The Hero Became a Succubus, and the Only Way to Level is to… What?! Chapter 541 – Reprieve

First thing early the next morning, Kanae was startled awake by idina knocking on the bedchamber door. Now she, Alicia, and Hilde were standing by as Petyr choked the life out of Claudia. Lifted up by the neck, the forr Mistress of Pain's legs dangled beneath her. The otherwise crimson complexion slowly turned blue. An expression of sheer ecstasy showed on her face.

"Alright, what did Claudia do to piss you off this ti?" Kanae sighed.

"The cunt barged into my room to tell we're matched against each other. As if I don't know that already! Archbishop Patrice already inford . I figured I'll kill her now and save the trouble later," Petyr growled.

"Any input?" She turned to Claudia's sisters.

"We've repeatedly told her not to pester the high elf. Claudia refuses to listen. At this point, it's better if our sister learns the consequences of her own actions," Hilde explained.

"Guh… Getting choked out… while my sisters ignore … I couldn't ask for a… better start to the day…" Claudia's eyes to the back of her head as she trembled and visibly neared climax.

Petyr flashed with disgust. She threw Claudia into the west wing, where the succubus crashed with a heavy thud. It was hard to imagine her ever standing a chance against the high elf paladin, but Kanae had been surprised before.

"I was hoping to speak with the Ironspear girl," Petyr said.

"Gold? If I rember right, she and her cousin Andora went out together. Haven't seen them since. I can ask Arenade. She should know where they are," Kanae explained.

"Very well. I'll accompany you" the high elf insisted.

Kanae recalled where Arenade was right now and realized that might not be a great idea.

"Brighton's a little far, and your pegasus is still in Ehmvier, right? Just stay here and relax. I'll find Wendy Ironspear and send here," Kanae offered.

"Tch." Petyr eyed the west wing where Claudia was just now crawling out of. "I'll be in my room. Oh, and Kanae." She glanced over her shoulder. "Vesh and Motta started looking last night. They found several more people around the city under the effects of Charm."

Kanae nodded in acknowledgent before Petyr walked off. Alicia and Hilde helped Claudia to her feet.

"I'll have idina look after Dawn. My sisters and I will patrol the skies for the morning. Our presence should be more than enough to deter any cultist succubus from acting up," Alicia said.

"Thanks." Kanae waved to the succubus sisters and took flight from Athyst Hall for Brighton.

She stopped by a potion shop along the way to pick up a couple draughts, contraceptives, and sex-enhancers which made their way from Rosaline's atelier in Ehmvier. Of course, they were much more expensive here given the limited stock. A quick trip to Brighton's market strip, too, purchasing so food for the likely hungry degenerates.

"Arenade, I'm coming in!" Kanae announced before entering.

A musty wave of air blew past upon opening the door. In the living room, Arenade was on her knees in front of three goblins. She was enthusiastically sucking one dick while jerking off the other two. The self-proclaid divine high elf was covered in goblin cum, her breasts especially drenched with it.

"Is that food? Perfect timing. I'm starving!" a goblin said.

"Hah… hah… Cum in my mouth! The rest of you, squirt all over my face. Defile !" Arenade pleaded, and the trio did exactly that.

Strings of cum landed on the high elf's face. Lips still wrapped tightly around a cock, Arenade swallowed every drop. The goblins rubbed their cocks on her face, spreading their thick cum into a thin layer. When they finished, the three pulled away to start digging into the roast ham Kanae had brought for them.

"Mmm. Look at you. You're so hot drenched in cum. I bet you ca straight ho after the celebrations last night just to get fucked by goblins." Kanae cupped Arenade's face and grinned.

"Clean up already!" Arenade brushed her hands off.

Kanae casted Prestidigitation five tis in order to fully remove the cum stains. When Squeaky clean, Arenade plopped down into the sofa and looked absolutely glowing. Probably from the non-stop sex she had been having with the six goblins.

Brank, the youngest goblin of the bunch, descended from the stairs yawning into his hand. He saw the others eating, but ignored them and went straight to Arenade.

"Morning sex, now!" Brank demanded, his cock erect and throbbing.

"Yeah, yeah. Go wild." Arenade readily opened her legs to let him fuck her. "What are you doing here anyway? Shouldn't you be preparing for your match in a few days?"

Kanae shook her head. "There's nothing to prepare for. I already know Will's a Paladin. Seen how he fights. Besides, I'm not desperate for glory like the others are. To begin with, I don't even like fighting. They sohow co looking for ! Ugh. Just last night— don't tell anyone— Archbishop Patrice told she orchestrated the prisoner exchange to lure the cult into acting. She wants to start a war to move my Deification along!"

"Mmm… Yeah, fuck my high elf pussy with your rancid goblin cock… Ahhh…" The priest had fallen into a state of bliss as Brank's thrusts picked up speed.

"You're not even listening!"

"I-I'm listening! The prisoners, cult, and Deification… right? Just so you know, we absolutely— oohh… mmm… shouldn't… go to war. The Commonwealth is wealthy because of our abundant resources and exports, but we also put a lot of money into the Imperial Span, shipped tons of subsidized foodstuff to keep Savir from starving, and rapid developnt across like thirty towns across the countryside. A war is going to strain us financially," she explained in the throes of pleasure.

Brank sucked on both of Arenade's stiff nipples, causing her to yelp in surprise which cut the rest of her rant short.

"Huh. You gave this a lot more thought than I expected. You're right though. I don't think we can or should afford another war if it can be helped. At least not until the famine situation in Savir is settled. The archbishop won't like this though." Kanae clicked her tongue.

"Well, the Commonwealth belongs to us. Not her to decide where to move like a piece on a chess board," Arenade reminded her.

"Thanks. That gave a lot to think about. Anyway, I ca to ask if you know where Andora and Wendy are. Petyr wants to talk to Gold-in-training," she said.

"They checked in with last night, actually! Asked about where to look for enchanters, so I told them to check Sparked Hands here in Brighton. You might run into them if you go now!"

Sparked Hands wasn't very far. Kanae had gone with Arenade and Edina a couple of tis over the years to get magical items appraised.

"Before I leave… Brank." Kanae planted a hand on his shoulder and produced the Cock Ring of Hardening. "Put this on your dick. I guarantee you'll drive her crazy. Just make sure you don't lose this and it cos back to later."

"Did you just give him what I think you just did?!" Arenade gasped.

As soon as Brank slipped the enchanted cock ring on, his mber grew in size and girth to a mighty club of a genital.

"With this, I'll get the queen pregnant with my babies for sure!" Brank plunged his empowered cock back into Arenade, knocking the wind from her sails.

"Ooooohhhh! It's too big! Stop! I'm cumming already!" Arenade shrieked.

Kanae clapped to another job well done at making Arenade fall deeper. She left them to their orgy and headed to Sparked Hands a few blocks down. The store sign was a pair of hands cupped together, holding a glowing spark that must be powered by a mana crystal. She entered to the sound of a bell chiming.

What few custors lingered about had their faces buried in giant levitating tos, occasionally flipping the pages. All the way to the front and behind the counter, a large sign listed enchantnts, the gold cost, and reagents required. Like a coffee shop listing their nu. Kanae caught sight of Andora and Wendy doing the sa as other patrons in the store. The latter was deep in thought.

"Hmmm. I can't heal, so it would be really nice if I enchant my weapon with lifesteal magic, don't you think?" Wendy asked.

"Cousin, you don't have that sort of money. Just buy a cheap fiery enchantnt. The heat generated from your weapon is going to make it unbearable for anyone wearing armor," Andora explained.

"Pick whatever you want, and I'll pay for you," Kanae said, making herself known.

"Your Majesty!" Both of them bowed.

Kanae joined them at the levitating to. It was like the nu board but with more detailed information regarding enchantnts. Each page was dedicated to a specific one, as well as containing nurous positive testimonies and reviews from past custors.

"You're very generous, but I couldn't possibly have you pay for !" Wendy exclaid.

"Why not? As a Light of Ehmvier, you're a vassal to Arenade. Why wouldn't I want you to have the best possible equipnt and enchantnts? Also, Petyr's looking for you," Kanae said.

"The forr Knight of Gold is?" She cocked her head.

Wendy ultimately accepted Kanae's generosity and went with a Lifesteal Enchantnt on her twinblade. The blades of her weapon glowed with the red hue of a vampiric aura. That was surely going to serve her well in the tournant.

With their errand completed, they followed Kanae in returning to Aidenhall and ascending the corridors to Athyst Hall. The sisters were gone when they arrived, and the hall quieter than usual.

"I brought Wendy for you!" Kanae rapped her knuckles on the door to Petyr's room.

The door swung open. Petyr was dressed in her gilded dragonscale armor minted with royal purple accents. The warhamr rested against one pauldron. All three of them were taken aback.

"Wendy Ironspear, reporting for duty!" Wendy straightened her back.

"We're going to go train. Andora, you may join us if you wish," Petyr said.

"Eh?" The Knight of Gold-in-training gawked. "So soon before the tournant? But why?"

"I think I'll pass." Andora stepped aside as Petyr erged from her room.

"Because we are high elven, and we will not be made a mockery of. Runald Aespir's forfeit was unfortunate and not his fault, but whispers abound of our alleged cowardice. I will train you, and you will win. At least until you face . Now co! We're short on ti!" She marched past them.

Wendy chased after, seemingly more emboldened by Petyr's pep talk.

"Well, I don't envy Wendy. But I have to admit, hearing the Ortesian Empire's greatest knight talk does fill with pride even though I'm not Ortesian myself." Andora rolled her shoulders, trying to suppress a smile.

"Sorry for taking your cousin away. I know you haven't seen her in a while," Kanae said.

"No worries, Your Majesty. Her, Vincient, and I are bound by blood. We are never apart." She smiled, beating a fist to her chest.

A twinge of emotion nipped at Kanae's heavy heart. Revah and Pan had left already like they promised. She felt their distance growing, heading sowhere south to Savir. Eventually, Broodmother wouldn't sense them anymore. Too far to detect.

"You seem somber. Is everything alright?" Andora asked.

"Two of my daughters are flying towards Savir. To say I'm worried is an understatent. I can't even think about the tournant." Kanae sighed.

"For what my two gold coins are worth, I believe they will be just fine. After all, you've ended the unrest in Savir. The people are grateful to the succubus queen, and thus likely be more welcoming of them," she explained.

Too bad Andora didn't know what happened in Avanesse. There was truth to her words though. Savir's three jewels had entered the fold. If Revah and Pan were ever in trouble, they could na drop their identities.

"I do feel better. Thanks, Andora." Kanae grinned.

"Hehe." Andora puffed out her chest. "Now that it's just the two of us, show to this Illuminant Repository that I've heard about. I'm interested in availing myself to its treasure trove of knowledge!"

"Sothing tells you might get along with Archbishop Patrice and Elizabeth Bedlam." She rolled her eyes.
