of the monsters looked a bit like you, Rhein even said I was mistaken."

"That was indeed me," Noticing the gazes from all around, Lynn didn't conceal the truth, "And the other being is now residing in my body."

As he spoke, Lynn suddenly raised his hand, conjuring a blob of black mire in his palm.

"?!"

Such a terrifying being, with a real strength probably reaching that of a Sixth Rank Demigod, was actually staying in his body?

But isn't this guy just a First Rank?

In an instant, as if realizing something, everyone fell silent, and the previous joy swiftly evaporated.

Aphia's eyes began to show a flicker of concern.

Looking at the suddenly silent crowd, Lynn smiled faintly: "Seeing that everyone is unharmed, I feel relieved."

"Additionally, I have a few words to say to you all."

As he spoke, he suddenly looked down at Aphia in his arms: "Although the Princess has not directly absorbed the core attribute of the Level 0 Sealing Object, she has still been somewhat contaminated."

"Perhaps in the coming days, she will often feel completely weak, even showing temporary symptoms of paralysis, so you'd better prepare a wheelchair in advance, and it's best to accompany her in it on a daily basis."

The current Yiwei Sister could stand only due to some obsessions in her heart, not fainting was already a feat.

Because Lynn and the Creation Demon were now highly integrated, his senses had become acutely sharp.

He naturally did not miss the condition of her body.

At this, Yiwei Sister's expression suddenly turned somber.

She seemed to sense what Lynn was about to do and staggered towards him: "Shut your mouth..."

Lynn suddenly leaped up, hovering in mid-air.

On seeing this, she clenched her silver teeth, anger flashing across her fair, pretty face.

It was as if she was saying, 'So you've got some nerve now, daring to disobey your master?'

However, Lynn did not pause but continued: "Mr. Duke, you are a true noble."

"During the upcoming King's election, please look after the Princess, and I hope you will not fail to honor your previous promise."

At this point, even Duke Tierus sensed something was amiss.

"Hey, you kid..."

"Rhein," Lynn's gaze then rested on the arrogant blond man, "Although I greatly dislike you, the Augusta Family is one of the few forces that the Princess can rely on."

"I hope you do not waver, and since you've chosen loyalty, stick to it through thick and thin."

Rhein, the one called out, stiffened for a moment. Enjoy new stories from empire

But feeling the eyes on him, he still snorted coldly and then nodded his head.

"Glaya, after I leave, remember in everyday matters to think about what I would do if I were there; at times, unconventional methods may more easily break the situation open."

"And Morris..."

Lynn was about to say more.

But the Creation Demon was far more potent than he had anticipated.

Even with the forewarning of the previous two steps, with Its status, It was not possible to let a mere First Rank ant manipulate at will.

"Ptui!"

With the sound of blood splattering, Lynn's body was pierced through by spikes formed of black mire.

A malevolent face emerged from his chest, its expression ominous as it surveyed everything around it.

Everyone immediately let out a startled cry.

Yet, Lynn still controlled his teetering body, levitating midair.

"You... come back to me, Imperial Princess!"

Ivyst's tone was as cold as ever, yet it now carried an undetectable disturbance and tremble.

She instinctively raised her hand as if to clutch the corner of Lynn's clothes.

But no matter what, her body eventually gave in and she collapsed, held in Aphia's arms.

"Hey hey, the stuff you just said, were you planning to leave after that?" Glaya realized what Lynn was thinking, her brows furrowing tightly, "Enough's enough!"

"This is something the experts from the Imperial Capital and the Transcendent are good at, don't try to solve it all by yourself, you're not some savior, you're just a First Rank."

"Besides..."

"No, there are things, that only I can do right now."

Lynn cut off Glaya's words.

He looked down from above at everyone and Ivyst, who was being held by Aphia.

Looking into those red eyes, Lynn suddenly cracked a faint smile, "One last thing I want to say at the end."

"Your Highness, I believe you will surely become a great Emperor in the future."

With that, he leaped to the highest point.

"In a moment, I will gain brief control over the Creation Demon's power," Lynn raised his voice, "At that time, I will use my powers to transport all of you out of the Soron Mountain Range."

"You, what on earth are you planning?!"

An urgent shout came from below.

"I am... going to put an end to all of this."

As he spoke, he slowly lifted his right hand.

Accompanied by a space fluctuation, everyone's figures involuntarily started to fade.

Sensing his intent, Ivyst clenched her teeth hard.

Even though her body was briefly paralyzed, she still stretched out her hand towards his direction subconsciously.

In the moment their eyes met, Lynn actually felt from those bright red eyes a barely perceptible plea for mercy.

Although it was faint, he caught it distinctly.

This was the first time Lynn had sensed such a tender emotion from Ivyst.

Even when she threatened with suicide, the woman had never backtracked.

"...Goodbye then, Your Highness, and everyone."

Lynn ignored that fleeting softness in his heart.

Then, he clenched his fist tightly.

"You... bastard!!!"

Watching the action of his hand, Ivyst screamed with all her might.

However, the next second, the entire underground relic fell silent, and everyone vanished on the spot, as if everything before had never happened.

Seeing this, Lynn slightly relaxed.

"Now, it's time to settle the score between us two."

Feeling the struggle and transformation within him, he spoke indifferently.

"Save your nonsense for your next life... you filthy brat, your time is up!!!"

At this very moment, the Creation Demon had finally recovered from the pain energy brought by the Thorny Crown.

It regained control over Lynn's mind and will, about to completely take over his body.

And as a bottom-of-the-ladder First Rank Transcendent... Lynn couldn't possibly have any chance of resisting!

"Oh, is that so?" Even facing such a situation, Lynn showed no panic, "But I think I can still struggle a bit."

With that.

Under the gaze of the Creation Demon, he slowly pulled something out of his pocket.

It was a pair of black pantyhose.
