"I an no harm!" Yoru announced with a wicked grin, proving false to her claim as she scanned her environnt with a calculative gaze.
[Stand down, rember what we had planned] Hisha warned lody.
Clenching her fists, lody watched by the sideline as the soldiers all tried yet another attack on Yoru.
Unlike the last ti, she twirled and covered herself and her partners in a do of flas.
Once it had cleared up, there was no trace left of them except the echoing voice of her saying: "I will get back what's mine, mark my words!"
'What's hers? What the hell is she talking about, HTC?' Hisha rubbed his chin in thought, feeling sothing was strangely off about his conception of the truth.
[That is still unclear even to the original host, this is one of the many puzzles you would have to figure out, yourself]
Facepalming, he rolled to his side to watch the screen, viewing from lody's perspective as all the soldier's attention was drawn to her.
[46:39:07]
'Bingo!' He made a gunshot gesture to the screen as he watched the soldiers apprehend lody.
[They sure are a little slow-witted]
'As it should be.' Hisha laughed as the mark had influenced their comprehension, allowing them to easily identify and view her strange presence as 'normal'.
Turning around so he laid on his back with his arms spread wide, he let out a chuckle at how easily influenced his plan would be.
[Be safe] He bid a brief farewell to lody.
Responding with a little nod, she hid her smirk with her hair cascading down her face while she was being led back to the citadel.
Opening his palm, the pearl he had kept safe in a secret vault in his wall was pulled in his direction.
Catching it in between his index and thumb, he examined its content, observing the faint flickers of glow.
'I think it's best to see what the possibility of the pearl is.'
[That is correct, but how do you plan on doing that?!]
'A certain rmaid could suffice.' Hisha grinned.
*****
At the drawbridge,
lody raised her head slightly to the creaking sound of the bridge being let down.
Trying to put up an act, lody tried to resist the chains that had bound her ankles and wrists.
The clanking sound of the tal cuff alerted the soldiers of her persistence.
"A beautiful lady like you needs not to provoke us." One of the soldiers sneered.
lody looked around at the gloomy looks on each soldier, they had lost a mber but she couldn't understand why it had hurt them so much.
"I am neither trying nor would I try without a sure successful rate." lody spat out for the first ti since they t.
Pulling her into the corridor, lody groaned in pain due to the tug on her wrists and ankles.
"Could you be a little more gentle?" She hissed, wincing at the pain.
"Save the pitiful act till we get to our lord." Another soldier sneered, pushing her so she could walk faster and ahead of them.
Zui dashed towards a pillar to hide the mont she spotted a white-haired female and so soldiers from afar.
Covering her mouth, she had hoped to stay out of their sensing range by coating herself with a cloaking spell.
'This is what you get for snooping around!' She scolded herself in her thoughts.
lody concertedly looked to her left, the very pillar in which Zui hid, and smirked at the interesting new developnt.
Sneezing so loudly and letting out tiny droplets to sprinkle on the floor.
"That's just disgusting!"
lody harrumphed the soldier's sentint on her action, not caring about their views.
Pushing her once more, they were adamant about her moving along.
Accomplishing a bit of her plan, she sighed and pressed forward toward the throne room.
Peaking out of the shadows, with her hand on the pillar, Zui heaved a sigh of relief, tilting her head at the confusing state of the event which was oblivious to the rest of the harem.
Slipping out successfully, she rushed over to her retrix-07 before she could be apprehended.
Unbeknownst to her were the droplets on the pillar which she had transferred onto herself after adjusting her A-line silk blue dress.
*****
Staring at the door, the taes opened it for their easy access as she was pushed in.
Without another word, they left her in the dead silence of a throne hall.
Slam!
lody jumped at the loud bang and searched the dimly lit place.
Thud!
lody frowned and tried to search for the originator of the noise. "Who's there?"
Coating her tal cuffs with her water, she hoped that it would rust and give way, but the sound she heard for the second ti.
"It isn't about who's there, but if you'd be alive to see who has been waiting for you." The voice sneered.
'Master?!' lody hoped with all her might that it was Hisha who had suddenly developed a mischievous side to take such a low thod at getting her.
A crackling sound could be heard as the female stepped out of the shadows.
'Oh no!' lody thought in a panic.
*****
Beep!
Beep!
[lody's distress call]
Glaring at the screen, Hisha pulled on his pants, slipping them on.
'What's wrong this ti?!' He mumbled, activating his visual interface.
The mont he viewed yellow glowing eyes inching closer and out of the shadows, he choked on his saliva, forcing him to open a portal as the quickest route.
[45:23:00]
Stepping in between lody and Alta, he looked back to stare at Alta.
She had on a black off-shoulder top with a heart-shaped cut out on her chest, revealing her ample cleavage which was pushed up slightly by her folded arms.
The top was tucked into a pair of tight-fitted pants torn on her knees and held together by a yellow belt. Her black wings had hardened and were spread out as though she had planned on attacking if he had not stepped in at just the right ti.
'Now that's hot.' Hisha drooled over her choice of clothing, temporarily forgetting what he had wanted to settle.
[I can't believe I have to say this, but concentrate on your main objective, host! The succubus has a low patience level]
'Fuck! Right!'
"Why are you here?" He questioned, trying his best to calm her down with his warm smile, simultaneously trying to distract her by obstructing lody as much as possible.
"Darling, what's going on?" She switched her tone to a much higher pitched and overly forced voice as a pout could be seen.
[Exp 3]
Hisha had a smirk on his face, satisfied that he could still get a reaction from her even in a situation like the one he found himself in.
lody had averted her gaze elsewhere, weary about the glare Alta gave whenever their eyes locked.
'Danger, she's an epito of darkness!' lody's eyes shook with the realization.
Just like Yoru, there was sothing oddly strange about her intimidating power level.
Feeling insignificant about such great won who were after Hisha, she let out a sigh of disappointnt in her condition and her incompetence to match up with any of the ladies.
"Are you jealous?" Hisha teased, trying to diffuse the tension in the air.
Alta stared down lody who was safely out of her reach because of Hisha in between them.
Flashing a crooked smile, Alta tilted her head and calmly replied. "We both know how far my jealousy goes to weaklings."
Her comnt was a slap to her little pride, she had almost spilled the fact that she had caused enough damage once to not be in such a category.
Refraining from speaking, she bit down on her bottom lips, cursing at the succubus.
"You made a promise to , rember!" Hisha reminded, firm in his words as he glared at her attempt to go against him.
Alta's eyes widened in horror, shaking her head and her wings imdiately softened to their original form as she folded them.
"I would never..." She mumbled, looking down after his warning.
Hisha facepald, shaking his head, with a snap of his fingers, the cuffs on her hand were let loose and dropped to the floor.
lody was elated by the action, rubbing her wrists, after inhaling, the welts which had ford were covered with glowing blue water that healed her wounds and was absorbed by her body.
"You are another rmaid in here?!" Alta blurted out in blind rage, narrowing her eyes in suspicion. Her yellow eyes glowed as she could make out who lody was.
