King of succubus

[[…I’M GOING TO ORGANIZE A BANQUET WITH THEIR MEATS THE RETURN OF THE LORD!]]

She said with a disdainful smile.

But just before teleported out of the castle, she frowned, feeling a familiar aura near the dome-covered city.

“Wait-wait, this energy…

She breathed uphill and again to stabilize the emotions raging in her heart.

And without finishing her remarks, Shadow, Luna, and the others vanished on the middle floor, followed by herself.

‘I’m sure it’s the Lord’s aura, but he’s closer to these damn beasts than expected! It’s bad!’ When she saw Alvine suddenly appear in the most dangerous place, her instincts shouted danger:

She accelerated so that her silhouette could no longer be differentiated from the draught that accompanied her.

Meanwhile, Alvine, who has just come out of the portal, is slightly surprised when he notices an imposing creature because of its size and presence in front of him.

But looking above him, a shock slightly crossed his black pupils when he noticed the sky was darker than expected.

-Huh?

When he looked closer, he realized the gigantic creature had brought its entire pack.

𝗈𝗏𝗅xt.𝗇𝓔t

The creatures looked like bats with abyss-black eyes similar to Alvine’s and their two-meter-long fangs. Their bodies were smoky black to the point that they easily blended with the dark night reigning over the planet.

‘Interesting, I had never seen such monsters. Although its aura is invisible, it is at least one level higher than mine. But why…they seem to be so scared?’ He murmured, looking straight into the dark pupils of the creatures, which seemed to have come directly into the abyss, with his own.

-SCUUURCKK!!

The creature Alvine had seen in the first and seemed to be their leader at all times shouted in a sonic cry that resounded like a sonic attack in Alvine’s eardrums.

“Tsk, what vulgar and weak creatures! I wouldn’t have-!? What do I say? Since when do I think that such threatening beasts can be weak?” Despite his brief confusion, he did not pay too much attention.

He held out his hand, and a long black spear appeared in his hand.

He tilts his body slightly backward and throws the spear toward the creature like a missile!

-Swhoowh!!

The spear carried with it a power exceeding Alvine’s thoughts and pierced the huge left wing of the creature without losing its monstrous power.

-!

In front of Alvine’s incredulous eyes, the spear continued its race toward the pack and pierced all those who were in its path, and continued its frantic race until Alvine no longer saw it.

He looked at his hand with stoic and skeptical eyes. To ensure he had not just dreamed, he showed another spear and was about to carry out a second attack.

But,

-BOOOOM!!

The dozens of creatures that had attacked fell before him, and the other fifty fled to save their skins.

In his disbelief, he looked at those who had just succumbed to his instinctive attack and realized that they were no longer alive.

Feyre and Zenof, who had just witnessed the whole scene, no longer knew what kind of expression they had to have that would allow them to express their shock.

“Such a complex attack instantly cast as if nothing?” Feyre stutters with suspicious eyes.

“D-Di-Did you understand something?”

“I’m not sure, but he used the destruction of the soul, which is united competence only accessible to transcendent beings and above.”

Zenof had veins on his forehead as he moistened his lips to digest the shock in his way.

“Does this mean that he has reached the transcendent rank? What a good joke! He wasn’t even a transcendent mage!” He constantly shakes his head while shouting these words without worrying about good manners.

“I didn’t say that! His three cores still exist in his body; that’s what I don’t understand! He is possessed!”

As she came to this conclusion, she put herself on the defensive by noticing the sudden appearance of Shadow and the others.

But contrary to her expectations, this small group didn’t even glance at them.

[[YOUR PRESENCE HONORS US, LORD!]]

They shouted together without holding back their overwhelming energies while kneeling before Alvine.

Alvine staggered back by being caught off guard in front of their strangely overexcited auras and cries. “E-Euh, I’m glad to see you too.”

‘Why are they so happy to see me!?’ His mind erupted in the face of their abnormal reactions.

He then looked around him with his magical perception, meticulously scanning all the surroundings, then,

“Good job to you; I didn’t expect to have so many survivors.” He announced in a sober voice.

“…”

His subordinates remained silent as their joys turned into sadness after hearing his compliments

‘I can now feel their emotion directly through me. I don’t know what kind of trick the spirit of the ring used on me, but my power has not only increased without my breakthrough, but my link with my shadow soldiers have abnormally strengthened beyond my expectations. I could only understand what they wanted to tell me, but now I can feel their feelings of inferiority.’ His heart also tightens in his chest by feeling all their emotions.

“It’s not your fault.” He spoke coldly.

[[…If only we–

“Shadow, stop acting like an idiot; you’re better than that. I don’t need to ask why many of my subjects died.” His roque voice thundered as his rage manifested in his aura, which emitted crazy pressure beyond imagination.

Shadow and the others had mad eyes of rage as Alvine’s rage passed through them.

‘What do they have those!? Well, it will be hectic in the next few days.’ Feyre didn’t want to linger on it when she saw Alvine and the others express themselves through a link she couldn’t see.

At the same time, Alvines’ emotions faded in his eyes. “I would give them back a hundredfold what they have just done to us; I make it the supreme oath above all!” He spoke these words with a heavy heart.

[[…]]

Seeing their silences, Alvine looked at Heepha and said:

“Go to the forge and serve to create everything useful to us.” He orders.

Their eyes flicker with disbelief when they hear Alvine’s unexpected order.

[[My… Lord, by the greatest of hazards, have you…

A cruel smile stood on his lips when he saw Heepha stuttering.

“I know what you want to know.” While pronouncing these words, one of the two pearls, more precisely, the blood-red pearl that was inlaid on his ring, shone with a crimson red glow, followed by a fiery portal appearing near him.

-Gulp! …Seeing the other side of the gate, Heepha’s eyes were slightly wet because of the wave of emotion.

[Welcome among us!]

Alvine raises his eyebrows slightly when he sees Heepha speaking in the language spoken by the spirit of the ring.

He keeps his insane smile while he responds calmly.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about, but I was always with you.”

-!!

‘Sigh, I understand their surprise; this is the second time she has spoken to me in this language. The first time, I didn’t understand what she was telling me. I now know why she had tested me. But many things remain incomprehensible in my head. I must isolate myself for a while to digest the information I received from the ring. In a war, it’s crucial to know more about your enemies.



-No matter their powers, I would crush them to the last! And even if this power doesn’t belong to me and I don’t know how long it will stay with me, I have to learn more about it and assimilate as much knowledge as I can to prepare for–

[[We are waiting for your orders!]]

Seeing Heepha take advantage, Shadow also advanced with dark eyes that Alvine had become accustomed to seeing.

Hearing Shadow’s words, he breathed a great breath of fresh air and compressed his powers.

He then murmured stoically: “An ideal without power is laughable, and a power without ambition is in vain.”

“…”

While everyone was listening to him, his aura became blood red, but the power of the latter had nothing to envy the old one, who was abyssal black.

‘For now, my power is not guaranteed; I have no idea about its nature, even if I have an idea of its origin. Is it momentary or permanent? I don’t know. But no matter the answer to this question, my intentions will not change.’ He said, clenching his fist several times while feeling the power he had never felt before in his body, and that only expects to express itself.

“Here are my orders. Heepha, you will forge the weapons and artifacts that you can forge. Of course, before you go to the forge room, recover what you are missing from this portal. There is everything you will need.”

“Yes, my Liege!”

“Greed!”

“Hah!”

“You will drive this woman into the experimentation room, watch over her and assist her in doing research that will be useful to us.”

Greed’s eyes de-turn crazy following Alvine’s order.

“My lord, do I have to…

“No, not this time; you are free to do as much as you want as long as it will be profitable. Show me this side of a mad scientist that you have always repressed in yourself. Don’t set yourself limits; I want to know what the only survivor of your race, nicknamed the masters of knowledge, are capable of!”

“My lord!!” He shouted as his aura testified to everything about his emotions.

‘Ugh! Is he crying!?’ He stepped back by noticing this strange phenomenon for the first time.

Greed was not in tears, of course, but the emotions that raged in his heart gave Alvine this impression.

“Hahh, is that a good idea?” Alvine thought loudly, noticing the insane glow in Greed’s eyes.

But one person seemed to be unhappy with Alvine’s decision, Feyre.

She stepped forward and spoke dissatisfiedly: “Wait, I have no interest in working with such a mentally stalled guy. What I want is to ex-

But before she finished her complaints, Alvine arrested her.

“You’re wrong, Feyre. The person who can help you in your research is Greed. He is more qualified than me, believe me.” He affirmed in an implacable voice.

Feyre raised her eyebrows slightly and glanced at Greed, who seemed to be a world apart.

“He doesn’t give the impression.” She persisted.

“I know, but I’m sure you won’t have the same reaction if I told you that he belongs to a race that had made the entire universe tremble not only by their advanced magical powers but also by their most advanced knowledge of these so-called hidden truths that you are pursuing.” Answer Alvine nonchalantly.

“…” Feyre frowns, waiting for Alvine to continue.

“The demons of greed,” Alvine affirmed in a monotonous voice.

But despite his answer, Feyre was still confused.

Seeing her mistrust, Alvine did not need to waste his time to decipher the doubt in her eyes. He continued:

“You may not know this breed, but you must surely hear the nicknames they obtained thanks to their renowned: the descendants of Raphael!”

-!

Feyre’s body stiffened following Alvine’s explanations.

“…So they existed in the past?” She whispered out loud with a small smile of a crazy scientist.

‘Yes, even if I have not yet assimilated all the memories acquired by the spirit of the ring, I have still managed to dig up some information about the identity of my allies. “Know yourself first before you know your enemy!” A quote that shines not only by its fame but also by the wisdom it contains.’ He said to himself with thoughtful eyes.
