“???”
Shien Buztout’s mind was filled with question marks.
Admire?
Admire who?
Then, a terrifying thought crossed his mind.
“…Don’t tell me you think I want to see the Succubus because I like her?” Shien asked, his lips twitching, looking at Sharion and Shajina.
Sharion and Shajina, however, looked at him as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
“Please don’t be embarrassed, Master,” Shajina said, “We’ve heard of such things many times before.”
“Indeed,” Sharion sighed, “The Succubus’s beauty is world-renowned. Everyone who sees her is captivated. We’ve also heard of powerful figures from the Human Realm being enthralled by her beauty, coming to the Demon Realm at all costs, just to see her again.”
Hearing this, Shien was speechless.
So that’s why Shajina looked at him so strangely when he said he wanted to see the Succubus. She thought he was infatuated with her.
“I’m not, I don’t, don’t spout nonsense,” Shien denied vehemently.
Unfortunately, they didn’t believe him.
“We’re from the Succubus Territory. We know how captivating the Succubus is. There’s no need to be ashamed, Master.”
Shajina said understandingly.
“However, Master, I still want to advise you, don’t be too obsessed,” Sharion said, seemingly trying to console him, “You’re a Legendary-level expert, so it’s possible for you to meet the Succubus, but she’s not someone you can possess. You can see her, but don’t have any improper thoughts, or you’ll lose your life.”
This father and daughter duo tried to persuade Shien with good intentions.
However, Shien, instead of feeling grateful, wanted to bang his head against a wall.
“I really don’t like the Succubus,” Shien could only say, “My wife is also incredibly beautiful. Even if the Succubus is more beautiful, I’m not interested.”
These words were met with pitying gazes from Sharion and Shajina, as if they were looking at a pathetic, heartbroken person desperately trying to maintain his fragile self-esteem.
Shien didn’t want to talk anymore, just flip the table.
So, he stopped explaining and said listlessly,
“Forget it, just give me directions to the Succubus Domain, and I’ll go see the Succubus myself.”
He wanted to see if this Succubus, praised to the heavens and described by Sharion and Shajina as the most beautiful being in all of Omnipotence, was truly that captivating.
“I don’t believe she can be more beautiful than my Lucy,” Shien muttered, feeling indignant.
Honestly, Shien didn’t believe anyone could surpass Lucy’s beauty.
Whether in his previous or current life, before or after reincarnation, Lucy was the most beautiful person he had ever seen.
Perhaps this was partly due to his love for her, but even objectively, although Nien and Sophie, the Elven Queen, could match Lucy’s beauty, surpassing her was impossible.
To be as beautiful as Lucy was already a miracle.
Therefore, Shien couldn’t imagine anyone more beautiful than her in this world.
Even if, by some chance, the Succubus was indeed more beautiful than Lucy, Shien didn’t believe he would be captivated.
Who was he?
He was a man with hundreds of gigabytes of secret documents stored in his mind!
No matter how beautiful the Succubus was, could she compare to that?
If she didn’t take off her clothes, why should he even bother looking?
When Shien joined Vivian’s team, he wasn’t particularly interested in the all-female beauty squad, and even after meeting Lucy, he treated her normally, not going easy on her just because she was beautiful.
Because Shien knew very well that a beautiful goddess, if not his, wasn’t worth pursuing.
Simps were pathetic, and having experienced the information bombardment of the internet, Shien was more open-minded than anyone.
Sharion and Shajina naturally couldn’t understand his thoughts.
They simply thought that Shien didn’t want to continue this topic.
Although they were a little disappointed, wanting to chat with Shien more and build a relationship with this Legendary-level expert, hoping to gain some benefits for the Shajin Clan, since Shien had already said so, they wouldn’t be so insensitive.
“Father,” Shajina said, looking at Sharion, “I remember that in two days, it will be the day our clan transports a new batch of monsters to the Succubus Domain for sale, right?”
“Indeed,” Sharion nodded, “I originally planned to cancel it and keep those monsters in the clan to defend against the Hoof Clan, but since Master has annihilated their vanguard, I believe they won’t dare to come again.”
Saying that, Sharion had an idea.
“Let’s move the transport of the new batch of monsters to tomorrow,” Sharion said to Shajina, “Shajina, you’ll be in charge of the transport tomorrow, going to the Succubus Domain and guiding Master.”
“Yes,” Shajina agreed without hesitation, then turned to Shien and said with a smile, “What do you think, Master?”
“Alright,” Shien also agreed, “I’ll go to the Succubus Domain with you tomorrow.”
Although he could travel faster alone, being unfamiliar with the Demon Realm, Shien didn’t want to risk getting lost.
Since someone was willing to guide him, he naturally wouldn’t refuse.
Of course, whether he could meet the Succubus on this trip was still unknown.
