Reincarnated and Regressed Villain - Make heroines beg for forgiveness - Chapter 272

Chapter 272: Chapter 272- Night time
‘Analyse this’, Gazing at the moonlit sky from the balcony of their wooden house, which was shared by both Ryuk and Esme, Ryuk asked a question after a long day spent touring the Wei family estate. He stood near the railing, pulling out a wooden box with a soft fabric covering from his inventory.

The box he held was the same one that Demon Queen Morana had given him, carrying a strong aphrodisiac. At that time, he had stored it to preserve the energy signatures to trace them, but with several things in the way, he didn’t get the chance to analyze it.

[ Analyzing….]

DING!

━─━───────༺༻───────━─━

Energy found: concentrated remnants of demonic energy detected.

Searching for energy signatures

There are more than 300 energy signatures detected around the world, which match the similarity by 99.23%

━─━───────༺༻───────━─━

‘What? 300?’ Hearing the system’s voice, Ryuk turned his gaze towards the window to see that the energy signatures were detected in 300 different locations.

Naturally, every person has unique energy signatures, just like how fingerprints, tongue marks, etc., are unique, but considering that in this world there are creatures who can copy one’s appearance, like doppelgangers and so on, even copying to the point at the molecular level, it was not hard for them to replicate someone’s fingerprints or different marks, which is also true for energy signatures.

But achieving that requires extremely high accuracy and control over one’s own energy, far enough to match the frequency, wavelengths, and tendencies of one’s own energy all the time.

[ Yes Host, all the energy signatures are coming from different sources, making it hard to pinpoint an exact location.]

Hearing the system’s report, Ryuk did not doubt its authenticity, but since he had no way to confirm it, it was slightly confusing because there was only one person he had seen with that intense amount of accuracy and control over their energy—Drishti Devereaux.

Though it was also possible that some species with a natural trait of high efficiency could achieve it, it was clear that this aphrodisiac was given by the demon queen, and for her to do this was confusing in itself, considering that demonic energy is highly volatile and slowly corrupts a user’s mind, preventing them from ever achieving a threshold where they could claim to have complete control over their own energy.

‘Try to match energy signatures from any earlier individual whom we have ever encountered till now,’ Ryuk commanded, referring to the energy signatures that the system was constantly collecting since the moment he woke up in Ardoros to increase its database, while also adding precautions to not lose those connections, just like what happened after it went into sleep mode for five years.

[ Searching…]

DING!

[ Host, match detected. It’s identical to Priest Kermit we encountered on Titanora. ]

‘I see.’ Hearing the system’s response, Ryuk slightly leaned on the railing while looking towards the vast sky, his mind placing all the pieces together.

From the start, where the Demon Queen was behind the curse that was spread in Titanora, Ryuk found an ugly-looking flesh lump, identified as Priest Kermit.

Now, Ryuk detected that the energy signature on the gift, which the demon queen gave him, had been scattered in 300 different locations, with each having the same energy signature as this box.

‘Demon queen is really a queen for a reason.’ Ryuk closed his eyes and smiled slightly, clearly understanding that Priest Kermit had been cut into 300 pieces, while somehow the demon queen kept him alive, scattering him in 300 different locations.

It wasn’t hard for Ryuk to understand that her main intention was to accomplish two things:

The first was to spread that curse or disease across several low-level continents in hopes of farming demonic energy, which she could absorb from the cursed dead bodies of different individuals to make herself stronger.

Secondly, she aimed to avoid being traced back to her exact location by some strong individual who could find her using the energy signature. Therefore, she cautiously calibrated all of the energy signatures to be the same as hers, creating a camouflage.

“Are you not going to sleep?” Pulling him out of his thoughts was a soft womanly voice coming from behind his ears as Esme whispered, causing Ryuk to slightly tilt his head and tap her head lightly.

“What’s with that dress?” Turning his head towards Esme, Ryuk noticed her wearing a white lace, thin fabric nightgown with flowery borders sticking tightly to her skin while revealing her curvy self.

Added with the moonlight that was falling on her milky white skin, her deep golden eyes simmering like a pool of gold, fixed on him as she intensely looked at him while slowly stretching her hand towards his face.

“What are you doing?” Ryuk once again inquired, seeing how she just took off his face mask, causing his face to be completely revealed as his straw hat was also blown away by the breeze, uncovering his black hair fluttering along with the night while his eyes, with a raised brow, looked at Esme.

thump thump

‘I can’t die like this!’ Esme cried out in her heart as, while maintaining an impassive look using her illusions, her eyes reflected the most beautiful sight, which tingled the strings of her heart.

The situation was more dire for her, considering that for a person in love, they find their partner more attractive and charming. But the major issue was that her partner was already at the limit she could consider godly.

“Don’t move,” Esme mumbled with a voice hardly above a whisper, as she stretched her hand towards his robe. She pulled him, and due to the strength of his body, instead of him, she got pulled and collided with him.

‘Damn it, control yourself.’ Esme kept looking at him as she lifted her hand and cleared off slight dampness near her lips, which appeared to betray her present situation in front of the man she was really in love with.

[ She is hungry, Host. Did you see that saliva! RUN! ⊙⁠﹏⁠⊙ ]

“Esme? Can you at least tell me what happened?” Ryuk lifted his hand and held her hair locks while slightly caressing them, looking calmly at her, knowing that she wasn’t intoxicated by some alcohol nor did she appear to have ingested anything, making him feel confused due to her actions.

“They were looking at you all the time,” Esme once again mumbled as she looked blankly at Ryuk, who tilted his head while waiting for her to clarify the situation.

“Exactly who?” he inquired, keeping his surveillance around the area as they were in the open.

“Those women were ogling at you all the time,” Esme informed, her voice turning cold as she remembered those women in robes who kept looking in their direction constantly when she was doing the tour of the Wei family. Her voice was serious, and her face showed a genuinely annoyed expression.

“Pfft…I mean, I see.” Seeing her face like that for a moment, Ryuk chuckled before controlling himself since it could be a serious matter for her. Clearing his throat, he inquired, “Then, what do you want to do about that then?”

“Sigh,” Esme tried to control her anger toward those women before gripping Ryuk’s black robe. She tried to pull it two or three times before firmly declaring, “Remove your clothes, now!”

“Huh?”

[ Host, should I activate the birth control feature since I can bet this will lead to fuck—ERROR! ]
