Chapter 43 : When the Sun Rises

Ophelia believed that the most painful thing in the world was scratching an itch through a boot.
Whenever a small pebble got into her boot, she would always be tickled by the sudden itch, forcing her to take off her boot and remove it.

If someone were to tickle the sole of her foot, she would surely die!

“Compared to getting your balls crushed, where does scratching an itch through a boot rank?”

She was now witnessing all of this up close.

“…!!…!!…!!”

Gavin felt the world spin, followed by an indescribable pain. He gritted his teeth, shattering one, but an irrepressible whimper still escaped.

Ophelia swore that in her past life (if she had one), she had never heard such a strong scream. It was so intense that she had to cover her ears to avoid any strange stimulation to her brain.

She quickly ran to Evelyna’s side. Evelyna was half-kneeling on the ground, conserving her strength. Her mood was probably very complicated as well.

“Shirley… what’s wrong with her?”

She slightly opened her eyes, looking at the two whose positions of attack and defense had been reversed.

Just a moment ago, she thought it was all over. There were monsters in front and wolves behind, and Ophelia was a powerless support. Unexpectedly, Shirley suddenly sent Gavin flying with astonishing momentum and staged such a bloody scene.

“Shirley, she’s a very gentle person, and also very vigilant. But after meeting that man, everything changed.” She gritted her teeth, looking at the man with hatred.

“Liel, do you have a girl you like?”

“A gi-girl? I, I probably have a boyfriend…” Ophelia couldn’t help but blush. In this world, lesbianism was a very common thing. After all, you could have children using magic.

“Hehe, a girl in love… I really like Shirley, so please take care of Shirley for me.”

“We, we came from that small village, initially just to earn some money and open a shop,” Evelyna’s voice was intermittent, but she still forced herself to continue. “But later, after becoming adventurers, we thought, let’s earn a little more, a little more, it would be best to open our own shop in the imperial capital.”

“Wait, why are you making a face like you’re about to die?” Ophelia blinked.

“Because, you don’t know any healing magic, do you? The amount of bleeding is unexpectedly large. That guy really wanted to kill me with one sword strike.”

“Hehe… actually…” Ophelia mysteriously loosened the tie on her chest, then pulled out a bottle of translucent magic potion from her bosom. “Actually, I secretly made some healing potions! This is a magic potion, a strengthening potion…”

“Ah, but I can’t give you these potions. I’m planning to sell them for money and embark on a journey to find my boyfriend!”

“…Liel…” Evelyna’s voice was low.

“Hehe~ you can praise me as much as you want… I’m a woman like the Saintess~”

Ophelia proudly lifted her head, the cross on her chest seeming to shimmer.

“Liel is a big dummy! Why didn’t you bring them out earlier! You made me say such embarrassing things…” Evelyna snatched the potions with a huff.

“Eh… eh?” Ophelia puffed out her cheeks with a wronged expression.

Compared to the heartwarming little theater of the two, the other side was a living hell.

“You… I… save…”

His trembling voice couldn’t even form a complete sentence. It was truly a sight for sore eyes, and a tearjerker for those who heard.

Pain.

His mind was filled with nothing else.

“Save you? Sure, but you have to accept your punishment first…”

“I don’t want to kill people either, let alone kill someone like you.”

Shirley neurotically wiped her hands.

“You really, can accept any punishment?”

Gavin nodded repeatedly.

As long as he could be freed from this pain, he would do anything.

[Heal]!

Green light sprinkled on his body. The feeling of pain gradually became numb and finally left him.

He fearfully touched that area. The pain from just now was like a dream. It was still there, safe and sound.

Gavin gritted his teeth. He couldn’t understand what kind of opportunity Shirley had obtained.

He carefully recalled the time he met Shirley. The first thing he did to Shirley was to control her with [Hypnosis].

Just because she said, “Hey, stay away from us!”

Gavin felt his self-esteem was greatly hit. He was determined to teach them a lesson.

He didn’t think he had done anything wrong. Rather, it shouldn’t have been discovered.

He put on a smiling face and crawled to Shirley’s feet:

“Shirley, forgive me, forgive me, okay?”

A hint of hesitation flashed across Shirley’s face.

Seeing a chance, he began his tearful performance.

“I, I just liked you too much…”

“Hahahaha, sorry, sorry, I heard a very funny joke…”

Shirley laughed mockingly.

[Secret Word] [In the Name of Nemesis] [In Shirley’s Name]

A huge amount of magic was condensing at the tip of the staff.

“Eek!” Gavin lay on the ground, retreating repeatedly. He felt a fishy smell coming from his pants.

He looked down in confusion, only to find that it was already wet with urine.

“Waaah… first time seeing someone pee their pants from fear…”

Ophelia, watching the excitement from a distance, cupped her hands into the shape of a telescope and placed them in front of her eyes.

Seeing this, the mockery in Shirley’s eyes deepened.

[Oh, Demon God who rules over fate] [Reconstruct]!

A five-part chant, and a strange magic that no one had ever heard the name of.

A shockwave of magic swept over Gavin. The expected pain did not come.

Could it be that she was bluffing?

That’s right, this damn b*tch’s magic would also run out!

It was time to counterattack!

“Hahahahaha…”

His laughter stopped halfway.

The voice, it was strange.

It wasn’t like a deep male voice, but a more delicate feeling.

There was a sense of incongruity.

He timidly moved his hand to his body.

Fortunately… no breasts.

He moved it down.

Nothing, except for the crack behind his butt, there was nothing.

Nothing… at all?

Not male, not female?

Only then did he notice Shirley’s smile, which was almost suffocating from holding it in.

He tremblingly picked up the scattered sword fragments on the ground. Reflected there was clearly a female face.

“Ah!!!!”

He threw the sword fragments away and kept touching his body.

But nothing grew out.

“Taking away your junk, making you a tool for others to vent, this is your punishment, little Gavin.”

“This face will surely be liked by those perverted uncles.”

Shirley smiled, her face like a demon in his eyes.

“No, don’t… don’t!!”

Gavin showed a terrified expression.

“I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong!”

“You’re not wrong, you just know you’re going to die.”

“Ah, how about this!”

Shirley clapped her hands excitedly, raising her staff again.

[Secret Word] [In the Name of Nemesis] [Forget]!

A heavy drowsiness enveloped Gavin’s body.

“When the sun rises, forget about yesterday. From now on, you are a boy without a penis.”

A maid suddenly appeared in front of her.

“Oh dear, it’s quite embarrassing to say, but I seem to be a bit lost. My master always says I have no sense of direction. I was in too much of a hurry and forgot to ask… does anyone know which way is southeast?”

The pink-haired girl touched her hair and smiled shyly.

“Huh?”

Shirley let out a dumbfounded sound.
