Chapter 311
Evan D. Sherden, Pa.s.sed Night (5)
Evan was dreaming. Was it because he fell asleep without wearing the cursed nightcap after a long time ago? He didn’t know why, but it was a bizarre dream.
[Please, hug me for now.]
The voice of an invisible woman tapped Evan’s ear. During the dream without context, Evan realized that he was holding the woman in his arms. It was a woman other than Belois.
‘It’s a dream.’
How could he sleep with Belois and dream about another woman? Was he such a man with no control? He was in a hurry to escape the woman’s arms in his dream because it was ridiculous, but he suddenly realized that this woman felt very familiar.
‘No, it’s certain. There’s a better chance of dreaming of a woman I know than a woman I don’t know…’
Then who was she? The woman was so important to him that she came to his dream the night he spent his first night with Belois. He tried to ponder it, but soon he stopped because it might be rude to Belois. No matter how determined he was to collect them all, it was too much to think of another woman and leave someone sleeping with him now.
‘I need to wake up early.’
[No…]
‘Huh?’
Did she read his mind? Maybe it’s because it’s a dream, but come to think of it, wouldn’t it be strange that such clear thinking was possible?
[It’ll be just a minute, so hug me.]
‘What is this…?’
His body was out of control. He hugged her more than she told him to, instinctively realizing that it was dangerous. It wasn’t an ordinary dream!
‘Wait, the Succubus! Is this a Succubus dream?’
Evan shuddered at the thought of ‘The Succubus Ending,’ which was overwhelmingly well-received by male fans among Evan’s death scenes in the game. It was an event that occurred randomly when Evan didn’t die until the game progressed to a certain extent, and the main character’s dungeon attack went over 30 stories. The conditions of the critical n.o.bles’ activities and some of the Demon race’s seals were released.
‘It was like a death sentence for me because Evan would die unconditionally when the event occurred, but as provocative CGs came out, most players tried to cause the event on purpose. Cruel thugs…’
The reason why the Succubus, a high-quality workforce treated as special soldiers, attacked a person who wasn’t as crucial as Evan wasn’t revealed until the end. Players had concluded that Evan was just handsome and that he had the misfortune to die. That also fitted well with Evan’s unlucky setting. However, if he thought about it now that a demon had cursed him, it might have all been an indication that Evan had hidden an unknown secret.
‘But the situation is completely different now. Why at this timing? No, maybe because it’s the right timing?’
Of course, Evan, who knew the extraordinary power of Succubus, was ready to attack her at any moment. Belois set up a magic seal in his room every day, and Evan himself worked hard to develop curse-resistance and magic-resistance. But why? Was it not enough to have tried this hard?
‘No, let’s calm down. My death occurs if I am completely absorbed by the energy. It’s just a matter of keeping my head straight. Evan in the game was robbed quickly because he was so weak, but it wasn’t me…!’
Of course, he hung up before entering the match because of the age limit, but Evan’s CG, which was robbed of his soul and died before the Succubus showed anything, looked pathetic in contrast to the s.e.xy pose in a costume. But what about Evan now? He had steadily raised his level of existence since childhood, and he had intensely trained the top-tier fighting skills that provided a healthy correction to his physical strength and even raised his dungeon level to 71. Even if his opponent were a Succubus, it wouldn’t end quickly! However, it was a pity that he couldn’t get the corrections of the artifacts he was wearing because he was in a dream. If only there were black clouds that miraculously helped stamina or recovery, Succubus wouldn’t be scary…!
[Hug me]
‘Hmm…?’
But Evan, who was so absorbed in the countermeasures that he ignored Succubus, soon realized something was wrong. It was because the Succubus, which was going to have to press down on him right away and squeeze out the energy, had been making only one demand.
[Please, hug me]
‘That’s weird.’
Was it not a Succubus? No, but the only things that could have such a strong effect on dreams were Succubae and Incubi, called dream owners among the Demon races. There was another strange thing. No matter how hard Evan tried to see the face of the Succubus, a hazy mist covered her face.
‘Something’s wrong. I can’t believe you’re hiding your face when you’re trying to charm me…?’
[It’s enough to think about it later. Hug me now.]
‘Do you think I’ll do what Succubus tells me to do?’
However, unlike what he just said, Evan was gently holding the faceless Succubus in his arms. Even though he knew he was being charmed, he didn’t feel any objections. It was just familiar and comfortable. Was this the effect of her charm?
‘No…’
What kind of Succubus in the world created a dream for a hug? There were so many riddles that his brain wouldn’t work correctly. That was probably why Evan asked a silly question.
‘Aren’t you here to kill me?’
In the game, Evan lost his life in exchange for a hot night with a Succubus. That was the case with all the Succubae. It was their way to drain and kill someone after sucking every drop of the energy from the target. But now, this behavior was the opposite. Even though the Succubus controlled his dream, it wouldn’t be infinite, but now she was begging him to hug her in a blatant waste of time.
[I have to kill you.]
‘You have to kill me, so what?’
[I can’t kill you. It’s okay.]
‘You can’t kill me, so you’re okay. What the h.e.l.l are you talking about…?’
So, when her expected answer returned, Evan had no idea how to treat her.
[Oh my G.o.d, time’s up.]
At that time, Succubus muttered sorrowfully. Then, she stepped out of Evan’s arms and stood up. Her face was still invisible, but the hand that kept her body in order evoked a strange nostalgia for Evan.
[I’ll be back again. Because I have to kill you.]
‘So, you want me to be happy?’
[I won’t be able to kill you then, so you will be fine.]
‘I want you to tell me so I can understand.’
His words made the Succubus laugh. Her face seemed to be visible to Evan now, even though her face couldn’t be seen.
[To let you understand…that’s right.]
She approached Evan again, and his body was raised in response to her. He thought he would be forced to wake up from his dream if he resisted strongly, but it seemed as if she didn’t intend to kill him, so let it go rather than provoke her…
[I love you.]
No, it might have been better to wake up by force. The Succubus approached him and kissed him without leaving him any time to say anything or resist. The infinitely hot and vivid kiss left a presence on his lips.
[That’s it.]
‘No, you, too, I know…!’
As the s.p.a.ce in the dream collapsed, his consciousness began to be sucked into reality. Just for a second, he thought he saw the face of Succubus, but…Evan soon forgot about it.
“…Hmm?”
“Good night, Master.”
When he opened his eyes, Belois’ face was right in front of him. The texture that touched his lips was Belois’s lips. Belois also had a pretty romantic side to kiss Evan, who was sleeping, waking him up.
“I’m sorry, but seeing your sleeping face made me want to kiss you.”
“How am I supposed to react when you say something so plain and shameful?”
“Yes…”
Belois held out her lips without saying a word. He thought she was doing this kind of shameful behavior, but he suddenly remembered what happened yesterday. Then, realizing that she was more ashamed and had nothing to do after sleeping, Evan decided to kiss her as much as she wanted. Meanwhile, Evan completely forgot about the Succubus.
“I love you, Master…!”
“Lua, you.”
Belois, who got excited by the several kisses, hugged Evan. Evan panicked and pushed himself up a little on the bed as Belois’ naked body, who boasted a fascinating volume, approached.
“No, it’s morning now. We have to get up.”
“Wouldn’t it be okay to take a day off like this?”
Evan could swear it was the first time Belois said she wanted to rest. Evan was delighted by the honest response she had never shown before, but unfortunately, he couldn’t listen.
“Think about what’s going to happen if we’re stuck in a room and don’t go out for a day. First of all, all the knights will notice.”
“If that happens…I think I can feel a great sense of superiority.”
“Oh, my Lua has become a little too honest.”
Evan decided to get up first because he thought Belois would remain excited if he hugged her like this.
“Oops.”
“No…”
As he crawled up, Belois puffed her cheeks and complained silently, even though that was lovely too.
“There’s plenty of time ahead, and we need to move in the daytime.”
“You’re always pushing yourself too hard. Most humans enjoy taking a nap.”
Evan shrugged. He was busier than most people in the world, but it wasn’t even that hard because of his physical strength trained by various means. However, Belois seemed to have worried a lot about Evan’s appearance. Given her opportunity at this point, Evan was dragged over to Belois, who was pestering him.
“Okay, okay. I lost. Sooner or later, I’ll make sure you’re ready to roll around in bed all day.”
“Yes, I’m already looking forward to it.”
After getting what she wanted, Belois finally kissed Evan on the cheek and started dressing up. While feeling a little disappointed at the sight of her coveted naked body being hidden in clothes, Evan also dressed and washed his face in the bathroom attached to the room. After telling Belois to hide in the room for a while, he tried to open the door first.
“Good morning.”
“Huh!?”
High Elf Mirole stood right in front of the door.
“Oh, I’m sorry if I scared you.”
“No, no…good morning.”
Evan closed the door as naturally as possible but at a breathtaking speed. And he tried hard to smile.
“What happened in the morning?”
“No, just another normal night.”
Unlike Evan, the High Elf spoke to him with a bright smile from the bottom of her heart.
“I’m glad you’re okay.”
