The Young Master in the Shadows
Chapter 447: The Pervert And The Demoness (1)
Chapter 447: The Pervert And The Demoness (1)
The pervert, AKA Victor, watched as one by one the participants went away, then returned with new shiny personalities.
It was as if they had all lost all their will to live for themselves and gain a higher purpose in life.
Dario’s turn finally came after more than three hours. That guy, who stopped talking to Victor after the latter’s last very inappropriate remark, went away with determination, then returned only 10 minutes later!
Like the rest, Other than the pale face and firm determinate look in his eyes, he had that Soul Slave status,
“How was the Princess?” Victor asked him as soon as he stepped into the waiting room.
“Like the sun in a sea of darkness! Like an Oasis in the middle of the desert! I will serve her with all my power!” he said with a feverish tone.
“Did you manage to make her fall for you?” Victor asked again as Dario headed straight to the door. He wanted to make sure that his memories were intact. Slaving curses came in all shapes and kinds, and Victor wanted to know what he was facing.
“Ha...” Dario sighed., “I can’t believe I thought of such stupid things before! Thankfully the princess was generous enough to forgive my rude behavior and show me how blind, mistaken, and naive I was... Now I can see!” Dario replied, turning away and leaving immediately as if he had things to do.
“Next...” the female knight said. It was Ridgar’s turn.
The guy didn’t move. It was clear that he really wanted to escape, but he had no way out.
“Sir Ridgar... It is your turn...”
Ridgar still didn’t move, he just sat there nervously, refusing to budge from his couch like a scared kid at the dentist’s. His arrogant demeanor from before the contest was all gone.
“Ha...” the female knight sighed. “Let’s get him to meet the princess... She really wants to ask you about that peasant girl you raped and killed a few months ago...” she said, flicking her finger, making three very muscular guards appear from behind the curtains scattered around the room then drag him toward the door.
“Nooo..... LIES ALL LIES... SHE WAS THE ONE WHO SEDUCED ME... NOOoooooooo... ”
Ridgar’s voice faded as he disappeared into the unknown.
...
“Were those guards always there?” Victor asked the female knight as he watched the gate close.
“... Yes, they are part of the princess’s personal legion...” she smirked, wanting to watch this bastard act a little scared like Ridgar.
“Oh... They have nicely trained butts... Just imagine the possibilities if I can get my hand on one of them...” he said, licking his lip while clenching his fist as if he was squeezing something juicy.
“....” The female knight’s face fell. She really didn’t want to imagine that, but the image that appeared naturally in her mind was so vivid and disturbing that it would be very hard to forget.
One of the curtains moved a little. A guard with some wild imagination behind it imagined some similar scenes and intended to go kill Victor directly, but a friend in the adjacent curtain stopped him in time.
Yup, there were other guards still around, 7 still to be exact, And their levels were all in the 50s.
Victor nodded, if he were to throw some soul wine here and make those guards hallucinate a little... Imagine the possibilities!
...
After that 20 minutes passed quickly... Ridgar didn''t return...
“It is your turn at last!” the female knight told Victor after going away for a moment.
“What about that guy who went in earlier?” Victor asked with a frown.
“He angered the princess....” she just said that.
“Oh...” Victor frowned. “What did he do?”
“Tried to cheat!” she said coldly.
“Cheat on the princess?” Victor gasped. “HOW DARE HE.... Were they dating or something?” he whispered in shock.
“Cheat THE princess...’ the female knight corrected him, she could no longer tell whether this guy was a genuine pervert or was putting on an act.
“Oh, still very disgusting...” he nodded, “Did the princess calm down?”
“Ah... I think so...” she said.
“Good, I don’t like courting angry girls, you see...”
“... She is fine... In fact, she can’t wait to meet you... Let’s go... follow me,” she said, deciding to take him to see the princess by herself!
“Oh... Cool!” Victor stood up and quickly followed. “She must have heard about how cool I am from the other guys!”
SQUEAK SQUEAK SQUEAK SQUEAK......
...
After getting inspected for hidden weapons by the storm priestesses at the door, Victor was quickly guided into a short corridor that led to another room.
No, not exactly a room...
Victor was not sure if this place could be called a room anymore... It was a huge, very huge... If he couldn''t see the high vaulted ceiling, Victor would have thought they were outside due to how this place was lit and arranged like some kind of a serene garden.
It didn’t only have a small river passing through, but also a pond and strange purple and green plants growing all around. Those were dungeon plants... They would become very popular as indoor decorations after the Reckoning in his world too, but this was the first time Victor saw a full indoor garden like this.
As soon as he entered, his eyes automatically followed the stone-lined path, moving toward the exquisite white wood gazebo in the middle of the garden. In it, he finally got to see that fabled Princess Aerith who was sitting at a huge mahogany desk, sipping some tea while reading some kind of a report from a well-organized stack to her right.
Wait... Was this place her office or something?
As they walked closer, Victor began to carefully inspect the princess.
Other than being tall, and elegant. She had a pretty face, red eyes, striking white long hair, and a long ivory-colored jagged horn sticking from the middle of her forehead rising a couple inches above her head!
Her features and demeanor made her appear more like she was some kind of an unapproachable heavenly deity or something.
Overall, she could be considered a stunning beauty. Victor decided to grant her a score of 11.5 on his old Lily scale. Yup, she was more beautiful than Lily before that chick awakened her bloodline, learned how to bite, and went flying off the scales.

“Now, I want you to write what you want from me on this paper here and keep it hidden. It will be revealed after you win!” she said as she pushed an empty piece of paper, an ink bottle, and a feather toward him. “Remember, it can be anything...”
“I want you to be my wife!” He said directly as he began writing with some difficulty. He was not used to using those primitive things.
“No need to tell me...” she smirked as she wrote something... VICTOR’S SOUL. Once she got his soul, she would take half of it to replenish her own, then use the other half to control him into being a decent man.
“Oh... ok...” Victor nodded as he finished writing and then folded the paper.
“Just hold it with your hand!” she said dismissively.
“Ah ok...” he said as he began to lick his lips, acting as a pervert to keep his act. “Where is the curse I need to dispel!” he said with a confident smirk as he began to look around.
“One minute...” she said then looked outside the Gazebo, “Clear the Serene Garden, No one shall enter before I allow it!” she ordered the maids, those who were on standby, and those who were clearing the leaves... The one who finished the burial process too!
“Yes milady!” they all said as they retreated quickly.
5 minutes later, the garden was empty.
“Now... Raise the paper in your hand as I do and repeat after me...” she said, raising the paper she wrote her wish on. “I ACCEPT THE GAME!” she yelled.
“I ACCEPT THE GAME...” Victor said casually.
BAM! Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaa...
The papers burst into blue flames and disintegrated in a split second!
WARNING...
AN X-RANKED ARTIFACT THE BLIND DEVIL’S ARBITER IS TRYING TO MAKE YOU ENTER INTO A BET, DO YOU AGREE?
Victor pressed Yes, then watched the new entry in the artifact get added.

VICTOR TO DISPEL A CURSE SPECIFIED BY AERITH WITHIN 60 MINUTES
“Let’s go... Dispel my curse!” she told him directly. “You have 60 minutes!”
“Your curse?” he asked, feigning ignorance.
“Yes!” she said, wanting to finish this farce quickly
“What kind of curse is it?”
“You don’t need to know...”
“Ah... Well... Fine...” he said as he began to take off his armor. “One moment....”
SQUEAK... SQUEAK..... SQUEAK....
“What are you doing?” she asked with a frown.
“You will see...” he said as he struggled with the armor.
SQUEAK... SQUEAK..... SQUEAK....
Watching him, Aerith began to sweat as her expression turned from a frown to panic. Just now she thought of a loophole that she didn’t consider earlier?...
COULD IT BE....
NO! SHE WAS FOOLED! THIS BASTARD HAD PLAYED HER MAKING HER THINK HE WAS AN IDIOT! HE PLAYED THEM ALL!
If this pervert’s method to dispel the curse was to sleep with her... She wouldn''t be able to stop him! If she tried to do so, that would be considered interfering with the bet and she would lose...
NO! HOW CAN THAT BE! SHE EVEN GAVE HIM AN ENTIRE HOUR.... DAMN IT!
SHIT. HE WAS GOING TO...
Her racing thoughts suddenly paused as she watched Victor take a talisman from his purple underpants then quickly put the squeaky armor back on.
‘That is....” she asked in a low voice.
“A curse-dispelling talisman that my master gave me! He said it was a super talisman that would dispel any curse and that I should only use it in emergencies!” Victor said proudly.
“... “ Aerith just stood there, looking at him like she was looking at an insect. She felt sorry that for the tiniest moment there, she feared him and thought he had a brain. This guy was an idiot!
This talisman was clearly a normal one... No, it was beyond that, it was the cheapest kind! The only difference between it and the one she could buy from any store was the crappy smiley face drawn on it!
“...” she sighed. “Let’s finish with this farce...” she finally said, she was really getting tired.
“Ok!” Victor said, pasting the talisman directly on her forehead.
BAM!
