Her small face was already tinged with a reddish blush as her beautiful eyes radiated desire.
Countless droplets of water slid down her hair, over her face, down her neck, along her collarbone, and finally over her vestigial breasts and back into the barrel.
Bella's somewhat petite body was radiating temptation, and it caused something repressed inside Lin to crawl out.
She wrapped her arms around Lin's neck and exhaled, letting her hot breath hit his face, her delicate body pressed closely against his.
"Lin, you'll take responsibility, won't you?"
Her enchanting voice filled his ears, if Bella really was a demon, then Lin would definitely classify her as a powerful one.
"You saw, and touched, and kissed, you took so many of my firsts except for the last step." She licked Lin's ear, "If you don't agree, I'll throw you out of the car~"
"And I‘m being very reasonable here, if you agree, I'll not only share you with my sisters, but I'll also help you conquer them and make them both succumb to you."
At the same time, her finger was circling Lin's back, "Anything Lin can't do alone, he can do with my help~"
"Guh~"
The immense pressure of both physical and mental origin caused Lin's heart to shake forcefully.
What kind of relationship did he and Bella really have?
The blurred line had been crossed. They clearly understood each others thoughts and feeling. Would it be too pretentious to pretend to be unaware?
Lin ran his hand through her hair, his mind frantically processing the stream of thoughts currently storming through his mind.
After a moment of silence, his hand dropped down to Bella's face, sliding over her cheek and red lips, "You..."
"Boom!"
Lin was about to speak when a loud explosion resounded from the distant palace.
Bella glanced up at the clock on the wall, it was past seven o'clock.
Her eyes twinkled and the corners of her mouth curled into a slightly cheerful smile, "Brother Lin, the fireworks display has begun."
......
A little before then, the golem that Bella had left behind followed the knights to the examination room that Lin used to visit every month.
The golem was flanked by a group of the king's knights and anyone who tried to approach was kept away.
A sharp journey eventually led to the basement beneath the great hall, and by the time the group arrived it was more than heavily guarded, a closer look revealed that they all belonged to the king.
"Click!"
Opening the hidden metal door, the king's underlings led the two knights with the golem inside.
Walking through the narrow passageway, the underground room opened up and the illuminated basement reflected in the puppet's eyes.
"Your Highness Lin, here we are."
Leading the puppet to the empty underground square, the underlings and knights stood guard at the exit.
The place had changed drastically from what Lin had seen before.
The healing equipment that had been there the last time around had long since disappeared, leaving only a circular raised platform of a ten metre radius, with stairs leading up to it.
It had a brand new colour and had obviously only recently been constructed.
Bowing down, the puppet climbed up the stairs, and as it did, everything around it became brighter.
There was an ornate box directly opposite it, and the magnificently dressed king was sitting on his throne, his face as pale as death in the soft white light.
Next to this luxurious box were a number of smaller boxes, which, if Lin had been here, he would have been able to tell that they were all property of princes and nobles at the king's side.
Their bodies leaned forward slightly in their chairs, their eyes full of greed; for them, this was a chance to change their lives.
"My lords, the kingdom is weak, the storm is shattering, and I am in danger of being killed by thieves."
His weak voice reached every corner of the underground square through a loudspeaker: "Our neighbours are spying on us and the army is overextended on our borders. The princess is disloyal and has tainted said army with her disloyalty. The Grand Duke has broken all precedent and has seceded for his own benefit.
In this dire time of crisis, I implore you to join me."
"I am at your service, my lord!"
The nobles responded in unison, but they did not listen to the king's words at all, their eyes focused on "Lin" on the high platform.
The king coughed and spat out a mouthful of bloody phlegm: "Very well, for the sake of the kingdom and prosperity, I will sacrifice my favourite third prince to create new possibilities for all of us."
The king raised his hands high and shouted, "God wills it, this is an opportunity given to us by Him."
Only at the end did he look at Lin on the high platform and ask, "My favourite child, do you wish to sacrifice yourself to save the kingdom and the world?"
The puppet, which had been bowing its head, raised its head proudly at this time, revealing a mocking smile on its face, which resembled Lin's.
The corners of its mouth rose unnaturally as it spoke Louise's voice; "Father, did you ask for my permission before you sacrificed Lin?"
The calm but clearly insane voice resounded through the basement room, and everyone froze in their chairs. Even the king, who had a premonition of extreme danger, sat paralyzed on his throne.
As if anticipating this scene, the puppet closed its scarlet eyes, and a sound came out of its mouth softly: "Seventh Order - Dashed with Smoke and Fire"
This time, it was Elena's voice that spoke.
As soon as the words were spoken, seven dazzling magic circles rose up around the golem, enveloping it.
With a flash of red, the puppet turned into particles floating in the centre of the magic circles, and with another sharp flash of red light, these particles burst into flames, exploding forth.
The stars were blazing in the sky.
A grand firework, erupting from the depths of the palace halls, a misty red light that cleansed away all hypocrisy.
A split second before it all erupted, two high-ranking guards stepped in front of the king.
"BOOM!"
The whole kingdom felt the earth tremble as huge pillars of fire rushed out of the centre of the palace into the sky and into the clouds above.
The ash that had been thrown into the sky slowly fell back to the ground, still faintly alight, raining down for all to see.
The fireworks were trumpeting call for change, and the forces at the call of Louise and Elena sprang into action at the first opportunity, surrounding the entire palace as they arrested all the forces of the king.
By now the palace had been turned into a giant crater, and all the commoners in the kingdom knew was that the exquisite palace had been spewing smoke and fire for a day and a night.
