Chapter 2: New Century (Epilogue)
“Since that’s the case, I’ll try to heal her. But don’t blame me if I accidentally kill her.”
Ms. (M) first stacked her shield.
“Don’t worry, just heal her. I’ll figure out a way to deal with it. If you kill her, I’ll take responsibility!”
Nobody Does Human Things (M) patted his chest, looking completely unfazed.
So Ms. (M) didn’t hesitate any longer.
She gently raised her hand and cast a healing skill on the unconscious succubus lying on the haystack.
A soft white light merged into the succubus’s body. The players held their breath, watching the succubus’s HP bar. When they saw it slowly begin to increase, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
It was good that she could be healed.
When the succubus’s HP recovered to a quarter.
The grapefruit-sized wound on her chest had basically healed, and her breathing became deep.
“Ugh… Damn it…”
Elizabeth slowly woke up. The moment she opened her eyes, she saw four large faces staring at her, and even a Venom Dragon?
This unique lineup made her a little confused.
However, as a battle-hardened succubus, she wasn’t scared by the sight. She was merely a little astonished.
Elizabeth began to analyze the current situation.
Three men, one woman, and one dragon.
She could charm all three men and control them to kill the woman and the dragon.
As for why her charm had failed before, Elizabeth speculated that it was because she hadn’t absorbed vital energy for a long time, causing her Abyssal Dem to be insufficient.
Otherwise, how could she explain that the three men were charmed in the tavern, but only broke free after walking for a while outside?
The effect of charm was related to Abyssal Dem.
It was also related to the succubus herself and the casting distance. If the succubus’s allure was strong enough, the charm would naturally be more effective.
With this thought, Elizabeth tugged at her tattered clothes, revealing a bit of cleavage, and then lifted her sore shoulder, trying to be enticing.
She bit her red lips, looking pitiful.
Her eyes lit up with pink light again.
This time, the distance was so close, and she was dressed so revealingly. She should be able to firmly control these three men, right?
“My dear little brothers~ I’ve been captured by the dragon and this woman. Could you help me and save me?”
“If you save me, I’ll be yours~”
“Even if there are three of you… it’s… it’s okay~”
Ms. (M): “……(≖_≖ )”
Yan: “……(≖_≖ )”
“I would be delighted to serve you, beautiful lady~”
(Player Name) (M) gave a infatuated smile. He planned to toy with this naive succubus.
However, Call Me Arin (Male) next to him had already swung a large slap.
“Slap!”
Two succubus teeth, tinged with blood, flew out.
Elizabeth’s already swollen pretty face became visibly red and swollen again.
“You… you…”
“Slap!”
Another two teeth.
“What about you? What about you?”
“Don’t you know your seductive posture is disgusting?”
“I’m about to puke!”
“You’re a demon, why don’t you work out?”
“Why don’t you have muscles!?”
“Trash!”
Call Me Arin (Male) cursed loudly. Everyone could see the deep disappointment in his eyes.
It was the disappointment of wishing someone could do better.
“I was originally looking forward to this battle.”
“But your weakness has disappointed me.”
“If the mission didn’t require you to be alive, I would have already killed you.”
Elizabeth’s expression shifted from astonishment to stupor, and from stupor to terror. She couldn’t understand what kind of humans these were at all.
She was a succubus!
How could any male human resist the charm of a succubus?
And he was saying such inexplicable things to her.
Shouldn’t he be doting on her, saying sweet nothings like, “My treasure, I will die for you”?
Was this man actually a woman disguised as a man?
Elizabeth thought as she glanced at Call Me Arin (Male)’s bare chest and crotch.
No problem there!
He was a man!
She gritted her teeth, and her eyes blazed with an even more brilliant pink light. At this moment, her HP dropped by half.
The charm was obtained by over-exhausting her body.
Even if she were facing a male Giant Dragon, it would take a hundred nights before they could leave!
However, this was just Elizabeth’s naive fantasy.
Reality is often cruel.
“Slap!”
Call Me Arin (Male) didn’t say a word and landed another huge slap.
“Unrepentant!”
“Slap!” Another huge slap.
“Stubborn!”
Just as Call Me Arin (Male) was about to continue hammering the succubus’s soul to teach her what a proper succubus should be like.
Nobody Does Human Things (M) couldn’t stand it any longer.
He grabbed Call Me Arin (Male)’s arm.
“Let me go! What kind of demon doesn’t have a muscular physique?”
“Stop hitting her, brother! We just managed to save her, and you’re going to kill her again!”
Call Me Arin (Male) snorted and threw off Nobody Does Human Things (M)’s hand, but he didn’t continue to beat the succubus.
He walked to the side and sat down on a rock with his legs spread wide. He stared ominously at the trembling succubus, as if looking at a sheepskin that had been stripped bare, waiting to be slaughtered.
However, Call Me Arin (Male)’s beating had a surprisingly good effect on the succubus.
The succubus curled up there, trembling, having long forgotten her identity as a demon.
Actually, Elizabeth didn’t want this either.
But these humans couldn’t be charmed!
She had lost her only weapon, making it difficult to use any offensive skills, and she couldn’t even resist.
What could she do? She was also desperate.
“Miss Succubus, I believe you know how formidable we are. Now, answer our questions. Don’t say anything irrelevant, understand?”
Nobody Does Human Things (M) sat next to Call Me Arin (Male), looking lazy.
He played with his musket, sweeping its muzzle over various parts of the succubus’s body.
A single shot could kill this succubus.
Elizabeth herself felt the fatal threat from this small object.
Every time the dark, cylindrical object was aimed at her head and heart.
She always had the illusion that she could be killed at any moment.
This feeling of hovering between life and death made her incredibly terrified, and her fear grew even more.
“You can ask. Don’t kill me, I… I’ll tell you everything…”
“Very good! Thank you for your cooperation, Miss Succubus. If your answers satisfy us, perhaps we’ll let you go.”
Nobody Does Human Things (M) clapped his hands, a friendly and menacing smile on his face.
“How many demons have come to Cyberi Town? When did you arrive, and why? Have you done anything bad!?”
Faced with the human’s question, Elizabeth’s eyes flashed red, and instinctively, she wanted to use her charm skill.
But when she saw the fierce and imposing figure beside her, especially those cruel eyes, she immediately suppressed her instinct.
She didn’t want to get slapped twice more.
“…There are only three of us demons… Besides me, there’s a Horned Demon Commander and a Mind Flayer. They are currently staying in room 217 of the Morning Wind Inn in Cyberi Town…”
“We are here on a mission to escort a horse peddler to Winter City. This mission has been completed, and we are now preparing the materials for a Teleportation Gate to return to the Abyss.”
“That’s all… I don’t know anything else. Please, don’t kill me. I’m just a small succubus, I…”
Before Elizabeth could finish speaking, a stick hit the back of her head.
Nobody Does Human Things (M) withdrew the stick he used to “hammer” the succubus’s soul. Then, he took out a rope from his backpack.
“Remove her limbs, gag her mouth, and tie her up. We’ll go find the other two demons and take them all down, then return to Winter City~”
