King of succubus
Chapter 249 To Achieve A Goal, All Means Are Suitable To Use! 2"Ah, here you are. Do you want to eat something?" Linn immediately asked when she saw Alvine go out into the host bedroom. Since their return, she has no longer activated the barrier around the mansions; for the last six months, Alvine had gained Linn's confidence about his desire to stay with her.
This detail gave Alvine some advantages, such as sending his soldiers out on a mission or communicating regularly with Sabrina and others to be updated on the war situation.
Alvine immediately nodded with a mocking smile. "Voluntary, I'd like to taste your slave's delicious dishes." He replied, looking at Balakh, who growled with hatred towards him.
...Six months, the time that had passed since the return of Alvine and the others to the mansion. And during these mouths, Balakh realized that the person who deserved his hatred was not Linn but Alvine!
The cause?
-Spill!
Balakh, who has just served a steak in Alvine with all the accompaniments and all kinds of desserts (referring to the dishes more luxurious than any divine king eats daily)...
Alvine spilled all the dishes Balakh had just served him before tasting. It was not that Balakh's dishes were low quality, but it was Alvine the real problem.
"Why are you cooking something that a pig won't even be able to digest?!" He scolded Balakh as usual.
"It's not..."
-Slap!!
Before Balakh finished his words, Alvine slapped him with hateful eyes. "Have you forgotten what you must call me?" He replied.
'This fucking insect! I swear to kill him after paying all my debts to the Queen of Space.' Balakh growled to himself with hatred after taking yet another slap from Alvine.
That was the cause of Balakh's hatred toward Alvine. As a descendant of the ancient race who could scare away divine beasts with a simple look, it was intolerable for him to be humiliated daily by a simple human who was only a mage of emperor rank.
ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom 'Billions of humans who live on our planets consider us gods and treat us as such. But Alvine, a pathetic insect that hides behind the queen of space to humiliate me like this...?! I swear to give you all these humiliations in hundreds before killing you most cruelly!' Balakh continued to curse him in his thoughts.
"What is this gaze?!" Alvine frowned when he saw Balakh's eyes. Balakh's rage was so intense that he could not retain his murderous aura. But Alvine didn't care.
"I'm sorry, young master Alvine." He said between his tight teeth.
"Tsk, what a useless bastard. You're not even screwed to prepare food; you're a total failure as a slave." Alvine retorted and returned to his bedroom.
Linn, who was sitting, couldn't help but look at Alvine's back while shaking her head. 'This guy gives me more headache than usual. Why does he want to dig his own grave? Dragons are so hateful that he does not leave any unpaid debt even if they had to sacrifice everything to complete their revenge; seriously, is it worth it?' Linn wondered.
She then looked at Balakh cleaning Alvine's disorders with complacent eyes. Even she, who was ruthless, was not the type to become so vicious. Finally, she put down her wine glass and snapped her fingers, reducing to dust all the spilled dishes Balakh wanted to clean.
"M-mistress?"
"Sigh, go round in the meantime. Don't worry; I’ll make sure to prevent such events from occurring once again." She said as she joined Alvine in his bedroom.
'Tsk, you say that every time. If only my actions were not to have repercussions on my fellow men, I’d have killed this son of a bitch for a long time, even if I had to die afterward!' Balakh replied once again, once alone in the living room.
But as Linn's senses were sharp, he could not be reckless because he was alone in the living room. So all he could do was keep his grudge at the depths of his heart. He could not even speak loudly because of the punishments that Linn inflicted on him if he disrespected his little protect.
"Endure it, Balakh; your luck will come." He murmured to himself as he went out of the mansion.
At the same time, Linn had just entered Alvine's bedroom without knocking on the door.
"What do you want?" Alvine asked her without sparing her a look.
"You! Are you sure you're not trying to die instead?" Linn asked, staring at Alvine, who was wearing only a black boxer, with indifference.
"Sigh, it's the third time you've entered my room without knocking on the door. In case you haven't noticed yet, I'm trying to meditate now, and to do this, I need to have stable thoughts. So, what do you think you will accomplish by telling me about my death?" Alvine replied by sitting in the middle of his King-size bed with hundreds of Odins stones around him.
"...Sigh, understand just one thing, if you continue to push this madman to the limit, he will act instinctively without taking into account the consequences of his actions. And if that happens, you would risk dying in his hands."
Alvine remained momentarily silent while seriously thinking about Linn's remarks. But five seconds later, he shook his head.
"This is not the time yet. I need a real enemy with a real intention to kill me. But he, despite being proud, always manages to hold back; this is proof that he is not yet ready to offer me a fight of life and death. Kuku, I will have to give him more reason to hate me by humiliating him even more. To achieve the goal we are all looking for, the hatred of this proud warrior must go beyond his fear towards you; and to do so, we do not have thirty-six solutions except this way." Alvine replied with erratic eyes.
'Sigh, I now understand why this man got along well with Sabrina; he turned out to be crazier than I thought. At this rate, he has almost inherited all the sadistic and vicious characters of this madwoman! I didn't understand why I was suspicious of him, but everything is clear now; it's because he's just crazy!' With this conclusion, Linn's mistrust has increased drastically towards Alvine.
No matter the external appearance of the two people who get along wonderfully, the reality was quite different.
"Sigh, you don't make things easier for me; I have the impression that this lizard can attack you anytime. I'm sure my guards for a week now, and you ask me to continue playing this deadly game that can cost you your life?" She said while sitting next to Alvine.
"Heh, that's the goal we're looking for from the start. And then, you don't need to worry about what doesn't concern you; my life belongs to me, and it's up to me alone the responsibility to preserve it." Alvine retorted to prevent Linn from continuing her malicious actions. And the best solution was to make her angry.
'Unlike Balakh, which is easy to manipulate, this woman is the dangerous one. She hasn't stopped sticking to me for a while, as if she was trying to check something. I must speed things up and be more careful with her; she must not discover that I can cure her with other methods.' He said to himself, sneaking away from her.
But Linn, who had noticed his actions, had a mischievous smile as if she had just confirmed one of her suspicions.
"Whatever; now that we're done, can you get out to my bedroom?" Alvine ended the conversation by seeing her smile. But the most alarming thing for him was to see, for the first time, Linn's indifference to his sarcasm.
"Hm? Why are you frustrated with me? Am I that so unpleasant?" She whispered these words in his ear.
"...You seem to have forgotten something important, Miss Linn; your healing and everything you expect from me depends only on the fact that I rank up. And for this, I must cultivate to restore my energy." Alvine answers her with indifference.
'Tsk, if I avoid talking about it too much, she will only suspect me more, so I see myself obliged to remind her of the cause of my presence.' -Alvine thoughts.
"Sigh, I know, and I guess that's why you sent three of your immortal soldiers on a secret mission?"
"Yes, as the energy of this place is limited, coupled with the fact that I could not completely recover my energy even if I absorb all the divine spiritual stones that are in my possession... so I decided to send them on a mission to collect all the necessary energy I would need to increase my rank," Alvine explained.
"Hmm...you don't seem to lie to me about this fact, nor lie to me about your willingness to reach a high rank. But it's still very strange. All your actions do not have the slightest suspicion; it's too suspect for you to act like that!"
"What exactly are you thinking about? Besides, why would I lie to you about that as a start? Sigh; honestly, I can't understand what you mean. It's frustrating to see the kind of opinion you have about me." Alvine frowned while responding in an irritated tone.
Seeing that Alvine became impatient as he spoke with her, Linn remained silent. 'I was right, every time I try to unseal what he hides from me, he first tries to avoid the subject by taking me away from the main subject, but when he sees that I do not intend to give in, he has a fit of anger. But after seeing his behavior with Balakh, I am ready to bet that all this is nothing more than a comedy. In other words, even me, who was sure of my intelligence... was fooled by him!' She said to herself while looking straight into Alvine's eyes.
"Haha~, how ridiculous it is." She replied with a bitter smile.
"..." Alvine's frown was accentuated when he saw her laughing like that, but he decided to remain silent.
"To say that you even managed to fool me... is to believe that I become senile as time goes by. But I'm not going to find myself these kinds of excuses; even if I don't yet know what you're hiding from me, I'm starting to have a vague idea of what it can be." She said as she got out of bed.
"Hey, you're wrong, Miss Linn." Alvine finally spoke after listening to everything she had to say.
Linn, who wanted to go out, stopped immediately. "What do you mean by that?" She frowned as she looked at Alvine, who was still calm and undisturbed.
"Are you saying it's ridiculous because I managed to fool you? But you are wrong. Do you know why? Because what is ridiculous about this story is to see how psychotic you are to the point of thinking that I can manage to fool someone like you. In short, if you have so much time to waste on these kinds of futility, do it. Think what you want; I have nothing to fear; because I have nothing to hide." He said, shrugging his shoulders.
"...Hmm, it's indeed confusing. But I could say the same about you; you don't need to regulate your heartbeat with your blood powers because it will only increase my suspicions towards you." She said with a chuckle.
"..."
"Oh~, one last thing, have you ever seen a glutton refuse to eat a delicious dish even though he is about to starve? For my part, I think that if a glutton refuses to eat a heavenly dish in such conditions, it may be because he knows that the dish in question will not only bring him advantages."
-Alvine: "..."
She then continued by seeing Alvine silent. "It may be a coincidence, but this glutton reminds me of someone who is in the same situation as him. For my part, I find it very suspicious that an incubus refuses to feed himself like his peers despite being very hungry~." With these last words, she slammed the door behind her, leaving Alvine alone in the bedroom.
