Chapter 54.4
“I wish to have a succubus as a wife!”
But that “special treatment” couldn’t be fulfilled. Curly Kale shook her head with a sad look.
“I’m sorry, but in our country, we can’t marry a man and a woman like humans do. I appreciate your volunteering, but you’ll have to deal with ten people every day… And just so you know, succubi can’t have human children.”
“Then forgive my words! I’m happy just to have a lovely succubus who wants to kiss me!”
The man became ecstatic upon hearing the number ten. His eyes became bloodshot. Curly Kale didn’t know why, but he seemed excited for some reason.
“That means, essentially, you want to be consumed like regular food, right?”
“Is that how it would be? I’ve never been eaten, so I don’t know.”
“Wouldn’t that be rude?”
“No, not in my opinion.”
“Hmm.”
She thought that humans didn’t like that kind of thing. That’s what Curly Kale believed, but since these were humans who voluntarily offered themselves to be a food source for another species, they probably didn’t have a normal sense of common courtesy.
“With your permission!”
The next man who caught her attention was a gloomy-looking man. In one word, his body odor was very strong. Among this group of people who didn’t seem to have bathed in several days, his body odor was extraordinarily foul. His breath smelled as well. Of course, from a succubus’s point of view, it was an appetizing scent.
“If you don’t make a disgusted face during the ‘process’… well, if you can at least pretend, please have a happy expression…”
“There’s no way we’ll make a disgusted face while you’re feeding us, right? When they’re eating you, I’m sure they’ll be delighted and happy.”
“Ah, really?”
“Yes, that’s how it will be. But yes… so, what you’re saying is that you also want to be consumed like we do normally”? Curly Kale had no idea why this man would suggest such a thing.
She didn’t know. She didn’t know that there were many humans who lost their jobs and became bandits after the war, instead of getting married, or that they were forced to wander the world. And she didn’t know that many of them were not taken seriously by human women. The ones who were there were all those who not only had not been given a chance, but had also been rejected by women from other countries.
“I…”
Then, one after another, the men spoke about their desires. Humans would say, “Wow, how bold,” but the succubus would say, “In short, you want to be consumed normally, right?”.
“So, you really came here to be our “food,” didn’t you?”
“Y-yes.”
When everyone finished introducing themselves, the voice of the Succubus Queen was very low. Her eyes were also very intense.
Succubi were natural enemies for men. No matter how strong they were, they couldn’t even resist a low-class succubus just by being charmed. Men could only tremble when targeted by high-class succubi among them.
Frankly, they were defeated by their sexual desires. They tried everything to marry one of the beastwomen on the occasion of the third princess’s wedding, but no one paid them any attention, and after a long journey without money, they ended up becoming bandits. But when they thought they would soon be defeated and die, they received an invitation from Nazar. They didn’t care if the succubi had problems or not. Before they died, they wanted to have a good time, even if it was with succubi. With that thought alone, they came to the Succubus Nation.
In other words, they tried to treat succubi as if they were prostitutes. The Succubus Queen saw through their ill intentions. She thought about it and involuntarily straightened up.
“…” She could easily devour them to death right here and now. The queen straightened her posture. Then, she elegantly inclined her head in a human-like manner. “Thank you for your help, humans. I, the humble succubus queen Curly Kale, on behalf of all the hungry succubi, thank you.”
Curly Kale looked up and smiled softly. The men were astonished, but slowly their faces broke into a smile and they chuckled. After the war, rarely had a woman gifted them with a smile that wasn’t fake, or even a smile at all. For them, Curly Kale’s smile was too radiant. It was also too dazzling to see a woman dressed in such an erotic outfit sitting so comfortably.
“Once this audience is over, we will take you to your rooms. Please feel free to ask for anything from whoever is nearby. Nio, take these people to the eateries.”
“Yes, ma’am!”
Upon Curly Kale’s words, Nio left the room with the men. They now looked over their shoulder at the succubus’s buttocks, but soon they would learn that being the “food” on a daily basis was much harder work than they had thought. But there was no doubt that they would be happy for a while.
“I am truly grateful, Prince Nazar, for gathering these twenty men as “food” at such short notice.”
“No, I’m sorry it was so few. When I return home, I will put full support on the agenda. I hope you don’t expect too much because it won’t be easy there. “
“I cannot thank you enough for just that feeling.”
“…Haha, it’s a funny feeling to have a succubus speak to me so formally.”
“Succubi only treat people so formally whom they truly respect.”
“It’s an honor.” Nazar chuckled softly and said as if he suddenly remembered something. “But there’s someone else whom I would like you to be even more grateful to than me.”
“And who would that be?”
“I can’t tell you their name… but let’s just say he is a proud man.”
“Oh.” Curly Kale understood what Nazar was trying to say and broke the synthesis. “Yes, of course. My succubi will assist him with all their might if he so desires.”
Curly Kale remembered the green Orc who was in the country just a few days ago. She was certain that there has never been, nor will there ever be, an orc who has done so much for the succubi. Orcs were by nature a dirty and greedy race. But a single proud warrior could greatly increase their value as a race.
“Even if it puts the succubi in danger…”
The succubus sanctuary was destroyed. But the words of the succubi of old were not lost. The history was not lost. The pride would not be lost. Thus, the name of the queen who rewarded the unparalleled hero would be engraved along with the stigma of the queen who allowed the sanctuary to be destroyed.
“Succubi always repay favors.” Curly Kale laughed enchantingly.
