"The Elf Empress didn't ascend the throne legitimately, so to stabilize her position, she really had no choice but to kill her sister, who was more suitable to inherit the throne." Melanie actually understood the Elf Empress in the movie quite well.
Leticia curled her lip; she couldn't understand this Elf Empress with questionable intelligence.
If you want to kill someone, just do it. Why come up with some 'flawless' plan? As it turned out, that 'flawless' plan was simply laughable.
The whole plan was like a bamboo basket; it was full of holes.
Now, her sister had not only corrected her previous bad habits but also found love, and was now standing in front of her, challenging her.
The ministers were also standing behind the sister; they had already made their choice with their actions.
"In that case, all of you go to hell! I am the Elf Empress! I am the Elf Empress!" The Elf Empress had already gone mad.
Watching the Elf Empress on the screen turn into a disgusting monster, Leticia was truly speechless.
Why would an Elf turn into this ghostly shape?
There was no foreshadowing at all; she just turned into a monster. How much did the director want to promote the 'action' element in this romance movie?
However, to tell the truth, apart from the logical flaws, the final fight was indeed satisfying to watch.
The movie ended, and Melanie silently retracted her hand.
Leticia looked at her hand that had just been held by Melanie, her expression somewhat complex.
She hated Melanie as a person, but she didn't dislike physical contact with her.
To put it in layman's terms, she coveted Melanie's body, but she hated the soul within that body.
It was very superficial, but she didn't feel there was anything wrong with it.
Everyone has an appreciation for beauty, and the level of beauty of this person, Melanie, was indeed off the charts.
If it were anyone else, Leticia wouldn't be conflicted at all. You want to kill me, and I could still have good feelings for you?
What a joke; Leticia wasn't crazy.
But Melanie was too beautiful, which completely threw Leticia into a state of conflict.
She wants to kill me, so I can't give her a pleasant look, but she is so beautiful, I really want to cuddle with her.
In short, it was very conflicting.
She was conflicted before, she was conflicted now, and in the foreseeable future, Leticia would continue to be conflicted.
"I'm a bit sleepy; I want to go back and take a nap." Leticia shook her head, shaking off the complicated thoughts in her mind.
The Leader hurriedly reached out to help Leticia up from her seat.
Being helped to stand up, Leticia turned her head and found that Eriko's state was a bit off.
This girl was bowing her head, fists clenched tight, with a low-pressure aura surrounding her. Clearly, her emotions were not right.
"Eriko, are you okay?" Leticia looked at the two people beside her and felt it was better for her to be the one to ask.
The Leader wasn't familiar with Eriko, and Melanie... counting on her?

That would really be no better than doing it herself.
Hearing Leticia's voice, Eriko raised her head like a startled little beast, the look of panic on her face impossible to hide.
"I'm fine, just thinking about some things." She waved her hands repeatedly, indicating that nothing was wrong.
But her behavior made it very obvious that something was wrong. Whether it was the low mood just now or the panic now, neither were normal emotions.
To be able to watch a romance-action movie and end up like this, there must definitely be something wrong.
Are you really okay?
Leticia gave Melanie a look, indicating that this was trouble she had brought, and she had to resolve it herself.
Melanie replied with a look that said, 'I can't handle this job.'
She was good at killing people, but not so much at other things; handling her relationship with her sister was already the death of her, so asking her to communicate with other girls—spare her.
"I'm really fine," Eriko replied firmly.
Since she had answered that way, Leticia couldn't be bothered to guess what the girl was thinking; it was probably nothing more than the usual things anyway.
Either she saw the pure and beautiful relationship between the two female leads and recalled her own failed romantic experiences, but Eriko looked about the same age as Yori, so it was unlikely she had experienced such things.
Or, it was an issue regarding the Elf Race.
Leticia had always believed that Eriko was a Half-Elf, and the birth of a Half-Elf was due to the union of a human and an Elf.
Children born across races would inherit the traits of both parents, but whether it was human superpowers or the natural magic of the Elf Race, Half-Elves had no way to utilize them.
And in both the Human World and the world of the Elves, Half-Elves were unwelcome.
Discrimination was a small matter; the most terrifying thing was that even if a Half-Elf were killed, the perpetrator would not receive any punishment.
Because the law simply did not protect Half-Elves.
Human laws protected humans, and Elf laws protected Elves; as for Half-Elves, they were beings abandoned by both worlds.
Therefore, relationships between humans and Elves did not necessarily have a good outcome.
Perhaps Eriko was thinking of her parents and the survival situation of Half-Elves in reality, which was why she appeared so dejected.
"Don't think too much; your background isn't everything. You have to walk your own path."
Leticia couldn't exactly say, "You, as a Half-Elf, need to be self-reliant," so she could only say some vague words to comfort the girl, "You must hold your own destiny in your own hands."
"I... I understand."
Eriko looked at Leticia in a daze. The pale girl's face showed no expression, but her words just now made Eriko feel a warmth in her heart.
Miss Ohara, was she comforting her?
The status of a Half-Elf caused her to suffer endless discrimination, and all the suffering she endured was because of this damned Half-Elf identity.
If she could, she really wanted to excise the bloodline belonging to the Elves from her body.
As a pure human, she might be able to live better.
"Don't think so much. In fact, many people don't care who your parents are. You are you; just be yourself."
Leticia patted Eriko's head, feeling that her ability to play the role of a caring older sister was really not very good.
But she was the only one here who could do this.
Although she also thought about turning around and leaving, ignoring this girl, Leticia saw a shadow on Eriko.
The shadow of her own confused self from the past.
She couldn't help but want to help this girl, who was just as lost as she once was, to walk out of her predicament.
If someone had enlightened her back then like she was doing now, perhaps Leticia wouldn't have become that cold and ruthless Miss Demon King.
Did her guidance have any effect?
Leticia didn't know the answer to that question, but looking at Eriko's thoughtful expression, her guidance must have had some effect.
"I feel like it would be better for you to call a psychologist for that little girl; compared to her physical problems, her psychological issues are clearly more serious."
After finishing lunch and returning to her warm little duvet, Leticia said to Melanie.
She was just an ordinary Miss Demon King who wasn't very good at talking and didn't really understand the human heart; to solve Eriko's psychological problems, it was better to let a professional psychologist handle it.
"Mm, you rest well; I will take care of these things."
Melanie nodded, not telling Leticia that she had already hired a psychologist before.
