Chapter 23

“Chapter 23: Good Doggies”

To Lynn, a woman like Ivyst was basically a terminally ill patient wrapped up in her own diseases.

Curing her seemed unlikely, but at least there were ways to alleviate her condition a bit.

So at the end of the day, it came back to that initial thought.

One needed to use strong medicine—like, a mega dose.

The only way to trigger a change in her storyline was to show her some fresh experiences she had never encountered before.

Had anyone ever dared to say “I want you” in front of her? Absolutely not.

Everyone who saw her regarded her as a demon and a calamity, even her father and siblings treated her coldly.

Aside from that, Ivyst was left with only subordinates who worshipped her.

These folks would practically worship her as if she were a goddess, so how could they ever dare utter a disrespectful word?

Thus, what happened tonight was enough to send an unprecedented shockwave, shattering Ivyst’s previously gloomy worldview into pieces.

She would come to realize that, surprisingly, there were people in this world who found her attractive.

Some even fantasized about her.

Not to mention, Lynn was currently under hypnosis.

In this state, certain dark thoughts that had been buried deep within him would be magnified into oblivion.

On this point, Ivyst should have been mentally prepared long ago.

From her perspective, whatever happened here would be known only to her.

So, at the end of the day, Lynn was just saying something that fit the narrative.

Even in such a dangerous situation earlier, she hadn’t killed him; she definitely wouldn’t now.

In hindsight, he had just scored free 12 system points—total win!

Lynn thought to himself.

Meanwhile, after hearing Lynn’s outrageous remark, Ivyst fell silent once more.

Unexpectedly, this time she didn’t show any murderous intent or express anger.

Maybe it was a hint of guilt from earlier when she had hurt Lynn, or maybe for other reasons.

In any case, she felt that her thoughts were quite delicate at that moment.

“You’re the first one to speak to me like that,” she looked at Lynn, a cold smile appearing, “Should I say you’re bold, or should I say you’re unaware of your own mortality?”

Lynn chose not to respond.

After a moment of silence, Ivyst turned away.

In the moonlight, she saw her elegant silhouette reflected in the glass window.

“But… it’s not too bothersome, which is strange.” Ivyst murmured.

Staring at her own reflection, the face that had caused her so much shame and hatred, Ivyst found herself strangely compelled.

Suddenly, she wanted to smile at the reflection in the mirror.

Not a smirk, not a taunt.

Just a simple, friendly smile.

Yet as soon as that thought emerged, her partially lifted corners of her mouth fell back down.

Ivyst suddenly recalled her nominal elder sister, the first princess Cyrilina of the Saint Roland Empire.

Cyrilina always wore a sympathetic expression like that of a saint, displaying a patient smile to anyone and anything.

She always hated such pretentious behavior.

“I’ve really lost it.” She shook her head, “Who would have thought I would be bothered by this guy’s nonsense for so long? It’s ridiculous.”

With that, Ivyst raised her hand, gently sweeping across the glass window.

“Crack!”

With a sharp sound, a web of cracks instantly spread across the entire window.

The reflection that was initially there vanished without a trace.

Afterward, Ivyst’s expression returned to being indifferent.

The energy of the Eye of the Mind seal in her hand was about to dissipate, indicating that today’s hypnosis was nearing its end.

To use it again, she would have to wait for it to recharge.

This cooldown period was roughly a day.

Which meant Ivyst could only hypnotize Lynn once a day.

But in any case, Lynn could now be considered completely under her command.

No matter how unwilling he was, as long as the hypnosis issue wasn’t resolved, he would remain useful to her.

Of course, she understood the concept of giving a reward after a beating.

She wouldn’t just treat Lynn like a pawn.

Because aside from his intellect, he was also quite an interesting guy, which could make her daily life a lot less dull.

Although she had many questions to ask, considering the cooldown time, Ivyst had to hold back her curiosity.

So she raised her hand again, once more revealing the Eye of the Mind seal before Lynn.

“After the hypnosis ends, you will forget everything that just happened.”

No, that’s totally impossible to forget.

Lynn silently retorted in his mind.

At the same time, the power of Liars’ Devourer was dispelled.

The next second, his eyes cleared, and he stood there in shock. “W-What did you do to me?!”

Lynn’s acting skills were in full swing as he stared at his tattered clothes, displaying an expression of stunned disbelief.

Surprisingly, Ivyst seemed to have returned to her cool demeanor, as if nothing had just happened.

She truly was a born actress.

Lynn thought to himself.

Too bad, the tables had turned, and now he was the one with the upper hand.

Just as he was lost in these thoughts, he suddenly heard Ivyst speaking again.

“It’s nothing, just hypnotized you for a bit. Thanks to you, I saw some interesting things.”

“What did you see?”

Lynn struggled to maintain a serious expression.

Ivyst raised an eyebrow, “Don’t you remember? What a shame.”

“Just a moment ago, someone suddenly knelt on the ground like a lustful dog, ripping their clothes while begging, saying ‘Her Highness the Princess, I really like you.’ How shameless!”

“But I learned for the first time that you actually like me this much—hehe.”

Ivyst lightly covered her mouth, flashing a teasing smile.

Lynn was sweating bullets.

No way, was this woman just turning it into a show for herself?

It was her that fell apart earlier because of Cyrilina, made a mess of his clothes, and now she dared to throw it back at him? The craziest part was he only complimented her on her looks, and somehow it got twisted into something else, making him seem like a simp! Lynn felt he was on the brink of losing it.

This was the first time he discovered this princess actually had such a narcissistic side.

It was just too self-absorbed.

But the more she was like this, the more he had to maintain a perfect facade.

If she realized he hadn’t really been hypnotized, the consequences were unthinkable.

Seeing Lynn looking dizzy and lowering his head, Ivyst thought he was trying to recall what had happened during hypnosis, feeling a sense of victory washing over her.

“If something like this happens again, I’ll cut off that thing of yours.”

“…Understood, Your Highness.”

When in Rome, do as the Romans do.

But Lynn secretly vowed that one day he would make her eat her own words.

He clenched his fists.

But just then, Lynn suddenly felt something cold wrap around his neck.

Turns out Ivyst had pulled out that collar again, positioning it around his neck.

Lynn instinctively wanted to resist, but Ivyst leaned in first.

A subtle floral scent wafted over, making him feel dizzy.

The distance between them was narrowed, and Ivyst’s gaze remained cool and calm as it lingered on the loosely fastened collar.

Her cool, delicate fingers brushed against his neck, sending shivers down his spine.

“Don’t move.”

Just those words made Lynn stop all resisting movements.

Not from fear.

It was just that men and women shouldn’t be so casual, and moreover, they weren’t even on that level, what right did he have to shove her around?

“D-Don’t do this, I promised to join you and pledge my loyalty, isn’t that enough?”

Lynn said with a frown.

At this point, he had no choice but to temporarily compromise.

But Ivyst didn’t answer him.

“Click!”

After fastening the collar, she displayed a satisfied expression.

Lynn felt it tightening and wanted to yank it off.

But before he could make a move, he saw that collar which had been around his neck suddenly transformed into a red light that vanished into his skin, disappearing completely.

Amid the warmth, Lynn suddenly realized a thorny blood-colored tattoo had appeared on his chest, he had no idea when.

This was no ordinary collar; it was an extraordinary item.

Though normally unseen, it could allow Ivyst to locate him at critical moments and prevent him from fleeing!

Lynn inwardly cursed.

“This is the second collar I’ve personally fastened.” Looking at the mark on his chest, Ivyst’s eyes revealed a hint of nostalgia, “It’s been a full sixteen years since the last one.”

Lynn’s competitive nature got the best of him, and he raised his head, “Who was the first one?”

“A puppy I had when I was six years old.”

“What happened to it?”

Lynn suddenly had a bad feeling.

As expected, a lovely smile appeared on Ivyst’s face: “On my eighth birthday, it bit me, so I choked it to death.”

“For disobedient doggies, punishment is a must.”

The atmosphere grew icy.

Lynn immediately knelt on one knee, performing a gesture of submission to Ivyst, determination shining in his eyes as if he were pledging allegiance: “I, willing to serve the Princess until death!”

Seeing this, Ivyst patted his head.

“Good doggie.”

After transmigrating to another world, Lynn’s journey begins with being kidnapped. The culprit? The villainous princess from the original story, who plans to use him for hypnosis experiments to gain control over him. At the critical moment, Lynn has a stroke of genius—he fakes the success of her experiment and uses his acting skills to deceive her. But this is only a temporary fix, as the original story foretells a tragic ending for her and everyone around her. Thus begins Lynn’s double life: outwardly pretending to be under hypnosis, while secretly preparing to escape at any moment. However, things soon take an unexpected turn… Excerpts from “Princess’s Diary”: “The experiment succeeded!” “As the only successful subject, I’ve decided to keep him by my side.” “The curse mark on my face makes me hideous in the eyes of others, but he told me I’m beautiful.” “I’m happy because what people say under hypnosis is their true feelings.” “When we were alone, on a whim, I kissed him.” “The feeling was strange and made me lose composure, but fortunately, he won’t retain the memory after the hypnosis wears off.” “So, it’s fine to be a little bolder, right?”
