The Dragon's Pact: A Princess for the Flame

Chapter 53 – The Death of Mesent

"Oh! Lovely Miss Gōgōko, it's my honor!"

Master Mesent nearly had his eyes pop out as he gazed at Gōgōko, dressed in a sheer nightgown, her figure alluring and seductive.

His mouth was slightly open, panting heavily.

He felt like he was capable once again.

Just a tiny bit more!

"Master~"

"I haven't seen you all day, I missed you so much~"

"What magic would you like to teach me today?"

Gōgōko spoke as she smiled charmingly, settling into Master Mesent's lap.

Her gentle hands weren't idle either, drawing circles lightly on Mesent's chest.

"Ma... magic, teach..."

Master Mesent was boiling with excitement.

He was so flustered that he stuttered.

He impatiently leaned in to kiss Gōgōko's long, fair neck.

His eagerness was like a mad dog starved for days, suddenly spotting a fresh pile of dung.

"Ah~"

Gōgōko giggled.

She raised a small hand to cover Master Mesent's pig-like mouth.

Leaning slightly, her red lips neared Master Mesent's ear.

She exhaled softly and murmured:

"Master, it's so hot, why are we wearing so many clothes?"

"Gōgōko hasn't seen your strong physique yet~"

Oh! Emperor Xivi above!

Look at what lovely Miss Gōgōko just said!

Strong??

Is she complimenting my strength?

Mesent was overjoyed, nodding eagerly and smiling:

"Al... alright, okay, I'll take it off, I'll take it off!"

As he spoke, Mesent stood up, quickly shedding his mage robe.

Even his usual staff was tossed aside, leaving him in just his underwear, revealing his pale, plump, and bloated body.

He stood before Gōgōko, happily turning around to showcase his robust and healthy physique.

He even flexed his fat-covered muscles.

However, he didn't hear any cheers from Gōgōko.

Master Mesent looked up in confusion, only to see Gōgōko's indifferent face, devoid of expression.

She was a completely different person from the charming and tender woman just moments ago.

"Gōgōko, you..."

"Master Mesent, you're disgusting."

Gōgōko adjusted her clothes, sneering with disdain:

"Look at your body, aren't you just a maggot squirming on dung in a toilet?"

"And your mouth, it really stinks, like you've eaten a dead rat. How long has it been since you brushed your teeth?"

"Hah, and do you really think you're strong?"

"Not even a minute..."

Gōgōko paused, her lips curling into a contemptuous smile, and she spat out a word, emphasizing each syllable:

"Trash."

The final word were heavily emphasized by Gōgōko, like a sharp sword piercing into Master Mesent's heart.

Shattering his pride as a man.

"Outrageous, damn it..."

"Are you crazy? Do you know what you're saying?"

Master Mesent's face flushed red with anger and shame, his whole body trembling with rage.

"Trash, trash, trash, trash~"

Gōgōko mockingly stuck out her tongue, repeating the word "trash" in four different tones, successfully shattering Mesent's last bit of sanity.

He even forgot he was a mage.

He abandoned his most adept magic, instead charging straight at Gōgōko, reaching out with his fat hands to strangle her.

At that moment.

The door was kicked open from the outside.

The wooden door slammed against the wall with a loud "bang."

"Mesent, you old dog, stay away from my woman!"

Wemons roared with anger.

He charged in, sword in hand, pouncing on Mesent like a wolf, raising the hilt and striking Mesent's head repeatedly with a "thud, thud, thud."

He had no intention of holding back.

If he wasn't worried about hurting Gōgōko, he would have already used a Battle Aura slash to strike.

The Grand Knight's strength made Mesent see stars.

By the time he remembered his identity as a mage and prepared to chant a spell, Wemons' boot had already kicked him in the face.

Mesent groaned, sent flying, crashing into the wall, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

The blood mixed with his nosebleed, trickling down, looking utterly miserable.

"Sead-os-hutero..."

He shakily raised his hand, trying to conjure a lightning spell to zap Wemons.

But without his staff and robe's amplification.

He had no protective shield, and his chanting was slower, ultimately interrupted by Wemons' slap across his face.

His spellcasting was forcibly halted.

Mesent's face, already full of fat, now swelled visibly, bruised with blue and purple, resembling a bun smeared with dye.

"We... don't kill... don't kill me, the dragon..."

Wemons knew what the mage wanted to say.

It was nothing more than the king's mission to slay the dragon couldn't be completed without Mesent.

What a joke, even if the dragon was injured.

Even if it couldn't be killed, so what?

As one of the top warriors in the Kingdom of Anrius, would the king sentence him to death over this?

As long as he could be with Gōgōko, the black dragon could be dealt with if possible.

With this thought, Wemons was about to stab Master Mesent to death when Gōgōko's soft cry suddenly came from behind:

"Knight brother, don't!"

Wemons turned his head, looking at Gōgōko in confusion.

At this point, should they still spare the old mage?

Gōgōko sensed the doubt in Wemons' eyes and quickly waved her hand, explaining with a resentful expression:

"Knight brother, leave it to me... Although Gōgōko is scared, it's my first time killing someone, but I hate scum with filthy minds the most!"

"After all, you are a powerful knight, and as your woman, Gōgōko can't drag you down~"

Wemons admired Gōgōko even more upon hearing this.

What a wonderful girl!

Not only does she love learning and life, but she's also pure-hearted, brave in the face of adversity, and most importantly, courageous!

He was now completely satisfied with Gōgōko, handing her the sword without a second thought.

He even comforted her gently:

"Gōgōko, don't be afraid, close your eyes, thrust forward, and it'll all be over."

Playing the part to the end.

Of course, Gōgōko couldn't just casually stab Master Mesent to death.

She still needed Wemons' help.

She couldn't let him see through her act.

So she pretended to be scared.

Her eyes didn't dare open, her long lashes trembling.

She turned her face aside, her hands shaking as she held the sword, hesitating at Mesent's neck.

She couldn't stab it in for a long time.

Wemons saw Gōgōko's expression.

He thought, what a kind and innocent girl, she probably hasn't even killed a chicken.

Though it was cruel, as Gōgōko's man, he should help her make the choice at this moment.

With this in mind, Wemons gently embraced Gōgōko from behind, whispering in what he thought was a deep and magnetic voice by her ear:

"Gōgōko, let me help you."

"Shhh—"

The sword pierced Master Mesent's heart.

He clutched his chest, struggling, but it was futile.

More blood gushed out, and he made a "ho ho" whimpering sound, his body growing colder.

Master Mesent was dead.

A game system prompt suddenly popped up before Gōgōko's eyes:
