King of succubus-Chapter 286 Foreigners.
Three days rather,
"What?! You say that strange creatures have come out of the ghost town, and they are heading here after killing the three teams of guards monitoring this area?!" Vandel asked in disbelief tone to the last survivor who had just reported this fact to him.
She was a high-ranking divine succubus with black hair and a bloody body because of her deadly wounds!
"Lord Vandel, these creatures are about ten and are more dangerous and stronger than anything you can imagine! On top of that, our magical attacks cannot cause them any injury! If... *cough! *...We don't stop them, or if they reach the kingdom...
"Very well, I understood. For now, stay calm; you must get treatment first." Vandel stopped her when he saw that the girl was worse off than he had imagined.
"Yasmine, bring her into the healing apt, and make sure she goes well before his highness's return." He then ordered Yasmine, who was the only one with them in his noble residence.
"At your orders, lord Vandel!" Yasmine responds instantly by supporting the girl to bring her with her.
"Lord... Vandel, they...have total immunity against...the--
But before she went out, the succubus, who barely remained conscious, tried to speak with her simple will; but in the end, she could not finish her sentence until she fainted.
"..." Vandel and Yasmine remained silent, not understanding the girl's words. 𝒇𝘳𝐞𝚎𝓌𝑒𝑏𝒏𝑜𝙫ℯl.c𝚘𝒎
"Sigh, drive her to the care experts. Meanwhile, I will go to this indescribable area to measure its threat level." He then ordered Yasmine.
"... Sir Vandel, isn't it a little too dangerous? These unknown enemies could still exterminate the guards, who were all intermediate and high-level divine mages. Even this girl, who is a high-level divine succubus and the last survivor, has returned to this state despite the fact that she abandoned the battle to bring us this new threat!" Yasmine hesitantly spoke when she saw Vandel take such a risk.
"I know, but this old man is not as fiery to throw himself into the wolf's mouth. Don't worry; I plan to ask Lady Sylvia to accompany me." He explained calmly, tying the belt of his sheath and wearing his perfect white chivalrous dress.
"Now, leave before she dies in your arms. And don't forget to treat her regularly along the way. I don't want more victims because of our imprudent decision to have underestimated this mysterious city." He continued while cleaning his white sword blade.
At the same time, Yasmine, who no longer insisted on it, went out with the girl in her arms, leaving Vandel alone in the living room.
Once alone, Vandel takes out a golden communication talisman in his white shirt sleeve and injects his mana into it.
[Old man? In what honor?] The second after, Sylvia's voice resounded in his mind.
"Lady Sylvia, I'm going to be brief; among the three royal guards who had led the three teams of adventurers to survey the indescribable area, only one came back half alive!"
[...Give me more details.]
"...According to this latter's report, from the moment the magical shield of this mysterious city was broken, unknown enemies emerged from nowhere and began to massacre our soldiers. I suspect the presence of foreigners who want to invade our planet. And also.................
After listening to Vandel's report and theories, Sylvia's calm voice resonates again.
[You are not wrong; I had already visited this place as soon as the guild master reported its threat level. But it's not what I thought. I suspect that there is a portal that allows other foreigners to be brought to this planet. And according to your explanation, they cannot be primordial. Otherwise, they will never let her join us alive.]
"..."
[Well, have you informed the master? Or is he still busy taking care of Linnaella?]
"Yes, his majesty still hasn't left the dual-cultivation room. Do you think that the situation is more urgent to the point of asking for his majesty's intervention?"
[Hmm, not necessarily. Linnaella's healing is a process that only he can do. He could have serious repercussions if he is disturbed in this process. But even if I would like to accompany you, it could be a trap to get me away from the master. That is why we should send one of the spies to give us more information about this new threat. And if it's really a trap, then it means that these strangers are not just enemies.]
Upon hearing Sylvia's speculations, Vandel unconsciously nods his head.
"You are right; given the mysteries surrounding this story, I would not be surprised if it is a trap set by your fellow men who have coveted this planet since the dawn of time."
Being one of the few people to know about the existence and information about hostility between the Punishers and the leaders, Vandel naturally guessed Sylvia's concerns.
[Well, as you are the most competent with your camouflage skills, I ordered you to check the situation as a whole. But don't take unnecessary risks, such as testing their strengths or trying to see their weaknesses. All you have to do is see what they look like and know their exact locations! Knowing the characters of the master and the importance he attaches to you, he will blame me to death if you take such risks.]
Hearing Sylvia's restless tone, Vandel smiled slightly while unconsciously caressing his white beard.
"Ho, ho, ho~, this old man understands. If my grandson does not present me with his heir, this old man will not die, even against celestial gods!"
[...Mhm, I'm now reassured. Meanwhile, I will send a little army behind you to protect you if the situation goes wrong. So you won't have to take too many risks.]
"Well, this old man trusts your judgment."
With this exchange of information, Vandel's golden parchment disintegrated into ashes.
"..." Vandel remained momentarily silent before his body turned into a red-blood mist as he disappeared into the room.
At the same time, Sylvia, who had just given this mission to Vandel, was in a large room of thirty square meters, with thousands of gold, silver, and copper ingots in front of her. And piles of gold and silver coins were behind her in the form of a small Coline.
"Sigh, it's the most painful work I've had to do throughout my life! Why should I take care of doing such things when there is Sabrina?! I'm supposed to be on the planet of Alzania to have bloody fun war, not to be a remodeling golem!" While retorting these words in a frustrated tone, dozens of gold bars flew towards her, dividing them into several pieces. At the same time, she used her magical energy to reshape them once again, as she had done with the thousands of other ingots!
"I will end these remains and join this old man. At least I could help him with this... Sigh, why does the master take so long to heal this arrogant whore? I can't let him alone in such a state. Even if Sabrina had speculated on it, I would never have thought that this bitch would succeed in convincing the master to heal her. But knowing this bastard and shameless master, he probably imposed unimaginable conditions on her to treat Linnaella. In short, after completing this task, I will see what it takes him three days to treat her." She continued to talk to herself in the room.
-knock, knock...
"Hm? I hope that's not what I think?!" She instantly whispers these words coldly, hearing someone knock on the door.
-knock, knock...
"Lady Sylvia, It's me, Rude; I'm coming to pick up the new pieces at the request of Sir Hamala to--
"Get in!" She interrupted the male voice that resounded behind the door with a sigh of relief.
But when the door opened, she frowned when she noticed that the man named Rude, a human with short black hair and a medium appearance, was accompanied by a vampire girl wearing a tight black off-shoulder dress.
"What are you doing here?!" She asked, pointing to the 'girl' with silky white hair and garnet eyes.
"... Lady Sylvia, It is for the delivery of the new order that must be remodeled. Rest assured, unlike previous deliveries, they are not many." She spoke these words with a forced smile.
"Not much? Do you think I'm so easy to fool? You have at least one high-level storage ring on all your fingers! And you dare to tell me that it's not much?! How many ingots have you brought this time? One hundred million?!"
"...To be exact, it's 109 million, of which fifty million are gold ingots and the others are silver and copper ingots." She rectified Sylvia's words in an embarrassed tone.
"H-hundred?! How is it different from the last time?!" She asked as if she was about to shed tears.
? "..." seeing her pitiful look, the two could only complain about her bad luck.
"... Ahem, last time, it was 110 million ingots. But this time, there are only 109 999 999!"
While retorting these words, she strolled to the empty corner of the room and emptied the continuous of her ten storage rings, each containing about 20 million ingots!
"..."
Then, after remaining silent while staring at the vampire girl who did not dare to cross her gaze,
"Tell me one thing, Lucie?"
"...Y-Yes?"
"Do you take me for an idiot?!" Sylvia then asked in a monotonous voice, unconsciously making Lucie tremble.
"No! I would never dare to judge Lady Sylvia with such thoughts!" She stammered when she noticed Sylvia's aura.
"So how is it different from removing one ingot out of 110 million?! On top of that, I've been in this room for more than a month reshaping these fucking insignificant metal bricks! Do you think I'm a golem that has only the sole purpose of doing this in life while you have fun exploring and doing what you want?! Arghhh! I will end up turning my brain into one of these metal bricks if it continues like that. All this because of this bastard who leads the good life while I get exploited like a magical Golem!"
"..."
