A Villain's Way of Taming Heroines

Chapter 170: Puppet Repairer Ansel - II

Mechanical armor...

She sighed inwardly.

So it was just mechanical armor. Hydral hadn't gone completely mad after all.

Even amidst her intense pain, Ravenna felt a profound sense of relief at this moment.

As long as the design of the universal ether furnace wasn't so easily handed over to the Etheric Academy, Ravenna could accept it.

So just now...

The woman's head hung to one side due to her neck nearly being completely twisted by Seraphina. With her eyes already open, she stared intently at the blurred profile not far away.

Just now, was it a deliberate act to force me to lose control?

Ravenna, who had calmed down, quickly realized that she had fallen into Hydral's trap after a long time.

It could be said to be her only weakness, long unseen, once again controlled by Hydral. It was not surprising.

There was no shame, no anger, no impatience. In such a dire situation, Ravenna quickly came to terms with reality.

From the moment you returned to the imperial capital to the performance just now, everything was just a prelude to my breakdown... You've been planning this for a long time, Hydral.

You don't need me — you keep emphasizing this, what effect do you think it will have? Do you really think that I am dependent on you, that without you I am nothing, that after being "abandoned" by you, I will become a frightened dog?

Hydral, your arrogance... is as always.

After dissecting the real purpose of today's visit, which was covered up by Ansel layer by layer, Ravenna felt neither complacency nor joy.

Because the fact has been done, although she will never succumb to him, her current situation is definitely under Hydral's deliberate plan.

The soul...

Ravenna felt this body, which was at best above average among all her puppets, and her spirit was heavy.

For extraordinary beings, the soul... is the real life.

In the spacious carriage, Seraphina disdainfully tossed Ravenna's body onto the floor.

"The entire walk here, I had to endure that grating sound from her neck. It was quite uncomfortable, Ansel."

Ansel couldn't help but chuckle, "Isn't it you who broke Ravenna's neck?"

"She dared to attempt to assassinate you... even though she had no chance of success."

Seraphina curled her lip, "It irked me. It's not like it's her real body, so what if I broke it? Ansel, why did you bring her back?"

"If I hadn't, our genius lady would have died on the streets."

Ansel placed Ravenna's body on the opposite seat, leisurely saying, "Even though I don't need her anymore, she is a rare talent. Her death would be a great loss to the empire's future."

Seraphina knew that Ansel had already started to tame Ravenna, but she had no idea what Ansel wanted to do. To avoid disturbing Ansel, she could only try her best to suppress the urge to say something and stay quiet.

Even so, the young girl who possessed the power of two pact heads still couldn't help but glare at Ravenna's puppet body.

This guy, does she really have any abilities?

As far as I can see, apart from making puppets, she doesn't have any other abilities? Or is it those floating iron lumps around her?

Must be joking, those things wouldn't even be hot enough for my bath.

Well... the most she could do is make bigger puppets, or more iron lumps...?

Seraphina thought disdainfully: I can easily kill such a large snake, no matter how big your puppet is, can it be bigger than that thing?

Hmm, what's the use of such a large puppet, to get beaten up?

Comparing them, a sense of pride welled up in Miss Seraphina's heart —

I am indeed, Ansel's strongest pact head!
