Forced to Sell Myself to the Female Lead After Killing the Male Lead

"Who exactly are you?! Why can you use the Shadow of Silence Power?!"

Meeting Yumo's crimson eyes, Mengxi continued her stern interrogation.

As for that,

Yumo remained silent.

After accepting the fact that she'd already been thoroughly seen, Yumo simply gave up. Since the embarrassment was already unavoidable, she temporarily tossed away her sense of shame and just allowed herself to remain pinned beneath the other girl, quietly staring back at Mengxi.

You've already seen everything anyway. I'm a girl now, what can you possibly do to me?

Don't tell me you're going to start rubbing me?

Hmph~

At the same time, Miss Yumo couldn't help but complain inwardly with some displeasure.

What kind of question even is that? Why can I use the Shadow of Silence Power?

Heh.

You're asking me? I want to ask you the same thing, little Mengxi!

You're the Child of Destiny! The Saintess chosen by the Goddess! Why can you use the Shadow of Silence Power, huh?!

And besides...

Why...

Why aren't you afraid of me at all?!

Looking at Mengxi's face, filled with killing intent and completely devoid of fear, Yumo frowned in slight frustration.

No matter what,

I'm supposed to be the final boss that brings disaster upon this world, right?

You're making me lose face here!

Heroine, if this were some other boss, you'd have already been killed. If it were a lustful boss, or one of those bosses from certain adult stories, with how recklessly you're acting, you'd probably have been turned into a toy and thoroughly ruined by now.

It's only because you met a softhearted boss like me that you're still able to make such a fuss.

But seriously,

Why are you so bold?

Hm?

Could it be because I'm suppressing my power?

Enmmm...

Yumo fell into thought.

After pondering for a while, the black-haired girl suddenly revealed an expression of realization and nodded slightly.

Fine, that's probably it. She probably thinks I'm only around fifth-tier strength, so she's acting this recklessly.

Thinking that, Yumo sighed and shook her head.

'Heroine, you're still too inexperienced. There are plenty of people who pretend to be weak while hiding overwhelming strength. You can't make judgments so casually. Otherwise, sooner or later, you're going to suffer for it~'

Forget it.

I don't care why you suddenly woke up anymore.

I'll just teach you a little lesson so you'll remember it in the future~

And let you understand...

Miss Yumo isn't someone you can just pin down whenever you want!

Need some discipline, are we?

You're on my turf, you know!

Thinking of this, Yumo smiled faintly, revealing a meaningful smile. Her ruby eyes were full of amusement and entirely devoid of fear, despite the hand blade at her throat being only inches away.

Watching the rich changes in Yumo's expression, Mengxi couldn't help but frown in confusion.

"What are you smiling about?!"

Faced with the question, Yumo, who had been silent for so long, tilted her head playfully.

"That? Because I thought of something happy?"

Hearing that, and seeing the black-haired girl's cheeky smile, Mengxi frowned. The hand blade wrapped in silver holy aura and a trace amount of divine power almost touched Yumo's neck.

"I'm not joking with you! Who exactly are you?!"

"Your benefactor, of course~ The one who saved you before."

"My benefactor? At Garos Fortress... it was really you?"

Mengxi still found it hard to believe.

She knew very clearly how much Abyss Demons hated the holy aura inside her body—or rather, her divine power.

This girl before her clearly controlled the Shadow of Silence Power.

Then why?

Why had she saved her?

However,

Before Mengxi could understand it, Yumo's leisurely voice drifted into her ears.

"That's right, I saved you. You're still recovering in my house, you know? Tell me, little knight, is this really how you treat your benefactor?"

The melodious voice, as pleasant as the song of a lark, entered Mengxi's ears, causing her purple eyes to shrink.

Because at that moment, she suddenly discovered something shocking.

Even under the suppression of her holy magic, the seemingly fifth-tier girl before her had actually raised her right hand!

Th-This...

What's going on?!

Why can she move?!

In panic, Mengxi increased the pressure of the hand pressing against Yumo's chest and further increased the output of holy aura!

(Yumo: Hey! You brat! Stop squeezing! At this rate they'll really become flat!)

However,

It was useless.

Aside from Yumo's expression becoming somewhat strange, her right hand showed no signs of stopping.

In fact, it suddenly accelerated and directly grabbed Mengxi's left hand, the one covered in divine power.

The next moment—

Crack~

Under Mengxi's astonished gaze, the divine power coating her hand shattered instantly.

Then it slowly transformed into tiny specks of white light and dissipated into the air.

"H-How?!"

Sensing something was wrong, Mengxi tried to pull her hand back.

But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't move it. Yumo's slender fingers were like iron clamps, firmly controlling her hand.

Mengxi attempted to stand up, only to discover in shock that her lower body had already been trapped by the black-haired girl's pair of smooth, snow-white legs.

She couldn't move at all.

For the first time, surprise and panic appeared on Mengxi's cold little face.

"Y-You!"

"Hehe~"

Seeing the cute and flustered expression on the silver-haired girl, Yumo grinned mischievously.

"So then, little sister? Shouldn't you apologize properly now? If you do, I'll let you go~" 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"Y-You!"

Just as Mengxi was left speechless, unable to think of a response—

The tightly shut bedroom door suddenly burst open!

The next moment,

A gray-haired girl drenched from head to toe, wrapped in a bath towel and still covered with soap bubbles, rushed into Yumo's room.

Without needing to think, one could tell who it was.

Liyu.

After sensing that hateful divine power and hearing strange noises coming from Mother's room, the worried girl had rushed upstairs in panic.

Well,

Strictly speaking, Liyu wasn't actually worried about Yumo's safety.

Unlike her foolish older sister, Liyu understood Yumo's power quite well. She knew that even though the Child of Destiny possessed divine power, someone merely at the middle fifth-tier could never hurt Mother.

She rushed up mainly to see if she could seize the opportunity—or perhaps find an excuse—to eliminate the heroine...

And besides,

The thought of Mother staying in the same room with the Child of Destiny all this time made her very unhappy.

She just wanted to stick herself in between them.

However,

After rushing into the room and seeing the two intertwined white bodies tangled together, the words Liyu wanted to say became lodged in her throat.

The girl froze completely.

Even the light in her emerald eyes vanished instantly.

"W-What are you two doing?!!!"

Liyu shouted with a flushed face.

Compared to Liyu—

The little white wolf by her feet, completely wrapped in foam and resembling a furry ball, let out a fierce growl upon seeing the scene.

Although temporarily stuck in idiot mode, Limo could still sense the danger emanating from Mengxi.

To protect Mother, the little white wolf didn't hesitate.

After letting out an "Awoooo!", the puffed-up little wolf charged aggressively toward Mengxi!

Despite her current appearance, the terrifying power of a Demon King still resided within that tiny body.

If she collided with Mengxi, the Child of Destiny would probably explode on the spot.

Therefore,

Seeing Limo pounce, Yumo sighed helplessly.

She suddenly raised her left hand.

Just before the little wolf hit Mengxi, she mercilessly grabbed the back of Limo's neck.

"Limo, stop messing around!"

"Meowu~"

Hearing the scolding in Mother's voice, the little white wolf lowered her head pitifully.

Seeing that the girl was still obedient, Yumo sighed in relief and turned back toward the silver-haired girl on top of her.

However,

Before she could continue the previous conversation, the black-haired girl frowned.

Because she suddenly noticed that Mengxi's eyes had become somewhat unfocused.

Her entire body seemed to sway weakly.

"L-Little sister?"

The next instant—

Under Yumo's startled cry, Mengxi's consciousness seemed to leave her body. The silver holy aura surrounding her suddenly collapsed, and her entire body went limp.

She simply collapsed forward onto Yumo's two soft little buns and began breathing steadily.

??!!

Eh??

For a moment, Miss Yumo, who had been planning to continue acting cool, playing the role of the great final boss and disciplining the heroine—

Was completely dumbfounded.

"Ah... what? W-What's going on this time?!"
