Queen Rhiannon's gaze was enough to tell Lux that what he was asking was something that was very hard to achieve.
Even so, he didn't back down and stated his third condition.
"After giving me your name, I will give you a set of orders that will prevent you from harming us in any way possible. As long as you can do that, Cai will release you."
The one who thought of these conditions wasn't Lux but Cai herself. After giving her chastity to Lux, she was able to communicate to him telepathically as long as they were within two thousand meters of each other.
The Half-Elf thought that these conditions were good, so he decided to use these as the foundation of the compromise that he planned to offer Queen Rhiannon.
Suddenly and without warning, Queen Rhiannon dug her teeth into Lux's neck, biting it with everything she had.
However, no matter how hard she bit his neck, her teeth couldn't dig enough to draw blood, and she even felt like she was biting against something very hard.
What she didn't know was that Lux could make his skin as hard as Dragon Scales. He already knew that Queen Rhiannon would attack him in some form, so he had already made preparations in advance.
But even if he didn't do this, the most that Queen Rhiannon could leave on his body was a kiss mark that would disappear after a few minutes.
Since that was the case, Lux allowed her to vent her frustrations until her jaws started to ache.
"Those are the only conditions we have for you," Lux stated while Queen Rhiannon was still biting his neck repeatedly like a fangless vampire. "I understand that this isn't fair, but this is the only way to ensure that you will not go back on your word."
A few minutes later, Queen Rhianon stopped biting Lux and started slapping him until her hands turned red.
When the Half-Elf deemed that Cai's body would only be hurt if this continued, he knocked her unconscious before holding his fiance's body close to him, allowing the water of the pool to recover the injuries she had inflicted on herself.
Queen Rhiannon didn't know how many hours had passed, but the next time she opened her eyes, she found herself lying on her own bed with the Half-Elf lying beside her.
"You're finally awake," Lux said. "So, how about it? Will you consider my offer?"
"Just kill me!" Queen Rhiannon shouted hatefully. "Kill me! I'd rather die than become your plaything!"
"But you don't want to die, right?" Lux replied. "You have suffered for many years in order to stand tall in the Abyssal World. Are you sure you want to throw that all away?"
Queen Rhiannon's eyes widened in shock after hearing Lux's words.
"I'm sorry."
Cai's words resonated inside Queen Rhiannon's head.
"I was desperate to find any weakness that we can use over you. Because of that, I peeked into your memories, while you are unconscious."
"…" Queen Rhiannon could only endure in silence as she bit her lip, causing it to bleed.
Lux continued to hug her and used the skill, Healing Wind, in order to heal the injury that Queen Rhiannon had inflicted on Cai's body.
While this was happening, Queen Rhiannon closed her eyes and willed herself to go to Cai's Sea of Consciousness, where the owner of the body resided.
There, she found Cai, sitting on a chair while patting the head of a baby golden slime, whom she had snuck inside her body during the battle against the Satyr.contemporary romance
Since Fei Fei was not as courageous as Eiko when it came to fighting, Cai used her connection with her Beast Companion to put her somewhere safe from harm, which was her Spiritual World.
This was also where Iris kept her Guardians whenever she was going to Elysium to fight a Boss or conquer a Dungeon.
"I'm sorry." Cai apologized for the second time after seeing the Succubus Queen's hateful glare in her direction.
"How much did you see?" Queen Rhiannon asked through gritted teeth.
"Everything," Cai replied. "I saw everything. Because of this, I can no longer see you as an enemy. After all, both of us are the same. We both have the Celestial Maiden Physique."
"We're not the same!" Queen Rhiannon shouted. "What do you know?! You have lived a very peaceful life surrounded by family and friends! I wasn't as lucky as you! The first man I loved used me as a tool in order to increase his rank! After he stepped into the Calamity Rank, he tossed me aside like a dirty rag that no longer had any value!
"For many years, I wandered the Abyss, fighting for survival every single day! I lived a hellish life, and you tell me we are the same? Screw you!"
Queen Rhiannon hatefully summoned a giant fireball and threw it at Cai. However, the High Priestess only raised his hand, and the giant Fireball disappeared without a trace.
"What you say is true," Cai replied. "It was arrogant of me to say that we are the same. Unlike you, I grew up in a loving family, protected by my tribesman. If anyone tried to harm me, my Grandfather would immediately go on a rampage and start killing people.
"You, on the other hand, had to resort to tricks and schemes to steadily raise your rank in places far away from those that will harm you. However, even that didn't last long because the one whom you had given your love and trust came back for you in order to use you as a tool for the second time."
Queen Rhiannon's body trembled as she recalled the hateful Demon, who had gone to great lengths to find her when he realized that he needed her to become a Demigod.
Fortunately, the Golem of Destruction was passing through on that day, and out of whim, saved Queen Rhiannon from a horrible fate.
Hundreds of years passed, and Queen Rhiannon also became a Calamity-Ranked Abyssal Creature. The first thing she did when she gained her rank was to hunt down her traitorous first love and kill him with her own hands.
However, his death wasn't simple.
Queen Rhiannon absorbed his essence and added it to her own, allowing her to break through and become a Demigod.
After that, she took over his territory, which was the 13th Layer of the Abyss, and became its new overlord.
Cai looked at the Succubus Queen with a pitiful gaze because she knew how much Queen Rhiannon had suffered.
She also understood the real reason why the Succubus Queen tried to corrupt her by letting her absorb Lux's Rank and recover her strength.
Queen Rhiannon had long lost her trust in men and treated them as mere tools to satisfy the cravings of her body.
She wanted Cai to not suffer the same heartbreak as she did, so she took matters into her own hands and laid out the foundations in order to convert the High Priestess into a Succubus.
Queen Rhiannon intended Cai to be like her.
Someone who would take the strength of others and add it to her own, instead of letting others absorb her strength until she became nothing but an empty shell.
In Queen Rhiannon's eyes, she was merely helping someone who had the same Body Constitution as her.
Even if the methods she used were something that the High Priestess of the Rowan Tribe couldn't accept, she believed that after a few hundred years had passed, Cai would thank her for opening her eyes to the truth.
The truth that men couldn't be trusted and that they would only use her as a tool for their own gains.
This was why the moment she saw Lux, Queen Rhiannon decided to capture him alive at all cost and let Cai personally kill him, thinking that it would make her lose her heart and embrace a new destiny.
A new destiny that would make her another powerhouse in the Abyss and become Queen Rhiannon's trusted companion for life.
