After my Character Setting Collapsed, I Became an Incubus

Chapter 67: How do you know?

Views:

"In the original work, Vader got two things from the cannon fodder Cain - one was the blood of the demons, and the other was the map to the sacred relic of the dragons. Cain tricked Vader into performing a mission involving a rift dragon. Vader obtained the blood of the demons from the rift dragon and killed Cain. After that, he found a corpse in Cain's 'legacy' - a crazy succubus boy. The succubus was Eden. Eden thanked him for killing Cain, and died of exhaustion after giving him the map of the sacred relic of the dragons. Later, the mayor of the city of lust heard about the fate of Vader, her brother, whom she had no feelings for and was even ordered to be hunted down by her, and became very interested in him... Oh, Lucian."

The system said: "After obtaining the map, Wade actually buried the bodies of the two together - referring to the crazy Eden and the corpse he held until his death."

"… He can also dig holes? How strange."

"Ah, No. 5, haven't you seen this part?"

"I always read ten lines at a glance, and never pay attention to details like these."

Lucian glanced at the party hall, which was still bustling with activity. Everyone in the party hall was drunk, and some of them were aware of Wade's departure.

"Let's go out again and find out where these two people are." He suddenly said.

The system did not raise any objections to Lucian's request. In his opinion, it was obviously beneficial for Lucian to look for the two people - for example, he could get the map leading to Edith's lair from them. But he did not notice the subtle expression Lucian showed when he heard that Wade buried the two people together after obtaining the map.

Eden was imprisoned in the dungeon of the annex. Lucian carefully observed through the ventilation window. Before he could see the faces of the two people, he heard a weak and painful roar and the laughter of the guards. The roar sounded familiar to Lucian. He said to the system: "Compare the voiceprint of this voice, it feels familiar to me. I must have seen them at some time and left a deep impression..."

As he said this, he changed his angle and continued to observe along the ventilation window. He saw a tall young man lying on the ground. The young man had been tortured, and the blood on his body had covered any features that could be identified. It was him who had just roared. Opposite him, kneeling, was a young man in shackles.

The system also responded at this time: "It's normal for you to be impressed, No. 5."

Lucian:

System: "They are the couple who live next door to you."

Lucian: …

At that moment, the memory of being induced to have sex that night came back to his mind again. Lucian twitched his lips. He had never thought that he had met the characters in such a strange way before. The boy had fewer wounds. At this moment, his face was flushed abnormally. He struggled to crawl on the ground, grabbing the trouser leg of the interrogator named Patton.

In the basement, besides Barton, there were several other members of Black Ice.

“‌Please…” He said as if he was unconscious, “‌Please…”

“Assholes!! I’m going to kill you…” The young man’s eyes were red with anger, but he was so weak that he couldn’t even utter a threatening sound.

Eden's condition was obviously very strange. Lucian smelled a strange scent at the tip of his nose - very light, but with a strange sweet and fishy smell. This scent made him feel a little more restless. He tried to identify the source of the fragrance and found that it came from Eden.

This is the smell of love potion.

What exactly does Patton want to do

Lucian wanted to look again, but a slender hand had already climbed up his neck. The cold fingers made the skin on the back of his neck shrink. Before Lucian could resist subconsciously, he realized the other party's identity and used his tail to wrap around the other party's wrist.

"Long time no see, Master Wade," he said softly.

"What are you doing here?" He heard Wade's cold breath behind his ear.

"If I tell you it was a coincidence, will you believe me?" Lucian blinked, "It turns out I came out to find you..."

"Why are you looking for me?"

"Because I left you to chat with Kane, I guess you would be unhappy."

"You think too much. You don't take it that seriously." Wade sneered.

Lucian said obediently: "Anyway, I got lost while looking for you, and then I ended up here... Are they the two foreigners who offended Kane? They look so pitiful. Master Wade, did you come here because you felt sorry for them?"

During their conversation, the drama in the basement continued. Barton leaned over and whispered something in Eden's ear. Eden paused for a long time, James made a painful sound, and Barton looked at Eden, as if waiting for his answer.

"They have something we need," Wade replied. "I was just thinking about when it would be a better choice to attack them. It's just a coincidence that they fell into Kane's hands."

"Oh, so you plan to take action? When you do, remember to tell me first..."

Wade looked back at him. At that moment, Lucian's heart suddenly jumped, and then he heard Wade's voice: "Now is not the time to take action."

"opportunity?"

"Eden used magic to hide the map in his body. When he dies, the map will be burned with him. Of course, we can use the spell of extracting the soul to force him to hand over the map, but this is not the best way - after all, he is the younger brother of the mayor of the City of □□. His sister will send people to hunt him down, and she will not allow her own blood relative to be subjected to the forbidden spell of extracting the soul. This is a provocation to her dignity." Wade said.

"So you plan to make them hand over the map willingly?" Lucian asked.

"That's wrong." Wade lowered his eyes and looked at everything that happened in the basement. There was no unnecessary expression on his indifferent face. "But now they are not desperate enough. Redemption in absolute despair will lead to loyalty, right?"

Lucian heaved a sigh of relief. Somehow, the fact that Wade was going to take action gave him a strange sense of relief. He looked at the scene in the basement and said casually, "But... how did you know that the map was in their hands?"

"I have a way." Weed said, "Since I noticed them, I have been using magic to monitor them."

"Oh..." Lucian glanced at Wade with ill intent, "Just surveillance? Did you hear anything strange..."

Vader just raised his eyebrows and said nothing.

In the basement, Barton told the two that he wanted Eden, who was drugged, to come over and make love with him in front of James. Only in this way would he temporarily release James. Eden, who was almost collapsed, agreed to his request, and James almost twisted his joints to break free from the chains. It was at this time that Wade appeared.

Lucian breathed a sigh of relief, and just then he heard Vader's voice.

"I never told you what the 'map' is, or who Eden James is, but you weren't surprised during the conversation just now - as if you already knew it all."

"Why? Lucian."

Those words were like a bucket of cold water, pouring into Lucian's bones. He looked at Wade, who instantly swooped into the basement like a dark crow, and cold sweat broke out on his back.

Even my fingers began to tremble.

Wade's plan was successful. This desperate rescue indeed won Eden James' loyalty - and even more of what he wanted. After defeating the guards, he used magic to restore Eden's consciousness. The first thing the succubus did after regaining consciousness was to crawl to his bruised lover and hug his head with all his strength.

James was dying. The long torture had consumed all his vitality, and he was about to irreversibly walk towards death. The succubus boy's eyes were full of despair, and at this moment Wade said, "There is a way to keep him alive."

"What?"

"Use your blood to sign the contract. You are a winged demon from the rift. You should know that the winged demons are the most advanced demons." Wade said, "One way is to give him a drop of blood and write a spell contract on his ribs to let him live again. The price is that he will become your servant. Your thoughts will also be able to control his life and death."

Eden pursed his lips. He was surprised at Wade's identity and had seen such magic in ancient books. But the price he paid for James's survival was too high.

"You can choose for yourself." Wade said.

"No... there is no way..."

Eden wanted to say that he had no way to make a choice for James - he was afraid of James' death, and even more afraid that James would hate him for making the choice after he came back to life. Until he hurriedly lowered his head to meet James' eyes. On that bloody face, those amber eyes still looked at him gently and firmly.

He made up his mind at that moment.

"Please continue with the spell," he said, biting his lip.

"Magic is not free," said Vader. "You'd better think about the price you can pay."

"I have a map that may be of use in exchange. If that's not enough, I have your life," said Eden.

That map had been James's obsession, his hope to earn a city-state of his own for his prince.

A prince may not own a city-state, but he cannot lose his knights.

But fortunately for him, Vader was not interested in the treasure - the only thing he was interested in was the holy relic.

Vader completed the spell before Kane and the others noticed what was going on. In exchange, he would send the two men safely to a safe area he found outside the city. Vader disguised the scene as if the two men had suddenly attacked, killed the guards, and escaped, and hid the two men in the shadows he created to conceal their bodies.

Lucian stood on a high place, watching him quietly as he completed all this.

The negligence just now echoed in his mind. Lucian knew that this negligence was not a big deal. Wade could not have guessed his soon-to-be-transformed identity.

But the fact that Vader actually said that proved that Vader already had some suspicion about him... I don't know where that suspicion came from.

Which link went wrong

He thought.
