Chapter 408: The Empire of the Sun vs The Kingdom of Demons (11)

I had to admit. She was a good actress.

"Release my girlfriend from your spell," I said, and the succubus just cackled like the evil witch that she was… until she suddenly choked up and screamed with pain.

She gripped onto the bed that Ysal was currently lying on, and once the searing pain had stopped, she caught her breath and looked up at me with hateful eyes.

"What did you do to me,"

Her words were more demanding than a question which was probably due to her innate ruler-like nature… but now that I wasn't under her control, I didn't have to listen to her.

I smirked and just sat on the edge of the bed before stroking Ysal's pale cheek; she had entered some type of deathly state but wasn't completely dead, meaning there was still some hope.

"H-Huh? Why isn't the mark working?" The empress muttered to herself.

"Ysal fucked you up good. I'm sure she only kept you alive because she needed you to heal her, but, of course, you won't do that so easily," I muttered.

"I have no clue what you're talking about,"

I looked around the room, which was filled with patients, nurses, and guards all rushing around and spewing their guts everywhere.

"Let's move her," I muttered before picking up my beautiful girlfriend in a princess carry and taking her to our room.

The empress, of course, followed me as she felt a slight tugging on her soul the farther she and Ysal separated.

"So… I came to this plane because the draconic attendant of one of the kings of hell has asked you to help him out,"

Just as I said those words, her face frowned, and a bit of leaking bloodlust coated the room.

It was barely any from her, but it was still enough to literally paint the walls a dark red color which was relentless as it soon spread to the door and outside the room.

But, the white ring around her neck quickly snapped her back to reality.

"*cough* *cough* *cough* *cough* *cough*... He couldn't come here by himself and needed a weak thing like you to call out to me. Did you accidentally fall in love with me, or were you trying to warm up to me in order to break this news better… because I'm fucking seething," She muttered, her eyes glowing an eerie pink.

She was definitely still scary, and if it weren't for Ysal, I would've definitely lost as not only is she immortal, but she is practically invincible to even the strongest warriors.

"A mix of both, but right now, that doesn't matter. Heal Ysal because you're running out of time. If she dies, you die with her… and I'm not talking about your body, but your literal soul. When you trapped me in that illusion, I felt something spreading across my soul, and clearly, that meant this was a soul attack. The thing Ysal placed on  you is a soul link which is also kind of a master-servant relationship,"

The woman could clearly tell I was lying, but now that there was a possibility that what I explained might happen, she was much wearier.

"You'll be stuck with her for the rest of your life anyway. You felt that tugging, didn't you?"

She clicked her tongue, and it seemed her stubborn pride was getting in the way as she just turned around and pouted like a little kid.

"What the hell… Whatever, feel yourself go insane," I sighed before exiting the room and traveling back to the battlefield.

The demons had gained a new source of determination even after getting pushed back, but I helped to keep them at bay.

I had a wide range of AOE attacks, but even then… there was one hell of a lot of demons continuously filling in the gaps.

…

After about two weeks, much longer than I had anticipated, the empress finally broke and reluctantly released Ysal from the seal.

The ring around her neck would react if she tried to pull anything fishy, but I still stood by her side, making sure just in case.

"She might be in a bit of pain…." The empress muttered, and all of a sudden, Ysal arched her back before screaming in so much pain that it looked like she was actually about to die.

My anxiety was through the roof, as I just hoped the ring around her neck would actually threaten her.

I hoped she wasn't trying to kill her right in front of my eyes.

After holding back hundreds of guards from flooding into my residence, the empress finally fell back onto her ass, exhausted as the white ring around her throat glowed a dim yellow.

"ARGHHHHHH!" She cried out in pain, meaning she had pulled something fishy.

"You mother-... URGH! YSAL! YSAL!" I cried out as I shook her body violently while occasionally glancing back at the Empress, who smiled viciously.

"You stupid bitch… Letting me handle your lover like that," She smirked, and just as I was about to go punch her, I felt a tug on my arm holding me back.

"Stop… She didn't do anything," I heard a familiar voice.

I quickly snapped my head around, only to see Ysal sitting up with glossy and sleepy eyes as if she had just woken up from the best nap of her life.

No words left my mouth as I jumped into her arms, hugging her so tight and with such ferocity that she began to get the wind pressed out of her.

"Okay, okay… you're going to kill me, Arpious… Come on, let go," She muttered, and after a few minutes of her struggling, I finally let go and stared into her eyes with tears streaming down my face.

"D-Don't ever worry me like that again. You should've prioritized yourself… I don't care if all the drakes get wiped out. I just want you to survive," I muttered, and she soon brought me into her collarbone, where she continuously showered my forehead with kisses.

"How sweet," A angered succubus muttered from behind me.
