Volume 6 + Chapter 147: The Succubus Lady Who Keeps Losing

Maginot Fortress, military cafeteria.

“Ella, why aren’t you eating?”

Xia Yi used her fork to pick up a piece of beef and put it in her mouth, savoring her dinner.

The succubus lady, who had just been released from the prison, stared at the food on her plate with a troubled expression.

“I…”

“Alright, alright, don’t be so picky. Having something to eat at all is already pretty good.”

Xia Yi generously forked up all the broccoli from her own plate and placed every last piece onto Ella’s plate.

“You haven’t eaten since you were locked up. Here, I’ll share some with you. Eat more, don’t be shy!”

“Thank you, Xia Yi…”

Without any appetite, Ella picked up her utensils and prepared to dig in.

However, ordinary eating could not satisfy a succubus’s needs. This special type of demon had to enter other people’s dreams and absorb dream energy to replenish its own succubus power.

Simply eating food would absolutely not do.

Even if she ate these meals, Ella would still feel hungry.

She had to find a way to replenish the succubus energy she had recently expended.

After all, her last attempt had been foiled by Xia Yi. Not only had she consumed her energy, but she had also gained nothing in return. All things considered, it was a complete loss.

As the saying goes, every debt has its debtor.

Since Xia Yi was the one who made her suffer the loss, then Xia Yi would have to make up for it!

But the most important reason of all was…

She craved Xia Yi’s body.

With that thought in mind, the succubus lady cast a discreet glance at the silver dragon loli before her, her heart stirring with mischievous intentions.

Tonight, she would drain this little silver dragon dry.

Therefore, she absolutely could not reveal her true intentions. She had to put on an act.

Pretending to be happy, she ate the food, even the broccoli that Xia Yi had given her, finishing everything.

“Mmm~ I’m full. It’s actually surprisingly tasty.”

Ella picked up a napkin, wiped her mouth, and gave a fake evaluation.

“I’m glad you liked it, Ella,” Xia Yi replied.

“Xia Yi, have you already spoken with the Maginot Fortress military high command on my behalf?”

“Yes, I’ve talked to them. I pleaded your case, and they agreed to suspend your punishment for now. They want me to supervise your actions. As long as you don’t cause trouble, sincerely repent, and offer help to Maginot Fortress, after an observation period they’ll drop the charges against you.” Xia Yi explained.

“That’s wonderful! Xia Yi, you really are reliable. I’ll definitely reform myself and become a good succubus!”

Ella put on a deeply moved expression, even squeezing out tears.

In her heart, though, she was rolling her eyes.

Hmph, after I suck you dry tonight, I’ll make a run for it. Who would want to stay in a place like this?

“Alright, Ella, since we’re both finished eating, let’s head back to the dorm. You still have a lot to learn.”

“Okay~”

Xia Yi and Ella left the cafeteria together and returned to the dormitory.

A temporary single bed had been added to the room. From now on, Ella will sleep here.

“Xia Yi, does anyone else live in your room?” Ella asked curiously.

“Yes, I have a roommate, but she’s out on a mission and won’t be back anytime soon.”

“Oh…”

“Now I need to teach you some basic rules of Maginot Fortress. You must learn them by tomorrow afternoon!”

Xia Yi pulled out a copy of the Maginot Fortress Code of Conduct and stuffed it into Ella’s hands.

For the rest of the time, Ella pretended to listen very attentively to Xia Yi’s explanations, but in reality, the words went in one ear and out the other. Her mind was entirely occupied with planning how to deal with Xia Yi that night, and what kind of roleplay to do…

Oh right, a maid roleplay!

She would have the little silver dragon put on a white-stockinged maid uniform, call her “Master,” and serve her. Then she would find fault with the little silver dragon, use that as an excuse to punish her severely, and bully her until she burst into tears!

“…Ella, did you remember everything I just said?”

“Yes, I remember,” Ella replied.

“Then repeat back what I just told you.”

“Well, about that…”

“You didn’t listen at all, did you?” Xia Yi narrowed her eyes.

“I did listen! But you said so much, I need to sort it all out before bed. Besides, it’s already so late. Why don’t we just rest?” Ella initiated the first step of her trap.

“Alright, it is pretty late.”

Xia Yi glanced at the clock. It was time to sleep.

“Xia Yi, have you taken a shower yet?” Ella continued with the second step of her trap.

“Not yet…”

“Then you go take one first. I’m a bit sleepy, so I’ll skip it for now.” Ella hopped onto her bed.

“Mm, fine.”

Xia Yi agreed.

She gathered her things, grabbed a change of clothes, and left the room.

As soon as Xia Yi was gone, Ella immediately jumped off the bed.

“Heh heh, get ready to be devoured, little silver dragon~”

The succubus lady wore a smug smirk. While Xia Yi was showering, she began setting up traps in the room…

…

…

Late at night, the dormitory was pitch black and utterly silent.

Ella opened her heterochromatic eyes, looked toward Xia Yi’s bed, and softly called out, “Xia Yi…?”

“…”

“Are you asleep?”

“…”

“Heh heh.”

Ella let out a cold laugh. No sound came from Xia Yi’s bed, only the steady rhythm of breathing. Clearly, she was in a deep sleep.

The time was ripe. She could make her move.

She activated her succubus’s dream-entering ability.

Special traps had already been subtly placed throughout the room, continuously taking effect.

Anyone who fell asleep here would be completely under her control.

“No matter how powerful a warrior, facing my meticulously prepared traps, they are helpless. This place… has become my domain.”

Confidently, Ella arrived in the dream world. As the one controlling this dream realm, she sensed the presence of another person.

“Dream Domination · Controlling Hand! Little silver dragon, come to my side~”

With a flourish, she raised her hand and snapped her fingers, seizing control of the dream world. She summoned a pair of white gloves that grabbed the sleeping figure.

Humming a cheerful tune, she manipulated the white gloves to carry the sleeper back to her.

“So what if I keep losing, over and over? As long as I persist, one day I will succeed! Little silver dragon, I’ve got you for sure!”

With her victory declaration, Ella had the white gloves slowly open under her control, revealing the captured dragon inside.

But the moment the scene came into view, the succubus lady was completely dumbfounded. This was a situation she had never anticipated.

“…Who are you?! Where’s my little silver dragon?!”
