The Author's POV

Chapter 849

There was something about her voice that made it hard for those who were listening to it to keep their heads straight.

It was as if a fog suddenly appeared within their minds, making it hard for them to think or even move properly.

Thankfully, Ava and Hein had signed a contract with Angelica beforehand and were thus only slightly affected.

The same couldn't be said for Smallsnake, who found himself sinking in this cloudy state, unable to move at all.

"Would you stop it with your stupid tricks?"

It was only after Angelica intervened that he was able to snap out of whatever state he was in, and the moment he snapped out of it, cold sweat ran down his back.

'That… That was dangerous… I guess I can now understand why everyone reacted like that...'

This wasn't the first time that he had come into contact with the Patriarch of the Lust Clan, but before, he had always been with Jezebeth and thus never experienced such a sensation from her.

He had always been confused as to why, whenever she appeared, those around her would glare at her while some demons by her side would cock their heads from side to side like buffoons.

Only now did he understand.

"Oh, my… Is that how you speak to your mother?"

There was a look of sadness on the Princess's face as she looked at Angelica.

If not for the fact that he had seen a couple of her antics back when he was with Jezebeth, Smallsnake would've fallen for her acting.

Still, he was utterly shocked by the sudden revelation regarding Angelica's mother.

'She's the daughter of a Princess ranked entity… one of the seven heads at that?'

Smallsnake wasn't too sure how to react at the moment. The sudden piece of news left him utterly dumbfounded, and he couldn't help but cast a few glances at the mother-daughter pair.

'And just when I thought I saw everything…'

Well, they did both look beautiful. So there was a bit of resemblance...

"I exerted a lot of my force to have you come to me, and the moment that you see me, you start shouting at me…? I feel rather sad, Angelica."

Lowering her head, she looked pitiful, and many of the demons around her started to show signs of concern.

Even Smallsnake felt a slight impulse, but he pinched his arms and forced himself out of such a state.

'Keep focus… Keep fucus…'

They were at a disadvantage at the moment. Be it in power or numbers. Even if they wanted to, they'd be unable to escape, and it made Smallsnake wonder just what Angelica was planning.

He had a few means of his own to get out of the situation if it went for the worst, but he chose to keep them under wraps and let everything play out in front of him.

"Are you still in the mood to play around?"

Once again, Angelica's words were merciless and cut right at her mother's words. The Princess didn't seem offended by her actions and smiled even more seductively.
