As she was finally awakened from despair, Julia instinctively moved to keep Legion alive. When she entered the system into the skill window, her most recent skill immediately came to her mind.

She had never used it in real life, so she wasn’t that sure of how well it would go and what the effective range would actually be. However, she didn’t have the time to think about it right now.

Julia executed the said skill straight away.

[▷Resistance Transition Lv.1

Expand the range of the resistance magic for a certain period of time. Consumes 50% of the remaining HP. SP 30]

At the same time, a transparent and luminous veil escaped from her body before it began to expand. It eventually stopped growing after it had completely enveloped Legion. Although he was a Sword Master with an extremely developed five senses, he seemed to be unaware of the existence of this very veil perhaps due to the fact that he had been extremely nervous.

Nevertheless, Julia’s current power was also useless in front of such a powerful physical power. Before long, the vibration on the ground grew louder and louder until the tremors began to become even so severe that she could no longer stand properly.

“What kind of a spectacle is this? I just looked at where the thing that had been supposed to decorate the bedroom was running so hard to and she was simply hanging out in the front yard.”

A low, eerie voice eventually pierced their eardrums.

Under the red night sky, Bael had appeared with his set of huge wings. Right behind him, she could see the shadows of some high-ranking demons flapping their wings as well.

“Demon King, how are you here…?”

“Thing? Are you really calling Julia; a thing, now?”

Legion’s greatsword was quivering with blue light while vibrating loudly. And against him was the high-purity red magic that gathered around Bael instead.

[▷Resistance Transition Lv.1

Time limit: 4 minutes 47 seconds.]

The remaining time of the skill appeared right at the top of her field of vision. She could at least last for the next 5 minutes or so, but this was just not enough at all.

Besides, the shield’s range was only a few steps around, so she had to stay close to him in order to protect Legion and she was absolutely sure to be separated from him right away once a battle were to break out.

‘What to do? What should I do……’

She looked at the demons who were sitting right behind Bael with such ferocious eyes. Barbatos, Bottis and the other demons whom she had only known of their faces while there were no middle-class demons who could actually mediate the present situation.

Besides, in the episode that had just been created, the role given to her was none other than being Bael’s mediation. It was clear that Legion’s life or death depended on how she had persuaded him. Therefore, there was only one way to choose.

She then shut her eyes tightly.

‘I’m sorry, but don’t forgive me.’

Julia slowly moved forward. One step, then two. Legion, who was now out of the range of the resistance transition, suddenly stumbled before falling to his knee and eventually collapsed. As expected, Bael was already using his power.

“I’m sorry, Demon King. I thought that Bero was getting a little frustrated, so I wanted to play with it for a while. But a small accident had suddenly happened to which I came out this far.”

Perhaps Bael or the other demons had felt something was wrong that the skill was eventually terminated on the way as well. When her stamina, which was not very high in the first place, dropped by half, she immediately felt dizzy enough to feel like vomiting.

“I thought that you had allowed me to leave the Demon King’s bedroom… Plus, you didn’t really say anything last night, did you?”

Even though the tremors of the earth had stopped, the world still seemed to be shaking to and fro. Julia, who had her foot caught from a small stone, lost her balance and fell into Bael’s arms. She could straight away feel that his body stiffened up for a moment.

“Please forgive me. I’m terribly sorry. I was wrong.”

Legion’s piercing gaze could be clearly felt behind her own back instead.

In order to appear natural, Julia mixed her voice with as much aegyo as possible and smiled broadly. Bael hated seeing her smile, but she just couldn’t help it. First and foremost, she had to send Legion back safely.

Bael’s expression hardened as he looked downwards at Julia’s rather mischievous smile. She already felt guilty inside, but she still wanted to look as plausible as it was now. Julia then buried herself even deeper into Bael’s arms. His sharply cleaved muscles eventually clasped heatedly over her thin negligee.

At that moment, a sneering voice loomed over Julia’s head.

“You look just like a female cat in heat. If you wanted to mate that much, you could have simply told me in advance.”

Bael’s hand then rested on top of Julia’s slender shoulder. His grip on her was stronger and tougher than usual. The imprint that had just been above her heart was currently scattering a faint red light. It was evidence that Bael already felt excited through the contact.

‘Anyway, this much is fine. Just by returning to the castle with the Demon King like this……’

As she was relieved of fear, her vision had suddenly gotten distorted once again. Julia could only gasp for breath before resting her head upon Bael’s chest.

The side effects of the imprint appeared immediately. A tingling sensation bolted down her spine and weighed all over her body. Her lower belly tightened and her deeper insides throbbed with such heat as well.

It was a semi-intentional situation, but when she actually did it, she became a little terrified. She was afraid that she would show her bad side in front of all these many eyes.

“Ung, ah!”

Before that, Julia, who was just about to fall, had been caught with a strong force and entrapped in Bael’s arms once more. Bael’s abs, which were accidentally brushed against her as she fell, tightened in response. Feeling astonished, she reflexively tried to remove her hand before she could feel the gaze behind her back and stopped immediately.
