*Kuk!*
A stream of blood trickled down the Succubus Queen's lips following a violent fit of coughing. The shock from these devastating revelations forced her to lean back and simply stare up at all the long lines of fancy books that surrounded her. In her head, dread settled in and made its ho wherever it could.
At this point, Amaris's brain signals flatlined.
If only for a brief period of ti, she had beco a vegetable…
However, when she finally ca to, she saw her charming daughter shaking her shoulders. But behind her daughter, she observed faint illusions of a wolf-like man matching Cassius's description. The wolf was staring at Flora as if she were a tantalizing five-star dinner, all while wearing a mocking gleam in his eyes.
That mocking look haunted Amaris's thoughts… until she eventually snapped and launched to her feet.
WAAA!!
An incredibly powerful purple aura exploded outward from the Succubus Queen. Not just the castle, but even the land across millions of miles felt the full brunt force of the woman who was once heralded as one of the most vicious and tyrannical won in the Realm of Pleasure.
Even now, she had not lost her touch, as even the Awakeners Beyond the SSS-Rank felt primordial fear welling up inside them. The Hegemons from outside the Aluria territory also felt this overpowering aura, and though it didn't affect them much, they could still determine that Amaris was as powerful as ever.
This caused several Rulers to deeply frown, especially the ones at odds with the Queen of the Succubi.

"I'll just have to kill this human!!" A booming shout reverberated throughout the confines of the enormous palace as a divinely beautiful woman in scantily-dressed attire stord out of the Palace Library. "I'll kill him!!"
However, before Amaris could do sothing foolish and regret it later, Flora, her daughter, clasped onto her hand.
"???"
"You mustn't kill him, Mother!" Flora hurriedly explained upon seeing the scary face her mother was making. "He's my First Mark, rember!? He can't die yet! And definitely not by your hands!!"
Amaris's senses gradually returned to her as her mighty aura receded into her body, restoring her presence to the epito of tranquility and lust. She turned toward her daughter and said, "I'm sorry… I lost my mind for a mont there… But this boy… Is he trying to stick a skewer in everything I've been trying to achieve…? Where did soone like him even co from? Is he not actually from the Trial Area of the Ascension Tower of Humanity??"
Seeing that her mother had cald down made Flora breathe a sigh of relief. Afterward, her gaze turned serious as she answered, "That is not the case, Mother. I ran a few background checks on him a little while ago, and he was indeed born on the Trial Floor of the Ascension Tower of Humanity. Though, I did learn that he used to look far different than he does now. Furthermore, he has several conditions that should render him unable to do what he does. And then there's his strength… Although not objectively strong, he still possesses far more power than soone who hasn't Awakened should possess… He's even stronger than I am…"
"!??" 'Even stronger than Flora…? And he's not an Awakened?? Why didn't Grace ntion this earlier???'
Amaris certainly had so things to discuss with her eldest daughter later, but for now, she needed so ti to think about this convoluted sh*tstorm.
However, before she could excuse her daughter and Elder Protector Violet, the forr spoke up first, saying:
"Mother, you reacted to Cassius like you previously knew sothing about him. What was that all about? Do you know him…?"
Amaris's mouth soundlessly moved before she caved in and decided to say, "I don't know him, but your sister does. And they… Haiz…"
"My sister? Grace?" Flora parroted in confusion, while thinking, 'What sort of relationship do they have…?'
"Now, if that is all, it's ti for you two to go," Amaris ordered plainly, with her intangible energy already pushing the duo out of the huge, resplendent library. "I'll settle everything from here, so don't do anything with that boy just yet."
Although taken aback by the sudden movent displacent, Flora deferentially responded, "Yes, Mother."
*Thwack!*
The library doors closed behind Elder Protector Violet and Flora. And in the sa mont, the latter's thoughts betrayed her true intentions. 'I'm sorry, Mother, but I have to grow up at so point. And this is sothing I can do myself.'
Her heart overflowed with resolve as she spun on her heel and began walking in a certain direction. "I'm going to see my elder sister. Are you coming with?" she asked without turning around.
Surprise ford on Violet Evergreen's sleepy features, but after a mont, her eyes closed again and she replied, "Yes, I'll follow you and protect you, Young Miss."
"Very good."
With that, the two drop-dead gorgeous won disappeared into the folds of the Aluria Palace.
Their destination: Grace's Room.

Like a fleeting shadow or the grains of sand in an hourglass, several hours passed by in the outside world. And now… now was the day when everything would go down.
It was marriage day!
"Whi-whi-whistle... fweee-fweee-fwoo... tweee-tweee-fwee..."
A clear, lodic, and light tune with a lilting, rhythmic flow echoed throughout a large mansion in the affluent part of Hoshito. Bella was singing a song that made the tune feel playful, and was currently downstairs cooking up sothing scrumptious.
Surprisingly, she was the first awake today.
"...Hmm…?" Groggily opening his eyes, Cassius felt the all-too-familiar weight on top of him. More importantly, however, was the llow tune filling the air. 'Is that Bella? I had no idea she had such a nice voice…'
There were many things he didn't know about her.
After slipping out of the pile of enticing bodies holding him down, Cassius made his way down the stairs of the mansion.
