Chapter 55: I, Isabella, Will Never Fall!

With the last thread of hope shattered, and the impact of the "Psychological Shockwave" on her soul and mind, it became the final straw that overwhelmed the pampered princess Tina Leinster Newmoon.

She already deeply believed that she had fallen, added to her guilt over causing the collapse of the Western Front and driving the people of Moon Rising Mountains into exile, the previous Tina had already begun to give up on herself before Isabella arrived.

"It was the succubus that led me to fall."

Such thoughts were actually Tina Leinster’s only redemption.

However, Isabella’s arrival brought her another empty dream.

"You can redeem yourself."

A new choice lay before her.

Escape and then make amends by doing something good.

This tempting option motivated Tina to stop feeling sorry for herself.

"Maybe I am not completely lost," she redefined her soul with this new "thought," starting to plan an "escape."

However, when the hope of "escaping" fell through again, another shattered hope, shattered dreams, intensified Tina’s self-pity this time.

It was impossible to resist that succubus.

I couldn’t, Isabella couldn’t either.

No one could escape from here!

These thoughts and fears almost consumed Tina’s entire soul.

In order to prevent herself from completely breaking down, Tina "fell".

Now, she can only be "fallen"!

All of this, including herself and Isabella, is under the control of Master Lolth!

Perhaps, the idea of Isabella wanting to escape is also part of Master Lolth’s plan.

Perhaps, Master Lolth wants this knight to completely fall, just like herself!

But when did she start to fall?

Maybe it was the pretended submission and loyalty – after acting out those gestures so many times, they may have become real.

At least, Master Lolth definitely has a way to turn "false oaths" into realities, stamped in the soul.

So it seems that wanting to persuade Isabella to pretend to submit at the beginning might have been Master Lolth’s plan!

Oh, how sad!

It’s really great!

Although Tina looked at Isabella, she didn’t say anything for a while.

But as Isabella gazed at the twisted smile on the beautiful elf face in front of her, and saw the undisguised malice and a hint of pity in those gem-like clear green eyes, she sensed something was amiss with Tina.

"What have you done to me, you traitor!"

Isabella’s initial reaction was naturally that the elf captive, who had already removed the anti-magic shackles, had done something to her using magic.

"You have truly fallen, haven’t you!"

She stared coldly at Tina, but her icy gaze and sharp words no longer affected Tina.

The Elf Princess, who used to be pure and a bit weak, still looked at Isabella and softly chuckled.

"Ha ha ha," a crisp and pleasant laughter rang out in the forest at dawn, the voice still gentle and melodious, but the tone strangely sounded like a completely different person, "I have indeed fallen completely~ my body and mind belong to Master Lolth long ago – but, poor Isabella, I haven’t done anything to you!"

"You sly trickster!"

Isabella grabbed the collar of her maid outfit, her eyes icy with anger.

However, Tina wasn’t scared by her, instead, she gently placed her hand on Isabella’s wrist and continued to smile.

"Oh dear… this outfit was a gift from Master Lolth to me, and you’re wrinkling it."

She spoke softly, and magical energy surged within her.

"Dispel Spell."

From her fingertips, a huge burst of magic erupted, white light exploding like twinkling stars!

The light hit Isabella and knocked her to the ground.

Even with anti-magic shackles and the Curse of Weakness, the Grand Knight at legend level still had terrifying strength.

Tina Leinster, not only the Moon Elf Princess, but also an extremely talented Epic High Level spellcaster!

Just a simple Dispel Spell was enough to defeat Isabella now.

She looked down at the fallen Isabella, watching her disheveled opponent, with a bright smile on her face.

"You seem a bit lost… just like I used to be!"

"But it’s okay, I won’t stop you if you want to leave," Tina even threw her magic bag containing seeds and young animals to Isabella, "Miss Isabella, go ahead and try, you’ll soon realize, I haven’t done anything – it’s your own soul that brought you back here."

With that, Tina Leinster turned and walked towards the torture tower.

"I will wait for you in the torture tower – I have to go back now, if Master Lolth finds out I left without permission, who knows how I will be punished!"

Tina said with a bit of fear, only leaving Isabella a graceful figure as she walked away.

Feeling the pain in her chest from the Dispel Spell that hit her just now, Isabella looked at the magic bag in her hand and the departing Tina, gritting her teeth.

"It seems this elf has completely lost it… That succubus is truly despicable…"

Isabella no longer hated Tina now. Before seeing her like this, she even thought Tina betrayed the western line due to weakness.

But now, it seemed that this elf had been completely manipulated by that succubus!

However, Tina Leinster’s behavior and words just now did make her doubt herself a little.

Yet she refused to accept the fact that she had "fallen."

With the strong will of a knight and years of strict training, she would not easily give in.

Perhaps the elf had already gone astray, but she was certain she could escape!

Even when wearing anti-magic restraints, cursed with weakness, or having their soul tampered with, they still didn’t know what had happened to them. That’s the way it is!

"I must escape, someone needs to warn the Holy Alliance of the demon race’s plot and the dreadful intentions of this succubus!"

"I will make this succubus pay the rightful price for her pride, chaos, and wickedness!"

"I, Isabella Anno Ruiterberd Zu Schwarzwald, will not let inferior spells corrode my will, will not let the evil succubus corrupt my soul, will not bring any shame upon Ryman and the Schwarzwald family because of me!"

She picked up the magic bag filled with seeds and young creatures, and once again resolutely walked alone towards the southern mountains.
