Chapter 98 The Missing Princess Part 1
Chapter 98 The Missing Princess Part 1
[: Tilith Pov :]
As far as I can remember, I was a princess and the daughter of Empress Lilith, my mother who rules the Continent of Xebec.
My mother dotes on me and my sisters a lot and it’s not a secret that all of us were a unique race called Succubus.
But it wasn’t just any random Succubus, but royalty and even though beast kin were looked down upon, our race was rather yearned by many.
But because of the achievements made by my ancestors, we were made into royalty, and due to the traits of succubus, only women were born in each generation, and I was the youngest.
Being the youngest, everything that I wanted and needed was easily given without any refusal, and even my Elders sisters who were hundreds of years old doted on me.
I was only 19 years old at that point when life was filled with pure bliss.
Perhaps because I was young, I didn’t think much about what people might think of me, I wouldn’t assume that deep within their hearts contains dark murky emotions.
My mom and sisters had constantly warned not to trust humans, but because of my simplicity, life became hell for me…and I regretted trusting them too much.
It was just a simple normal day where I would leisurely spend my time in the Imperial House, but because of my foolishness, I wanted to go outside and experience what it’s like to adventure.
I yearn for the thrill of an adventure and disobeyed my mother’s rules.
She wasn’t a strict mother nor did she restrict my movement, but she often told me not to stray far away from the imperial house or the guards that have been assigned to me.
The guards were my bodyguards were quite powerful and their prowess was no joke, and with them by my side, I got nothing to worry about…except that they rigidly followed the orders of the Empress, and my chain of command wouldn’t able to exceed my mother.
Thus, I needed a way to fool them, and in the end…it did work…and that was the biggest mistake I had ever done.
I never thought that there would be people who would be waiting for an opportunity to take me away and I underestimated how people wouldn’t fear the Empress.
And before I could send a signal for help, I was kidnapped immediately and since I was never trained and only able to rely on my racial traits, I was overwhelmed by 20 or more cultivators.
Although I still managed to kill some of them, they still overpowered me in the end and I was kidnapped.
I remembered how devastated I was and how many tears I poured while calling for my mom’s and sister’s name.
I was inside a caravan being transported from one place to another place and because of the Slave Seal, I couldn’t bring out any of my powers, and because of that, I was powerless to do anything.
I thought those moments were the worse and I didn’t expect the hell I thought turned out to be paradise, and the moment I arrived at the Slave Continent, that was where Hell begins.
“Haha, I can’t believe we managed to catch a succubus and royalty to add on!”
The person who caught me tossed me inside a cell as he laughed manically and for the first time in my life, I never felt this huge urge to kill the men right in front of me.
I glared at him with fiery and bloodlust eyes and threatened him.
“Just wait! My mother, the Empress would soon come and all of you would die!”
I earnestly believed that my mom and sisters would come and save me. After all, they were my family.
“How funny. Do you think your Empress would want to come here? Think about it carefully, if the Ten Great Continents had made a move, do you think we would still exist right now?”
Although I wanted to refute him, his words made sense and I couldn’t find any reasons to refute them other than glaring at him with hateful eyes.
“That’s it. Isn’t your expression now better? Well, even if your mother would come, do you really think we didn’t make any preparations? Do you think we would sit by and not consider any attack from the Ten Great Continents?”
“People like you who don’t understand how the world truly works would often believe in their families too much”
“Well, fortunately, a customer is willing to spend a hefty price for you…but before you can be purchased, you’ll need some discipline”
It was the last words I heard from him and I still could remember how frightened I was after that day, I broke down.
I was forced into doing some indecent actions that I wasn’t willing to do and because of the tremendous ‘training’, I mentally broke down and each time I returned to my cell, I shivered with tears pouring out.
And to keep my sanity intact, I scratched the walls counting the number of days that had passed by and as time passes by, my hope of my mom coming to save me was slowly dimming.
I didn’t know why were they not coming to save me and because of my deteriorating mind, my love for them turned into hatred and I was no longer the innocent naive girl.
From a month became 2 months and eventually, almost a year passed by and now, I was just emptily leaning against the murky cell with a blank expression.
There were no hopes in my eyes and I had no will to live. I just wanted everything to end and even if I wanted to kill myself I couldn’t due to the Slave Seal.
Even if I had wanted to make friends with other slaves, they were in the same conditions as me and I wonder how some of the kids still had the will to live.
Compared to them, I was just a weak will girl who had grown up being spoiled by my family and only then I realized how I had fortunate I was because I didn’t listen to my mom, this was the aftermath.
At this point, I didn’t have the energy to blame my mom for not saving me since I had given up on everything.
“Hear me out world”
But all of a sudden, I heard a voice.
A voice that sounded soothing yet domineering was being echoed in my ears and I thought it was just me being crazy, but it was not because of my insanity.
“For the first time, I will be declaring my existence to the world…and there’s only one thing that you should know…and that is…I’m the Sect Master of Heavenly Harem Sect”
I didn’t know what was going but seeing the Slave Guards and other Slaves panicking proves that this wasn’t a voice that my mind fabricated.
“It’s a sect that nobody knows and heard of as it accepts only women and the reason why I’m openly declaring this is because a certain continent has crossed the line it never should”
I didn’t understand what was going on or what this voice had something to do with me and why everyone was hearing the same voice.
But at the same time, it lighted an emotion that had burned out during my time here and that was my curiosity.
“Let this be the first and last warning to whoever dares to mess with the disciples of my sect and my punishment to this group would be its obliteration”
Obliteration?
I seem to somehow understand the context and its motives.
But for it to be able to transmit its voice through my mind had already spoken its strength.
I didn’t know which continent had offended this being, but I doubt this being could mess with a continent since even a mother is not able to do that.
If my mom could have done that, perhaps, I would have been saved a long time ago.
But all of a sudden, I didn’t know what had happened but I was teleported up in the sky.
I couldn’t understand what was going on and began panicking, but the moment I heard ‘its’ voice, I calmed down.
“You’ll be fine from now on and you’ll be the ones to witness this moment”
I could finally see the person who was the source of the voice and I never thought it turned out to be a humanoid man.
At this point, my mind began kicking in like never before and as I gaze through my surroundings, I was even more of shock.
There were hundreds of thousands of slaves around me and being in the sky, we were floating even though it was hard to tell whether it was day or night, one thing is for sure, this wasn’t a normal day.
The whole world was darkened with only small minuscule light being exposed but what I was attracted to the most was being in front of me.
With his awestruck golden crimson scales and massive 3 pair of golden crimson flames wings and golden crimson slit eyes with pair of horns, I thought he was beautiful.
I was aware and knew that the man in front of me wasn’t an average cultivator.
I could feel my blood boiling and that was a way that he was a being that I can’t defeat no matter what. But that wasn’t important right now.
When he declared that we’d be fine from now on, I didn’t know why I felt such comfort and even though I could feel his pressure despite being distance away, I felt safe as his aura provided a peaceful ambience. πΌπ―ππ₯οΌππ¨πΊ
Nevertheless, when he declared that we’d be the first to witness something, I was extremely curious about what he wanted to do and the next second, I was absolutely terrified yet amazed.
