Becoming the Demon Lord: Taming the Demon Queen Begins

Chapter 74: Did they have to be so excessive?

When they all heard Timothy's soul-stirring question, their faces fell, and they plunged into a pit of self-doubt about their lives.

Even Felix joined in: "Timothy, what deep question did you ask, man?"

Timothy replied, "Just one question: who's hotter, you or me?"

"Heh, so that was it."

Felix immediately flashed a flattering smile: "Of course, Brother Timothy, you're the absolute hottest, easily second in the whole Sky Sanctuary."

Timothy frowned, "And who's first?"

"Uh, that would be me..."

"Boom."

The next moment, everyone saw Felix's body soar into the air and crash heavily to the ground.

"Felix got knocked flying by Brother Timothy!"

"Man, Felix is really beyond help."

"But what was that thought-provoking question Timothy asked? I wanna hear it too!"

A buzz of discussion arose among the clueless disciples.

[Mindfiend Manifestation Form Release Count (100/100)]

In no time, the conditions for releasing the Mindfiend Manifestation Form were met once.

Timothy looked at the growing crowd of disciples nearby, a slight smile on his lips.

All these people, just ripe for the taking.

Soon enough, the male disciples were wallowing in self-doubt, wishing they could hide their faces, and even the female disciples felt ashamed, afraid to show their faces to Timothy again.

[Mindfiend Manifestation Form Release Count (200/100)]

In just a short while, the Mindfiend Manifestation Form was ready to be released twice.

"Timothy's really in the mood, why not ask me too?" Just then, a melodious voice rang out, and a graceful figure flew in from the horizon.

Her golden, flowing dress danced in the wind, her elegant figure perfectly outlined by the fabric.

More importantly, her aura was so divine that it inspired reverence and affection almost instinctively.

"Holy Maiden!" The disciples of Sky Sanctuary all bowed slightly in respect.

After all, Holy Maiden Aeliana was not only highly esteemed but also the closest confidante of Goddess Sylvia.

Even if the goddess herself wouldn't admit it, these disciples knew it well.

Especially since, a few days ago at the Blooming Sanctuary festival, the Holy Maiden had clearly stated that if the three Holy Emperors had any designs against Goddess Sylvia, she would be willing to fight for Sky Sanctuary.

This showed that the bond between Holy Maiden Aeliana and Goddess Sylvia was much deeper than it appeared on the surface.

However, Timothy didn't show the same respect as everyone else.

Instead, he smiled slightly: "Holy Maiden, came to watch us show off our love again?"

"Show off our love? What are you talking about?"

The disciples were momentarily puzzled, not understanding the meaning of Timothy's words.

"Timothy, what are you talking about? I don't have a fetish for watching others show off their love."

Holy Maiden Aeliana wasn't annoyed,instead, she chuckled lightly, her eyes tenderly fixed on Timothy, unabashedly filled with a flirtatious light.

This look was so obvious that many disciples noticed.

"Could it be that Holy Maiden Aeliana..."

"No way!"

The disciples stood dumbfounded, their minds buzzing.

After all, the Holy Maiden's saintly image was deeply ingrained in their hearts,though not as aloof as the goddess, no man could easily approach her.

But now, the way Holy Maiden was behaving towards Brother Timothy was just too... flirtatious!

Could it be that even the Holy Maiden was charmed by Brother Timothy's handsomeness?

"Whoa, we're not that close, please don't look at me like that."

Facing Holy Maiden Aeliana's flirtatious gaze, Timothy stepped back, extending his hand in a gesture of distancing.

After all, if the Holy Maiden had any ulterior motives and tried to frame him, his wife's jealousy would surely not spare him the whip.

"You're so heartless, always so gentle with someone else."

Seeing Timothy's reaction, Holy Maiden Aeliana pouted slightly in a sulky yet unexpectedly cute manner.

But as Holy Maiden Aeliana looked towards Sky Sanctuary, she suddenly coughed lightly, her flirtatious gaze quickly shifting away from Timothy.

"Never mind, it looks like Sylvia is about to get mad. I better not talk to you much longer."

She hurriedly walked briskly towards the direction of Sky Sanctuary.

Upon arriving and seeing Sylvia, Holy Maiden Aeliana immediately explained her purpose.

"You mean to say, Prince Nolan of the Phoenix Kingdom plans to collude with Holy Emperor Thunderflame to seize power in Phoenix Kingdom sooner. In return, he has already started plotting against Sky Sanctuary?" Sylvia's gaze sharpened, a chill filling the grand hall.

Though Holy Emperor Thunderflame hadn't personally intervened, he was indeed manipulating things behind the scenes, trying to forge an alliance with Phoenix Kingdom.

Even though someone as arrogant as Nolan was nothing but an ant in her eyes, capable of being squashed from miles away with just a flick of her finger, the problem now was that he had the entire Phoenix Kingdom and the scheming of the three Holy Emperors behind him.

It was clearly not the right time for her to act.

"That's right, so now we need someone with just the right status to go to Phoenix Kingdom and disrupt Nolan's plans. At the very least, we need to eliminate him," Holy Maiden Aeliana responded after a moment of thought.

Sylvia asked, "And who do you have in mind?"

"Naturally, Timothy. I think he's the perfect fit."

Sylvia pondered for a moment: "Timothy? I didn't expect your judgment to be so accurate this time. Indeed, no one is more suitable than Timothy right now...

With his status, he can easily enter and exit Phoenix Kingdom, and even if he were to eliminate Nolan, it wouldn't draw too much attention.

More importantly, among his peers, only Timothy is capable of taking on Nolan."

"That's natural, I do have a good eye," Holy Maiden Aeliana said, slightly proud, lifting her head.

However, before she could enjoy her moment of pride, Sylvia's chilly voice suddenly intervened: "That's all well and good, but can you explain to me what was going on with those flirtatious looks and words you had for Timothy outside Sky Sanctuary just now?"

Just then, Timothy walked into Sky Sanctuary.

Hearing this, he was immediately taken aback.

Wait, did I just walk in at the wrong time?

The situation seemed extremely dire, and Timothy immediately thought about turning around and leaving.

But before he could turn, Holy Maiden Aeliana, looking pitiful and even with a hint of a sob in her voice, explained: "Sylvia, don't get me wrong. Although Timothy accidentally held my hand and even said he was devoted to me, that he would love only me all his life...

His heart for you hasn't changed.

Boo hoo hoo, it's all my fault, I shouldn't have accidentally captured Brother Timothy's heart.

If you're angry, punish me, but Brother Timothy did nothing wrong, please don't make it hard for him!"

"What the heck?" Timothy froze, feeling as if a million tiny horses were galloping through his mind.

What in the world is going on?

Holy Maiden Aeliana's obvious damsel-in-distress act was completely out of left field.

"Hold on! Honey, don't believe her, this is a blatant frame-up! I've never even met Holy Maiden Aeliana before!" Before Timothy could finish explaining, an icy chill filled the grand hall.

Then, uncontrollably, a cold wind enveloped him like a giant hand, dragging him before Sylvia.

As he passed by Holy Maiden Aeliana, Timothy even noticed a mischievous smile on her lips.

This woman was clearly up to no good, obviously trying to frame him!

"Honey, this is a misunderstanding," Timothy had never felt so speechless before.

Looking into Sylvia's icy, clear eyes, he could tell how terrible the consequences would be if his wife was truly angry.

"A misunderstanding? I know that. What she said was all lies," Sylvia said slowly, far beyond Timothy's expectations, as they locked eyes.

Timothy was taken aback, his mind swirling with confusion. "So, honey, why did you drag me over here exactly?"

"Hmph, consider yourself lucky." Sylvia huffed softly, and suddenly, her lips, soft as water, pressed against Timothy's.

The sweet touch and scent caught Timothy off guard for a moment, but his brain quickly caught up.

When it came to kissing, he was never tired!

He could switch it up and kiss all day and night!

"Honey, you're not quite in control here, let me handle it." Timothy gently wrapped his arms around Sylvia's waist, tilting her body at just the right angle.

"You...

I just wanted to prove something to her, don't go overboard."

Sylvia's cheeks flushed like the last light of sunset over rippling water, a shimmering, captivating blush.

"Don't worry, leave it to me.

It's just Holy Maiden Aeliana, after all. You just wanted her to know that you're the only one for me, right?" Timothy smiled, unhesitatingly leaning in for another kiss.

"Mmm~"

...

After a long while, they finally slowly parted.

Timothy, looking into Sylvia's radiant eyes, teased, "Honey, did you eat honey today? Your lips are so sweet."

"Not at all..."

"Oh, I remember now, your lips are always this sweet."

"Really?"

"Really."

Sylvia suddenly said, "That said, I thought you tasted of honey too."

"No, what I ate today was..." Timothy paused.

"Is that so? Maybe I was mistaken, let me try again."

"Huh?"

"..."

...

After another lengthy interval, looking into Sylvia's eyes, full of tender affection, Timothy coughed twice, "Darling, you're being quite forward today, I wish you were always like this."

"Hmph! After I take the initiative, you expect me to let you go find other women?"

"That's impossible, the whole world could be against me, but you're my priority.

Now when I look at other women, I feel like a monkey, no desire, not even worth a second glance."

"Smooth talker, but no real action..."

"I would, but it's not exactly kid-friendly, is it?"

"..."

The sounds of playful banter continued to fill the grand hall, leaving Holy Maiden Aeliana standing foolishly in place, her nose tingling with the sting of unshed tears.

This time, she wasn't tied to a tree with a bra stuffed in her mouth like before.

But what was the difference?

In such an intense scene, even if she wanted to leave, she couldn't move!

Did they have to be so excessive?

She had originally planned to sow some discord, but instead of being affected, the couple had only intensified their affection!

Is this okay?

No, it's not!

This was a blatant threat to all the single folks out there!

And to think, all this was done by the same Goddess Sylvia who once wrote "The Uselessness of Spiritual Partners," leading to the widespread Single Women's Alliance across the world.

Oh, the injustice!

At that moment, Holy Maiden Aeliana felt like crying without tears, suddenly realizing that she was the fool in her own play.
