King of succubus

“Mistress, are you sure of what you say? So I have to gather all the Punishers as soon as possible? But…why?”

“You, shut up! Who put us in this mess, according to the three of you?! If it were not because of your insatiable greed, we would not be in this hell at the moment.” Before Sabrina answered Ferda’s question, Sylvia scolded her in a frustrated tone.

After agreeing on the events that will probably precede their master’s return, Sabrina and Sylvia made a decision together: to gather as many allies as possible before the war, which will likely be an unprecedented event!

Seeing the heavy atmosphere, Helios intervened to appease the flame of bubbling anger of Sylvia and Ferda. “Okay, okay, no need to get angry for so little. Miss Sylvia, even if the kidnapping of your ‘husband’ is partly our fault, it does not mean that we must redeem ourselves in this way. Not to mention saving us; if you had obediently cooperated with us, this event would not happen. In short, what happened happened, we can’t change anything about it; maybe if Miss Ferda wasn’t weakened after the war, she would be able to change something with her concept of time but now…

“Helios, abbreviate your words, fuck!” Instead of Sylvia, it was rather Ferda who scolded him in her place.

“Ugh! … In short, all this is to tell you that getting angry will not change anything about the situation. Instead, let’s find a compromise in which we will all be winners. But first, you must at least explain what drives you to want to bring together all the Punishers.” Helios continued while strolling aimlessly into Sabrina’s office.

“…”

After everyone’s silence, Sabrina, now the center of attention, scraped her throat before giving a nonchalant explanation.

“From what you explained to us, you have all learned that the master has such powers through an anonymous being, haven’t you? According to my analyses, I can say this; It’s a trap set by someone who is neither one of ours nor one of the Leaders.”

“…Why this conclusion, mistress? This may be a trap set by the Leaders to create discords between us.” Xelor asked while sipping his wine.

He was the least talkative person among the Punishers, apart from Alvinos.

“Well, it’s easy to understand. We, primordials, all have the same ambition. Who will be nice enough to share this information knowing they will find it more difficult to get these benefits for themselves?” A mysterious smile appeared on her lips as she gave this answer to Xelor.

Xelor, on the other hand, thought as he treated Sabrina’s answer carefully. “This is a plausible answer, only if these rumors are true.” He said after careful consideration.

“You are right, but mistress, answer at least one question from me: are Sylvia’s healing and the current state of Galiel’s daughter related to your master?” Ferda had always insisted on the question that concerned her most and which was probably the master card to erase all kinds of misunderstanding.

If Alvine had cured Sylvia without a primordial elixir, it would mean that he would be their greatest asset. The last great war had caused the death of dozens of primordials, but also many wounded on both sides. Even Linnaella was one of the victims.

Sabrina nods her head. “You are right; this girl had reached the primordial rank only thanks to my master’s help. As for Sylvia, it was also thanks to my master that she regained her powers. It was as simple for my master as snapping his fingers!”

“…!!!”

“So…will he be able to heal me too?” Ferda’s eyes widened after hearing Sabrina’s answer.

“I don’t know that yet. And I also don’t know if he could accomplish such exploits.” She replied without ulterior motive.

‘Sigh, if only you knew what he had sacrificed for us, the children of this universe, I am sure that neither you nor the Leaders will have fun looking him in the eyes. But you will soon know. Apart from the lord of darkness who knows all the truth, even I have inherited only a few debris from the memories of the Supreme tree.’ She continued in her thoughts while tapping the table with her finger.

After a brief moment of silence, she continued. “Now you have your answer, let’s go back to the main topic. As I said earlier, you must gather the Punishers before the master returns. The cause? That’s because we now have two enemy types: the leaders and the being who spreads these rumors about my master. Everyone must now become that its intentions are not good. Otherwise, he or she would not seek to sow such discord between us.”

“…”

‘Well, it’s time to give them a blow of grace!’ She said to herself while keeping her thin smile on the corner of her lips, following their hesitations.

“Of course~, as long as it doesn’t harm my master, I would be the first to convince him to help us all reach the legendary rank everyone dreams of reaching! But above all, we must first heal our wounded whose divine potions of the high levels can do nothing against their wounds, like you, miss Ferda.”

“You…are you serious?!” Ferda startled on her chair while struggling to keep her excitement after hearing Sabrina’s words. The other two were also not different from her.

“Tsk, what do you think about me? I only do my duty as your leader, nothing more or less. But it won’t be free; we’ll talk about the fees when the time comes.” She replied when she saw the blinding glow in their eyes.

Then she continued: “You know what you have to do now. It would help us if you prepared yourselves for a potential war that will probably be more destructive than the previous ones. To be honest, this is one reason that pushes us to ally with traitors like you. Because as soon as my master returns, you know like me that a war will break out; since this anonymous informant will not let this chance slide between (his) fingers.”

With these last orders on her part, the meeting continued with some additional information and some conditions to form a solid alliance between them.

“Sigh, finally done!” Sabrina sighed with relief behind her office after the three left.

“Are you sure we can trust them?”

“Little Sylvia~, if there’s one thing you need to know, that’s to learn how we react. And in my experience, an alliance based on mutual interest is the strongest alliance there is. So you don’t have to worry about that. The more frustrating is to see that this meeting lasted more than two days while what we miss most now is the time!” She grimaced after remembering the potential problems that may be happening on the planet Alzania.

“You’re right; this madwoman will do a one-way carnage there if we don’t hurry. But still, your plan is hard to put into practice about Alzania’s war. Not to mention Lilliana, who would risk exploding with rage; there are also many people we could not tell the truth about concerning the master kidnapping.”

“Heh~, you don’t have to worry about this strategy; Know that Darka, a knight-level shadow soldier, is with me at the beginning. He’ll be able to summon the master’s clone without any problem, then the master’s clone will replace the master in his absence, and we’ll not be obliged to reveal the master’s absence to everyone. The only problem is about my master’s wife. I know I have to see her as a lady of my master, but… every time she opens her mouth, I wildly desire to send her into the underground world; she’s so frustrating!”

-Pfff!!

Sylvia sprayed her tea in shock after hearing Sabrina’s words. “N-no, no, and no! Let me take care of her; I’ll explain the situation without any problem. Moreover, now that I think about it, you don’t even need to go to Freyja’s planet; stay here and boost your powers. I’ll manage the situation, and if it escapes under my control, I’ll send you an emergency message.” She proposed, wiping her lips with a handkerchief.

“…Very well, you will leave with my butler, except for you and Galiel’s daughter; he will surely be the strongest among you, so his help will be precious. But in order not to lower the morale of the troupe, the abduction of the master must remain secret; apart from Mrs. Lilliana and the master’s maids, no one should be aware of this story. While waiting for the situation to stabilize, the master’s clone will serve as a replacement for the time being.”

Thus, without them realizing it, these two women have just created more agitation in the coming years because of this decision.

Meanwhile, on Alvine’s side, Linn became more and more agitated and nervous for futile reasons.

As the place where she was with Alvine was neither a planet nor in the cosmos, but rather inside a small mansion on a magical meteorite thanks to her primordial weapon that had absolute control of space, time was as fast as on a rank five planet!

In other words, time was twice as fast as on the planet of Alzania (a rank-four planet). Sabrina and Sylvia, who spent two days in a row on a rank one planet, knowing that every thirty minutes is equivalent to one day, on Alzania planet…

So anyone could understand Linnealla’s frustration who did not expect Alvine to cultivate for several weeks; despite her difficult situation!

But the worst dilemma for her was that she could not decide what to do to know the method that allowed her to reach the intermediate rank. Her point of view was that Alvine looked like a fragile bird that she could accidentally kill if she slightly tried to force him to reveal the information she wanted.

Unlike Assiaphir, who has a power of mental control, Ferda can spy on her targets’ past and future, or even Serena, who can force her targets to commit things or completely change their personality thanks to her powers linked to destiny; Linn’s concept was not as practical in this kind of situation.

“Ah, shit! When does he plan to wake up?! Even if the time is in my favor, I can’t be patient, knowing that every second past can help me progress! And this bastard, who has been meditating for several weeks now, still has no intention of opening his eyes.” She mumbled to herself while nervously nibbling her nails.
