1270 Why are you here brat?
"What are you doing here?"
Eisheth questioned with a deadpan look on her face as she glanced at the man in front of her. From her expression, it was clear that she didn't appreciate this man's presence.
The man, however, completely ignored the signs she was giving and with a smile on his face, she spoke up, "It has been a while darling, hasn't it?"
"Darling...?"
Eisheth tilted her head eyes and narrowed her eyes. Obviously, she didn't like that word, especially when it was coming from this man's mouth.
"What is it?" The man feigned ignorance.
An act Eisheth didn't like,
"Azazel, drop your act."
Eisheth spoke with a cold look on her face.
It was an expression people had rarely seen on her face.
Seeing the Incubus Lord's Face, Eisheth knew that the man wanted to continue with his light tone, therefore, "I lost more than 100,000 people, Azazel. I do not know about others, but at the very least, I was expecting your support."
Azazel's expression changed.
He knew that his time, he couldn't avoid a direct confrontation. Not that he was surprised, Eisheth wasn't the type to let this matter go and he knew about this the best. Honestly, if it wasn't absolutely required, then knowing Esiheth's nature, he wouldn't have come to this place.
Right now, however, things were different.
"Eisheth, it wasn't something I had control over. The Five Lords had already passed down their Orders."
Azazel spoke up.
"It doesn't matter."
Eisheth's answer was instantaneous.
"My State was attacked and I was surrounded by 5 Divine Stage Dragons, my entire Clan could have been wiped out."
"Eisheth, you know that was not going to happen. You wouldn't have lasted against those five if they actually intended to destroy your State. All of that was a plan to bring that man ou-"
"Azazel."
Eisheth interrupted.
"As I said, it doesn't matter.
Whether it was a plan or not, whether my State would have been completely annihilated or not, my land was attacked and you weren't there to help me.
So do not call me things like 'darling', you should already know, but I am not very patient. This could very well lead to War between two Lust States."
Eisheth threatened and Azazel's widened his eyes in surprise.
A Threat of War.
He never thought that Eisheth would take things so far.
"Eisheth, calm dow-"
"Tell me what you are here for.
Make it quick."
Hearing Eisheth's tone, Azazel instantly realized that he needed to change his strategy to get what he wanted, "Where is Aisha? I wish to meet her."
He questioned, however,
"What made you think I would answer that question?"
"Eisheth, you cannot stop me from meeting my daught-"
"Azazel, don't even try."
Eisheth was quick to shake her hand.
"I am patient and reasonable.
That man is not."
"What...?"
Azazel tilted his head in confusion.
"Nux won, your agreement with the Dragon Lord has pretty much put the demons against Nux, a man with the level of support so strong that he can currently be considered the most influential person in the world.
And now you are trying to use your daughter to put yourself in an overall better position, isn't that right?"
Eisheth questioned.
How could she not know what this man was thinking?
After all, she had known him for thousands of years.
Eisheth didn't just know what Azazel was planning, she also knew what was wrong with his plan.
"Your relationship with Aisha isn't exactly good, Azazel."
Eisheth spoke up.
"I have never done something that would disappoint h-"
"You didn't appear when her people needed you the most, you think she would be excited to see the father who abandoned her mother and sisters?"
Eisheth chuckled.
"Eishe-" Azazel tried to explain himself, but again,
"Aisha is not the same as me," Eisheth spoke up.
"That girl is spoiled rotten by that man. Unlike her mother, she doesn't have to worry about different political reasons to say or act a certain way. She will freely speak what she feels without holding back.
That girl does not like you, Azazel and she would leave no chance to make sure that you know about it.
I can tell you what will happen if you continue with your plan.
You will talk to her, you will annoy and later anger her, your plan to get Nux on your side will be thwarted away, not just that, with Aisha against you, let alone Nux supporting you, it wouldn't even be surprising if that man treats you as his enemy.
Azazel, if that happened, you wouldn't even know what happened and your head would be rolling on the ground."
Eisheth spoke as she looked right into Azazel's eyes.
Azazel turned silent.
Seeing her talk about his death so easily frustrated him, however, there was nothing he could do about it. That man indeed had the power to deal with him. Let alone the 30 Elves who stood beside him the entire time, just the Elven Queen alone would be enough to neutralize him.
And all of this was completely ignoring monsters like Vyriana who stood behind Nux.
That man was currently untouchable.
Offending him was foolish. The same was true for his wives, or maybe, considering that man's personality, offending him is better than offending his wives.
"Leave."
Eisheth spoke up, completely ignoring how Azazel was desperately trying to find the solution to the current situation.
It wasn't her mess to deal with.
Eisheth just didn't wish to see this man's face.
"Also, pass my message to the Five Lords behind you,
There is no need to try and mend their relationships with my Lust State, with their true face already revealed, I will not consider other Demon States my 'allies'.
Starting now, my Lust State would have a purely business-related relationship with the other Demon States."
Eisheth spoke with a strict look on her face.
It wasn't just her either, almost every other Succubi living in the Lust State had the same opinion, other than Nux and his people, they didn't trust anyone.
Yes, the Lust State had now turned into Nux's 'zone'. A place where every single person treated him like a God, a Savior, a Hero. He was the people's favorite, it was to the point where his one word was enough to influence the entire State.
It was a power that could be considered a threat for Eisheth, of course, the Succubus Queen trusted her son-in-law.
How could she not? When 'her' people abandoned her, he was the only one who appeared to help her even though he knew all of it was a trap to lure him out. It was difficult not to trust him after that situation.
Eisheth and even Rislith, the two women now had complete faith in Nux.
"..."
Azazel turned silent.
Eisheth didn't leave much for him to say.
In the end, with his head low, he could only turn around.
It was the consequence of a bad choice. Consequences that all the Demon States would face in the future.
"Hmm? Why pass the message when you already said those words to their faces?"
Suddenly, another voice was heard.
A voice Eisheth knew all too well.
A smile appeared on the Succubus Queen's face,
"Why are you here brat?"
She questioned as she turned around and glanced at Nux who was walking towards her with a playful smile on his face.
"What else? You have my wife with you, give her back, I miss her."
Nux snorted as he glanced at his mother-in-law.
"What? You are not taking her away any time soon. I wish to spend more time with my daughter. Go away, don't annoy me."
Eisheth snorted back.
Nux turned silent.
Soon, however, he smiled again and extended his hands,
A purple jolt of light attacked him, rushing into her arms.
"It has been a while, love."
Nux spoke, his voice filled with endless love.
"I missed you."
Aisha spoke, her face still buried into Nux's chest.
"Then are you ready to leave?" Nux questioned, looking at Eisheth with a provocative smile.
"Of course!"
Aisha didn't disappoint either.
"...you little punk."
Eisheth cursed.
It wasn't sure who she was cursing though, maybe it was her son-in-law for trying to provoke her, or her daughter for betraying her in an instant.
Aisha glanced at her mother as she laughed out loud before burying her face back into her safe space again.
"Anyways, you should deal with the mess here," Nux spoke up, his face turning serious as he looked at a particular direction, "It is pointless to hide, don't bother coming out either, you can leave."
Eisheth narrowed her eyes as well. She trusted Nux enough to believe whatever he said.
Suddenly, Kaal Nightshade, the Lord of the Shadow Demon State, appeared out of thin air. Looking at him, a strange smile appeared on Nux's face, "You know I owe you one for what you did for my wife,
Now you are putting me in a difficult position, Lord Kaal."
