King of succubus

"No, you don't need to go that far for that! Give me just a year, and I'll reach the divine rank! And then, I'm sure I would become a high-level divine mage in less than thirty years. After that, the effects of my power will be even more powerful for primordial beings like you!" Alvine tried miserably to make her give up the decision she had just made under her impatience.

"I can't wait so long! If it's the only solution for me to heal, then so be it!"

"No time? My ass! You have spent several centuries in this state, and you say you will not be able to wait just a few more years?!"

"It's because I had no other choice! And then, you promised me to satisfy one of my requests as long as it does not cause problems for you or your loved ones, so why are you still hesitating? Instead of reacting in this way, you must feel honored to be my partner, don't be more pathetic than you already are!" She replied while undressing.

'Fuck! Why have things become so drastic?! I can't afford to make a potential enemy more powerful than my allies! I knew it was a bad idea to make this promise!' He said to Himself while swallowing his saliva in front of Linn's incredibly irresistible silhouette, who was ready to do anything to achieve her goals!

If someone needs to understand Alvine's present impasse, it would be fairer to go back, more precisely, about a year when Linn had allowed him to take out the small cubic box he had received from Lilliana as a so-called marriage dowry.

-_-_-_-

"No, show me this box! I’m not worried about that; anyway, you're not strong enough to teleport to such a distance." She said, snapping her fingers.

At that moment, Alvine felt free from a curse that stifled his soul.

"But I warn you, if you try anything suspicious, you will no longer have this favor, no matter how urgent you face afterward." She added by staying on her guard.

Just as she broke the barrier with a snap of her fingers, she can put it back in place with a simple snapping from her fingers. So no matter how fast Alvine casts his spell, she is convinced he could not be faster than her. Not to mention that thanks to her spatial concept, she had greater magical perception than anyone among the primordials!

So, according to her mind, even if Alvine manages to teleport, she can reach him instantly, no matter where, as long as he is not on the Leaders’ planet!

On Alvine's side, even if he knew he could escape at that moment, he was obsessed with the treasures he had just seen in Linn's storage room. Not to mention preventing him from escaping, Alvine would not leave even if she chased him away!

As a result, Alvine ignored her warning and put his hand in his spatial bag. But it was only a cover to deceive Linn; in reality, he took nothing in his space bag. Instead, he stealthily slipped his hand into his inventory in his shadow inventory and took the black box while taking this opportunity to slide his annular inside the rusty ring.

But it was not the only thing Alvine had done; he stealthily gave an order to Greed and Luna, who immediately teleported from the dimension of the shadow to his shadow! Thanks to Luna's camouflage skills, Alvine was sure that Linn would not notice them in his shadow. While taking advantage of this opportunity that would probably no longer had offered to him before his departure, Alvine did not forget to move his weapons and all the necessary objects (which he will need) in his shadow.

Subsequently, he removed the box and the rusty ring on his right annular and stretched the box towards Linn.

Before catching the box, she snapped her finger, activating the obstruction of the space instantly. Then, she took the box in Alvine's hand. But she did not pay attention to the ring, even if her gaze lingered momentarily on the latter.

"Indeed, it is a sealing artifact created by Rayja. But you are right about a detail; even if it is an artifact created by Rayja, it is more than likely that it contains an elixir or a Linddra pill."

"Hm? What makes you so sure of that?"

"It's simple, Rayja mainly created these kinds of artifacts for Linddra, who kept her elixirs safe from all perceptions. It is a method that protects not only elixir and pills from corruption, but also from containing their purity."

"Hmm..."

"Anyway, If someone tries to open it by force, he will self-destruct with a spell capable of destroying a planet of rank three!" She said immediately after taking the box.

"Um, Sabrina and Sylvia told me the same thing." Alvine nodded nonchalantly.

"Yep, I didn't expect less from our mistress." She said, turning the box to check its condition.

"In short, will you be able to open it?" Alvine asked, going straight to the point.

"Hmm, unfortunately, no. Only Rayja and the person for whom the box is intended will be able to open it."

Hearing this statement, Alvine felt a little disappointed. But before he took over the box, Linn continued.

"But I have a method to open it. I have some drops of Rayja blood I obtained from Linddra."

Alvine's eyes widened quite at Linn's remarks. But he soon frowned when he guessed Linn's intentions. "I guess...Ahem, do you want something in exchange for this service?"

"Hihi~, you are insightful for a mortal. The blood of these two beings is somehow more coveted than their creations. Because in general, just like this box, there are their treasures and their old experimentation centers that no one can access without having their blood." She said, strolling aimlessly around Alvine.

"Sigh, please be brief. I know it's important, so tell me what you want in exchange." Alvine replied.

"Fufu~, for now, I don't expect anything from you. But you must promise to satisfy a request from me as a payment shortly." A slight sneering smile adorned her lips as she gave this condition.

On Alvine's side, even if he knew it would be better to drop this case, his curiosity to see the box's contents prevailed over everything else. "Very well, as long as your request is not impossible for me, or is not intended to harm one of my loved ones or me, then I would satisfy it without a problem." He acquiesces with her, despite his doubt about her.

"Hihi~, I strongly believe we will get along well soon. After finishing what we have to do here, I will provide you with a drop of Rayja's blood." She commented joyfully, even if she was the only one to enjoy this moment of joy.

But she didn't care; her goal, which was to break the silent barrier, had been achieved. And it was already significant progress for her to see Alvine so cooperative with her.

Alvine ignored her moods; anyway, he would not care, even if he noticed this fact. He beckoned to Linn to approach him and then lightly tapped her forehead with his index and middle finger and then continued to take care of his affairs.

Linn looked at him with confusion, but before she spoke, she was suddenly overwhelmed by the waves of memories Alvine had carefully selected.

She closed her eyes and witnessed the incredible scene that had taken place when Alvine tried to form a blood contract with Assiaphir.

After about a minute, she had finished visualizing all the memories that Alvine wanted to share with her. But instead of speaking, she remained silent for one more minute, remaining undecided.

Alvine was sure she would not choose this path since it'd signify becoming his subordinate.

"Do you now understand why I can't guarantee anything? It happened by accident, but that's not all; this method is accompanied by certain sacrifices that you will never be ready to commit. First, I would become your master for eternity, and second, you will probably become a succubus or a vampire; since my bloodline will merge with yours." He said, delighting in his shock.

Of course~, Alvine was happy to see her desperate! He was not so complacent to pity someone who had kidnapped him without his consent.

But he misinterpreted Linn's silence. And he understood it when she started talking.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

"My boy~, all that concerns you is an aberration that has no place in our universe." She said with a mysterious smile.

Alvine's smile faded on his lips. "What do you mean by that?" He asked, frowning.

"...First, you have two lineages, one of which is the lineage of Galiel, and the other is Sabrina's bloodline. Then, this energy-sharing skill that defies all universal laws... and then what else? Healing a primordial being despite you are even a simple emperor mage. Tsk, any of these skills will make even us jealous." She explains while playing with a lock of her hair.

'What's her problem? I feel like she is fooling me. Tsk, whether it's the Leaders or the Punishers, why is none of them normal? Is it because they have lived for millions of years? The most ironic, and that she doesn't even know yet that it wasn't me who had healed Sylvia, but Dalvine.' He said to himself, having a bad intuition.

"Finally, now that you have had what you wanted, now, give me what you owe me. First the cape, then Rayja's drop of blood." Alvine did not want to continue the subject with her. His intuition told him not to pursue this subject.

But unfortunately for him, Linn guessed his intentions. "First of all, I’d like you to use this energy-sharing skill on me!" She immediately announced, leaving Alvine perplexed.

"...You won't have anything to gain from it," Alvine replied after hesitating.

"Hehe~, you lie very badly, my dear. But it doesn't matter. I don't intend to abuse your competence. I just want to experiment with this skill, nothing more and nothing less. So you have nothing to fear."

"...Tsk, very good. But after that, you have to go get what I want."

As Linn had had what she wanted, she could afford to drag what he wanted; at least, that was what Alvine believed.

After seeing her nodding, Alvine put his hand on her chest and closed his eyes.

At the same time, Linn could feel a strange but harmless bond forming between her and Alvine. Even if this feeling she felt did not last more than a thousandth of a second, she could still feel this mysterious and harmless energy invade her soul and anchor herself deeply in her core through Alvine.

Following this, Alvine removed his hand from her plump chest and opened his eyes. "Now, try to collect magical energy as you usually do." He says after forming the link between them.

"Hm? As usual? But the energy I cultivate is different from yours...

"Can you please hurry up? If you have nothing else to do, it's not my case." Alvine interrupted her, guessing her following words.

Who was he to fear this fact? Throughout his journey with Sylvia to Garyth's plantation, even though she wasn't going all the way, Sylvia cultivated through him, thanks to the raw energy he had in stock. So theoretically, just like Sylvia, Linnaella would probably absorb the same quality of energy as Sylvia's.

Upon hearing his complaints, Linn sighed with bitterness but did not give more explanations. She first tried to absorb dilute mana, then divine mana. But she was surprised to see that Alvine already had divine energy, which meant that he could pierce into the divine realm after a little effort.

"How long do you plan to take? I told you to do as usual!" Alvine again scolded her, seeing that Linn was trying to test his limits.

But contrary to his thoughts, Linn was just cautious with him for fear of hurting him. It was not out of compassion for Alvine, but she was somewhat afraid to waste her chance to reach the legendary primordial rank.

But seeing Alvine so stubborn, her frustration made her momentarily forget her prudence. She then closed her eyes and greedily absorbed the raw energy as Alvine had ordered.

"!!" In barely a second, her eyes widened in shock after feeling the rich raw energy that was not weaker than what she used to absorb!

"H-how is this possible?!" As soon as she said these words, she focused on the sensation as if she didn't believe what had just happened three seconds ago!

But unfortunately for her, she realized that she was wrong. Since she later realized that her core, which was wounded and had difficulty absorbing the primordial energy since the Great War, had no trouble absorbing the energy that Alvine shared with her.

"I-it's even richer than the energy I've been used to absorbing since that time. How the hell is that possible?! Are you also a primordial being?!"
