King of succubus

Chapter 166 Dalvine’s Threat!



*Why are you surprised like that?! Sigh, the universe of this plant really made you evolve upside down by making you more stupid than I could imagine. Your future really scares me if you have such an IQ that is not even worthy of belonging to a simple mortal.*

Even if Alvine could not see his facial expression, he could guess the head that Dalvine was currently doing in the dimension.

But unfortunately for him, he could not continue his conversation with him. “Have you found a way to know how to learn the skill in front of you?” Sylvia asked her master with question marks above her head.

“Sigh, no, but I think I know why I can’t learn this skill.” He announced to Sylvia after stopping conversing momentarily with Dalvine.

“The cause? Do you mean that you managed to overcome the bottleneck?”

Alvine shook his head in disagreement with Sylvia’s question. “I think it’s not a question of a bottleneck. In my opinion, this is linked to an external factor.” Even if he didn’t want to admit it, he knew that Dalvine was probably right.

‘I had not noticed this factor so far, but in reality, the system has no artifacts or techniques related to the protection of soul and mind. It may be because it’s his weak point; in this case, maybe if I can cultivate my soul and make it strong, my intuition tells me that this thing will no longer be able to block my affinities. I have always found it strange that the system can block my other magical affinities but is unable to do the same with my affinity for darkness. Why? Is it because my affinity for darkness is different from the affinity of others? Otherwise, I don’t see how an affinity of darkness that is only supposed to manipulate the shadow, can allow me to teleport and open dimensional flaws.’

He meticulously analyzed Dalvine’s words while trying to deny his words; but despite his mistrust, he found nothing that proved that his affinity for darkness was like the others. The power and skills of his dark affinity were simply incomparable compared to what others can do with their affinities of darkness. The most advanced level of use of darkness skills is the storage of objects and living beings in his shadow and the connection of the shadow as he had seen Ashia at work during the battle between them against the Valskars. She had managed to snatch the heart of a holy Valskar with her bare hand by connecting her shadow to that of her enemy [Shadow link]. And the second time was when she managed to send hundreds of Alvine’s mages into her shadow.

Ashia’s skill certainly resembled a space skill, but it was not one. Since her shadow could not send Alvine’s soldiers to another space that is independent of her shadow. But unlike her, Alvine could connect two different places, and teleport, to two different places with his affinity for darkness. Better yet, he could even teleport to the mysterious dimension which is a place categorically different and independent of other planets.

With this realization, he was even more convinced that Dalvine was not lying to him. ‘But if this boring guy is really right, it means that the power of the shadow that I thought was based on the invocation of shadow soldiers far exceeds my imagination. I still don’t know how to regain my dark energy after exhausting it. I still don’t know how this mysterious power, which I thought until now was the affinity of darkness, allows me to summon shadow soldiers and make dimensional jumps.’ He continued his analysis by forgetting his initial objective, which was to strengthen his soul and mind.

“Master, why have you been looking at me like that since just now? Do I have anything on my face?” Sylvia asked while tapping her face. Even if she knew that Alvine was in his thoughts and that he was not paying attention to her, she could not help but wake him up.

It was only after hearing Sylvia’s words that Alvine realized that her eyes were not closed. But he did not dwell in explanations. “Sylvia, are you able to use the affinity of darkness? Sigh, what am I even saying? Since your power is purely based on the life element, which is linked to the affinity of light; you must be unable to do so, right?”

“No, not quite. Concepts have nothing to do with affinities. Like all primordial beings, I can use elementary, intermediate, advanced, and rare affinities without the slightest problem.” She announced to him nonchalantly while her shadow fluttered behind her and she turned into another Sylvia next to her; [The duplication]. Alvine knew this skill. This was the skill he had tried to use in his confrontation with the third Ancient Kelspies; but which had mysteriously turned into an invocation of a shadow soldier who was none other than Darka’s first appearance.

But his eyes suddenly regained their glow after realizing that Sylvia will probably be able to answer his questions.

He got up from bed and walked to Sylvia’s lookalike who was standing in front of him. “Physical contact is no different from that of a real body, there is no difference between you regarding your appearance and size. Apart from my perception that can see through her, I can’t know if she is your copy or not.” Alvine analyzed Sylvie’s replica by touching her face and hair while he revolved around her with curiosity.

“But Sylvia, are you able to speak through her as if she is your real body?” He asked curiously while performing the same skill.

Unlike Sylvia who had made her shadow a lookalike of her; when Alvine does the same thing, it was not Darka who had just appeared before him, like the first time, but another Alvin who had the same appearance as him. But something bothered him when he saw his lookalike standing in front of him; he felt like he was facing Dalvine, especially when he saw his subtle smile that seemed threatening. But fortunately for him, his lookalike was silent and had no dark and heavy presence like Dalvine.

As for Sylvia, she found nothing strange when she saw Alvine launch the same skill as her. “Hm, normally, this skill allows us to create our doubles that are only empty shells that have no consciousness or soul. But I can influence my double by infusing it with life and part of my consciousness. But even with this, she will only gain 1/10 of my power and intelligence. But even with that, she will have the same fighting power as an intermediate divine rank mage.” She announced by tapping the shoulder of her double as if she were her twin.

Alvine was in admiration in front of her when he realized the chasm that separated primordial beings from the divine mages. How powerful are primordial beings so powerful?! I wonder if there are beings capable of surpassing them like them who surpass the divine Magi?!’ He wondered in his thoughts. But the first person who came to his mind was Dalvine. But he ridiculously shook his head with a subtle sigh. What am I thinking about? This bastard may be powerful, but maybe, he still remains on the average.’

“But it’s still strange. My double is slightly different from yours. I can see consciousness in this body, even if it’s weak.” She whispered, looking at Alvine’s replica with a slight frown.

“Kuku, little girl, you had never been taught that it was rude to stare at people like that?”

“Eh?! You’re talking about that while you stared at me earlier for a minute in a row. By the way, how did you manage to deceive me? I thought it was your double. But you seem to be the original.” She replied with surprise by tapping «Alvine»’s shoulder.

But when she looked at Alvine who was near the bed, her frown became all the more ferocious when she saw the surprise in Alvine’s eyes. “Wait, don’t tell me that…”

A frightening hypothesis flashed in her mind. “… Has your double just spoken?!” She asked this question with disbelief.

Alvine had a huge headache when realizing the identity of his (double). “Get away from him! This bastard is not my double, it’s Dalvine!” Alvine grumbled when he realized that Dalvine had taken advantage of his skill to get out of the dimension.

“What? Who is Dalvine?!” Even if she asked this question, she had when moved away from him as Alvine had ordered.

Dalvine spread his arms by avidly inhaling the surrounding air with a diabolical smile on his lips. “The soft atmosphere without the smell of blood, a peaceful calm without the desperate cries of souls leaving their bodies, I missed it so much.” These were the words he spoke after taking control of Alvine’s replica.

“Is it again you?” Sylvia no longer needed to hear her master’s answer to know who was standing in front of her. She guessed her identity just by hearing his sour words.

“Kuku, little girl, how are you doing since the last time? Did you appreciate my gift?” He asked while he was nonchalant and sat on Alvine’s bed while placing one leg on the other with a sublime-diabolical smile.

“You?! What are you doing about here?!” Alvine asked, advancing towards him. But Sylvia stopped him halfway.

*Calm down, this guy is more dangerous than you can imagine.* she says these words through telepathy.

But to Sylvia’s surprise, facing Dalvine, she could not have the slightest opportunity to protect her thoughts.

“Kuku, dangerous? Of course, I am dangerous. I am even more dangerous than the danger itself. But it’s only for others, not for him!” Before Alvine could respond to Sylvia’s warning it was rather Dalvine who replied to these words by pointing his finger toward Alvine.

“Humph, don’t think you are superior to me just because you can read my thoughts.” Her apathetic expression was in no way disturbed by Dalvine, even after she realized that Dalvine could read her thoughts so easily.

‘As I thought, this dude is more dangerous than our worst enemies. How to make sure to send him back without exasperating him? He is a maniac who only likes to kill!’ This was the only question that constantly came into Sylvia’s head. Even if Dalvine looked like a banal mortal without the slightest ounce of mana, she did not want to start a confrontation from which she was not guaranteed to emerge victorious.

“Kuku, little girl, your proud air and your insulating words have nothing to do with your thoughts. In short, this body is too weak to allow me to have a little fun. I’m here for an important and boring reason.” He replied without taking Sylvia’s provocative words seriously since he could know what she thought deep inside herself.

“So much better for us then. We’re going to send you back to your…!!

Before Alvine could continue his sentence, Dalvine lifts his finger at him, depriving him of his ability to speak as if it were nothing.

“I may be weak in this body, but you are always weaker than me; including you, little creature of the flower.” He announced in an unwavering tone.

Sylvia frowned with her placid expression but as ferocious as a bloodthirsty demon. “So what’s your goal when coming here? D-do you still intend to destroy everything?!”

“Kuku, little firefly. Destruction is an art that requires more attention than anything. So, you aren’t qualified to better appreciate my masterpieces. It will be purely a waste of time, at least, until I complete the task I set myself by coming to meet you.” He (reassured) his interlocutors with his (benevolent) words.

“But before I start, I hate being watched by incompetent beings who try to swallow meat from the nobles when they themselves are just the commoners.” He continued by slamming his finger.

“…!!” Sylvia could not know what he had just done, but Alvine, who was no longer able to pronounce a single sentence, knew what was happening when he saw the blurred notification in his System.

|Forced standby… |

‘What is it?!!’ Alvine could no longer contain his frustration by seeing Dalvine’s deliberate and arrogant actions. His murderous intent was so blatant towards Dalvine that Sylvia herself could not be spared the debris of stifling energies she received from Alvine without his pretending. But she managed to endure Alvine’s presence and bloody aura unlike the presence of the mysterious being who did not have the slightest energy coming from him.

“You see? I came to correct this weakness that they had implanted in your brain. Do you intend to threaten me with an aura that is not even able to scare insects? But are you stupid or what?! Sigh, my frustration is on a completely different level now. I have to find a way to evacuate this frustration.” He announced with an angry tone but which did not seem threatening, unlike when Alvine got angry.

But Alvine and Sylvia were alerted when they saw a dimensional portal appear in front of Dalvine. Worse still, he put his hand inside the black portal and took out someone who was dressed in pajamas!

“!!!” They both recognized the person Dalvine had just taken out in the portal. At that precise moment, They could say one thing, Dalvine’s viscosity far exceeded that of Alvine.

“Eh? Sir Alvine? What is… Why did you bring me here? I was counting…

“Get away from him quickly, he’s not the one you believe!” Sylvia thundered these words by stopping Liliana in her sentence. She was not able to go and save her, since if she moved away from Alvine, Dalvine was more likely to attack her master!

But unfortunately, Liliana’s hand was firmly held by Dalvine. She was not able to make any movement to follow Sylvia’s suggestion.

“Kuku, you are quite intelligent and faithful to what I see.” He nodded while saying these words while knowing the dilemma Sylvia was currently going through. “But don’t be afraid, I’m not going to kill this girl ruthlessly. After all, she is also my wife, isn’t she?” His Machiavellian smile suddenly became mischievous when he spoke these words.

“But now that I’m outside, I have several people hostage that you couldn’t imagine. For example, Ashia who currently negotiating with the two divine Magi, Nicco, Yuer, and Nicco who are on the planet of Alzania.” Every name he pronounced, a miniature portal appeared in front of Alvine showing his targets that did exactly what he said. To prove to Alvine the veracity of his threat, which was taking place in real-time!

“Not to mention your dear Sabrina, and planet earth which is just a distance from a blink on my part. So what do you suggest? A magnificent spectacle like a collision of these three planets to know which of these three planets would survive the collision or listen quietly to me to what I’m about to tell you?” He continued his (fun) by showing planet earth, Alzania, and the planet of Punishers who were several billion years away from light to each other with his ridiculous threats.

But Sylvia, who was the only one who kept her ability to speak, sighed bitterly when she realized that she had underestimated the being’s power in front of her.

“Very well, we will listen to you to the end. So don’t do anything stupid.”
