Ultimately, it's such a simple thing: a lack of security regarding the existence of friends.
So the solution is very simple...!
I'm not very good at talking.
"But no matter what happens, I won't despise you," Annie said calmly.
Just go along with what the other person says and give them a sense of security!
This trick usually works well on Milu!
"Waaaah—!! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!!" Ruby buried her face in her hands and cried loudly.
An Yi nodded: "Alright, let's replenish our magic first. Call me when the doll is finished."
At this point, all you need to do is give the other person some personal space and let them calm down!
"Yes! I'll finish it as soon as possible! Waaaaah—!" Ruby cried.
"Good luck, I'm leaving now." An Yi stood up, turned around and left.
Ruby cried for a while.
"No! I need to replenish my magic power quickly!"
Hurry up and finish the task Mr. Carl gave me!
She looked back and saw that the food that had been laid out all over the floor had disappeared.
"Where's my food?! Waaaaaah!!!"
Ruby, still holding the spoon, cried even louder.
……
It was also the third day.
Rose has been in the Succubus King's territory for three days.
In the three days, she also came to understand some things.
That is, in this seemingly small city, all the succubi are servants who serve the Succubus King.
They wore the same clothes and had the same hairstyles. Unlike ordinary succubi, they didn't have a wide range of emotions. Each succubus had a cold face all day long, like a sword-wielding hero.
The city was deathly still; the succubi, though they talked and moved about, remained expressionless.
To be honest, even if other succubi came and wanted to stay here long, they would probably choose to leave because of the atmosphere in the city. *Hiss*
Because life here is utterly joyless.
Rose also asked why they behaved this way.
The local succubi did not hide it. Death
A succubus told her that this had been the case for generations of succubi here.
Rather than saying they have no emotions, it's more accurate to say their work doesn't require emotions.
They only need to complete their tasks day after day, and their lives are already very fulfilling.
Furthermore, because they have been in this territory since birth, where magic doesn't need to be replenished, they have no need to eat.
In addition, she obtained the information she needed and valued most...
Information regarding the second strongest member of the demon race, the "Little Demon King".
Chapter 126 The Little Demon King Appears
The outside world knows virtually nothing about the "Little Demon King," except that she is female and a friend of the "Succubus Queen."
Therefore, it is quite natural and reasonable for the Little Demon King to appear in the territory of the Succubus King.
For two thousand years, countless demons have come here seeking fame, but all have returned empty-handed.
They had no idea what had happened; all they remembered was stepping into the Succubus King's city and then being outside his territory the next second.
Moreover, it is not just the boundary of the Succubus King; it may even appear in a more distant demon city.
Some demons could appear in an unknown city in the blink of an eye, traversing most of the demon realm.
However, witnesses said that they all walked there from a distance on their own.
The demon race that spanned most of the demon territory was able to cross it because they could survive solely on magic power.
Most demons only reached the limit of their bodies' endurance.
When I came to my senses, I was extremely hungry and exhausted.
The demons wondered if that was the succubus king's magic.
The only ones who can enter the Succubus King's territory and will not "voluntarily" leave are the succubi.
Over the centuries, countless succubi have come here, but like Rose, they have not obtained any useful information.
After staying here for a while, I had no choice but to leave.
Of course, regardless of how they define "useful," Rose did collect some useful things. (Original text: $8)
For example... that little demon king does indeed appear in the territory of the Succubus King.
This is what Rose learned from the other succubi in the territory.
Although this is the outside world's speculation, and although the other party would naturally be in the territory of the Succubus King, having received confirmation from the Succubus King's servant is a completely different matter.
Rumors and speculations are ultimately just hearsay; without concrete information, they will forever remain unverified rumors.
However, information from the Succubus King's servants proved the truth of this rumor.
That is to say...
Rose might actually have a chance to meet that strongest being, second only to the Demon King!
Clinging to a sliver of hope, she decided to stay there for a while.
According to the succubi within the territory, the way to meet the Little Demon King is not by entering the palace or by having someone introduce you.
There is only one thing that can be done—
do nothing.
You can see the Little Demon King without doing anything, it's true.
Because wanting to see that person doesn't depend on how much effort you put in or how many methods you use, but simply on hoping that the other person wants to see you.
She can make anyone see her if she wants to.
If you don't want to, then doing anything will be in vain.
So Rose could only wander around the territory every day, asking around for information about the Little Demon King and the Succubus King.
If you ask the servants, they will definitely give you some answers.
However, most of the answers were similar, as if they had read through a script beforehand, and no one would give a very detailed answer.
Rose had nothing else to do each day, so she could only chat with the servants, which was her only form of entertainment.
I guess the servants thought the same thing, which is why they were willing to talk to Rose.
Thanks to the memory she had honed while running her business, she memorized the faces of all the succubi in parts of the town.
Every day she would talk to different succubi.
Logically, the correct approach would be to cultivate a good relationship with one of the succubi and then extract some useful information from her.
However, she could only stay here for a short time, and she made her purpose clear as soon as she arrived, so the succubi were wary of her and couldn't use the method mentioned above.
That makes sense; how could such an important person possibly meet with just because they want to?
Before leaving, Rose had already decided on her target for gathering intelligence.
Since the succubi near my residence have memorized my information, I only need to find a succubus I've never interacted with before.
As she walked down the street, Rose's eyes secretly scanned every succubus she passed.
Rose wouldn't strike up a conversation with someone who was working, because the other person wouldn't pay any attention to her.
To determine if they are working, look at whether they are holding anything in their hands.
If you're moving something, like carrying clothes or food, then you're working.
Their work pattern is strange. The succubi on the east side of the city have to run to the west side of the castle, collect the clothes delivered from the castle, and then return to the east side of the city to start washing them.
After washing, it has to be sent back all the way.
It's inefficient and a waste of time.
However, it is precisely because of the low efficiency and the long time required that the succubi cannot complete their work in a short period of time, which makes them feel "fulfilled".
They themselves were unaware that anything was wrong.
According to them, they have been using this work pattern since they can remember, and then they have just continued to do so as a matter of course.
As for speed and efficiency, they hadn't thought about it at all.
Rather, it's more accurate to say that the concept simply doesn't exist in their minds.
Perhaps those who had this thought in mind have already "voluntarily" left this place?
This city is like a giant anthill; worker ants with too many ideas are unnecessary.
Worker ants are just worker ants; they simply rely on their instincts to do their jobs.
"Hello, may I bother you for a moment?" Rose had been walking for almost half an hour before finally finding a succubus who seemed to have some free time.
Their work isn't endless; they have certain rest periods.
After all, the succubus isn't a real machine.
Upon hearing Rose's voice, the succubus turned around and looked at her expressionlessly: "Hmm, is there something you need?"
I remember you were a succubus from human territory.
“Yes.” Rose nodded with a smile.
She had actually heard this phrase more than once. Ever since she revealed her origins on the first day, it was as if every succubus knew the news immediately.
"If it's about the Queen and that man, I have nothing to say," the succubus said calmly.
