Volume 1 Chapter 448
by post_apiChapter 448: Lolth, You Shameless Succubus!
Since this definition of "skill" is non-combat, the "mocking" that Lalea needs is surely not the combat skill of knights and warriors.
This should mean mocking in the literal sense.
Sarcasm, insults, and all those similar words.
Lalea seems to be very good at this kind of thing.
In fact, everyone can feel that the "princess" has a very sharp tongue.
It seems that she is holding back because everyone present is so strong.
When Lalea heard that her "testing skill" was mocking, she smiled a significant smile.
"Oh, so this is what you think is my best ‘skill’? Digging into a realm’s power just so I can attack you with words?" Lalea gently covered part of her face, her eyes and smile showing a hint of disdain. "I thought creating your kind was a bit strange before, but I didn’t expect it to be so low and tasteless. But I guess there might be some part of you that surpasses your own kind."
After she said this, the magical energy wave finally arrived.
A faint figure slowly formed in front of her.
Lalea froze for a moment and then softly clicked her tongue.
"Tsk… So it hasn’t started yet."
She showed a look of feeling deceived and having wasted her experience.
However, the four onlookers vaguely realized that Lalea was mostly doing it on purpose…
She looked quite pleased with herself.
But no one called her out—after all, everyone found it quite satisfying.
This "Artificial Soul" from the Ailuo race, hiding behind the scenes, deserved some scolding!
Especially Lolth, who simply gave Lalea a thumbs up.
"Come on, Your Highness the Princess!"
Lolth cheered for Lalea.
And at that moment…
The figure that had formed finally took shape.
It was a figure that looked very similar to Lolth.
But its expression was blank, and it also had the succubus tail and sharp horns that Lolth had hidden away.
This completely stunned Lolth, who usually loved to watch the excitement.
"What is this thing—?"
She looked at the silver puppet with dissatisfaction.
Is this really aimed at targeting and taking revenge on myself?
Lalea glanced at Lolth and showed an apologetic expression.
"I can’t help it; please don’t take my next words to heart," Lalea said with innocent sincerity, looking at Lolth with pitiful eyes. "If you want to blame someone, blame the Autonomous Guard left behind by the Ailuo race and that hidden thing behind the scenes!"
Lolth didn’t believe a single word of what Lalea said or her expression.
This guy is definitely trying to take the chance to attack herself!
And the first thing Lalea said confirmed Lolth’s suspicion.
"Hey, you idiot, look over here! Stop acting so dumbfounded… Do you think your disguise is good? Is this foolish, silly, and stupid character just your real self?"
Lalea’s first words raised Lolth’s blood pressure.
"It’s fine, it’s fine… They’re not talking about me."
Lolth took a deep breath and quietly reminded and comforted herself.
But for Lalea, this was just the beginning.
"Of course, we won’t talk about how your lack of skills could be a problem, but it seems like you are a bit lazy in everything you do… Do you really think that is a good thing?"
"Do you think that treating ‘comfort and ease’ as your life’s motto can hide your laziness and ignorance? Isn’t that just giving up?"
"So your purpose in coming to this world is to waste your life until you die… You boast about seeing through everything, thinking that nothing matters? And you dare to look down on those who are trying hard to chase what you think is ‘meaningless value’?"
"Hiding in a barrel and saying pretty words won’t make your laziness seem reasonable; it will only make you feel okay about it."
Lalea continued to speak, and Lolth’s face turned red.
She couldn’t even get angry.
Although Lalea’s words seemed to not be about her, this was still directed at someone who looked just like her.
Lolth clearly understood that her true nature… was indeed that of a lazy dog.
This was a precise strike at her weak point.
She was even a bit shaken.
Why, after knowing Lalea for less than two days, did she realize this…
Had her lazy dog traits already spilled out so seriously?
Even though Lolth thought her thick skin was strong for being a lazy dog, she couldn’t help but feel a little uneasy inside after hearing all this.
Yi took a look at Lolth’s reaction, then glanced at the smiling Lalea, and couldn’t help but shiver.
"How ruthless."
For the first time, she realized that words might be sharper than the sword in her hand.
The earlier Lalea is indeed gathering.
But everyone did not realize that Lalea’s output is not over yet.
"You said all this is just your personal problem, yet you are still an Abyssal Succubus… While I have no strong opinions about different races, I still wonder if Abyssal Demons are truly completely evil and chaotic, but it seems the reputation of the Succubus clan has never been good, has it?"
"As the interrogator of the Demon Army, sneaking alone into enemy territory, what are you, a foolish little succubus, planning to do?"
"Although you always act as if you are different, just now, speaking those embarrassing words was still a routine, wasn’t it? To put it simply, you are still carrying some shamelessness in your very nature — speaking of which, as a succubus princess, it must be quite hard for you to earn genuine affection from people, right?"
"To be honest, everyone might like you because of your natural charm coming from your pure Succubus bloodline or even the lineage of the charm witches, but how many truly like you as a person? Trying so hard to make yourself seem unlike a succubus probably comes from this mentality… but it looks rather unsuccessful."
"You can’t even tell who truly cares for you… can you?"
"Poor succubus, even I feel a bit sorry and want to show you some kindness."
As Lalea said this, Lolth hugged her head.
"Oh no… Stop scolding, stop scolding. If you keep scolding, you’ll make someone go crazy."
Although she was completely no longer angry, with Lolth’s grace and character, she would not break down from such words.
But in a certain way, she was still shaken.
Because when she heard those words, she felt numb all over.
Even though she wasn’t furious or falling apart, being shaken… is still a real form of being shaken.
Lalea’s skill of "mockery" has truly reached an extraordinary level!
