Forced to Sell Myself to the Female Lead After Killing the Male Lead

In the northern territory of the Snow Night Empire, upon an unknown plain,

The reason it was called unknown was mainly because the two little fellows walking through it still had no idea what this place actually was...

At this moment,

braving the biting cold wind and violent blizzard,

a silly and adorable little white wolf was wagging her tail as she cheerfully trotted across the plain. On top of her head stood a delicate and cute gray little bird.

Without a doubt, these two were none other than the sisters Limo and Liyu.

As for why they were wandering around here when they had originally planned to go to Wind Facing City to find Miss Yumo and the others?

Of course, it was because...

they had gotten lost...

That's right.

They had gotten lost.

After all, this was an infiltration mission. In order to avoid causing any commotion, the two little fellows had been suppressing their power the entire time, holding back the release of their Shadow of Silence Power and maintaining their cute pet forms.

After doing this, in the eyes of most people, they were nothing more than harmless, adorable spirit beasts.

Unless someone was a relatively powerful Seventh-Tier existence or an Eighth-Tier powerhouse, they would be unable to see through their awesome disguise.

However, doing this also came with one problem.

They could no longer freely use their Shadow of Silence Power to sense their surroundings.

Therefore, if they wanted to quietly reach Wind Facing City, the two sisters had no choice but to rely on a map.

Naturally, Limo had no idea how to use it.

The silly little white wolf couldn't understand a map at all.

Therefore, the task of giving directions fell upon Liyu.

However,

whether it was because she couldn't understand the map, had a poor sense of direction, or some other positional reason,

under Liyu's guidance,

the two sisters had completely gotten lost.

Just like that, they had lost their way in the blizzard...

"Wuwuwu, Liyu, have you found the road yet? Aren't we lost?"

After walking for so long, the little white wolf, who had never been particularly patient to begin with, drooped her ears and tail as she spoke listlessly.

In response,

the little gray bird on her back hurriedly said,

"No, no! We're not lost! Almost there, almost there! We'll find it right away!!"

Liyu, who was staring at the map with a completely serious expression, replied to her older sister with these words for the thirteenth time.

"Right now, we just need to figure out whether we're on the Fugalo Plain, the Ikalo Plain, or the Snowfall Flower Region! Once we know that, we'll know the route!"

"Isn't that literally being lost?!!"

For once, Limo actually retorted.

Then, the little white wolf flopped weakly onto the snow.

"Liyu, I'm hungry, wuwuwu..."

Hearing this,

the little gray bird lowered the map and looked helplessly at her older sister beneath her.

"That's because, Big Sister, you didn't eat properly before we left."

"Mother wasn't there then, so I didn't have an appetite. Didn't you also barely eat anything, Liyu?"

"I, enmmm..."

Touching her stomach, which was rumbling with little gurgling sounds, the little gray bird also became somewhat depressed.

For a moment, she had no way to refute her sister's words.

After running around everywhere nearby for so many days without eating anything at all, getting hungry was honestly rather normal.

Although for Demon King-Class beings like them, going without food for a long time would not cause any real problems, under Mother's education, they had become used to eating three meals a day.

So suddenly not eating for several days really made their stomachs feel uncomfortable...

"Liyu, where can we find something to eat?"

"This..."

Liyu was momentarily speechless.

On this stupid plain, they hadn't seen any magical beasts or spirit beasts so far. Who knew if they had all gone into hibernation or something?

She wanted to rob a few lucky travelers, but she couldn't even see a human shadow.

Sigh.

What a pain...

?!!

"Hm? Big Sister?!"

However,

just as Liyu was thinking about how to get food, the little white wolf suddenly raised her head and looked into the distance!

"Liyu, t-there's the smell of food over there!!"

"Eh?!"

Before Liyu could say anything,

the excited little white wolf carried Liyu along and happily ran toward the source of the food's aroma!...

...

...

A short while later, on a small slope nearby, one wolf and one bird poked out their little heads and curiously looked down the slope.

After seeing the scene below,

little Limo's face immediately lit up with joy, and tears of disappointment flowed uncontrollably from the corner of her mouth.

At this moment,

within Limo and Liyu's field of vision,

probably because of the blizzard, a convoy of more than thirty people had set up camp there.

After deploying a defensive barrier, several maids and chefs had begun preparing food.

The fragrance of food continuously drifted outward, constantly stimulating Limo's taste buds.

"So much food! Let's go ask for some!"

"Wait, Big Sister!!"

Limo, who had just been about to begin her great robbery enterprise, was immediately stopped by Liyu.

The confused little white wolf looked at her younger sister in utter bewilderment.

"What's wrong, Liyu? Aren't you hungry?"

"Forget that for now. Didn't you notice that crest?"

"Crest?"

After letting out a puzzled sound,

Limo followed the direction Liyu was pointing and looked toward the exquisite crest outlined in gold on the carriage.

However,

after observing it for a moment, the dog tilted her head in confusion.

"What is that?"

"..."

Hearing this answer, Liyu's face instantly darkened.

Big Sister,

this knowledge...

Didn't we just learn it a few days ago?!

Could you not return everything to the teacher so quickly?!

Or were you sleepwalking during class back then?!

After inwardly retorting a few times, Liyu sighed as though resigning herself to fate.

Then,

the little gray bird said helplessly,

"That crest is the family emblem of the Valedin Family. In other words, the person sitting inside the carriage is probably a member of the royal family..."

Limo: Meowu??

—

At the same time,

tens of thousands of miles away,

on the outskirts of the military base of Prosperous Flower City, an important town south of the imperial capital of the Snow Night Empire,

as usual,

at daybreak, Patrol Captain Kedoci led dozens of garrison soldiers out beyond Prosperous Flower City to begin their patrol, while also driving away the magical beasts roaming nearby in preparation for opening the city gates an hour later.

However,

today's patrol seemed somewhat different from usual.

So... so quiet...

Kedoci, who was patrolling through the mountains, couldn't help but feel a trace of doubt.

Normally, every time they patrolled the mountains, they would encounter a large number of magical beasts and spend tremendous effort driving those beasts away.

But today?

They had been patrolling the mountains until now, yet forget magical beasts, they hadn't even seen the shadow of a single bird.

Across the entire mountain region, aside from the scraping sounds of their armor, it was so silent one could hear a pin drop...

Without realizing it,

an ominous premonition slowly emerged within Kedoci's heart.

And at that moment,

a soldier beside him let out a cry of surprise.

"Captain, over by the cliff, there seems to be someone there?"

Someone?

At this time?

Kedoci somewhat doubtfully raised his telescope and looked toward the cliff.

In the next instant,

Kedoci's eyes suddenly contracted, and a look of astonishment appeared on his face.

At this moment,

within Kedoci's vision,

a red, graceful figure stood beside the cliff.

It was a young woman.

She possessed phoenix-like eyes, slender eyelashes, a straight and small nose, and rosy lips. Together with her beautiful crimson-red long hair dancing in the wind, as well as that curvaceous, fiery, and perfectly delicate body,

this red-haired woman

was undoubtedly a beauty beyond compare.

At the same time,

this beauty was dressed in a full set of close-fitting armor shimmering with silver light.

Upon the breastplate, skirt armor, and the sword hilt at her waist, the emblem of the "Crimson Blood Lotus" was outlined.

From beneath the iron armor and leather guards, skin as white as snow and frost was faintly revealed.

This outfit not only filled the young woman with a valiant and heroic air, but also gave her a strong sense of sexiness and temptation.

Such a woman made Kedoci's heart stir slightly.

However,

very quickly, he suppressed that stirring.

After all, as a soldier who guarded Prosperous Flower City, his duty had to come first.

Faced with such a suspicious individual who had appeared inexplicably in a magical beast mountain forest, Kedoci needed to go over and question her first.

Thus,

riding his warhorse, Kedoci slowly approached the red-haired woman.

"Miss, this mountain forest is currently in a restricted-access state. Please explain why you are here. Also, please cooperate and show your identity card."

The moment he began carrying out his official duties, Kedoci became incomparably serious.

His tone did not soften at all because of the other party's beauty.

However,

after hearing Kedoci's words, the red-haired woman did not cooperate by showing her identity card.

Instead, she slowly turned her head and simply looked at Kedoci and the soldiers behind him.

Her orange-red eyes were indifferent and emotionless, making Kedoci feel an inexplicable chill.

"Miss, please show your identity card!"

Seeing that the woman still had not answered,

a trace of killing intent entered Kedoci's voice.

The aura around his body also began slowly spreading outward.

However,

faced with such an aura threat, the woman remained expressionless.

She even silently turned her head again and looked toward Prosperous Flower City in the distance.

Then,

the woman's clear and pleasant, yet utterly emotionless words suddenly entered Kedoci's ears.

"Are the garrison soldiers all awake?"

?!!

"Hm? Why are you asking that?"

Kedoci unconsciously felt that something was strange and couldn't help raising his hand to grip the hilt at his waist.

"Because, if they're all still asleep, it'll be too late for them to escape. I still need someone to deliver a message to the imperial capital."

Hearing this,

Kedoci frowned.

Although the woman before him had not released any power at all, she gave him an indescribable pressure.

Instinctively, Kedoci drew his sword and pointed the blade straight at the red-haired woman.

"You... what do you mean by th—?!!!"

However,

before he could finish speaking,

a crimson-red flash suddenly swept through Kedoci's eyes.

The next moment,

before he could even understand what had happened,

Kedoci's head abruptly came into intimate contact with the ground.

?!!

I... I... what is this?!

Only after discovering that he could no longer control his body ✧ NоvеIight ✧ (Original source) did Kedoci realize that he had already been separated from his head...

He had absolutely no idea what the woman before him had done.

Unfortunately, he no longer had any chance to find out.

Kedoci's consciousness quickly sank into boundless darkness...

At the same time,

the red light condensed from Shadow of Silence Power swept evenly toward every soldier behind Kedoci.

In the next instant,

accompanied by shrill screams, this countryside path was dyed red with blood...
