King of succubus

[To all the shadow soldiers, join the kingdom of the shadows!!]

This order, not only intended for his shadow army but also for recruits such as Sabrina, Sylvia, Linnaella, etc., created a tumult of unease in the minds of all, without exception.

The simple fact of seeing him act with such caution was already an unprecedented mystery for them, but to order them to withdraw when a threat hovered over them was even more so.

Yet, although his decision seemed to be the most stupid, no one dared to question him.

‘Well, it seems that the situation is really chaotic. Finally, even if I am against this decision, I cannot bring myself to disobey my lord; it would be contrary to all my duties.’ Whether it is Askald who is deprived of an exit,

-We exist for the master and by the master. His death is ours and serving him is our reason for living. So I can’t disobey him; even if I want it more than anything. – Or from Darka who was always doubtful,

…Everyone (the shadow soldiers) hastens to go to the kingdom of emptiness, as Alvine had just ordered them. They all had similar thoughts, but disobeying his orders was the last thing they could think.

As a result, the planet sank into the darkness as the billions of shadow silhouettes turned into a mist before sinking into his shadow that had already engulfed the entire planet.

In the blink of an eye, the overpopulated planet became almost uninhabited; leaving only the three dominant races, the magical beasts, and of course, the new residents.

After evacuating the Shadow soldiers, everything returned to the original; with a few exceptions.

Standing behind Alvine, Reha frowned when she saw Alvine’s aura turn from black to immaculate white.

“My dear master, what do you have in mind? It’s a crappy plan, I tell you.” She says as if she could know Alvine’s intentions.

The latter, which tends to laugh in such situations, was always silent.

And just like with the shadow, his white aura spreads on the ground, engulfing the planet in a white and peaceful light.

“Don’t try to understand my reasons, just wait for me to manage this little problem.” For the first time, he murmurs this sentence for Reha.

Reha’s eyes had trouble masking her emotions following Alvine’s ‘instructions’; but she sighed a breath of warm air, abandoning any attempt at reasoning.

Her body then dived in the white carpet followed by the others who followed her closely.

The slightly inhabited planet has suddenly become empty; without humans, dragons, elves, mermaids, or even magical beasts.

In its depth, the core of the planet was not left behind either.

But its disappearance led to irreversible phenomena on the planet.

Mana feeds a planet, but for mana to circulate through the planet, the core is like its engine.

Just like ships that need crystals to function, planets also need cores.

This is also valid for mana. Without the core of a planet that plays the most important role (the transformation of raw energy into mana), mana won’t be able to circulate, so a planet will only be a meteorite rock wandering in the immense void of the universe.

Taking this detail into account, it was, therefore, not surprising to see the giant trees several hundred meters high dead off, the seas drying up and the volcanoes going out.

It simply died out, the original planet. As imposing and special, a planet without its heart is only a massive rock.

‘I don’t know how or why, but this bastard is more dangerous than anything I imagined. Could it be the famous COD? He has the stuff of it anyway.’ As he mumbled these words, he slowly raised his hand to his mouth and bit his thumb, letting a single drop of his blood float in front of him.

‘It’s a shame to have accelerated my redevelopment plans, but it wouldn’t be so bad if I faced the final boss right here.’ He whispered with a little sneaky smile.

[I am black, I am the darkness, I am the only black spot that exists everywhere and nowhere.

The drop of blood slowly turns from red to black as soon as Alvine has begun his incantation.

[I corrupt everything I touch, feel, see, hear, and taste. By my command, the universe bows and bends to my will and desires. – Universal laws of materialization, first shape: God’s slayer scyth–

Current planet, year, days, unknown.

lightsnοvεl.cοm “Hurry up, we don’t have all day in front of us!” Guiding the troops of several million women to a gigantic black mass that floated above a pink planet with the same color as Fraydja’s planet, Elena roars with swollen air.

Just as Askald said, Elena was currently on a mission to the planet where the rest of Tifania’s army resided.

But the next moment, she froze, following the sudden appearance of thousands of ships similar to those that appeared on Fy’s planet.

But Instead of panic, her face suddenly deformed following the appearance of a euphoric smile.

“I knew that they were going to act, but from seeing that they are so determined, HAHAHAH… it honors me so much that I–! Huh!?

She stopped halfway through her sentence when she noticed a black sail manifesting above her and everyone else.

‘Don’t tell me that…-

[Let yourself go, Elena, it’s an order I give you, don’t discuss it, don’t debate it, let yourself be swallowed with everyone.]

Hot smoke escapes through her ears when Alvine’s words resonate in her mind.

Embarrassment? No, no, less than that; but quite the contrary.

-BOOOOMMM!!

Her aura explodes like a tsunami around her body in the same second.

She bent her knees followed by a giant crater that formed under her feet ’cause of the force she put in her tendons.

“Haha-haha-haha… my dear lord, I don’t know what you’re crafting, but it’s out of the question for me to step aside when everything starts to go in my direction. No, it’s not even imaginable to let you fight only.” She shouted before jumping straight towards the shady sail overlooking the planet and plunging it into a perpetual night.

-Swoosh!!

An aberration, going in the opposite direction of the waves, were the words that defined her unpredictable temperament when it came to obeying Alvine.

It didn’t start here, she was the only one to follow Alvine deeply believing that she was going to have a blast.

Naturally, Alvine having spent centuries in her company knew her very well.

Thus, before she reached the black sail, chains one meter wide whistled towards her, chaining her like a wild beast having lost all her reasoning.

“Oh, I see, so I have to fight you to make my way? It’s perfect, I just wanted to stretch my body before starting.” She mumbles in her sadistic smile while contracting her muscles.

This simple action of her breaks the chains around her body as if they were mere strings and continues her piercing toward the sky.

While she was fighting Alvine in a battle of wear and tear despite unfathomable distances separating them, the latter would smile sneakily on the pseudo-planet without forgetting to face the unwanted guest who came to him without making an appointment.

[… – Universal laws of materialization, first shape: God’s slayer scyth–

He stops clearly in his incantation, more precisely, he was forced to stop when he saw a dark spot manifesting between his hand and his black blood before swallowing it in one go.

‘…’

Slowly, strange phenomena followed one after the other, starting with the ships, which swarmed the night sky, disappearing suddenly and inconceivably.

In the same second, the black sphere, barely competing with a baseball, turns into immaculate white.

‘Oh, he wants to show me that he didn’t come here to fight?’ When he sees these strange anomalies follow one another in a timed and harmonious rhythm, he comes up with this conclusion.

[The darkness? Yes, that’s what I was thinking, darkness.]

Suddenly, Alvine sees a man dressed in white with short black hair, and eyes darker than his own, slowly landing towards him.

‘Huh?’ Alvine immediately frowned when he saw that the guy was dressed in a white businessman suit black tie, and black sunglasses that he wore on his eyes while everything was black around them.

[Who am I? Why am I here? Hundreds surely the question you have to ask yourself, Alvine Dragnar.]

‘…Huh?’ Alvine squints his eyes, unable to know if he should take the guy in a white black tie suit seriously or if he should just consider his statements as bad jokes. ‘And yet, this is not the question I am currently asking myself. What I want to know above all is yes or no this guy that Azalea called–

[COD? – Huhu… No, I’m not COD. Why would I be? Alvine, would I have overestimated your level of intelligence? Or maybe I underestimated my intelligence?]

Alvine’s eyes blink for themselves following the man’s assertions. ‘There, it gets interesting.’ He murmured while keeping silent.

Although he mumbled these words and lots of other questions, he was still impassive, even after the strange entity was able to end up guessing some of his thoughts.

‘I know that he is not powerful enough to make a forced intrusion into my thoughts. But despite everything, his power is prodigious, enough to make me want to fight with him. It’s a shame, but he must fulfill his role above all; it’s all the more profitable for us and my enemies.’

At the same time, the man landed in front of him, on the same round and greyish ‘mountain’ where Alvine was.

He then looks at Alvine with his all-black dark pupils before asking him a question that is no less confusing than the previous ones.

“Tell me, young man, you, who refuse to accept the role I assigned you, are you happy at the moment?”

“…Happy?” Alvine unconsciously repeats this word while looking around him.

“Yes, this is just a question I want to ask you; to satisfy one of my curiosities. It goes without saying that you have lived a good life so far, don’t you think?”

“… A good life, huh… no, I don’t feel like it. Finally, let’s start with the presentations; in my experience, it’s the b-a-ba of a conversation.” He proposed without looking away from his guest.

‘Ask my feelings when I’m alone on an extinct planet, I don’t know what he thinks but it’s surprising to see him ask me so seriously; I can no longer identify his intentions and motivations.’ He mumbles himself once again while remaining strangely calm.

“To Let me introduce myself? It’s impossible. Look, if you were attentive even a little bit, you could have found the answer to this question. You’re really an idiot, Alvine.”

Alvine frowns and asks for a regular rhythm. “The answer? Do you mean that I’m omniscient?”

The man looks at his left hand before smiling slightly, guessing that Alvine was accumulating his aura in the same hand.

“Huhuhu… Omniscient? No, that’s impossible. Look, how does someone as stupid as you dare to believe that he is omniscient? That’s impossible, Alvine Dragnar; after all, you know absolutely nothing. There is no more ignorant than you. Even ordinary monkeys know who I am.” He declared with a contemptuous and haughty air.

“I see; but in this case, since you already know that I’m not a light bulb, so what are you waiting for to introduce yourself?” Always indifferent to the host’s provocations, Alvine asks this question.

“Kheh! It’s a shame, this mistrust in the face of a stranger. I don’t have horns as far as I know, yet you’re about to attack me; make sure you spare me. I may be smarter than anyone else, but I’m not more powerful than you, but you know it. Unless you watch out to intimidate your creator while he’s weak; it’s cowardice, Alvine Dragnar.”

“…”

“Yes, I also know that you are a coward, I know it ‘cause I know everything.”

“…”

“Yes, absolutely everything.”

“…”

Seeing Alvine remain silent in the face of his remarks, he crosses his arms and nods his head twice. “I forgot to introduce myself, but it doesn’t matter; unlike you, I am omnipresent and omniscient; despite being incomplete.”

‘…Incomplete: he just said.’ Alvine keeps these words in mind.

“What do you mean by you’re omniscient? You’re still not going to tell me clichés like–

“Yes, I’ll say it, Alvine; I know everything, I am the darkness and I am Raphael, after all.” He retorts with a sneaky smile that slightly displays his rows of zigzagging teeth.

“Raphaël? TSS~ So rude as nicknames.”

-Smirk.

“I know you were going to say that. You hate to see people give themselves the title of god. But from my point of view, you can’t despise them so much without having a good reason.

-Look, if you refuse to be called ‘god’, it is your right and it is completely legitimate; I respect it. But why do you persist in preventing others from posing as me? Isn’t this aberrant illogical? After all, it’s up to me to get angry to see insects give themselves the title intended for me; if only to establish balance.”

“…”

‘He talked about balance, exactly as Azalea explained. But if it’s not him COD, who is then?’

“So if you ask me to introduce myself, I would answer you with a few words: I am the absolute balance, the mediator of this war that my two children are about to deliver, and finally, I am a fragment of COD.”
