Chapter 317: Cassandra Drained Everyone

Some time later, Damian finally opened his eyes. The first thing he felt was soreness, and the second was humiliation.

He rubbed his face and cursed under his breath. "Goddammit... Although I finally did it with her, how the hell was she even more vicious than Violetta?"

Damian remembered how his first night with Violetta had gone. Although she had been vicious, it was mainly because he had been the one playing rough with her, and he had still managed to handle her for the entire night.

Cassandra, on the other hand, had been the one who took the lead and directly sucked him dry, leaving him unable to handle her for even an hour.

Damian sighed even harder. "Now this is some bullshit. How am I supposed to show my face now that the other four have already seen how badly I got beaten?"

He unconsciously glanced to the side and instantly froze.

Cassandra was lying beside him, staring back with a satisfied grin. But she wasn’t what made Damian’s blood run cold.

Scattered around her were Linsey, Helena, Cynthia, and Evelyn, all lying completely unconscious across the bed.

They were naked, utterly drained, and looked as if they had been completely worn out.

Damian stared at the scene for several seconds before slowly turning toward Cassandra. "You weren’t satisfied with me, so you went after my entire fucking harem too?"

Cassandra’s grin immediately widened. "Hehehe..."

Damian’s eye twitched. "Don’t fucking ’hehehe’ me."

He pointed toward the four unconscious women. "I pass out for a while and wake up to this? Seriously, Cassandra, what the hell happened to you?"

Cassandra sat up lazily, completely unbothered by his glare. "A lot happened to me, Damian. You already know that."

Damian pointed at her body. "That still doesn’t explain why you suddenly became this fucking shameless."

Cassandra laughed again as she reached for her clothes. "Maybe I was always like this deep down."

Damian frowned. "No. You definitely fucking weren’t."

She slipped her robes back on and tied them neatly around her waist before glancing toward the sleeping women.

"Either way, stop whining. They’re fine. Just completely exhausted. After all, I did play quite hard with them."

Damian looked at Linsey, Helena, Cynthia, and Evelyn again before letting out a long sigh.

"Fucking great. Apparently, not only did I become your victim, but my entire harem did too."

Cassandra’s grin sharpened. "Victim?"

Damian immediately raised a hand. "Forget I said that."

Her smile widened. "Smart."

She stood up and stretched lazily. "Come on. Let’s talk outside. There’s no point arguing in here. We’ll just wake them up."

Damian gave her one last suspicious look before pulling a fresh set of robes from his storage ring.

He quickly changed, tightened his belt, and followed Cassandra toward the door.

Before leaving, Damian glanced back at the four exhausted women one last time.

"Goddammit... just what the hell did that demonic rebirth turn her into?"

Cassandra stepped outside first, still carrying that unsettling grin.

Damian followed close behind.

Whatever had happened during her rebirth, it was finally time for him to hear the truth.

---

Once they were outside, Damian finally stopped walking and crossed his arms. "Alright. Enough fucking around. Just tell me what the hell happened to you."

Cassandra looked at him for a moment before her usual crazed grin faded slightly. "It’s simple. The [Demonic Queen’s Blood-Birth Festival] didn’t just rebuild my body. It created Blood Demon Qi inside me and corrupted part of my personality along with it."

Damian frowned. "Corrupted?"

Cassandra nodded. "You know the version of me you met before? Cold, elegant, quiet, always keeping everything under control? Even the version of me people knew as kind and caring toward others?"

Damian nodded. "Yeah."

Cassandra tapped her own chest. "That was the real me too. But do you know what I was actually like deep inside?"

Damian raised an eyebrow.

Cassandra laughed softly. "Do you really think someone can be oppressed by her own family for years, betrayed by her fiancé, treated like a tool, and still remain completely normal?"

Her crimson-black eyes sharpened. "Deep down, Damian... I was already a little fucking crazy."

Damian went silent.

Cassandra continued, "The Blood Demon Qi didn’t create that part of me. It just dragged it out, amplified it, and swallowed most of the other shells you knew and heard about."

She spread her arms with a grin. "So now you get this version of me."

Damian stared at her.

Cassandra stepped closer and poked him in the chest. "But don’t misunderstand. I’m still Cassandra."

Her grin widened. "The same Cassandra you tricked with your fake death... twice."

Damian coughed awkwardly. "Okay, okay. I fucking get it."

Cassandra laughed.

Damian sighed before looking her over again. "Still... I already have two cold women in my life."

Cassandra raised an eyebrow.

Damian continued, "My master is cold as hell, and Evelyn is basically an ice block with a bow."

He shrugged. "So honestly? You becoming something completely different isn’t that bad."

Cassandra blinked.

Damian grinned. "In fact, you’re the first woman around me who’s this fucking crazy."

Cassandra’s smile instantly returned in full force. "Good."

Damian pointed at her. "That wasn’t exactly a compliment."

Cassandra tapped her chest with one finger. "Doesn’t matter. To me, all those versions of myself were always the same person."

Damian sighed. "Of course they were."

Cassandra chuckled before suddenly changing the subject. "Alright, enough about me. I want to hear about your disciples."

Damian looked at her, one eyebrow immediately rising. "How the hell do you know about them?"

Cassandra casually waved toward the house. "Your girls told me a little. Mostly that Nolan Veyr is one of the reasons you’re running."

Damian sighed. "Of course they did."

Cassandra crossed her arms. "They said the full story should come from you."

Damian rubbed his forehead before finally nodding. "Fine."

He looked off into the distance. "If you really want to know how Nolan became my problem... then I’ll tell you everything from the beginning."
