Abyssal Chronicles

Chapter 883 - 884: Sister Kalina, Leave It To Me.

4/10

"Kyaa~ Miss Yuan’er is so beautiful!! At tonight’s banquet, she will definitely enchant those guys below the stage!"

Looking at the graceful girl in front of her, Eliza’s eyes sparkled with starlight, and a strong sense of accomplishment arose, making her face reveal an extremely bright smile.

However, facing such a stunning self in the mirror, Yuan’er, the main character of the banquet, showed an embarrassed expression. She looked at the overly gorgeous dress on her body with some frustration.

The next moment, the pink-haired girl spoke in a slightly reproachful tone:

"This will make everyone stare at me later. I don’t like that feeling... It’s very uncomfortable to be stared at."

"This is very normal. Besides, you are the main character today~. No matter how you dress, you will attract a lot of attention. Since that’s the case, why not make yourself look pretty? This way, our Night Wish City will also have face~."

"Sigh. If it weren’t for Mom, I really wouldn’t want to do this type of banquet."

Yuan’er sighed helplessly,

"Grandpa is still in a coma. I have to go and exchange pleasantries with those family heads and clan leaders on his behalf. It’s so annoying..."

"Uh, we can’t do anything about hat,"

Eliza also comforted her quite helplessly:

"After all, with Lord Marquis not here, only you, as the young lady, can go and communicate. No matter what, maintaining internal stability in Night Wish City is very important."

"The main thing is, dressed like this, when interacting with those family heads, their young masters will definitely keep staring at me and even try to strike up a conversation with me. It’s so annoying. Wasn’t it like this at Grandpa’s birthday party last time? It almost drove me crazy. This time, with Grandpa not even here, I’ll definitely go crazy!"

Recalling her previous experience, Yuan’er couldn’t help but feel a chill down her spine.

It wasn’t just because she hated that kind of hypocritical flattery scene.

More importantly, those were all humans!

Interacting with them, wasn’t that equivalent to being surrounded by the aura of a group of humans?!!

Although Yuan’er looked like a beautiful and noble young lady, her essence was still an Abyssal Demon. Moreover, she was the youngest existence among the Demon Kings. Even after six years of learning, coupled with venting in the hunting grounds, Yuan’er still found it very difficult to maintain absolute rationality when facing a group of humans.

The killing desire buried in the depths of her still stimulated Yuan’er’s mind from time to time.

Previously, with Xiumu by her side, he would help her restrain herself, but now?

Just imagining herself being surrounded by a group of humans asking this and that, Yuan’er felt extremely anxious, having the urge to directly slap all those ants to death.

But, if she couldn’t hold back for a moment at the banquet and used Shadow Power to directly kill some people, exposing her identity as a Demon King, wouldn’t the entire continent be in chaos? If the people knew about their Abyssal Demon identities, would they still calmly accept their rule?

There would definitely be more and more rebel organizations like the "Salvation Association" appearing.

In that case, the "peaceful" situation that Kalina and Xiao had painstakingly maintained would probably be shattered by her.

Sigh…

She didn’t want things to develop to that point!!

"…"

What was I thinking? How could I have forgotten about this point when considering the plan before?!!

Thinking of this, Yuan’er had the urge to bang her head against the wall.

Forget it. If such a situation really occurred, couldn’t I just kill all the people who didn’t cooperate with keeping it a secret?

"Hehe, hehe~"

For a moment, under the strange gazes of Eliza and the others, Yuan’er couldn’t help but let out a series of eerie laughs.

Fortunately, Yuan’er’s chaotic state didn’t last long.

Just as Yuan’er felt conflicted and uneasy, starting to have wild thoughts, a gentle, familiar, and reassuring voice slowly drifted into Yuan’er’s ears. It directly dispelled the group of chaotic thoughts in Yuan’er’s mind.

"As for the social issues, Little Yuan’er doesn’t need to worry. Let your sister handle it. Yuan’er only needs to play the role of the city lord’s daughter well on the stage."

This voice?!

"Sister Kalina!!"

Following the voice, Yuan’er suddenly turned her head and looked towards the door. That red-haired woman wearing a red low-cut evening gown appeared in Yuan’er’s sight. Seeing that familiar and reliable figure she hadn’t seen for a long time, Yuan’er was instantly overjoyed. She, who had already grown into a young lady, seemed to have turned into a child again. Without a second word, she pounced and threw herself into Kalina’s arms.

"Hehe, Sister Kalina~, you’re here~."

"Of Corse, how could your sister possibly not come to my cute sister’s engagement banquet?"

Patting the back of the pink-haired girl in her arms, Kalina said dotingly.

"Since I’m already here, Yuan’er doesn’t need to worry about those trivial matters. Your sister will handle them cleanly for you. Yuan’er only needs to play the role of the city lord’s daughter well."

"Mm mm!"

Yuan’er obediently nodded repeatedly and affectionately kept rubbing against Kalina’s face, making even Kalina show a hint of a helpless expression.

At this moment, the uneasiness and apprehension on Yuan’er’s face had completely dissipated. Evidently, Kalina’s arrival was equivalent to a calming anchor, instantly stabilizing Yuan’er’s heart. With a solid backing here, she no longer had any worries.

"As expected, Sister Kalina is the best."

"Alright, alright, you silly girl, stop rubbing. Your servants are all watching."

Kalina leaned down and whispered in Yuan’er’s ear.

And hearing these words, Yuan’er very obediently stopped acting spoiled as and once again transformed into an elegant and beautiful young lady.

Seeing Yuan’er like this, Kalina showed a satisfied smile.

Afterwards, Kalina leaned down again and got close to Yuan’er’s ear:

"How is the plan progressing? Have any suspicious people appeared?"

"No."

Yuan’er shook her head very honestly:

"There are no signs of intrusion, and no abnormalities have been found in the delegations of various forces so far. Mom seems to have not entered Night Wish City yet."

"However, it’s also possible that Mother has already come in but hasn’t exposed her whereabouts yet."

"Mm, that’s a possibility. Mom might still be hiding in the dark and observing."

"Yeah... If that’s the case, then it’ll be up to you Yuan’er, to stimulate her a bit more at the upcoming engagement banquet~."

"Mm mm, leave it to me,!"
