King of succubus-Chapter 258 When Alvine Underestimates The Cruelty Of His Subordinates!
"As for the practice of dual cultivation, apart from its basic advantages, such as increasing magic energy to help my partner reach a new level, there are other advantages that I have noticed in my other partners."
"What do you mean by that?" She asked with curious eyes while holding her breath.
Alvine got up from his chair and took two steps before standing in front of her while she was sitting on the bed with a white cushion on her knees on which the orb was placed.
Alvine leans towards her, just a few centimeters between her lips. "Do you want to know what happens next?" He whispered to her while his eyes began to turn to the garnet reds.
"W-What do you think you're doing?" She asked, frowning while slightly blushing.
"Hm? I don't know; maybe I just wanted to see how my charm powers can work on beings like you. But to see such an unexpected result while I push you just a little, I don't know if I should increase the intensity or not." He said, touching Linn's forehead with his, and smiled at her like a predator luring his prey.
'For the first time, I would like to achieve the preparation and collect as many gains as possible. I have really never knowingly practiced dual cultivation so far. Whether with Ashia or Nicco, not to mention Nelda, Yury, and... in short, during all these sessions, I had done nothing but let myself go. But it will be different from now on; now, I will make sure to become greedy.' He said to himself by slightly tilting his head to bait Linn's lips from a few light contacts of his own.
At the same time, he could notice Linn's irregular breathing and her cheeks becoming redder and redder, thanks to his magical perception. 'Sigh, if everything could be as easy for me as baiting the opposite sexes, I wouldn't be here to play with other women. Ugh, just thinking about my vampire queen, I have goosebumps.' He then said to himself that Lilliana's image had come back to his head.
But instead of acting like a loyal gentleman, he focused on the benefits of the winnings he would collect with Linn.
Thus, without hesitation, he seized Linn's trembling lips with his own, made a little kiss on this last, and kissed her slowly while following her cadence as a beginner.
Then, Alvine pushed her slightly on the bed and gradually accelerated their kissing cadences.
Immediately, Linn could feel, apart from the gentleness, euphoric and intoxicating complexity, she could also feel Alvine formed the link of his energy-sharing competence again that he had broken with her.
Once again, like the first time, she could feel the thread of harmless energy make its way to her central dan-tian, who also served as a pipe point for her magical power.
After performing the preliminary that he had never done before, making dual cultivation, Alvine breaks his kiss with her while smiling with satisfaction.
'Heh~, I can finally contemplate this expression you had never shown. It's crazy how beautiful these people are. Whether it's her, Sabrina, Ferda, or even this crazy Serena, they have no equal in their feminine charms and beauty.' He said to Himself while staring at Linn's eyes, which had strangely turned golden in the place of starry blue as usual.
"Don't be wary of the skill I just used on you. It's necessary if I want my skill also to affect you to erase the curse." He announces to her, seeing the confusion in her eyes.
After that, he walked away from her and to the other corner of his bedroom, where a pair of leather boots were placed.
"But was it necessary to do this?!" After regaining her spirits, Linn touched her lips as if she didn't believe what just had happened.
'I didn't think his charm powers were so high to the point of assigning me with so much ease. This guy will be harder to manage than this Galiel bastard if he reaches a higher rank! Even if I had let my guard down, how could I be easily influenced by his charm?!' As her thoughts wandered, she suddenly realized the most important.
"Why did you stop? Didn't you intend to heal me?"
"Huh? Don't worry about that; since my cultivation is in its delicate phase, I don't want to be imprudent without knowing the side effects. Once I have completed all the processes and drilled into the divine rank, I will take care of your case."
"What?! I hope it's a joke!? You still don't think I'll wait two to three years to heal, do you?"
"Ugh, why would that be a problem? Didn't you advise me not to use too much of my mana during this period?" He listed this detail in Linn as if he wanted to tell her not to be too hasty to the point of thinking about her only.
But before, contrary to these expectations, Linn disagreed with him. Even before he stepped towards the door to reach Balakh in the living room, he suddenly froze when he saw Linn undressing on the bed.
-!
"Linn, you don't need to go that far. Give me just two, not a year and a half, and I will reach the divine rank! After that, the effects of my power will be even more powerful for primordial beings!" Alvine tried to create a distance between him and Linn, whose cheeks were also pink while she undressed.
"I can't wait so long! If it's the only solution for me to heal, then so be it!"
"Don't you have time?! What nonsense is that? You have spent several centuries in this state, and you say that you will not be able to wait just one more year?!"
"It's because I had no other choice! In addition, we had an agreement that stipulated that you had to heal me to repay all the debts you had to me, right? And if that's not enough, I would give you a choice to choose everything you want from my possessions, except my armor set and my main weapon." She said with decisive eyes.
"... You don't seem to understand my worries; it's not that I don't want to, it's just that my cultivation rank is currently unstable. And I need to cultivate even more to acquire more divine auras. Considering all the risks that I expose myself to, no reward could make me change my mind. Do you agree if you were in my place?" He asked by swallowing his saliva in the face of Linn's incredibly irresistible figure, who seemed obsessed only with his healing to the point of forgetting the consequences that his actions may have on Alvine.
*My lord, we have completed the missions you assigned to us. But a strange barrier prevents us from joining you.* At this moment, Luna's voice resounded in Alvine's head by telepathy.
*Very well, wait a moment.* Alvine responds immediately. f𝘳𝚎𝑒𝚠𝑒𝚋𝘯o𝘃eƖ.co𝓂
He then looked straight into Linn's eyes, which had regained their original colors. " Can you cancel the barrier you set up? My subordinates have just completed the mission I assigned them; once they are there, I only need a month to be ready to face the heavenly tribulations to complete my ascent to the divine rank!"
Hearing Alvine's words, she frowned with suspicion.
"You still can't imagine strange things, can you? I had ordered them to collect as much energy as they could to help me restore my energy. The reason why I can't complete the aura transformation process is only because of my lack of mana. But with the orb with Luna, I could restore my energy in less than thirty minutes, and I would train with Balakh for a month before facing tribulations. If you think it's always long, you can spend two days on the planet of the Punishers to shorten this period." Alvine continued to convince her diligently.
'Rah! It's too frustrating to hold back your impulses. But I must not be reckless at the moment. The reason why the practice of dual cultivation is dangerous for me at the moment is simple. Dual cultivation is a simple but dangerous procedure for those with unstable bases. It is a process that forces me to collect my partner's mana to refine it with my mana. But this will not give me great advantages, which is why I intend to reverse the process to be the winner. But this procedure will also force me to sacrifice much of my mana. And this is the worst decision to make at the moment. At present, I am neither an emperor mage nor a divine magus. So if I lose a large amount of mana, it will only regress and move me away from my goal.'
"As far as I know, you have already collected a quantity of mana that even a low-level divine mage could not store, so why are you telling me that you have not yet fully recovered?" Linn asked suddenly after hearing Alvine's explanation.
"Sigh, you will soon understand the cause. For now, revoke this barrier. The more questions you ask, the more time you waste for both of us."
"Tsk."
Even if she was dissatisfied, Alvine sighed with relief when she saw her wearing her medieval blue dress. Following this, she snaps her fingers, and almost instantly, Luna, Greed, and the Scythe shadow soldier emerge in front of him.
"My lord, we have completed the mission you had assigned," Luna said, kneeling to Alvine while respectfully giving a black orb the size of a basketball to Alvine.
Unlike last time, the black orb had not only fivefold in size, but it also had five small golden spheres that swirled in it.
'Hm? So that's how this orb looks when it's filled with energy? Sigh, I now understand why I did not stop constantly absorbing the energy of the hundreds of Odins stones without feeling significant effects. How greedy was Greed when he used my universal law to collect raw energy? In short, the main thing is that they have successfully completed their missions.' He said to Himself while trying to get back the orb.
But at the same time, Linn grabs his hand before he can touch the orb.
"What is this artifact?! No, more importantly, why did you order your subordinates to annihilate five entire planets?!" She asked with sinister eyes.
"Hm? I have never given such orders. I had just ordered them to go and collect raw energy for...!!" Before finishing his sentence, Alvine realized a critical detail.
He then looked carefully at the five small golden spheres using his magical perception.
"Oh, fucking shit!" He swore in a low voice with a trembling tone realizing that the five tiny spheres were actually none other than the hearts of the five planets. And according to their golden lights, he could guess with certainty the rank of the cores!
"L-Luna, briefly explain to me what happened during your mission?!" He stammered these words by imagining the atrocity that his three subordinates seemed to have committed!
"My lord, we have carried out your orders as you have commanded us. But as this artifact continued to grow as it collected energy, I found that it was enough to restore your energy. If we had collected more energy, it would be dangerous for you with your current rank. Be sure to forgive my rudeness for underestimating you. We will continue collecting more energy until the orb reaches its original size."
Alvine felt like he was losing consciousness after hearing Luna's words. Instead of telling him how five cores of the divine-rank planets ended up inside the sphere, the latter worried that Alvine was dissatisfied with the amount of energy they collected. Just by hearing Luna's report, Alvine could say these three are worse than demons. But more importantly, how was he going to explain this misunderstanding? If Luna and the others have annihilated planets belonging to the Leaders, Linn will not care too much, but if a planet created by the goddess is among these five planets...
"So I wasn't wrong! Did you really order them to annihilate entire planets just to restore your magical energy?! How cruel can you be by slaughtering billions of people just for that?! "Linn then asked as her eyes switched between Alvine, Luna, and the black sphere.
"Luna, show me the scene in real-time!" He ordered by placing his palm on Luna's forehead to see her memories. More importantly, Alvine was not even convinced that these three people could annihilate a divine planet, so five was slightly exaggerated for him.
