I Don’t Want To Court Death!

Chapter 20: In The Succubus’ Cave



“Hehehehe.” Once she arrived at the peak of the mountain, the succubus placed Yang Yang down onto a clean, white bed. She climbed on top of him and placed her hands on his head. She took in a breath and then exhaled. Life force flowed into her body for every breath she took. 

 

“Yes. This is definitely the life force of Life Magic magus. It’s so rich and potent. He must also have a high ranking grimoire. Rank 5? Perhaps Rank 6? Whatever it is, I’ll drain him to bring me back to ninth-step Wisdom King level and maybe even bring me closer to the tenth-step. Actually, I might even breakthrough to the tenth-step!” She looked at his face. “What a shame that he’s so handsome. Well, I’ll have my fun in his dreams. Lustful Demon Magic: Boundless Pleasure!” 

 

Her body quivered before slumping on top of him; her breast covering his face. Her hands glowed with a pink light that penetrated into his head with insidious intention. However, as the succubus fell unconscious, an angelic magic-aspect appeared beside her with a khakkhura in hand. 

 

“Great God!” The magic-aspect said. “I thought they said all of the demon leaders were killed, yet, a Wisdom King demon general was snooping around here all along. Hopefully, she stays in that dream for a while before I drain her. This ain’t my first rodeo with a succubus.” 

 

After he was knocked out, Yang Yang entered his sea of consciousness and waited for the succubus to enter it as well. Never would she have thought that someone, especially a Virtual Aspect magi, would have such immense control over their soul and sea of consciousness. 

 

She had thought that she could use her demonic magic to drain away his life force, but now, she was ultimately stuck. Yang Yang definitely could not have taken her on while in the physical world, but in his sea of consciousness, the succubus was like a butterfly in spiderweb. 

 

“Hm. She’s quite the babe.” Multiple Life Drain spell circles appeared and took away the stolen life force and the succubus’ death force. A Blessed Life spell circle appeared and purified the death force. “What a shame. However, I wonder how she escaped from the House of Wu?” 

 

The magic-Aspect heard noises outside the cave and hid itself in the darkness. However, it inched closer to the entrance to listen in. 

 

“I heard the male human Lady Dark-Lamp captured is a Life Magic magus.” 

 

“Seriously? No wonder why he smelled so good. Damn, I would love to take a bite of him.” 

 

“You’ll just die, dumbass.” 

 

“Yeah, I know. Still, Life Magic magi are a delicacy. I’m sure if we take it, we’ll become Wisdom Kings! Screw that old hag, it’s her fault that we’re in this mess. They didn’t bother to send reinforcement once they found out that we failed our secret mission. We’ll kill her in her sleep, eat the magus, become demon generals ourselves, and leave this slaughterhouse!” 

 

“Damn, you’re right! Cover me, I’ll unravel this defensive spell formation.” One of the demons pressed its hands on the spell formation that covered the cave’s entrance. Dark magic and ominous spell circles appeared. A sharp, cracking sound appeared on the cave’s spell formation like broken glass, yet it wasn’t destroyed. 

 

“Crap!” The magic-aspect backed away further into the cave. “What the hell am I suppose to do now? My main body is sealing that succubus, and my magic-aspect can’t beat those guys yet. The Flame of Purity isn’t enough to kill them. God of Life, send me a sign!” 

 

While the magic-aspect prayed, he didn’t notice a smoke trail outside the cave. Within the distance, the faint sounds of explosion could be heard. 

 

“Timing. I need to time this right.”  

 

The magic-aspect returned to the main body. Within the dream, Yang Yang was distracting the succubus while coming up with a strategy. They laid on a grand bed in an imperial palace, while beautiful, young maids laid on other areas of the bed. 

 

The succubus made a twirling motion with her finger on his chest. "Your highness, you were so rigorous. I can barely move right now." 

 

"Don't you have enough energy to move your mouth? I think you need to use it for something else that's useful." 

 

"Oh, you royal scoundrel." The succubus leaned in close and kissed him. Yang Yang returned the kiss. In the real world, the spell formation was mostly torn down. "Now!" 

 

As she was kissing him, the succubus felt a intense, scorching heat blasting into her mouth like molten gold pouring down her throat. 

 

"AHHHHHHH!!!" The succubus backed away and rolled out of the bed. Her face smacked onto the floor. She looked up with confused eyes, but only saw a golden world. The imperial palace, the maids, and the bed were no longer there. Even Yang Yang in princely garment was no longer present. 

 

Suddenly a green light blazed her eyes, making her screech even louder. The succubus softly opened her eyes and saw the silhouette of a twelve-winged, white-robed angel. Although she could not see the angel's appearance, it left her with feelings of immeasurable fear and anxiety. It was as though something in her blood, in her bones, and deep in her soul that told her the bane of her existence had arrived. 

 

The angel pointed a her. A flood of misery and despair suffocated her. The temperature in the surrounding seemed to have increased. She wanted to scream, yet her mouth did not function in this golden world. The angel spoke in the most holiest and powerful of voices. "Let your dark blood be withered and let your evil soul be purified. Return from wench you came and repent your sins. Begone, she-devil!" 

 

The golden world collapsed into a single point and turned into a tiny, golden spark.

 

Outside the cave, the two demons were still unraveling the spell formation. Suddenly, it collapsed. The two demons stared at each other and grinned. They swiftly entered and saw their leader on top of a male human. 

 

In the fraction of a second, they appeared beside the bed. They bared their fangs and claws, ready to send it down and kill their leader. Yet, it was at this moment that the succubus opened her eyes and let out a terrible, bloodcurdling scream. Magical power burst like a poked water balloon and the mountain top completely exploded!
