Chapter 333: The Violence of Love
"Why, aren’t you asking me out on a date?"
"..."
Then, Frey spoke to Ruby with a tender voice while buttoning up her undone buttons.
This left Ruby in a cold sweat as she tried to back away, but when she realized that there was nowhere she could run by going backward, she turned her gaze to Frey.
What is this crazy bastard trying to do this time?
How could he confess in front of the Hero Party and academy students? Moreover, what was the meaning of his gentle attitude and touch?
"What are you up to, Frey?"
Looking at him slowly buttoning up her buttons, Ruby asked with a strange expression."What scheme are you hatching this time? What\'s with the words earlier, and what does \'dating violence\' mean?"
Frey had gone insane not long ago.
It was not the kind of corruption she had hoped for; instead, he had become more like a lunatic. He had descended into madness to such an extent that no one could deny the sheer level of insanity he displayed.
However, there was always an eerily sharp edge to his madness.
It was impossible to predict whether it was within Frey\'s calculation or if the madness exceeded its limits, making him appear more rational.
Anyway, there must be a reason for him to do such things.
So, before it was too late, she had to figure out his scheme.
Otherwise, she felt like she would be swept away by this crazy bastard’s madness again, just like before.
You’re not the only one who can use the system.
Therefore, Ruby decided to use her mind-reading skills to delve into Frey\'s emotions.
"Huh?"
However, as Ruby opened the system window, she froze, staring into space.
"W-what is it?"
"What do you mean by what is it? I told you that I love you."
Frey, gazing at Ruby affectionately, stroked her chin before leaning in.
- Chu.
And the sound of their lips meeting could be heard.
"Ub? Ebeub..."
"...!?"
Ruby, taken aback by Frey\'s sudden kiss, widened her eyes and froze in place while the students behind her were shocked.
- Smooch...
Does he… really love me?
Ruby involuntarily allowed Frey’s tongue into her mouth. Still, she was bewildered by the sudden turn of events.
"I really, really love you, Hero."
Seeing her reaction, Frey whispered while smiling at her.
- Chu, Chuuuu.
"S-Stop it."
- Smooch.
"Y-You crazy bastard!"
As Frey kissed her neck passionately and licked it slightly with his tongue, Ruby trembled and mumbled to herself.
Is he really corrupted this time?
- Smooch...
"Th-That place..."
Ruby\'s cheeks started to flush a bit.
In reality, she had never experienced such affectionate gestures from the opposite sex.
In a way, it was natural because she was completely ignorant of things like romance and innocent love, and only ever pursued pleasure.
- Thump, thump...
In the end, she was still a woman.
"St-Stop it..."
Ruby, who had been exposed to unfamiliar sensations due to Frey\'s affection, was startled and unknowingly took a step back when her chest began to tingle.
"Ms. Ruby."
However, Frey was unfazed and followed her, taking a step forward.
"Please go out with me."
As Frey gently held her hand and whispered in a low voice, a silence began to settle around them.
"...Uh, um."
Ruby was momentarily confused, unable to grasp the situation. After rolling her eyes, she closed them and began organizing the current situation.
Somehow, for some reason, this crazy bastard suddenly started liking me.
Certainly, the emotion Frey currently harbored for her, which she discerned with her mind-reading skill, was ‘love’.
She checked repeatedly, wondering whether he harbored even a subtle hint of lust towards her. Surprisingly, the emotion that was entirely absent before seemed to have surfaced.
...This is an opportunity.
As soon as she realized that, Ruby\'s mind began cooling down.
This is my last chance to truly corrupt him.
She didn’t know why this crazy bastard suddenly started liking her.
Perhaps, due to the recent madness he developed, his brain malfunctioned, making him like her. Or maybe, for some reason, the Demon God, who had been out of touch lately, had done something to influence him.
However, what’s important was that the emotion Ruby had been craving for so long had finally manifested in Frey.
I can’t miss this golden opportunity to corrupt him. Then, I will turn him into my servant and bring the end of the world.
Regardless of how a hero like Frey fell in love with her, there couldn\'t be a more perfect opportunity to corrupt him.
She had been rather anxious due to Frey’s unpredictable behavior, loss of contact with the Demon God, and the accumulating damage on her body. If she could corrupt Frey, she could bring an end to everything.
Moreover, corrupting Frey was also one of her deepest desires. Ever since she tasted Frey, Ruby had desired him almost as much as the world’s destruction.
"Alright, I agree."
After making that decision, Ruby smiled shyly and agreed to his proposal, causing the audience to freeze.
"He…ro...?"
"I-it’s a lie, right?"
"D-did something happen to her head??"
The students started muttering with astonished expressions.
"What... is this situation? Could it be a part of the Hero’s strategy?"
"There\'s a strong chance that this is a high-level mind game. Let\'s observe the situation for now."
"..."
Eurelia analyzed the situation with a stiff look, and Vener responded to her.
Even Roswyn, who was quietly jotting something down in her notebook, suddenly flinched, and her eyes turned lifeless.
In short, it was a total disaster.
"Did you all hear that, Everyone?"
Amidst the chaos, Frey held Ruby in his arms and gazed at her with a loving gaze. Then he looked around and addressed the other students.
“Now I would like to talk alone with my girlfriend. Would you mind leaving?”
"..."
At that remark, everyone looked at Frey with weirded-out expressions.
Just a few days ago, Frey almost beat Ruby to the brink of death, but now he has somehow confessed his love for her.
Furthermore, they couldn’t understand why Ruby suddenly accepted his confession with a smile.
Everything seemed strange.
"W-Well then..."
"..."
The more they pondered it, the deeper they sank into a strange feeling. People eventually ditched the idea of delving into that thought and began leaving the guest room one by one.
"We’ll go outside for now. Hero, If you feel like you’re in danger, shout immediately."
"..."
With Vener and Roswyn, who lowered her head deeply, finally leaving the guest room, only Frey and Ruby remained inside.
"Ms. Ruby."
"Hmmm..."
The moment they were left alone, Ruby crooked her head, rubbed her chin with her hand, and wore a greedy expression. As Frey stood up and approached her slowly, she responded with a content smile, gazing into his eyes.
- Smooch...
The next moment, Frey\'s tongue entered her mouth again.
- Srk...
To prevent Frey from escaping, Ruby carefully wrapped her tail around his waist. She then entwined her tongue with his, and the corners of her mouth raised in a smirk.
I’ll corrupt you like this, Frey.
If her saliva were to enter Frey\'s body entirely, and if he stayed in that state for a few minutes without vomiting like last time, Frey would finally be completely corrupted this time.
Not as a lunatic or a madman but as her complete servant.
First, I need to bring him back to his senses and then inform him of what he has done.
- Gulp...
It will be so much fun.
Ruby, who had become quite excited, mumbled to herself inwardly.
But... what was that earlier?
Suddenly, she furrowed her brow in confusion as she contemplated that.
There were clearly broken letters next to the emotion of love…’
However, at that moment...
- Chomp!!
"...Ebeub!?"
Frey, who was passionately kissing her, suddenly bit her lips with a gleam in his eyes.
- Chomp, Chomp...
"Ah, agh... I-it hurts!!"
As a result, Ruby pushed Frey away with a scream. He quietly licked the blood smeared on his own lips.
"Wh-What are you doing..."
- Slap!!!
As Ruby was about to shout at him with a glare, her head violently turned to the side, followed by the sound of a slap.
"Ah, it hurts."
Ruby, clutching her burning cheek, mumbled in disbelief.
"Why, whyyy? Why are you doing this?"
- Slap!!!
"W-wait, this is violence, right? I-it’s an attack?"
- Slap!!!
"...Euaaah?!"
Then, after being repeatedly slapped by Frey, she stopped asking questions and just started staring at Frey, dazedly holding her cheek.
"Violence, you say? This is nothing like that."
Watching her, Frey spoke with an excited smile.
"This is an act of affection, you know?"
"What?"
"I’m leaving my mark on your face. It\'s a romantic and lovely gesture."
"...?"
As Ruby blinked her eyes, not quite grasping the words she had just heard, Frey stood up from his seat and spoke.
"I currently love you the most in the world, Ms. Ruby."
"I-I know. But why..."
"Therefore, all the actions I\'m taking towards you from now on are acts of affection."
"Ah, damn it... Cough!!"
The next moment, Ruby’s head was slammed down on the desk by Frey, who grabbed her hair forcefully.
"I!!! Love!! You!! Ms. Ruby!!!"
"W-wait, just a moment. Keuheuk. Ugh."
"I love you so much!! That I want to control you! Dominate you! Destroy you!!"
"Egeuk... Ugh..."
“I want to beat you to the brink of death, make you dependent on me! I want you to be traumatized because of me, and to be terrified and think of me all the time! Ultimately, I want to make you believe that your life is nothing without me beating you!.”
"Cough..."
Frey fiercely nuzzled on her while pressing her against the desk, kneed her side, and whispered lovingly in her ear.
"All of this is because I love you."
"You crazy bastard... You\'re really insane!"
"Why are you like that? This isn\'t violence. It\'s pure affection without any malice. Look, even the system approved it, didn\'t it?"
"What... What method did you use? How could you do this without getting blocked by the system…”
“Do you need a reason to love someone? Actually, I’ve secretly liked you for a long time.”
"Keuaaaah..."
Ruby writhed in agony as Frey dug his teeth into her neck.
“I-I could defeat someone like you with just a finger…!
- Crackle...
Then she swung her finger and fired out her fearsome magic, but at that moment, the shield that appeared in front of Frey blocked her attack so easily.
- Swish...!
"Cough."
Seeing that, Frey suddenly gripped her throat and slammed her down to the floor.
"Of course, this is also an act of affection. It awakens your hidden survival instincts towards me."
"Hggh..."
"And the fact that you, who could easily defeat me with just one finger, now helplessly have your neck strangled by me is so lovely."
"Keeeugh... Ugh... This is... just pure violence..."
“What are you talking about? This is my proof of affection towards you, you know?”
As Frey said that, he drew hearts in his eyes and rubbed his cheek against Ruby\'s.
"Isn\'t the reason you\'ve been putting me through all this fucking hell also because of the twisted affection you harbor for me?"
Then, Frey muttered with a sudden cold tone.
"Now that I understand your feelings, why don\'t you understand mine? Do you dislike me? Didn’t you like me so much that you even intended to violate me that time, so now are you just going to abandon me?"
"That... Ugh..."
"I love you, I really love you, Ms. Ruby."
"..."
"Therefore, you should silently endure my affection... Huh?"
After being strangled by him for a while, Ruby eventually went limp. Quietly, Frey reached down and pulled her tail, which had been wrapped around his waist.
- Chomp!
"Kyaaahack!"
Suddenly, Frey bit the tip of her tail as he continued pressing his cheek against hers, and Ruby screamed in pain, regaining her senses.
- Chomp, Chomp...
"I-it hurts! I said it hurts!!!"
Afterward, Ruby began punching Frey with tears in her eyes as he continued to nuzzle his face into Ruby\'s cheek and chewing on the tip of her tail.
- Thud, thud...!
However, her punches were useless against the system\'s protective barrier.
"Sigh... Ms. Ruby."
After thoroughly biting and licking the tip of Ruby\'s tail, Frey was now climbing on top of her.
“I really, really love you. Can you feel my love?”
He wore a chilling smile as he raised his fist.
"You... crazy bastard..."
Terrified by Frey\'s actions, Ruby could only mutter under her breath.
.
.
.
.
.
"We need to get inside right now!"
"Hmm..."
Shortly after that…
"We can\'t even hear screams anymore! Open the door immediately!"
"The Hero is in danger!! Hurry!!!"
"Open the door!"
The members of the Hero Party surrounded the guest room door, urgently shouting at the attendant, who was looking troubled.
"I can\'t find the key to the guest room no matter how hard I look."
"Damn it!!"
Upon hearing that, Vener lost her composure and drew her sword from her waist.
"I-if you draw a sword within the palace..."
"The Hero is in danger!! Now is not the time for such concerns!"
As she pushed aside the attendant who tried to stop her and stepped forward to strike the door with her sword aura…
- Creak...
"...Huh?"
The door to the guest room slowly began to open.
"...!"
The pupils of those who had been staring blankly at the door began to shake one by one.
"Ah, are you all gathered here?"
"Kehe... ugh..."
Covered in bruises and hand marks from her face and neck to her arms and legs, Ruby was trembling as she came out of the room, embraced by Frey.
"Please wait for us in the guest room. I will escort Ms. Ruby for an audience with the Princess."
Ignoring the people who were left speechless by the terrible sight, Frey took Ruby in his arms, and at that moment…
- Sling...!
"W-what is this... What are you doing?"
Vener, trembling wildly, pointed her sword at Frey\'s throat and began to speak with a shaky voice.
"Y-You!! Even after doing all this, do you think you\'ll go unpunished... Kyack!?"
"You do know that drawing a sword in the palace is an act of treason, right?"
However, without delay, Frey disarmed Vener, took the sword from her hand, and whispered in a low voice.
"You\'re well aware that within the Hylin family, the blood of traitors flows, right?"
"..."
"If your father hadn\'t hid you, your life would\'ve been forfeit long ago."
Having said that, Frey stepped on her stiffened foot and once again grabbed Ruby\'s arm.
"Hmm?"
However, for some reason, Ruby didn’t move.
"L-let go of The Hero!"
"Y-you trash!”
"...Filthy human."
Frey turned his head because of this, noticing the male students holding her and looking at him with hostility. Upon seeing that, he smiled coldly and said.
"So, you want to die, huh?"
"..."
The students trembled and involuntarily let go of Ruby as Frey’s killing intent crashed down on them.
- Chomp.
"Ha, eut."
When Ruby moaned from the bite, Frey gently licked her earlobe, smiling the entire time.
"T-The Hero… has fallen for the wicked Frey..."
"Ms. Ruby..."
"...Grrrr."
Ruby lowered her head and quietly gritted her teeth as the students gazed at her battered condition in despair.
"Let\'s go, Ruby."
"...Yes."
However, when Frey shot her a cold glance, Ruby tightly closed her eyes before responding and started to move.
- Step, step...
Just like that, the two began to walk away, leaving behind the defeated students.
- Swoosh...!
"Huh? What...?"
Then, Frey suddenly grabbed Ruby and pulled her to the opposite side of the empty corridor, causing her to widen her eyes in surprise as she was dragged away.
"Ruby."
"What again this time...? You crazy bastard."
Ruby furrowed her brow when she was pushed against the wall. She questioned Frey as he leaned in…
- Thud...!
"Uggh...!"
Frey\'s fist struck Ruby\'s lower abdomen with full force.
"Uek, ueeeekk..."
"That’s right, good girl..."
Ruby unwittingly buried her face in Frey’s shoulder as her body folded at a 90-degree angle. Frey gently comforted her by stroking and patting her back as she drooled on his shoulder.
"W-why are you doing this?"
Frey’s fist was buried against Ruby’s stomach for a long time, causing her to spit out saliva.
Frey replied with a cold smile,
"Because I was jealous."
"What...?"
"You looked into another man\'s eyes and held their hands, didn\'t you? I was so jealous."
"Th-then, isn\'t this violence...?"
Ruby asked weakly as Frey twisted his fist left and right, causing another wave of pain to course through Ruby’s body. However, he replied while tilting his head.
"No, it\'s an act of affection.”
"What do you..."
“I’m just acting cute to let you experience a bit of the jealousy I felt. Do I have to explain each time I act cute? Aren\'t you being too indifferent?”
“You’ve truly gone crazy, this…”
Frey explained his action and turned his head with a slight pout on his mouth. Ruby, with tears in her eyes, trembled as she spoke.
"The system could easily block it at its discretion... Last time, the Sun God blocked my acts of affection, didn\'t she? But why isn\'t this bastard\'s attack being blocked?"
"I think I know the reason for that."
"Heuugh...!"
Ruby gasped when Frey slightly lifted his fist. Seeing that, Frey grinned and leaned closer to her ear.
“I\'ve been keeping a firm grip on the Demon God lately. So, wouldn\'t it be reasonable to say that she has no way to make a judgment?”
"What... did you say?"
"But, what\'s so unfair about it?"
After saying that, Frey moved his head and stared intensely into Ruby’s eyes, beginning to question coldly.
"Why don\'t you understand my love? I understand yours, so why don’t you understand mine? Do you really hate me?"
"I-I like."
"I know right? You like me too, Ruby?"
"Y-yeah. I like you too. So... Kyeheug!!"
"I love you, Ruby."
Then, as he jammed his fist into Ruby\'s stomach again, Frey whispered.
"Let\'s continue to be affectionate in the future."
I have to figure out why this bastard suddenly started liking me. As soon as possible.
Ruby forced a smile as she stared at him and murmured to herself, breaking into a cold sweat.
If it\'s a brain abnormality due to mental derangement, there\'s no hope, but... Wait, could it be?
Then, suddenly, she opened her eyes wide.
Did he use that skill on himself?
She shook her head frantically.
B-but... that\'s impossible.
"Ruby?"
If he buys the skill that is at the top of the skill list, even if he has accumulated a lot of points, it will immediately go into the negatives…
"Let\'s go now."
"Ugh."
Then, led by Frey\'s rough hands, she began to walk down the corridors of the Imperial Palace in her miserable appearance.
"M-Ms. Ruby...!"
"Hero..."
Darn it, darn it!
She cursed in her mind because of the gazes filled with pity from the Hero Party, students, and the palace maids…
"Hauuut!?"
Suddenly, Ruby convulsed and rolled her eyes. She collapsed to the ground, clutching her chest.
"Y-you..."
"It\'s a prank that couples always do in public places. Why are you like this?"
Frey had momentarily triggered the stellar mana embedded in her heart.
Although it was brief, the tingling pain that spread throughout her body was enough to paralyze her.
"Let\'s go, Ruby."
"...Ut, Ugeut. eehiiikk."
Thus, after making Ruby follow behind him, Frey regularly triggered the stellar mana.
"Wait a moment, Frey. Th-this is... hauh-uh..."
"We\'re almost there. It’s ahead of us now."
She trudged along behind Frey, half out of her mind, feeling her whole body go limp under the pitying stares and sympathetic glances.
"I\'ll kill him... I\'ll definitely, definitely kill him..."
Ruby gnashed her teeth and muttered under her breath.
"We\'ve arrived, Ruby."
"Where? Arrived where... Haeub."
Without warning, Frey’s tongue forcefully invaded her mouth, and she could do nothing but helplessly accept the intrusion.
- Smooch, smooch...
Thus, the sound of mingling tongues began to be heard for a while.
"Ummmm..."
"Puhat."
In the moment when Ruby twitched from Frey\'s persistent and skillful teasing, he pulled his tongue away from her mouth, letting a long strand of saliva form.
"..."
Then, silence followed.
"...Ah."
Ruby, who had come to her senses and looked around in the prolonged and eerie silence. Seeing where they were, she soon let out a helpless gasp.
"..."
Clana, who was sitting on the throne, and Kania, Irina, and Serena standing beside her, stared at her with incredulous expressions.
"I\'ve decided to date Ruby from today on!"
As Frey cheerfully shouted, the eyes of these girls, which had been changing colors for five seconds, now were directed towards Ruby simultaneously.
"...”
- Kugugugugu...
Hearing Frey’s word, Clana began to coldly glare at Ruby as her Sovereign Aura flared around wildly.
Even in the silence, Ruby could infer the unspoken word of the ruler, who would do anything to kill her from now on.
"What kind of curse is this...?"
Kania emitted a dark energy from her entire body, her eyes glowing black.
Somehow, Ruby could feel the power of a transcendent being emanating faintly from her.
"If she got caught by Frey... that fucking bitch must have done it, right?"
Irina’s cold gaze as she glared at Ruby starkly contrasted with the unbearable heat that scorched her surroundings.
For some reason, Ruby could feel some illusive aura from her.
"Don’t worry, I\'ll look for a solution. By the way..."
Finally, Serena muttered coldly and looked at Ruby with a bone-chilling expression.
"...Is this a declaration of war against us?"
As she spoke and caressed her lower abdomen, an incredibly menacing force flowed from her, matching the aura of the other girls.
"So, tomorrow, I\'ll subjugate the Church with Ruby!"
Unfazed by the situation, Frey shouted brightly while petting Ruby’s hair.
"Fu...ck..."
"Gu."
Behind Ruby, who tightly closed her eyes, Gugu, who had been making a foolish expression, was flying away somewhere.
.
.
.
.
.
Meanwhile, at the Academy basement.
"Keuugh..."
"P-Please spare me..."
"Ah... seriously."
Ferloche, who had been sipping wine with white-glowing eyes in the basement for a break from interrogating her attackers, twisted one eyebrow when receiving the message from Gugu.
“It’s nothing, just a slut who doesn\'t even know her place."
"P-Please spare me... Gahhhh..."
"...Talking about sandbags."
Eventually, Ferloche stood up from her seat.
"I\'m feeling vexed now, so let\'s destroy the /genesisforsaken
