Reincarnated as incubus: I didn't mean to seduce you!

If they didn’t want to save Elanna but had no way to do so, then the problem was much more serious.

Was it really Count Rezhe of the Charles family who did it?

Kael didn’t believe it anyway.

If Count Rezhe had indeed committed the murder so openly without cleaning up the aftermath, that would definitely be quite strange.

Judging by the Charles family’s actions in this Noble Council, his nominal uncle seemed to be the type of old-fashioned noble who valued reason over emotion and strictly adhered to noble codes.

Arrogant yet not ignorant, observant of rules yet grand in his actions.

He wielded power to oppress others.

Such an ostentatious murder would surely bring great trouble to the Charles family.

Keep in mind that although the enfeoffment of the emerging nobility was implemented by each duchy, it was sanctioned by the Bell Federation.

The new nobles were nobles of Lancaster, and more importantly, they were also nobles of the Bell Federation.

According to the game’s development, first, Lancaster would lose a top Holy Land lord loyal to the knight’s code. Then, his offspring would die for unknown reasons, and even his fiancée, who could inherit the title, would die on this land.

Basically, it equated to the annihilation of an entire family.

Was this a provocation against all Federation nobles, or a blatant disregard for the Federation Noble Council?

Once such a precedent was set, today you can slaughter the heirs of emerging nobles for your own benefit; tomorrow you could ruthlessly eliminate neighboring lords competing with you.

The day after tomorrow, could it be possible to rob and kill the noble lords guarding other territories?

By next year, would it reach the point where you move against the Caesar Governor of the Bell Federation?

If you dare to do so, the first ones to attack you would be the lords surrounding your territory.

This was clearly a behavior that would undermine the foundation of the Bell Federation’s order, an unbreakable bottom line.

Or even if you were going to take action, couldn’t you make sure no evidence was left behind?

Speaking of which, it was a bit strange. According to the rewards Elanna gave players in the original storyline, as per [Lanyxia], they were supposed to be her own rewards earned from delving into the dungeon.

Did Baron Newman just watch her ruin herself without offering any support?

That didn’t seem like something the doting Uncle Newman would do...

So, were there other hidden threats on the territory he wasn’t aware of?

He glanced at Elanna, who wore a joyful smile, and made a decision in his heart.

No matter who was scheming behind the scenes, Kael truly liked Elanna’s personality and was naturally unwilling to see this Ice Rose-like girl perish.

Upon arriving in this world and merging with his predecessor, he inherited the predecessor’s memories.

According to the introductory guidebook "Book of the Dead" from the Necromancy School of the Mage Academy, the death of the flesh led to the immortality of the spirit, but the body as a vessel could stabilize and absorb the remnants of thought.

Therefore, living beings with bodies had strong desires and rich emotions because their bodies were intertwined with complex mental emotions, inseparable.

The undead, having lost their bodies, also lost many desires and emotions. Undead creatures generally had a [Compulsory Calm] effect because they lost their ability to express emotions.

Undead incapable of absorbing residual thoughts demonstrated an intense desire for living flesh and hostility towards the living for this reason.

They needed living flesh to absorb residual thoughts, the reason why the undead were considered enemies of the living.

As Master Sandrew of the early Necromancy School put it, the undead, rather than being hostile to the living, craved the redemption of the flesh.

So the unification of spirit and flesh in the Necromancy School represented a special state that stabilized necromantic spells and enhanced mental spells.

Kael, using the power of the system panel, successfully achieved this state.

This was why Kael could take everything around him so naturally upon arriving in this world.

He was Kael, and also Ning Ruyu.

But he could also be said to be neither Kael nor Ning Ruyu.

He was simply himself.

A new entity wholly marked with his own brand, entirely becoming Kael.D.Helois from body to soul,.

He only needed to follow his heart.

Who wouldn’t love a red-haired female knight who said to you, "Maintaining your partner’s dignity is a knight’s pride"?

Using Elanna’s death as a catalyst to spur a Federation investigation, eventually leading to the destruction of the Charles family and igniting the prologue to the turmoil in Lancaster Duchy?

Whoever wanted to come, bring it on, he had sworn to protect this woman, and nobody would succeed, as he proclaimed.

After determining his thoughts, Kael made up his mind without hesitation.

As evening approached and seeing Elanna, dressed in formal attire and somewhat troubled, he sent her off in her carriage and returned to his study.

He picked up a quill, dipped it in ink, and wrote the first sentence on paper—

"Dear Mr. Luxius Parker,"

"..."

After finishing the letter, Kael stretched, waved the wet letter to dry the ink, and after a moment of thought, a little tail of the incubus reached in front of him.

Petals bloomed.

The fragrance of Queen Jasmine condensed on the letter.

He folded the letter, sealed it with wax, and handed it to Old White, instructing him to send it to the Royal Capital.

"Let’s consider this an extra backup for myself... No, with just three layers, it feels a bit insecure. Since that’s the case, let’s also involve the players and issue a special quest."

...

In the real world, in a certain virtual network platform chat group.

[House of Dog Empire Chat Group]

Touring Empty Mountains: "Down on luck, folks. I didn’t expect I’d end up playing the entire night just to capture a group of wild deer. This game is truly addictive!"

Nasilia: "Xiao You, did you accept a player quest?"

Touring Empty Mountains: "Yes, the quest was quite difficult. Attracting the wild deer wasn’t a problem, thanks to the good stuff given by that lord.

Nasilia: "One must say, being an incubus really shows. Do you know how he made the hallucinogenic potion? Look at this! (Kael’s little tail.jpg)

Touring Empty Mountains: "This wild man is really handsome though. Haha, I really like such NPCs."

Coconut Juice Mixed with Green Tea: "Am I the only one lost in the forest? Damn it! Someone from our village said I could level up fast by fighting monsters in the jungle after forming a party. Now I’m stuck in the forest. Should I try dying to see if it helps?"

Touring Empty Mountains: "Is there any possibility, just a thought, Cha Cha, that you were tricked? Haha!"

Coconut Juice Mixed with Green Tea: "It can’t be. I felt I gained a lot in the forest. But it’s so desolate here, and the mosquitoes are really annoying. Damn it, this game always focuses on details where it shouldn’t!"

Love Xiao Yi: "What are you all talking about? It seems interesting."

Touring Empty Mountains: "???"

Nasilia: "???"

Coconut Juice Mixed with Green Tea: "???"

...

Finally, a group member with the nickname "Nan Ke" spoke.

Nan Ke: "Xiao Yi, didn’t you use the beta test code Xiao You got us?"

Love Xiao Yi: "What is that? Let me check the chat history... "

A few minutes later, he spoke again.

Love Xiao Yi: "Maybe I passed out from too much exercise before sleep... I mean, I had too many late-night snacks and drinks, and got a stomach ache. Don’t think too much."

Nan Ke: "It’s alright, Xiao Yi, we’re all friends here. We understand, we really do!"

Love Xiao Yi: "I’ll enter the game now to see what kind of game earns your high praise. If it’s not fun, I’ll suggest you treat me to spicy strips tonight."
