King of succubus

Chapter 458 The mediator.

Following Azalea's long-awaited question, Alvine smiles cynically.

-HUH!?!?!

But just before he expresses himself to answer Azalea’s question, his smile suddenly fades on his lips.

His expression turns from doubt to confusion, then into a narcissistic smile.

'Ho? As the saying goes, say my name and I appear as the wind.' He murmured with a wild expression while staring at the ceiling with blood-red eyes.

At first, the others were a little frustrated to see him stop when they were just beginning to understand the situation and the factors that motivated his decision, but after a few nanoseconds, they had expressions similar to Alvine's.

"Well, I think we'll have to put this conversation for later." Even if his words seemed nonchalant, his voice was darker than before.

In the following second,

-BAMM!!

Sabrina, still as resplendent as she is fierce and irreproachable, burst into the meeting room while smashing the door.

…still being accompanied by Sebasse, her vampire butler.

"Master, we have a problem; several thousand enemy ships have just been suddenly seen thousands of miles from us, orbiting the planet." She immediately made her report following her smashing entry.

lightsΝοvel.cοm 'Enemies, huh? Could she be unable to see through the illusion?' Frowning, Alvine questions himself while stealing a few glances at others.

'That's what I thought, the others are strangely in a situation similar to her. Kukukh, it's getting fun, this story.'

Barely concluded in his mind, he frowns at Askald who’s on fire (emotionally).

The latter, as if he is only waiting for that, gets up from his chair and sweeps the latter away from him with his aura.

"Khekhek--

"Shit up, Askald. (He) didn't come here to fight; and even if (he) did, you have more important things to do than going to the front." Alvine immediately rages without taking another look at Askald; to believe that he did not need to listen to him to guess his intentions.

"... E? But lord, do you wanna put me aside in front of such an army?" Askald asks with a doubtful air following Alvine's sermons about him.

"Yes, you must think about the appropriate sentence I must impose on you for having made such an error of judgment before my return." He nods without blinking.

Askald remains fixed as a Buddha statue, motionless but conscious. '... He’s always ruthless. He removes me just for having misled me by a fact that escaped me. But why in such a situation?' His brain seemed to gain in size as he tried to dissect Alvine's intentions.

But the latter ignores him and looks at Azalea with a confused air when he sees the latter's forehead ooze with sweat as if she were tetanized by fear.

'How strange, is it fear or oppression?' Unsure of Azalea's attitude, he steps away from his chair and walks towards Sabrina.

Seeing him move away from him with his chances of joining the party, Askald desperately handed over his hand to Alvine's back as if he wanted to catch him by the shoulder.

A futile action on his part, since the latter was seven meters from him.

But this did not prevent him from expressing the depths of his thoughts, or rather, his supplications, lest to be set aside. "My lord, even if they didn't come here to--

Alvine stops and looks at Askald with threatening eyes. "Stay here and do nothing, even if you dare to breathe in my absence, I will sequester you!"

"..."

'For an obvious reason, they cannot know that we have only one visitor; this swarm of warships is only an illusion. But if (he) manages to deceive all their senses, it means that (he)'s more powerful than them; more than I can imagine.' With this intuition in the heart, Alvine completely ignores Askald this step and focuses on Sabrina.

"Let this message go to Reha, Shiro, and Sylvia: tell them to come and meet me immediately."

"At your command, my master."

'Ugh, the class she has!'

"Very good. You can...

Before he finished, Sabrina vanished in front of him.

'... Sigh, Askald must take her as an example; Although... even for Askald, his ego may take a hard blow if he hears my thoughts.'

While shaking his head to get rid of his futile thoughts, he walks towards the exit, escorted by Sebass.

[Fy, are you with me?] While passing through, he contacts Fy by telepathy.

**ugh! Is it you, my lord?? I didn't do anything strange, bel-believe me.** Even if she was far from Alvine, this last one guessed what she was doing.

[No, I don't want to believe you, especially after hearing you justify yourself without me accusing you of anything. In short, active Gargantua and fortress N•6, welcome these unwanted guests as it should be.]

**What do you want me to activate!? My lord, is the situation so urgent?**

[No time for explanations, do what I tell you and be quick!]

**Ugh! I will pass the message on to others. But Heepha and her team are still working on Fortress, according to them, some adjustments must be made to make it easier to fly and less energy-intensive.]

Following Fy's explanations, Alvine remains thoughtful. 'Hmm, it's true that apart from the monarchs, it takes at least three generals to maneuver Fortress, as for Gargantua, apart from me, no one can maneuver it alone.' He takes a look at Sebass who was by his side and always inexpressive like a living puppet.

'Sigh, and I, who wanted to play it a little in front of this guy; Finally, I'm just going to settle for Phenix. If I'm not mistaken, it's Heepha's ship when she was the queen.' Following this conclusion, he takes another look; but this time, towards Azalea.

"Why are you still sitting? I said that Askald must stay away, but not you."

The latter gets up impassively and walks towards the exit where Alvine is waiting for her.

Alvine raises his eyebrows slightly when he sees her rushing towards him. 'Is it my impression or was she waiting for me to call on her?'

But before he is sure of this detail, Tifanie also gets up.

"Does this mean that I can also participate in--

"No, you stay with Askald; I don't want him to feel alone in my absence." Naturally, he made fun of Askald.

But despite everything, Tifania seemed to be distracted by the stress and self-abandonment when she heard Alvine's excuse, who probably wanted to isolate her too.

However, she did not find her say, perhaps out of guilt for having so much gaffer, or by open-mindedness in thinking that she had no role to play at the moment.

Anyway and whatever the cause, she sits in her chair without getting any further involved, watching the door close heavily following the departure of Alvine and Azalea... followed by Sebass.

"..."

Being alone in the room, the two were mute, for lack of common subjects to address, especially when we took into account the previous friction between the two.

"I'll be clear in case you misunderstand, I don't have the slightest grievance against you." Strangely and most unexpectedly, Askald was the person who opened the ball.

"...So you're not angry with me? I'm glad to know it."

"I didn't say anything like that. I'm just saying that you shouldn't take my frustration with you too seriously."

"..."

'You should know what you want in the end.' Tifania almost shouted these words aloud, but she eventually calmed down.

--

As Alvine had ordered, Sabrina brought the three people he had asked him for.

Even being confused about the reason for their convocations, the three did not ask a question and stood behind Alvine in the palace hall; waiting for the latter's instructions.

Being Sabrina's closest one among the three, Sylvia takes advantage of this proximity to ask her the question that everyone had in mind. "Psst, hey, Lady Rina, who is this little boy exactly? I didn't know you had an illegitimate child with the master."

Sabrina almost lost her balance following the question Sylvia sneakily asked.

"Stop talking nonsense, it isn't the time," Sabrina whispers this sentence to her while giving her a little lesson with a small pat on the head.

But this is enough to make Sylvia regret, who had the impression of having been hit by a hammer of several tons.

In addition, this moment of tranquility lasted only a wing beat.

Suddenly,

-GRRRRRRRUUUUU!!!

The barrier around the planet, until now invisible, which was set up by the genius and teamwork of Askald and his subordinates, suddenly became visible in the form of a shiny black dome following the mysterious pressure that fell on the entire planet.

Yet, although the main role of the barrier is to prevent any invasion of foreign energy on the planet, the others found it difficult to keep their legs inflexible in the face of the pressure strangely as frightening as what Alvine could show.

The latter was also momentarily disturbed to learn that he had underestimated the dangerousness of the situation in which they found themselves.

He did not need to use his perception or look behind him to guess the bleak state of Shiro and Sylvia who gnashing their teeth by wanting to remain inflexible in the face of the sudden fear that fell on them like flood rain.

'...'

He was not only silent from the outside, but even his mind seemed to be out of idea as he waited in silence and inaction.

The second after, Darka appeared just between him and Reha's small team.

He kneels behind Alvine with a knee and a hand on the ground.

"My lord, what are your orders?" The latter had put back his full armor as a servant knight.

"..."

Feeling Alvine's unexpected silence, he raises his head towards him and looks at his back with confusion.

But seeing the latter always obsessed with the sky, or rather with what was there, he decided to wait.

'Would I have misled myself? These ships look like illusions at first glance. But the more I observe them, the less I have this impression. Instead of illusions, they are rather ships materialized by the energy of a single person.' He mumbles himself, always uncertain of his hypotheses.

Finally, he addresses Darka without taking the risk of taking his eyes away from the sky.

[Darka, get into my shadow.]

This more unexpected order, made Darka momentarily confused beyond the possible.

Even being known to be calm in the face of any kind of situation, he found it difficult to understand what Alvine had behind his head.

However, he soon no longer cared about this order after hearing Alvine's next orders.

In the same second, Alvine took a deep breath and squeezed his fists as if he were trying to keep his cool by all means.

Then,

-W0000SHHH...

His shadow bursts fiercely under his feet, creating an exacerbating atmosphere, and spreads itself on the ground, transforming the latter into a kind of giant black carpet.

In a flash, the entire planet turned into a kind of black sphere that had only black ground.

[To all the shadow soldiers, join the kingdom of the shadows! It's an absolute order that I give you all!!]
