Chapter 431: A New Servant

As Charles arrived in front of Melody, he glanced at her status and felt something was off about it.

'I think I heard the last part of her name somewhere else.' He tried to recall but felt no clue about it.

'Did my memory get messed up a little?' He indeed lost a few of his memory clouds when his soul got shattered, and he felt confused inside.

After thinking for a moment, he shook his head, shifted her attention towards the beautiful young woman, and cast [Curse of the Overlord] spell.

A moment later, a streak of invisible black flame came out of his body, moved towards Melody like a bullet, and directly invaded her head.

Then, it moved further towards the Dark Space that connected her main consciousness to her soul and attached over there!

In the meantime, Melody felt a strange sense of awe and respect towards the second prince.

Her heart pounded faster all of a sudden as she looked into the young prince's eyes.

No, she felt that this man wasn't the second prince she knew for the past few months but someone else!

Instead of a spoiled brat who lusted over women, she saw a brave, handsome man for the first time.

'What am I thinking?! He is too young and only knows how to play with beauties.' Even though she tried to dismiss that thought, a strange emotion appeared in her heart. Not only that, but she actually felt a desire to obtain him!

At that moment, her gaze met Charles's one!

Melody felt that his gaze could see through all her secrets!

As Charles arrived closer, Melody closed her mouth and became dumbstruck. If not for the strange invisible power enveloping her whole body, she would've fallen on the floor right now.

Charles also noticed her strange behavior and got startled a little.

'Hmm? Love at first sight? No, but this looks something similar to that. So, this curse spell influence's one's weak emotion and enslaves them using that emotion, huh.' He nodded inwardly, moved his face closer towards Melody's face, and retracted his wisdom power.

On the other hand, Melody stumbled all of a sudden and fell backward. Alas, her heart and mind got entirely captivated by the young prince's gaze.

'What is this feeling?!' Her face turned red in fluster.

But before she could fall, Charles took a step forward, moved his hand around her waist, and grabbed her body.

"Are you alright?" He asked in a concerning voice and then released her from his grasp.

In the meantime, Melody became flustered, took two steps backward, and stared at him in shock and surprise.

'W-What is happening to my body?! Why am I admiring the second prince?' She got startled deeply.

But at that moment, some strange power entered her mind and altered her thinking.

'No, I always have high respect towards His Highness. Although I felt uncomfortable whenever he ordered me to have s*x with him, I respected his character as a whole. But why did I think ill of him earlier?' Positive and negative thoughts got mixed up and soon etched in the deepest part of her consciousness.

'I hate some of His Highness's orders, but I also respected him from the bottom of my heart. He is my true King!'

Finally, she gained some courage and asked in a stutter.

"Y-Your H-Highness? D-Did you use any strange spell on me?" Her voice contained a trace of confusion.

On the other hand, Charles shook his head and asked.

"No. It should be my question. What happened to you? Why did you try to put me under an illusion?"

Just as Melody was about to answer, she suddenly forgot what to say.

In the meantime, Charles read her memories and learned the truth.

Whenever she wasn't in the mood to have sex with the second prince, she would usually do these kinds of tricks to satisfy the prince's desire.

'So, that's the reason, huh.' He nodded his head in understanding.

Then, he shifted his gaze towards her ears and asked.

"You are a catkin, right?"

Upon hearing those words, a shock appeared on Melody's face, followed by disbelief.

Without any hesitation, she backed away in a hurry and tried to run away but froze.

'Wait... Why am I running away? I indeed hide this secret, but it's to protect myself, right?' She opened her mouth but closed it after some hesitation.

Meanwhile, Charles observed her facial expression and then waved his hand.

"Don't worry. I won't punish my subjects just because they hide their secrets from me. As long as you tell me about your origin, I'll let this off." He paused for a moment, suddenly released his invisible strings, completely bound her body, and then continued in a cold tone.

"But if you dare to hide anything from me, I won't show any mercy on you."

In the meantime, Melody trembled uncontrollably for some odd reasons and responded without even thinking.

"I-I know nothing much about the catkins, Your Highness. I was brought to this world as a slave from another plane and later sold to a Noble House in Magewind City. Like me, more than thousands of non-humans working there as slaves and servants in the Nobles' houses. Two centuries ago, I managed to escape with a large group of druids and came to this land as a fugitive. Currently, I'm living under Duke Michael's protection. N-No, I'm living under His Highness's mercy!" Saying so, she burst into tears and knelt on the ground.

"P-Please don't kill me." She begged.

'Wow! My enslaving spell is too good. With just a few words, she completely became my servant.' In truth, he was a little scared of using this curse magic spell often. He doesn't want his whole followers to be a bunch of enslaved beings.

After a short pause, he squatted down a little, grabbed her shoulder, and then asked.

"Why are you hiding your identity?" Concern and curiosity could be seen in his tone.

On the other hand, Melody shook his head and answered.

"Light Church will send an army of Light Knights to hunt me down in the name of Inquisition, Your Highness. They are already doing that to all the Demon Sorcerers."

'Inquisition, huh. I wonder if there are some special Templar Knights to do that job.' He furrowed his brows and then asked the following question.

"Which God are you serving?"

Upon hearing his words, Melody showed a confused look and once again shook her head.

"I'm a non-believer, Your Highness. The only things I rely on are my nature spell models and skills."

'She is a non-believer? But why does she have the 'Blessed One' title then?' He pondered for a second and then further asked more about herself. The more he asked questions, the more she became attached to him. By the time he ended the conversation, her eyes had become reverent and pious.

At that moment, she felt that she was born to serve this handsome prince for the rest of her life!

She even felt glad to meet such a kind-hearted ruler!

"Good. I'll be taking you as my personal attendant from now on. You can go back to your room and take some rest. Also, tell the butler not to disturb me for the next few hours."

Saying so, Charles sent her out of his bedroom.

Then, he closed the door from inside, locked it, and then moved towards the nearby wardrobe.

After that, he opened it, took out a black hooded robe from inside, and wore it.

Following that, he took out Julius's long sword from the nearby table and strapped it to his waist.

'Man, I really miss my space ring.' He muttered inwardly. Even though he could put his thing in his Fire Domain, most of them might get destroyed due to the harsh environment.

Shaking his head, he enveloped his body into a crimson flame, turned into an elemental being, and then entered his Inner World.

A moment later, he opened his eyes in the Astral Plane, conjured a ball of rebirth flame, and covered his soul form. Then, he controlled the rebirth flame and flew towards the sky. He first passed through the ceiling, entered the second floor, and continued to move upward.
