NovelEnglishChapter One Hundred and Thirty I woke up feeling disoriented. His words kept replaying in my mind: "I am supposed to kill you; that was the plan, yet you still live." I should have known that was the plan. Without me, the Encounter would never take place, and the Empresses would never fulfill their 'life's purpose'-to kill the Demon Overlord: him.
Yet, somehow, I still hoped; I still believed that the man I knew was in there somewhere. I was wrong. I couldn't waste any more time; each minute—each second-spent doing nothing counted. I couldn't let this happen; I had to do something and fast.

I went up the stairs to his weapons room and was surprised to find it open; the Nexus Amulet was still there. The only difference was that the windows were shut-perhaps to keepfrom tossing the jewel out, as I had before. Daemon didn't seem to mindbeing here. He didn't seeas a threat.
I looked through the weapons; they were all good, but I needed something small and easy to hide. I spotted a weapon similar to a dagger, but it was slender, with a narrow, sharp pointed tip. A smile curved on my lips. This was just it. I hid it away in my clothes, returning to the room.

From what I can tell, you letwatch just to scare me-to make sure I saw how 'evil' you are. Well, message received. You did a perfect job. Considercompletely and utterly terrified of you." "To demons, this is normal. Just the sway you consfood to satisfy your hunger, we need blood to quench the thirst." "It's definitely not the sthing; we don't have to feed at the expense of another person's life!" "I don't take enough to kill them." "When you bit her, she seemed to... like it." "Yes, when the pain passes, the pleasure sets in... almost as close as the feeling of having sex." For sreason, my face reddened. A memory I didn't want to think about resurfaced. I remembered what it felt like... Having him so close to me, his touch... the kisses and his powerful thrusts, fillingup, but then I locked away all those thoughts.
I had been stupid; I was a young girl in love, and I made bad decisions. Now I have the power to correct it. I would go through with my plan, and I would kill him before he ever got the chance to do that to me.
I always knew you were different. From the very first day I met you, you were so... daring and fearless. You had the looks and grace of a royal or a highborn, I almost couldn't believe you were a soldier and I was right to doubt that.
