Chapter 132: 27th Floor: The Non-Virgin Trial
"D-don't lie!!!"
The non-virgin tried her best to argue, but no one believed her.
To be precise, after witnessing the previous trial and the magnificent display just now by me and the Bicorn... no, the unicorn, everyone naturally concluded that my side was far more credible.
"Elina...? I-is it true?"
And even the Crown Prince, whom she had trusted, began to waver.
Seeing this, Elina glared at me, the source of this false propaganda.
"Why are you trying to frame me with such lies!!"
Elina, filled with rage, shouted at me, but...
"What gives you the right to shout? You filthy non-virgin."
When I looked at her with a grimace as if she were disgusting, her expression contorted as if she were about to throw a punch at any moment.
'Hmph, serves you right, non-virgin.'
From now on, Elina is a non-virgin.
She says she's not? I'll make her one.
For me, who was originally a villainess, this kind of speech and behavior was perfectly natural, so people didn't pay it much mind.
I looked at Elina and saw the rage in her eyes.
Her gaze alone could kill!
But she closed her eyes and took a calm, deep breath.
'She's holding it in? Impressive.'
To a noble lady, pure virginity is like life itself.
She must have felt immense shame and anger just now.
Surprisingly, she succeeded in controlling her expression, calmed the crowd, and pleaded with genuinely aggrieved eyes.
"Everyone, you mustn't fall for this false propaganda... First of all, I am a pure virgin. I can prove it!"
'Oh... she's handling this surprisingly calmly.'
I thought she'd lose her reason to anger, but she's become even calmer. As expected, she's not an opponent to be taken lightly.
My counterattack was only working now because they had let their guard down, thinking I was the same foolish Kalisha who always fell for their schemes. My opponent is a master of court intrigue.
So, I had to gain as much of an advantage as I could here.
I had to make it so that even if she tried any tricks, it would be irreversible.
"When are you going to prove it? After the competition for the Crown Princess's hand is over?"
At my words, the crowd also...
"Right now... is a bit much, isn't it?"
"She already showed almost everything, right? If she shows it one more time..."
"Ahem, I don't think that's it..."
"Still, she does need to prove it."
The crowd might have been a little crazy, but they weren't crazy enough to demand Elina spread her legs and have her pussy inspected right here and now.
If they were common citizens, it might have been possible, but since most were nobles and non-hereditary aristocrats, such a vulgar public hymen inspection show did not occur.
"I can prove my purity. I will go to the church within two days and get an examination!"
In truth, that examination alone would be humiliating enough for her. Even if it was a church, she would still have to feel her legs being spread and her pussy opened in front of several people.
If it were me, I'd actually like it... no, anyway, now that she's calmed down, it's become difficult to finish this in one go.
'Ugh... I knew it. Taking her down in one shot is impossible.'
If she had doubted my Bicorn and asked me to prove it, the Bicorn, who I'd already briefed, would have done the opposite—letting virgins ride and non-virgins dismount. I had planned to completely brand her as a non-virgin that way and achieve a "virgin victory" without a vote.
But, as if she saw through this, she said she would only have her own purity tested.
Of course, this was still within my plans.
I knew about her physical virginity. But what about other things?
"Everyone, what she's getting tested for is ultimately her physical virginity. But isn't it strange? If what Elina says is true, why would the unicorn, which is said to carry only virgins, have rejected her?"
At my assertion, the crowd murmured again.
"That's true... what's going on?"
"It can't be that it's not a unicorn."
"Is there some other condition?"
This wasn't something I came up with, but something I learned from the viewers.
And that was...
"Even if Elina's body is a virgin, she is not a perfect virgin! A true virgin must be a virgin in mind, body, and spirit!"
The Mind-Body-Spirit Virginity Theory!
They had probably never heard of this before.
"W-what in the world is that supposed to mean!!"
Elina retorted, dumbfounded.
"The unicorn doesn't just look at physical virginity. To be blunt, how do we know you haven't used your back door or your mouth instead?"
"W-what... did you say?"
"And what the unicorn values isn't just the purity of the body. For a unicorn, whether a woman possesses a pure, virgin-like heart—the virginity of the mind—is also part of its judgment!"
"What kind of absurd..."
"Tell me, Elina. Have you never thought of another man besides His Highness the Crown Prince as a lover in the past? Did you truly feel no emotions for them?"
There were many of Elina's followers here.
Including the guard knight Barkan, Elina's sponsors, the Magic Tower Lord, and even the Ruler of the Back Alleys who came secretly in a robe, various men were focused on her words.
Of course, the Crown Prince was watching intently as well.
"Even if you didn't have direct sexual relations with those countless men, didn't you hold their hands, embrace them, and whisper words of eternal love, already offering up the virginity of your heart? And you still call yourself a truly pure virgin?"
"......"
How many men besides the Crown Prince had Elina flirted with? To get ahead, she must have seduced man after man, ultimately choosing the most valuable one, the Crown Prince. It was obvious without even looking.
"F-for me, from the very beginning, there has only been His Highness the Crown Prince..."
"For someone who says that, you've met quite a lot of men, haven't you? I even heard some were promised a night with you. Should I name them all?"
I glanced at the head butler nearby, and he took out a thick bundle of documents.
"......"
She fell silent. There must have been so many she couldn't even remember all their names.
If she had tried to make more excuses, I was prepared to publicly shame her with pre-arranged witnesses, but unfortunately, she kept her mouth shut.
"Do you understand? The unicorn doesn't just check if the body is a virgin. Only when one is a virgin in mind, body, and spirit, like me, can they be chosen by a unicorn!!"
"Is that for real...?"
"Well, if her heart is already a slut, that's a bit..."
"Wait, what exactly is a mind-body-spirit virgin?"
At someone's question, I explained once more.
"Mind! The heart must be a virgin. The heart of a woman who has already given her love to someone is not pure. Spirit! Is the body pure, ignorant of sex, and not ruled by lust? A woman with a lewd body who engages in pseudo-sexual acts or masturbation is not allowed. Body! Literally, does she possess the most important thing, a woman's virginity! Do you understand, non-virgin Elina?"
"Where did this ridiculous logic come from!! Are you saying it's wrong to even meet other men platonically or like them in your heart? Where in the world does a woman like that even exist!!"
Elina said, exasperated, but such a person did exist.
Kalisha Crawford.
The previous owner... of this very body!
While acting as a villainess, her specialty was stripping other ladies of their dresses, but her actions were born of pure malice intended only to humiliate, with no lecherous desire.
As I smiled and looked at her, her eyes widened as if she's just realized that such a woman did exist.
"That's right. She's right here! In the end, only someone like that is qualified to be the Crown Princess. Isn't that why His Highness the Crown Prince gave us this trial?"
Hearing my words, the crowd began to agree.
"Ooh...!!"
"That Crown Prince fellow, he prepared this trial better than I thought, huh?"
"It's true, Elina does have too many men around her."
"Come to think of it, Kalisha has always followed only the Crown Prince."
"That's right, she never even glanced at another man."
"Kalisha... to think she was the only one who was a truly pure virgin, even in her heart!"
It was a well-known fact that Kalisha was devoted to the Crown Prince.
Therefore, no one doubted it.
Moreover, the noblemen seemed to quite like the Mind-Body-Spirit Theory, nodding as if to say all women should be that way.
With a body count of nearly a thousand, my conscience pricked me for saying such things, but what could I do? I had to pass the trial first, right?
'Still, my mind is a virgin, I swear...'
Elina had already become as quiet as a mouse. It seemed she realized that refuting any further would just make her fall into the trap I'd set.
"What do you say, Your Highness? Didn't you prepare this trial precisely to filter out women who harbor other men in their hearts?"
By subtly framing it as the Crown Prince's wise trial all along, even those who couldn't accept the results now understood.
With the Mind-Body-Spirit Theory at the forefront, the trial that Elina had just claimed was inappropriate became a perfectly appropriate one. Now, she couldn't even call for the trial to be nullified!
The Crown Prince's trial was no longer a simple test of taming a horse, but the ultimate trial for weeding out even the non-virgins of the heart.
Meanwhile, the Crown Prince had just been shocked again by the claim that Elina was a non-virgin.
"Uh... th-that's right."
The half-dazed Crown Prince unconsciously agreed with me, then glanced back at Elina.
But Elina had fallen silent, completely lost for words in the face of my Mind-Body-Spirit Virginity Theory.
"Your Highness, please make your decision now. Promise me that you will give your 20% share to me, who has perfectly completed all tasks and looks only to you."
And then, another unexpected situation arose.
Elina started to look at the Crown Prince with a hint of suspicion.
Likewise, the Crown Prince looked at Elina with a hint of suspicion.
'Are you really a non-virgin?'
'You didn't trust me, so you gave this trial? Is that true... Come to think of it, why did he give me a horse I couldn't possibly tame as a trial?'
It wasn't enough to break their trust in each other, but a seed of doubt began to sprout within them.
"Your Highness!! Please, make the right decision!"
Urged by my words, a flustered Elina withdrew her suspicious gaze and looked at the Crown Prince again with sparkling eyes.
She quickly judged that turning the Crown Prince's heart back to her was the most urgent priority.
"Your Highness, are you really going to listen to such absurd nonsense?"
'Can't you just endure a few bad words?'
- Elina sent him a look that said,
"I've changed now. Please give a final chance to me, who has loved you unchangingly since we were children, Your Highness."
Kalisha, who had loved him without change.
'How did it come to this? Usually... shouldn't it be the other way around?'
The Crown Prince was lost in thought.
Kalisha, the woman like a sunflower who had always looked only at him, even after ten years, even when he hurled verbal abuse, even when he brought other women.
Come to think of it, she had never once acted wickedly towards him. She only acted neurotically when prying away the noble ladies who clung to him.
And this time, Kalisha even framed it as him giving a wise trial, and she had covered for him in the last trial as well.
'Ah... I was sure my love was only for Elina...'
"Take responsibility for your words, Crown Prince!"
"That's right! Please look at Kalisha, a virgin even in heart, just once!"
"If that's not pure love, what is?"
"As expected, he ends up with his childhood friend after all."
He sank into thought at the crowd's words.
Kalisha, who was for him, and Elina, who was trying to use him.
Of course, it was true he still liked Elina more, and he loved her.
But... there was too much to lose.
For some reason, he felt that if he were to lose even his position as Crown Prince, Elina would no longer be by his side.
It was a contradiction, but to be with Elina, he must first abandon her. As long as he had the title of Crown Prince, Elina would return.
'It is because I am the Crown Prince that she can be by my side.'
He felt as if his previously dazed mind had started working again.
In the end,
"The winner of this trial... is Kalisha Crawford. I will surely make this promise. My 20% voting share will all be used to support Kalisha..."
"H-how could you!!"
Elina was deeply shocked,
"Puhahahahaha!!!"
Kesira saw this and burst into refreshing laughter.
And from the audience, applause and cheers erupted for the correct choice.
The foolish Kalisha's pure and devoted love.
When I was first transmigrated, I thought she was a complete idiot, but surprisingly, I've been helped by her past.
Thinking about it, I felt a little sorry.
'The virginity Kalisha was saving for the Crown Prince... I've used it up wantonly... Ahem.'
And seeing Elina glaring daggers at me, something came to mind.
"Ah, Lady Luminous, I hope you will receive your virginity test at the church within two days as promised. Since you could bribe the church members, please go to the certified Saintess's church here and get tested directly. Understood?"
"Ah..."
"Why the hesitation? Don't tell me you've already used up your body too?"
Grind...
Elina clenched her fists, trembling and grinding her teeth.
She now had to go to the Saintess, her former rival in love, spread her legs, and have every nook and cranny of her pussy inspected. Could there be a greater humiliation?
"I'll do it... I said I'll do it!"
And with that, the trial ended.
The Crown Prince said he was tired and returned to the palace immediately. Naturally, I also left as if competing to see who could get away faster.
Kesira had vanished at some point, and Elina, clenching her fists and trembling, glared daggers at my retreating back.
'Ooh, so scary...'
She was a terrifying woman who looked like she could kill with her gaze alone.
*
Finally back at my mansion.
"Hoo... I'm tired."
After putting on that ass-show in the sky with the Bicorn and using my brain like crazy for the first time in a while, I was quite exhausted.
"Haaaaah..."
After being attended to by the maids for a sensual and pleasant bath, I lay down in bed, and sleep came drifting in.
'Yes, this is happiness. A pleasant sleep enjoyed after a victory. Good, so good...'
Of course, there was one last thing to do.
Necroumbra, the breast milk thief, had already snuck under my covers to steal my milk.
"Go, without anyone knowing, and pop the hymen of that blue-haired non-virgin from earlier."
I would completely eliminate any chance for Elina to counterattack.
If even I couldn't detect this one, how could a weakling like Elina possibly sense her?
As if to say she understood, Necroumbra patted my pussy.
Pat, pat!
"Hngh...! Now, stop playing around!"
That night, we enjoyed a commemorative Six-pot Sex to celebrate our victory.
*
And when I opened my eyes, the fourth week's trial was already beginning.
"Alright, let's just do well for one more week! We're almost there!"
Trials that required using my brain really didn't seem to suit me.
'From now on, I'll just assassinate my way through trials like this...'
