The Jealousy of the Blackheart Princess [Part 2]
Levis stood beside her.
Cowed by Evelyn’s presence.
Not daring to speak.
"Levis, you remember this."
Evelyn suddenly turned.
Her purple eyes fixed on him.
"If you ever encounter that woman and her worthless beast-soul master again, I want you to let me unleash my beast-soul skill immediately—and kill her! I want her to know the price of betraying the Blackheart family!"
"Evelyne, don’t worry. Next time I see them, I won’t hesitate."
"Good." Evelyn nodded.
*[Ding! Target: Evelyn Blackheart. Tyranny Value increased by 2%.]*
*[Ding! Target: Evelyn Blackheart. Tyranny Value increased by 3%.]*
...
Leon felt a surge of joy.
Selena knew the Blackheart family’s estate like the back of her hand.
She had led him straight to Evelyn’s residence.
As long as he stayed near Evelyn, he could absorb Tyranny Value.
Of course—the catch was that she had to be doing something "tyrannical or bad."
And plotting murder and mayhem like this definitely met the criteria.
If he wanted to accumulate faster—
She needed to actually catch him, insult him, torture him, torment him—direct action against Leon himself—that would make the value skyrocket.
But slow and steady was fine.
He could always come back.
A panel appeared before Leon’s eyes.

A spider-type beast-girl, huh!
Leon had never seen Evelyn beastify.
For some reason, his blood flow quickened.
He found himself oddly anticipating it?
Also, the evolution condition... choking the throat?
*What the hell is that?*
*Wait, Evelyn—are you some kind of sadistic woman?*
Leon couldn’t help but silently grumble.
Inside the villa, Evelyn continued.
"Oh, by the way, I’m short on test subjects. When are you bringing me more?"
"Evelyne, didn’t I just send you some last time?"
"Those were useless. Every one of them was worthless—couldn’t even stimulate venom production."
Evelyn’s gaze was contemptuous.
As if the lives she called "test subjects" were nothing more than insignificant ants to her.
"Your beast-soul... requires that many test subjects?"
"It’s not that I don’t want to help you, it’s just... it’s just..." Levis looked troubled.
"Levis, you’re my beast-soul master. Can’t you even satisfy this small request?"
"Last time when I helped you discreetly capture people, it alerted the city defense forces. It took a huge effort to smooth things over..."
"I’m afraid..."
Leon heard everything clearly from outside.
*Is this Levis some kind of simp?*
*The way he practically worships Evelyn.*
*Even a dog would shake its head in disgust.*
But then again... not everyone had a soul contract with strong binding effects.
Leon understood.
"What are you afraid of?"
"Just capture them. Who cares if a few commoners die? They’ll just birth more anyway. Are those test subjects more important than improving my strength?"
"I understand, Evelyne. Tomorrow I’ll—"
Before he could finish, Evelyn cut him off.
"Get lost now."
"Good thing I made preparations yesterday."
Evelyn’s voice was as cold as winter ice.
Levis silently turned around.
He walked out of the courtyard with his head lowered.
Letting out a long, helpless sigh.
Outside the villa, hidden beneath the concealment of the Divine Beast Domain, Leon watched his departing figure.
His expression was complicated.
"...Seriously."
He almost felt sorry for the man.
"Holy hell..."
"You’ve really hit rock bottom as a Beast Soul Master."
He shook his head helplessly.
"You’re her Beast Soul Master."
"If you want to build a close relationship with your contracted Beast Girl, shouldn’t the two of you naturally spend time together?"
"Sleep together maybe?"
"Have sex to deepen your bond?"
"Yet she tells you to get lost..."
"And you actually obey without saying a single word?"
Leon couldn’t help sighing again.
In this world, the relationship between a Beast Soul Master and a contracted Beast Girl was regarded as something deeply intimate.
Almost like a married couple.
Building trust, sharing responsibilities, and strengthening their bond together were all considered natural parts of that relationship.
Yet Levis looked less like a partner.
And more like a servant who followed every order without question.
Leon found the whole situation both amusing and exasperating.
