Chapter 2: New Century (Epilogue)
The succubus’s enchantment could distort human vision, and naturally, it could also distort the sense of smell and taste.
Despite the bloody taste filling her mouth, everything Sakura ate tasted sweet and soft.
The scene of the loli eating a heart was indeed quite sanity-reducing, and Xi Wei watched with great interest.
He had to admit, an adult succubus’s heart was indeed quite effective.
Just halfway through eating, the Heart Puppet Curse debuff in Sakura’s status bar began to flash rapidly. After a burst of wriggling, it disappeared completely, thus the Heart Puppet Curse that had been troubling Sakura was lifted.
Of course, the more troublesome Love Poison Curse and Soul Seizing Curse had not been removed, so Xi Wei could not relax his guard yet, but he already had a plan in mind.
Sakura had devoured the entire succubus heart. Her once delicate and lovely pretty face was now stained with crimson blood. Yet, she wore an expression of gratitude and joy, which looked rather strange.
“Thank you, Your Majesty, King of Winter…”
Sakura raised her small hand to wipe away the tears on her face. However, for some reason, the cream on her hand seemed to spread more and more.
Could it be that the cream from Winter Fort was somehow different?
“Ermmm… you don’t have to thank me too much. You still have two curses to resolve. Please maintain a calm state of mind and don’t commit suicide. Of course, I’ll have to trouble you to stay in your previous room for a while longer.”
At this moment, Sakura’s entire pretty face was covered in bloodstains, and her hands were dripping with blood and bone. Xi Wei couldn’t help but twitch his mouth slightly and quickly made arrangements for Sakura’s future.
“Elizabeth, take Sakura to wash up. End the treatment after she’s done.”
Elizabeth understood Xi Wei’s intention, which was not to let the elf girl in front of her know that she had eaten a succubus’s heart, hence the need for her to accompany her.
What a good master.
Elizabeth couldn’t help but feel a tingle inside.
Such a considerate man was becoming increasingly rare, not to mention how powerful and mighty he was. It was a shame she was no longer pure; otherwise, she would have gladly offered herself and strived to become one of the King of Winter’s women.
These thoughts flashed through Elizabeth’s mind in an instant. Afterward, her gaze fell upon Sakura.
A trace of Abyssal Dem had completely lodged itself within the elf girl’s body. Before long, she would be slowly feminized into a peculiar race, a half-succubus, half-elf.
Perhaps she could nurture this elf girl well, making her a perfect woman in all aspects.
At that time, her master would surely not be stingy with his rewards.
Having already signed a master-servant contract, Elizabeth had no great ambitions left in this life. She just wanted to live peacefully and happily.
Of course, being full was the top priority.
There were still tens of thousands of robust human soldiers under her master’s command, just like before…
At this thought, Elizabeth, who was leading Sakura away, couldn’t help but blush slightly.
***
Having temporarily resolved the matter with Sakura, Xi Wei first went to the dungeons to observe the succubi situation. Just as he had expected.
They had indeed not given up any means of escape, using all their efforts to charm the dungeon guards, even going so far as to strip themselves bare.
Unfortunately, these system-controlled soldiers showed no reaction.
Even when he appeared, a couple of bold succubi actually attempted to charm him?
Did they really think that showing cleavage and doing a split could seduce him, the King of Winter?
What a joke.
After delivering two slaps,
All the succubi became obedient, cowering in the corner of the dungeon like wet quails.
These succubi had a typical bully-the-weak and fear-the-strong personality, making them quite easy to control.
However, Xi Wei did not intend to sign any more master-servant contracts with these succubi.
He only needed to control Elizabeth, one succubus, and then have Elizabeth sign contracts with the others to manage them.
Upon returning to his room, Xi Wei immediately took up his brush and wrote a letter to the Scheming Frog, handing it to a knight for delivery. The time for the expedition was drawing nearer, and all matters had to be basically resolved before then.
Just as he watched the knight leave, the system’s prompt sound suddenly rang out.
[Ding! As a vengeful villain, how can the host remain indifferent to the provocation of the Abyssal Lord, Grand Duke Felton?]
[Special Villain Mission triggered: The host is required to use their available resources to retaliate against the Abyssal Lord, Grand Duke Felton. (Hint: The host can check the newly refreshed System Store ~)]
[The reward for completing the mission will be determined by the extent of the damage inflicted on Grand Duke Felton’s forces.]
“What is this system up to now?”
Xi Wei, somewhat puzzled, opened the System Store as prompted by the system.
It happened to be the beginning of the month, the day the System Store refreshed.
Almost everything inside would be replaced.
He had previously considered retaliating against Grand Duke Felton, but he couldn’t stay in the Abyss for an extended period, nor could he go to the Abyss alone to cause trouble for Grand Duke Felton.
It was a simple truth: although both were Champion Level existences, the opponent was an old monster much closer to Legendary Grade, who had lived for countless years. Not to mention, it was a battle on his home turf.
If he went, it would be akin to seeking death.
However, after cooperating with this silly system for so long, he had figured out that the system would never issue a mission he couldn’t complete. The key to completing the mission undoubtedly lay within the System Store.
As expected, in the first column of the System Store, bold, red-bordered, golden lettering announced three new items, shining with “new,” as if afraid Xi Wei wouldn’t see them.
[Lurking Puppet Virus – Type S]
Possesses a one-week incubation period.
After the incubation period ends, the Lurking Puppet Virus’s parent strain enters a berserk state, with its comprehensive attributes increasing tenfold. Any lifeform attacked by the Lurking Puppet Virus will be infected with the Lurking Puppet Virus – Type A.
Lurking Puppet Virus Type A has an incubation period of only one hour. After the incubation period ends, the infected creature enters a berserk state, with its comprehensive attributes increasing by onefold. Attacks will spread the Lurking Puppet Virus Type A.
Exchanging for Lurking Puppet Virus Type S requires 100,000 Villain Points (one-time only).
(Note: Infected creatures can increase their virus concentration by consuming flesh and blood, eventually reaching higher levels, capped at Type S.)
[Demon Charm Fruit]
After consuming the Demon Charm Fruit, the user will develop an inexplicable attraction to demons. The attraction will be stronger for higher-level demons.
Exchanging for this fruit requires 10,000 Villain Points (one-time only).
[Fixed-Point Teleportation Authority]
Allows for the fixed-point teleportation of a specific lifeform or object to a location within the range of perception. Teleportation to locations outside the range of perception will fail.
Exchanging for Fixed-Point Teleportation Authority requires 50,000 Villain Points (one-time only).
***
After reviewing the System Store’s new arrivals, Xi Wei’s expression was:
Σ(っ °Д °;)っ
Although the three items introduced by the system required a considerable amount of Villain Points, they would undoubtedly cause immense damage to the First Layer of the Abyss.
This was practically a rehash of the T-virus, wasn’t it?
Even to ensure he could precisely deliver the virus near Grand Duke Felton, the system had thoughtfully added the [Demon Charm Fruit] and [Fixed-Point Teleportation Authority].
It really… Xi Wei was about to cry!
“You’re using curses on me, huh…”
A sinister smile spread across Xi Wei’s face.
“Then, in return, it’s only reasonable for me to use viruses on you, right?”
