Chapter 57 - Beast Fighting Chess between Emily and Hermione
The one who spoke was a woman lying on the ground.
Those who could appear in this room were not ordinary characters.
She was the assassin Altair, one of the commanders of the cursed legion in the dungeon.
“Alright.”
Sebastian stood up immediately.
Bayde, who was hanging onto his body, lost her grip.
With a cry of surprise, she fell to the ground.
She stood up and rubbed her buttocks, looking at Sebastian with resentment.
‘Such an unromantic man! I was still talking to him,’ Bayde thought.
Sebastian went to the wine cabinet, took out a bottle of wine and handed it to Altair.
“Sebastian, can you open it for me while you’re at it?”
Altair didn’t even raise her head, and her lazy voice sounded again.
It was as if a single movement could take her life.
“Oh.”
Sebastian understood his old friend very well. He opened the bottle and was about to hand it to her.
However, Bayde took it.
Following that, Bayde sat on Altair’s body.
She bent down slightly, and the two of them were close to each other.
Bayde smiled charmingly.
“Come, I’ll feed you.”
Altair did not refuse, and her small mouth opened slightly.
However, what was waiting for her was not wine, but Bayde’s fiery lips.
“Hmm…”
Altair could not be bothered to resist as she knew that Bayde was joking with her.
At this moment, Bayde let go of her and leaned close to her ear to let out a light breath.
“Altair, can you transfer some assassins to me as well?”
Altair nodded and a lazy voice rang out.
“Sure.”
There were quite a number of assassins in her cursed legion who were female. Moreover, as they didn’t like men, they also liked to go to the succubus legion.
Therefore, she didn’t object to her own members coming into contact with the succubus legion. Thus, they had just reached an agreement.
Outside the castle, they were still discussing.
“Following the sequence, the prisoners this time should be transformed into succubi.”
Emily took a sip of black tea and said in a flat tone.
Hermione, who was lying on a rocking chair, was also speaking in a very lazy tone.
It was obvious that Altair of the cursed legion had followed her leader’s lazy tone.
“Emily, your succubus legion is almost filling up the dungeon, and you still want to transform them? Where are we going to find so many men?”
“That’s right, I have more than 60 dragon servants under me now, and half of them have been seduced by your succubus to be tools for fun. If you continue to transform, I’m afraid there won’t be anything left for you to play.”
Thor was eating snacks while echoing Hermione.
Emily didn’t refute what Hermione and Thor said.
She hadn’t intended to create the succubus army in the first place.
She also felt that it wasn’t good to have too many succubi.
Although in the demon world, she was known as the fallen angel.
But after all, she was once the representative of holiness.
It didn’t seem appropriate to have all the succubi under her command.
“What do you think?”
Emily put down the black tea and looked at the two of them.
The main reason for the huge difference in the number of subordinates between them was that the others were too lazy.
They would go out to play at any time, as they wanted to go out to relax.
Some of the maidservants had not even returned yet.
They had initially agreed that the maidservants would take turns to convert their subordinates.
But when the others were not around, Emily had to convert them herself.
Therefore, the final result was that there were too many succubi in the castle, resulting in many other monsters in the dungeon being ‘killed’ by the succubi.
Even the weak slimes were not spared.
There were indeed enough succubi.
Although Emily also agreed with their suggestion, they still had to go through the necessary procedures.
“Since that’s the case, let’s stick to the old rules.” Emily put down the black tea in her hand and stood up.
Hermione and Thor looked at each other when they saw Emily stand up, they immediately understood what she was going to do.
“Thor and I will fight against you the demon king!!” Hermione hugged Thor as if she wanted to cooperate with her.
“Ah, okay.” Thor was stunned after being hugged by Hermione. She hugged Hermione and said with a smile, “I also want to fight against you, the demon king, with Hermione.”
Looking at the two people in front of her who were smiling and not serious at all, Emily felt a little helpless but said dotingly, “Okay, the partnership between the two of you is really good.”
As she said this, Emily stretched out her hand and grabbed from the air, and a chessboard appeared in her hand.
This was an extremely popular game on the continent, which was called beast fighting chess.
There were ten different kinds of chess pieces on it, which represented a total of ten ranks: the first to the ninth rank, and the saint rank. Each rank was made up of representative species as chess pieces.
For example, the giant dragon was a saint rank chess piece. It was the most powerful chess piece in the entire game of beast fighting chess, but it could be defeated by a human who was a first rank chess piece.
Although it sounded unreasonable, that was simply how the game was played.
The maids in the castle often used chess to resolve disputes. They were all too powerful, so the commotion would be too big and it would take too long for the outcome to be decided if they fought. Therefore, chess was the way to resolve their disputes.
However, Emily always won every time. Hermione only managed to win a few times because she got lucky.
As for Thor, she fell asleep when she saw the chessboard. Of course, she didn’t win a single time.
“Let’s start!” Hermione couldn’t wait to set up the chess pieces. She wanted to win and make Emily obey her once!
“Go, go, go!” Thor and Hermione were standing very close to each other. They looked at the chessboard with a focused expression, as if they wanted to see through the chessboard.
When the chessboard was placed on the table and the chess pieces were placed properly.
Thor’s head was already resting on Hermione’s shoulder, and she was already asleep. There was even a trace of a smile on the corner of her mouth.
Alright, so the reason why he was so close to Hermione just now was to find a comfortable pillow!
As expected of you, Thor!
Looking at Thor who was already asleep, a trace of a smile hung on the corner of Emily’s mouth.
A dragon in its infancy would always be extremely lethargic. It would eat and sleep, and only when Thor reached the growth stage would the situation improve.
With a snap of her fingers, a group of succubus walked out of the darkness. They had two goat-like horns on their heads, and a long black tail behind their buttocks. The tip of the tail was a small heart.
“Yes, Master!” The succubus leader knelt down in front of Emily and said respectfully.
The succubus’ voice had an extremely powerful charm, but no one in the room reacted. Even Thor didn’t wake up.
“Send Thor back to the room.” The expression on Emily’s face was extremely indifferent, like an ice sculpture that hadn’t melted in ten thousand years. She didn’t have the lively expression she had when facing Hermione and the others.
“Yes.” After the succubus leader finished speaking, she slowly stood up, picked Thor up and walked into the darkness.
Looking at the succubus leader leaving, Emily returned to her previous appearance and said with a smile, “Do you still want to continue, Hermione?”
Looking at the smiling Emily, Hermione gritted her teeth. “Continue!”
Hermione had always been lazy, but she was one-track minded when it came to the game of chess.
She didn’t believe that she couldn’t beat Emily!
