"By the way, it's surprising you didn't reject that possibility~"
After giving Ning Feng a thorough once-over, Ariana resumed her usual languid demeanor and teased:
"It seems you're not as honest as you claim!"
Ning Feng rejected Ariana's suggestion, but did not rule out the possibility of such a thing happening.
Could this be considered a kind of hypocrisy, where one party has to do both?
With his expression relaxing, Ning Feng put the black cat back on his shoulder and complained:
What's the point of setting a goal that might embarrass me? Why should I reject that possibility?
One should be pragmatic and not daydream, but one should not even give up the right to dream.
Because you feel there's no hope now, you don't even want to think about it?
That kind of life is so boring.
For example, when you're not hungry, a bowl of fried rice looks plain and unappetizing, and you don't feel like eating it at all.
But when you're starving, this fried rice suddenly becomes incredibly tempting, making you exclaim how delicious it is.
But back then, if someone casually remarked, "Didn't you say you'd rather die than eat that?"...
That would be so embarrassing.
Therefore, in order to prevent that day from ever happening, Ning Feng decided to accept all possibilities of the future.
As someone who used to complete all side quests and collect everything in games, Ning Feng can accept anything as long as the plot isn't too outrageous.
Besides, although Dr. Lin is currently out of my league, what if one day...
Right?
Ning Feng shrugged, silently expressing his stance.
What if?
People should still dream; what if their dreams come true someday?
As if it had grown onto Ning Feng's shoulder, the black cat swayed with the rise and fall of his shoulder without any discomfort.
"You seem to have changed a bit? How should I put it, you're not so... cautious anymore?"
Ning Feng didn't seem like the type to say things like that to her before.
Although he has lowered his guard somewhat, he still avoids direct confrontation and instead uses humor and witty remarks to indirectly express his thoughts.
Blinking, Ning Feng also realized the change in his mindset:
"Perhaps, or maybe it's just a slight relief."
Having stepped from an ordinary person into the world of awakened beings, it would be a lie to say that Ning Feng felt a sense of relief.
Now that Ning Feng finally has some free time, he can observe the changes in himself.
At this point, Ning Feng's situation underwent a significant change:
Race: Half-Succubus (Male)
Age: 22
Status: Full of energy (blessed)
Strength: First-tier Awakener
Lineage: Bloodline Succubus
Talents: Photographic memory, multitasking, corrupted charm, inferior demonic body
Abilities: Tactical Planning (Advanced), Performance (Advanced), Eloquence (Advanced), General Weapon Proficiency (Intermediate), Stealth (Intermediate), Regeneration (Intermediate), Camouflage, Whip Proficiency (Intermediate)...
Special abilities: Bewitching creatures, Succubus's Kiss.
Title: Succubus Hunter
Compared to his previous mixed-race human race, Ning Feng has now completely abandoned humanity and arrived in a world of half-humans.
Half-succubus, that sounds rather mysterious.
In addition to improvements to some basic abilities, two talents and two special abilities have been added.
[Degenerate Charm: You exude an aura that draws people in, making them more likely to believe your claims and more easily attracted to you.]
[Low-level demonic body: Offers some resistance to electric shocks, fire, acid, and venom; enhances flesh regeneration capabilities.]
Putting aside the somewhat frivolous and decadent allure, Ning Feng had a strange feeling just by looking at that demonic body.
"Hiss... I seem to have a real talent for becoming a leader in certain special service industries?"
These resistances seem a bit off...
This doesn't seem to be an illusion!
[Charm Creature: Consumes a certain amount of energy to actively influence the mind of a creature. Upon success, it controls the creature's mind for five minutes. The stronger the resistance, the weaker the effect.]
[The Succubus's Kiss: A burning and corrupting kiss that leaves a succubus's mark deep within the other's soul.]
The alluring creatures seem quite easy to understand; they give you the feeling of finding a phone with a mysterious app installed, and you can think of many uses for them.
The second succubus kiss is somewhat ambiguous; what is the purpose of leaving the mark?
Moreover, this special ability is difficult to test... because he doesn't have anyone to test its effects with.
As for the title "Succubus Hunter," there was no hint whatsoever. It's unclear whether it's just for show or if we're not yet capable of understanding it.
"...Why do I feel like I've forgotten something?"
What is it?
Glug glug...
As if deliberately reminding Ning Feng, a bubbling sound emanated from his shadow, and a beautifully packaged book slowly emerged from it.
Wow!
"Are you the legendary Dingdang Immortal?"
"Huh? What did you say about staring at the crotch? Ugh, how annoying~"
"…………"
Without responding, Ning Feng began examining the Book of the Forgotten Ones, which imprisoned the succubus's soul.
Everything else remains the same; only a new page has been turned upside down.
[The Succubus's Poem: A fallen soul is imprisoned here, longing to one day see the light of day again.]
Um?
What are you doing?
Now they even have props to add fun, is this really a service industry?
I offer a one-stop service, right?
Although the Succubus Poems seem useless now, Ning Feng has a feeling that if he continues to imprison souls within them, something different will definitely happen in the future.
After examining himself, Ning Feng had a preliminary understanding of his current strength; the remaining details would have to be explored gradually later.
Based on the information available now, it certainly can't be considered bad.
But to say he's relaxed right now, he's not actually that relaxed.
He could have had a moment of peace, but before Ning Feng could even enjoy it, his pitiful sense of superiority was shattered by a suddenly appearing fifth-tier expert.
Hey bro, stop showing off. The outside world is much scarier than you think.
Don't stop!
We need to become stronger.
How to advance to the second level has become the new challenge:
"How can I improve from here? Continuing to hunt succubi to obtain their blood probably won't change anything, but it feels like something's missing..."
Ning Feng had a feeling that things weren't that simple...
What's missing?
The black cat noticed Ning Feng's expression, and its face turned strange and amused. It patted its bewildered little brother on the shoulder.
"You figured it out so quickly? That's right, a succubus needs to meet other conditions to advance to the second tier~"
"Don't worry~ it's not difficult at all!"
A bright smile appeared on her lips as she whispered:
"It's just that..."
"It only requires you to corrupt a pure soul."
