Title: Chapter 68 The Maiden’s Transformation

“Ann?”

Ewan Campbell’s mind momentarily failed to process the sight of the composed young woman sitting on him.

‘Why was she here?’

‘Hadn’t she already left?’

No, this was not the time to ponder such questions.

Ann, at this very moment, hardly seemed composed.

“Young Master—”

Ann’s delicate cheeks were flushed, and she pressed Ewan down firmly. The excitement in her eyes surged like molten lava, threatening to overflow at any moment.

“Why have you been avoiding me?”

“I…”

Ewan licked his dry lips, looking at Ann.

‘Are you kidding? How could I not avoid you?’

‘If I didn’t, you’d see me on a date with other girls and then wreak havoc, wouldn’t you?’

“Wh-what do you mean, avoiding you? I have no idea what you’re talking about, Ann.”

Ewan lied with a straight face. “I merely came out to buy some things, and it was too late to return to the academy, so I decided to stay at an inn. I haven’t been in contact with any women all day today.”

“Liar—”

“Absolutely no lies! If I’m lying, then I’ll… I’ll… I’ll never shake off the title of a scoundrel in this life!”

“Heh, is that so?”

Ann’s eyes narrowed slightly as she chuckled softly. “Then who were those two women I saw during the day?”

“D-during the day?”

Cold sweat immediately poured down him like a waterfall.

“What women? I don’t know!”

“Young Master, surely you didn’t think…”

Ann arched her back like a cat, leaning close to Ewan’s ear. Her voice was soft and gentle as she spoke. “…that I wouldn’t see through such a clumsy disguise?”

Ann’s soft words echoed in Ewan’s ears, striking him like a thunderbolt across the sky.

‘Clumsy?’

‘You call that clumsy?’

‘Hundreds of people in the entire academy didn’t notice the disguise, yet you saw through it instantly.’

‘Who exactly has the problem here?!’

Ewan’s vision momentarily darkened.

‘It’s over.’

Ann had truly discovered it long ago.

‘All hope is lost!’

“Young Master, going on dates with other women behind my back, you truly are naughty.”

Ann moved even closer, and Ewan could already feel her soft, delicate body gradually pressing against his chest.

However, he had no time to appreciate this exquisite sensation.

Ewan felt his body instinctively begin to tremble.

‘What should I do?’

‘Fight or flee?’

The dagger was right at hand. Judging by Ann’s unusual behavior just now, this weapon, personally forged by Teacher Mera, should be immune to divine blessings. At such close range, if he launched a sudden attack, Ann would certainly have no time to react.

Yet.

How could he possibly draw his blade against Ann?

‘Should I still flee?’

But Ann had already entangled him; escaping wouldn’t be so easy.

If he didn’t escape, given Ann’s temperament, discovering he had contact with other women might genuinely lead her to break his limbs and lock him away!

While Ewan was rapidly pondering his options, Ann had fully leaned into him.

Ewan’s body grew increasingly tense.

‘What would she do next?’

‘Would she knock him out directly?’

‘Or inject him with something?’

‘Or perhaps something even more aggressive, right then and there…’

“Young Master, I’ve missed you so much.”

However, none of the scenarios Ewan had imagined came to pass.

Ann simply embraced Ewan, pressing every inch of her body against his with all her might. Her nose grazed his chest, neck, and cheeks, greedily inhaling his scent.

“Young Master, I’ve missed you so much,” Ann murmured, repeating the words as if to pour out all the longing she had accumulated during their time apart.

Ewan was momentarily stunned, as Ann’s actions were truly beyond his expectations.

‘So gentle, is this really Ann?’

‘The Ann who had imprisoned him, drugged him, and even tried to break his hands and feet?’

‘Am I dreaming?’

“Young Master, you surely don’t still believe I would do something to hurt you, do you?”

Ann leaned close to his ear, exhaling a faint, sweet fragrance.

“Didn’t I tell you? I’ve changed, just as Young Master has changed.

I won’t do anything to hurt Young Master again.

So—”

Ann held him tightly. In that moment, Ewan actually detected a hint of tender plea from this usually capable, calm, elegant, and collected young woman.

“Young Master, if you have time, please come home to visit.”

Her words were soft, yet they struck him like the hardest hammer, cracking open his heart.

They gently embraced his most vulnerable spot.

Ewan stared blankly at the young woman, who rarely showed such tenderness.

‘So, Ann’s words back then weren’t a lie to trick him into returning?’

She had truly changed, no longer the yandere dominated by fervent possessiveness.

Now, she seemed more like a girl deeply in love.

Ewan’s hands, unsure where to go, finally slowly wrapped around the young woman’s slender waist, which could be encircled with one hand.

He responded softly.

“Alright.”

Ewan felt her delicate body grow even softer.

In that moment, they embraced, feeling each other’s warmth.

It was peaceful and beautiful.

However, it wasn’t long before Ewan felt a small, warm, moist object playfully tracing his chest. Simultaneously, her slender, fair hands began to grow restless.

“Wait, what are you trying to do?”

Ewan grasped Ann’s small hand, asking in alarm.

“Do what?”

Ann looked up, her excited blush deepening, like a ripe peach that seemed ready to yield juice at a touch.

She stared directly into Ewan’s eyes, her playful tongue tracing her cherry-red lips. Her voice held a unique allure: “I haven’t seen Young Master for a full two months. Surely Young Master doesn’t think I can still hold back?

I absolutely must replenish my Young Master energy in time.”

With that, Ann leaned in again, gently licking Ewan’s chest like a kitten.

“T-today isn’t suitable, is it? How about we find another time?”

After all, he had just been on a date with another girl during the day. Even if he unilaterally considered it a date, to then go to bed with another girl that same night… even the most depraved scoundrel wouldn’t do something so beastly.

“Oh, Young Master is unwilling?”

Ann’s eyes, like silken threads, were full of charm, yet she wouldn’t give in. She rose, suddenly lifting a corner of her maid outfit, which had come undone at some point.

Revealing fair skin, and…

“Even if I specially wore hollowed-out lace lingerie today, it’s still a no?”

“…A mere hollowed-out lace lingerie can sway my will?”

Ewan swallowed hard, scoffing disdainfully. “Ann, you underestimate me too much.”

“Then…”

Ann bit her lip, and with another flirtatious lift of her skirt.

“What about stockings?”

“…”

“And they’re Young Master’s favorite black stockings, too.”

“…”

****

Ewan could no longer resist, and amidst the girl’s soft laughter, he pounced.

At this moment, from the endless void, the mysterious and unfathomable River Crab God Beast descended upon this place, using its supreme divine power to obscure all information herein.
