"…"
"…"
"So you attacked him just because you wanted to test your strength against a demon?"
Erotica questioned as she raised her eyebrow.
"And to test your strength, the best way you found was to surround your opponent and force him into a 10v1 battle?
Heh, rather than Warrior, I can only see a coward inside you."
Erotica snorted.
Although she wasn't particularly prideful, she was still a demon. She didn't like the fact that mere humans surrounded someone from her race, especially someone who was one of her subordinates.
"Oh yeah? What did you expect would happen after you infiltrate a Kingdom and start killing its people? You think you would be welcomed with respect?
Be grateful we didn't kill him and you, for that matter."
Astaria narrowed her eyes as she glanced at Erotica.
"You sound pretty confident." Erotica smiled.
"How about you have a go at me? Of course, since you like to team up so much, I would allow you all to come at me together.
Let's see if you are all still so great when your opponent knows you are going to attack them."
Erotica challenged.
Astaria narrowed her eyes.
"I do not nee-"
"Heeehh? I think you are forgetting something, demon."
However, before Astaria could complete, Nux placed his arm around Erotica,
Erotica's face turned red as Nux leaned his weight on her.
Nux then brought his face close to hers and smiled.
"You think I would stay still while you challenge my wife?"
"Y-Your w-wife?"
Erotica stuttered.
"Were you not paying attention before?
You have to improve this habit of yours, demon.
Or it might bring you troubles in the future.
Let me introduce you to them,
All these lovely women here,
They are my wives.
And, they are also the reasons why none of your stupid tricks would work on me.
It is not your fault though, your competition is just… insanely high."
Nux smiled as he glanced at his wives.
Then, his face turned solemn and,
"Also, do not try what you just tried.
The moment you aim at them,
I will end your life."
"…"
Erotica turned silent.
She then glanced at Astaria and,
"I-I apologize. I was rude."
Astaria didn't reply.
She was thinking about something else.
'Not now.'
Nux, who understood what she was thinking and spoke to her using the connection,
'You cannot fight her right now.
She is strong.'
Astaria glanced at Nux for a while, then, her expression changed,
"Alright, I believe we had a wrong start.
Let's change that,
My name is Astaria Leander."
Astaria spoke as she extended her hand for a handshake.
"Erotica Lust, I am a Succubus, a Sex Demon.
And he is Gartos Filson, an Incubus,"
Erotica replied as she shook Astaria's hand. She then glanced at other women and soon, her eyes fell on Allura.
"You…"
She narrowed her eyes.
"Allura Leander, although our first encounter wasn't very great, I hope we get along in the future."
Allura smiled.
"R-Right."
Erotica nodded, then she glanced at the other women and they all started introducing themselves as well.
…
Once the introduction was done, Amaya stepped forward and questioned directly,
"You are from the main continent, correct?"
"There is no such thing as 'Main Continent'." Erotica replied.
Unlike before, where she was treating everything… well… jokingly.
Things have changed now,
She saw Nux's strength…
And honestly, she can hardly think of a King Stage Cultivator stronger than this man.
This bastard is in a league of his own.
For him to be this strong when he was born in this… weird continent…
And he was not alone, these wives of his were all monstrous as well.
The Mana here was sparse, barely enough to become an Emperor and… all his wives were Emperors…
If these people were born in Yrniel… they would all be big shots…
She had to respect that…
Therefore… she decided to answer their questions seriously, she was curious to see their reactions.
Also, it was not like she was going to tell them any secrets, they were only asking for General information after all…
If she wanted to get along with them, she had to show her goodwill as well.
"Alright, I will answer all your questions from now on, however,"
Erotica then glanced at Nux and smiled playfully,
"I have a condition."
"If it is about sleeping with me, then forget abou-"
"Yeah Yeah, you love your wives, I get it, you have said that many times now. Don't reject me again and again, it hurts my pride.
Anyways, I was not asking that.
Friend.
I want you to become your friend."
"A sudden change in heart I see."
Nux commented.
Erotica just smiled.
Did she give up?
Of course not.
She loved challenges, there is no way she is giving up.
Heck, she hadn't even started.
However, for Nux, she realized she had to use a different approach.
She needed time.
Being his friend was enough for now.
She would crawl over his bed sooner or later.
Fufufu~
"Alright, I agree.
You tell us everything you know, and I will be your friend.
However, I am not the one asking the questions this time."
"Hmm? Then who is it?"
Erotica frowned.
"Remember the expert I was talking about?" Nux smiled as he glanced at Amaya.
A smile appeared on Amaya's face as she glanced toward Erotica.
Erotica smiled as well,
"We are not going to start here, are we?"
"Let's go to our Mansion."
Amaya replied and the others nodded.
A few minutes later, all of them were inside the room and finally, Amaya started,
"We know nothing about anything outside this continent, give us a brief summary.
What is the outside world called?"
Amaya started with a simple question.
"The World we live inside is called Yrniel.
However, unlike what you think,
There is no 'Main Continent' in Yrniel.
Yrniel is divided into 5 Major Continents.
Well… 5 before… counting this makes it 6…
However, there is a huge difference between this Continent and the others.
The First being Mana,
The Mana here is… well, pathetically sparse.
It is so low that I am having a hard time using my Spells."
"You are having a hard time?"
Nux raised his eyebrow.
"Of course, you think I would need that much time for a basic spell?"
"That… was a basic spell…?"
Nux's expression changed.
He had a lot to learn…
