King of succubus

Chapter 123 Extraction And Evolution Of Shadow

"You... how is this possible?" Eyes wide apart, Sylvia stared at the soldier who was entirely dressed in heavy jet black armor, and a large sword held in it left hand.

"Be careful not to approach it too much. I can't control this entity that tries to influence me with its hatred and thirst for intangible blood!" He threw in a muttered voice that did not seem to be the sound of his usual voice. Even if his eyes were completely black, his vision was absolutely clear like when he shared Sabrina's vision.

"Master, even if this guy is a simple soldier, you must not be able to invoke him without dark energy! Unless...!" She said, looking at Alvine's dark pupils. She felt like she was looking at the god of death in front of her.

"Yes. Even if I don't know by what miracle, but I still have the dark energy in me. Maybe it's due to the fact that my heart had fused with the heart of the monarch of death." He said, placing his hand under his chin while mortgaging this idea.

'But it's impossible! If it were so easy, I couldn't have faced so many problems. Something escapes us. I don't yet know what it is, but I would put my wings to cut that he does not use the same source of energy as the dark energy I had absorbed into the monarch's heart. Not to mention that this soldier looks stronger than the low-level soldiers that the monarch of death invoked for the assistant in cleaning!' She concludes by looking at the soldier from the shadows with doubtful feelings. At a glance, she had been able to collect as much information as Alvine could imagine.

'Without forgetting that I don't feel any loss of mana or my RE points. This power is really a mystery to me.' Concludes Alvine by looking straight into the purple pupils of the shadow.

"In this case, let me try to transfer to him the dark energy I had absorbed into the monarch's heart. If all goes well, the power of this soldier will reach a completely different level!" Sylvia finally revealed her goal by saying that she could help him more effectively master the powers of the monarch. She slowly walked towards the giant shadow that now had the same height as the Kelspiennes after devouring the soul of the third Elder.

"Urgh! Why are you so stubborn? Since I say that I can barely keep it under my control, it's too dangerous to approach you...!!

-Scrreeesh!!-

Even before Alvine finished his sentence, the soldier in dark armor rushed to Sylvia with a thirst for blood that further illuminated its purple pupils.

"Attention!!!" Alvine was alarmed when he saw the sudden actions of his invocation.

-WOOOO!!!-

The tip of the dark sword covered with the same threatening aura made her way to Sylvia's neck who had a Machiavellian smile adorning her lips.

"Hoo~? A simple soldier is trying to hurt me?! Me?!" She says in a sarcastic tone. Not bothering to warn herself, she let the blunt sword continue its run-up to her neck!

-Shiiiirkkk!!-

Under Alvine's wide-open eyes, the sword that had killed the Elder in less than milliseconds could not even cause a scratch on Sylvia! Her neck was intact despite the extraordinary strike force of the shadow soldier.

'As I thought, its power and speed far exceed the monarch's infantrymen. How is this possible?' She said in her thoughts by clinging to the soldier's head with her right hand and crushing him against the ground by splitting her head in black smoke in front of Alvine's incredulous eyes.

'Had she really get lost her powers?! If her sword can't cut her when she is weak and her powers have been half sealed by Sabrina... what kind of monster was she when she was at her peak?! Sigh, I'm really weak. Too weak to call me a cultivators.' Unfortunately for him, his environment and entourage were not normal people. Although he had a power that installed fear in his hôtes, he only compared himself to beings who transcended not only mortals but also divinities.

'Fufu~ not bad, its regeneration speed is comparable to that of an elite infantryman. No matter how much I attend to the young master's progress, he always manages to surprise me.' She says to herself in her thoughts by watching the soldier's head regenerate.

"Pathetic, this shadow infantryman is too weak. So try to do your best to do better next time." She said in a sarcastic tone that was the opposite of her thoughts.

|-100RE|

"What?!" Alvine suddenly exclaimed when he saw the huge loss of her RE points. Unfortunately for him, Sylvia who had just addressed her advice to him interpreted Alvine's surprise.

"Don't you believe me? Look at it how he was easily crushed by a simple push on my part?" She said, frowning.

"What?? No, I'm talking about the huge amount of energy that this thing has just absorbed! It's like the equivalent of 50M mana point!" He exclaimed in an incredulous tone. Let's summarize the situation. Even if I am a bottomless well that is filled with water, if a single regeneration of this thing sucks me so much mana, I will really run out of energy in a battle against a divine mage. It's too exaggerated!' He said to Himself by staring at Sylvia with a furious look.

Noticing her aggressive look, she sighed with guilty air. "It's okay, it's just a small quantity for someone like you. So stop resenting me for so little. She said, placing her hand on the torso of the shadow soldier after immobilizing it with her obstruction spell.

"Sigh, Sylvia, even if it's true that I have a slightly higher amount of mana than the others, the source of my energy is not infinite! So stop making me lose mana for your ridiculous desire to have fun crushing my summons. If I had enough IQ points, I could have made you taste the powers of the third Elder who had locked me in a mysterious dimension." He said, looking at the strange actions of Sylvia who no longer paid attention to his complaints.

"Please give me some time so that I can concentrate. You will soon know why I did all this." She says with pearls and sweats sparkling on her forehead.

Despite his curiosity about wanting to know what she intended to do with the invocation, he still remained silent when he saw the serious expression that adorned Sylvia's face.

...

...

...

"Sylvia, what do you really intend to do with him? We watched until dawn but you still haven't finished?" Asked Alvine, turning his eyes at Sylvia who always had her two palms placed on the chest of the dark entity invoked by Alvine, and looked out the window, the sunrise rising north instead of the east.

"..." as always, he had not received any response from Sylvia. The latter was entirely focused on the infantryman in dark armor who was fighting vigorously to free himself from her chains.

...

...

-Knock... Knock... Knock-

"That's why?" Alvine asked Synkie who had just knocked on the door after spending another hour in silence.

"Young guest, the king sent me to warn you that the meeting will begin in three hours. He asks you to prepare during this time." She says in a monotonous and respectful voice.

"Very well, We will be ready by then." He said at the same time he opened the door. "Oh~? I see that you brought me the books I want asked to study, thank you." Slightly surprised to see her dragging a library cart with about twenty thick books, Alvine did not let her enter the room because Sylvia was always on her blow without forgetting the shadow soldier who was an entity of unknown origin to Alvine.

"I-In this case, please excuse me." Seeing Alvine forbid her access to the room, she bowed respectfully in front of him before running in the opposite direction.

"Hm? What's wrong with her all of a sudden? Looks like she was afraid of me? Seeing her so frightened, I suppose the rumors about me have been revealed. It doesn't matter, it's not like I have something to lose." He said under his tongue when he saw Synkie's strange behavior that avoided crossing his gaze. Until now, he had not yet discovered the threatening aura that oppressed those who crossed his gaze.

Locking the door behind him, Alvine pushed the small cart near his bed bypassing Sylvia and the shadow that was in her way before sitting once again on the bed. He took a book that was at the top of everyone's but when he opened it, he faced another problem! 'I had forgotten that I couldn't read without Sylvia's help. Sigh, I wonder when she's going to finish her weird ritual.' He said in his thoughts, staring at her.

At the same time, a dark aura began to escape from Sylvia's body and was sucked in by the shadow at the same time.

"!!!" This sudden action alerted Alvine but on the other hand, he could feel through his bond that the power of the shadow soldier was slowly increasing as it absorbed this dark energy emanated from Sylvia. Is it this energy that she has been talking about all this time? That's not energy! How does she come to live with such an evil aura that is supposed to be the opposite of her vital energy?!' Asked Alvine by instinctively holding his breath out of caution.

"Finally!! I finally succeeded!!" Suddenly thundered Sylvia in an exhausted tone. It was only when she opened her eyes that Alvine was finally able to feel the feeling of discomfort he created in people who stared at them when he used the powers of the monarch of death.

"Sylvia, are you okay? You- your eyes are...!" He was filming and asked for more.

"Fufu~, listen to me instead of worrying about futile things. I managed to transfer 10% of the dark energy I had acquired in the past. Even if he would not be able to use it for the moment, after its evolution, he will become a significant pillar among his pairs! Haaah~ at the same time, I managed to get rid of some of this curse that was constantly gnawing at my vitality. It's a win-win, don't you think, Fufu~?" She said, wiping her sweat.

"If I were in your place, I would take a shower before going out for a walk outside with so much sweat." Said Alvine, looking at his shadow soldier who had now stopped moving. "Are you sure he's still alive?" Asked Alvine in a doubtful tone, pointing at his invocation.

"Don't worry about him. Maybe you will no longer be able to invoke him for a while but when he wakes up, his power will far exceed that of a low-ranking divine mage." She says by doing some superficial stretches with her numb body. "Oh~ speaking of taking a shower, are we going to attend the meeting of the leaders of this planet?" She questioned Alvine.

"Um, I had never met an ice elf before, so I would like to see them with my own eyes without forgetting that the mysterious race intrigues me a lot. Whether it's their appearances or their powers, everything intrigues me at them. So there is no chance that I will miss such an opportunity." With her eyes shining with impatience, Alvine instantly answered Sabrina's question.

"Hehe~ I'm impatient too. Now that I feel a little more comfortable with my body, I can easily use 1/10 of my [concept] without suffering too much damage." As she spoke these words, she hummed to the bathroom to take a shower. But suddenly stopped in front of the bathroom door. "What are you waiting for? Aren't you going to take a shower too?" She asked with a nonchalant air.

"Hm? Yes, but I would do it after you." He said by canceling his invocation spell. And returned the shadow to the mysterious dimension without a problem.

"Hohoo~? Could you be embarrassed to take a shower with me?" Mysteriously, asked Sylvia with a smile.

"Nothing to do with that. It's just that...

"Your motive doesn't matter to me, Lady Rina left you in my care so it's out of the question that I miss my duties just because of your ridiculous whim." She replied dryly before Alvine finished his sentence.
