Stop Hypnotizing Me, Antagonist Princess!

She was troubled by that guy's matter.

Ever since she left the interrogation room and returned, every time she lay on the bed trying to sleep, his image of lying in her arms, breathing faintly, would unconsciously surface in her mind.

Subsequently, an indescribable sense of guilt arose within her.

This feeling made her toss and turn, sleepless throughout the night.

She didn't know what was wrong with her.

Normally at times like these, her mind should have been filled with thoughts related to her brother Xiya.

It was all that guy's fault!

Had he not always said those inexplicable strange things, she wouldn't have ended up in her current predicament!

Even brother Xiya had become suspicious!

With this thought, Tiya quickly composed her emotions, lightly lifted the long hair that fell beside her ears, and forced a trace of a smile, "I'm really okay."

Seeing that Tiya still had the appearance of being unwilling to open her heart, Xiya, though agitated, couldn't show his frustration.

So, he nodded, "If there's anything, just tell me, I will always be behind you."

"Thank you, brother Xiya, I'm very happy."

However, in reality, Tiya's heart didn't stir at all.

Not only that.

Looking at the prison gates that were drawing increasingly closer, a hint of nervousness faintly took shape in Tiya's heart.

The words that guy had said yesterday were still lingering in her ears.

Brother Xiya, was he really that kind of person?

She felt somewhat bewildered and subconsciously looked up at Xiya.

He was looking at her at the same moment.

Their gazes met in midair.

Feeling brother Xiya's concerned look and his forthright expression, Tiya instantly felt much more at ease.

At the same time, a hint of emotion welled up deep inside her.

Although he was always popular with women, he never neglected her no matter the circumstance.

Indeed.

That guy must have been lying.

How could a man as proud and upright as brother Xiya, do the sneaky act of hiring assassins as that guy had claimed?

Thinking this, the unease and nervousness in Tiya's heart dissipated like smoke.

Subsequently, she subconsciously wanted to reach out, to lightly grasp Xiya's fingertips, but a sudden feeling of rejection was like a bucket of cold water poured over her head.

She had almost forgotten.

Aside from that guy, she was unable to have physical contact with any other man.

What was happening to her?

Had she subconsciously started to see brother Xiya as a substitute for that guy?

For a moment, Tiya's heart pounded rapidly, and her complexion turned somewhat ugly.

Unfortunately, Xiya wasn't aware of her inner thoughts at that moment and mistook her small gesture as an attempt to overcome the curse-induced sense of rejection and hold his hand, only to fail.

He was moved.

"It's okay, Tiya." Xiya smiled warmly, "Don't see me as some lecher; just being able to walk and talk shoulder to shoulder with you like this makes me very happy."

He magnanimously stated.

However, these words sounded even more grating to Tiya.

The actual situation surely wasn't like this.

Tiya clenched the hem of her magic robe tightly, and her steps inadvertently slowed down.

All in all.

Everything had started to go awry only after meeting that guy.

So, as long as she repaid her sense of guilt, after that she could completely break ties with him.

With this in mind, she took a deep breath and suppressed the complex and chaotic emotions in her heart.

At that moment, the elderly substitute punisher who had led the way yesterday stepped forward to meet them.

With so many high-ranking figures gathered, he dared not neglect them.

"Open the gates."

Councilman Blake ordered indifferently.

"Yes."

The elderly substitute punisher responded and slowly took out the keys.

At the same time, a sinister look appeared in his eyes.

He was looking forward to seeing what kind of expressions people, especially those close to that kid, would have when the gates were opened.

With that thought, the elderly substitute punisher quickened the motions of his hands.

Having spent many years in Punisher Prison, witnessing countless interrogation scenes, he had been steeped in the prisoners' malice and murderous intent, which twisted and radicalized his character.

At that moment, the Great Imperial Princess Hillena seemed to sense the malice emanating from him, furrowing her brows, "Were you just thinking of something unpleasant?"

The elderly substitute punisher's actions hesitated.

At the same time, Ivyst also finally noticed the anomaly.

"Is this... the common prison for thirty people?" Her expression cold, she stepped forward, and a nearly imperceptible killing intent enveloped the area, "Even if he's captured, without a clear charge, he shouldn't be locked up here."

"What have you done?!"

Even though the Underground Prison forbade extraordinary phenomena, the overwhelming and terrifying presence of Ivyst, a Sixth Rank Demigod, still pressed down in an instant.

At that time, the majority of people present found it difficult to breathe and their faces turned pale.

And that elderly substitute punisher spurted blood from his mouth and nose, collapsing to the ground.

Dammit.

Was this the monster, Imperial Princess, that had always been rumored in the Imperial Capital?

With his almost Fifth Rank strength, paired with the special nature of Punisher Prison, he couldn't withstand even a strand of her aura?!

The elderly substitute punisher's previously sinister look had completely vanished, replaced with an expression of panic.

Meanwhile, everyone finally realized that something was wrong.

Normally, prisoners locked up in a place like a prison, unable to vent their repressed energy for a long time, there should be noisy clamors everywhere.
