King of succubus

Chapter 387 Back To The Wall.





"Among all the others, you are the last person I want to meet right now," Reha pronounced these words hostilely, looking at Alvine like a predator watching for her prey.

"...Give me a good reason that proves to me that you are not an enemy." Alvine didn't consider her threats; he asked instead the question that concerned him most.

"That's the best! Do you dare to ask me this question despite all the unforgivable actions that your men have committed through your fault?! Do I have to understand that your arrogance has no limit?!" Reha's rage was such that she could no longer control her murderous aura that roared at Alvine like a calamity monster.

But the latter was always calm.

And instead of answering her question or attempt at intimidation, he focused on his environment, staring at the monarchs and Zenof individually.

Seeing the doubts in Zenof's eyes, Alvine didn't take long to decide.

"Sigh, seeing your rage, I can guess it's not simulated. But on the other hand, it's only now that I realize that my decision was like a declaration of war. But Reha, you seem to have forgotten something. I never intended to steal anything from you." Alvine sighed, exhausted while feeling that his brain would self-explode since he reappeared in the room.

"..." Reha also frowns when she sees his expression and exhaust that she could not understand.

"I had decided solely to shelter mine before Feyre's men attacked them in my absence. And I had done my best so that you could leave unscathed without her suspecting anything. But why did the help you were supposed to give me suddenly become that?! Have you ever wondered about the reasons that led me to make this decision?" He continued while regularly massaging his left temple with his index and middle finger.

"...Whatever the circumstances, we are destined to become enemies."

"Hey, stop pissing me off with this story of destiny. Do you think I am your enemy because your existence is based on an attribute contrary to mine?" Alvine's angry voice roared in the heavens as he became increasingly frustrated by Reha's stubbornness.

But the latter was still as inexpressive as during her first meeting with Alvine.

"No, it has nothing to do with it. The people you consider part of your family must come back to me. - To recreate my domain, I have to reverse the creation process, but I doubt you will leave them to me even if I gently ask you." She briefly explains her motivations.

"What do you mean by recreating your domain?"

"Of course, you know what I'm referring to when discussing that. So, will you be ready to give me back the children that your subordinates brought with them? Including little Sabrina and the others."

"..."

"Sigh, do you now understand why one of us has to give in to the other? Just like you, who is not ready to give up his own, I am also not in the mood to give up my--

"Why do you want to kill them so much? It's not like if-

-Sigh, you're right; I can't abandon them for such a wacky reason. You gave them the right to live, but their lives don't belong to you. This choice is up to them, and no matter their choices, I'd be with them." He retorted in a firm and non-negotiable voice.

"...I see, so you give me no choice but to take care of your case here and now." She said, showing her emerald green sword in her right hand.

"...Sigh, it's a shame; I'd have liked to count you among my allies; it's unfortunate to see you so stubborn." Alvine also acquired by showing two long scythes five meters in his two hands.

-DOOM!!

The moment after, the surrounding aura weighed down, followed by the vanishing of the two silhouettes.

-Swhooshh-Grab!

But just before the two attacked each other, Feyre intervened between them by stopping the two attacks without too much effort.

"You are really stupid." She murmured these words and stared at them as if looking at two idiots.

"Get out of there!" Reha was the first to say what the two had on the tip of their tongues.

But despite their overwhelming auras, she remained inflexible and pushed them back the second after.

"Do you think it's time to waste your time with this ridiculous game as your enemies prepare to wage a total war against you? How stupid are you?" She continued with dark eyes.

"..."

"..."

'Sigh, if these two intended to fight each other, I wouldn't have the slightest chance of getting away unscathed. I don't know by what mysterious way, but this guy suddenly became stronger beyond all imagination. I know it's related to the other mysterious guy who had taken control of his body, but I don't even know if he is still possessed by one of his monarchs or not.' She whispered as she focused on Alvine.

"...Sigh, it's true that I wanted to check if she was serious by saying she wanted to kill me.

While speaking, Alvine's two weapons turned into a black mist and disappeared by merging with his shadow.

Following that, he continued.

"But I think she's trying to confirm some things. Finally, even if I have vague memories of a distant past, everything is not yet clear. So I can't know what she wants without her telling me exactly."

"So, you got what you were looking for on little Serena's planet? Does that mean that you accepted this woman's offer?" She frowns while pointing her sword toward Feyre.

"...Wha- What do I have to do with this?!" Feyre's tension also rises by noticing Reha's hostility towards her.

"I didn't conclude anything with her. Finally, it's unimportant; I don't see how it concerns you. Among all the others, I think Linn is the closest to you; I'm talking about your hiding. Instead of telling me exactly what you want, you continue to act incomprehensibly." Alvine ignored Feyre's complaints and focused on Reha.

"..."

Seeing her silent and undecided, he no longer insisted on her.

"Since you don't want to say anything, let's continue our old agreement. When I have finished ingesting all the information I have just acquired, I will come here so we can finish it once and for all." He made this proposal with intrepid eyes that testified to his seriousness.

"..."

With these last words, the same type of portal appeared behind Alvine.

*Follow him.* At the same time, Reha's voice echoed in Zenof's head.

“??” Despite the latter's confusion, he didn't dare to challenge the orders of his superior.

On the other hand, neither Alvine nor Feyre stopped Zenof, who slipped into his dimensional portal before it closed in on itself.

"Your Highness, can we trust you?" Corrupt asked with his metallic voice.

"...Sigh, it's not a question of trust. Whether we want it or not, he and I have common interests in this cooperation; it is, therefore, not by choice but by necessity. Just like him, who waits for me to grant my promise, I also wait for him to fulfill his. It's the reason that forces us to take the path of peace, probably."

---

"Heepha, did you manage to contact the lord?"

"No, no matter how many attempts, I can't reach him. It's probably due to disturbances related to a high-ranking artifact." Heepha responds in a sad voice with dark eyes.

She had regained her childish form after her battle against her enemies.

The two were at the intermediate level of the castle, accompanied by Zakiel, who stood a little further from them with the trios (Luna, Greed, and Darka).

"Sigh, it's frustrating. I don't like to stay here and don't--

"The lord's orders were clear; we had accomplished our mission by bringing the survivors on this planet." Heepha interrupted him before he ended his complaints.

"I know, I know, but the energy of this place is too high for such weak beings to survive. I don't know which fly stung you by teleporting only the residents without the whole city with them." Shadow retorted these words by looking at her with irritation.

"...I know, but I had no choice. In addition, I had planned that you would have finished your task when you sent me Stella to tell me you would take care of it."

"Sigh, I had underestimated this girl; she had hidden from us that she could use her transcendental authority through an artifact. If she didn't have this damn book, I could have saved everyone and welcomed the people you sent here before some died because of the unbearable energy."

Unlike Shadow, who had teleported the entire city with a barrier, Heepha prioritized people's survival rather than the whole town as Shadow had done.

At first glance, Heepha's strategy seemed to be the right one since it had been able to bring most of the people to the original planet safely.

But this wasn't the case when they arrived; even though the people she had brought were experienced mages, the weakest of whom were at the rank of the emperor, the energy and pressure of the planet where the night constantly reigns was not made for them.

They found it difficult to withstand the pressure, and the atmosphere that was unsuitable for them, which resulted in victims.

It was also one of the reasons that forced them to retreat to come and help Luna and her gang to save the residents of Alzania and put them in a safe place in the city that Shadow had done everything to teleport.

Being covered by an independent barrier, the residents of Alvine’s kingdom on the planet of Fraydja didn't have this problem.

Even if Shadow had more losses than Heepha, the latter also had equivalent losses after she teleported the natives directly to the planet without taking precarious measures, as Shadow had done.

"Sigh, things will soon become eventful," Shadow murmured aloud as he looked through the window of the city of more than ten kilometers of the square area next to the castle with dismay.

"I know, so far, this planet's beasts have not manifested themselves because they are frightened, but by feeling so many weak beings nearby, they will soon reapply. I don't know how long we can stand in the face of a horde made up only of beasts whose lowest level competes with primordial beings." Heepha also nods while frowning.

"... Well, since things are like this, it may be time to call on my troops who were sealed with the little fairy. They haven't really regained their powers, but I have no alternative but to use--

"Don't talk nonsense, Shadow. The best thing is to wait for the lord to come. And if the situation became uncontrollable, I would serve as a shield while you keep your strength for future battles." Heepha cut him off before he finished his sentence.

"Unfortunately, even if I don't like to admit it, your species is stronger than mine; if it were not thanks to the powers of the shadow that we inherited from the lord, we would not be there now. That's why you will be used more for the lord than me. All we have to do is find a way to free your subordinates. So that--

"It's unfortunate, but I don't have the power to free my subordinates. Unlike yours, who were sealed in the fairy domain (Reha), mine are sealed on our planet. And since it's the lord's work, I don't have the power to revoke the seal. And the lord is far from acquiring his power of before. Alone, I can't do what you and your squad will be able to accomplish." She interrupts him for the second time.

But knowing what she was referring to, Shadow could not refute her words. All he could do to answer Heepha was a heavy sigh followed by an embarrassing silence.

"It's off to a bad start; we lack time. If only we had one of the monarchs with us, perhaps even this crazy and bloodthirsty, she would save us enough time or maybe even help me lift the lord's seal." Heepha expressed herself with dreamy eyes.

"Ugh, I think Askald is better than his sister to manage such a situation. At least, he has a brain not to think about killing alone."

"Haha, you may be right. Meh, the reality is before us; it's up to us to take on this task until the days when they will be among us. The members of the supreme order are not problems in themselves, as long as their superiors don't get involved."

"It's true, given how arrogant they are, I don't think they will move for us. But what bothers me in this mess is the person who falsified my memories. I think they are part of the rebels!"
