Ha.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Crouched, trying to hide among a pile of sprouting potatoes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elizabeth sneered, mocking:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Isn’t that ridiculous?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He was a monster too. He had coldly taken our family, ruled the land for centuries with terror and bloodshed…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yet this brutal monster became timid and harmless the moment he faced a stronger, fiercer, more terrifying monster.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s utterly absurd!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you know? When I found him, I didn’t feel pleasure—I felt profound… boredom.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elizabeth’s expression grew cold, her tone listless:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“After that, I lost interest in playing hide-and-seek with him. I let him flee for a while, then ended his life.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing this unremarkable story, Elizabeth lifted her head and looked at the thoughtful boy before her, calmly saying:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So, if you ask how I felt when I killed him, I can only tell you—boredom.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elizabeth’s answer was now complete.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Herbert stopped asking. She didn’t urge him further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She didn’t know why he had asked such a question, nor what he had endured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wouldn’t ask. Nor did she need to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their relationship hadn’t reached that point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She answered only because she felt a flicker of sympathy—seeing in him a kindred soul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for how Herbert would choose—to become a patricide like her, or to spare him—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had nothing to do with her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment, Herbert nodded and murmured, “Miss Elizabeth, thank you for answering my question.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I think I have my answer.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elizabeth fell silent, then let out a scoff and waved dismissively: “Bah, don’t flatter yourself. Hand over your blood!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The heavy atmosphere vanished instantly. Elizabeth tilted her head high, shouting at Herbert for her payment:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Blood! Ten drops… no, fifty! A hundred!!!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hiked up the price on the spot, brazenly inflating the cost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tide has turned, kid!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now it’s my turn to make you suffer!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more she thought of it, the more delighted she became, unable to suppress her laughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hahaha, xixixi, hehehe, jiejiejie…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She let out a cackling laugh, giddy with triumph: “I don’t just want ordinary blood—I want your… that sacred blood you made!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You want sacred blood?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Herbert blinked, tilting his head in confusion. “Do you think you’re too comfortable?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Herbert wasn’t surprised by her price hike—he’d already anticipated it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, he initiated this deal precisely to let her make a small profit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Losing all the time won’t keep anyone hooked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A mix of wins and losses, small gains and big losses, so she believes “the advantage is mine!”—that’s how you lure in the retail investors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now she’s gone so far as to demand sacred blood!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’s lost all sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was something Herbert never expected…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hey!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The retail investors want to eat glyphosate. How original!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then again, maybe not so original… there are countless records of this in past news.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You don’t understand!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Completely intoxicated, Elizabeth tossed her silver-gray hair, grinning smugly: “The taste is completely different!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your blood is delicious, but sacred blood carries an extra, peculiar flavor!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“When you drink it, your throat feels gritty, like swallowing a whole bottle of high-proof liquor—intensely stimulating, even with a pricking pain!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Recalling the sensation, a strange flush rose on her face as she shifted uncomfortably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That feeling… Ha!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So~~~ good!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I was too weak back then to withstand your sacred blood. Now I’ve recovered—I’m no longer afraid of it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She snapped out of her reverie, glaring with beautiful eyes like a mischievous girl: “Give it to me! Hand over your blood now!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Herbert blinked, hesitated not at all. Sacred blood wasn’t hard to produce. If she wanted it, he’d give it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He drew his sword, sliced his palm, and the sacred mark glowed as droplets of luminous blood fell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching Elizabeth open her mouth wide, greedy and excited, Herbert narrowed his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The way she’s acting… it makes me want to shove something strange into her mouth… too bad I don’t have pepper on me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Maybe next time… hmm?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Herbert was thinking of preparing various spices later, he suddenly noticed Elizabeth looked terribly off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hss! Ha—hss! Ha—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her face flushed crimson, her blood-red eyes trembled, her tongue hissed uncontrollably, beads of cold sweat formed on her brow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked… yes!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like his Cantonese friend who’d first eaten a barely spicy red oil hotpot and then rinsed it with water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ha! This is the feeling!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So~~~ good!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wait, bro?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What the hell are you doing?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Are you using me as chili powder?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Herbert felt oddly offended, and immediately pulled his hand back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even after he withdrew, Elizabeth kept hissing and gasping for a long while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment, Herbert looked at Elizabeth, who now looked perfectly fine, and asked his final question:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Have you ever regretted it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Regret?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elizabeth arched an eyebrow, smirking wickedly: “I never regret.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Herbert nodded, sighing: “Yes, you won’t regret it—and no one can judge or punish you. I understand.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mm. Not even the gods.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elizabeth: ???\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her proud expression collapsed instantly. She panicked:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How do you know this?! Where did you hear this?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who told you?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Elizabeth, completely thrown, frantically demanded answers, a figure appeared between them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",972,"2026-06-20T12:31:06.198Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","4e7b324f3220d4544f38430eff8a13a7a40da35730623a8a7ab36d439fd5336d","an-improper-monster-girl-s-transformation-diary-chapter-74","an-improper-monster-girl-s-transformation-diary-chapter-72",453,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fan-improper-monster-girl-s-transformation-diary-cover.jpg"]
