Divine Emperor of Death

Chapter 860 Unwilling To Lose

Princess Shirley sighed as she recalled the time she spent with Myria and Ellia in the First Layer.

The number of things she got to know and the number of things she lost and gained were plenty with them. It could be said that she now possessed a basic world view that is required to survive.

Even more, she couldnʼt help but shudder, that if she came to the First Layer alone, what kind of evils and sinister traps she would have fallen into? What kind of a tragic fate would she have met? She didnʼt find it hard to fathom because she had faced some already but was saved by Myria at all times.

If it werenʼt for Ellia and Myria, she knew that her life mightʼve been miserable and wouldnʼt have gone the way she wanted, to say the least.

Thinking like this, she felt all the more thankful to the two of them.

”No!” Esvele yelled in confidence.

”Senior sister didnʼt use me because senior sister chose to save me instead of killing Schneider! Although the sect rules state that killing is prohibited, if it is known that Schneider tried to scheme against us using the master token, he wouldʼve been caught red-handed! Senior sister had the absolute advantage and had him checked! Otherwise, Schneider would not just leave like this...”

Esvele wept, ”You saved me. Senior sister saved me...”

She didnʼt place senior sister Shirley on a pedestal but just mentioned as it is... She believed that Princess Shirley was righteous than any person she had ever seen.

Princess Shirley became speechless before she sighed, not willing to change her mind anymore, ”If you can understand all this, why did you agree to help Schneider? What did he promise to be able to corrupt the smart yet innocent Esvele I chose?”

Eslveleʼs bosoms shook as he tried to calm down.

”The blood essence of an Emperor Beast Stage Burning Phoenix, a magical beast core of a King Beast Stage Burning Phoenix, and a chance to become a direct disciple under his father, Grand Elder Valerian.”

”No wonder... You would definitely find it hard to reject this deal, and all you had to do was drug me...”

Princess Shirley giggled. She could understand that all these items could immensely bewitch any person as long as these items were extremely useful to them.

”No!”

”I didnʼt know that it was an aphrodisiac first! Only after I agreed did Schneider tell me that it was an aphrodisiac specially concocted to sedate senior sister Shirley. He said after lacing the aphrodisiac, I should instantly call him. I already said that Iʼm not going to do it, but he threatened me with an Imagery Stone that recorded our conversation, saying that he would show it senior sister Shirley.”

”Only then did I understand that I betrayed senior sister the moment I agreed after hearing about the rewards...” Esvele sobbed, but she felt giving all these excuses made her look only worse.

Afraid that senior sister Shirley would misunderstand, she added, ”Iʼm not saying this to justify myself, but I want senior sister to know the course of events...”

”I see... Just like I thought.” Princess Shirley resplendently smiled, ”Youʼre still redeemable...”

ʼLooks like theyʼve at least noticed that Iʼm stronger than the norm to reward Esvele like this...ʼ Inwardly, she mused.

These treasures that were bribed to Esvele were better than the ones the disciples would get upon gaining the title of a top disciple after getting results in the disciple recruitment exam or raising their strength to the top disciple level.

”Still, youʼre not smart enough to see through their intent, Esvele. You still lack the necessary foresight.”

”What do you mean, senior sister Shirley?” Esvele became confused.

”After Schneider obtains me, youʼll be left with two options. One, youʼll be framed and silenced to appease me just like Schneider offered me a while ago. Two, Schneider gets to keep us both. Do you really think that theyʼll let you be free after they give you all those treasures?”

Princess Shirley shook her head, ”Theyʼll at least make you give birth to a prodigy before killing you, but that also depends whether if you have completely submitted to Schneider or not.”

Esvele became pale as she looked at the ground. Hearing senior sister Shirleyʼs deduction, she felt that her reasoning and deduction were possible. Her body started to shake in fear.

It took her a few moments to recover.

”But, youʼre still young and can improve a lot. Are you willing to follow me like you first wanted to, loyally and faithfully?” Princess Shirley asked.

Esveleʼs mouth went agape, and her eyes were filled with longing, ”Can I?”

She had already betrayed senior sister Shirley once.

Will she be really given another chance?

Princess Shirley inwardly laughed, ʼThis has happened to me once before. At that time, I was drugged by my trusted sister but saved by my ex-fiancee. But this time, it was different. You never took action against me. If I can forgive her, why canʼt I forgive you?ʼ

She calmly nodded her head.

Esvele let out tears as she kowtowed, ”Esvele will never forget this favor and kindness in her life. Even if senior sister Shirley wants me to sacrifice my life, I am not unwilling!”

”Stand up.” Princess Shirley nodded her head, ”Show your willingness to be my follower and prove that you didnʼt betray me in the past with your actions.”

”Yes!” Esvele stood up as she stood in attention, her back taut and straight.

However, Princess Shirleyʼs eyes twitched as she looked at that heavily bouncing bosoms. Although she was a figure-admirer herself, she couldnʼt help but feel jealous.

Glancing at her own bosoms, which were only half its size, it was certainly ample and curvaceous but could not compare to Esveleʼs bosoms. It also reminded her of a green-haired woman who possessed bosoms comparable to Esveleʼs.

ʼDoes he like bigger ones? Is that why I lost?ʼ She couldnʼt help but think with a pout.

ʼNo, he isnʼt like that. It was me who was presumptuous and agreed to annul the marriage like a fool. If I had just kept it, he wouldʼve been mine instead...ʼ

Esvele noticed her senior sisterʼs gaze and became pale, ʼThis is bad. If senior sister Shirley doesnʼt want me, itʼs over!ʼ

”Senior sister! I feel jealous of your talent! You are greater in every aspect than me!”

Princess Shirley came out of her reverie and blinked before she smiled and shook her head, ”You donʼt need to console me. Jealousy is a common and valid emotion in every living being. You just donʼt need to not act on it a negative way so that you donʼt make your jealousy worse into envy.”

Esvele blinked.

How can senior sister Shirley speak such profound words? Her eyes sparkled with a tinge of worship.

Princess Shirley pursed her lips. It wasnʼt her words but Myriaʼs words, but she didnʼt say anything about it.

”Itʼs just that... I once lost to a woman like you, weaker than me yet voluptuous like a vixen...” Princess Shirley wryly uttered, but only after she let these words out did she wonder why she brought this matter out to her junior sister. They werenʼt even close to begin with...

ʼGuess I was unwilling to lose...ʼ She inwardly mused.

On the other hand, Esvele took a step back in shock, ʼSenior sister said that she lost to a weaker woman. Then that means... It isnʼt a battle, but... She lost her man to a voluptuous woman... like me?ʼ

”I...” Esvele didnʼt know how to or what to comment on.

It was like stepping on a killing formation no matter what she spoke.

Princess Shirley just shook her head as she smiled and turned away before flying out of the abode.

Esvele avidly followed her, afraid that she would get left behind. She didnʼt know senior sister Shirleyʼs past or her origin, but she could tell that she was already in love with a man!
