Chapter 29: As Expected of You

“Goodbye! Even though we just met not too long ago, let me say this: I’m absolutely thrilled that I’ll never have to see your face again!”

Aierjisi stood behind her, firing a beam of light directly at Freya. Accompanied by Freya’s screams, her body exploded. The blast was so powerful that it sent both Yake and Aierjisi inside the God Palace flying.

Yake crashed against the wall and fell down. But Aierjisi wasn’t so lucky; she got blasted out of the God Palace and rolled down the stairs, tumbling several times before landing at the very bottom.

“Whew, that woman’s explosion power is seriously something else. I mean, that kind of shockwaves would’ve definitely killed me if I hadn’t transformed into part non-human by now.”

Yake struggled to get up, assessing the damage to his body. Thankfully, he wasn’t human anymore; otherwise, he would’ve been obliterated by that blast.

I wonder how Aierjisi is doing? I should check on her.

“Ah… you guys really have some guts, treating two garbage like this!”

【？！】

Hearing Freya’s voice, Yake couldn’t believe his eyes as he looked at the figure emerging from the smoke.

How is it possible? She’s still alive? After getting hit by Aierjisi’s beam and that huge explosion, how could she possibly still be standing?

“Yake! How’s it over there?!”

Meanwhile, Aierjisi, still oblivious to the situation, ran back up the stairs after being blasted out.

“Aier, it’s extremely dangerous! Hurry and run!”

“Ah!”

No sooner had Yake finished speaking than Aierjisi let out a scream—just then, Freya had landed a punch right in her gut.

“You piece of trash! How dare you treat me like this! Die! You will pay with your life!”

Freya relentlessly pounded Aierjisi with her fists, leaving her no chance to even scream, her mouth couldn’t make a sound.

But turning Aierjisi into this state clearly wasn’t enough to quell Freya’s rage. She yanked Aierjisi by her hair, dragging her up.

“Hey? Are you dead? You shouldn’t be dead yet, right? After all, you Blood Clan folks are known for your cockroach-like vitality; how could you die from such minor wounds? Right, you can’t just die like this. My fun with you is far from over!”

Looking at Aierjisi’s delicate face, Freya pressed her down against the ground, rubbing her face into the stone floor of the God Palace.

“Stop… stop it… you crazy woman! Don’t continue to hit Aier!”

Yake, still lying on the side, couldn’t bear to watch his master being so brutally beaten.

This is no longer just a beating; this method is way too cruel! A girl’s face is the most important thing, right? There’s a saying: hit people but don’t hit their face. Yet Freya specifically targeted Aierjisi’s face!

Meanwhile, Aierjisi was so dazed from Freya’s previous attacks that she couldn’t even tell if she was alive or dead. But based on the fact that Yake was still alive, she should be okay.

“How’s it? Can you still talk? Just say something for me, will you?”

Grabbing Aierjisi by the hair, Freya lifted her up so their faces were level. After that torment, the anger in Freya had cooled somewhat.

Of course, that was assuming Aierjisi wouldn’t do anything to provoke her again.

“Choo…”

Aierjisi mustered her remaining strength to spit at Freya’s face.

【！】

“You little punk! You’re tired of living, huh? Fine, since you want to die so badly, I’ll oblige!”

Aierjisi’s actions undoubtedly infuriated Freya. She threw her down and stomped harshly on Aierjisi’s head.

“Stop… stop it… you have to stop!!!”

Yake could no longer watch the scene unfold. He forced himself up and shoved Freya aside, cradling Aierjisi’s battered body as he fled to safety.

“Hey, Aier, are you okay? Say something, Aier!”

Looking down at Aierjisi, who was barely human anymore, Yake had never felt such fear. He was genuinely terrified that Aierjisi might die just like this. Not because he feared for himself if she died. He was simply afraid of losing her. How would he live without Aierjisi by his side? He couldn’t bear to even imagine it.

On the other side, Aierjisi had already passed out. After using the last of her strength to spit at Freya, she faded into unconsciousness.

Then, Gabriel seized the opportunity to connect with her mind and began to communicate.

“Ha, you really are fearless. Even after being beaten to a pulp by that woman, you still dared to spit at her. I don’t even know what to say to you.”

Gabriel rubbed his temples, commenting on Aierjisi’s actions. This girl was something else.

“Because I really can’t stand that woman, so I did it. What’s wrong with that?”

“This isn’t about being right or wrong! You need to know who you’re dealing with. That lady is the Ultimate Life Form! How dare you act like that?! Are you looking to throw your life away?”

Facepalming at Aierjisi’s deadpan response, Gabriel couldn’t hold back.

“I know! But I just can’t stand her, which is why I acted like that.”

“You… Whatever. Do you realize how much worry you just caused that kid named Yake? Open your eyes and look properly!”

Gabriel, weary of wasting more time, activated a screen to show Aierjisi the real-world chaos outside.

Right now, Yake was desperately trying to shield Aierjisi’s battered body while calling her name, hoping she would wake up.

“Oops, looks like I really owe him an apology. Let’s cut off our contract now and let him be a free man. Ah!”

Before Aierjisi could act, Gabriel couldn’t help but punch her on the head.

“What kind of nonsense is going on in that head of yours?! Your boyfriend is this worried about you and you don’t even comfort him? You’re thinking about breaking up instead?!”

“I can’t help it! Since it’s come to this, it’s only sensible for him to ditch this burden named me!”
