Having the genes of a demon king, I never intended to be a kept man.

Princess Emilia covered her chest with one hand in a protective gesture, and covered her pointed elven ears with the other, looking at Night Song with a mixture of shame, anger, and fear.

The pointed ears still retained the tactile sensation and warmth of Ye Ge's breath...

She never imagined that Ye Ge would want to do such a thing to her while she was unconscious!

As expected, this human is a scoundrel!

Ye Ge chuckled softly: "What, not pretending to be unconscious anymore?"

Princess Emilia was stunned: "You...you knew all along that I was faking fainting?"

"if not?"

"..."

Emilia looked very embarrassed.

"You don't have to tease me like that!"

"Who told you to pretend when you were clearly awake?" Ye Ge said coldly. "Tell me, why were you faking unconsciousness?"

"I..." Emilia didn't dare to tell the truth and said softly, "I...I didn't mean to fake fainting, I just woke up..."

"Oh? Is that so?" Night Song raised an eyebrow, scrutinizing Emilia with a critical gaze.

Princess Emilia looked guilty and avoided his gaze.

Ye Ge remained silent for a while, as if she understood something.

"I see." Night Song: "So, you must have overheard what I was saying to Old Deng Qinglong, right?"

Emilia: (⊙﹏⊙)......

"I see..." Ye Ge gave her a deep look, then paused. "The secret has been overheard, which is really bad... So what should we do now..."

Princess Emilia quickly replied, "I will pretend I didn't hear anything! I absolutely will not utter a word about what just happened!"

“But I don’t trust you.” Night Song chuckled. “Old Deng Qinglong, what do you say?”

Qinglong was silent for a while, seemingly understanding Yege's meaning as well. Then, his old and deep voice came: "If the secret is discovered, the safest way to prevent it from being spread is to silence it."

To silence... to cover it up!?

Emilia's face turned deathly pale.

"To silence her?" Ye Ge said, "However, she is a princess of the Holy Elf Clan. Killing her would cause some trouble for the imperial court."

Qinglong Laodeng: "The Imperial Mausoleum Palace is a forbidden area for the human race. Guests from all races are not allowed to enter. No matter what the outcome is today, the Holy Elf race is in the wrong. Besides, so many people from all races have died here tonight, so one more won't make a difference. As long as you are clean and don't leave her scent on your hands after you kill her, no one will know that you did it."

“That makes sense. Anyway, no one knows whether she died from a trap in the underground palace or from murder.” Ye Ge nodded: “Yeah, let’s just silence her.”

"Hey! Don't you have any conscience?!" Emilia said angrily, "We were teammates just now! We even worked together!"

Ye Ge chuckled: "What are teammates? I was just teammates with that village of the Sunwheel Clan. It was all just mutual exploitation. As the royal family of the Holy Elf Clan and a powerful Saint Realm expert, Your Highness, surely you understand this basic principle?"

"I...I..." Emilia was speechless.

It's clear he's completely terrified.

She never imagined that Ye Ge had such a terrifying background.

Being able to chat and laugh with the ancient sacred beast Azure Dragon...

They even dared to speak disrespectfully to the supreme gods...

Just who is this human?

"Then...then what can I do to make you believe me..." Princess Emilia's eyes were wet, and she looked like she was about to cry at any moment.

"Trust you...?" Ye Ge's eyes darted around, and after thinking for a moment, she said, "Unless you can make me completely trust you."

"Then what will it take for you to feel at ease?"

"For example, sign a soul contract with me."

"Soul Contract..."

Emilia bit her lip.

The Holy Elf race also has assassins, so she certainly knows what a soul contract is.

Once the contract is signed, one can no longer betray the other party. Any request made by the other party must be obeyed unconditionally. If even a thought of betrayal or harming the other party arises, even just a thought, the soul will suffer severe punishment and torment! At best, one will be demoted; at worst, the soul will be annihilated! Both body and soul will be destroyed!

Signing a soul contract is indeed the best way to guarantee no betrayal.

but......

“I am the princess of the Holy Elf Kingdom. If I sign a soul contract with you, and you later force me to do something that betrays the Holy Elf Kingdom, or even harms my father and my people, wouldn’t I be unable to resist?”

Princess Emilia bit her lip: "If that's the case, then you might as well just kill me!" After saying that, she closed her eyes and let Night Song do as she pleased.

Night Song Laughs.

"I didn't realize you had such backbone." Night Song: "Don't worry, it's not that bad. Soul Contract Scrolls are divided into several tiers. In the end, this thing is a contract, not just a contract for assassins."

With that, Night Song took out a bundle of contract scrolls, floated them in the air, quickly wrote her name on them with her finger, and then tossed them to Emilia: "Here, sign it."

Emilia paused for a moment, picked up the scroll from the ground, and opened it to take a look.

"Master-Servant Contract Scroll..."

Emilia blushed upon seeing the scroll's title and said shyly, "This contract is used by the maids and servants of your Night family, isn't it?!"

“Yes.” Ye Ge nodded naturally: “But only some of the higher-ranking maids, such as the personal servants who often serve my mother, who are always by my side and occasionally overhear some secret conversations... Some of the lower-ranking maids who are responsible for cleaning toilets don’t even have the opportunity to sign a contract.”

“You…” Emilia was very embarrassed.

This soul contract is a completely weakened version of the death squad contract.

While the restrictions weren't as severe, obedience to the "master" was still essential...

For example, you cannot have any thoughts of harming your master, you cannot do anything detrimental to your master, and you cannot reveal any secrets about your master...

Moreover, if her master makes any request, she must obey unconditionally as long as it is within her power.

And one must never be disrespectful to one's master...

But she, the most noble princess of the Holy Elf Kingdom, an elf with the highest bloodline, is now being forced to sign a maid contract and swear an oath to become a human's maid...

This is so embarrassing!
