I Became the Demon King of Lust

When she felt me looking at her like this, the little girl couldn't help revealing a blush as she said, "If you keep looking at me like this, I'll feel embarrassed."

Being called out like this made me feel awkward, so I slowly turned away.

Though there was still that strange look in my eyes.

After giving a cough to calm myself down, I asked, "Is your ability a summoning ability? Was that what that cloaked figure was?"

The little girl shook her head before saying, "Illusion. My ability is creating illusions."

"Huh?" I couldn't help saying with a confused look.

I looked at the sahuagin corpses on the ground that had started disappearing before looking back at her with an even more confused look.

"Illusions? You're telling me that you did all of that with just illusions?" I said in an astonished voice.

The little girl couldn't help feeling a bit embarrassed with the way that I saw staring at her, so she lowered her head with a blush before giving a slight nod.

"How?" That was the only thing that I could say when I saw this.

She didn't say anything at first, but then she slowly said, "My ability is called Illusion World. It gives me the ability to create illusions around me with magic, which was what that cloaked appearance was. I wanted to create an appearance that was scary like a death god so that people wouldn't do anything to me…"

She kept going on to explain why she had taken the form that she had taken.

I let her go on at first since I thought that it would eventually stop, but that didn't seem to be the case.

This little girl seemed like the shy type at first, but when something got her started…she really didn't stop.

In the end, I could only give a cough to stop her before she kept going forever.

The little girl realized that she had been rambling, so she stopped with a blush on her face.

I just got us back on topic by asking, "So how does your illusion ability allow you to do something like this?" At that, I pointed at the sahuagin corpses…or rather the drops that had been left on the ground since the sahuagin corpses had disappeared.

It was a good thing that they did since the smell was also starting to get to me.

The little girl just calmly said, "If you believe it's true, it will happen to you. That's how I use my illusion to affect people."

My chin dropped when I heard this.

If you believe it's true, it will happen…

This wasn't a light statement.

It seemed like she didn't recognize just how powerful her ability could be…

If one believed in something, then it would be real.

If she created an illusion that broke the fundamental laws of the world, then would it also come true if one believed in it?

Did that mean that if she created gold with her illusion and people believed in it, it would also become real?

Or if she decided that gravity no longer existed, would it disappear?

I'm sure that there would be limitations to this power, but this was clearly a power that could be used to destroy the world if it was used inappropriately. If it was used properly, then one could easily take over the world…

I really couldn't help looking at this little girl with a strange look after hearing this and all she could do was look away with an embarrassed look.

After thinking for a bit, I reached out my hand and said, "Can you give me your hand for a bit?"

The blush on the little girl's face became a bit brighter when she heard this.

She looked down at my hand and said, "Isn't this a bit too forward? We've just met and…"

She started muttering all kinds of different things after this.

It seemed that she had misunderstood something, but she still put her hand in my hand in the end.

I didn't explain anything and just pretended that I didn't hear anything as I focused on her hand.

During my training, I learned many different things.

I didn't just work my body with Su Chen, but also learned other things that were taught to me by Elementia.

That included the ability to sense mana.

I was currently using that ability to sense the mana inside of this little girl's body.

The moment that I did, I couldn't help knitting my brows.

That was because I could feel the raging mana inside of this little girl.

She had stores of mana that were even comparable to what Bing Lan, a S Ranker would have. She just wasn't able to control this large amount of mana well enough that she was able to do anything with it.

But in the future…

I looked at the little girl with an astonished expression, but she just said, "It's embarrassing if you look at me like this while holding my hand."

I realized my mistake and let go of her hand, though it did seem like she was a bit disappointed when I did. this chapter is mv|le|mp|y r

But with this, I had figured out the mystery of why the monsters kept chasing her.

It was because they were all attracted to the large amount of mana that she had.

Monsters would evolve and grow stronger if they obtained more mana and her mana was the perfect food for them, so of course they would be attracted to her.

They wanted that mana that was inside of her for their own benefit.

Taking a deep breath, I said, "We should move away from here before more monsters show up."

The little girl gave a nod, but she hesitated in moving.

I looked at her with one brow raised and asked, "Is something wrong?"

She slowly shook her head, but she still didn't move. That was until she said, "I don't even know your name yet."

I was surprised by this, but I realized that she was right.

Neither of us had introduced ourselves yet.

So I calmly said, "My name is Lin Fan and you are?"

The little girl looked at me with a shy smile and said, "Long Shui Ling."
