Chapter 4: Roline’s Ending
【×月18日】
I get it now.
TheCertificate of Kingshiprefers to the rulers of different races, the remnants of ancient demigods.
The Titan King Ymir, the Sea Beast KingLeviathan, the Serpent King Hydra… They once led entire tribes and touched the threshold of divine power—true demigods! That’s why thoseCultistscall these things theCertificate of Kingship!
To collect theCertificates of Kingship, there are two paths.
One is to search for treasure through official channels, but given the passage of time, it’s mostly a rare find, so I can’t rely on that route alone.
The other is to killCultists. Even if they don’t have theCertificate of Kingship, they’ll have extraordinary materials enough for theFalse Kingto absorb!
Heh heh, beasts, get ready to drop some gold coins.】
TheCultistshave aCertificate of Kingship!? Isn’t this quicker than flapping around like a headless fly at auctions and treasure hunts?!
Roy’s heart raced, but just as he was eager to turn the page, his pupils suddenly dilated.
【×月21日:】
I was so naïve. The greater the power, the heavier the cost; I underestimated divine power.】
That day’s entry was a mere sentence, the distorted handwriting stained with dried blood, stabbing deep into Roy’s eyes.
【×月22日】
Extraordinary power comes at a price. I was caught up in the power of theFalse Kingand forgot this basic principle.
Just likeCultistsare tainted by the power of evil gods, divine power can affect my body, mind, and even soul.
And not all demigods are kind to humans. Recklessly absorbing theCertificate of Kingshipfrom a pale lich nearly turned half my organs into undead and almost cost me my life.
Next time, before confirming the demigod associated with theCertificate of Kingship, I must never absorb it recklessly again.
But speaking of theHoly Light Church, their methods are truly miraculous; they can heal the pollution caused by divine power. I should interact more with these priests and nuns in the future.】
As Roy silently sighed in relief, he also deeply noted this bloody lesson.
When it was his turn to handle theCertificates of Kingship, he needed to be cautious, lest he absorb the divine power of some evil god and drop dead on the spot.
As for theHoly Light Church, they are the biggest backing of Alice Angelia, the protagonist ofAngel’s Waltz, ruling the entire Eastern Continent, so it’s no surprise they can heal divine power pollution.
After learning from experience, Roline became more cautious in her actions, but her good luck seemed to have run out.
For a long time after that, she couldn’t find reliableCertificates of Kingshipand was constantly harassed byCultists, leaving her in a frenzy, eventually leading her to seek help from theHoly Light Church.
Her notes no longer bore the optimism and wildness of her youth; every word was suffused with deep despair. Only when mentioning Carl, Anya, and Rob—their dear friends—could one vaguely sense some warmth.
However, the turning point of fate was imminent.
【×月12日:】
Carl got injured.】
【×月13日:】
I killed the bastard who hurt Carl.
But even when I ripped out thatCultist’s heart, he was still laughing.
I’m suddenly so tired.
These crazies are like stubborn weeds; no matter how many you burn down, they’ll just keep coming back. There’s no negotiating, no threatening; it’s a battle of life and death.
Perhaps this is the fate of theFalse King.
And the people I love will be dragged into it.
This time it was Carl; who will it be next? Even for me, I can’t protect everyone.
I need to think.
Really need to think.】
【×月18日:】
I had a fight with Carl.
It was the first time I saw him so angry.
Because I said I wanted to travel the continent alone; it was understandable for him to blow up.
But I have no choice.
TheCultists’ pursuit is relentless; I have to get stronger.
The Lionheart Kingdom and theAcademycan’t provide any moreCertificates of Kingship. If I want to strengthen the bloodline of theFalse King, I can only travel the continent.
But Carl must have seen through my true intentions.
That’s right; I no longer want to hold them back. In the worst case, I’d just be a lone corpse in the wild, which is far better than dragging them into this mess.
Whether it’s Carl or Rob, maybe in the future, they’ll become formidable figures who can face theCultists.
But I can’t wait that long.
From that day on, I dreamt every night of them being murdered byCultists.
I won’t let things go that far.】
With this, the notes had already passed halfway.
Roline left without a word, bearing the fate of being pursued byCultists, embarking on a journey without an end.
Having someone she deeply loved, yet needing to separate forever to protect him—how similar this was to Siegfreid facing the dragon to protect his beloved princess!
To protect her loved ones, she was willing to forsake hope for life, quietly迎接 loneliness and the cold end.
That heavy realization nearly suffocated Roy as he thought of it, leaving him filled with unwillingness.
What if he encountered a situation similar to Roline’s or Siegfreid’s?
Roy shook his head, freeing himself from the gloomy emotions, flipping to the last few pages.
A solitary journey was incredibly arduous; while drifting and facing theCultists’ pursuit, it tormented her body and mind. To survive, Roline had to absorb theCertificate of Kingship, which was just piling on the misery.
The notes described her highs and lows, revealing madness, confusion, and murderous intent, but in the end, it all returned to an unfathomable solitude.
Just looking at the cold, hard text made Roy feel immensely oppressed.
Yet in this seemingly desperate situation, she found a glimmer of hope in the Eastern Continent.
【×月1日:】
That is…… real divine power!
No wonder theHoly Light Churchwas able to crush so manyCultistsback then!
I have to go to the Eastern Continent!
This journey will probably be quite dangerous, but if it’s the church, perhaps it can really end the fate of theFalse King!
Before I go, I should return once.
Will Carl forgive me?】
This was the last page of the notes.
After that story, Roy learned a bit from Carl.
Roline returned for a brief and peaceful time with Carl, giving birth to ‘Rogue Roy.’ But soon after, theCultistsbecame more active than ever, andVeszyrafell into a chaotic and dark time due to various disasters.
TheSecond War of Dragonsfrom the Lionheart Kingdom was a reflection of that dark time.
Carl and Rob, as warriors of Lionheart, stood at the forefront of defending their homeland. Meanwhile, Roline set out alone to explore the Eastern Continent for a way to end the fate of theFalse King.
But when the war ended, theHoly Light Churchbrought news of Roline’s death.
She never came back.
Even though there was no true blood relation, looking at the fate-laden predecessor and fellow townsman ending this way still raised a faint sorrow in Roy’s heart.
But this was Roline’s ending.
He wasn’t Roline and wouldn’t necessarily tread the same path.
Until the last moment came, Roy would never give up.
As Roy rubbed his tired eyes and lifted his head, he noticed a calm breathing sound coming from beside him.
The little maid was squinting her eyes, her fluffy golden hair bobbing as she struggled to stay upright, clearly exhausted, yet still doing her best not to fall over, resembling a cute little weeble that made Roy both laugh and feel heartbroken.
Just as he was about to wake her, the girl finally reached her limit and collapsed into his arms.
I’m Really Not Trying to Be Chased by the Heroine as the Villainous Playboy! – Chapter 151

I’m Really Not Trying to Be Chased by the Heroine as the Villainous Playboy!
反派恶少的我真不想被女主倒追啊 作No harem, no NTR.
I transmigrated into a *Feng Ao Tian* galgame as the villainous playboy and immediately offended the fated heroine! Following the plot would mean certain death!
To survive, I had no choice but to train the fated heroine into a loyal little maid while turning over a new leaf and keeping my distance from the other heroines.
But why is it that after I cleaned up my act and stayed away, they started chasing after me instead?!
So we’re dropping all pretenses now, huh? After ten years of careful cultivation, the fated heroine is already loyal to me! What’s there to fear from the rest of you?! Come at me!
“Alice, save me!”
But who would’ve thought that the cool and adorable saintess, my supposed loyal little maid, would dare to turn the tables on me?! How dare you rebel?!
“Master, I’m sorry, Alice has been a bad girl~”
I get it, I really do, but what’s with the hearts in your eyes?! Don’t come any closer!!!
