True King's Ecstasy

Chapter 343 Mastermind





Daphnia kept looking at the woman in front of her with eyes squinted, and she still couldn't believe that Lucy is from another race.

"You look nothing like the succubus we caught, you look more human than her, with the only difference being your tail and horns, but when you hide them, you look exactly like a human,"

Daphnia said as she wanted to know more about these demons because of her curiosity. Ever since she was small she have been taught that demons were bad, but looking at these innocent girls, she quickly had to remove that idea from her head.

"Now! Now, mother, we don't have time for this, you can discuss about this later, but it looks like we have a problem," Velian said which caused both Lucy and the other girls to look at him with a wary look.

"Yes! It looks like we are too late, the massacre is going to happen soon," Lucy quickly understood what he meant, but Daphnia wanted more information.

"Ugh~ what are you talking about, Veli?" She questioned to which Velian explained everything to Kyla and Daphnia.

Ellena was also there, but she looked like she was in a trance looking at Velian, so he decided to let her daydream because right now, he didn't have time to babysit.

"Prince of the Rapidclaw is missing, I just got the same message from a sister," At first neither Lucy nor Daphnia knew what he was talking about, but when they heard his next words, Daphnia automatically jumped out of her seat.

"He is an idiot! He is going to fight one of the parasitic cell users all alone, do you remember the prime minister who managed to escape? Apparently, he is one of them," Velian knew all of this because Akiyo's girlfriend, who was the sister of the prince said so.

At first, she tried to convince her brother, but seeing no option available she decided to ask for Akiyo's help. But it was too late for her.

"This prime minister had been sending him letters telling him that, he should hand over the princess, apparently, we ruined his plan of taking over the kingdom, so now he is planning to use these two siblings for something," Even Velian didn't understand what he wanted from them, but for now he had more urgent matters.

"Andriya, this prime minister and other parasitic cells, they have been rather active lately, it's almost like something is telling them to cause chaos in this land,"

Lucy gave him a meaningful look and decided to follow his orders.

"We need to enter the royal library, I have a feeling that we can find something more there," Velian didn't know why? But he had a feeling that he should do what that shadow-like person told him to do.

"I believe you! Even though I have been trying to find the location and identity of the mastermind behind this, but I couldn't do that," Lucy said and looked at Velian.

"Our group will follow you, what should we do? We can make a riot in the city-" She tried to give an idea, but Velian quickly refused it.

"No, if we do that, all the guards will become more alert, we should sneak into the library without anyone noticing, they might destroy the evidence if they know what we are trying to do,"

Velian knew even if they manage to kill all the guards if it alert the remaining and the mastermind, it will be the worst they can expect.

"Tonight, we will sneak in, and once we find the shreds of evidence, we will quickly launch an attack, I asked my army to get ready and some of them might arrive tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, we might even not need them, but I asked just in case,"

The moon hung high in the velvety night sky, casting a faint glow over the ancient city of Dukas.

Within the majestic walls of the royal palace, a group of daring young women plotted to unveil the secrets that had plagued their land for far too long.

Velian, Daphnia, and Lucy, accompanied by several other fearless succubus girls, were determined to infiltrate the heavily guarded royal library. Their mission: to find the evidence that would expose the enigmatic mastermind behind the chaos consuming their land and peace.

Dressed in attire befitting the shadows, the girls blended seamlessly with the darkness.

Velian, the group's charismatic leader figure, donned a sleek, black leather ensemble, accentuated with silver embroidery that glimmered in the moonlight. He wore a hooded cloak, concealing his silver hair, and strapped to his side was a slender dagger which looked more like a needle, its hilt adorned with intricate carvings.

Beside her, Daphnia, a skilled mage with her gorgeous silver curls, wore a form-fitting, forest-green tunic that allowed her nimble movements. Her piercing emerald eyes sparkled with determination, a reflection of her unwavering commitment to justice.

Lucy, the group's expert lock-picker and strategist, donned a midnight blue robe, blending seamlessly with the night. Her nimble fingers were concealed beneath black leather gloves, each fingertip adorned with a silvery rune. Hidden within the folds of her robe was an assortment of tools, her trusted companions for overcoming any obstacle.

"I didn't expect you to have such a skill Lucy," Velian muttered in a low tone, to which she just replied with a smile.

"What can I say, I'm a versatile woman, my lord,"

As the girls approached the palace, they observed the vigilant guards patrolling the perimeter. Their armour clinked with each step, and their torches cast eerie shadows that danced on the castle walls. The library, an impenetrable fortress, stood as a symbol of the kingdom's vast knowledge, but also its well-guarded secrets.

Velian whispered, his voice barely audible over the rustling of their garments,

"We must avoid the guards at all costs. They're trained to detect intruders, and we cannot afford to raise the alarm."

The group scattered, their steps silenced by years of practice and determination. Each girl utilized her unique skills to navigate the labyrinthine corridors, utilizing the darkness as their ally. Their hearts pounded with excitement as they executed their plan flawlessly, silently disabling a guard here and neutralizing another there.

Finally, they reached the colossal wooden doors of the royal library. The intricate lock securing the door posed a daunting challenge, with its complex mechanism designed to ward off any unauthorized entry. Lucy stepped forward, her gloved hand hovering over the intricate engravings.

With a mischievous glint in her eyes, Lucy whispered,

"Watch and learn, my friends."
