The sensations of her body merged completely with her master’s, and for a moment, the princess even experienced the overwhelming, invincible feeling of being a witch.
“Mas…ter…” Her body had already been fully absorbed, leaving only her head outside, making it look as if it was growing out of Chen Xing’s chest.
The expression left on her face was filled with bliss.
Her eyes lost their light, sinking into endless confusion.
“There, there~” Chen Xing gently hugged the head, the scene looking incredibly disturbing.
Then she slowly pushed the head into her own chest, which meant the princess had been completely devoured.
Next, her soul would be branded with a mark that belonged to the witch, one that could never be erased.
“Mmm…” Chen Xing closed her eyes, starting to savor the taste of the soul.
The princess hadn’t felt fear as she was swallowed, so her soul didn’t carry the flavor of fear, but it did have other negative emotions.
Resentment, hatred, unwillingness… these feelings were especially strong.
With her eyes closed, she saw scenes from the princess’s memories.
“Hahaha, sis, wait for me~” Two adorable little girls in princess dresses ran and giggled across the ice, looking so happy… “Ah!” The younger sister fell on her butt… “Are you okay, little sis? Let me see if you’re hurt?” The older sister hurried over to check on her… “Waaah…” “Don’t cry, don’t cry~ There, there~” The little sister cried, and the older sister comforted her gently… Their childhood was always like this, warm and full of happiness… As the scenes flickered, the girls grew up, and on their eighteenth birthday, the sisters stood on the dueling stage.
They both used all their strength, summoning powerful magic, as if they were trying to kill each other.
Both were badly injured in the end, and the older sister won the duel…
On the stage, the weakened younger sister could only watch as her sister was taken away.
She cried out helplessly, but nothing could stop it…
At the last moment, as the older sister was led into the queen mother’s palace, she turned her head and gave her little sister a gentle smile…
The next time she saw her sister, that loving warmth was gone.
Standing before her, the younger sister felt like she was facing an ice sculpture…
“Sis…ter?” The younger sister’s eyes filled with tears, her voice choked…
“Mm.”
A cold reply.
The older sister would never again reach out to touch her little sister’s face when she called her…
The older sister became the country’s heir, and all her emotions were sealed by magic, turning her into a cold machine.
She was like the core of the nation’s machine, running day and night without rest or complaint…
The younger sister could only see her if it was for state business.
If she tried to meet for personal reasons, she’d be refused.
From that day on, seeing her sister like this, the younger sister’s heart began to fill with hatred.
“Sigh…” Chen Xing opened her eyes and let out a helpless sigh.
Seeing the princess’s memories, she actually felt a bit guilty? Because of her own evil corruption, she’d changed the person the princess cared about most.
It almost felt like she’d ntr’d the queen or something? But the queen probably didn’t count as a victim, right? After all, she couldn’t feel anything for her sister now.
In a way, the queen was basically a robot, right? You can’t really say you ntr’d a robot.
“Don’t worry, Belle, I’ll save your sister.
I’ll make sure you two can live happily together forever.”
Belle, that was the princess’s name.
Chen Xing felt a bit guilty toward her, so to make it up to her, Chen Xing decided to restore the queen’s emotions and let the sisters be together forever.
That way, both girls could be happy, and Chen Xing could get her treasure too.
It was a win-win-win~
“You just stay inside my body for now~” Chen Xing patted her own body as she spoke.
The princess’s appearance was too eye-catching, so she couldn’t bring her along, and there was no need to have her lurking in the shadows.
It was best to just let her stay inside for now.
The princess and Little Dragon Girl were both servants of darkness, but there was actually a big difference between them.
Even though they both stayed inside Chen Xing’s body, as guardians, Little Dragon Girl and the others were swallowed but their bodies weren’t dissolved—they existed independently, their minds clear, able to feel themselves wrapped in darkness.
Chen Xing could also sense them inside her, like a pregnant mother.
If Little Dragon Girl moved around inside, Chen Xing would feel it like a baby kicking.
But the princess was different.
Her human body had already dissolved, and her new body was made from Chen Xing’s dark matter.
Once she returned to Chen Xing’s body, her dark-matter body melted and became part of Chen Xing again.
What remained of the princess inside Chen Xing was only her corrupted soul.
Souls aren’t physical, so Chen Xing couldn’t feel her presence by touch.
The princess’s soul was now in a half-dream, half-awake state, her consciousness drifting, wrapped in happiness, unable to think… If Chen Xing didn’t actively release her, the princess would never be able to come out.
“Swallowing someone at the princess’s level directly is already the limit.
If it’s someone even stronger, I have no idea how I’d make them submit.”
By devouring the princess, Chen Xing could feel the upper limit of direct swallowing—anyone below level fifty.
Above that, they could resist the dark matter’s dissolution with their own power.
It had been so easy to deal with Freya before only because she’d lost her magic and had been corroded by darkness for hundreds of years.
If it had been her at her peak, any darkness that touched her would have been dispelled instantly.
According to the princess’s memories, her sister had always been stronger, and after becoming queen, she trained even harder, advancing even faster.
She was probably already above level fifty now, so direct devouring with darkness wouldn’t work.
She’d have to find a way to break her will and make her give up resisting, but the queen had no emotions.
Her will was like iron, and without feelings, she had no weaknesses.
How could she break her?
“It’s not going to work with brute force.
Looks like I’ll have to do some proper training~” Chen Xing stretched lazily.
After eating the princess, she’d become the person most familiar with the queen, but the more she knew, the harder the queen seemed to handle.
But that only made Chen Xing more competitive.
She didn’t plan to use force to make her submit—witches hated violence.
What she liked was making everything submit to the will of darkness.
