As we ca into town, a familiar face quickly ca in my direction with wobbly steps. She had tears rolling in her eyes as she rushed with extre urgency. As soon as she reached my position, she fell forward and embraced as she let out soft sobs.
"Fina?"
I muttered in doubt.
Although she looked like Vice Chief Fina from the first town I and Ember stayed in at a glance, a lot of things were different from her appearance. For example, she had curved horns on top of her head, peeking through her fluffy brown hair. On her back, two small, dark red bat-like wings extended, and a long, arrow-tipped tail extended from her behind.
"A succubus?"
Before I could process all the information, my attention was sucked into her large knockers, which were now pressing hard into my chest. As Ember did the sa a short while ago, I can't help but automatically compare them. And, yeah, Fina's was definitely larger.
I gently patted her head as she cried.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
I asked with the gentlest tone I could use. As soon as I did, Fina's shoulders twitched as she lifted her face off my chest.
"R-Right! It's Chief Julia! She... Co with !"
Other than the na of the one she wanted to help, I couldn't get much information from her words. She tried pulling my hands along, but her steps were still wobbly. I pulled her arm to pass behind my back as I pulled her waist close, supporting her as she walked.
"Thanks... It's that way."
With my support, she seemingly cald down a little. I quickly headed to where she pointed, with the girls following behind .
We entered the governnt building, the place where Ember teleported us right next to, and went to one of the private rooms. I noticed that it was the sa room where she spoke to in the past.
However, instead of the sofa set in the middle, a body lay there, fallen and unmoving.
"Is she dead?!"
I gently let go of Fina before rushing to the side of the woman, seemingly nad Julia. I checked her pulse and breathing, and luckily, although faint, they existed.
I stared at her intently and quickly noticed the anomaly. Two different types of energy were clashing inside her body. One energy was of a bloody red color, while the other was of a golden hue. Their clash ends with the red one devouring the gold slowly.
Every clash ends up damaging the surrounding organs and nerves, even the arteries. If this phenonon isn't stopped, then it would endanger Julia's life.
I frowned. Although I could see the cause, I couldn't do anything to help. I may have the ability to explode the energies inside the body, but I lack the technique to calm them down.
As I was lanting my powerlessness, a voice echoed in my head.
[The succubus Lord has awakened. It's now calling those with its bloodline to its side. You need to overwrite its control if you want to save them.]
The voice vanished as quickly as it appeared. It was definitely different from Brother Mountai's voice, but I felt a weird sense of familiarity with it. I'm sure it wasn't one of the three that appeared before.I think you should take a look at
'Then that one's either the fla or the half-winged phoenix.'
I looked over at Julia while digesting what the voice inside my head said. "Overwrite Control" sounds complex, but I have just the right ability to use it for that; furthermore, I gained it just recently.
"Everyone, it seems like so Succubus Lord is awakening its bloodline all over the world and calling for them. Julia is one of them, and probably Fina too."
I quickly explained the information I got to everyone. Ying Yue frowned deeply, repeating my words.
"Succubus Lord...? Is it the one that appeared in the sky perhaps?"
To her question, I nodded my head. The timing was too perfect to say that they're not related. 9 out of 10, that floating figure should be the Succubus Lord that the voice told about.
"Right. And now, I need to overwrite its control over Julia to stop the rampaging energy inside her."
When I said this, everyone quickly realized what I was planning.
"You want to place her under the Servant Contract too?"
Ying Yue asked with a deeper frown. When I turned to her, she quickly blushed as she shifted her gaze away. She had been like this since that night, making it awkward for to interact with her.
"I promised God Zeshion to not abuse this ability, so rest assured. This is an ergency, so I need to do it."
With the Servant Contract, other than the required daily proximity to , there are not many limitations. The largest drawback, the change in appearance, isn't a problem since she now looks completely like a succubus. Even if her bloodline awakens, her appearance shouldn't change much.
"Fina, in respect of Julia, who's unconscious, I want you to approve of this on her behalf. This is the only way to save her."
I asked Fina, kneeling on the floor not far away, with an urgent tone. Every second lost is a risk, as I don't know how long Julia's body could still last. I looked at Fina, waiting for her reply.
"... Alright. Do it, Will."
As soon as she gave permission, I quickly perford the Servant Contracting process. It wasn't that difficult compared to taming monsters. Even in Ying Yue's and the others' cases, plain words were enough to initiate it.
I willed to place Julia under a contract with , and after I did, she glowed with a short burst of white light. The white light quickly pushed the red energy out, leaving the gold one inside her.
