Chapter 43: Infrastructure: Succubus's Provocation [VIP]
"What on earth do you want to do!"
Xiao Yun raised his voice: "Answer me!"
[——What do I want to do? What do you think I want to do?]
The succubus opened her mouth and looked at Xiao Yun as if mocking him, her hands continuously making obscene movements.
I fell in love with you at first sight and wanted to spend the night with you no matter what. I tried everything to get into your bed and scheme against you.
[Succubus are low-level creatures, and their intelligence is generally low. Tonight's trick is the most advanced trap I can think of.]
The succubus pouted, trying hard to look cute and coquettish.
"You make me sick."
【nausea? 】
The succubus made a shrill sound.
[Lucien, this is the face of your brother, the one you care about the most. How can you feel disgusted?]
"It is precisely because Yaris is the brother I care about the most that I cannot allow you to use his face to do such obscene and despicable things in my dreams!"
[Oh… I see… It's really uncomfortable to be so similar~ I'll adjust it a little~]
The succubus raised her hands not in shame but in pride, starting from the cheeks and stroking them smoothly.
As his slender, white fingers brushed across her features, already reminiscent of a peerless beauty, they completely shed all traces of masculinity. A suspicious dampness clouded her mysterious, deep black eyes, and a teardrop mole appeared beneath her vulgar, frivolous eyes. Her rosy lips gleamed with a sensual glow. Her long, straight, satin-like hair twisted into serpentine curls, falling loosely on her smooth shoulders, sweeping across the newly formed, almost shimmering, fullness of her chest, making her slender waist seem even more slender...
How does it look like now?
The succubus toyed with her hair, twisting it here and there with great interest.
This body was made for me by my previous owner. I love it, but the old man doesn't. He likes things that feel high-end and seem out of his reach.
"I know you're laughing at me in your heart right now, thinking I have low taste. Feel free to laugh out loud, I won't be angry at all."
After all, I'm just a lowly succubus, unable to be like your brother... He possesses both unparalleled beauty and the pride and wisdom to match. Even after being chosen as a whore of the gods, he maintains his pride and elegance, as if he weren't a pet imprisoned in a golden cage called the Solar Empire, but the ruler of the entire planet.
The sweet voice suddenly became serious and old, and the moist and sticky body of a mollusk revealed a hard and cold texture like a marble sculpture.
A strange, exotic aroma filled the air.
"--What did you say?"
Xiao Yun sat up straight. The black magician who assigned the succubus to approach him finally couldn't bear it anymore.
"I say... your brother is a very special being. His intelligence is so extraordinary that he saw through everything in the world from a very young age. Tormented by the loneliness of a genius, he used his body as a bargaining chip to obtain the secrets of the world from the gods. This act completely deprived his already fragile body of its freedom, turning him into a beautiful bird trapped in a golden cage. And you are the only one in the world who can obtain the secrets of the world from him."
"So you arranged for the succubus to approach me, hoping to obtain the secrets of the world from my brother?"
[As expected of his elder brother's younger brother, he clarified the truth in just a few words.]
"Your succubus's IQ is too low. She exposed herself after just a few words of conversation."
Romila is truly foolish. He constantly tries to steal my things and sneak out, but he doesn't realize that every successful theft and escape comes with my tacit approval. I deliberately let him run wild, and his stupidity and greed always bring me unexpected rewards.
(Why do I feel like your IQ is a bit...)
Xiao Yun secretly complained.
"This time—"
[This time it’s the same as l.]
With the succubus's body as the center, a strong and terrifying aura like the dark tide surging from the depths of hell expanded unscrupulously in the room, squeezing Xiao Yun.
You brothers are one of the few things in this world that I find valuable... When my eyes first fell on your brother, his beauty and wisdom captivated me, even though he was spoiled, arrogant, willful, and easily bored... Perhaps it was precisely because of his consistently bad temper, his arrogance, his capriciousness, and his ruthlessness that I was even more drawn to him.
(Are you a masochist?)
Xiao Yun secretly complained.
【But now, I think you are more interesting. 】
At first, I didn't care about you at all. Compared to the dazzling and gorgeous Yaris, like Rosa Marie, you were neither bright nor sensible. Your only talents were a beautiful singing voice and a slight ability to revisit your soul. You were like a bunch of inconspicuous white flowers by the roadside, a chick with an eggshell stuck to its butt. I once thought Yaris doted on you so much, keeping you by his side and taking care of you, simply because he was so lonely and needed someone who would never betray him.
[Until that day... that day... After that day, you became intelligent, hardworking, alert, and sensible, as if you had a new soul. What you couldn't understand was that an incredible power seemed to be dormant in your body, and when it was needed, it would burst out with the magnificent energy of a star.]
(Pulse system, right?)
Now that I think about it, all your unusual qualities began the day you were resurrected from the dead... And Yaris... having seen the past and future of the world from a very young age, Yaris clearly knew you were destined to undergo such an extraordinary transformation. So, before you even showed any signs of unusual development, this cruel monster plotted to kill all your relatives and claim you, still a fledgling, as his own, in the name of a brother.
"What did you say?"
Xiao Yun exclaimed.
(How could Yaris...)
【Don’t you know? 】
Seeing that Lucien's curiosity was piqued, the "succubus" opened its mouth and drew an extremely evil arc.
[Your father, your mother, your grandfather, and your poor cousin, they all died at the hands of Yaris! He wanted to take you for himself, but they wouldn't let him get close to you, so he killed them one by one.]
[First, your father, Grand Duke Elix, died in a perfectly orchestrated accident orchestrated by twelve-year-old Yaris. Then, your mother, poor Lady Alice, was forced to commit suicide by poisoning by Grand Duchess Anna shortly after Grand Duke Elix's death. This action of Grand Duchess Anna was part of Yaris's plan.]
Four years after Lady Alice's death, your grandfather, unable to contain his longing for you, entered Silvermoon Palace as a gardener. Yaris was deeply displeased with him, and that winter, your grandfather accidentally fell into the water and died. After his death, your fourteen-year-old cousin, Milia, sought your help, and you brought her to Yaris. In front of you, Yaris tenderly took in the helpless Milia. However, just a month later, Milia was killed by a mage ordered by Yaris!
This is the real Yaris, a spoiled, willful, and arrogant dark emperor who loves to dress himself up as a saint of light. A born monster. Compared to him, Edmund is nothing more than a baby who hasn't even learned to walk yet.
After eloquently describing the terrifying conspiracy, the black magician waited smugly for Lucien's reaction from the shocked man.
Xiao Yun tightly grasped the crystal amulet on his chest.
(Don't believe him! Yaris is not that kind of person!)
(If Jarris is really as this guy said, a cold-blooded person who murdered his father at the age of twelve, why hasn't he killed Archduchess Anna, who hurt him even more deeply?)
(This is all the Dark Mage's instigation! He's trying to make me hate Yaris and join his side! Help him get the secrets of the world from Yaris!)
"...If you think you can sow discord between my brother and me by making up some despicable lies, you're totally wrong!"
[Really? You really don't believe it at all?]
"I'm sorry to disappoint you!"
Xiao Yun tried his best to appear calm.
(Yaris said that magicians are not only good at using illusions and lies to deceive others, but also deliberately provoke others' intense emotions to achieve their own goals.)
(When dealing with powerful black magicians, one must remain calm and patient at all times, and not let them perceive their true emotions.)
"I have absolute trust in Yaris. Even if he really killed our father, my mother, grandfather, and cousin as you said, he must have had his reasons for doing so! I believe in him, no matter what. He is absolute to me and cannot be doubted!"
"This is my dreamland. As long as I don't agree, you can't get close to me or take me away. So, stop talking nonsense to me. You are destined to get nothing from me."
Damn it! Damn it!
The Black Mage was enraged by Xiao Yun, and his thoughts were churning violently like the abyss.
But then he showed a twisted smile again.
"Okay, tonight's meeting ends here. I'm leaving now, and let Romila continue her silly and ridiculous seduction~"
The strange laughter faded away, the darkness retreated, and the room was once again filled with sticky and lewd air.
[…It’s normal for you, with your noble bloodline, to look down on low-level demonic creatures like succubi, but are you really not considering giving it a try with me?]
The succubus Romilla, who had no idea what had just happened, twisted her fair body and acted extremely flatteringly.
"You're going to Kukuchia to rescue the barbarians who were sold as slaves along the coast. I happen to have a lot of connections and businesses in Kukuchia. If you sleep with me once, I'll give you my Kukuchia properties and help you find the barbarians who have been stranded in Kukuchia's prostitute streets."
Ah, beautiful and noble Master Lucien, please allow me to climb onto your bed. I swear, I will make you feel more comfortable than your brother ever did.
