Chapter 248: Chapter 248: Tainted Silver
"I apologize for what you were forced to experience, Queen Nerthus; I'm sure their Majesties will adequately reimburse you for your troubles." Said Illumia as she turned away from Elaine, who was lying on the bed, thinking incredibly sinister and dangerous thoughts before looking at Nerthus and bowing.
"Reimburse me? I was nearly killed, Illumia, within the Elven territory by the Crown Princess no less; a simple reimbursement won't be enough." Remarked Nerthus angrily as she took a second to calm herself, lest she lashed out in anger and did something she'd quickly regret.
"I understand, Queen Nerthus; we should speak about this with Majesties; they'll come to an-" Replied Illumia softly as she tried placating Nerthus, though she wasn't the only one who was angry, several others were as well.
"That's not going to solve the issue, Illumia; this crazy and psychotic girl needs to be heavily punished, if not at the very most put down. Someone like her will only end up ruining Elif's reputation. I can now see why he doesn't hesitate at the idea of eloping with me; he probably wants to get as far away as possible from her." Stated Suscila with an ugly expression as she looked at Elaine lying on her bed before eying Illumia and Nerthus, though her words caused everyone to freeze.
"E-Elope? What do you mean by that, Suscila?" Asked Sarah, who had been quietly watching everything unfold since, was so shocked by Elaine's sudden change that she only now regained her bearings.
"Hehehe, Yes, Suscila; what do you mean by that?" Asked Elaine with a maniacal chuckle and demented expression as she lifted her head, eyeing Suscila, who smirked, causing Elaine to frown.
"Earlier today, your precious Brother confessed his love for me while saying how eagerly he wants to leave this empire and spend the rest of his long life with me." Stated Suscila with a smirk and a lovely expression as she rested her hands atop her heart before glaring at Elaine.
'Miss Illumia, should we say the truth?' Asked Marley via divine sense as she fed Idonea a pill before looking at Illumia, who was sporting an ugly expression.
'Haa, no; we all know how much His Highness despised kissing Suscila; he'll be thoroughly upset if he discovers everything he endured was for naught.' Replied Illumia via divine sense with a troubled expression as she looked between Elaine and Suscila before eventually sighing and shaking her head.
'Are you sure, Illumia?' Asked Mandy via divine sense with an uneasy face as she stood beside Marley while the three stayed at a distance, overlooking everything.
"No." Muttered Illumia; although it was a whisper, Marley, Mandy, and Idonea perfectly heard her.
"His Highness, confessing his love for you? I find that incredibly hard to believe, Suscila; I've known him for a long time, so even if he truly does love you, he's far too prideful to ever confess his love to someone." Declared Sarah with a deep frown as she shook her head, denying Suscila's words, and she wasn't the only one.
"Yes, I must agree with Sarah on the matter; as heartbreaking as it is, Prince Elif views us as beneath him, and given his pride, he'd never fall in love with someone he considered beneath him." Stated Eyvor solemnly with an unsightly expression as she thought back to when Elif first visited the Fairy Clan.
"Yes, he's told me straight to my face that he doesn't see me as his equal while I was rubbing my body against his." Said Nerthus with a slightly calm expression, her words causing everyone to be taken somewhat aback, but they quickly got over it and glared at her in annoyance.
"Echo and I would like not to get involved in this conversation." Said Shelia softly with a nod as she glanced at everyone, then Elaine before backing away along with Echo, leaving Eyvor, Sarah, Suscila, and Nerthus to remain in the conversation.
"With all due respect, Queen Nerthus, someone of your stature shouldn't be seeking intimacy with Elif, though, if you wish to get into detail, he didn't only confess his love for me." Stated Suscila with furrowed brows as she turned and glanced at Nerthus, who raised her eyebrow while Elaine silently watched the four, her eyes getting darker and more sinister with every word spoken.
"You're not the only one, Suscila; I've had the pleasure of feeding His Highness, and while it may not sound that intimate, he flirts with random women daily, but he never lets them feed him food. Only a select few have gotten the chance." Declared Sarah as she folded her arms and eyed both Suscila and Nerthus, seemingly competing with them over their intimacy with Elif.
"I-I took a bath with Prince Elif. I-In the nude?" Said Eyvor hesitantly, her words causing the three to look at her with a scowl while she proudly smirked amidst her blushed cheeks
"Hehehe, Hahaha! I don't think I've been so angry that I've been amused! You four are speaking as if Brother is someone you can have; you all are going to die before you can ever do anything intimate with him!" Said Elaine with a crazed expression as she eyed the four while blasting her killing intent at them at full force, shocking them all with how potent and overbearing it was considering her young age.
"Such a dense killing intent; she must've killed at least ten or so thousand people already and merely at the age of twelve, no less." Muttered Nerthus with slightly widened eyes as she sensed the extremely dark killing intent radiate off Elaine like she was the abyss itself.
"Tsk, she truly is a crazy girl; someone deranged like her doesn't deserve to be called even the sister of Elif." Remarked Suscila with an unsightly face as she warily eyed Elaine.
"I-Is this truly you, Elaine?" Asked Sarah fearfully as she backed away and looked at Elaine, feeling as if she'd been lied to this entire time.
"T-This isn't the Princess Elaine Prince Elif speaks about; she's nothing like her." Muttered Eyvor with a deep frown as she furrowed her brows while looking at Elaine.
"Your Highness, please compose yourself." Said Illumia softly, though all she got was a psychotic look from Elaine.
"Don't think I've forgotten about you, Illumia; I'll kill you and those three one day. Brother is mine, and mine alone; while he'll be a little sad at your deaths, but it's fine since I'll be there for him." Declared Elaine with a crooked grin as she eyed Illumia, Mandy, Idonea, and Marley before eyeing the other four.
"Stay delusional all you want, Elaine, but Elif is mine, and you don't need to believe me; I have all the evidence right here." Stated Suscila with a shake of her head as she touched her temple before removing her finger, dragging out a small piece of her soul.
"This is the memory of Elif confessing his love for me; enjoy." Added Suscila with a smirk as she looked at everyone, prompting them to inject their divine sense into the small piece of her soul.
"P-Prince Elif, he'd never do such a thing, would he?" Muttered Eyvor sadly as she looked at the memory, watching Elif confess his 'love' to Suscila.
"Hmm, he seems rather experienced with stimulating a woman's breasts." Said Nerthus lightly as she watched Elif tease Suscila's breast to the point where she climaxed, causing the current her to blush a little.
"Eh, his H-Highess? I-I can't believe it, S-Suscila was speaking the truth." Whispered Sarah quietly, slight tears forming in her eyes as she watched the love of her life confess to another woman.
"HeHEhehEHehEHehEhehe, HahAhAHhaAha!" Remarked Elaine with beyond-psychotic laughter while her usual radiant silver eyes were slowly tainted with blackness as her killing intent intensified many-folds.
"Y-Your Highness?" Asked Illumia softly in slight fear while still pressuring Elaine as she slowly approached the bed, only to freeze when she looked at her and noticed her tainted eyes.
"Illumia." Said Elaine as she suddenly quieted down and stopped laughing while calmly eyeing Illumia, which only served to unnerve her.
"Y-Yes, your Highness?" Asked Illumia, who bowed while everyone silently watched.
"Release me." Ordered Elaine calmly, her words forcing Illumia into a tough spot.
"Y-Your Highness, I would, but I've got orders from their Majesties; I'm also worried you may try killing someone again." Said Illumia while bowing, though Elaine practically ignored her words.
"Release me, Illumia, I won't attack anyone. I promise." Stated Elaine sincerely, though her calmness had the opposite effect on everyone.
"Tch, she's lying; she's just jealous her dear Brother chose me over her; not like anyone would want someone crazy like her anyone." Remarked Suscila with a frown as she summoned her sword from her dimension ring while glaring at Elaine, who chuckled in amusement.
"Hehe, Brother, choosing you over me? You don't know Brother like I do; he's merely toying with your heart and emotions. I don't think there is anything more fitting than for your heart to be ruthlessly crushed when you finally realize Brother was just playing with you; I can't wait for that day to arrive." Declared Elaine softly as she tilted her head and looked at Suscila, finding her situation amusing despite the intense desire she had to rip her soul out of her body and eat it.
Feeling Illumia's Qi vanish, I slowly got out of my bed and eyed them all; one day, I'd kill them all. After all, I would allow no one but me to be by Brother's side.
"Hehehe." Said Elaine while chuckling as she ignored them all and skipped out of her room, only for her personality to change instantly.
"Make sure to keep quiet about what happened; we don't want Brother knowing the secret." Added Elaine with a sweet smile as she placed her finger over her mouth and looked at everyone in her room before turning around and leaving, Maxim following behind her.
