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

”L-Lord Child of God?!”

Although overwhelmed with excitement, Welt-Sislov’s poor physical condition caused his cry to sound more like the wail of a dying ghost than a human voice.

”...”

Faced with Welt-Sislov’s exclamation, the being known as the Child of God did not reply.

After silently studying him for a few moments, the red-robed figure slowly raised a hand.

A strange power began gathering.

An eerie azure glow swirled within the figure’s palm.

The next instant,

The blood inside Welt-Sislov’s body that had been heavily corrupted by the Shadow of Silence Power suddenly responded as though answering a summons.

It continuously poured out through his wounds, floated into the air, and gradually gathered in the Child of God’s palm.

At the same time,

A Saint-Class healing magic formation appeared beneath Welt-Sislov.

An immense aura of life surged into his body, continuously repairing his shattered organs and damaged meridians.

Although only part of the damage was healed,

It was enough to pull the weakened Welt-Sislov back from death’s doorstep.

With the Child of God suppressing the Shadow of Silence Power eroding his body, Welt-Sislov’s consciousness gradually cleared.

The agonizing sensation of his body being torn apart slowly subsided as well.

When he realized that part of his strength had returned,

The Cult Leader of the Heavenly Punishment Holy Church immediately revealed an ecstatic smile before sitting upright.

I’m... I’m alright?! Hahaha! I’m alive!

After shouting excitedly in his heart,

Welt-Sislov immediately knelt smoothly before the red-robed figure and lowered his head with the utmost reverence, expressing his deepest gratitude.

He had believed he was unquestionably doomed.

Yet at the critical moment,

The Lord Child of God had actually appeared.

At that moment,

The faith within Welt-Sislov’s heart grew even stronger.

”Thank you! Thank you for saving me, Lord Child of God!”

The red-robed figure merely gave a slight nod.

Compared to accepting such meaningless gratitude,

What had happened to Welt-Sislov interested the figure far more.

”What happened?”

The voice remained mechanical,

Utterly devoid of emotion.

”I deeply apologize, Lord Child of God. This mission still ended in failure. We... we failed to kill the Child of Destiny. We even lost more than half of our elite forces. I am truly sorry... I have disappointed you...”

As he spoke,

Welt-Sislov lowered his head in overwhelming guilt.

There was only one thing he feared more than death—

Disappointing the person standing before him.

”You personally took action, and yet you still failed?”

”I apologize, Lord Child of God. That Child of Destiny possesses an extraordinarily dense amount of Divine Power. I underestimated its strength. Protected and empowered by that Divine Power, I couldn’t defeat her.”

”Even after taking the Blood Soul Pills and attempting to perish together with her, you still couldn’t win?”

”N-No!”

Welt-Sislov hurriedly shook his head.

”T-The Child of Destiny had already exhausted all her strength and collapsed! I didn’t take the pills to deal with her.”

”Hm? Then who were they for?”

Hearing that question,

The image of the black-haired girl who had ruined his grand plan and rendered all his efforts meaningless resurfaced in his mind.

Unable to suppress his fury,

Welt-Sislov clenched his ✧ NоvеIight ✧ (Original source) fists before anxiously looking up at the red-robed figure.

”My Lord! One of the Demon God’s subordinates has become a traitor! That newly born Demon King-class existence has betrayed the Demon God!”

”A traitor?”

”Yes! A traitor! The one codenamed Blood Butterfly! She’s the one who saved the Child of Destiny! And that woman is unbelievably powerful! She endured my Black Death Thorn Spear with nothing more than a minor wound! Those crimson butterflies and chains effortlessly suppressed all of my power! Lord Child of God, if you ever encounter her, you absolutely must be careful! Lord Child of Go—... hm??”

However,

Halfway through speaking,

Welt-Sislov frowned.

He suddenly realized...

The surrounding air had become noticeably colder and heavier.

A chill instinctively ran down his spine.

...?

What was happening?

The next moment,

The Child of God’s voice reached his ears again.

Compared to before,

It now carried an indescribable pressure...

Along with terrifying killing intent.

”You said...

She was injured?”

”Y-Yes... after taking my attack, only a little blood flowed from her chest. Other than that... hm? Lord Child of God...? ...?!”

Before Welt-Sislov could finish speaking,

An overwhelming pressure descended like a raging tidal wave.

Caught completely off guard,

He was struck head-on by the terrifying force.

Once again,

He violently coughed up another mouthful of blood before being blasted backward,

Smashing into a cliff hundreds of meters away.

”BOOM—!!”

A world-shaking explosion erupted.

As the terrifying aura exploded outward,

The magical beasts throughout the valley felt an unprecedented sense of impending death.

They scattered in panic,

Fleeing desperately toward the outside of the valley.

As for Welt-Sislov,

Filled with utter confusion and disbelief,

He lost consciousness under the impact.

Rolling his eyes back,

He fainted once more.

”W... Why...”

Watching Welt-Sislov collapse while coughing blood,

The icy killing intent within the Child of God’s azure eyes slowly receded beneath the hood.

Only after barely suppressing both the urge to kill Welt-Sislov and the anger boiling within,

Did the Child of God slowly raise their head toward the sky.

Mother...

So you’re protecting her...

Meanwhile,

Inside the Crown Prince’s Palace within the Imperial Capital of the Snow Night Empire,

The palace, once known for its solemn silence,

Had become unusually noisy.

”AAAAAHHHH!! You bastard! You actually dared to do that?! Are you trying to die?!”

Accompanied by a furious roar from a man and the violent eruption of pale golden magical power,

A terrifying shockwave instantly shattered every nearby window.

The maids and servants both inside and outside the palace trembled uncontrollably after being swept by the blast.

”BOOM!!”

With another deafening explosion,

The man suddenly swung his fist.

Filled with unrestrained fury,

It slammed squarely into the face of a middle-aged brown-haired man,

Sending him flying.

He crashed heavily into the wall behind him,

Leaving behind an enormous crater.

Blood immediately poured from the brown-haired man’s mouth,

Mixed with several white teeth.

Had he not possessed some cultivation,

His head probably would have been blown clean off.

Looking at the bloodstained teeth scattered across the floor,

The brown-haired man’s expression became somewhat complicated.

In the end,

He gathered his courage and suppressed his unease.

After all,

What he had done had been unavoidable.

He slowly raised his head,

Facing the blond man seated upon the bed.

That man was none other than the renowned Crown Prince of the Snow Night Empire—

Xue Tianao-Valedin.

However,

The current Xue Tianao-Valedin bore little resemblance to his usual flawless image.

Dressed in a patient’s white robes,

His body was wrapped in countless bandages.

The handsome face that had once captivated countless young women was now covered in wounds both large and small, along with extensive burn scars.

He looked utterly miserable.

Even somewhat frightening.

Combined with the stream of profanity he had just unleashed,

He no longer resembled the refined, elegant imperial prince adored by the people.

If the countless young women throughout the Empire who idolized him were to witness this scene,

Their dreams would likely shatter instantly.

Even more absurd,

Xue Tianao-Valedin was currently clutching his crotch with both hands.

His face was twisted in agony.

Locked beneath the furious gaze of the Crown Prince,

The brown-haired man—

The Royal Chief Physician, Vidoru—

Took a deep breath before speaking earnestly.

”Your Highness... it was for your own good!”

”For my own good, my ass!”

Xue Tianao-Valedin’s furious roar instantly cut him off.

While cursing,

He grabbed the bowl of scalding medicinal soup beside him and hurled it directly at Vidoru’s head.

Without showing the slightest mercy, he bellowed,

”You fucking amputated one of my balls while I was unconscious from my injuries!! Who the hell gave you the guts to do that?! Are you tired of living?!”
