Stop Hypnotizing Me, Antagonist Princess!

Chapter 482: Chapter 258: The Wedding Day (15,000 Words) (Part 3)

"You’re just going to let me stand here?"

Seeing Lynn’s gaze fall upon her, a smile unexpectedly appeared on her face.

Although Lynn felt a bit surprised in his heart, he still moved over on the stone stool, and Hillena sat beside him, resting her cheek on her hand, staring blankly at the campfire.

Hillena said nothing, and Lynn did not initiate a conversation either. The two maintained this almost eerie silence until Hillena’s cool voice broke it:

"I remember when you were injured and unconscious, you kept calling a name several times."

"Hmm?" A look of surprise appeared on Lynn’s face. He had been in a coma at that time and indeed did not remember saying anything.

"That person named Ivyst must be a very perfect woman."

Hillena looked at him and said.

"On the contrary," Lynn waved his hand, "She has a bad temper, ruthless methods, and her face was once disfigured, so she always wears a mask... In short, her flaws are countless."

Upon hearing this, surprise flashed across Hillena’s eyes: "Then why do you..."

"Would you believe it if I said that if such a day comes, she would even dare to kill the Divine just so I could live?"

Hillena couldn’t help but startle, and then she gazed at him: "I believe it, because if it were me, I would also be willing to sacrifice everything for the one I love, even killing a god, so what?"

"So it sounds like you two just happened to meet first, what if it had been another woman who treated you the same way..."

"I don’t want to make such assumptions; it’s disrespectful to her." Lynn shook his head, "It’s not about who came first; it’s about knowing from the moment I met her that she was the one for me in this life."

"Everything else would just be settling."

There was an implicit meaning in his words, and Hillena wasn’t foolish. She merely forced herself to smile to hide the unease on her face: "I have a question for you."

"What question?"

Lynn looked at her warily.

Hillena took a deep breath: "If you truly had to choose, would you be willing to stay here forever or return to your original world?"

"Of course I would go back; there’s nothing worth holding onto here."

Lynn replied almost without thinking, not to mention the people and matters he cared about in the original world, the terrible living conditions here gave him no desire to stay.

After receiving Lynn’s definite answer, a hint of tension flashed in Hillena’s eyes: "Then if, I mean if, I were to choose to Forget the past and stay here forever, would you... be willing to stay with me?"

Undoubtedly, Hillena’s question caught Lynn off guard, and his expression paused instantly.

Lynn was stunned for a moment, and a bitter curve suddenly formed on the corner of his mouth.

He remained silent, but the answer was already written all over his face.

The perceptive Hillena understood this silence.

A moment later, the joyous beats from the Demon Clan’s dance seemed to infect Lynn, as he stood up and walked toward the campfire, his light black robe flaring gently in the night breeze.

"You..."

Gazing at his back, Hillena’s voice trembled slightly.

"Is there anything else?"

Lynn did not turn back but merely tilted his head slightly.

In the firelight, the defined profile of the young man appeared particularly profound in the night, giving an inexplicable sense of reassurance.

The disturbance in Hillena’s heart suddenly calmed down.

In this world with so many women, is she truly the only one for you?

This was supposed to be the last question Hillena wanted to ask.

But now, it seemed there was no need to voice it anymore, because Lynn’s answer was obvious.

A perfect, faint smile appeared on Hillena’s extraordinarily beautiful face as she gently waved at Lynn: "It’s alright, you can go."

"Oh, by the way," Lynn seemed to suddenly remember something, "Forget about what happened during the day, perhaps there’s another way to break the barrier that encloses this world."

"I thought when the time comes, you will be able to return to the original world, to be your Saint Laurent Empire Princess again."

Lynn said with a smile.

In fact, ever since arriving in Morol City, he heard the murmurs of the Prisoner of Destiny again, though not clearly, only vaguely catching some sounds.

This gave Lynn a glimpse of a turning point.

Moreover, just now, after drinking cup after cup of Divine Tree Juice wine, falling into an intoxicating state, he heard some sounds more clearly than before.

Of course, he would not tell Hillena about this.

Unaware of the details, Hillena felt a sudden pain in her heart.

She only felt that this was Lynn personally severing the bond between them.

What a... gentle bastard he is.

Watching Lynn merge into the festive scene of the dance, Hillena bit her lip lightly, determination flashing in her eyes.

If reuniting with your loved one is your wish—

Then I am willing to fulfill your desire.

Even if the price is....

...

It was clear morning.

Lynn was awakened by a dull pain, and after opening his eyes, he pressed his temples and painfully sat up.

Last night at the campfire party, he deliberately let himself indulge in fine wine, allowing himself some relaxation after a month of high tension in the Otherworld.

Yet he underestimated the potency of the Divine Tree Juice wine; delicious indeed, but with a mighty aftereffect.

After being exiled to the border city of Orn, he almost spent every day in the tavern, living a life of drunken dreams, gradually developing quite the capacity for liquor.
