[Vorn's POV]
"Are you kidding me, Xenora?" My hands clenched tightly, and I felt like my insides were boiling. "You have always supported Phisovia, but why do you want to get rid of her now?"
"T-that's not what I meant, my lord." Xenora, who was talking to me via long-distance communication, responded nervously. "I don't like that either. However, don't you feel that argument makes sense? How can the succubi follow madam Phisovia when she has never been with them?"
I massage my forehead. This conversation shouldn't have angered me. Xenora gave a valid opinion, and I want the succubus regimen to remain solid.
However, I want Phisovia to come back to build this with me. She was the one who accompanied me from the start and supported me.
I don't want to throw her away like garbage.
"Please, think about it, my lord." Xenora's voice started to get hoarse, like someone who was about to cry.
I hung up the connection, then leaned my back against my throne.
Should I make another big sacrifice?
Hearing the creaking sound of Phisovia's wheelchair approaching, I straightened up and smiled, trying to hide what was on my mind.
"How was your walk, honey?" I asked her. "Did you enjoy it?"
She nodded. "I just had a nice chat with Velvet. I think she will be a good wife for you."
I cleared my throat, feeling awkward with her words. "I'm glad you two got along like that."
"My lord…." She tilted her head and narrowed her eyes. "Is there something bothering you?"
"Not really." I shook my head and widened my smile. "Everything is alright. Maybe I'm just too tired to think about things. My territory is now very wide, you know?"
She paused and kept looking at me. "You can tell me everything. You know that, right?"
I stared back at her. In the end, she will know this sooner or later. There's no point hiding it for too long.
"Let me be with her," I spoke to the succubus pushing Phisovia's wheelchair, then got up from the throne. After that, I turned to my guards near the throne. "You don't have to follow me."
They saluted me, and I pushed the wheelchair away from the throne.
"So." Phisovia opened the conversation. "What do you want to talk about, my lord?"
I took a deep breath. "It seems there is resistance regarding you becoming the general again. They don't know you, so they hesitate to trust or follow your orders."
"I see." She nodded. "Well, I've been gone for too long, after all."
I kept pushing the wheelchair without saying anything else. All that was heard was the screeching sound of that thing's wheels.
She looked at me again. "Anything else you'd like to say?"
This is the toughest part of it. No matter how I say it, her heart will hurt.
She would probably feel betrayed.
"The thing is…." I still didn't want to say this, but at the same time, I didn't want to keep her in the dark for too long. "Xenora also thinks the same thing. She feels the succubus regiment will not be solid under your leadership."
The red-haired woman looked forward again. "I see."
We both fell silent again, and I continued to push her wheelchair.
"I have a question, my lord." She muttered after a while. "Do you still want me to become a general?"
"Of course," I answered without any hesitation. "I want you to play a big role in what I'm building."
"You are the king…. No, more than that, my lord." The red-haired succubus' voice became firmer. "You should get what you want. You have a way for me to become a general and have high authority over my subordinates, right?"
Damn. I didn't expect to get a response like this from her. "By defeating whoever the candidate they give you, you will gain more authority. They will acknowledge your leadership, like it or not. Unfortunately, you are not in the best condition to fight."
"Then, do you have a solution for that?"
I stopped the wheelchair, then crouched in front of her. "Yes, but this might hurt you."
She brought her face closer to mine. "I am yours, so I will do anything for you, even giving my life to you."
I looked deep into her eyes. Despite her weak state, she still has a fiery determination.
"I know a method from Dr. Lexi." I again pushed Phisovia's wheelchair. "This is the fastest way to make you recover, and it is related to your core as a succubus."
I turned into Phisovia's room, simultaneously calling someone to tell Lexi something.
***
Phisovia lay naked in her bed, her eyes wide, her mouth open for air, and her skin sweating buckets. Meanwhile, I looked at the red-haired woman with my hands on the sides of her head.
The succubus really looked like she was about to die. It's been more than eight hours since I had sex with her, sending lots of cum into her womb. Lexi said those liquids would help heal her. At first, she might look very exhausted like this, but when she wakes up later, her condition will improve.
However, she needs a massive amount of it to recover fast.
Sitting by the bed, the doctor brought her glowing palm to the succubus' head.
She gulped before finally speaking. "S-she can still do it, my lord."
"Are you sure?" I asked, feeling bad about Phisovia's condition.
"She does look like that, but she can still receive sex. Succubus bodies are designed to withstand any kind of sex no matter how brutal it is." Lexi continued while looking down.
"I'd do it again, Phisovia," I whispered to my woman. "Are you still up to it?"
Surprisingly, she managed to smile. "D-don't stop, my lord."
"I will do this every day, every night, for hours. You will feel tired and in immeasurable pain." I gave her a warning. "Can you stand all that?"
She closed her eyes and nodded weakly.
I kissed her forehead and whispered again. "This is another reason I want you to become general. Your tenacity is truly extraordinary."
Slowly, I inserted my male shaft into her feminine part. She winced and bit her lip, clearly in pain.
Please, hang in there, Phisovia. As I said, you will be a big part of this.
