Chapter 119 - Fetch That Succubus
Chapter 119 - Fetch That Succubus
Theodore just had a meeting with two of his followers – the Chimera and the Dire Wolf. They reported Theodore about everything that they saw and heard while they were in the Palace.
"So, that witch was going for the King this time…" Theodore massaged his chin while thinking about the possible reasons for Lillian to attack the King and the benefits that she would get if the King was to die.
He also thought about how it would affect Adeline if the King was to die. Adeline would not only lose her only remaining parent, but she would also lose her power as a Princess, and either she would have to flee from the Kingdom or she would have to serve under that same witch that she despised.
Theodore abruptly got up from his seat. And he murmured to himself while pacing back and forth in the meeting room, "This is bad. I cannot overlook that witch's action any longer. The more I stay quiet, the more danger the King falls into. He is already old, and if a succubus is sucking out his life force then leaving him be for even one night might lead him to his death."
Theodore turned to look at his followers and asked, "Can you recognize that succubus if you see her again?"
.And the Chimera replied confidently, "Yes, master. I saw her face closely so I can recognize her again if I see her."
"Good," Theodore nodded his head and ordered, "Let's go to Hell then. We are finding that seductress and ripping her seductive qualities off of her."
The Chimera stood up from his seat and then went and stood beside Theodore. Theodore touched that Chimera's shoulder and then both of them teleported to Hell.
Theodore teleported both of them to the Gambling House of Hell because that location was always at the back of his mind as that was where he would come to almost every day. That was the only place in Hell where he could get a fill of his daily diet of aura of revenge emitted by different kinds of beings.
Theodore was thinking of going straight to find that succubus but when he stepped his foot inside of the Gambling House, he just could not avoid all the sweet aroma that was lingering around, waiting for him to take them all in and make them a part of his power.
Theodore took a deep breath in and then moaned because of the pleasant smell. "Let me quickly gather them all…" he uttered under his breath and raised both of his arms with such a smooth movement that it almost looked as though he was inviting the love of his life for a dance.
He spread his palm and began to absorb all those sweet sweet aurae that were hovering all over the Gambling House. His eyes glowed blood red and for a brief second, a shadow in the shape of horns appeared on Theodore's head.
Theodore absorbed those aurae in a matter of a few seconds and immediately after, his body felt rejuvenated. The more he would absorb the aura of revenge, the more strong and powerful the Devil Prince would become.
Just a moment ago, the Gambling House was in chaos. Mystical beings and spirits and souls of dead humans were fighting with each other, shouting and yelling, smashing things here and there, and whatnot. However, as soon as Theodore absorbed those looming auras, the whole place fell quiet and everyone was calming down.
If Theodore didn't have an urgent matter to attend to, he would have riled everyone up even more and provoked them to go against each other. And when the chaos would reach its peak, then only he would have absorbed that aura full of hatred and revenge. But today, he satisfied himself with what was already there naturally.
Theodore and his Chimera got out of the gambling house. The Devil Prince prepared to head towards another area which was the home to all succubi, the land of the Enchantress of Hell.
Before this, Theodore had never been to that land because he hated being touched, and it was impossible not to get touched here and there when one would walk through that land of the Enchantress. The countless succubi would try to get their hands on every man that came to their land.
Theodore touched his follower's shoulder again and teleported both of them to an area that was close to the land of the Enchantress. After arriving there, Theodore had thought that he would go inside the succubus settlement and would ask the Chimera to identify that succubus that he had seen in the Palace.
But imagining their hands and tails running all over his body made him feel goosebumps all over his body. Even the imagination was very repulsive for him. So he looked at the Chimera through the corner of his eyes and smirked. He was thankful that he had brought a scapegoat along with him.
Theodore snapped his fingers and an armchair appeared in front of him. He sat on the chair and got comfortable. Then he ordered to that Chimera, "Go inside and bring that succubus along with you. I will be waiting here."
"M-Master…" The Chimera looked at Theodore with eyes that said 'how could you do this to me?' But he didn't dare say anything more. He slightly bowed his head to his master and said, "I will be back as soon as I find her." And then he exhaled sharply before leaving for the succubi's settlement.
Just like Theodore, the Chimera also didn't like being touched by the filthy hands of those succubi. So he used the name and reputation of his master in front of the Queen of the succubus and made her present the succubus who had traveled to Earth recently.
"Master, this is the same succubus who I saw yesterday." The Chimera presented that succubus to his master.
The succubus was told by her Queen that she was called by a Devil Prince of Hell. But when she saw the man sitting leisurely on a chair, with far less aura surrounding him than what she had expected from a Prince, she chuckled and taunted Theodore, "What is that? Can that even be called an aura? I have a stronger aura than you, so how dare you trick our Queen into sending me here?"
Theodore got up from his comfortable chair and then snapped his fingers again to make it vanish into thin air. Then he glared at the succubus and without even saying a word, he released his enormous demonic aura to display his full power.
The creatures of hell could easily see each other's aura that would surround them. And when that succubus saw Theodore's aura that was large enough to swallow their whole settlement, she dropped down on her knees and began to beg for the Devil Prince's mercy. "Please forgive me, Your Highness. I am sorry to have offended you. Please don't kill me."
Of course, she didn't know that he had toned down his massive aura and had hidden it from everyone's eyes. And of course, she was right to fear for her life because Theodore could do that in a split-second if he wanted to.
