Monster Heavenly King - Chapter 95
Only Noblemtl
95. Succubus (6)
It didn’t take long before Oh Jin couldn’t even scream.
A guy who rolled his eyes and passed out before I could even tell him to kill me.
Seol-ah scolded Hyeon-seong after seeing Oh Ha-jin collapse.
-You can’t even control your strength properly.
“No, it’s just because it’s been a while. Besides, I didn’t know you wouldn’t be able to endure this much. I’ve heard that young people these days have no tenacity.”
The people he personally tortured in the martial arts world were the ones who had pursued him or captured his comrades when he had the Cheonmasingyo as his enemy.
As they were part of the action force of the Cheonmasin Church, they were fanatics to the point of being blind, so extracting even a single piece of information was not an easy task.
Because he has memories of that time, Oh Ha-jin looks like he faints even if he is just touched.
“I have work to do, so let’s think of it as a good thing since it’s over quickly.”
After saying that, he approached the prison where the succubus was being held.
And, Hyunseong who cuts down the prison.
The prison that had seemed solid was torn apart like reeds and rolled around on the floor.
The succubus opened her mouth, sighing in relief at the fact that she was alive.
“It was just acting.”
“Huh? No, it wasn’t acting.”
“……yes?”
“I was able to save him because he was agitated and had an opening. I thought there was nothing I could do if I killed him.”
“… … ”
“Oh, of course it was true that he said he would take revenge.”
The succubus felt creepy and goosebumps.
Because he said that he just almost died.
However, even the succubus had no choice but to agree that what Hyunseong did was the best choice in that situation.
If you can’t do either one, time will pass and it will most likely end badly for both of you.
The succubus regained her freedom after the handcuffs that had bound her hands and feet were released.
There was no time to leisurely enjoy the freedom that had been regained.
“Then, let’s quickly go find another succubus.”
I’ve dealt with everyone here, but if the guys who escaped bring reinforcements, it’ll eat up some time.
Before that, I had to rescue the other succubi and return to the castle.
at that time,
“You were here.”
A familiar voice is heard.
When I turned my head, there was Banshee and Seoian.
“When did you come?”
“just now.”
“Han Ji-hyun and Han Ji-soo?”
“In the castle. Anyway. What the hell are you doing here? What’s the message?”
“Oh, that’s rightㅡ”
Before Hyunseong could answer her question, Seol-ah rang the sword.
-We discussed it and decided to move to a castle where succubi seemed dangerous.
“No, why are you saying it with the nuance that it was decided by majority vote? As I said on line, it’s not my fault. He pushed it through unilaterally.”
-What?! You’re not going to let yourself get away with it?!
“I never agreed to it from the beginning, whether it was a fatal accident or not.”
-betrayer!
Seoian frowned as if her head was starting to hurt while listening to the story.
It is difficult to hear a detailed explanation here right now.
“Let’s get moving.”
As Hyunseong had expected, awakened people were already flocking in from other places.
Even though he had delayed their reunion by casting additional magic on the thick fog, the Awakened would soon notice the abnormality.
They weren’t particularly threatening individually, but there were just too many of them.
“Do you know of any other places where succubi exist besides here?”
“wait for a sec.”
As Seoian swung his arms sideways, the empty air rippled like waves.
A ripple that covers the entire campsite.
It seemed as if he had just scanned the entire area and immediately located the succubus.
“There’s a hidden space underground nearby.”
“Wow, you dug a hole in the campsite? Those guys are tough.”
If I were alone, I would have spent a lot of time looking for it.
I followed Seoian’s instructions and headed towards the succubus, chattering my teeth.
“As expected, magic is convenient.”
“The grass is always greener on the other side.”
“No, I mean it’s actually big.”
The versatility was ridiculously different in areas other than combat.
That doesn’t mean I couldn’t do my best in battle.
The reason Hyunseong beat Seoian was simply because he had better skills, not because his martial arts skills were superior.
-But actually, that’s also something he finds abnormal.
“okay?”
-He can attack, defend, welcome, assist, and create barriers all by himself. He can do everything else too.
“Even if you say it like that, I still don’t understand.”
Although he had been learning about magic from Seol-ah from time to time, Hyeon-seong’s current level of magic was not that great.
Compared to Seol-ah and Seo-ian, they are literally at a level where they can’t even walk.
The magic I learned from Seoian was only practical and could be used immediately as an attribute.
“Because I have a strong image of magic in me that I can do everything by myself.”
– Well, that’s not wrong. To put it in a way that you can understand… It’s like getting a Ph.D. in almost any scientific field, like physics, electricity, chemistry, biology, etc. You have to be at that level to be able to do what he does. Normally, it would take him a lifetime to become successful in just one field.
“… … That’s it?”
No, that’s the kind of genius you’d expect to see in a story.
In terms of martial arts, it means that he learned different martial arts for each weapon and mastered them all to the extreme.
-He’s a hero who saved the world, but he has to be at least that good to be called a hero.
Hyunseong looked at Seoian as if he was dumbfounded.
“You’re really something.”
“It’s not convincing even if you hear it from someone who destroys all magic.”
Just listening to the story, I was curious as to how he actually won.
-Well, since that person didn’t have a normal body, the restrictions were quite severe.
What would have happened if we had been whole bodies?
Even if we fought with our lives on the line, it seemed difficult to predict the outcome.
“But if you think about it, weren’t you the demon lord I defeated?”
-I am not the Demon King, I am just a demon sword used by the Demon King!
“Oh my, he’s trying so hard to wash his identity. Anyway, he was at Ian’s level too?”
-No, he was pretty good, but not to that extent. At that time, I helped him because the seal wasn’t on.
Whatever the case, it seemed certain that Seoian was an out-of-the-ordinary being.
Inside a barracks where we arrived while having that conversation.
There was a hole leading inside between the piled up luggage.
And the succubi trapped there.
They all looked wary at first, but when they saw the succubus following them, they let their guard down.
“Then shall we go back?”
Hyunseong and his party head to the castle with the rescued succubi.
The succubus’ castle that we arrived at like that.
“Wow, you really saved me!”
Leah greeted them with a bright smile when she saw the succubus.
Celine looks at herself with an expression of disbelief.
“Thank you. I truly appreciate it. I will repay this favor even if it means staking my honor.”
After hearing Celine’s words, Seoian tilted his head as if something was strange.
And only then does she begin to look around.
And then, as if he had noticed something, he cautiously whispered to Hyunseong and asked.
“Is this the succubus castle…?”
“But? Why?”
“Something, it’s very different from what I expected…?”
Although he had traveled to many places in the fantasy world, he had never met a succubus.
Because from the beginning, he had made magical preparations to prevent the demons from approaching him.
The succubi wouldn’t have even dared approach her at that time.
‘So I was kind of looking forward to it…’
Although he had a female body, he still thought of himself as a man.
It would be a lie to say that I wasn’t excited about meeting a succubus, and a queen at that.
However, the more I looked around this place, the more I couldn’t see the succubi I had imagined.
If he didn’t have wings on his back, you’d think he had come to meet an elf.
“Were you expecting something sexy too?”
“No, it’s not like that is necessarily the case… It’s just a lot different from what I imagined.”
When asked directly, Seoian looks away and avoids answering.
But, just by looking at her reaction, I could tell that I had hit the nail on the head.
-Right? It’s just because it’s different from what you imagined, right? It’s not like you expected it or anything?
Seol-ah sighs in relief, her sword ringing as if it was a blessing.
The reaction was strange, so Seoian drew a question mark above his head.
Hyunseong, who had been quietly watching the scene, spoke while chattering his teeth in amusement.
“It’s because of him too.”
“…? What are you talking about?”
The reason the succubus wasn’t what she thought was because of Seol-ah.
It was difficult to understand what Hyunseong said.
-Oh, there’s no need to say that!
Seol-ah desperately tried to stop him, but there was no way to stop Hyun-seong’s jawbone from rattling.
“This guy taught the succubus the magic of absorbing spirits, and that’s how the succubus changed.”
“… … ?”
Seoian makes a face as if he doesn’t understand even after hearing the explanation.
Hyunseong told Celine everything he had heard.
After hearing the whole story, she looked at Seol-ah with a look of disbelief.
“It’s all your fault. You’re the enemy of men.”
Judging from her reaction, it seemed like she too was looking forward to meeting a succubus.
Now that it’s come to this, have you decided to shamelessly go out?
Seol-ah started talking nonsense that didn’t even make sense.
-Hey, these days, this kind of thing sells better! It’s called a differentiation strategy!
“Differentiation strategy?”
-It’s so obvious that succubi are sexy, right? That’s the weak point you’re targeting!
“So who are you going to appeal to with that differentiation strategy? If you’re going to appeal to humans, then it means that succubi are more likely to be captured because of you.”
-… …
Seol-ah is defeated by Seo-ian’s one word.
Could it be said that he is the warrior who sealed Seol-ah?
When I saw the guy who had never backed down from anything I said and spoke shamelessly become a dumb person, I thought to myself that there really is such a thing as compatibility.
“Anyway, for some reason or another, I would like to move this succubus to your castle. What do you think?”
“You’ve started a huge mess without the landlord’s permission.”
Seoian muttered like that and looked around.
Looking at the succubi’s gaze, he scratched his head as if he had no choice.
“Well, I was thinking that I would bring along some kids I can communicate with anyway.”
“really?”
“You can’t use that wide space all by yourself forever. Besides…”
It wasn’t a bad choice to create allies in case we ever fight humans.
Because individual strength has its limits.
“Of course, it would be best if that never happened.”
You never know what will happen in this world.
It couldn’t hurt to be prepared.
-As expected! I knew that would happen when I said that!
Seol-ah, who suddenly became very proud in a juggle.
The sight must have been disgusting, as the veins on Seo Yi-an’s forehead cracked and stood out.
“Should I seal this kid again?”
“Is it possible? Is it possible?”
“It will take some time, but it is not impossible.”
“I will actively cooperate.”
-sorry.
Seol-ah apologizes quickly.
The words “throw her into the furnace” were not all that threatening to Seol-ah.
Because I wasn’t confident that I would melt down just because I was put in a furnace.
However, the seal was a different story.
Moreover, Seoian had the power to truly seal himself, which made him even more terrifying.
“Anyway, I guess I should gather some succubi.”
“? why?”
“No, wouldn’t it be easier to gather together if we want to move all at once?”
“…?”
This time again, she makes a face that says she finds it difficult to understand.
Before Hyunseong could ask, her mouth opened,
“Why don’t you just move to Seongsan?”
He drew a question mark above his head as if to ask what the problem was.
