【Goddess's Headband】(inside):
This item can take the form of any kind of headband. When the Divine Maiden wears it while completing a mission, she gains an additional 30% bonus to her Humiliation Points.
If someone else obtains this item and uses it to bind the Divine Maiden's hands, she will lose all her abilities, and her physical capabilities will be reduced to those of an ordinary woman.
If the Divine Maiden uses this item herself while no one else is nearby, and binds her own hands with it, she will gain 500 Humiliation Points per hour. While she's bound by herself, if someone else approaches and touches the headband, it will count as that person binding the Divine Maiden.
……
After reading the headband's effects, Su Yun's pretty face flushed slightly.
Was this thing really designed to screw her over?
The bonus to her Humiliation Points was pretty good, at 30%. But what if someone else got the 【Goddess's Headband】 and happened to bind her hands with it……
Then she thought it over again.
It wasn't that easy. For one thing, if she was wearing the headband herself, it wouldn't be easy for someone else to get it.
And even if someone did get it, she wouldn't just stand there and let them tie her hands.
Besides, no one else knew that tying her hands with this thing would make her lose her ability to fight.
So the conditions were still pretty strict.
She could still wear the 【Goddess's Headband】 normally. It was just that last effect that made her blush and her heart race.
“If the Divine Maiden uses this item herself while no one else is nearby, and binds her own hands with it, she will gain 500 Humiliation Points per hour……”
……
Five hundred points an hour. If she stayed bound for a whole day, she'd get 12,000 Humiliation Points—more than she usually earned from her daily missions……
She remembered how it had felt before, with her hands tied, a ball gag shoved into her mouth, and herself tossed onto the bed.
Even now, she could still feel a faint dampness between her legs.
“I can't keep thinking about this.”
Su Yun used her water ability to splash herself with a ball of cold water.
She wasn't going to use that third function.
If she spent every day bound like that in the future, would she turn into a weirdo……
That said……
For the bonus to her Humiliation Points, she still tied the 【Goddess's Headband】 around the ends of her long hair.
With a thought……
A mirror of water appeared in front of her.
She turned to the side to check her reflection and found it looked pretty good. Her hair, which usually flew in every direction, was now gathered together at the ends.
Against her hair, dark as a waterfall, the red of the headband stood out brightly.
But when she remembered the headband's embarrassing effects, a suspicious blush spread across the pretty face reflected in the water mirror.
“Ding! Congratulations, Host. You resisted the temptation of a large amount of Humiliation Points and avoided entering an alternate ending outside the main storyline.”
“Main story continuation mission triggered.”
“Mission: Host, continue pretending that you're being kidnapped. Contact the main character, Chu Feng, and have him come rescue you. When he does, show him that you're weak and need protection. Complete the mission to receive 300,000 Humiliation Points.”
Su Yun read through it carefully.
After making sure there didn't seem to be any tricks, she accepted the mission.
At least she probably wouldn't be in any danger.
At most, she'd just have to let that brat Chu Feng “rescue” her one more time.
It wasn't like one more time would make a difference.
She opened WeChat.
【Su Xiaoyun'er】: Sent location.jpg
【Su Xiaoyun'er】: 3rd floor. Save me.
……
Soon, her phone rang. It was Chu Feng calling.
Of course, she didn't answer.
The man in black and two other underlings of Ding Kai's were still in the outermost living room.
She'd been “kidnapped.” Sending her location and typing a few words was already the most she could manage……
Anything more would look way too fake.
Now she just had to keep pretending she was being kidnapped.
What if she used the headband to tie herself up?
But then she thought better of it and shook her head sharply.
“No. Chu Feng might seem safer than that bastard Ding Kai, but I still can't let my guard down.”
If she tied her hands and Chu Feng touched the headband, she'd lose all her abilities.
If Chu Feng tried to do anything to her then, she wouldn't be able to resist at all.
Her previous interactions with Chu Feng had been embarrassing too.
But in the end, she'd still been the one in control. If she was determined to refuse, she could.
She absolutely couldn't put herself in a position where she had no way out.
……
So, to complete the main story mission, she'd have to think of another way to make herself look like she'd really been kidnapped.
She couldn't exactly stand here looking in a mirror and claim she'd been kidnapped……
In the end, she could only rummage through the box Ding Kai had brought and retrieve a chain and a pair of handcuffs. He'd been burned to ash, after all.
She cuffed herself, attached the chain, and hooked the other end up high.
There were hooks all over the room, along with pulleys and ropes, so it wasn't strange that she could find somewhere to hang the chain.
That way, she wouldn't be too uncomfortable and could still move around the room.
……
Meanwhile……
When Chu Feng saw the message from Su Yun, he grew extremely worried.
He immediately called her back, but there was no answer.
“Get every security guard who's still on duty to come with me!”
……
Thirty minutes later……
Su Yun was reading a manga she'd taken out of her bracelet when she heard someone banging on the door.
Looks like Chu Feng's here to save me.
Great.
Completing this mission would earn her 300,000 Humiliation Points. Add in her Divine Maiden equipment bonus—and the new headband, which brought her bonus up to 130%—
she'd get 690,000 Humiliation Points for completing it!
The mission requirements weren't just to make her pretend she'd been kidnapped. She also had to act weak and in need of protection……
How was she supposed to pull that off?
Su Yun thought back to how she'd acted cute online to trick people into sending her outfits……
Maybe acting cute would work?
If she added a few tears, she'd definitely pull it off!
With that thought……
She casually waved her slender, pale hand, and a few drops of water appeared at the corners of her eyes and beside her nose.
Looking into the water mirror in front of her, she put on a tearful, pitiful expression.
It was so convincing.
She looked exactly like a kidnapped girl, her weak and pitiful air brought to life perfectly.
The 【Goddess's Wish】 sometimes gave her skill books for everyday skills.
She'd learned the D-rank 【Acting】 skill among them.
When she heard footsteps drawing closer……
she quickly dismissed the water mirror.
“Xiao Yun'er, are you in here?”
“I…… Waaaah, I'm over here!”
Chu Feng rushed into the room where Su Yun was. When he saw the crying girl in front of him, he hurried over and pulled her into his arms.
Being held made Su Yun feel a little uncomfortable.
But to complete the mission, she wrapped her arms around Chu Feng's neck in return.
“Chu Feng, waaaah…… you finally came to save me.”
“I…… I…… waaaah, I was so scared.”
Su Yun shifted her body, and a few fake tears rolled down her cheeks.
