Transforming Succubus: Almost Doomsday

Version unknown, region unknown.

The sumptuous palace was adorned with an increasing number of decorations besides Demon Crystals.

A group of blank-eyed, gaunt men and women, barely clothed, wandered throughout the palace, while occasionally a silver-haired demon noble would take a liking to one of them, extend a tail, and wrap it around the human's wrist, claiming the merchandise.

In the depths of the palace, a silver-haired Reina stared at the message just received, her eyes filled with murderous intent.

"The Land of No Light has been destroyed, Midel."

Not long ago, Midel, who had gained supreme popularity at the demon feast, took the initiative to seek favor with Reina and exposed the Demon Emperor's conspiracy.

Midel was willing to forsake her own power and willingly become Reina's maid.

This was something many nobles found humiliating, but it was exactly because of Midel's resolution that her previous advocacy to learn from humans greatly eased her relationship with Reina.

Years ago, because of one incident, Reina remembered a man's name.

But she did not publicize it.

Because that place was her secret base, and the fall of that aerial island enraged Reina.

However, she could only endure it. The death of her "beloved daughter" Boluke also had to be endured.

Midel smiled and nodded:

"Isn't that a good thing? The Demon Emperor doesn't need an eighth. Besides, if the Eternal Night grows unchecked, its achievements might... surpass those of other Demon Emperors."

Midel was eloquent, never saying surpassing the Demon Emperor, but other Demon Emperors.

This pleased Reina.

The process in which someone influenced Midel also allowed Midel to grow.

Of course, Reina's attitude towards Midel was more like that of a pet.

This rebellious noblewoman, now willing to be her personal attendant, felt somewhat abrupt to her, and required further observation.

This was not her focus though.

The focus was on Reina hearing that name for the second time.

When the bell that shattered a nation rang through Songjiang City, she later went to Songjiang City and also found the survivor who had escaped from the island.

That survivor had now become a fleeting love in the wind.

But Reina's charm, and Midel's were not on the same level; in just a few glances, Reina made the survivor reveal everything he knew.

She was already clear about the entire incident in the Land of Joy.

Years ago, a madman escaped from the Land of Joy, but since he carried divine power, Reina never pursued it.

Later, when the asylum appeared, Reina also never explored it, only encouraging other demonkind to probe.

The result was that the asylum housed not only mad humans but also mad demonkind.

After several more waves, the asylum suspected of harboring a person named Harvey was no longer dared by any demonized or corrupt species.

Only humans, in desperate situations, would choose to enter the asylum in search for a haven.

Exchanging madness for the safety of the remainder of their life, seemed reasonable.

Reina thought that a being like Harvey would not appear again, after all, Harvey was an outsider left in Longxia.

And Longxia had strong borders. These borders kept the external corrupted species at bay.

Therefore, Reina was certain that another individual chosen actively by the new gods should not appear.

But she had not anticipated that a man named Jiang Xianwu would shatter the Land of Joy years ago.

Not long ago, when the night demons were suddenly shattered by a bright light, among the dispersing night demons, in nightmares, the name people shouted was Jiang Xianwu.

That moment, Empress Reina recalled the incident in the Land of Joy from years ago.

She realized one thing, the man named Jiang Xianwu, already had two divine relics in his possession.

What exactly does he intend to do?

Could it be that he already knows the secret in Linxiang City?

Reina originally had little regard for humans, but now, she began to take an interest in them:

"The death of the Eternal Night is not a good thing; dying by my hand is a good thing. And dying by my hand without the other six knowing is even better."

"Midel, I need you to do something."

Midel appeared very respectful:

"Please give your command."

"Although the target is a pioneer, since he targets the divine relics, he must still appear in other demonkind territories. I need you to find a man named Jiang Xianwu, investigate him, charm him."

Midel almost couldn't keep the expression on her face, but fortunately, she really resembled a human; her smile was just a bit stiff, yet still within the normal range of facial expressions:

"Is this man... very special?"

"Yes, we've charmed quite a few pioneers, but they weren't of much value. However, this man might be different."

Reina had her own motives.

On one hand, she needed to test Midel's loyalty.

If Jiang Xianwu could kill the Eternal Night, then his strength was far beyond Midel's, so sending Midel to charm such a man was akin to sending Midel to her death.

Secondly, Midel was of the demon noble lineage with silver hair, possessing powerful charm abilities.

Unlike Boluke's desire-based charm, in Reina's eyes—Boluke ultimately had too poor a lineage.

So it was also possible to use Midel to test what was so special about that Jiang Xianwu.

Of course, all these were under the premise of finding Jiang Xianwu first.

"I will also mobilize resources, do my best to find clues about that man. And once there is a clue, I hope you can, for me... bring that man into our domain."
