Chapter 522
«What’s your name, sweetie?» – Astarte asked, slowly approaching the fat man with such a graceful gait that any supermodel would choke herself with envy.
«It’s none of your business.» – Kyon snapped coldly, considering his plan of action.
«How rude… Do you dislike me so much because you are confused by my horns, wings, tail and reddish skin?» – the girl pointed at herself with a finger with an extremely offended look. She knew that almost every person has been brought up to hate demons since childhood, so she asked this question.
«No. I don’t care about your race. However, I hate my master and those who encroach on my freedom. You and your sisters were chasing me to take me away and enslave me. Who do you think I am to be happy about this? Fuck you!» – Lovr rudely replied.
«I see…» – Astarte nodded, surprised at such an answer to herself, because usually everything comes down to banal racism, but in this case, the reason for the hatred is more mundane. – «Your hatred is justified. However, you will change your mind after I work on you, because there is no greater happiness for a man than serving a succubus. Let this beauty open your eyes to a new wonderful world!»
Each second counted.
The demoness instantly appeared near the young man to grab him with her tail, but suddenly he lit up brighter than 20 suns, illuminating with his radiance tens of kilometers of forest around. Having blinded everyone present, the fat man rushed into the arms of his opponent…
{What kind of ability is this?! What is he up to?!} – Astarte was surprised, feeling that all her senses were significantly strained, because of this, it was no longer possible to detect the presence of the person. Well, since he rushed to her, how could she refuse him?
Without hesitation, the succubus spread her arms, but he inexplicably walked right through her, like a ghost or a phantom.
{WHAT?!} – Astarte turned around in a daze and saw that the fat man was flying to Elsa, and she, accordingly, to him. It’s amazing, because the recent lightning strike should have immobilized her for at least 10 minutes, but she has already regained her mobility.
{They are up to something! I must not let them meet each other!} – the demoness quickly took out the whip and tried to wrap it around the neck of the fugitive, but her weapon inexplicably passed through the victim’s body, as if it were immaterial.
As soon as Kyon came into contact with Elsa, he immediately activated the protective item given to him by the zeroth general. Instantly, a translucent air barrier formed around the two young people. For some reason, it was blood-red in color, and it was able to protect them for a few minutes even from the sovereign phaser’s attack. It was not possible to feel the presence and development of succubi through it. Also, the barrier is clearly of high rank, which means that you can get out of it, as well as manipulate it in every possible way (open gaps, for example). This was to be expected from the defensive technique given by the right hand of the empress! It is possible that this is a gift from Lanatelle for her faithful servant.
Two Stones are now protected from demons for at least 3 minutes.
A little earlier, Lovr realized the astral for the first time in his life. He had long suspected that some secret was hidden in his unusual spatial attribute, and over the past months of training, he discovered it and adopted it.
How does it work?
It is widely believed that a spatial object cannot be placed inside another spatial object, as well as elemental energy, active matter like boiling water and an animate organism. However, by trial and error, Kyon found out that it is actually possible. But all this is instantly spat back out without any consequences, and so quickly that no one will be able to notice anything, no matter how hard they try.
Thanks to the inside-out spatial pocket, as well as his improved spatial attribute, Lovr is able to place his body (and even the ring) in the world of singularity for a much longer time. And even in this case, this time is a zeptosecond. But in the real world, a whole second passes, because time in the singularity is almost stopped.
In other words, he and everything he is wearing moves into the future for a second, since he is in the dimension between worlds for 1 zeptosecond, and in the real world 1 second passes. He disappears from the universe for a whole second!
To enter the astral, it is enough to imbue the body with a spatial attribute and activate the formation in the ring. There is no need to create any black bubbles, as it usually happens when you need to put objects in the ring.
There are also nuances: during the action of the astral, the soul continues to move by inertia, so after a second the body appears in the place where it would be a second later. In other words, you can easily materialize inside the wall, and if suddenly the body is not strong enough to destroy it, then there’s gonna be one less unlucky otherworlder.
It is also interesting that the already immaterial body continues to emit visible light, which gives the impression that he has not disappeared anywhere. But it is impossible to feel his presence, no matter how powerful the spiritual sense of the practitioner.
But there is also an important limitation: you cannot enter the astral more than once every 15 minutes, otherwise the body will lose its oscillation frequency, and approximately the same thing will happen that happened once when Valeera captured Kyon’s soul: the body began to collapse. And to clarify, the situation with Rose will be repeated. His soul allegedly attacks his own body, considering it to be someone else’s. In general, the result is the same – death. The experimental rats confirmed this.
Thus, Lovr can now enter the astral for 1 second every 15 minutes, thereby avoiding any dangerous and instant attack. That’s how he got through the succubus and eluded her whip. A very convenient protective tool that will definitely come in handy in the future.
A hundred succubi gasped in shock. What just happened?!
Before Kyon could catch his breath, he suddenly noticed that the whip was wrapped around Elsa’s leg…
With a sharp movement, Astarte pulled the blonde out of the barrier and exclaimed admiringly: «Incredible! You were able to get past me, the sovereign phaser at the beginning stage! I am extremely fascinated by your abilities, sweetie! But what’s the point? Do you really think that some barrier will stop me?» – breaking into a dazzling smile, the demoness tried to break through the barrier with her bare hands, but was surprised to find that she was unable to do so. Frowning, the girl hit harder, and then at full force, but the blood-red air barrier only vibrated a little.
{Damn bitch…} – Kyon darkened, frowning at the pale Elsa. He did everything to escape with her, but now, if he escapes alone, the blonde will undoubtedly be killed.
«What a strong barrier… Well, all right. Its destruction is only a matter of time. My dear, how about going outside in a good way? I promise to thank you…» – the sultry succubus pointedly licked the heart on the tip of her tail and winked playfully.
The leader of the succubi wanted him to come out voluntarily, as she was afraid that if she had to destroy the barrier by force, the residual momentum of the last blow would harm him. The horned one even added: «And do not forget that Elsa is in my hands! Quite by accident, I might change my mind about sparing her…»
«Just don’t hurt Elsa!» – Kyon suddenly shouted.
The succubi looked at each other meaningfully.
Elsa raised her eyebrows in surprise. She was touched by his concern.
«Ho?» – Astarte broke into a triumphant grin, revealing the weakness of the fat man. He does like the blonde. – «I won’t hurt her, so come out boldly, kitty! I promise she’ll leave safe and sound! I give you my word of the daughter of the matriarch of the Ruru family. It’s worth a lot.»
«Even if you promised me not to hurt her, what about the other succubi? They have enough reasons to kill her! I can be sure of Elsa’s safety only when she gets inside the barrier, where no one can get to her!»
The demoness suspected something was wrong, so she decided to act more carefully: «I agree, but you have to come out and stand next to me. To assure me that you won’t run away from me like you did recently. Otherwise there will be no deal.»
Closing his eyes, Kyon took a deep breath and resolutely stepped out of the barrier. He approached the surprised demoness and calmly looked into her eyes, as if waiting for her further actions.
«And you know how to surprise!» – Astarte praised the young man, hugging him and gently stroking his head like a precious doll. – «Since you kept your promise, then I will keep mine. Elsa, darling, you’re free! Go in peace, as we agreed…»
Stone approached the barrier and, as soon as an opening formed in it, she instantly jumped inside, after which the barrier closed behind her. Next to the girl, the real Kyon came out of invisibility, and with such a look as if nothing had happened.
Astarte’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets. If he is there, then who is she hugging? The person indistinguishable from the original in her arms suddenly vanished into nothingness… It turned out to be a clone!
A little earlier, the clone of Lovr emerged from the one-way barrier, while its creator hid in invisibility inside. Since the barrier blocks the spiritual sense, the demoness could not figure out the trick, so she took the clone for the real one and, accordingly, fulfilled the condition of the deal and released Elsa to the barrier.
More than a hundred succubi gasped in shock, opening their mouths.
«Y–you deceived me!» – Astarte screamed in disbelief, finally realizing what was happening.
«Oh, how clever you are, you finally understood!» – Kyon praised her with a malicious grin.
Astarte looked as if she had been doused with ice water. The chap not only tricked her, but also brazenly mocks her, talking to her as if she were a simpleton! She was justifiably indignant: «How dare you break your promise to me?!»
«Are you completely stupid? Why should I go into voluntary slavery?»
The demoness could not find an answer, because the interlocutor is somehow right in his own way.
While the demons were recovering from the shock, Elsa anxiously turned to her partner with telepathy: {«What are we going to do next? Your barrier will buy us a few minutes at best… Even the entire army of the first general will not force the succubi to retreat!»} – she still did not understand what Kyon was up to. Why did he even drag her into the barrier?
{«Moving the imperial phaser will cost me dearly, Elsa… It’s better for you not to know what I’ll do to you when we’re alone!»} – having said this, Lovr threw a teleportation trigram under his feet, stood in it and, hugging the girl tightly to him, activated the movement. The subtle, fragrant scent of the blonde’s hair pleasantly tickled his nostrils.
