Abyssal Chronicles

Chapter 732 - 733: A Roller Coaster of Emotions

Previously, because all his attention was focused on the treasure box in hand, and the blue-haired maid had been lowering her head out of fear, Heidely had not noticed her appearance.

But now,

After forcefully pulling up the maid’s hair and seeing her face clearly, the sneer on Heidely’s face suddenly froze in place, and his bloodthirsty and ferocious face showed surprise for a moment.

Involuntarily, Heidely released Asar’s hair and couldn’t help but take two steps back,

"You, you... how are you still alive?"

"?!"

"Heh?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the vice leader waiting for instructions, along with Asar and everyone else, showed astonished expressions. Especially Asar, whose mind was completely muddled, looked at Heidely without understanding.

And just as she lifted her head, Heidely directly took action, grabbed Asar’s chin, and dragged her up from the ground to face him.

Tilting his head slightly, Heidely closely examined Asar’s face, which had turned pale out of fear,

Heidely also made a number of unsettling noises while inspecting:

"Indeed, similar, very similar... almost identical..."

But Heidely then made a strange face as he talked, looking thoughtfully at the girl’s attire and the large mountains on her chest. Heidely stopped sighing at this point, his eyes wide with perplexity and his eyebrows tightly knit.

’This chest, doesn’t seem fake?’

’This scent’

’This figure’

’Doesn’t seem right either?’

"This is a boy... not a girl, right?"

Moreover,

Under those circumstances at that time, how could that child, a kid less than level 3, possibly survive? Even if he survived, he shouldn’t be this young...

’If it’s not him?’

’Why do they look so similar? An illegitimate daughter?’

’Or is it, there are such coincidences in the world?’

The more he thought about it, the more solemn Heidely’s expression became.

"Little girl, don’t you recognize me?"

Looking into Asar’s eyes, Heidely asked very seriously, word by word:

However,

The only response he got was Asar’s confused face. Although Asar did wonder if the other party might recognize her, after all, she didn’t have the memories from before her resurrection by the goddess. Perhaps this level 8 powerhouse recognized her? But to Asar, he was undoubtedly a stranger.

"No, I don’t know..."

Faced with that terribly oppressive mischief, Asar could only nod in truth.

"Don’t recognize me, huh."

Heidely murmured to himself.

’Looking at it this way, this girl doesn’t seem to be lying. Maybe it’s me overthinking?’

’No, no, I still need to confirm it...’

’Right, why not use that old guy’s thing to test it out?’

With this thought, Heidely revealed a meaningful smile. Then, under Asar’s puzzled gaze, a rosy glow slowly rippled from Heidely’s space ring.

The next moment,

A token appeared in Heidely’s hand without any warning.

Before Asar could react to what was happening, her delicate and frail hand was forcefully pulled by Heidely and placed on the token.

Then,

Like many scenes that please the audience, the red gem on the token slowly flickered with a faint red light.

In an instant, Heidely’s eyes suddenly narrowed, and he stood frozen on the spot as if struck by lightning, dumbfounded.

After a long silence, Heidely’s mouth suddenly curved up, and he burst into uncontrollable laughter under the astonished and puzzled gazes of the nearby Snake Squad members.

"Ha ha! Hahaha!! Hahahahaha!! Is this a mistake, is this a mistake?! To think, to think he actually didn’t die?!! It seems, testing a bit more, really wasn’t a bad idea…"

After a round of eerie laughter,

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly changed from the previous silence and oppression. Heidely abruptly raised his hand, pressing down firmly on Asar’s shoulders. While taking another look at Asar, he spoke in a bizarre tone:

"Tsk tsk tsk, you really have a big life~ surviving like this? But, it seems you’ve lost your memory, not even remembering me, your old servant?

"Also, like this? You totally look like a girl now? My goodness, has the surgical technology on the continent improved this much?"

"Especially these in front, these are really breasts, right?"

"Prince, where did you find such an amazing doctor?"

"I’ve never heard that the continent has technology or magic that can change one’s gender, hmm? Could it be… Prince, you were a girl all along?"

...

As he spoke, getting to the exciting part, Heidely even started to play with Asar’s face and breasts, making her even more confused.

But one thing was for sure, the person in front of her really knew her?

Seemingly, even calling her a prince?

’Could it be?!’

At this moment, Asar couldn’t help feeling a surge of joy.

’Could it be that after being pitiful for so long, my luck had finally turned?’

’Just as I thought’

’Someone like Senior Xue Tianao is a prince of the Snowy Night Empire, and Miss Mengxi is a Saintess of the church. Chosen ones all have their own backgrounds and eventually their own powerful forces! Being a Son of Destiny myself, it shouldn’t be that I’m an unwanted orphan!’

Imagining himself as the prince of Sky City, living a wonderful daily life of being waited on hand and foot, Asar’s heart’s unease was instantly dispelled, and feelings of joy and anticipation rapidly spread through her heart.

In Asar’s faintly red eyes, a light flickered.

That,

Was the light of longing and anticipation for a beautiful life!

And just as Asar was indulging in her fantasies, the vice leader of the Snake Squad, who had been stunned for a long time, walked up excitedly, looking at Asar with a thrilled face. If not for his body stiffening from extreme excitement, the vice leader might have knelt directly in front of Asar.

"So, so great! His Highness, not dead! Not dead! Our heir is, is here......??!!"

However,

Before the vice leader could finish his sentence, a ball of energy compressed from black energy suddenly struck him in the abdomen.

*Pfft!*

Just like that, carrying extreme excitement, the surviving vice leader of the Snake Squad was casually killed by Heidely.

Blood splattered, directly staining the surrounding soil red.

And the blood and fragments of organs that splashed over also hit Asar’s face.

She raised her hand and gently wiped it away.

Looking down at the crimson in her palm, feeling the sudden strong scent of blood, Asar’s consciousness was abruptly pulled back from her fantasies to reality.

"Eh? This, why?"

Asar instantly had a horrible feeling and shook as she lifted her head to see at Heidely.

At this moment, Heidely, with a look of disgust, waved his hand, flicking off the blood on his hand...

While shaking his hand, Heidely looked helplessly towards the fallen corpse.

"Sorry, since you’ve seen this, I can only kill you now."

With these words, Heidely’s gaze once again locked onto Asar. The previous amiability was gone, replaced by bone-chilling coldness and overwhelming intent to kill. Asar, caught under such a gaze, trembled all over, her joyous emotions completely vanished, leaving only astonishment and fear.

Clearly, this nominally loyal servant was not too friendly towards Asar.

"You, you what are you going to do?!"

Watching the black energy rapidly condensing in Heidely’s hand, Asar spoke in panic:

"I, I am not your pri... Hm?!!"

However, before she could finish speaking, Heidely abruptly placed his hand over Asar’s mouth, preventing the next few words from coming out. At the same time, facing Asar’s terrified gaze, Heidely slowly brought his head close to Asar’s ear, whispering softly.

"Sorry, your highness... If you’re alive, it would be troublesome for me and Madam. So, I have to inconvenience you a bit."

"Uuuu!!"

Seeing the opponent’s palm getting closer, Asar frantically shook her head, trying to struggle for help. However, considering Heidely’s strength, it was a fool’s dream for Asar to think of escaping. As for calling out for help? With everyone from the Black Rose family down, who could Asar turn to?

Moreover, she was now deprived even of the right to speak...

As Heidely’s claw drew ever closer, tears of despair began to well up in Asar’s eyes.

That feeling, like riding a roller coaster, made Asar’s heart roar with impotent rage.

’Damn it!’

’Is this some kind of joke?!’

’Did I finally encounter a force related to me?! Just to find out they want to kill me?! What did I do to you my goddess to have such a bad luck, aaaaaah!!’

Heidely’s claw had already reached Asar with an outpouring of powerless inner rage, and the Child of Destiny, dejected, could do nothing but close her eyes.

...

However,

Just then,

A soft and otherworldly voice suddenly floated into the ears of Heidely and Asar:

—"Such a pathetic and foolish person is rare to come by. If you kill him, I will be troubled"—

Instantly,

A series of bloody-red thorns burst from the ground, tightly wrapping around Heidely’s arm...
