Arpious of the Planes-Chapter 442 Kingdom Of Frost Rabbits (9)

"Is there anything I can do to make it up to you?" I asked the succubus, but she didn't even look back to reply.

"Yes. Call me by my name. You keep calling me 'babe,' but I want to hear my real name come out of your mouth,"

"Salva," I muttered, and I could see the succubi's pale complexion brighten with a reddish tint.

"Don't give me such a stupid nickname," The succubus muttered, trying to hide her tomato-red face, but I could still see it even from afar.

I just chuckled to myself silently before entering the bedroom. f𝐫𝑒𝗲𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧૦𝘃𝗲l.c𝚘𝘮

…

The next day, a knock came from our front door, but since everybody else was still asleep, I had to go and receive it.

"What is it?" I muttered while slowly creaking open the morning door, making sure not to wake up anybody else in the bedroom.

"Her highness wishes to meet with you," A knight suddenly greeted me with a very condescending tone, but I knew we were in a corrupted place, so I decided not to complain and just followed him out of the hotel.

A carriage sat neatly at the end of the road, where a few people had gathered, but they were mostly knights, guardian every square inch of this vehicle.

"For safety, we will have to pat you down," The guard said, and so I brought up my arms, and her let him search for anything suspicious.

But I was still in my pajamas, so there was absolutely no way I was hiding something from him.

"Okay, please enter," The knight said before a few more knights opened the doors to the fancy carriage where a single frost rabbit sat pretty.

"Oho… So it's you," I muttered, but the rabbit didn't reply as she stared at me, seemingly waiting for something.

"Code," She ordered in a very condescending tone, just like her knights, but I just sucked it up and muttered the thing that the guild master had told me.

"Kilt of Dreams,"

The rabbit smiled before letting the knights outside close the door, giving us complete privacy with a barrier to making sure no sound leaks out.

"So, how do I obtain dirt on this damn kingdom," I muttered, knowing already why this woman was here in front of me.

"Well, I can give you a bunch of scrolls that have all the information, or I can tell it to you verbally. If you get caught, it's your fault," The rabbit announced as if she was trying to test me.

"Tell it to me verbally. I don't want to take any chances of you trying to set me up later on," I replied with an eager smile.

The woman was clearly born of nobility or possibly royalty due to the way she sat, her posture proper, and her face expressionless, not even displaying the slightest twitch.

"Good. But, this is not the reason why I have come. I shall tell you the information if you wish to decline my offer. The guild master has told me about your strength, so join me on my conquest of eradicating these fucking nobles who think they can go around doing whatever they want without the royals looking over their shoulders," The rabbit smiled while putting out her hand for a handshake.

"You… A woman born of royalty shall not make such a face. I knew somebody like you who was ambitious but trust me, at the pinnacle of your strength and power, you will feel great. You will feel unmatched, but once it drops down, you will feel powerless. You will be hungry for more, and it will put your family and yourself in danger… so trust me, it isn't fun," I muttered before the image of the empress flashed before me.

Though, she just got lucky and was able to maintain her position with the help of yours truly… though her past is quite the dark one that she has already forgotten due to magic.

Her trauma was something great that weighed her down, so with the help of my own magic, I erased her memories and replaced them with beautiful ones.

I even slipped some in to increase her intelligence and bond with myself… making her kind of my puppet, but I didn't care.

As long as she was happy, I was happy.

"May I know your identity?" The woman asked, but my eyes squinted as I suddenly felt a familiar presence appear beside her.

"I guess it's only fair if you told yours and I told mine… but first, unveil yourself, Salva. I'm not pulling anything suspicious," I muttered, and all of a sudden, two frost rabbits appeared on the bench the royal woman was sitting on.

"W-What do you want?" The woman asked, but I just smirked slightly as I didn't expect the conversation to go this way.

"Nothing really… I don't even want gold. Let me help you climb to the pinnacle so I can see you fall from grace. I want to see how desperate you'll get," I muttered with a smile, sending shivers down the woman's spine.

"Fine… but I'll prove you wrong," She muttered, and we both shook hands before the door to the carriage blasted open, revealing just the royal rabbit inside.

"W-What happened to the other woman?" The knight asked.

"She's gone… for now. She also didn't tell me her identity… sly woman,"

…

"Did you think I was cheating on you?" I chuckled as both Loath and Salva returned to their normal forms, relaxing on the beds and scooching Arpious to the side.

"N-No!" Salva suddenly shouted back, and her expression made it clearly known that she was worried about me.

"You're so adorable," I muttered while climbing onto the bed and kissing her face ever so gently, while tears of jealousy dripped down her face.

She slightly whined as she pressed her hips against me, unable to even look me in the eyes while doing it.

"Have we made up yet?" I asked her, holding her tightly in my arms.

"Mm,"

"I'll take that as a yes," I chuckled before kissing Salva on the lips and letting Loath join in our cuddle session not too long after.
