Hero? Are You Worthy?-Chapter 822 - 550 Preparing to Target Rose Vesper ( - 1: 4000 Words)

Hoo...

Inside the palace.

Qin Chu let out a long breath.

Killing the Lord of Pleasure is something worth celebrating, but there will always be those who mourn the sacrifices of this war.

The sound of Carol’s crying unmistakably reached Qin Chu’s ears.

She is a very strong girl; she doesn’t want others to see her vulnerable side... Her personality is really similar to Wozworth, whether it’s the crazy look during battle or the boisterous but tender-hearted nature underneath.

Perhaps because Carol really resembles himself, Wozworth hoped he could protect this daughter... After all, apart from this daughter, others likely aren’t biological.

Qin Chu didn’t appear by Carol’s side at this moment; the girl is very fragile now, and if he made a move now, there’s a high chance it would succeed, but that’s something only a beast would do.

Carol also needs some time to calm down, and Qin Chu is not very good at comforting people.

He just stayed in the palace, silently observing everything that was happening outside.

After crying for a long, long time, Carol finally stood up again. She intended to lift her arm to wipe away the tears at the corner of her eyes but ultimately stopped, as such an action does not conform to the standards of a Royal Member.

From this moment on, she will become a true Princess.

Before her siblings return to the Imperial City, she will have to take care of the broken Empire left by her father, suppressing conflicts that could explode at any moment.

She knows this is not an easy task, but Carol understands clearly that this is something she must do, a responsibility weighing on her shoulders.

When Carol lifted her head again, there was no sadness, no pain on her face, only resilience.

Pain will not defeat her; it will only make her stronger.

"Rest assured, with Master here, those wastes can’t make any waves." A familiar voice sounded beside her.

Carol turned around, a bit surprised, and saw that Silf, dressed in a black and white maid costume, had somehow appeared beside her.

Her cheeks were a bit crimson, wondering if Silf had seen her embarrassing appearance just now.

"Silf sister, why are you here?"

"Master asked me to come." Silf’s tone had a slight hint of displeasure since it was hard for the master to return, and Silf also wanted to spend some time with the master, but ended up being sent out by him.

"From today on, I’ll be with you, helping you manage the situation within the Imperial City. With me here, no one dares to act rashly." Silf slightly lifted her small chin, speaking with a touch of pride.

Indeed, most of the high-end forces within the Imperial City are almost gone.

The Church still exists, but both churches are now under Qin Chu’s name.

Since being purified and having the Evil God’s threads thoroughly cleansed from her body after countless treatments by Qin Chu, Silf’s power has grown stronger by the day. Though still not quite on par with Asina, she is now close to becoming a Level 90 powerhouse, a level roughly equivalent to Florence or Zimmerman before their enhancement. It’s not bold to claim she can walk sideways inside the Imperial City without trouble.

With Silf accompanying her, no one in the entire Empire dares to harm Carol.

Qin Chu promised Wozworth he would protect Carol, and he will certainly keep that promise.

Carol turned slightly, gazing at the palace behind her. It seemed she could still catch a glimpse of the figure inside through the palace’s window. A slight smile appeared on her fair face, as if the bone-chilling cold was no longer so unbearable.

But isn’t this guy a bit too much? Shouldn’t he personally come and comfort her during such a sorrowful time? A hug might lead to her downfall.

"Let’s go, Silf sister, I’ll be counting on you from now on." Carol clasped her hands behind her back, blinked at Silf, and walked towards the direction of the Imperial Palace.

Inside the palace, seeing Carol accept Silf’s presence, Qin Chu finally felt a bit at ease.

"Nadia, you should rest too, you’re very tired." Qin Chu stretched his arms vigorously and said softly.

Nadia nodded, feeling inexplicably reluctant but eventually headed towards her room.

"Helois, Iyeta, you two find a room here for Atreus." Qin Chu instructed again.

The three monster girls also turned and left. It was clear that Atreus was quite curious about the Hero’s residence, constantly glancing around with her big eyes, knowing this would be where she’d live from now on.

After being used as a tool and heartlessly abandoned by the Demon King, Atreus had realized there would no longer be any connection between her and the Demons.

Qin Chu and revenge would become her only two goals.

She knew her soul had been altered by the Pride Witch, but she did not dislike her current state.

Qin Chu also returned to his bedroom, although the Lord of Pleasure had been dealt with, there was still a ton of matters needing addressing.

The arm within the Imperial Palace, Qin Chu was temporarily not planning to devour.

The heart, torso, right leg, and many remnants of the Evil God within him, even with Extreme Absorption’s Super Order Power, there was just too much to absorb.

Moreover, Nadia woke up, yet other girls still remain unconscious within the World Tree.
