Succubus' Life in Another World

Chapter 90: Slave Girl

Anyway, lets sit down. ImsorryImsorryImsorry Hmm Now, how should I go from here

Although I brought the girl to our room to hear her story, shes been like this ever since. Old man Kent and Barry are busy with the mansion clean up, while Urania is guarding them as requested by me, so the girl and I are the only people here.

Naturally, the three of them didnt readily agree with us being left alone together. While I can understand old man Kent and Barry since the girl probably attacked them, I didnt expect even Urania to be against it.

Lily. Itll be fine, Urania. On one condition. Kiss me. W-why Ahh, geez, fine.

And while Uranias condition surprised me, if she says so, theres nothing else I can do. I lightly brush my lips against hers. And to my surprise, a large amount of life essence flowed in from her.

Mmn!? U-Urania!? Youre exhausted. Thats all I can give, but be careful.

It really startled me. Im happy that Uranias worried about me and gave me life essence out of concern, but what shocked me the most was the fact that Urania controlled her life essence on her own and could give it to me.

Life essence, as a concept, is the foundation of life, no, all of creation. I take peoples life essence when the other party allows it. Since extracting life essence is normally impossible and the process would feel severely uncomfortable for the other party, making the individual feel aroused or having them mistake you for their lover is necessary to suck it out.

Obviously, willingly giving away ones own life essence, ones own foundation, is unbelievable; and even I, who excels at handling life essence, absolutely dont think I can surrender my life essence to another person.

And then Urania did so with ease. Despite this practically chipping away her life, there are no signs of her getting physically ill, nor did it seem like she felt uncomfortable while doing so. Although I suck from Urania regularly, I can only admire her devotion.

So, after clearing that condition, the girl and I are now alone by ourselves. Ill just say this, but this isnt cheating at all!

Anyway, while I was already in the room, the girl was still frozen stiff and continued to apologize, so I cast Wind magic on her. A gentle breeze embraces the girl and forcefully guides her to the sofa.

Eh? Ah!?

Seemingly unable to comprehend whats happening to her own body, the girl let out a confused shriek. While Levitation and Move wouldve done a good enough job, this magic is the more gentle alternative for moving things.

First, no more Im sorry, okay? Eh, ah, my apologies. No apologies either. Please have mercy! Eei!! None of that either!

How much does she want to apologize? Thats plain cheating.

You can just uhhh leave the apology for later. For now, please answer. Why did you attack this mansion? Is the reason related to this?

As I asked her, I took out the black crystal. The eerie crystal is cold and inorganic, but despite that, it seems to have a strange pulse.

Hii!? N-no! Please, not that! Ill do anything you ask! Please, anything but that! Please! Please! Have mercy! Please have mercy!! Wa!? Sto-! I wont! Im not putting it back in your head, okay! Look! Its gone! I put it away now! Calm down!

The instant she saw the crystal, the girl turned pale and began begging for mercy, and as it shocked me, I quickly stored it away in panic. I never imagined her to react this strongly, but I guess this is just natural. This girl was embedded with the crystal and stolen of her free will. Besides, I can feel great malice from the crystal as well. Being in direct contact with that malice, it shouldve been obvious that she would be so flustered. I didnt have enough consideration.

You, were you conscious at that time? Yes. It was like I was deep in dark waters Like I was looking from a distance But; I remember what was happening and, um You need not apologize. It was all caused by that crystal. You Ahh, I havent introduced myself yet, huh? Im Lily, just a normal sorceress. What can I call you? I dont have a name People called me by this or that

Even if this girl was a slave, its bizarre that she doesnt even have a name. Crime slaves, debt slaves, whichever a person might be, having their own lives until that point, every one of them should have their own name. And if she doesnt have one, that means to say that she must have been born a slave.

While its not as if slaves never give birth, since the child is unrelated to the parents crime, they arent turned into slaves. Cases are that the slaves master or their blood relatives would adopt the child, but in most cases, theyre sent to an orphanage. Either way, turning someone into a slave, carving a contract sigil onto someone who wasnt even given a name is unforgivable.

I couldnt help but be enraged by the irrational treatment done against this girl. If possible, Id really love to find the mastermind right now and immediately beat him to a pulp, but unfortunately, I cant.

Our only clues are the girl before me and the black crystal. From here on, Ill have to tread carefully for more clues.
