Chapter 641 - 586: I Want To Stay Here (1/2)

Unfortunately for Fariya, her seductive words didn't work on Arthur, who tightened the threads around the succubus' neck, making her cough and gasp for breath. Only after half a minute did he loosen the unbreakable threads, leaving the woman red-faced and barely able to remain conscious.

”J—jeez… why are you so violent?”

Even after all of that, Fariya maintained her non-aggressive attitude as her eyes seemed to shine when looking at the goblin, or more precisely, the parasite hiding within.

”Stop acting like that. You can fool everyone but me, after all, you're just a v.i.r.g.i.n.”

Once she heard the last word, the succubus twitched and her pupils contracted, but only momentarily as she regained her cool faster than ever. A charming smile was plastered on Fariya's peerless face, her pink tongue ran over her rosy lips before she spoke again:

”I never meant to fool you… I actually need and want your help.”

”…”

Arthur didn't speak and only watched at her with a piercing gaze. His silence allowed the succubus to explain her words more properly and state the reason of her non hostility toward a total stranger.

”You may have noticed that a succubus working for Heaven is not a common thing.” She sat up into a more comfortable position while stretching her slender white legs and calibrating her breathing.

”I'm not guarding this hellhole because I want to, it's merely to pay a debt… a debt that's already been paid.”

Her countenance turned a little serious as she mumbled a few incoherent curses before continuing: ”I was supposed to guard the second level for forty years but double that amount passed yet they still wouldn't let me go.” She let out a long helpless sigh while unconsciously clenching her bound hand: ”I only requested to leave once but the damned warden shamelessly refused. Knowing his sick personality, I just remained here, waiting for an opportunity.”

Her eyes locked onto Arthur, who said back: ”And why are you telling me all of this? Did you think you'll gain my trust with this?”

”Not at all. You came here for a reason and, undoubtedly, you'll leave soon. Just… when you're planning your prison break, take me along. I can be of great help, I even know everything about this place.”

She pursued her lips while smiling again: ”Actually, I was going to rely on the prisoners of the last floor but it's too risky as they're wildly uncontrollable.”

”I'm not helping you.”

Arthur rejected her almost immediately, causing Fariya to pout and sulk.

”Don't be so fast to reject. It doesn't take a genius to know that you're a parasite, though a bit special than the rest. You can use Buo's telekinesis so you can also use his Slavery Magic. I'm willing to become your slave until we leave, that way, I won't betray you or lie to you.”

Hearing this, Arthur was genuinely surprised as becoming a slave isn't as simple as on Astria. Buo Buo's slavery magic is strict and if the slave even thinks of betrayal, the master will immediately know. Moreover, it's permanent unless the master removes it personally so by becoming his slave, it'll doom her fate.

'To think she's willing to become my slave just to leave.'

”Master, she's really an intelligent woman. She's fully aware that becoming your slave is much better than staying here, even if you go back on your word and keep her as a slave forever.”

'Do you think she's worth the trouble?'

”Definitely. There's literally nothing to lose if she becomes your slave… well, Madam Lucy must not catch wind of this though.”

Arthur marched toward the bound succubus as his appearance returned to the original one, a tall middle-aged male human with grey and dark hair. His eye was pulsating with a blue light as it landed on the devilish figure of the succubus, who didn't hide her s.e.xy curves or her soft and snow-white skin.

”You're willing to sell yourself just to leave?”

Fariya scoffed and retorted: ”Sell myself? I'd do much worse just to get out. Once they don't need me anymore, the things they'll do to a Demon is far worse than you think. Becoming your slave isn't a bad outcome, in my point of view.”

She crawled closer to the motionless Arthur standing straight and right next to the bed. ”So this is what you look like. Mmmh, I must say that my decision couldn't be more perfect.”

She winked at him but he didn't react at all and instead, raised his hand and made a small pulling motion with his index, causing Fariya to start groaning from the abrupt and agonizing pain. She felt an ominous energy lurking inside of her body and severely weakening her.

”Don't forget that, in addition to the slave mark you're going to get, this is still inside of you and it's more potent than Buo's slavery magic.”

Although still in pain, Fariya giggled and said back: ”Yes… you can be inside of me as much as you want.”

Arthur coldly snorted and put his hand above her head before a grey floating rune emanated from his palm and slowly entered the succubus' head. It didn't cause her any pain but she could feel a heavy feeling in her consciousness and around her heart and brain. This uncomfortable feeling lasted only for a short few seconds a cool and refreshing feeling surged inside of the woman.

As she became his slave, she was automatically granted the system, and her stats dramatically increase, to the point that Fariya remained shocked for half a minute.

Arthur got most of his power thanks to his sky-high stats, which defies logic. Any person's stats shouldn't surpass the one billion mark, what makes them strong are their mastered techniques, powerful skills, pure and unique energy essence, or godly artifacts. In Arthur's case, he could content again Exalted Gods because his stats are so absurdly high that his body is able to demonstrate strength unlike any other.

Now that Fariya became his slave, she gained 5% of his stats, which is still a staggering amount.

After all that happened inside the tower and the several power-ups and possessions he did, the lowest main stats of Arthur was around 14Billion points and 5% of that is 700 million. For the succubus, it's like her body became twice or thrice faster, stronger, and more resistant. It's definitely a huge power-up which now allows her to fight 3rd stage Exalted Gods, possibly even those at the Transcendent Stage.
