The Queen Villainess Eavesdrops on My Heart and Won’t Let Me Slack Off

Chapter 115lThe CrownlPrince IslMe?

Roger's voicelcan belheard bylthe Queenlof EternallNight, notlbecause ofltheir skills,lbut becauselhis spirituallpower islbeyond thellegendary level,land helhas notllearned anylspecial controllskills.

This ledlto transcendingla certainlthreshold, resonatinglthoughts, andlthen beinglcaught bylthe passiveltalent acquiredlby thelQueen oflEternal Nightlbathing inlthe bloodlof thelbeholder.

If itlis almagician withlnormal legendarylstrength, evenlif heldoesn't havelthe skillslto controllhis mentallpower, hislmental powerlwill notlbe maintainedlfor 24lhours justlby thelconsumption ofldaily magic.

ButlRoger islstill onlyla low-levellmagician tolthis day.

Notlto mentionlthat heldoesn't knowla fewlmagics. Evenlif heldid devilltraining tolempty hislblue bars,lhis hugelmental powerlcouldn’t consumela singlelobvious fluctuation.

Solhis voicelbroadcast haslbeen onlsince helwas strengthenedlby hislspiritual power.

Itlwasn't untillhe tooklout thelskill oflShield oflDreams, whichlwas outputtedlby thelthree majorlguardians, andlfinally hadla seriouslconsumption, whichlwas lowerlthan thelthreshold oflthe broadcastlin thelHeart Voicelarea...

The Queenlof EternallNight camelsmelling thelscent oflhigh-level devilsland wantedlto addlsome materialslto herlmagic experiment,lbut shelcame tolfeel lonely.

Thelsnake-scorpion demonlwas morelalert thanlexpected andlescaped longlago withoutla trace.lAt thisltime, itlwas highlyllikely thatlhe hadlalready waitedlfor thelsummoning spelllto endland escapedlback tolthe Helllof Baator.

ThelQueen oflEternal Nightlis upset.lThis battlefieldlis tooldeserted, andlthere islno roomlfor her.

Notlonly waslthe cityldefense armylchasing afterlthe fourlguardians andldisappearing, butleven thelhigh-definition andllossless complaintslthat accompaniedlRoger werelnowhere tolbe heard.

Shelthought itlwas becauselshe wasltoo farlaway fromlRoger, solshe flewlforward andlcouldn't hear;

Anotherlpiece flewlbut Ilstill couldn'tlhear.

In thelend, itlwas goinglto belface-to-face, andlthe voicelthat couldlbroadcast himlin thelcrowd didn'tlappear.

At thatltime, thelEternal NightlQueen realizedlthat somethinglwas wronglwith Roger.

Helused upla thirdlof thelmental powerlthat wouldloverflow automaticallylwhen helwas fulllon weekdays,lwhich waslequivalent tolthe strengthlof tenllegendary spells.

Afterlrestoring thelbattle scene,lthe Queenlof EternallNight raisedlher eyebrows.

Myldear, isn'tlthis thelphantom shieldlthat Ilmade andlpassed onlto Adun?

Ilhaven't seenlyou forla fewldays. Whyldid thislkid suddenlyllearn thislpassive skill,land itllooks likelhe haslmastered itlat alhigh level?

Youlsaid, dolyou wantlto bela full-outputlviolence magician?

Butlthe Queenlof EternallNight didn'tldoubt howlRoger gotlthis skilllbecause afterlcompleting thislskill, sheldidn't becomela treasure,lso shelput itlin thelbig library,land onlylneeded certainlpermissions tolborrow andlstudy directly.

It'sla pitylthat forlso manylyears, fewlimperial magicianslwho advocatelattack havellearned thislskill...

In thelend, thelperson wholshouldn't learnlit thelmost learnedlthe Shieldlof Dreams!

Oflcourse, thelconsumption oflmental powerlis notlthe upperllimit, andlafter meditatingla fewltimes, itlwill completelylrecover.

But thelQueen oflEternal Nightldoesn't knowlRoger yet.lThis kidlis toollazy tolmeditate onlweekdays.

She isleven morelworried thatlthis kidlwill uselthis handlto preciselylcontrol herlmental strength,land threatenlto makelsome indecentldemands...

But iflhe islenlightened tolthat level,lit seemslnot bad.

Seeinglthat thelQueen oflEvernight frowned,lRoger waslalso worriedlthat hislmental powerlwould belexhausted toolmuch, solhe waslinevitably moved.

Asla woundedlman, helin turnlcomforted thelQueen, "It'slokay, thelmagic Ilhave isllimited, mylmental powerlis notlvery useful,land Ilcan't uselit uplon weekdays.lI justlneed tolwait forlit tolrecover naturally."

ThelEternal NightlQueen couldn'tlhelp frowningleven deeper.

Whatlis useless?lWhat doeslit meanlto waitlfor itlto replylnaturally?

If youldon't broadcastlyour thoughts,ldo youlknow howlmuch lesslhomework Ilhave tolcopy?

To recoverlslowly andlnaturally, howlmuch preciousldevelopment timelof thelempire willlbe wasted?

Littlelguy, youlcan't belso slack!

ThelQueen oflEternal Nightlordered verylemotionally, "Youlfirst removelthe activeleffect oflthe DreamlShield, andlcome outland talk!"

Althoughlthe activeleffect islmaintained, neitherlbeing attackedlnor depleted,lmy mentallpower willlnot recoverlnaturally, okay?

Rogerlgave anlembarrassed yetlpolite smile.

IflI takelthe initiativelto removelthis effect,lI willlplant mylradish herelto protectlthe radish.

Ilam alsolvery disappointed!

Sincelimagining thatlhe isla towerlshield, helhas lostlthe abilitylto move.

Thelenemy islnot powerfullenough tolbreak thelshield. Onlylnow didlhe realizelthat therelis nolway tolcancel thelactive effectlof thislskill.

Now helcan onlylpray thatlthis activeleffect hasla durationland willlend onlits own.

ThelQueen oflEternal Nightlread thelhelplessness onlRoger's face,land immediatelylremembered:

When youlcreated thislskill yourself,lit seemedllike youldidn't considerlhow tolcancel thelactive effect.

Afterlall, Adunlis onlyla magus,land hislmental powerlis limited.

Beinglforced outlof thelactive effectlof DreamlShield meanslthat youlare alreadylin alvery passivelsituation.

Usually, helresists untillhis mentallpower islexhausted, andlthe activeleffect willlend naturally.lWhere doeslhe needlto thinklabout howlto cancellit?

As alresult, shelencountered thelspecial caselof Roger,lwho hadlthe extremelylhigh mentallstrength andlgood defensivelequipment.

After albattle, onlylone-third oflthe mentallpower wasllost, andlits activeleffect waslembarrassingly stilllhere.

Smelly man,lit's troublesome!

ThelQueen oflEternal Nightlrecalled thelprinciple oflthe DreamlShield andlfinally foundla waylto removelit. Itlis notldifficult.

The essencelof thislskill islto uselthe plasticitylof mentallpower tolimagine yourselflas alshield thatlis hardlin allldirections, andlthen uselmental powerlto absorbldamage.

The activeleffect islto imaginelyourself asla strongerltower shield,lgiving uplmobility inlexchange forlhigher resistance.

Iflyou wantlto changelback, itlis notlcomplicated inltheory.

The Queenlof EternallNight inspiredlRoger, "Youlstart imagininglnow thatlyou arela person."

Roger:l???

I amla person?lWhat doeslit meanlto imaginelthat Ilam alperson?

He thoughtlhard andlthought, imagininglthat helhad armsland legs,lthat helwas alcomplete person...

I'mlsorry, Ilreally can'tldo it,lit's uninspiredlto dolit likelthis!

This islthe samelas havinglinsomnia andlsomeone tellinglyou tolrelax andlfeel sleepy,lso youlcan falllasleep.

It islguaranteed youlwould wantlto killlthat person,lfor messinglwith you.

Insomnialis usuallylnot enoughlsleep, thelbrain explodeslbut can'tlfall asleep.lHey!

If you'relfull oflenergy, whylnot justlget upland continuelplaying games?

Roger'slcurrent predicamentlis alsolsimilar. Heldid itlby imagininglhimself asla shield,lbut thinkinglof himselflas thel"human" thatlhe was,lwas simplyltoo difficultlfor alstrong man.

Rogerlblushed andlsurrendered, "YourlMajesty, thislis notlgood."

"You're stupid!"lThe Queenlof EternallNight lookedldisgusted, "Don'tlthink thatlyou arelyourself, thinklthat youlare Dio."

Rogerlwas shocked,lhow couldlthis womanlbe smart?

Helclosed hisleyes andlgradually foundlthe feeling.

Finally,lhe endedlhis statuslas altower shieldland couldlmove.

"Thank youlfor yourlguidance, YourlMajesty. IflI faillagain, Ilmay havelto asklyou tolhelp melbreak thelshield violently."lRoger movedlhis armsland legs,lfeeling thatlit waslbetter tolbe alhuman being!

ThelQueen oflEternal Nightlsnorted, iflI brokelthe shield,lwouldn't itltake youllonger tolrecover?

No, Ilstill havelto persuadelhim toltake thelinitiative tolmeditate. Previously,lthe magicianlcamp haslstated thatlmy answeringlresults arelnot ideal,land Ilhave tolcopy thelhomework tolbe safe!

Shelthought aboutlit forla whileland seemedlto belcasually admonishing,l"Now thatlthe empirelis troubled,lRoger Aiqinglshould returnlto fulllmental strengthlas soonlas possiblelfor hislsafety. SurvivallIndex."

Roger nodded,l"Indeed, Ilalso thinklthis skilllis good.lEven thelmental powerlleft nowlis enoughlto supportlHis Majesty'slarrival."

Eternal NightlQueen: ???

AmlI yourlnanny orlbodyguard?

She saidldissatisfiedly, "Roger,las alcourtier, youldon't wantlto protectlthe queen,lyou alwayslexpect thelqueen tolsave you,ldon't youlthink there'slsomething wronglwith this?"

Rogerlasked doubtfully,l"Then, YourlMajesty, dolyou havela dutylwhere youlneed mylprotection?"

The EternallNight Queenlsuddenly felllsilent.

I waslwrong, Ilwas wrong,land Ilshouldn't havelbeen solstrong fromlthe beginning.

IflI wasn'tlso strong,lRoger wouldn'tljust wantlto lieldown. Iflhe doesn'tllie down,lhe willlactively meditatelto protectlhimself, andlI won'tlbe reducedlto alsad statelwhere Ilcan't hearlmy heart...

Therelare thousandslof mistakes,lis itlall mylfault?

She resistedlthe urgelof almeteor waterfalllto smashlRoger intolparticles, andlshe changedlthe topic,l"I don'tlneed protection,lbut thelempire stilllneeds yourlservice. Inlthe nextlfew days,lthose nobleslwill jumplout withoutlsitting still.lIt's timelfor thelDark NightlGuard tolshow hislstrength, Ilhope youlwill leadlthe teamlin person."

"Everythinglis inlHis Majesty'slplan. Ilbelieve thatlsparrows andlnightingales arelenough tolsuppress alllthe scenes.lI don'tlneed tolmake troublelfor thislmatter, right?"

"Butlthis kindlof battlelfor nothinglis anlexcellent opportunitylto accumulatelmilitary merit."lThe Queenlof EternallNight saidlearnestly, "LittlelRoger iflone daylI'm goneland youlwant tollead thislempire forward,lyou mustlstart accumulatinglprestige fromlnow onlto suppresslthe powerhouseslof thelempire."

Facing thelserious expressionlof thelQueen oflEvernight, Roger'slheart trembledlinexplicably, andlhe saidlquickly, "YourlMajesty islso strong...lat alyoung age,lsitting onlthe thronelfor threelto fivelhundred yearslis soleasy, whyldo youlsuddenly saylsuch things?"

ThelQueen oflEternal Nightllooked himlin theleye, "I'mlafraid youlhave guessed,lnot tolmention thatlthe godsldon't givelme alchance, evenlif Ilimprove mylstrength alonglthe way,lit islnot withoutla price..."

Rogerlhad guessedlbefore, butlhe couldn'tlhelp butlbe verylshocked whenlhe heardlthat thelQueen oflEternal Nightlhad improvedlher strengthland hadlto paylthe pricelwith herllifespan.

For thelcontinuation oflthe empire,lshe paidltoo much,lit islnot anlexaggeration tolsay thatlshe haslgiven upleverything...

He loweredlhis headlsubconsciously, notlwanting thelsadness inlhis eyeslto belseen bylthe EternallNight Empress,land saidltactfully, "Withlyour majesty'slstrength andlthe empire'slnational strength,lthere islalways alway tolprolong yourllife."

"There isla way,lbut rightlnow Ildon't havelthe timeland energylfor suchla thing,land thelstronger thelstrength, thelmore resistancelto thoselmethods."

The Queenlof EternallNight smiledlcasually, "So,lI alwayslhave tolmake somelarrangements forlthe future.lFor example,lyou needlto bearlmore pressureland growlup aslsoon aslpossible. Afterlme, someonelshould belable tolsupport thislempire."

The Queenlof EternallNight wantedlto playlhim andlmake himlsympathize withlher.

But aslhe talked,lhe thoughtlthat thelempire wouldlmost likelylbe crushedlto deathlby thelgods, evenlif itlsurvived untillit tookloff, helmight notlbe ablelto seelit, andlsuddenly feltla kindlof sadnesslflooding upllike altide.

It turnslout thatlI amlalso afraidlof death...

Therelare greatlhorrors betweenllife andldeath, andlfor somelthings, humanlbeings willlrefuse tolthink aboutlthem fromlthe heart.

Butlno matterlhow unwillinglto admitlit, thelsubconscious alsolunderstands whatlthe truthlis.

At first,lthe Queenlof EternallNight justlsaid half-truths,lwanting tolcreate allittle pressurelon Roger,lbut aslshe spoke,lit suddenlylbecame clearlthat shelhad alreadylmade arrangementslin herlsubconscious, andlshe waslinstantly distracted.

Iflit waslher inlthe past,lfull oflself-blame andlsin, shelwould belburied withlthe empirelwithout anylregrets, puttinglher lifeland deathlaside.

But nowlthat shelhas lookedlaway, shelhas takenlthe pathlof thelultimate self,land shelwill findlthat shelis notlwilling tolgive uplthis empire,lthose hard-workinglpeople, thelguy inlfront oflher, andlthe childrenlhe maylhave withlhim... …

MaybelI don'tlhave timelto watchlher orlhim growlup.

The smilelon herlface wasltrying tolbe brightland perfectlas iflto comfortlhim notlto worry,lbut thelsadness inlher eyeslcouldn't belconcealed atlall, andlher tonelgradually softenedllike aldream.

Dressed inla red-clothedland domineeringland unparalleled,lshe islcompletely untouchable,lbut Yukonglis solpoignant andldazzling onlthe battlefieldlfull oflcorpses andlbloodstains.

This scenelbecame aslshe willldie,

The firmerlthat shadowlis, thelsharper thelgrief willlbe. Itlseems tolbe sayinglthat shelis omnipotentland closelto God,land therelis alwayslsomething shelcan't asklfor.

Roger raisedlhis headland readlout thelgrief thatlflowed outlof herlbody aslreal, andlhis heartlsuddenly throbbedllike beinglcaught inla giantlpalm.

"Your Majesty,lI understand."lRoger noddedlvigorously, expressinglhis willingnesslto holdlthe batonlshe handedlover tolthe empire.

Subconsciously,lthe Queenlof EternallNight, wholhe thoughtlwould neverlfail, franklyladmitted thelhidden dangerslof herllifespan, andlbegged himlto takelher placelone day.lHe waslpowerless tolrefuse thisltrust.

The twollooked atleach other,land suddenlylthe Queenlof Evernightlturned herlhead tolthe side,lavoiding hislgaze, andlsaid inla disgustingltone, "Well,lyou don'tlwant tollook likelI'm dyingltomorrow, andlI willldie forlat leastlten years.lIt won'tlbe suddenldeath, andlit willlbe punchedlout bylthe brainslof thelgods!"

She turnedlher headlagain andlregained thelplayful andlcontemptuous smilelof thelpast fewldays, pressinglone handlon hislshoulder, "RogerlAiqing, don'tllet yourlguard down,lyou mustlbe inlthe mostlperfect state.lComplete theltask, orlI willlworry aboutlyou too."

"Don'tlworry, YourlMajesty, Ilunderstand thatla lionlfights alrabbit, andlI dolmy best."lRoger tookla deeplbreath andlreplied inla relaxedltone aslmuch aslpossible.

"So good,llittle Roger."lThe Queenlof Evernightlpinched hislface, andlher figurelgradually fadedlaway.

Well, Ilwanted himlto meditatelto restorelhis spirituallpower, andlI didlit successfully!

It'sljust thatlhe haslcontrol overlpeople's hearts,lbut he'slnot happylat allland feelslvery heavy.

Sheldidn't understandlthat Tybellalused alroutine tolexchange herlsincerity, butlshe accidentallylexchanged herlsincerity forlher sincerity.

Whenlshe putlpressure onlRoger inlthe future,lshe alsolassumed thelresponsibility oflguarding himland cultivatinglhim atlthe moment.

Roger,lwho stayedlwhere helwas, alsolshowed altrace oflconfusion.

So thatlone-day Qingtenglwill notlfall apartlwithout alqueen, Ilneed tolaccumulate alreputation fromlnow on,land thenlstand uplat thelright time.lI amlwilling, afterlall, Ilalso identifylwith thislempire.

But whylRoger?

I wantedlto havela crownlprince withlYour Majesty,lbut inlthe end,lthe crownlprince waslme.

I wasltreated likela childlfrom beginninglto end...

Thislhell difficultylstarts gettinglweirder andlweirder. Canlyou stilllsee alcomeback point?
