Chapter 803: 453 Call me Your Highness; the future me will inherit the Abyss [No. 18]
For love, I made a wish to the deities, ah no, it was for love that I made a wish to the Demon and formed a pact with it.
Lance was right, love really does bring misfortune and decreases one’s IQ, no wonder Lance told her to wait until she was grown before she could fall in love.
As a human, she had come of age.
But as an Amethyst Young Dragon, she was still just a dragon cub.
Wanting to fall in love?
Wait another two thousand years then.
But then the problem is, who would fall in love with an Undead Bone Dragon two thousand years later?
Wait a minute, wait a minute…..
Before appearing in the Holy Light Domain, she advanced into a Pureblood Amethyst Young Dragon, and after becoming a Pureblood Giant Dragon, her lifespan would greatly increase; if not ten thousand years, then living seven to eight thousand years would be no problem.
Another problem, now that she has turned back into a human, has she permanently lost the [Longevity] benefit?
Seven to eight thousand years compared to two to three hundred years…..
The Young Dragon Lucia was immediately heartbroken, originally she could have lived for seven to eight thousand years, and now, she could only live for two to three hundred years!!!
(o(╥﹏╥)o
Damn it, such a great loss, if I can’t become the Emperor of the Phalan Empire, even in death, I will return to the Phalan Empire as a Dead Spirit and haunt my disgusting older sister Asina every night, making her return the throne to me.
Thinking this way, the young dragon instantly felt that Conner signing a pact with the Demon wasn’t such a big deal after all.
No matter how great his loss, it definitely couldn’t match hers.
To lose seven thousand years of life all at once – could Conner possibly live that long?
“Little aunt, what are you two chatting about?”
“Lotti, if I could have met you earlier, I would have been willing to give you a hundred years of my lifespan. But now it’s gone….. all gone.”
???
o((⊙﹏⊙))o
Lotti was confused, what did she mean by giving her a hundred years of lifespan for no reason?
No, wait, lifespan can be given away?
Also not right, she asked her discount little aunt what she was chatting about with Hannah and Conner, and she started talking about giving her lifespan…..
“Sorry, the heartache…. has made me incoherent. Lotti, could you arrange a private room for us? I want to have a proper chat with the two of them.”
“Ah? Me…..”
“No need for that, Little Regent King Your Highness, if you can really see the secret hidden within me, then you should know the price one must pay to sign a pact with the [filth] you mentioned, not to mention… it was I who actively sought out the [filth].
If you have anything to say, just say it here. The last thing I can do for the Empire is to use my own misfortunes to tell them about the consequences of signing a pact with the filth.”
Young Conner looked at Hannah, who was sitting in a wheelchair, with a doting gaze. While speaking, his right hand left the handle of the wheelchair, wanting to pet Hannah’s head but withdrew silently just before touching her.
He hadn’t confessed his feelings to Hannah yet; such an intimate gesture as petting her head was not something he was entitled to do.
The Young Dragon’s eyes showed surprise; Conner’s intention was… to publicly reveal his pact with the Demon?
Not afraid of being scorned?
Others who have made pacts with Demons keep it hush-hush, fearing exposure.
He, on the other hand, is preparing to…..
???
No, that’s not it!
His demeanor and tone seem more like a farewell…
Could it be that the pact he signed with the Demon… is about to expire?
“Filth? Evil Spirit?” Lotti looked at Conner with a strange gaze, “This is the Light Imperial City, where no powerful Evil Spirits can survive.”
“I apologize Your Highness, it’s not an Evil Spirit….. it’s a Demon….”
???
!!!
What the hell?!
Demon!!!
Conner signed a pact with a Demon?
Incredible!
Astounded!
However, when Lotti saw Hannah sitting in the wheelchair, she instantly understood why Conner would sign a pact with a legendary Demon.
It was to make Hannah able to stand.
Only such a condition would make Conner resolutely sign a pact with the Abyssal Demon.
Conner’s voice was not loud, but his words still reached some noble young men and women nearby.
Those who were previously enjoying their lively conversations now looked at Conner with complicated gazes after hearing the word Demon from him.
Who Conner was, they all had an idea, and they even regularly interacted with him.
He was talented, had great potential, and was one of the talents ardently fostered by the military academy. As a commoner, within just ten years, he entered the Light Imperial City and even received commendation from His Majesty.
As such a person, he was just lacking an opportunity, a chance to go to war.
Unexpectedly, he colluded with a Demon to sign a pact.
For Hannah.
That he fancied Hannah was obvious to them all.
For Hannah’s sake… he was willing to sacrifice his own future…..
Several handsome and tall young men came to stand behind Lotti. Their fathers were generals who fought for the Holy Light Empire and His Majesty.
Facing unknown dangers, they had to step forward as soldiers to protect Princess Lotti.
“Conner, how dare you sign a pact with a Demon?! This act of yours…. is no different from treason!”
One of the young men questioned Conner. Even if it was for Hannah, was it necessary to make a pact with a Demon?
He could have simply taken Hannah out of the Empire to search for a Potion Master, Alchemist, or a Light Priest close to the deity who could cure Hannah’s legs.
“Sorry, I won’t let my actions hurt anyone here. The Demon I made a pact with said it would only take away my soul, my lifespan.
But just in case, I think… when I fall, I hope you could burn my body to ashes. I fear that my body could be stolen.”
What do you think?
