Chapter – 33

EP.33 His Night is Long and Profound

Demons prowled within dreams, hunting their prey.

Among the entities most commonly known to people were succubus and incubus.

They fed on human vitality through dreams, yet throughout history, humans were not always abundant. There were times of severe population decline due to plagues and frequent wars.

During those times, like other monsters, they resorted to cannibalism, succubus preying on incubus or vice versa.

However, with stability prevailing, those seeking to cannibalize their own kind vanished.

There was simply no reason for them to struggle to consume each other when they could easily feed on weak humans.

“Promising.”

But there was one who had engaged in cannibalism, which had not been talked for a long time. a particular incubus named ‘Lucaros’.

Lucaros was the master of an incubus dungeon.

It wasn’t a massive dungeon, yet neither was it small. It held a decent size and maintained a considerable influence.

And not long ago, Lucaros received a message from the overseer of the Demon Merchant.

It was a request to handle just one succubus.

Lucaros accepted without much thought.

His contact, Jewel, held a significant position within the Demon Merchant.

Helping now might secure advantageous terms for future dealings, settling debts in due course.

Such debts could pave the way for better trades with the Demon Merchant later on.

This, in turn, would facilitate the dungeon’s development.

Moreover, as the dungeon master, his own power would surge with its advancement, elevating the status of his subordinates.

In the structure where the master’s power rise meant a rise for the underlings, there was no entity that would oppose the development of the dungeon.

And the dungeon’s development required the Demon Merchant.

Ultimately, it was a recurring tale following the previous narratives.

Hence, Lucaros willingly accepted Jewel’s request and was currently on his way, not particularly keen on incurring debts.

Recently, Lucaros felt bored and welcomed some change.

“it’s been a long time since I had succubus.”

Lucaros’s expression was cold yet arrogant.

According to Jewel, the succubus was the master of a small, new dungeon.

That implied he could easily overpower the succubus and drain its vitality.

“Is this the place?”

Lucaros soon entered a mountain range.

Though disguised in a human form, being fundamentally a monster, he had no concerns about physical stamina.

In fact, he was eagerly racing toward the location Jewel had disclosed, driven by the desire to quickly subdue his opponent.

“... “

However, a sudden gust of wind halted Lucaros in his tracks.

The pleasantly blowing breeze caused flowers and leaves to dance gracefully.

The chirping of birds delighted the ears and uplifted the mood.

It felt as though the wind was infusing him with passion and vitality.

“Ah... should I consider having a dungeon in a place like this too?”

Perhaps plundering the succubus’s dungeon would be one way to go.

The place was undeniably beautiful and enchanting enough to spark such thoughts in his mind.

While lost in thought, someone approached.

“Oh, are you an adventurer?”

Lucaros turned to face the speaker.

‘An adventurer?’

The attire suggested as much, and most importantly, it was a woman.

Moreover, a very attractive one.

‘She seems rather low-ranked.’

Despite his appearance, he seemed like an average adventurer with no exceptional abilities.

Considering she hadn’t recognized him while he was disguised as a human, she probably wasn’t worth much attention.

However, Lucaros was an incubus.

He couldn’t just let such a fresh and appetizing prey pass by unattended.

He smiled and engaged the adventurer in conversation.

“Hehe, I was just about to head to a nearby dungeon. Would you care to accompany me?”

There was a sticky quality to Lucaros’s words.

It felt both forced and comfortable, yet at the same time, an unfamiliar emotion arose.

“Yes, sure!”

The adventurer smiled, agreeing.

‘Good.’

The woman in front of him would serve as a final treat after succumbing to the succubus.

With a sly grin, Lucaros led the adventurer, who was unwittingly his, towards his goal.

Eventually, they reached the vicinity of the dungeon he aimed for.

“Is this it?”

A cave was hidden among the trees.

Looks alone, it seemed really unimpressive.

No, it wasn’t an adventurer from the beginning.

Lucaros’s mind went blank.

He was confused about what he was thinking or saying.

But one thing was certain.

The trapped one was him.

And the opponent wasn’t just any succubus.

“Please....”

Lucaros pleaded.

“I was foolish. Please spare my life, Your Highness!”

A being surpassing the succubus queen in prowess.

That’s why Lucaros cried out, begging even more desperately for his insignificant life.

Simultaneously, he cursed Jewel for luring him here.

“If I spare your life, what can you do for me?”

A sweet proposition flowed in.

Lucaros immediately spoke up.

“The mastermind behind this! I’ll tell you who it is!”

Lucaros banged his head on the ground, pleading.

“If you spare me, I won’t leave the incubus dungeon again! I beg of you!”

Not leaving the dungeon was impossible, but in this situation, what else could he say?

He was desperate.

“An incubus dungeon... well, alright. I’ll accept your proposal. But you’ll have to seek permission from the master.”

Hope flickered in Lucaros’ face.

The mention of another master briefly puzzled him, but it didn’t matter.

Hope of surviving.

Hope of staying alive emerged.

– Ding! –

The smartphone alarm went off.

“Phone.”

The skeleton soldier, who was cleaning, swiftly brought the smartphone and presented it to me.

“What’s the alarm for this time?”

– Apostle Celia has a request for you. –

A request? If it’s from Celia, I intended to consider it.

“Let’s see what request she’s made.”

I checked the request sent by Celia.

The gist was this.

How to handle a lost incubus.

“Oh!”

That shouldn’t be too difficult. A lost incubus should be a straightforward matter to deal with.

“Come to think of it, weren’t there some following me?”

I immediately checked the list of dungeon supporters.

One of the incubus dungeons, where Celia was dispatched last time and swore allegiance to me, still had their presence.

As they pledged loyalty to me, I could support that particular dungeon anytime.

“It would be nice to make friends with more of them.”

I commanded Celia to be dispatched to the specific incubus dungeon and guide the lost incubus.

“Oh, to think that the master even cares about this aspect.”

An incubus dungeon located on Earth.

Azmo, the master of that dungeon, looked at Lucaros, brought by Celia, with admiration.

The beings here were always hungry, not in a position to withhold food.

“The master is always merciful, Azmo.”

Celia smiled as she handed Lucaros to Azmo.

This way, Lucaros could keep his word.

The promise not to leave the incubus dungeon.

Tonight will be deep, and tomorrow, tomorrow’s night will come.
