King of succubus

Chapter 150 The Squad Of The Shadow!



"Something is wrong, my lord?" Noddra asked him, seeing his eyes, which are usually placid, to have such a strange glow.

"Noddra, before we get to the heart of the subjects, I would like to know one thing. Has this fruit reached ripe age?" He asked in a slightly excited voice.

"Hm? Well, this is indeed the case. But you can't consume this fruit. Not that you don't have the right to do so, but it's just that you're not like us. So it could be dangerous for you." He responded with a hint of concern.

"Are u okay? Obviously I'm not going to eat this thing even if I'm forced to. Sigh, in short, I was only wondering if it is possible to release the queen with this fruit. If she manages to consume it, she will not only be able to live without needing my blood for several years but there is also a high probability that the strange bond that forces her to submit will break." Alvine explained the funds of his thought when he realized that Noddra had misinterpreted his goal.

Noddra's eyes widened when he heard Alvine's nonchalant words. "My heart fills itself with joy by seeing you so attentive and worried about her Highness when you have just met. It seems that fate is favorable to us to have chosen you."

"Eh? AHEM. In short, what about the answer?" Alvine asked with a bitter smile. 'I feel bad for him to have imagined myself with such attention of benevolence for someone who is nothing but an unknown person.'

"Unfortunately, she is unable to consume this fruit in its current state. We had tried at our previous meeting but she, who had always watched and pampered this plant could no longer bear the pleasant scent that emanated from it. Sigh, we had tried all the tricks possible but there was nothing to do. No matter, our efforts were in vain." He affirmed with a hint of sadness that made his eyes more bloody red.

Alvine sighed internally to Noddra's answer. 'I suspected that it wasn't going to be as simple as that. Even if I doubt that the legend about the origins of this plant is not entirely false, vampires too and their powers are granted by the flower when it was probably in the form of the tree of creation.' He concludes with these lines words addressed to himself.

"I understand. In this case, let's go inside." Says Alvine, advancing towards the small luxurious hut with pure white silk curtains that were in the middle of the garden. There was not much inside this one except two chairs and a small round table in the middle.

Arriving inside, Noddra brought a bottle of wine that was kept cool in a small cold storage cabinet at the other end of the room. With a glance, Alvine directly guessed the contents of the bottle. "I'm surprised that you have this wine right here. Does the queen also like this flavor?" He asked while Noddra was pouring him the Kelspie wine into his glass. The reason for his question was that this place was supposed to be reserved only for the Queen. So it was normally obvious that everything that was here belonged to her.

But contrary to his expectations, Noddra shook his head. "No my lord, this bottle and the second chair are here only for you in the hope of enjoying the Queen's company." He responded with a mysterious smile.

"Why would I do that?" Asked Alvine with a frown.

"Hoho, don't be too on your guard. This is quite normal."

Not understanding Noddra's words, Alvine slightly nodded. "It's new for me to see you making jokes. In short, let's talk about serious things now. What is the current situation on the front?" He asked without delay once again.

Noddra's smile narrowed when he heard his question. His expression became solemn and answered Alvine's question.

"The third advisor who had taken ten of our men with him to scout has not sent news since last night. But according to their latest urgent reports, they had faced enemies who were of a higher level than all the magic beasts we had faced so far. We don't know much but... according to my hypothesis, we have to face another horde of beasts that will be even more aggressive and powerful than the other previous hordes." He announced with a solemn expression.

"It was to be expected." Alvine nodded by sharing his theory. Unlike them, he knew that this planet, which was a Tier Three planet, would not be home to simple weak emperor-ranking beasts. The reason why vampires do not take this invasion seriously is just that they have not yet met tough opponents since their developments on this planet. Kelspies and ice elves are just prey compared to predators who have been hiding in the shadows for millennia.

"During the first war, you fought on the planet. What was the rank of the toughest animals you had faced?" He continued.

Noddra supported his chin with his thumb while remembering events dating back centuries before giving Alvine a satisfactory answer. "Hmm, from my memories, I think it was a low-ranking divine beast that mastered three elementary affinities. It was a Wyvern of disaster class with fire, wind, and earth. Although he was on the same level as the advisors, we were still powerless in the face of this magical beast. If the Queen had not intervened to arrest him, we would not be here to have this conversation."

"A low-level divine Wyvern, you say? Hmm, this war is not going to be so simple in the end." He concludes after hearing Noddra's explanation. 'Sylvia will be forced to intervene to take care of Garyth's apostle. But still, I can still feel the ferocious energy of other magical beasts that are probably at the same level, or even more powerful than the beast of that time. And at the moment...

He closed his eyes and extended his perception hundreds of kilometers from his position. After a dozen seconds, he opened his golden pupils which were like gold cut into a small golden pearl. '...At the moment, I can see a Wyvern heading straight towards the border. And according to the aura of death that emanates from him, I am almost sure that it was this Wyvern that massacred the third counselor and his group of scouts.' He continued the lines of his thought.

"M-my lord, what do you mean by that?" Noddra asked nervously when he saw Alvine's solemn expression.

"Sigh, it will be faster if I show you what is currently happening in the forest exactly three hundred places from us." He said sipping in his glass and then whispered Darka's name by invoking his shadow knight.

His shadow wavered behind his chair and Darka knelt behind him at the same time.

"!!!" Noddra directly invoked his bloody red sword from the moment he saw Darka's shadow behind Alvine!

"Hoohoo, stay calm. He's my subordinate, you have nothing to fear so put away this sword. This guy is not too sociable towards others; if you attack him, it will be problematic for you." Alvine urgently arrested him before he made he moved toward Darka.

"This... thing... your subordinate? Who is he? No, rather, what is it?!" Noddra did not lower his guard by hearing Alvine's words. Even better, he tightened his grip on the wrist of his sword.

"No time for explanations." He said to Noddra. Then he addressed Darka without giving her a look.

"Darka, I have a scout mission for you. Go into the forest to the north five hundred kilometers away and spy incognito the horde that is there. Once there, you will give me the signal." He said by opening a dark portal between Darka who was behind his chair and himself.

"It will be done according to your wishes, my lord." Drake's thunderous and distant voice resounded throughout the garden before crossing the gate.

Noddra had a mouth wide open when he saw the actions of Alvine and this entity that had nothing human or alive!

It had only passed ten seconds before Alvine, who had her eyes closed while monitoring Darka's journey, suddenly opened her eyes. Then, a small dark tunnel appeared like a mirror in the middle of the table in which, Noddra could see about a thousand magical beasts that were all in the holy and emperor rank, except one! It was a Wyvern with predatory green pupils and an incredibly gigantic size; it was the tenth general of Garyth's apostle's army.

"!!!" Noddra forgot to breathe at the sight of this horde that was making its way to the border with a low-level divine Wyvern. Who was at the same rank as the Wyvern of centuries ago, or even more powerful than him!

"It was probably this horde that had exterminated the third counselor and his squad!" Alvine spoke in a placid and distant tone as if he were in no way affected by the death of these people. This was actually the case since he had never met the third advisor, not to mention the small army that accompanied him.

"It's... more serious than we had planned!" He stammered these words with bitter feelings. "I must notify the Queen and the other kings as soon as possible. We must prepare to intercept this calamity as soon as possible!" He said, rising suddenly on his chair.

But Alvine stopped him before he got out of the hut. "You must keep your strength for future battles. I can assure you that this horde is only a tiny part of the strength of your invaders. So in your opinion, what will happen if you exhaust yourself fighting this horde?"

Noddra stopped in his steps by understanding the meanings of Alvine's words. "So what do you propose, my lord? Our usual troops will not be large in the face of such a large army. If we send them to the front, it will be like the sent to the slaughterhouse!" He says these words with agitation. Obviously, Alvine could see through his eyes that they had no chance of winning this battle without the intervention of the leaders.

Sigh

"So what do you think about this, I'm going to send reinforcements to Darka to weaken them until they reach the border?" He proposed this idea with a derogatory sigh.

"..."

Seeing Noddra silent, he took his silence for a yes. Then without delay, he got up from his chair and went out under the hut followed by Noddra who followed in his footsteps behind him.

Contrary to his hypothesis, Noddra was more than perplexed when he heard his proposal. One thing was certain for him, he would never let Alvine go there in person because he no longer had the same status as before. But on the other hand, he was curious to know what Alvine intended to do.

Once outside, Alvine stopped, his hands in his pockets while he murmured for himself. "All those who are not in the process of digestion, go out!" He said in a placid tone.

-WVOOO!!

Its shade spread over the garden floor among the flowers like an anchor poured by changing the pleasant and peaceful atmosphere of the garden into a desolate place infested with an aura of death! As the shadow soldiers came out in his shadow, the flowers and plants that had no catch began to fade and die at a speed that could not escape their eyes.

"!!!" A shiver of fear traveled Noddra's spine at the sight of this demonic and Indescribable scene. In front of him, or rather in front of Alvine who was nonchalantly standing by his side.

'Hm? Just fifteen? Does this mean that there are about four shadow soldiers who are out of service? Sigh, I hope they will evolve just like Darka afterward.' He said to himself by turning his head towards Noddra who was next to him with his muscles tense.

"It's a little insignificant but let's hope they can do a little better than according to my calculations." He affirmed by opening the same portal to Darka's location. As these shadow soldiers were unable to articulate with words, he transmitted his orders by telepathy.

-Step by step

Soldiers in jet armor and heavily armed with weapons according to their affinities and classes crossed the gate at breathtaking speed.

"Let's go inside, I'm curious to know how Noddra intends to fight this battle without my instructions." He announced nonchalantly by entering under the luxurious hut.
