Start with Island Lord

Click~click~click~’

The crisp sound of footsteps was very much like the sound of high-heeled wooden shoes, but Rosen vaguely felt that something was wrong.

"Laifu, analyze the audio track."

A few seconds later, Laifu responded: 'It was the sound of some kind of horn hitting the floor, slightly harder than a sheep's hoof. ’

Rosen was slightly shocked: 'A woman with long hooves? ’

I suddenly felt defensive.

‘Click~~’

The door opened, and an ordinary-looking woman walked out.

She looks to be in her thirties, with dark red to almost black hair, dark red to almost black eyes, slightly dark complexion, very ordinary facial features, and a slightly faded, wrinkled low-quality cotton summer skirt.

The summer skirt was thin, so I saw that the woman's figure was very ordinary, everything was flat, and her whole body was as dry as a matchstick.

If it were Weilan in the aristocratic era, a person with this kind of dress and mental outlook would not be allowed to come near the castle, let alone the Duke's study.

But this is the era of citizenship, and everyone is a citizen.

Although there are still many thoughts of superiority and inferiority among the people, as the Duke who created a new era, he naturally has to set an example.

Rosen squinted his eyes carefully, but only found the five-ring mana, but vaguely, he felt something was wrong, as if the other party was hiding something.

But this is a baseless intuition, and Rosen found no evidence.

After thinking for a moment, he said to Alai: "Close the door and open the barrier. I want to talk to this Ms. Mediana alone."

Alai did as he was told.

‘Click~’

The door was closed, the switch was turned on, and the charged arcane lattice immediately released its power, automatically forming a four-ring arcane wall in the room.

Rosen returned behind the desk, holding the improved third version of the Vulcan repeating gun hidden under the desk with one hand.

The power of this thing has reached the peak of the tenth ring, and it can fire six times in a row. It is simply a small cannon. Anyone who is hit six times will be ejected on the spot.

"Ms. Mediana, you have deceived my eyes, but you cannot deceive my dangerous intuition. Show your true identity."

There was a slightly weird smile on the face of the woman in front of him, and it felt like a forceful expression forced on her face.

Generally, this expression will appear on faces that have used poor quality transformation techniques.

As expected, her body began to change rapidly with this smile.

After more than ten seconds, a woman with a shriveled figure and an ordinary face turned into a tall, plump, almost protruding foreign woman with delicate facial features and an unruly and wild expression.

This time it's really alien.

She is not a foreign race like a forest elf or a banshee, but a foreign woman with hooves on her feet, two long dark red horns behind her forehead, and milky white skin.

But the strange thing is that Rosen still only felt the magic breath of the fifth ring.

"Your Majesty, could you please stop pointing the firegun under the table at me? Be careful of a fire."

She spoke, and her voice was very sweet compared to her huge figure, just like many bulky women on the earth, but they always have a sweet voice.

Of course, the size of this foreign woman is different from Pang Shuo.

There was almost no flesh growing where it shouldn't.

Now that she pointed it out, considering that he was just a clone, Rosen let go of the gun.

He asked: "Are you a succubus?"

He has read many ancient myths in this world, and there are many succubi in the myths.

Some of the mythological illustrations look very similar to the woman in front of me.

The woman smiled: "To be precise, I am from Serela."

"Of course, in your plane, and in many other planes, we are indeed called succubi."

She sighed: "Maybe it's because the appearance of my clan is always difficult for you Dretans to control."

"But this is not our fault, and certainly not the fault of your Dratan race, but the fault of the Creator."

Rosen's eyes circled around the foreign woman and nodded in agreement: "The lady's figure is indeed in line with most men's expectations of the opposite sex."

"Of course, this is an irrelevant detail. What I want to know is, what is the purpose of the lady's visit?"

Mediana bowed slightly and saluted Rosen.

This movement made her breasts look trembling, and it also allowed Rosen to confirm that she was not wearing any restrictive clothing underneath.

"Coming to you for asylum, Lord Duke." said the succubus.

Rosen was noncommittal: "You should be from another dimension. Can't you just go back to where you came from? Why do you need me to protect you?"

Mediana immediately asked, "If you ran away from hell, would you be willing to go back to hell?"

"hell?"

Mediana nodded: "In the plane controlled by the great demon Asema, all living creatures are Asema's toys."

"Any creature that disobeys it will have its body brutally killed, its soul will be pierced on the spikes of wildfire, and it will die in constant mourning."

"The Duke certainly doesn't know about wildfire spikes, but I'll explain it to you."

"This is a terrifying soul magic weapon, spread across the entire Wailing Plains, with a total of 100 million!"

"Duke, you heard that right, it's 100 million!"

"Fifty percent of them have souls inserted into them, which is more than the entire population of Weiland! And the remaining 50 million are constantly inserted into new souls."

"Mortal souls will not die immediately after being pierced by it, because the wildfire on the spikes will provide strength to the soul, but the destruction of the soul structure by the spikes will make the soul feel unparalleled and inescapable pain."

"Such pain will last for at least a hundred years, so the entire plain is filled with shocking wailing sounds."

"Duke, if you were lucky enough to escape from such a world, would you still be willing to go back?"

Rosen really didn't expect that there was such a terrifying place in the world.

Just thinking about it makes my back feel cold, and I am also very curious.

"Why did this Asema do this?"

"I'm not a big devil, I don't know. Anyway, he just likes it, and he also has the terrible power to do it."

Rosen was even more curious: "Is no one resisting him?"

Mediana smiled with emotion: "If you were a group of ants, and someone doused your home with scalding hot water, of course you would want to resist, but is it meaningful?"

She sighed softly: "Asema is the great demon! Or, in other words, the great demon in the void outside the ring!"

As soon as the word 'void outside the ring' appeared, Rosen completely understood the power of the great demon.

Since this kind of existence can survive in the void outside the ring, it must have power beyond the eleventh ring, and this alone has already made Rosen look up.

came Mediana's voice.

"Duke, your plane is lucky, because here, mortals are the masters. But some planes are unfortunate. Because they were not only discovered by the cruel demon god, but also invaded and even destroyed."

Rosen became more and more interested: "Tell me carefully about the situation outside the ring of law."

Mediana shook her head: "I'm sorry, Duke, I am also a mortal. I don't know much about the situation outside the Ring of Magic."

"I only know that there are three planes in the world, one is the divine world, one is the demon world, and one is the mortal world."

"What I escaped was the demon world. There is also a divine world, but it is controlled by various gentle-tempered external gods. And this world..."

She paused with her hooves and made a 'ta-da' sound.

"It's the mortal world where there are no demons or gods."

"Of course, this is just the case for now. No one knows what will happen in the future."

Rosen asked: "Then do you know the Great Demon King Buck?"

Mediana nodded: "You mean the one across the sea, right?"

Rosen nodded.

Meliana's face showed a look of emotion: "To be precise, it is called the Great Demon King Buck Bazenar, and it is the mortal descendant of the Great Demon King Bazenar."

Having said this, she stepped on the ground with her hoof again: "So, to be precise, this world is half the demon world and half the mortal world."

These words shocked Rosen slightly: "Tell me carefully."

Mediana began to explain: "Currently, there are seven known demonic realms, five divine realms and 12 mortal realms."

"Asema is one, Bazenar is another."

"Asema likes soul piercing, and Bazenar likes to conduct various fusion experiments."

"He likes to fuse and reorganize various races in the mortal world using various weird methods to create new races, so he is also called the Great Fusion Demon."

Rosen's eyes were opened: "You know so much."

"Of course, because I'm a traveling mage."

She immediately let out a long sigh.

"Maybe it's because of racial superiority. Many of my tribe are often captured by big demons and used as bait to seduce mortals. Therefore, our tribe's reputation has never been very good, and we even have the reputation of succubus."

Rosen nodded in understanding: "It's similar to the relationship between gangsters and prostitutes."

"As long as the Duke understands."

Mediana breathed a sigh of relief and began to explain her situation.

"I am a Seventh Ring Planeswalker. Seventh Ring is the minimum requirement for a Traveling Mage."

"You see that I have five-ring magic power because I use a secret method to hide my power. As for the secret method, please forgive me for keeping it secret, because this is my special skill."

"I mistakenly responded to the call of a mage in the Glorious Empire. He lied to me and said he needed to trade."

"At that time, I was trapped in the demon world and running for my life. When someone from the mortal world called me, I immediately responded."

"As soon as I came out, I discovered that this was a wandering mage, and he actually wanted me to be his slave."

"After a fight, I killed him and things got really big. I had no choice but to run away."

"I couldn't stay in the Radiant Empire any longer, so I ran to the Natural Alliance. The furthest person in the alliance from the Radiant Empire was Weilan, so I ran here."

"But I can feel that the hounds of the Radiant Empire have been tracking me. In order to protect myself, I can only seek your asylum."

Rosen listened carefully and squinted to observe the succubus's facial expression.

But because the opponent is a real alien, Laifu's facial analysis ability becomes less useful.

So after a thorough observation, Rosen didn't get much valuable information.

In this case, we can only understand it a little bit.

"I don't completely believe what you say. Also, I want to ask, if I shelter you, what will you bring to me?"

"Some knowledge on how to break through the tenth magic circle and become a legendary mage."

Rosen raised an eyebrow: "I don't understand."

Mediana narrowed her eyes and smiled: "You must understand, Duke, because you have the magic power of the tenth ring peak."

"Don't be surprised. It is every planeswalker's specialty to find out the target's true power, otherwise he will die quickly."

"Among all the major planes, mages like you who have reached the peak of the tenth ring at a young age will usually pursue breaking through the eleventh ring and become a legendary mage who can fight against the gods and demons of the void."

"Well~ I know that your world thinks that the Seventh Ring is a legend, but you and I both know that this statement is a bit ridiculous."

"If you don't go through real dangers and see the real stunning scenery, what qualifications do you have to be called a legend?"

Rosen nodded in approval: "You are right."

Promotion in the first ten rings is too easy, as long as you 'jump high enough' you can be promoted, but at the eleventh ring, Rosen felt like walking on a tightrope on a cliff.

Mediana showed a look of reverence on her face.

"The legendary road is a very dangerous road, but it is the only way for mortals like us to fight against the gods and demons of the void."

Rosen's heart was pounding when he heard this, but at the same time he was even more vigilant, because this succubus knew too much, and succubi had a bad reputation.

Who knows if this woman could be a minion of some big devil?

He knows very well that the most terrifying demons in the world often have the most perfect disguises.

He is usually the nicest person, but only at the last moment will he show his true face as a devil and deliver the most fatal blow.

The succubus in front of me has the qualities of a professional liar by stating straight to the point that she is harmless from the very beginning, and then giving the details of the transaction based on her deepest thoughts.

After thinking about it for a few minutes, Rosen asked: "What kind of power can you have after being promoted to a legend?"

"I don't know. After all, I am only a seventh-ring mage. I can only provide you with some methods that may be useful. They are basically what I heard during my travels."

Rosen nodded to show that he understood, and was not disappointed because of it. Instead, he felt good about it.

Because he had planned to set up a laboratory, and now with the method provided by Succubus, he could avoid many detours and save a lot of money.

"How long do you need me to protect you? Or will you stay in this world forever?"

"Shelter for half a year. In half a year, the Amentu plane will intersect with the Dritan plane at a close distance. I have to go to the Amentu realm."

Speaking of this, Meliana narrowed her eyes and smiled: "The Atumen Realm is the realm of gods and belongs to Atumen, the Lord of the Sun. This is a benevolent god and the most hated and feared god by the great demons. I have to go there to recuperate for a while.”

Rosen was curious again: "Then why is our place called the Derutan Realm?"

"Because this place used to be the plane of the Lord of Truth, Dritan, but for some reason, Dritan disappeared and did not appear for five thousand years."

"He probably died. This is normal. After all, nothing exists forever in the world, and there are often fights between Void Demon Gods."

After a pause, Mediana said: "Duke, I want to get a safe place with a clean bath, delicious food, mellow wine, and clean clothes. Is that okay?"

"Of course, I will arrange it for you myself."

This succubus is a bit tough. Rosen hasn't found out her details yet, so he doesn't feel comfortable leaving it to others to deal with.
