Seduce The Villainess (GL)

(Xyrean Province- Inner Regions)

(The Mermaid\'s Lake -Unnamed Settlement)

"I wish to offer you a chance to obtain a power of you own…"

Father Han\'s words echoed through the clearing as he stared at the beautiful woman next to him.

The middle-aged priest stretched out his hand and gave a warm and welcoming smile.

Eve\'s cold expression remained the same as she looked at the hand that was mere inches away from her body.

This human… he wanted to use his gift on her?

The zombie empress was feeling quite amused as she gazed at the priest who tried his best to conceal the lust that was hidden in his stare.

She imagined what the look on his face would be like if he realised that he had given a gift to a monster.

"Why would you give me a special ability? How can you trust me?" Eve softly asked as she stepped away from the outstretched hand.

"My dear… the Lord works in mysterious ways… it is fate that we have met, and I believe that you will become a valued member of this community," Father Han smoothly replied.

"The world outside is incredibly dangerous. I am offering you strength to protect yourself and to help contribute to this settlement by using your newfound ability."

"I understand your hesitation but please… consider this as an opportunity that you will never see again…"

Father Han spoke in a soft gentle tone and used all of the tricks of persuasion that he had learned over the years.

Eve\'s face seemed conflicted, so the middle-aged priest knew that his speech was working. As a woman in the end times, it was not easy to survive.

Anyone would be tempted by the offer to receive a free ability. Father Han did tell a little lie in his speech which was that he expected her to use her gift.

No… he would never let that beautiful face be ruined by wrinkles…

This mysterious woman deserved to be locked up in the church with him for the rest of her life like a canary in a cage.

The zombie empress furrowed her brows slightly as she could not help but be a bit curious.

Subject 001 was hunting her down so any chance to improve her strength would definitely be an advantage in the upcoming fight.

"Okay…" Eve hesitantly whispered as she held out her hand and roughly grabbed the middle-aged priest\'s fingers.

Father Han gritted his teeth in pain as it felt as though his hand was being crushed. This beautiful woman had one hell of a firm grip.

The priest closed his eyes and focused on the warm and fuzzy feeling in his chest that seemed to get hotter by the minute.

He felt something flow out from his hand and enter Eve\'s body. Father Han continued to channel his ability but…

There was something wrong.

It was like his ability was pouring into a bottomless pit. No matter how much energy he allowed to enter Eve\'s body… there was no effect.

Father Han stumbled backwards as he reached the bottom of his energy reserves and a wave of exhaustion hit his body.

The middle-aged priest opened his mouth to say something but froze in fear as he looked at Eve\'s face.

The beautiful woman was still as charming and attractive as before but now her eyes were completely pitch-black.

There was a dangerous aura surrounding her body and the middle-aged priest felt as though he was a rabbit standing in front of a hungry wolf.

Father Han\'s body trembled uncontrollably, and he took a few steps backwards away from the terrifying creature.

He tripped over a tree root and his head slammed against the ground with a dull thud.

The last image that the priest saw before his vision turned to darkness was Eve standing over his body with a knowing smile.

Eve stared at the unconscious priest and raised up her right hand. She closed her eyes and checked her body for any changes.

There were none.

Apparently, the priest\'s ability to give special powers only worked on humans and she was no longer one.

Eve let out a disappointed sigh and slowly walked towards the edge of the lakeshore and then sat down on the muddy earth.

The crystal-clear water sparkled under the sunlight and several birds flew overhead. It was a beautiful day, but Eve was in no mood to appreciate it.

If she did not find Qin Lan by nightfall, then she would leave this settlement and roam around the area until she picked up her favourite human\'s scent.

Of course… she still had no idea what she would do once she encountered Qin Lan.

How could she tell her that her brother was still alive and working with a monster? Or the reason why she had tried to kill Qin Wei.

Eve rubbed her fingers together uneasily as she dipped her toes in the lake and felt the cool water brush against her feet.

Qin Lan…

That name made her feel all kinds of emotions and the zombie empress did not know how to deal with her feelings.

She missed Qin Lan… she still loved Qin Lan… she was afraid of Qin Lan…

The fear of being rejected and hated made Eve hesitant to seek out her favourite human even though she missed her terribly.

The zombie empress was a powerful monster but in terms of emotional development she had been trapped in a test tube for an uncountable number of years.

Dealing with relationships and emotional attachments was not her strong suit… to be put it mildly.

Eve let out a heavy sigh as she slowly got up and brushed some of the mud from the bottom of her pants.

The priest was still unconscious, but his body stirred slightly, and his eyelid began to tremble as if he was about to wake up.

Eve\'s fingernails slowly became claws as she contemplated slitting the priest\'s throat since he had seen her true appearance.

She walked over to his fallen body, but the image of Qin Lan\'s desperate expression flashed across her mind.

No… she shouldn\'t kill unnecessarily.

Father Han may think that what he saw was a dream… or at the very least he had no proof that she was a monster.

There was no need to end his life.

Eve lifted up the old priest\'s body and leaned him against a nearby tree. She walked away and waited patiently for him to wake up.

A few minutes passed and then gradually Father Han\'s eyelids slowly raised, and he woke up from his slumber.

The middle-aged priest looked around in confusion as he tried to remember what had happened after he channeled his power into Eve\'s body.

He began to tremble as he remembered the beautiful woman\'s monstrous appearance and her pitch-black eyes.

"Are you okay?" a feminine voice politely asked.

Father Han turned towards the direction of the sound and saw that Eve\'s eyes were a normal colour as if what he had just seen was a mere illusion.

Was it all just a dream? Maybe he had fainted after exhausting his power…
