Chapter 55: Grasping the Girl’s Photo

In the dungeon of Shadowmoon Manor.

Su Nian, who had just knocked her small head against the floor in submission, remained prostrate.

At this moment.

She didn’t dare stop her current actions; she feared failing to satisfy the damned horned demon, ruining all her efforts.

No matter what, escaping this dungeon came first. 

For that, she had already sacrificed so much.

Ugh…

As for the flickering system notification, she had seen it too.

Still kneeling, she used her consciousness to open the so-called [Ownership] status the system mentioned. 

What the hell was this?

Current Status: Naked, Mana Depleted, Captured, Owned, Masochistic Constitution, Virgin.

[Ownership]:

Current Master: Horned Demon.

[Property]:

As the master’s property, sensitivity and pleasure are reduced by 80% in front of others, and the masochistic constitution is nullified (returning to normal levels). 

However, sensitivity and pleasure increase by 20% when facing the master.

(Even when alone, the host will return to normal levels.)

[Master’s Tasks]:

The system will provide additional rewards based on the difficulty of tasks assigned by the host’s real-world master. 

Conversely, if the host fails to complete the master’s tasks and is punished, the system will impose additional penalties.

(These penalties are not permanent-temporary effects like a masochistic constitution or lactation may be applied. The system is always on the host’s side, but it forces her to endure more humiliation to ascend as a deity sooner.)

Ugh…

Damned system! 

And it claims to be helping her!

Then explain why, knowing she was only temporarily compromising, it still added this status to her profile?

Fortunately, upon closer inspection, the [Ownership] details weren’t entirely bad.

The first part, [Property], meant that while she’d be more vulnerable in front of the horned demon, she’d no longer have any “weaknesses” in front of others.

As for the [Master’s Tasks], the actual effects remained unclear for now.

But it didn’t matter. 

None of this was important.

As long as she escaped and found a way to kill that damned horned demon, the [Ownership] status would naturally be lifted.

By then, this bastard wouldn’t even get the chance to use those [Master’s Tasks]!

“That’s enough. Stand up, my little slave.” Chu Tian’s voice rang out.

Su Nian slowly rose to her feet.

Her current state completely unclothed-filled her with unbearable shame. 

Her left hand shielded her lower body, while her right arm crossed over her chest, barely concealing the rosy peaks atop her snowy mounds.

Yet vast stretches of her fair, delicate skin remained fully exposed before the damned horned demon.

Chu Tian didn’t hold back. 

He stepped forward, inhaling the maiden’s virginal fragrance, his eyes gleaming as they roamed over the barely concealed curves beneath her arms.

“Tsk tsk, as expected of a continental idol-utterly breathtaking!” Chu Tian praised, deliberately provoking Su Nian with his words.

“Ding! Humiliation Points +1,821.”

“Ding! Provocation Points +1,821.”

Just as he expected-even casual taunts could earn Provocation Points.

After confirming the recording crystal had captured everything, Chu Tian still felt something was missing.

Though the image of her kneeling and begging for ownership might indeed crush Su Nian’s pride, it lacked a definitive… core photograph to seal the deal.

During this time, Su Nian had mostly been covering her body with her hands, or there were only shots of her kneeling without her face visible.

In short, it wasn’t solid enough!

In a flash of thought, Chu Tian came up with a scene that would absolutely humiliate Su Nian if anyone were to see it.

“Next, your master-me-has one final request. Once it’s fulfilled, you’ll be free,” Chu Tian said after a moment of contemplation.

Sniff…

Su Nian covered herself with her hands, biting her lower lip. 

Every second spent here was torture.

Damn demon, what else does he want now?

He promised to let her go.

“W-what is it?” The girl’s ethereal, delicate voice trembled with grievance.

“Lower your hands-no covering allowed. Then, take the lanyard of your mentor’s badge in your mouth. Do this, let me take one look, and you’ll be free,” Chu Tian commanded.

Upon hearing the demon’s demand, Su Nian’s stunning face, already filled with misery, twisted in shock.

Oh my god!

What is this perverted demon saying?!

Is he deliberately trying to humiliate me?

But at this point, after going so far, if she gave up halfway, wouldn’t all her kneeling, begging, and submission be for nothing? 

She’d still be trapped here, tormented by this bastard demon…

No!

At this stage, she had no choice but to obey. 

As long as she could get out, she’d do anything.

Su Nian, having suffered one major humiliation after another, had already lost her composure and rationality. 

She couldn’t pick up on the subtle clues that Chu Tian was setting up for the hidden recording crystal ball behind the scenes.

The next moment.

In the dimly lit dungeon.

The dazzlingly beautiful golden-haired girl slowly lowered her hands and, with her teeth, took hold of the lanyard of the mentor’s badge hanging around her neck.

Thus, the scene was a completely exposed young girl, holding the symbol of her identity, the mentor’s badge, in her mouth.

And at this very moment.

The recording crystal ball captured this close-up shot, clearly displaying the name and photo on the badge-Su Nian herself.

Of course, if even the name on the badge was visible, there was no need to mention the areas she had been covering with her hands earlier…

“Haa…” 

Chu Tian let out a long exhale.

Finally, it was done.

With this, the footage of her kneeling, begging, and submitting, combined with this photo, would serve as leverage-something even Su Nian’s parents couldn’t ignore.

“Good. Perfect,” Chu Tian remarked.

Hearing this, Su Nian immediately crouched down, covering herself again.

Sniff…

He saw everything…

I hate this so much!

“Now will you let me go?!” Su Nian clenched her teeth, her voice trembling with anger.

If this bastard demon still refused to keep his word, it would mean he never intended to release her; he was just toying with her!

If that were the case… she might as well not have done anything at all.

“Of course you may leave. But if Miss Su Nian wishes to stay the night, I wouldn’t mind,” Chu Tian said.

“Who would ever want to stay here?!” Su Nian snapped, her face burning with shame.

So… she could finally leave!

“Allow me to step out for five minutes. This time is reserved for the elegant lady to dress herself,” Chu Tian said, though in truth, he needed the time to extract the footage from the recording crystal ball.

With that.

A swirl of black mist, and the figure before her vanished.

Hmph!

What a hypocrite! 

A perverted demon pretending to be a gentleman!

After leaving Shadowmoon Manor, she would absolutely not let this perverted horned demon off the hook. 

This time, she would be extremely careful and never fall into such a predicament again.

Five minutes later.

Su Nian had already dressed herself.

At this moment, she appeared as if the humiliating incident had never happened, maintaining her noble and elegant demeanor.

The black evening gown accentuated the young woman’s snow-white skin. 

Her eyes were slightly swollen from crying multiple times tonight, yet they remained captivating, exuding a unique charm.

Meanwhile, Chu Tian had returned to the dungeon, but now he was holding a square gift box in his hand.

That’s right.

Inside the gift box was a recorded scene from a crystal ball and several photos of the young woman.
