LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 88
88 – Shining Gulp
After enslaving Jocasta, he disposed of the captives he had captured.
They were high-ranking demons who served Jocasta as their lord.
All of them were restrained so that they could not move properly, and were driven into the room.
And let Luciella in.
The demons were able to grow in strength by eating each other.
In particular, when a low-level demon absorbs the power of a high-ranking demon, it becomes several times stronger.
“Nice to meet you guys. Thank you for being my food.”
Luciella, who had absorbed the spirit of Gnir, a giant who ate mineral bugs long ago, opened that power and began mercilessly slaughtering and eating the prisoners.
“Aww!”
“Big! buy, save… !”
“Kyaagh!”
From the room where the door was locked, demons’ screams were heard one after another.
Maru was listening to the sound with Jocasta next to him.
“How are you feeling? Is your anger rising?”
“Im sad. but i don’t hate you It must be because of witchcraft. Originally, I didn’t want to say such a thing, but when you asked me, I automatically answered. resentful.”

Jocasta growled lowly.
Even so, when he slapped his butt, he flinched and trembled.
“You are a slave. Don’t be rude.”
“It is better to die than to be humiliated. kill me! please… !”
“If you can commit suicide, try it.”
“Yeah, you know I can’t do it without your permission!”
“Can’t you die alone? If so, can you continue to live like this?”
Maru smiled and moved on.
That way we headed to Jocasta’s bedroom.
It was located in the most underground part of the castle.
Demons preferred to dwell deep in the ground rather than living high up.

Jocasta also had a shelter in a fairly deep place.
The lack of oxygen made it a bit difficult to breathe.
“Open that door.”
There was a treasure trove in a dreary room dripping with underground water.

Jocasta, who received Maru’s order, faithfully followed his instructions even though he had a disgusted expression on his face.
When she opened the door, all kinds of gold and silver treasures shone and dazzled her eyes.
“It is all mine.”
“Keugh… !”
“why? what is that expression? Hate it? Then I will ask you. Who will belong to these treasures from now on?”
“All, of course my… ugh… ! Oops, ah, my, my, ugh! Yes, it belongs to you.”
Under the influence of the slave inscription on her belly, she had to obey unconditionally.
Maru smiled and patted her shoulder.
“It is extraordinary. I’ll take it well.”
While looking around the treasure chest for a while with a happy expression, there was something that stood out.
Inside the glass box, I saw a small orb shining brilliantly.
“What is that?”
“The Shining was created by the sage Vierira a thousand years ago. It has the absolute power to block all curses.”
“You had a good one.”
Maru was interested and took a step.

Jocasta’s eyebrows twitched.
“It was something I cherished and cherished. You can’t just disappear from the world like this.”
“Disappearing from the world? What do you mean?”
“You intend to have that power. It just says let it go.”
“Is it a waste?”
“Yes. That was mine.”
“Does looking at it stop the curse?”
“I can’t stop it. You must absorb Shining, but you will not be cursed.”
“As the owner, I will ask. Do you view The Shining as an artistic value?”

Jocasta swallowed.
Under the influence of witchcraft, she answered honestly.
“Actually, I tried to absorb it a long time ago, but since Shining was made with divine power, there was a risk that if I, as a demon, absorbed it, I would suffer serious internal injuries. Unfortunately, I had no choice but to leave it as an ornament. My stomach hurts when you try to possess such Shining.”
Maru laughed out loud.
“Stop being jealous and change your mind. Shining was waiting here to meet me. You only distributed.”
I reached out for the glass box containing the Shining.
“Don’t eat well.”
I opened the lid, picked up Shining, and swallowed it in one gulp.
I felt a bright energy glow in my chest and spread throughout my body.
The corner of Maru’s mouth went up.
“I want to be cursed as a test.”

Jocasta’s face contorted.
“It was mine… !”
“You still don’t know what. all yours is mine That is the life of a loser.”
After a while, when I came up to the ground, I saw Luciella emitting tremendous energy.
After slaughtering all the prisoners locked in the room, she gained strength and became more energetic.
“lily! Look at this. I’m so ecstatic I’m going crazy Ahh… !”
“Your Highness the Crown Prince! stay away! Dangerous!”
“Should I attack?”
Knights, including Venzaris, were wary of her and kept at a distance.
Of course, Luciella was very agitated after tasting the blood.
She looked at the floor and licked her lips with her tongue with a blatant expression.
Both eyes were full of color.
“lily… !”
She believed in her own strength, which had grown several times stronger, and was about to attack the floor.
“Luciela. Calm down.”
“Isn’t it about time you granted my wish? Na-ri is overflowing with charm as time goes by, and it’s hard for me to stand it. You know I’m a succubus who likes males.”
Her madness grew stronger.
“Get your sanity back quickly.”
“look at this. This is my original look. It was rather irrational to hold back sexual desire.”
“Luciela. Do you intend to ruin our relationship?”
“!?”
Luciella hesitated as if in surprise.
Catastrophe seemed to be undesirable.
“You want to continue my secretary job, right?”
“How can I win if you say that… ”
The strong energy started to diminish.
Eventually, he regained his usual relaxed expression.
She came closer and shuddered.
“Please forgive me. I suddenly gained a lot of strength and was conceited.”
“It’s difficult when you lose control.”
Every time I catch demons in the future, I plan to give all their power to Luciella.
As much as he trusted Luciella the most among his subordinates, he planned to raise her to be a very powerful being.
“I still don’t forget the things you helped me with and engrave them deep in my bones. You are my only true ally. I don’t want to lose it, so please don’t give in to desire.”
He held her hand and gently caressed the back of her hand with his thumb.
Luciella was ecstatic and waggled her tail.
“Haaa… Nari’s love… I’m happy.”
Kiera, Lucy, and Natalie, who were watching the scene blankly.
They were shocked to see Maru’s eyes looking at Luciella.
His eyes with a warm smile were filled with affection, as if he truly cared for Luciella.
It was the look they wanted to receive.
‘That succubus bitch… ‘
Kiera frowned, and Lucy was depressed.
‘Why don’t I look at you like that… I can be naughty too.’
Natalie was motivated.
‘I’ll work even harder to receive that warm gaze! wait and see! I will definitely do it!’
At that time, Benzaris took out a notebook and was taking notes.
‘Report. There is a succubus that the prince is particularly fond of.’

The news that the sixth hero, Hanmaru, had defeated Barbasus and Jocasta, spread all over the world in an instant.
Narundra, the city of the elves.
Elder Tranuil and Wise Glomadina were having a conversation.
“It’s amazing what he did to live a normal life. We have already defeated the two Prime Evils.”
“He is the son of the famous Alexia. It must have been that he couldn’t hide the overflowing justice in his heart.”
“How proud you are.”
Tranuil looked out the peaceful window and was lost in thought.
one floor.
The recently appeared hero and the one who defeated the demon lord.
He, who seemed to be the strongest among the warriors, continued to write a legend.
‘Where’s my next move?’
The thrill of when he defeated the demon king is still unforgettable.
transformation into a monster.
The possessor of mighty power that shakes the earth.
“Hero Han Maru. I look forward to more in the future… ”
They know each other, and it doesn’t seem bad to maintain a close relationship at this point.
Shall we provide a communication channel and support the elves?
Tranuil was thinking that way.

Snowy continent Winterland.
Silence fell in the room.
Nine kings famous throughout the continent were sitting around a round table, but they were deeply troubled without much conversation.
“Our strength ends here. I can’t help it anymore. I have no choice but to borrow the strength of the warriors.”
Kings of various races broke the silence and began to speak.
“This is a global catastrophe. Let’s quickly inform them that the Demon God, who has been sleeping for 2,000 years, is about to wake up.”
“Are there a total of five warriors?”
“One person died and one person increased, so that’s five.”
“Will everyone come?”
“If you don’t come, it’s a traitor. The world is on the verge of perishing, but what are you going to do if it doesn’t come?”
“that’s right. Who would be able to handle it if the devil jumped out of the world? The world will end immediately.”
two days later.
They sent urgent letters to all continents.
Letters also arrived on the continent of Elam, where Maru lives, and shortly thereafter, leaflets began to be posted in each city saying that they were urgently recruiting warriors and adventurers in Winterland.
