A long, long time ago, the Deville family produced a super strong individual, not inferior to the first head of the family, named Ratan Deville.
He roamed the world, brave and skilled in battle, but legend has it that after a fight with the Corrupt Princess under the God of Mercy and Life, his body and soul were eroded, driving him to madness, a fate worse than death.
To free the hero, other members of the Deville family gathered heroes from all over and engaged in an epic battle with him, ultimately ending his life, allowing him to leave this world as a warrior.
The “Battle Festival” was established to commemorate that event, giving young talents who have just gained new powers from Niflheim a chance to showcase their skills, while also comforting the spirit of the general in heaven.
However, just as this exciting festival was about to begin, mysterious events occurred in Valhalla City.
Some strange developing papers and recording crystals (equivalent to Earth’s photos and videos) were spread all over Valhalla City overnight, in door cracks, on benches, in window gaps… just like the flyers stuffed by scam groups.
And the content… was all about Torina.
Some photos showed her with a proud smile, stepping on a pitiful-looking white-haired girl whose face was pixelated; some photos showed her sitting with her legs crossed on the back of a similarly pixelated elf girl, looking at her with disdain; some photos were close-ups of high heels… As for the videos, they were even more intense.
“Hey, hey, hey! A pig should be aware of being a pig, who allowed you to stand like a human?” — Torina laughed loudly, stepping on the elf girl, making her lie on the ground.
“What? Thirsty and want to drink water? Then drink it~ Catch it with your mouth~” — Torina extended her leg in black stockings, pouring tea on it, letting it flow down her foot.
“Oh my, this chair is really comfortable, don’t move~ Oh ho ho ho ho!” — Torina sat with her legs crossed on the white-haired girl’s face, looking down at her with disdain.
“Who allowed you to wipe my sweat with a towel? Use your mouth like a dog!”
“Who allowed you to speak? Believe it or not, I’ll stuff your mouth with my foot!”
“Trash ❤️ Trash ❤️ Trash ❤️ A bunch of trash not even as good as dogs ❤️❤️”
In short, the content fully showcased Torina’s terrible and sadistic behavior, which was truly awful.

The cause was last night—
“Thank you for accompanying me in the shoot! Thank you!” After the staged photoshoot, Torina bowed to the two people in gratitude.
“Just helping out a bit, rather interesting actually.”
Patty got up from the ground, looking in a good mood.
“But why take these photos?” Milora asked as she helped Torina wipe the tea off her foot.
“Heh heh, I have my own clever plan~”
————
Back to the present.
Torina was smug.
(Haha, I’m so clever! Since my image is already beyond saving, I might as well go all out, deliberately taking and spreading these things, letting them know what a terrible woman I am! So they will avoid me like the plague!)
After seeing these, even if those fiancé candidates are pressured by their families, they will surely back off, right? Once they have reservations about winning, they definitely can’t fight with all their might, and some might even withdraw on the spot~
Joy! Victory!
As Torina walked barefoot on the street (she never wore shoes again after receiving the socks), everyone stared at her with strange eyes, ha, this must be a look of awe, right?
She brought Milora and Patty to the audience seats set up outside the city.
As soon as she appeared, the atmosphere changed.
Those contestants.
Those prodigies.
Those fiancé candidates.
Regardless of their background, age, or lineage, they all stared at her with extremely passionate eyes.
(Hmm? This gaze doesn’t seem like fear or disgust? Why does it feel like they’re more motivated… Is it an illusion?)
Torina felt a bit uneasy and took a few steps forward, heading towards the VIP seats where Morai was.
As she stepped onto the stairs, stepping directly on the ground with her socked feet—
Boom!!
The third young master of the Papating family, Keloron, couldn’t hold back any longer and slammed the table, standing up!
“Miss Torina! Rest assured! I will win your heart!!!”
Boom!!
The eldest young master of the Corleone family, Santino, couldn’t hold back either, slamming the table and standing up!
“Miss Torina! There is no second sun in the sky, you are the only sun in my heart!!!”
Boom!!
The eldest young master of the Bessemer Chamber of Commerce, Todd, couldn’t hold back either, slamming the table and standing up!
“Miss Torina! Your character is more noble than a dragonborn!!”
The fiancé candidates stood up one after another, like reporting for military training.
“Miss Torina! I will definitely win!!”
“I will not disappoint you!”
“I want to become a man worthy of you!”
“Please watch my performance!!”
Huh? Why are they… not backing off, but instead more motivated?
“Please spare those girls and come to me!!!”
“Don’t step on the stairs! Step on me!!!!”
“Step anywhere! Trample me hard!!”
“Punish this perverted, filthy pig hard!”
“Please moisten my throat with your foot sweat!!”
“I’m willing to clean your feet with my tongue every day!”
“Please give me a chance! I’m super professional!!”
“Miss Torina ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!”
Torina was dumbfounded.jpg
“No way!!!!”
Milora stood in front of Torina like a guard dog, angrily scolding the contestants who were in a frenzy:
“It’s not your turn! Torina already has me by her side!!!!”
“““““““Don’t think you can monopolize such a good thing ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!””””””
“Then get past me first!!!!”
Torina was dumbfounded again.jpg
Eh? Eh eh eh? Normally, anyone who saw those photos and videos would avoid her, right? How could there be people in the world who like being scolded, stepped on, treated like a dog, or sat on by her?
“I disagree too!”
At this moment, a handsome guy with golden-red hair, wearing bright leather armor, stepped forward, holding a somewhat familiar spear, glaring at the contestants.
“““““Who are you?””””
“I am Wilt Alphares of the Alphares family! Whether it’s you or this Milora Sistema, no one can get close to her! The only one who can win is me!!!”
“““““Who the hell are you!!!””””
Torina was dumbfounded for the third time.jpg
Why did it turn out like this?
Watching from the side, Morai couldn’t help but hold his forehead.
(This foolish sister, trying to pull a trick but it completely backfired, did she underestimate her own looks and body too much? … But it’s fine, her antics have greatly motivated the contestants.)
Thus, thanks to Torina’s astonishing wisdom, the festival’s atmosphere reached its most fervent peak in decades.
