Kije had also stood up, looking at the fiery red bead in Sora's hand with astonishment. She had never seen it before, but she inexplicably felt an unusually familiar sensation.
"Don't move!"
Without explaining to the woman, Sora commanded with a smile.
Although she didn't know what Sora was going to do, Kije immediately stood still. Everything she had belonged to this man, and his orders were her absolute will.
Under the woman's astonished gaze, Sora pressed the bead against Kije's forehead.
"Mmm…"
The moment the bead touched her, Kije immediately felt an astonishing heat sweeping through her entire body. Especially at the point of contact on her forehead, there was a severe, burning pain.
Her face was pale, and despite the extreme pain, the woman bit her lip and persevered.
Sora nodded in satisfaction at Kije's performance. If she wanted to gain power, she had to bear the corresponding pain.
At this time, Sora wouldn't tease her. He increased the force on his hand, pressing the fiery red bead forcefully into Kije's forehead.
And then, in the next moment, an incredible scene appeared before the eyes of everyone in the courtyard!
Under Sora's pressure, the fiery red bead gradually melted into Kije's forehead until it finally disappeared completely!
Thump! Thump!!
As if she could hear the sound of her heart beating violently, two flames ignited in her originally light purple eyes. Feeling the surging, fiery power constantly emerging within her body, Kije looked incredibly astonished.
"Ah!!!"
However, the power seemed to be too strong. In the next moment, a painful scream erupted, and a flame-like, bright red aura burst out from Kije's body.
In an instant, everyone in the courtyard felt an astonishing heat constantly assaulting them!
Taking a step back, although this heat had no effect on him, little Logue in his arms couldn't withstand it. The three guards also wanted to escape and hide, but the cold blades of the guard girls and their playful smiles made them afraid to move even a bit, fearing that if they moved, the other party would find an excuse to finish them off.
"Ha… ha…"
This fiery aura came and went quickly, lasting only a few breaths, but even so, Kije felt as if centuries had passed. It was as if all her strength had been drained, and she bent over, panting heavily.
"How do you feel, Kije? The power of the Super Teigu - Purgatory's Invitation!"
Appearing in front of the woman again in a flash, Sora asked with a smile.
That's right, what Sora had fused into Kije's body was Bols's original Teigu, Purgatory's Invitation!
These years of traveling the continent with Esdeath hadn't been wasted. In addition to searching for talented girls, Sora had also been constantly collecting all secret techniques, spells, and information related to Teigu. Combining this with the advanced knowledge from his original world, Sora was now fully capable of creating a weapon even more powerful than a Teigu - a Super Teigu!
The fiery red bead from before was exactly what Sora had modified from the Teigu Purgatory's Invitation. It could be fused into the human body, giving the human body the ability to control flames and magma. Its power was definitely stronger than the original Teigu!
"This is the Teigu that that guy used to use? From now on, I will use my own power to protect myself and Logue!"
Straightening up, clenching her hands, feeling the power within her body, Kije smiled wickedly.
At this time, she was already very different from the virtuous housewife she once was.
Her original tea-colored hair and light purple eyes had turned into fiery red, and a small, burning flame mark had appeared on her forehead at some point, making this originally plain woman become extraordinarily enchanting!
"Hey… aren't you going to ask why Bols's Teigu is in my hands?"
Looking at this woman whose appearance and temperament had changed drastically, Sora asked with a smile.
"Those are meaningless now. I only know that everything I have now was given to me by Master…"
Standing on tiptoe, the woman took the initiative to kiss him.
Well, Sora naturally wouldn't refuse such a good thing. Holding little Logue in one arm and embracing the woman's waist with the other, he indulged in tasting the delicious sweetness.
Sighing inwardly, it seemed that another woman had been tainted by his darkness…
But why was he so excited and satisfied!
Seeing the two of them kissing without regard for others, the three male animals instinctively wanted to glance over, but they were glared at by the cold eyes of the guard girls, and they immediately withdrew their gazes in fear and became honest, no longer daring to look around.
Although the scene was a bit tempting, their lives were more important!
"Well, as a reward for you, those three animals are yours!"
Finally ending the long kiss, Sora released Kije, stepped aside, and said at the same time.
Receiving Sora's signal, the guard girls simultaneously sheathed their swords and returned to Sora's side, casting a pitying look at the three clueless fools.
Feeling quite tired from standing for so long, Sora took out a chair from the space of the King's Sword, sat down with the still unconscious little Logue in his arms. A guard girl stood behind Sora, gently massaging his shoulders with her fair and slender hands.
Looking forward to the show with a look of anticipation, Sora was really curious about how Kije would deal with these three guys!
"Thank you, Master!"
Adding a touch to her cherry-red lips, Kije walked towards the three terrified security guards with a bloodthirsty and cruel smile.
She was originally so kind, only wanting to live a peaceful life with her husband and daughter. But why are there so many disgusting people in this world, insisting on devouring every last bit of her kindness!
"W-what do you want?"
"Woman, don't you dare mess around. We are Lord Ogre's subordinates. If you dare do anything to us, the Empire will never let you get away with it!"
Watching Kije walk towards them step by step, the three security guards felt a chill in their hearts. The woman who was as weak as an ant in their eyes now gave them an incomparably terrifying feeling!
Knowing that there was that powerful man who came out of nowhere, they were absolutely unable to resist. The two security guards who were still standing immediately threatened her. As for the guy whose arms had been blown off by Sora, he had already lost too much blood and was extremely pale, and he didn't even have the strength to speak.
The three men's words seemed to have some effect on Kije, who stopped and cast a questioning look towards Sora.
Although the woman couldn't wait to burn these bastards who almost plunged her and her daughter into eternal doom to ashes, she didn't want to cause trouble for her master.
"Don't worry about it. As long as I'm not dead, my women can do whatever they want!"
Full of incomparable confidence and domineering, although Sora's voice was not loud, it clearly reached the ears of everyone present.
The three security guards' faces were snow-white, while Kije and the guard girls' eyes lit up as they looked at the man with an evil smile, and strange ripples arose in their hearts.
"Don't! Please let us go! We were only acting under orders."
"Yes, yes, big sister, we have no old grudges or recent hatreds. Just let us go this once, and we will definitely not come looking for trouble again!"
"I have an eighty-year-old mother above me and a three-year-old child below me. If you really kill me, they will be bullied and even starve to death on the streets. Can you really bear to do that?!"
…
Faced with the threat to their lives, the three grown men completely abandoned their so-called dignity and integrity, and even came up with all sorts of ridiculous and shameless reasons, hoping that Kije would be merciful and spare their lives.
If they could, they would have turned around and fled long ago. But to their horror, no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't move at all, as if a mountain was pressing down on them!
Watching the woman approaching them step by step, the three men's expressions were filled with nothing but fear and despair.
"If it were the old me, I might have really forgiven you…"
Walking up to the three men, Kije stopped, smoothed her fiery red hair, and said with a charming smile on her face.
Hearing Kije's words, the three men thought they were saved and immediately looked delighted.
However, before they could say any words of gratitude, Kije's next words plunged them into the abyss of despair—
"But, unfortunately, I am no longer the me I used to be!"
Not wanting to waste any more time with these three guys, Kije curled her lips into a cold arc and directly activated the ability she gained from fusing with the Super Teigu, Purgatory's Invitation.
Under the horrified gazes of the three security guards, the ground they were standing on instantly turned into fiery red, scalding lava!
"Ah!!! Ah!!!"
Screams, incomparably tragic and painful screams!
However, no one would sympathize with them, just as they had never sympathized with the people they had harmed to death countless times before!
With endless pain and regret, the three men continued to sink, completely swallowed by the lava, and disappeared from this world…
