Chapter 38 - A Sweet Girl Won’t Be Fooled By The Villainess

Chapter 38 The Demon Slayer Medene's sudden action was unexpected, causing those present to react slowly. The silver decorated standard long sword was no more than four centimeters in size and when it was lightly thrown towards Amelia, it appeared as though Medene, in a fit of powerlessness and rage, had casually tossed it out. However, from the system's perspective, the small silver sword emitted a dazzling white light, like a sharp tool breaking through the barrier, heading straight into the abyss of the pitch-black fog. It seemed to have the momentum to tear apart the darkness completely. Seeing this, the system instantly became excited and came up with a bold guess. The props capable of suppressing demons in this world have been found! Bless the main god and let the evil heiress be eliminated directly, allowing this world to return to normal! Isn't it better to just have a sweet love story between Cinderella and the prince? Why add the element of a demon, which is so easy to mess up! "Is this a gift?" However, to the system's great anticipation, Amelia, as though discovering an interesting toy, did not dodge it but directly lifted her hand to grab the silver sword accessory in the palm of her hand. At the same time, the originally scattered black mist instantly turned into a viscous liquid. The silver sword wrapped in the black liquid seemed to have disappeared as it lost its radiance and dimmed. Then Amelia opened her palm and the silver sword had completely lost its effect. Now it was just an ordinary accessory. Medene's face froze in a crazed expression, staring in disbelief at the silver sword. She never thought it would turn out like this. It actually didn't work! Light should dispel darkness, and justice should abolish evil. How could it be ineffective!!! The stimulation of the failure of the silver sword to counteract the demon was too great, causing Medene to mutter to herself, "It's impossible. Disgusting creatures like demons can never overcome the light of justice. There must have been a mistake somewhere; the gods would not forsake their devout followers. I must eliminate the demons. Ah, I must eliminate the demons!" At the end, Medene shouted out in a deranged manner, looking just like a mad patient. At the same time, while she was shouting, the previously overlooked black bird also joined in. "Demon slayer, demon slayer..." The noisy chatter sounded ear-piercing in the enclosed space, causing Ifia to subconsciously move closer to Amelia. Geez, I've really encountered a crazy person! Before, listening to Amelia's account, it didn't feel like much, but now, seeing it with my own eyes, it feels a bit more real. It's just that, for some reason, I've felt a bit chilly since just now. Ifia's movement was not significant, but because she was holding hands with Amelia, any slight movement did not escape Amelia's notice. As she looked at Ifia's timid appearance from the corner of her eye, Amelia couldn't help but raise the corner of her mouth. Although witnessing the despair and helplessness of humans felt satisfying, that's all it amounted to. Even absorbing such traces of negative emotions felt like a waste. She initially thought she had found an interesting little toy. However, in reality, she overestimated it. The energy attached to the silver sword was quite peculiar, emitting a demonic aversion, and it could indeed suppress ordinary minor demons, but it was not enough for encountering major demons. Not to mention, the Amelia standing in front of Medene at the moment was at the peak level of the demon pyramid. Therefore, the quickly bored Amelia lost interest. However, out of some malicious intent, she injected the thick mana into the silver sword, instantly changing the item's attributes. The originally warm white light emanating from the silver sword was now like a dragon that had fallen into the abyss. "Ifia, take this as an apology for the disturbance." While the attribute of the silver sword had been changed, its power had actually increased. Ifia could use it to instantly crush any foolish demon that dared to harm her. In truth, Ifia wouldn't need these props if the demon mark was inscribed on her body and soul. However, the demon mark would make humans weak and mentally drained. Amelia temporarily did not want to weaken the lively Ifia; it was more interesting for her to remain spirited. "Okay!" Ifia, looking at the silver sword accessory handed to her by Amelia, did not disdain its origin. Amelia said it was Medene's apology, making her feel more at ease about taking it. Although it was in the style of a standard long sword, the carving was still exquisitely beautiful. Not to mention it was silverware. Once again evading the abyss-like gaze from Jesena behind her, Ifia gleefully pocketed the small silver sword, thinking that if she ever ran out of money, she could sell the silver accessory for quite a sum. She really was a frugal person! The system, quietly watching as Ifia happily accepted the silver sword and rejoiced internally, couldn't help but feel overwhelmed by the pain at that moment. Its hope for the demise of the evil heiress had vanished. And after this incident, the system dared not act rashly. The might of the demon that frightened the system was truly despairing, effortlessly transforming the demon-suppressing artifact into a different form. No wonder, if it were so easy to solve the problem of the evil heiress, this world would not have collapsed so many times. In fact, the system even doubted that by continuing to invest the system and the host in this world, the failure rate might change from hundreds of times to thousands of times... There was simply no possibility of success! The system was terrified by the power displayed by Amelia, and while it silently sulked, the soldiers, on the other hand, were each supporting Medene, making her already deranged expression even more frightening. "Miss Barren, we will hand Ms. Medene over to the Empire's police station, and report the act of using an item to intimidate a noble, making the police station aware in a timely manner." When the lead soldier mentioned Medene throwing the item, there was a hint of fear in his tone. It was evident that their failure to protect the Duke's daughter had left them feeling uneasy. If they encountered an ill-tempered noble, they might very well face punishment. However, the Duke's daughter, Miss Barren, was an outstanding and level-headed noble; she would definitely not hold anyone responsible for such a matter! Thinking this, the lead soldier glared fiercely at Medene, feeling that it was this woman who had caused them to inadequately protect the Duke's daughter, thus losing face in front of her. Medene, however, completely disregarded the soldiers' contempt. When Amelia silently nodded in understanding, Medene stared at Amelia, who was holding Ifia's hand. Then she turned her gaze to Ifia. This poor soul being toyed with by demons! The gods will bestow light to save the world! The saintess, who was given the holy artifact, will completely exterminate these abominable demons! After getting Amelia's nod, the soldiers immediately prepared to leave with Medene. But after taking a few steps, Medene suddenly struggled. She stared straight at Ifia with a pitiful tone. "Innocent lamb, if you encounter trouble in the future, go find the saintess! God won't abandon each child; He will definitely protect you from the hands of demons!"
