"Jenn!
I knew it was you! "
Along with this exasperated voice, the surrounding dust dispersed instantly. Then, a pitch-black scythe emerged out of nowhere and slashed at Jenn.
"Tsk, what a troublesome situation."
Upon hearing the voice, Jenn grimaced. But at the next moment, he extended his arm and clenched his fist. Shortly after, a sword emanating an ice-cold aura appeared out of thin air. Jenn swung it forward and the Aquamarine Light in his hand erupted in a dazzling radiance, colliding with the giant scythe. In a loud clang, both of them took a few steps back before stabilizing their footing.
At that moment, Jenn finally had the time to size up the enemy before him.
In fact, Jenn recognized Tinidale based on the voice alone. He wasn't too surprised that the princess was able to escape from the shroud of the Ancient Bane. But even so, after witnessing her current state, Jenn couldn't help but be surprised.
It was apparent that the dark fairy princess didn't encounter any good things along the way. Even though Rhode didn't know how she escaped, it was apparent that she was in a sorry state.
The black cloak that wrapped around her was full of tattered holes, revealing her snow-white skin.
Her face was pale, and she was gasping for breath.
It was apparent that Tinidale wasn't as powerful as before. Even the undead around her were nowhere to be seen. Rhode didn't know if they were annihilated in the battle against the Ancient Bane or for some other reason.
But no matter what, at least Tinidale wasn't as overwhelming as before. And Jenn also realized this. If it weren't for the fact that the princess exhausted too much of her strength, he would have been lucky not to be sent flying given the difference in strength between them.
But now … Heh heh heh …
"I didn't expect you to discover me."
"Back in the underground cave, I vaguely smelled your stench. Back then, I thought it was just an illusion. But I still caught you the instant the teleportation fluctuation appeared!
You damn bastard!! "
Tinidale said, brandishing her scythe furiously. The huge scythe in her hand whistled through the wind and pointed straight at Jenn.
"So you chased me all the way here?"
Jenn was rather surprised to hear Tinidell's roar.
Of course, he knew that the Dark Elves were very sensitive to the fluctuations of Dark Mana, but he didn't expect Tinidale to be able to grasp the moment when he teleported and follow him here.
After all, that was a random teleportation, so it wouldn't be strange for him to be teleported anywhere. Did Tinidale have such strong magical sensing abilities?
She was not a mage, was she?
Upon hearing Jenn's question, Tinidale paused for a moment before letting out a snort.
"Of course not. Do you think you alone can make me give up on the fragment of Death's Shadow Door?
I just happened to meet you. This means that we can't escape our fate. You'd better surrender now. That way, when I chop you to death, you'll suffer less! "
… As expected.
Upon hearing Tinidale's reply, Jenn shrugged and chuckled inwardly.
As a matter of fact, there was a reason why he chose Tinidale as his prison target back then. Apart from being beautiful and adorable, there was another important reason. And that was that she was innocent enough. Or perhaps, foolish enough.
As a member of the royal family of the Dark Fairies, Tinidale was considered one of the rare beings in the underworld with a pure heart. Of course, this was an evaluation given by Jenn out of consideration for her reputation.
And if Jenn were to speak the truth, it would be that the Dark Fairy Princess was really adorably foolish.
Although she seemed to be very smart on the surface, in fact, the Princess herself was completely different from the impression she gave on the outside.
Zayen still remembered the first time he met her. This princess was dressed in a black gown, like a proud and aloof lily on the top of the mountain. That unapproachable and taciturn aura really intimidated Zayen.
Later, when Jenn plucked up the courage to strike up a conversation with her, he found out that the Princess was not a silent and self-righteous flower, but an autistic person who was not good at socializing.
Of course, at that time, Jenn did not really see Tinidale as a weakling. After all, that was the underworld. Demons did not know much about pretending to be weak.
So he was not sure if she was really like that or just playing with him. Of course, in the end, Jenn decided to test her.
To his surprise, in the face of his invitation, Her Royal Highness actually came running over … This also made Zayen completely conclude that Her Royal Highness was one of those rare existences in the underworld — a silly and adorable existence.
And naturally, there was no need to say anything else. Although she was very stupid and adorable, the status of the Dark Fairy Princess was not fake. Dark Fairies were elemental spirits, and although they were servants who served the Demons, the succession of the throne between them was very peaceful.
However, the succession of the throne between them was very peaceful, and there was no scheming or killing of the father or son like the script between the demons.
If it were the Demons, a stupid and adorable existence like Tinidale would have long been dragged away to be killed or devoured.
However, the Dark Fairies did not have such nobles, and most of the royal families provided services to the Demons according to the contract. As two races that had coexisted from ancient times until now, the relationship between the Dark Fairies and the Demons was quite good.
In order to get the support of the Dark Fairies, Jenn naturally set his sights on Tinidale. Then he and Enoya schemed to lure Tinidale over and then imprisoned her. Of course, there was no need to say more about what Jenn did after that.
Later, Jenn was waiting for success, but he did not expect to fail at the last moment, and Tinidale found a chance to escape.
To be honest, at that time, Jenn was really a little scared. He was also worried that Tinidale would lead an army of Dark Fairies to find trouble with him.
After all, although what he did was normal among the Demons, it was a different matter if something went wrong.
But to Jenn's surprise, Tinidale's army did not come after that. And according to Enoya's inquiry, it seemed that the Dark Fairies did not know what happened to their princess at all.
Although Jenn did not know why Tinidale let him go, he did not dare to provoke Tinidale since he managed to survive.
So from then on, he stayed away from the world of the Dark Fairies and had no contact with Tinidale.
The few news he occasionally heard were from other places. Of course, these news had nothing to do with him.
But now, since they were facing each other, Jenn naturally would not run away. Besides, based on the current situation, it was not certain who was the opponent.
"But then again, you still remember me. Do you really hate me that much?"
"Of course I do!"
Upon hearing Jenn's question, Tinidale was instantly enraged. She yelled, widened her eyes, and glared at Jenn.
"Didn't you do that to me?
That kind of unspeakable thing!
You actually did it to me again and again, and no matter how I begged, you were unwilling to stop. You kept pouring that dirty thing into me … "
"Oh, that's really pitiful."
Facing Tinidale's question, Jenn shrugged.
"I don't want to apologize to you. Anyway, I prefer that way.
But what about you?
After that, did you find another man to soothe your wounds with love? "
"How is that possible!"
Upon hearing Jenn's answer, Tinidale shouted.
"It's all thanks to you. After that, I developed androphobia. In the end, I only did that kind of thing with you … That was the first and last time …"
Saying that, Tinidale lowered her head with a flushed face. It seemed like she was recalling the unbearable past.
"That's really pitiful. Since then, you haven't even found another man. How did you solve it?"
"Of course I solved it myself!
And because I didn't know what to do at all, I could only keep recalling those days with you. In the end, because of that … Eh?
Why am I telling you this? "
"How would I know?"
Facing Tinidale who finally came back to her senses, Jenn spread his hands helplessly.
"I just wanted to ask about my old friend's recent situation, but I didn't expect to find out that she had become an androphobic and a perverted woman who relied on [beep] memories of being raped every day. What kind of thoughts should I have?"
"You … You … You …"
Upon hearing Jenn's answer, Tinidale's fair face turned even redder. She gritted her teeth and pointed at Jenn with a trembling finger. After stuttering for a long time, she stomped her foot abruptly.
"Just you wait!
I'll definitely teach you a lesson! "
After saying this, Tinidale burst into tears, turned around, and disappeared into the ruins in a trail of black shadows.
After she disappeared completely, Jenn let out a long sigh of relief.
"This girl is still so silly and adorable. I'm saved."
As he muttered to himself, Zayen sheathed his sword. Then, he turned his head and gestured to the two people who were watching the show not far behind him.
"Alright, the troublesome matter is over. Let's move on."
