We arrived in another duke’s territory, about two hundred kilometers away from what used to be Duke Welter’s domain.Why do I call it “what used to be”? Because that territory no longer existed after Agnes destroyed it.Our arrival immediately caused a stir in the crowd, especially among the male demons, who were instantly captivated by the beauty of Agnes and Shizuku.Well, it couldn’t be helped. They really were beautiful, so it would actually be strange if they didn’t become the center of attention whenever they appeared in public.…..I sat near the window, staring outside with a complicated expression.The street in front of the inn was extremely busy, packed with demons.Some were just passing by, others were selling food, and some were even selling slaves of various races such as humans, elves, dwarves, and even demons.“So this is the true face of the Eastern Continent,” I muttered softly, my eyes fixed on a slave trader enthusiastically advertising his merchandise.“I don’t k

My vision kept spinning until I finally felt solid ground beneath my feet.“Prince Krai?”“Huh? That voice—.”I turned around in surprise and saw a group of soldiers standing on alert in front of a noble family I knew very well.My gaze fell on a tall, beautiful woman with black hair, golden eyes, and skin whiter and smoother than snow.“Evelyn?”“Prince Krai!”Evelyn ran straight toward me and wrapped her arms around my body in a tight, affectionate embrace.You know what? Being hugged by a beautiful, well-curved woman like Evelyn feels really nice.But honestly, it would feel even better if the women on my left and right would stop glaring at us.“Master Krai…”Shizuku’s voice was cold and frightening.“Master…”Agnes was no different—I could even see black smoke rising from her sexy body.Even though Shizuku and Agnes were releasing such a dangerous aura that several soldiers fainted on the spot, Evelyn kept hugging me as if she felt nothing at all.To be honest, I really did have

“Ancient Red Dragon King? Succubus Queen? They sound like fictional characters,” Duke Astoria said.Evelyn’s hands trembled as she gripped the glass cup until it shattered.Crash!“Evelyn!” Duke Astoria shouted.“Krai, are they really the Ancient Red Dragon King and the Succubus Queen? You’re not joking, are you?” Evelyn asked, her voice shaking as if she were speaking to a terrifying superior.“Evelyn? You know them?”Evelyn turned around and glared at Duke Astoria.“Why are you the one asking, Father?! You should be the one who knows about the Ancient Red Dragon King and the Succubus Queen! They’re recorded in legends and ancient manuscripts. It’s said their power rivals that of high-ranking gods who govern the world.”“Huh?” The color immediately drained from Duke Astoria’s face.Thud!Several members of the duke’s family collapsed unconscious, foam forming at their mouths—not because of poison, but because the shock was simply too much.“It seems I still underestimated humans. Who

After being tinkered with by Shizuku and Agnes, Clifton and Maya had grown stronger and far more reliable than before.“With Clifton and Maya around, that king won’t be able to do whatever he wants to the duke’s family.”Duke Astoria fell silent after hearing my statement.Evelyn blinked her golden eyes repeatedly, as if trying to make sure that what she was seeing in front of her wasn’t a hallucination.“So, what now?” I asked.Evelyn went quiet at my question. She turned hesitantly, looking at her father with her beautiful golden eyes.“Father…”Duke Astoria took a deep breath and spoke in a serious tone.“This is your opportunity. Don’t let it slip away, or you’ll regret it for the rest of your life.”“…Alright. I’ll go with you.”“Good. When can you leave? I’ll adjust the departure time to match yours.”Evelyn narrowed her eyes and looked at me uncertainly.“We can come back to visit here, right?”“Of course. Whenever you want to return and see your family, I promise I’ll take you

Krai leaned against the trunk of a massive tree, holding Evelyn closely in his arms.“It’s so beautiful…” Evelyn’s eyes shimmered, captivated by the celestial display above—a starlit sky that looked as if it had been plucked from a fairy tale.A bold thought crossed Krai’s mind. He reached his hand upward, as if attempting to grasp the very stars themselves.“I think it’s possible.”“?” Evelyn tilted her head with a look of doubt, appearing utterly adorable. “What is?”“With my current strength, I could easily take one of those stars from the sky for you.”Evelyn fell silent, her chest heaving with a sharp intake of breath. “Don’t do that.”“I won't—unless you find yourself wanting a necklace made of starlight.”Evelyn remained quiet, faint beads of fragrant cold sweat forming on her forehead.“I don't want anything,” she whispered, her voice sincere and overflowing with love. “As long as I can always be with you, that is enough.”“Evelyn…”Evelyn closed her eyes and tilted her chin u
