Northern Princess licked the lollipop and said, "Big Sister! Thank you for the lollipop!"
"Good girl!" Illustrious stroked Northern Princess's head. "Is it good?"
"It's good! I didn't expect you to have such delicious lollipops. It's a good thing I stopped and didn't kill you back then." Northern Princess had a lollipop to eat, so she was in a very good mood. She didn't even mind Illustrious stroking her head and even started answering Illustrious's questions.
"Northern-chan! Who sent you to assassinate me?" Illustrious didn't believe that a loli as innocent and cute as Northern Princess, who would help count the money for the person selling her, would be the one who wanted to kill her. Therefore, Illustrious believed that the person who wanted to kill her must be someone else.
"It was the Second Calamity Abyssal Entity, Middle Princess. She said you were very dangerous, so she sent me to assassinate you." Since someone gave her a lollipop to eat, Northern Princess thought Illustrious was a good person, so she immediately sold out Middle Princess.
Middle Princess, the Second Calamity Abyssal Entity, huh? Hmph! She would remember this grudge. Illustrious continued to ask, "Northern-chan! How did you control Shokaku?"
"That involves the secret of my unique ability, so I won't tell you easily." Northern Princess immediately refused to answer.
"Then if I give you a lollipop, can you tell me?" Illustrious took out another lollipop, looking exactly like a creepy uncle luring a little loli.
"Who do you think I, the great Tenth Calamity Abyssal Entity, am? You want to bribe me with just one lollipop?" Northern Princess said disdainfully.
Illustrious understood instantly. She immediately took out another lollipop and held it out to Northern Princess. "Then how about I give you another one?"
"Okay, deal!" Northern Princess snatched the two lollipops from Illustrious's hand.
Northern Princess cleared her throat and began to recount what happened two and a half hours ago.
...
Two and a half hours ago, Shokaku was sitting in a massage chair getting a massage. "Ah! So comfortable, this is truly addictive!"
After a while, Shokaku suddenly sighed. "Sigh! In four months, the Admiral is getting married, but unfortunately, the bride isn't me. Damn it! If it weren't for Azuma, I would definitely be able to win over the Admiral."
"But I can't give up now. You have to know that they haven't married yet, so I should still have a chance."
"Big Sister! You look like you have troubles! Do you want me to help you?" Northern Princess suddenly appeared in front of Shokaku.
Looking at this white-haired loli who appeared suddenly, Shokaku felt a palpitation, because this person was from the Deep Sea, and when she used her mental power to probe, she found it as bottomless as the ocean.
Against this kind of opponent, one cannot use force; one can only use wit. In order not to act rashly and alert the enemy, Shokaku decided to go along with her wishes first. Perhaps she really wanted to help her, who knows! "Little sister, how do you plan to help me?"
"I can make you throw away your inhibitions and then completely let yourself go." Northern Princess raised her right hand, and Aura constantly gathered in her right hand. With a blink of an eye, a black ball of light appeared in mid-air.
"Unique Ability—Featherfall Ash!"
Northern Princess squeezed hard, and the black ball of light instantly exploded. Then, countless black feathers drifted down in the surrounding space.
Looking at the feathers in the air, Shokaku felt they were not a good thing. She wanted to dodge, but found that her body couldn't move.
Northern Princess said indifferently, "You can't hide. When the black feathers fall, you can only let me do as I please with you."
"From now on, don't try to keep your sanity; instead, follow your heart."
Shokaku's eyes became dull, then returned to normal after three seconds. Then, she walked toward the hot spring pool. "The Admiral is mine, no one can take him away. Today, I will definitely conquer the Admiral."
Northern Princess laughed. "Illustrious! I want your days to be full of misery, so painful that you can't live normally, and then I will assassinate you. Hehehe..."
...
"You should know what happened next, right! So I don't need to tell you." After finishing the last lollipop, Northern Princess smiled wickedly. "How was it? Almost losing your virginity, did it feel great?"
Ah! It was great, so great that I want to strangle you. Illustrious thought this internally, but on the surface, she smiled and said, "You might have made a mistake. Actually, I'm not as dangerous as Middle Princess said. You have to know that I am just a mere Gold-Plated Ship Girl! What virtue or ability do I have to make Middle Princess think I'm dangerous?"
Lowering her head and thinking for a while, Northern Princess nodded and said, "That's true! You are so weak, just like a piece of trash with a combat power of only five. I could slap you to death with one palm."
You're the trash, your whole family is trash. Illustrious scolded Northern Princess internally, but on the surface, she said kindly, "Right, right! Since I'm so weak, why don't you just not assassinate me?"
Northern Princess was a Calamity Abyssal Entity; Illustrious had absolutely no power to resist. Thinking about being followed by Northern Princess every day, and then being stabbed in the back by her one day! Illustrious felt a chill down her spine.
Shaking her head, Northern Princess said seriously, "No, Middle Princess said that if the assassination isn't successful, I'm not allowed to go home."
"To succeed in the assassination and go home, Illustrious, you still have to die. Haaa!" Northern Princess suddenly erupted with a powerful aura. She clenched her five fingers into a fist, then kicked off the ground and quickly attacked Illustrious.
Seeing this scene, Illustrious was stunned. "This is the first time I've seen someone run straight up to someone else to assassinate them. Does your assassination have to be so hardcore?"
"Shut up! Hurry up and go to hell!" Northern Princess aimed her fist at Illustrious's head, intending to blow her head off with one strike and end Illustrious's life.
"Sigh! My life is over!" Illustrious closed her eyes and sighed. Northern Princess was a Calamity Abyssal Entity, while she was just a small Gold-Plated Ship Girl. The gap between them was like a chasm. How could she fight? She couldn't win! The level difference was too great.
Before dying, a flashback of her life appeared in Illustrious's mind. She said faintly, "I'm sorry, Vicious and Atago! It seems I can't save you from the Deep Sea Cult. I'm sorry! Azuma, it seems I can't marry you. Even though you were looking forward to it so much, I'm sorry! To all the Ship Girls in my Naval Base, I hope you can live well after I die."
"Last words said, then go die!" Northern Princess had already approached Illustrious. Just as her fist was 0.01 centimeters away from hitting Illustrious, her stomach suddenly rumbled. She then put her hands on her stomach and squatted down. "Ah! So hungry! Come to think of it, I've been on the road all day and haven't eaten a single meal!"
Illustrious's mouth couldn't help but twitch. "Are you a clown hired by the monkey mountain? Please, can you be a bit more professional in your assassination!"
