Reincarnated to Bonk in Another World
Chapter 59 - Hero?
Even Yale's expression turned cold as he squinted his eyes. "Your Majesty's words can't be taken lightly…"
For Lilith, it wasn't as simple as wanting him. There was one more use that Lilith saw in Albert.
'You don't know exactly what you're dealing with, Prince Yale.' Lilith thought as this was the thing she considered last night. 'The fact that you're not affected by my charm anymore is already enough for me to want him.
'If he defects to the human side, my kingdom will seriously suffer because his power can prevent those soldiers from getting charmed. If he just does it for a thousand soldiers, the battle will be as good as theirs…
'Meanwhile, if I have them, not only can I prevent that from happening, but he can also affect my entire army, allowing them to march even with my presence.
'This alone is a huge point, but there are more…' Lilith's expression turned serious as she said with a smile. "I am being sincere. As long as I can have him, I will fulfill everything you desire. Do you want to be the next king? I can make that happen.
"Do you want to change your fate and pay back all the people that throw you away? I can do it for you. As long as you give him to me, I can pay any price."
For Yale, things weren't as complex as the one in Lilith's head. He simply considered Albert as his traveling partner and there was no way he would give him to her.
There was no telling what would happen to him and his plan in leaving his home would be useless.
So, Yale stated, "No matter how high the price is, I, Yale, will never sell my own people. Even if I am not strong enough to fight against you, I will still stand in front of them. In other words…
"Over my dead body!"
Yale harrumphed as he started clenching his hands.
"Fine. Let's drop this matter." Lilith raised both hands, thinking, 'Well, you can refuse me now, but you surely can't refuse me later since I'm going to your father directly.'
Little did she know, Albert and Yale would have gone away at that time.
Seeing the latter had dropped the matter, Albert closed his eyes, feeling relieved that he didn't get trapped by this scary succubus.
'At least, I can see that Yale is very loyal. Becoming his travel companion is a good thing and it will be even better if he can become one of my Bonk Officers later. But we will see…' Albert thought, hoping for the best.
After all, if he could get Yale, he should be able to officially acquire the Leader job, which would bring him something special.
After that conversation, the room became silent as the tension was rising. Albert was closing his eyes, ignoring Lilith's gaze that never moved from him.
It seemed she was indeed serious with that last proposal, he thought.
Not long after, the representatives from the other two kingdoms also appeared. Their borders overlapped with each other, so that was the sole reason the queen got in touch with them.
The one that represented Gluttony was a snake. He had a humanoid body but was covered with green snake scales.
He looked at Lilith with a calm expression as if he didn't get affected. However, there was blood flowing out of the corner of his tail, so he must have injured his own tail before this meeting.
"Gluttony Kingdom's War Minister, Arkains, greets Her Majesty." The snake politely bowed his head.
"The famous snakeman, Arkains. It's my honor to meet such a famous person." Lilith smiled.
Albert took a look at Arkains' status and felt overwhelmed.
Name: Arkains
Race: Snakeman
Level: 345
Gender: Male
'He's stronger than the Lust Demon Lord? But still…' Albert looked at the blood on the tail and thought, 'If they were to fight, Lilith should be able to overpower him because he needed the constant pain to keep him awake. At the same time, his ability would be reduced because of the constant horniness…
'That's why you shouldn't be horny all the time, especially after meeting her.' Albert smiled inwardly, thinking he was glad that he wouldn't be charmed by her.
Because of Lilith, he didn't dare to bring his supporters inside the room, afraid they would be enchanted by her appearance.
That was why it was surprising when Yale actually brought two people with him. Yennex was in charmed condition, but Yale and Albert looked completely fine even though there was no wound in their bodies.
Before he could inspect further, another one appeared. This time, it was a female.
She was seven feet tall with muscular arms. Although the effect wasn't as powerful as Arkains, the female had also bled herself to stay focused.
Still, the most noticeable thing from her was the red-colored scales covering her arms, the two big red horns, a lizard tail swaying left and right, and her sharp, pointed eyes.
"Wrath Kingdom's Aegnis greets Her Majesty." She maintained her calm, but her deep voice made one shudder.
'Killing intent? No, this is different. Is she angry or something?' Albert frowned and checked the woman's status.
Name: Aegnis
Race: Dragonkin
Level: 335
Gender: Female
"Thank you for coming, the great warrior of Wrath Kingdom." Lilith smiled and nodded her head.
Still, her attention was grabbed by Yale, who nonchalantly sat in this room. As much as she wanted to show her anger because of how rude the Pride Kingdom was, she realized Yale managed to resist the charm completely.
She thought there might be a reason why the Pride Kingdom sent him instead of someone powerful.
"Alright. Let's talk about my invasion of the Human Kingdom. I have been informed that the Human Kingdom has summoned their heroes." Lilith narrowed her eyes.
"What?" Aegnis rose from her seat. "Is this true?"
"That's coming from my information network. Unless you don't believe my network, that is…" Lilith answered.
She couldn't say anything. Lilith's information network was the greatest strength because she had been sending her succubus to invade the human's red light district, allowing them to listen to many people's stories.
This was even more effective than the werewolf's ears.
"Anyway, my people have brought me this news, so I believe it's time for me to step forward. I don't want to be passive anymore, especially after you learn the history of the previous Succubus Queen, right?
"My mother never took the throne, so the previous Succubus Queen was none other than my grandmother.
"She died after having a huge fight with one of the hero's companions, the Great Sage. Although she managed to kill the Great Sage, the situation in this kingdom became chaotic.
"Hence, to avoid this from happening again, I would like to extend my hand and ask you to accompany me in attacking the Human Kingdom. We can't let those people grow up, lest they become our worries later."
Lilith explained the reason for this war, which shocked them the most.
Still, as one would expect from the werewolf whose reconnaissance ability was only second to the succubus, Yale immediately stood up and pulled out a scroll.
She walked to Lilith and presented her the scroll. "I have brought you the letter from His Majesty."
"Hoh?" Lilith furrowed her eyebrows and took the letter.
Meanwhile, Albert was in complete shock when he heard about the hero.
'Bonkey… Why does this feel like a fantasy story? Heroes?' Albert closed his eyes with a troubled heart.
[I am not aware of the state of the world, so I don't know what I can tell you.]
'Yeah. I just want someone to talk to because of all these ridiculous events that keep on happening around me.'
[Either way, you have decided to go with Yale, right? I doubt you're going to war.]
'Indeed. But I don't think I can go around the human town for the time being, considering the situation will become hostile soon.'
[Yes. Though, whether you want to go there or just wander around here is your choice.]
'I know, I know. You don't need to remind me that I'm in control. But thanks.'
After those words, Bonkey fell silent.
Since there was no response, Albert focused on the letter in Lilith's hand. It bothered him because Lilith was reading it while frowning.
"I have indeed gotten his message. I am thankful that the Pride Kingdom has agreed with this invasion, but sadly, I can't wait that long. Please tell His Majesty that I will still go with or without him."
"Understood." Yale politely bowed before returning to his seat.
Arkains and Aegnis also started talking with Lilith, mainly regarding the hero information. He didn't want to wage war easily, so they needed to make sure all the information was correct before having their king decide.
Lilith also understood their concerns and agreed that she would hold her army for another three months to wait for their response. At the very least, she could prepare her army even further.
They talked for a few hours, addressing all the concerns in their heart.
Albert was truly surprised because he never thought there were many things to be discussed.
'Politics indeed. I don't understand what they're saying most of the time, but I know they're talking about politics…' Albert sighed inwardly, knowing how troublesome it was to engage in this kind of conversation.
After a while, he got bored and started wondering many things, including the race that ruled the seven Demon Kingdoms.
'We have the Succubus Queen in the Lust Kingdom, and I think Yale's father is also the king. He must be a werewolf in that case. If I take a look at these two, they're a snake and a dragonkin… Maybe, the ruler of their kingdom is a snake and a dragonkin as well?
'Or it might be an even stronger creature… Just my speculation, but they're most likely a hydra and a real dragon.
'Then how about the other three kingdoms? There are Envy, Sloth, and Greed… Ugh, I can't imagine. Maybe the Sloth Kingdom will have a sloth? I don't know.'
Albert couldn't figure out their rulers, so he could only wait until he was free to speak. For now, he didn't want to stand out as much as possible and let Yale do the talking.
Even though he was only a kid, Yale seemed to be capable of political discussion like this, making him think Yale might be a genius.
Sadly, he couldn't do anything and just waited for another two hours before they finished.
Lilith asked them to enjoy their stay here and invited them to a small banquet, but Yale refused, planning to return to his kingdom as soon as possible.
Of course, it wasn't to deliver the message. He just wanted to complete his job and gain his freedom.
With a heavy heart, Lilith let them go, not without seducing Albert a little bit to stay, albeit all her approaches were useless.
Albert kept maintaining his poker face and left the building with Yale. Because the sun was about to set, they decided to return to their inn first before leaving the next morning.
As expected, Lilith saw them off personally, making it hard for them to leave. Albert and Yale simply hid inside the carriage while Yennex didn't dare to look at her anymore, lest he became too horny to even drive the carriage.
The return journey was quiet as they never saw another creature attacking them on the way. It took a few days, but it actually built up Yale's interest as he thought his independence day was near.
And finally, the journey had ended with Yale bringing Lilith's response.
Yennex drove them back to Yale's mansion, but Albert ended up standing next to it for a long time because Yennex needed to bring Yale back to the castle because the latter wanted to finish it as soon as possible.
For Lilith, it wasn't as simple as wanting him. There was one more use that Lilith saw in Albert.
'You don't know exactly what you're dealing with, Prince Yale.' Lilith thought as this was the thing she considered last night. 'The fact that you're not affected by my charm anymore is already enough for me to want him.
