Chapter 225: The Two Faces of the Succubus

If that’s truly the case… No, I should say, this hypothesis might be the most plausible under the current circumstances.

To force the three great rulers, said to have reached the realm of divinity, to join forces for something, the only remaining substantial push could only come from the “World.”

The decay of the Aibus world seems to stem from a disaster akin to a nuclear war long ago, leading to a collapse of the world’s structure, but what about the reasons for the demonic realm’s decline? Overbreeding, exhausting the world’s limits… something like that?

Interesting…

It seems necessary to delve deeper into these invaders from another world.

Resolving this in her mind, Miss White Fox led the three into a secluded alley, confirming there was no one around before reaching out to gently ruffle the hair of the powder-pink-haired loli.

“Eudora, how’s your grasp on that property conversion and energy absorption meditation coming along?”

Dressed in a carefully selected Lolita dress by Priestess, looking like a doll, the little loli tilted her head slightly and poked at her pouting lips with her finger as she pondered seriously.

“Um… Isn’t Little Fox Sister asking a bit too casually? How to say, since I started meditating a while back, it seems I can see two little orbs, one black and one gold, spinning before my eyes. I think I can keep them like that or merge them into a single, larger gold or black orb, but if I do that…”

“It would reveal your true form, right?”

The little loli blinked her pure, subtly charming lavender eyes in surprise, seemingly baffled by how Little Fox Sister knew such a situation, especially since she hadn’t mentioned similar information before.

Sighing helplessly, Vilyric chose not to explain or tell Eudora that she had been quietly monitoring her condition after she had consumed a small amount of diluted divine blood. Just now, she had also checked Eudora’s status once again with [Information Detection].

Miss White Fox was more aware of the little one’s current theoretical situation than the little one herself.

“Alright, show me the black orb first.”

“Um… Since Little Fox Sister said so…”

Obediently nodding, Eudora closed her eyes and puffed out her cheeks, as if striving to brew something for a moment…

“Poof!”

A pair of delicate, tiny black demon wings burst out through the specially designed gaps in her dress, awkwardly flapping in the air for a few moments before quickly stabilizing and calming down.

Then, a pair of slender, elegant horns quickly sprouted from the depths of Eudora’s pink hair, pointing towards the sky.

The rich purple aura in her pale, clear eyes gradually intensified, while the smooth, slender, heart-shaped tail sharply rose at its tip and lazily swayed behind her.

She might only be a childish little loli, flat as a board in front, with no significant changes in appearance, but she instantly felt much more mature and alluring than before, exuding a certain inexplicable seduction.

Especially paired with the blue-black custom dress inspired by a certain prince, full of Gothic Lolita style, and the subtly exposed white collarbone, glowing smoothly like tender bamboo shoots, along with her elegantly adorned legs wrapped in long socks and dainty little boots, it was simply breathtaking.

Such a transformation in temperament and racial traits would likely make it hard for even Eudora’s acquaintances to recognize this cute, porcelain-doll-like loli succubus as the plain ordinary human girl from a corner of the Western Capital.

“… Eudora?”

Hearing someone beside her call out with surprise and a touch of shyness, the little loli that had just completed her transformation tilted her head and blinked her deep purple eyes at the speaker.

“Sister Tilysha, is something wrong?”

Her voice was just as honest and unassuming as usual, causing the tension on the blue-haired girl’s face to gradually dissipate, and she let out a sigh of relief.

“Wow, thank goodness it’s still the original Eudora; you scared me. Your transformation is just too drastic! The last time you revealed your true form, it didn’t feel like such a different person…”

“Um… Even if you say that, Eudora doesn’t really understand…”

“Maybe it’s related to that ‘potion’ you took last time, but we need to observe further to know the specifics.”

After all, that was an unprecedented situation, and nobody knew what strange changes had occurred within Eudora, but at least the outcome should be good.

“Eudora, do you still feel hungry now?”

The little loli shook her head.

“I occasionally have some cravings, but as long as I meditate for a while, that feeling completely disappears.”

“Well… that’s good. You need to keep practicing meditation. By the way, while we have the chance, can you turn that black orb into gold and show us?”

Saying this, Miss White Fox lightly raised her hand and set up a layer of transparent, invisible barrier in the alley, as it was likely some form approaching Holy Light, which would surely be sensitive in this city dominated by demons.

“Okay ~”

Nodding again, the little loli closed her deep purple eyes in succubus form and began to brew a change.

Thus, the aura belonging to the “Demon” began to fade.

The familiar golden light that had been present since her childhood blossomed forth.

On the black, enchanting wings, white feathers gradually sprouted, covering and enveloping them, transforming into smooth, soft white wings. The succubus’s horns and long tail lost their black, taking on a magnificent, golden sheen, while her pink hair, though unchanged, became as transparent as flawless crystal like some awakened angelic bloodline.

The holy and noble aura of light enveloped the little loli, but instead of appearing imposing, it emanated a pure beauty that naturally made one want to approach.

“Wow…”

A vague exclamation came from the blue-haired girl beside her. While Vilyric herself was also somewhat surprised by Eudora’s current appearance, it was clear that whether in terms of form or that ‘seductive’ aura, they proved that her race had not changed.

The little loli opened her eyes, now infused with a faint golden sheen, glanced down at herself, and fidgeted somewhat awkwardly with her hands.

“Is it very strange…? But after Eudora turned that orb into gold, this is how it looked…”

Ruffling the little one’s hair again, Miss White Fox sincerely praised her.

“Not strange at all; it’s very cute.”

That was the truth.

Rather, with Eudora’s pure and kind personality, this… form of Holy Light emphasized her own temperament even more. Combined with the meticulously tailored, flawless Lolita dress made from exquisite materials, the subtly revealed collarbone, and the smoothly delicate legs exposed like tender bamboo shoots, along with long socks and dainty boots wrapping around her exquisite little feet, it could be described as simply heavenly.

This was what they called “pure temptation,” perhaps?

The little Dragon Daughter, who had been observing the succubus loli with a peculiar gaze, finally couldn’t help but speak up.

“You’re not telling me you planned for Eudora to use her true form all along and specially tailored this outfit for her, are you?”

Miss Vilyric immediately struck a pose with her hands on her hips, feeling triumphant.

“Hmph ~ That’s right! How’s that? Our standards are pretty good, right? Doesn’t it suit her current look accordingly?”

“Tsk…”

“Hey, did you just click your tongue? If you have any complaints, feel free to voice them. I would graciously listen and consider them.”

“Nope, you heard wrong.”

“There clearly was!”

“No, there wasn’t.”

In any case, after a series of strange banter, Eudora transformed back into her equally charming yet differently styled “Demon” form, and the four girls exited the alleyway, returning to the streets.

The situation had evidently changed.

Earlier, Vilyric and her group only attracted the casual glances of passersby and demons because of their relatively outstanding looks and outfits like Miss White Fox’s. It was just an ordinary level of attention, quickly brushed aside.

But with the sudden appearance of a little succubus among them, even if it was obvious that she was just an underage cub, it immediately brought a drastically different circumstance to the girls.

The flow of people around began to polarize.

Either disgusted but unwilling to speak up, they saw Eudora’s form and hastily stepped aside, even intentionally avoiding eye contact with her as they hurried away, or they actively cast their gazes, whether with goodwill, respect, or even eyes filled with fervent admiration.

Even those patrolling Demon Guardians on the streets would stop as they passed by the four girls, or rather—Eudora—striking their chest plates with the hilts of their weapons as a gesture of respect and courtesy.

As expected.

Noticing this, Miss White Fox pondered silently.

Although the succubus race had a terrible reputation in the Holy Empire and some areas of the current world, or rather, to put it bluntly, they were infamous, in the world of demons, they were directly subservient to the four great rulers, being one of the highest-ranking demons.

In terms of ranking within the Holy Empire and the Church of the Goddess, even if they didn’t reach the divine standard, they at least stood at the level of the Six-Winged Holy Emblem.

The City of Saint Sanos had been occupied by demons for several months, and naturally, the environment had grown increasingly similar to the demonic realm as demons continued to infiltrate and colonize.

Thus, while revealing her true form would lead to being hunted down in the Holy Empire, Eudora, hidden cautiously, had become a symbol of status and identity here, serving as the best cover and protection for the Priestess and her group.
