Actually, Shafne had already guessed Sean's suggestion.
She knew that Shien would suggest transferring the curse to him.
This was one of the reasons why Shafne didn't want to reveal this method. She believed that Sean would make such a suggestion.
In the end, Shien did not disappoint her.
"If it's me, even if I'm cursed, I can use the holy sword to dispel it." Shien said, "So, you don't have to worry about the curse causing trouble for me."
Shafne had only just heard Sean's words, and she subconsciously rejected it.
"But have you thought about it? Before you dispel the curse, you might die from it first." She looked straight at Shien and said, "This is a curse that is connected to the Rippling Heart Devil. Even if you have a skill to resist debuffs, it will be bypassed."
In other words, Shien's Life of Rido would not be able to resist the curse. He would have to bear all of the curse's power, and it would not weaken in the slightest.
"The Rippling Heart Devil will bypass even the protection of the holy sword. If you do this, you will have to bear the curse for hundreds of years with your mortal body. Are you sure you can bear it?"
She looked at Shien with a solemn expression.
After all, Shien was still a human with a mortal body. He was not like Demons, who were born with strong bodies and special constitutions, let alone demons.
Even Chafine had almost collapsed from the curse. Sean, a human with a mortal body, might have died on the spot the moment he was cursed.
"I don't want to be hated by little Ai Yi for the rest of my life, and I don't want to owe you for the rest of my life." She stared straight at Shien and said word by word, "I personally don't want to use the second method."
That was indeed what Shafne was thinking.
Rather than owe Shien such a huge favor and let him bear such a huge risk, she would rather hide until reinforcements arrived and scare the enemy.
But Shien would not make such a suggestion casually.
"Please, I'm not seeking my own death. Since I'm making this suggestion, I'm naturally confident that I can resist the curse."
Shien said calmly.
"Confident?" Chafne was not convinced. Instead, she immediately asked, "What makes you so sure?"
This time, it was Sean's turn to be speechless in the face of Chafine's aggressive questioning.
Shafne did not compromise and continued to stare straight at Shien.
Clearly, Chafnie was trying her best to read Sean's mind, hoping to see through him and not be deceived by his flowery words.
Unfortunately, Shien was serious.
"Why …?"
Sean closed his eyes for a moment, then opened them abruptly and said.
"Based on the fact that the blessing I received was bestowed by the Overgod."
When these words rang out in the cave, the air suddenly fell silent.
The expression on Chafne's face suddenly changed, and she stood up abruptly.
"What … What did you say?"
Chafine's face was filled with astonishment, even horror.
But this was the truth.
"The blessing I received was bestowed by the supreme god, the highest level of blessing from the Protoss. It is above the world and has all the effects of the Protoss's blessings. Even transcendent existences cannot reach this level of power."
Shien revealed the truth in front of Shafne.
"With this blessing, it is equivalent to being blessed and protected by the world itself. Under such circumstances, I don't believe that a mere few hundred years of curse can kill me, the blessing of the supreme god."
This was where Shien's confidence came from.
So what if [Rito's Mandate] could not take effect?
So what if the Holy Sword's protection could be bypassed?
With the blessing of the supreme god and the protection of the world, Shien believed that he was at least a very lucky person.
So, even if he could not directly dispel the curse, he could still endure the curse for a while and give himself a chance to dispel the curse. The blessing from the supreme god should still be effective to this extent, right?
"If you don't believe me, you can read my mind." Shien spread his arms and said with a smile that did not seem like a smile, "I can let you see if I'm lying."
Shafne bit her lip, unable to conceal the wavering in her eyes.
"The blessing of the supreme god …"
What's going on?
Why would the blessing of the supreme god appear on this hero?
Didn't the Overgod go into seclusion and enter a near-eternal slumber?
Why would he still give others a blessing?
When did this happen?
What's going on?
Isn't the only person who can receive the blessing of the supreme god since ancient times, the legendary first hero that only the Demon King and the supreme god have seen?
Why would it appear on Shien?
Don't tell me that the supreme god has already woken up …?
Shafne could not help but think of this possibility.
"Alright, don't let your imagination run wild." Shien interrupted Shafne's thoughts and said straightforwardly, "Although the blessing on me is bestowed by the supreme god, I am not the one who personally bestowed it. This is the result of other reasons."
The supreme god had added a mechanism to the Great Arcana of the Hero Summoning so that when the Protoss encountered a disaster, they could sacrifice the Arcana of the Hero Summoning and summon the last hero in the world.
Once this mechanism was activated, not only would the Hero Summoning be completely useless, but the summoned hero would also receive the blessing of the supreme god and would be able to use the world's blessing to turn the tide.
Chafine knew about this as well.
For tens of thousands of years, the Demons had been researching the Hero Summoning. As the second demon to be born and the second most powerful person among the Demons, Shafne naturally understood the Hero Summoning.
Now, hearing Shien's words, Shafne could not help but let her imagination run wild.
"Could it be that this is the reason why he was summoned to this world?"
But that was not right.
When did the Protoss encounter a disaster to the point where they had to sacrifice the Hero Summoning to summon the last hero?
Moreover, since he received the blessing of the supreme god, did that mean that the appearance of the red jade was also related to this?
After all, that jade should have been in the hands of the supreme god.
Shafne fell into a state of confusion.
"Still thinking about it?" Shien was speechless for a while before saying, "Don't think about it. Hurry up and start. With the blessing, I can withstand the corrosion of the curse and purify it with the holy sword."
Shien urged.
"… Even if that's the case, what about the connection?" Shafne was silent for a while before saying in a low voice, "Don't forget, you haven't fallen for me like the others, to the point where you're willing to die for me. This way, if the connection isn't strong enough, the curse won't be able to be transferred."
"This …" Shien could not refute this.
He really could not refute this.
At the end of the day, although he and Shafne had a few very absurd and wonderful nights, that was all.
Excluding this accident, Shien had only known Shafne for about a week.
Moreover, he had been resisting Shafne's charm and not letting himself fall for her. In Shien's heart, Shafne's position was not very high.
At the very least, compared to Rosie, Ai Yi, Tierre, Merica, and the others, Shafne definitely could not compare.
Since that was the case, there was no need to mention that she would be willing to die for him.
It was an undeniable fact that Shien did not value Shafne to this extent.
If they were in a real crisis, Shien believed that he could still stay behind and use his own life as the price to buy a chance for Shafne to escape.
But this was because of a strange combination of circumstances between the two of them, not because of how much Sean loved Chafine.
Normally, Shien would not be infatuated with Shafne to the point where he would die for her.
In summary, even if Shien was willing to bear the curse, the Rippling Heart Devil might not work.
"The connection …"
Shien murmured. Suddenly, he raised his eyes and looked at Shafne.
"What … what are you doing?"
Shafne's expression became somewhat unnatural.
Because she saw too many things in Shien's eyes that she should not see.
There was burning.
There was evil.
There was infatuation.
This made Shafne immediately understand.
"You're letting yourself fall in love with me …?"
Shafne's voice also became timid.
Shien did not say anything and only walked towards Shafne.
Chaffnie subconsciously took a step back, and her heart began to tremble.
This was because of the Rippling Heart Devil's power.
Perhaps sensing Shien's thoughts, Shafne's Rippling Heart Devil began to take effect. Through Shafne's impression of Shien, it began to affect her heart.
Two nights ago, Shafne had become unable to resist Shien because of this.
Now that Shien was obviously planning something, it was understandable that the Rippling Heart Devil would make Shafne unable to resist.
Shafne began to panic.
"You … you're not planning to do something to me in a place like this, are you?"
Chavigne was as frightened as any other girl.
If an outsider were to see this, they would definitely be taken aback.
But Shien ignored her and only forced Shafne into a corner. When she had nowhere to retreat, he reached out and grabbed her slender shoulder.
Shafne trembled, her heart racing.
Under such circumstances, Shien spoke with a serious expression.
"Speak."
Shien spoke.
"Say … say what?"
Shafne froze.
Shien spoke in an unquestionable tone.
"Say you love me."
Shien's expression was extremely serious.
"Huh?"
Shafne's mouth fell open.
For a moment, Shafne even thought that Shien was joking.
But Shien was clearly not.
"Flatter me, seduce me, and make me fall."
Shien looked straight at Shien, the corners of his mouth curling up.
"Even if it's only temporary, let me fall in love with you.
"Come.
"Let me see what you're capable of as a succubus.
