Chapter 161 - Let’s Settle Things
Meanwhile, Little Ghost was hovering over Viktor, feeling worried about him while frustrated at herself since she couldn't help him with what he needed.
She had seen everything that took place before and was awed to see how powerful Viktor really was, which she never personally witnessed before.
"So that voice was right all this time.." She mumbled, though looking at Viktor from afar, she clutched her chest having various complicated thoughts in her mind and hoped that he would be alright.
She also hoped that Nyissa and the Fujo Clan wouldn't make things difficult for him anymore but instead become more open-minded to his side of the story, especially since it was the right one.
After some time, Nyissa stirred awake, her expression looking better. But when she looked down at herself to check her injury, her eyes widened to see that she was half-naked with just her undergarments on her body.
She immediately looked to the right to see Viktor sleeping and knew that he stripped her like this. Her eyes reddened since she knew what this meant to her and didn't want to accept it.
She immediately took a dagger and was about to stab him when she suddenly felt a fabric tightened around the waist of her body..
She then realized that she was feeling better, and her injuries had stabilized without her doing anything, which should not have been possible unless..
Her hand with the dagger was still frozen in the air as she looked at Viktor's sleeping face, who seemed deep in sleep.
She remembered how Viktor wanted to remove her robes to help her and not for anything else.
However, she couldn't confirm if he did anything else to her body other than helping her heal. This was the thing that made her feel frustrated and annoyed though she hoped that he didn't do anything evil to her.
Still, the fact that he saw her half-naked body was something she couldn't digest and wanted to kill him. But again, the other half of her heart was stopping her since she might not be alive without him.
"Ha....why...." Nyissa finally gave in and laid back down as she let out a heavy sigh, wondering why she couldn't bring herself to kill him and again regretted fighting him in this place.
She immediately took her own recovery medicine after a brief moment of hesitation, which was a blue vial that she simply drank and already started to feel better, her injuries healing at a rapid pace.
She also dressed herself before Viktor could wake up and see her like that again though she knew he already saw it.
She made a strong mental note to ask him if he did anything else other than helping her after he woke up.
She slowly got up and rested her back against the wall, wondering where Ayana and the others were, making her feel worried about them.
She wanted to use her Odic Force, but she knew she had to heal a bit more first and reinvigorate herself to let Ayana find her.

But she didn't dare to use any more of her resources since she had no idea how long she would be stuck in this hell and if she might get injured again.
She looked at the sky outside and saw that it was becoming darker and darker while the air around her was dropping in temperature rapidly, which meant that it was already becoming evening in this place.
She could see the blood-red moon slowly preparing itself to show its face while the black sun was fading away from the picture.
She was a bit relieved to feel the temperature drop due to how hot it was before though she knew once the temperature settled in, she wouldn't be feeling the same about it.
She looked at Viktor again and, for a moment, she thought that he indeed looked harmless and flawlessly handsome. But then she shook her head, wondering why she was thinking about those things and labeled him as a demon again, thinking about the things he did to her, especially removing her clothes, feeling quite aggrieved and ashamed about it.
She was glad that nobody else was here to see what happened and was determined to keep this a secret forever and take it to her grave. Otherwise, she would no longer be seen as a pure woman in her own clan, and Viktor would be her husband in name at least, even if that might end up with him gaining the enmity of her clan.
Still, the seed of thought of Viktor being her husband took root in her mind, which was causing disrupting thoughts in her mind while preventing her from meditating to recover her energy.
She already felt as if she lost her chastity, and that was tormenting her mind, wondering why after all these centuries, she had to get involved with a man like this as her first.
"Ugh.."
Nyissa, who was trying to meditate with her eyes, suddenly heard a grunt from Viktor and opened one of her eyes to take a peek at him.
She knit her brows seeing that Viktor was grimacing as if he was feeling uncomfortable and his fingers were unconsciously scratching the stone floor.
'Is he in a weakened state?' Nyissa used her Odic Vision and saw that Viktor needed blood which she thought was understandable, especially when he fought the Ranars and used insanely powerful abilities before without feeding once.
Nyissa, however, pinched her lips and closed her eyes, trying to ignore him.
"Ngh.."
However, hearing his low grunts and the sound of his body fidgeting on the floor made her wince.
She thought about how he saved her despite the fact that she was trying to capture him and even literally killed him accidentally in the process though she still couldn't understand how exactly he came back alive.
Still, since the point was apparent, she opened her eyes as she mumbled, "Alright...Blood Demon...let's settle things!"
