“So it was like this!”

Jack Thunder was suddenly enlightened. He waved his sword without any hesitation, trying to cut the chains.

But ‘Dragon Lady’, the most resourceful girl in his harem, stopped him.

Herra’s long hair was as glamorous as that of the rainbow dragon. Her slender dragon horns were like glamorous hairpins. The wisdom that belonged to the descendants of dragons was shining deep inside her eyes. She narrowed her eyes and stared at the rune array below Theresa and the girl for a long time, before she shook her head and said, “Rumor has it that Eric the Transfigurator is conducting very evil experiments on black magic. Judging from the materials he purchased and his reaction just now, the experiments should be at the most critical stage, and this is the core of the entire magical tower. Therefore, Miss Theresa, may I ask where you came from, what your ancestral name is, and how you were captured and brought to this place? What does it have to do with the so-called ‘black magic – ultimate body’ experiment?”

“I… I… I am from the imperium.”

Theresa stammered, “My ancestral name is ‘Han’. Theresa Han. Yes. That’s my name!”

“Han—HAM? I don’t think I’ve ever heard of such a noble family before.”

Hela paused for a moment and could not help but look at the girl again. She had to admit, “Judging from your appearance, you must’ve been blessed by all the stars in the sky for you to be so beautiful. It’s impossible for a family of ordinary farmers or even low-level warriors to have such beautiful flowers. But I know the ancestral names of all the nobles and high-level mages in the Jadeite Continent. Which imperium are you from?”

“Well, the Ives Empire.”

Theresa managed to reply, “My family lived in seclusion at the edge of the Ives Empire. It was just an ordinary family of hunters. Maybe—maybe my parents were not as simple as I thought and were really nobles in the past, but they never told me.

“I—I had a dream since I was a child. I wanted to become a great magician. So, before I reached adulthood, I left my family and wandered everywhere. After going through all kinds of hardships, I became an apprentice in magic. Suddenly, I heard that someone was recruiting apprentices. Not only did they have a good salary, but they could also receive the earnest guidance of a high-level magician. So, I went to apply. As a result, I was captured by that shameless bastard Eric and brought here.

“This—this is probably really the laboratory of ‘Black Magic • Ultimate Entities’. He told me that I was chosen as a ‘sacrifice’ and that he would sacrifice me to the Great Demon God of Night when the spell was completed. But before he had the chance to cut my throat, chaos broke out outside. He went out to fight with all the demons, and you arrived in time.

“Other than that, I don’t know anything about the Ultimate Entity, nor have I been corrupted by any black magic. Please believe me.”

Hera shook her head disapprovingly.

“I would like to believe you, but your words are full of loopholes, mysterious Miss Theresa Han.

Hela’s eyes could not bear to leave Theresa’s face, either. “Do you know what the biggest problem is? Your beauty. If you had indeed travelled far and wide as a ‘magical apprentice’, your beauty alone would have been enough to raise a riot, no matter your level of magic. Why have I never heard of such an unparalleled beauty like you?”

“I—I don’t know!”

Theresa was so anxious that her eyes were brimming with tears. “Believe me—you must believe me about this. I—I don’t want to look like this, either!”

When the girl was crying, she was already devastatingly beautiful.

When her pearl-like tears streaked across her snow-like skin, even the stars in the sky would fall for her.

Not only was Jack Thunder deeply moved by her tears and distracted, his harem was also attracted to her. Besides jealousy and wariness, he could not help but feel sorry for her. Even Hera, the dragon girl who had raised the question, felt sorry for her and blamed herself for going too far.

“Enough, Hera.”

Jack Thunder’s eyes were glued to Theresa’s body like magma. “Miss Theresa Han was captured to the Armageddon Mountain and the depths of the Fallen Forest. She was too shocked. It’s not unusual for her to miss a lot of details. She is so weak that she looks like a delicate flower that has been savaged. She is definitely not an ugly slave of black magic. Stop torturing the poor girl.”

“That’s right, that’s right. Master Hero, I was really shocked. I don’t remember many things. My—my mind is blank. Ah, I’m so scared. I’m so scared.” Theresa was shaking so hard that the iron chains were rattling. The iron chains tightened her body and accentuated her soul-stirring body.

CRACK!

Jack Thunder couldn’t hold it any longer. He cut off four chains, and the magical girl fell into his strong arms.

Shua!

Jack Thunder took off his cloak casually and covered Theresa with it. He looked at her affectionately and said in a magnetic and manly voice, “Don’t be scared, Miss Theresa. It’s all in the past now. Nobody can hurt you now that I, ‘Black Jack’, am here. I swear that I will protect you with my life as a bounty hunter and a stray knight.”

He lowered his head and stared at the girl.

Theresa Han shuddered hard. Then she vomited.

“Blargh… Blargh… I’m sorry, Lord Braveheart. I didn’t mean to vomit on you… Blargh… Thank you for saving my life. However, I really felt dizzy and couldn’t help but want to vomit. I wasn’t targeting you… Blargh…”

Every time Theresa Han looked at Jack Thunder, she would throw up. Every time she looked, she would throw up. She was about to throw up her dinner.

“It doesn’t matter.”

Jack Thunder’s face changed color, but it was soon back to normal. He put on his most charming smile again and said, “You were too shocked. It’s a normal reaction. But don’t worry. ‘Transformer’ Eric, the evil sorcerer, has been completely defeated by me.

“Excellent!”

Theresa was overjoyed and danced. “Where is he? Have you locked him up? I have something very important to ask him. He owes me something!”

“Excuse me.”

Jack Thunder touched his nose in what he thought to be a handsome way. “He is already dead. ‘Black Jack’ never leaves any survivors when he attacks.”

“What?”

As if struck by lightning, the magical girl was dumbfounded.

The magical girl, Theresa Han, continued to beg for everyone’s support.
