390 7.14 – Suicidal Sadist – War Of The Wickeds
A suicidal sadist matched Silvia LeClére quite well by how she liked to bully Riley for little to no reason. At the same time, she sought death with all her recent actions.
Dai An wasn’t either, but she had tendencies to take her experiments far enough to end up in the redemption prison, and wanted others to feel the pain she did.
Victor could at least keep Riley as a cute pet or a bed warmer to pass time, but this? The woman before his eyes was as unattractive, as one could possibly be. The way she moved her limbs looked like a scene cut straight from a horror movie, “Where do you think you are going?”
Dai An looked back at Victor, her disheveled state didn’t match the amused curve of her lips one bit, “My grandma’s birthday banquet. Can you show me the exit? I’m more fun outside than in here.”
“...” What happened to this person to change so much? How could she not be the least affected by what he did to her? She was so similar yet so different from the time he met her as Olivia, “Fun? You?”
“Yes, or less boring, however you want to see it.”
She didn’t give him an exact answer he wanted, but this would do for now, “What if you don’t meet my expectations?”
She pulled a picture of Stinky Bun from her ring space, “I will give you my son.”
“...You will reach the exit in 50 meters.” Victor only wanted to see how she would treat her injuries after her cocky stance and Riley disabling her healing abilities. To think that he already saw everything, he had to admit this: she was good at giving him one shocker after another!
.....
What he didn’t expect at all was for her to die before his eyes. No beating heart, no pulse, no life, only a fresh corpse, “Hey...Hey! Are you kidding me?!”
Did she just surpass his expectations in a very inconvenient way?!

“...” Dai An facepalmed herself mentally at the thought of her mistake when Victor brought her back to life. She dismissed Silvia’s limit and forgot for a moment that she was operating a human body, and not an undead. She could use a rejuvenation pill but decided to waste Victor’s power instead.
Her situation could be described to an astronaut that came back to Earth after being used to no gravity in space: like they knew they were on Earth, but would still unconsciously drop the things in their hands and search for the dropped item above their head.
While her body was being healed, she started to engage in a small conversation to fill in the silence, “Have you ever thought how threats and losses have an opposite effect on me? All my schemes are being counterattacked. I’m the one taking the full damage now, yet I still march into a battle against everyone headlessly. There are so many other options to make me stop, yet you repeat the one that doesn’t work. Doesn’t it make you more stupid than me?”
Questions. Questions, and more questions. Victor tried to look beyond her bland expression while coming up with an answer. She might not be speaking only about herself but all the canon fodders she was representing, “Have you ever thought it’s because we like to watch your slow death?”
“I did.” She knew he would answer something to that style, “You two keep me barely breathing for your enjoyment, and you still wonder why I want to see Riley dead?”
Not anymore. Did she want to kill Riley to defeat him? Victor thought about whether he should return her previous beauty. But after seeing that cute baby boy, he was more curious about the mother’s true face rather than Silvia’s, “Is your mission to make me fall in love with you?”
Dai An showed a stuffed expression as if she had a constipation from eating too much, “Do I look like someone who lacks a man’s love?”
“...” Rarely could the other leads or side characters from the world he visited, make him follow their scripts. He used to fall in love at first, but that feeling soon turned into nonchalance. This host who acted like Silvia LeClére was this close from turning him into her capture target like in the plot, in an unforcefully forceful way.
· · ———- · ???· ———- · ·
When outside, Dai An searched for the clock under the lamp-lit alley, “So...what is our relationship? I’m fine with anything besides lovers. I’m married, unfortunately.”
There were millions of questions, and Victor could only ask one at a time while savoring the stinging sensation in his heart, “To whom? Unfortunately?”
“Yes, unfortunately... to FOUR men,” Dai An checked out every car that passed by; she was a bit nervous to meet one of the men without Bing Shi, “Victor, try to guess the reason why I prefer this look over my previous beauty. You have to keep the answer child-friendly despite the inappropriate thoughts in your head.”
“...” Would it look like his head was filled with sex if he answered with: trying to decrease her men’s huge libidos? Victor had a bit of a hard time keeping up with her tempo, not exactly her snail walk but her mind.
Did she really think he would believe her words? Married? Four men? Why was it so hard to dismiss it as a lie after she pulled that son stunt?! There was no way in hell for him to see her as a potential love interest.
Maybe if he healed her body, Victor could see what the FOUR men saw in this awful species of a woman. But what if she wanted him to do exactly that? To make her look beautiful for a banquet, for a true female lead comeback?!
Xuan Mu, who got a huge scare when Dai An disappeared with Victor, couldn’t even sigh in relief when she returned, due to the bullshiteries she was spewing right and left. Obviously, it was because she liked her chubbiness and didn’t have time to retaliate against the face and hair yet!
If anyone wondered why Bing Shi was a big child in her childhood despite not caring about food, it was because she liked to fatten up her body and didn’t have to match her outer image to the current trends yet!
