I was raised in the simulator, and I’m really not a bad woman in Ark!

It can be considered as not destroying one's own personality.

But just as Ikaros had convinced himself, he flashed behind Theresa, raised his cane and was about to hit Theresa's round and cute little butt hard.

But all he heard was the sound of steel colliding.

Then Ikaros saw that Theresa had turned her head back at some point and looked at him playfully with her beautiful red eyes.

But to be honest, these were not the things that surprised Ekaros the most.

After all, it doesn't matter whether Theresa can react to his attack or block his attack.

Ikaros was actually mentally prepared.

Because the Theresa in this memory fragment has already possessed a certain degree of strength and excellent swordsmanship under his training and cultivation, although it is a pity that she does not have the blessing of the power of the Demon King.

However, he had no way to suppress his target and hostility, and even failed to cover up the traces and petals left by his movement in the garden.

What was strange was that Theresa couldn't react to her own attack.

Ikaros also decided that after Theresa blocked three or four times, he would gently flick Theresa's little butt with the tip of his palm to end this punishment.

But when he actually saw what Theresa used to block the cane she swung, Ikaros was completely stunned.

Because she saw a power that should not belong to Theresa today.

"Hmm, I wonder if you are satisfied with me like this, Miss Ekaros?"

The dark sword with scarlet lines spreading across it carries the power of the King of Sarkaz.

The sword body, which was like the prayers and wails of all living beings, was carried behind Theresa like a dancer, blocking the attack of the cane.

The faint scarlet and dark energy flickered in the air, responding to Thearesia's gentle smile at that moment.

It carries a maturity that is not what a girl of her age should have, as well as a sense of oppression that only a future demon king would have, and a hint of teasing and playfulness.

It was as if someone from the future was playing a joke on someone important in the past, a long-lost prank.

There was no malicious intent, but there was a hint of bad intentions that belonged to a young girl.

But he didn't know how much shock his behavior at this moment brought to Ekalos.

"...Demon King?"

Unconsciously, he murmured the name of the power that would come to Thearesia in the future.

The moment Theresa's face and the sword in her hand were reflected in Ikaros' light golden eyes, the girl in the dream was completely stunned.

What is this situation after all?

Did Theresa awaken the power of the Demon King ahead of time?

This... this is not right? The memory order is not like this, right? Or is the order of the dream messed up?

How could Theresa at this time possess the power of a demon king? !

In short, looking at Theresa, who was surrounded by the dark energy surging with scarlet color at this moment, she looked like a demon king who ruled the world.

At this moment, Ikaros, dressed in the Duke's gorgeous clothes, was in deep confusion.

Chapter 129: Grand Duke: Do you think I can’t deal with you because you’ve become a demon king?

"Yes, this is the power of the Demon King from Kazdel. I wonder if you, Miss Ikaros, are satisfied with me, who possesses such power?"

He did not hide anything, nor was he surprised when Ikaros revealed the power he had used.

Theresa turned around and gracefully lifted her skirt to salute, tilting her head cutely to acknowledge the power she possessed at the moment.

There was a hint of anticipation of being recognized and praised by Ekaros in those rosy cherry-red eyes.

Although Theresa knew that even if she possessed the power of the legendary demon king, in the eyes of the Duchess named Ikaros, she was still the slave she bought with the shadow of her past.

But as expected...

If she could really have another chance, Theresa really hoped that Ekaros would praise her, truly recognize her efforts, recognize the power she possessed, and even one day recognize her feelings for him...

"Hey, what are you thinking about, Theresa? This is just a dream after all. The Archduke Ikaros in front of you doesn't really exist. Why do you have such self-deceiving thoughts?"

However, as soon as such thoughts and emotions arose in her mind, Theresa was amused by her own somewhat crazy thoughts, and then she laughed at herself in her heart.

After all, no matter how real it is, no matter how vivid the Archduke's reaction is at this moment.

Nothing can change the fact that Theresa is currently in a dream.

Theresa's originally slightly excited heart gradually calmed down as if a bucket of cold water was poured on it, and all that was left was a sense of emptiness and helplessness in her heart after she faced the reality again, which was difficult to fill.

But think about it the other way around...

Since this is a dream, it actually means that no matter what we do, it will not have any impact on reality, right?

Well, in this case, in order to make up for the emptiness and helplessness in my heart, it is also to relieve the depression and fatigue in my daily life.

Even if the current me does something excessive to Grand Duke Ekalos in front of me in my dream, it is okay, right?

After all, this is a dream, just a dream.

There won't be any problem if I do something myself, right?

Theresa couldn't help but have some bad thoughts in her mind. After all, she was a Sarkaz who had lived for more than two hundred years, despite the mission she carried and the fate of the Sarkaz clan.

Theresa has never thought about her significant other, nor has she ever given any thought to her marriage and relationship issues.

But even if you haven't eaten pork, you have seen pigs run.

People who are not married are not necessarily inexperienced, let alone Theresa who has lived for more than two hundred years?

Therefore, it is understandable that Theresa suddenly wanted to make up for her inner regret and loneliness because of the emptiness and helplessness in her heart.

As for why I suddenly had such thoughts about the Grand Duke in my dream today...

Well, I can only say that today's Grand Duke Ikaros is indeed different in Theresa's eyes.

After all, he behaves more vividly, more like a real living person, rather than the original illusion that seems to be left over from the past.

Therefore, it was understandable that Theresa would suddenly want to do something.

"Hey, Grand Duke, let's play another game?" Now that they had decided to do something, Theresa didn't intend to hide it anymore. She looked straight at Ikaros's cherry lips, licked her dry lips, and suddenly spoke to Ikaros and made a suggestion.

This also brought Ikaros, who was in confusion, back to his senses from his dazed thoughts. Then, Theresa's aggressive gaze made his back chill, and he inexplicably felt a sense of crisis like a prey being targeted by a hunter.

If it weren't for the dignity and arrogance of the Grand Duke's status that maintained Ikaros's expression at this moment, I'm afraid Ikaros's expression would definitely be quite interesting, right?

But she still kept her cold face, frowned at Theresa, took a deep breath and asked calmly,

“Huh… Theresa, what do you mean by that? And the way you look at me is a bit too rude, isn’t it?”

In fact, at this moment, Ekalos had already noticed something wrong, and realized that there might be some changes in this dream.

But there has never been a situation similar to today's in the dreams in the past.

Therefore, Ekalos still wanted to rely on his own strength to correct today's dream and get it back on normal track.

But it was obvious that Ikaros's idea was doomed to fail.

"Haha, Miss Ikaros, Theresa's words are of course literal." Theresa smiled, but at this moment, she brought Ikaros even more pressure than her cold expression.

Then the girl clasped her hands together, squinted her eyes and smiled as Ikaros's gaze gradually dimmed, and slowly added,

"Let us play a game independent of our agreement, Archduke."

"If you can't resist my attack, how about hugging me and kissing me after the game? I think... a noble as proud as you would not refuse a little game proposed by a lowly slave like me, right?"

It's a very simple game, with equally simple rules.

But if the punishments in the game weren't so strange, then Icarus would probably think that this game could really be described as 'simple'.

But in fact, the game mentioned by Theresa did shock Ekalos to some extent at the moment.

After all, as a heavy woman, what moves has Ikaros not used? What situations has she not seen?

She had never seen anything like the work that Theresa was doing in her dream before!!!

Can't Ikaros see what this is for? !

You know, Ekalos is aware of his current level.

If he did not use the power he gained from the simulation, but simply relied on the power brought by his identity as a Grand Duke.

Then Icarus was 100% sure that he would hug Theresa for the whole night, and give her hundreds and thousands of kisses!

So no matter what, Ikaros was unwilling to agree to such a game.

But... even though Ikaros wanted to refuse, he thought of the deliberate provocation and self-deprecation in Theresa's last words.

Ikaros, who was in the state of Grand Duke, was furious.

The Grand Duke could tolerate Theresa's provocations, her occasional rough and indecent behavior, and even her occasional inappropriate intimate behavior towards him.

However, as the last de jure Grand Duke of the Manchester family, Icarus could never accept Theresa's use of the term "lowly slave" to describe herself.

After all, he was regarded by Ekaros as his spiritual sustenance and successor in the first simulation.

Whether for rational or emotional reasons, Ikaros in the state of Grand Duke could not accept Theresa's words.

This was true even though she knew Theresa in front of her might be deliberately provoking her.

Anyway, I definitely can't stand it.

Even if he chose to explode directly with Theresa in front of him, Ekalos would never tolerate such provocation from Theresa.

Therefore, after a brief hesitation in the real state, Ikaros, who was already red-hot in the Grand Duke state, made a choice without hesitation and responded to Theresa's "invitation".

"OK……"

But after accepting the girl's invitation, Ekalos changed his tone and asked Theresa with a bit of coldness and indifference,

“But if I block your attack, Theresa, what price will you have to pay? My Theresa…”

It was obvious that Ikaros in his Grand Duke state was angry.

Theresa couldn't help but be stunned when she saw this. After all, Ikaros's performance was too real. This was indeed the performance of a real Grand Duke when facing a provocation like the one she had just made.

Theresa even felt a little regretful in her heart.

Because Theresa could also see that this time she seemed to have really angered the Grand Duke.

I played it a little too long and it became popular. Is it because the Grand Duke Ekaros in the dream was too real this time...

She couldn't help but murmur a little bit of complaint in her heart, but Theresa just restrained her original emotions a little, and stopped doing unnecessary things, but prepared to fight.

After all, this was her own choice, wasn't it?

Compared to doing something wrong, what the Manchester family hates more is not daring to bear the consequences after making wrong things and choices, and regretting before taking on and bearing the consequences.

So even though he realized that he seemed to have angered the Grand Duke, who behaved very realistically in his dream.

Even though Theresa wanted to give in and apologize, she didn't dare to do so before she won.

After all, in a certain dream, Theresa had a profound experience of such an experience.

That time, the "punishment" from the Grand Duke was also particularly severe.

The next morning, when Thearesia woke up in reality, her face was flushed, her underwear and the bed were sticky, and she went to the office holding her waist.

This shows how strict the Manchester family's rules are.

Therefore, at this moment, the only thing Theresa can really do is to take responsibility for the provocation she has made.

As for the price paid...

Even though she felt the reality of the Grand Duke in this dream, Theresa still felt that she would not lose.

After all, this strength was honed over the long years in order to protect and find the precious person in front of him. If he can't even defeat the afterimage of Ikaros in the dream, then this so-called protection is probably not even as false as a mirage, right?

"I will never lose, ever..."

Therefore, Theresa spoke firmly, answering both Ekaros's question and her own heart.

"Arrogant." The irritated Ekalos looked at Theresa coldly. It was obvious that she was planning to take real action.
