Monster Lord: The Goblin Offers the Saintess to Me at the Start-Chapter 31: Heartstrike

The two Blood Servants jeered loudly, believing Reina's actions were completely futile.

Did she truly think that by dying, Sivis's life would be spared?

Conning and Flora, watching Reina's desperate struggle, enjoyed the sight of her despair. Their moods improved, and even the physical pain they were enduring seemed to lessen.

The other Blood Servants merely stood there, their vacant eyes fixed on Reina, as if reflecting the futile struggle of a fool.

Hmm?

"What's with this woman? Why isn't she reacting to our words at all?"

In the eyes of the Blood Servants, Reina's expression was resolute, as if she had made up her mind.

The moment she collided with the Blood Servants, the young maid once again used a magical artifact, unleashing a powerful gust of wind.

The air exploded like a cannonball in the sky, the recoil sending Reina flying back next to the warehouse.

"Huh? What is she doing?" Conning and Flora, having been transformed into Blood Servants, with their now rigid minds, took a while to process what had just happened.

Reina, however, wore a victorious smile on her face.

She had succeeded!

Her eyes sparkled with delight.

The young maid raised her wrist slightly, and on her once pristine skin, a blood-red scar had appeared. The scar exuded an eerie, nauseating aura.

There was no doubt—this was proof that the young maid had already been infected.

Soon, Reina would become like them, transformed into a Blood Servant, losing her sanity, and enduring excruciating, indescribable physical torment.

"What are you trying to say?" Conning and Flora were both stunned, their faces filled with confusion, unable to comprehend what was happening.

As the plague of the Blood Servants intensified, strange lights and chains began to extend into the void from Reina's body.

This sudden occurrence triggered something in Conning and Flora's minds, and their expressions changed drastically.

Reina's slave contract was linked to Sivis. If she died, Sivis would definitely sense it.

But what he would sense wasn't just her death—he would also be alerted to any abnormalities.

The contract wouldn't allow the master to fully understand the details, like what poison the slave had been affected by, but it was a technique developed by the Church. It provided strong protection against the followers of Evil Gods. When a slave was infected and turned into a Blood Servant, Sivis would be able to detect it.

He could even know which level of Bloodline or Blood Servant had done the infection!

And Sivis would understand that the appearance of such a major Bloodline crisis was far beyond what someone of his strength, still not at the Silver level, could handle.

Moreover, once Reina had been infected, there was no chance of healing her unless it was with pure Holy Light.

This meant that, as long as Sivis wasn't completely foolish, he would never return to the family.

If he came back, he wouldn't be able to save Reina and would only be walking to his own death.

In such a situation, the seemingly insurmountable dilemma Sivis had been facing instantly dissipated!

He would certainly report to the Church, informing them of the potential presence of a Bloodline crisis in the family, and he would never return to the Daister family.

Conning and Flora's carefully laid plans to capture and torture Sivis were shattered in an instant, rendering them meaningless. They knew that once Reina was infected, the mysterious figure would eventually get the item from the warehouse, and they would have completed their mission.

But for some unknown reason, Conning and Flora let out a shrill, anguished scream.

They couldn't accept this reality!

The immense pain they were enduring was only bearable because they had clung to the hope of Sivis's return, waiting to exact their revenge and vent their hatred.

If it weren't for Sivis, how could they have ended up like this?

Ultimately, the item that the mysterious figure was after was obtained by Sivis, and the destruction of the Daister family was entirely his fault. The pain they were suffering was all because of him!

Sivis...

How could you be the only one left alive?

"Reina, good! You're really good!" Conning and Flora's eyes flashed with malice as they shouted hysterically.

But they didn't rush toward her immediately.

Reina had only a single wound on her body, and the infection wasn't spreading that quickly. Instead, greyish-blue tendrils of energy rushed toward her, seeping into her body.

The young maid recalled the medical knowledge Sivis had taught her, pulling out some cloth to tightly bind her wounded wrist, slowing the spread of the Blood Servant infection.

At the same time, she continued holding the alchemical bomb, sneering as she said, "Don't worry. Before I completely lose consciousness, I still have one more thing I can do."

Reina looked back at the warehouse behind her. Her actions made Conning and Flora tremble.

It's over!

Their earlier sense of triumph had evaporated into nothingness!

Reina was just trying to scare them. She wasn't planning on detonating the bomb.

The girl knew that if she truly destroyed the item that the mysterious figure wanted, what would happen if he went mad and continued to relentlessly chase after young master Sivis? Even though Reina hated him with all her heart, she had no choice but to give up on the idea of setting off the bomb.

But looking at the two young masters, who had been so arrogant just moments ago, now utterly panicked—Reina's pale face couldn't help but break into a faint smile.

Conning and Flora, now in a complete panic, shouted loudly, "Wait, Reina, please... Please don't do this! Calm down, please! Don't do anything reckless!"

After becoming Blood Servants of the Bloodline, Conning and Flora's mental faculties had deteriorated significantly. They could only plead in extreme fear, unable to even come up with an excuse to justify themselves.

"Are you asking me with the proper attitude?" Reina weighed the alchemical bomb in her hand, her face growing even paler. What surprised her was that Conning and Flora didn't hesitate for a moment before they suddenly fell to their knees with a "thud."

"Please, please! We were wrong before, we're sorry! Spare us! Don't blow it up, please!" They had no shame, kneeling on the ground, even commanding the other Blood Servants to kneel as well.

The two of them weren't foolish enough to be beyond saving. When they saw the smile on Reina's lips, Conning and Flora seemed to understand something. Suddenly, their anger flared, and they shouted, "Wait! She's playing us! She's not going to blow up the bomb! Otherwise, the Bloodline Lord wouldn't be able to get what he wants, and he would definitely come after Sivis for revenge!"

"Reina doesn't have the guts to do it! Otherwise, why would she still be talking to us like this?!" They weren't exactly smart, but at least they understood Reina well enough to know that everything she had done was to protect Sivis. How could she possibly destroy the warehouse at this point when she had so much to lose?

Reina, seeing that her deception had been uncovered, remained calm and unhurried. Her goal had already been achieved, and she now weakly leaned against the wall.

The girl's face was as pale as paper, barely resembling a human anymore.

Against her pale skin, her emerald-green eyes shone even brighter, resembling gemstones, their brilliance only more pronounced. During the process of being transformed into a Blood Servant, she had acquired a strange beauty, one that seemed to be on the edge of death.

When Conning and Flora saw Reina close her eyes peacefully, as if preparing to fall into a tranquil, fairy-tale sleep like the Sleeping Beauty, they were filled with rage, trembling with fury.

"Why? Why is this happening? We've worked so hard for so long, planning to take Sivis's wealth, and in the end, we've gained nothing. Instead, we've been turned into Blood Servants, tortured and suffering!"

"Sivis, on the other hand, gets to leave safely, while his maid looks like she's got everything she wanted, as if she has no regrets about leaving this world!"

If Reina had been converted by the Bloodline herself, she would have only become the lowest-level Blood Servant, one without consciousness. And because of that lack of awareness, she would not feel the agony of the transformation.

"Everything good goes to you master and servant, while we're left to suffer!"

Conning and Flora could only shout hysterically in frustration.

"Reina, you... you're truly insane! You're such an idiot, do you even know that? Do you think you're anything special?"

"You're just Sivis's slave. He's nice to you, but it's just the kind of affection one gives to a toy."

"Your sacrifice means nothing. He'll forget about you in no time. Do you know that?"

"After he survives, he'll marry a noblewoman and have his own children."

"Throughout the rest of his life, he'll never speak of you again. All your efforts were completely pointless!"

Conning was momentarily stunned, watching Flora scream in rage beside him. A hint of admiration surged in his chest.

As expected, women really understand women.

In Conning's eyes, Reina's admiration for Sivis was almost blatant; she centered everything around her young master in the family. Flora's words were so cruel.

It was truly a blow to the heart.
