Chapter 178

"What's… going on? What did you… do to me?" Kanae asked, wincing as she tried to fight whatever magic was holding her.

"I can't move either!" Arenade cried from behind.

"Neither can I… It must be coming from one of them," Esta said through clenched teeth.

"Quit screwing around!" Lady snapped at each of them and started shaking Arenade first. "We have these cunts cornered. Now isn't the time to get cold feet—"

Thick vines sprouted from Arenade's dryadic staff and entangled Lady, muzzling her mouth. She toppled to the ground. Sharp claws sliced her bindings to no avail until finally, they bound her completely in a cocoon.

Ambrosia and Labelle jumped onto the table. Triumphant smiles adorned their faces.

"Aw, so it doesn't work on the mutt? She must have a special skill that's protecting her," Labelle mused aloud, taking a seat on the edge of the table and dangling her tail in Lady's face.

"That wasn't me! The potions aren't working!" Arenade exclaimed.

"You mean your anti-succubus magic potions?" Ambrosia shot her an alluring and covetous look. "That's because this isn't succubus magic. I am a crowned Hypnotist. Ironic, isn't it? The gods have quite the sense of humor, bestowing upon me a class in which my race does better. After a time, however, I've found these class spells to be much more potent than a succubus'."

Crowned Hypnotist. The power to hypnotize and control people then? Damn it. Kanae cursed under her breath. This was what they get for not being more careful!

"Hey, sis. I'm getting hungry again. That sorceress wasn't enough. Can I have the high elf cattle?" Labelle asked.

"Be my guest, little sister." Ambrosia nodded.

Labelle whooped. She put down her lute and jumped off the table.

"Hold on, I never agreed to this!" Arenade yelled as the succubus landed next to her.

"Livestock don't have a say in anything. Now… Let's get a good look at these udders." Labelle undid the laces and knots until Arenade's dress dropped to her ankles. "Huuu! I've never seen tits this big before. Just how much milk are you storing inside these knockers?" She grabbed a handful and buried her face between them.

"I-I'll have you know… Kanae has done enough to me that I can resist even the likes of— ahh!"

Labelle knocked Arenade to the ground and pounced on her pussy like a starved wolf.

"Get away from Arenade! I'm not into cuckolding!" Kanae shouted.

"No— stop! Aahhh… I won't fall to… mmm… Supreme One, save me… It's so good… I'm cumming already! Ahhhhhhhh!" Arenade climaxed so hard, she squirted all over the floor.

"That desire you have for her is delectable." Ambrosia pinched Kanae's chin, guiding her gaze away from them and to stare into the blue eyes of desire.

High elven and succubus blood ran through the Mistress of Desire's veins. Although they were enemies, Kanae couldn't help but find her oppressively beautiful. Ambrosia stroked Kanae's arm with the back of her hand.

"You and I could be queens together," Ambrosia whispered seductively. "You can have whomever you want. These cattle you treasure so much? They can become your pets in a world ruled by succubi. Doesn't that sound lovely? Is that not something you desire?"

"That sounds great… but unfortunately for you, I'm selfish. This world's only big enough for one succubus queen, and that won't be you or your mother. Only me," Kanae said.

"We'll see about that." She sealed Kanae's lips with a deep, sensual kiss.

Unable to resist and commanded by the hypnotic hold, Kanae reciprocated. Their tongues wrestled together, tails coiled, and embraced in each other's arms. She melted in Ambrosia's grasp. For once, this might not be a succubus she could beat.

Maybe that's fine, Kanae thought.

Ambrosia guided Kanae's hand underneath her sheer vestments. She touched a very wet slit and a tiny nub. Stroking it drew a pleasurable sigh from the Mistress of Desire. Kanae wanted to hear more of it. She pressed two fingers into the soaking cunt, and Ambrosia did the same for her. They fingered each other amidst the chorus of Arenade's moans, and Esta and Lady's desperate struggling.

"Your skin is soft like silk. Your lips are like pillows against mine. Be mine. Be my demon queen. Desire me and only me. Let me desire you in return," Ambrosia said between gasps.

Kanae thrusted her fingers deeper into Ambrosia's pussy, causing the succubus to throw her head back in ecstasy. She proceeded to kiss her sensitive neck.

"Master… don't… fall for her seduction…" Esta managed to say past a stiff jaw.

Lady chewed through the bindings around her mouth. "Tch… A succubus whore through and through!"

I want to resist, but everything is turning white with pleasure. Ambrosia is the better succubus. I just can't resist. I don't want to…

"Looks like it's going to take the greatest necromancer in the world to save the day!" Edina boomed.

Ambrosia flew back to avoid being crushed by a death knight. A second death knight tried to snatch Labelle off Arenade, but she vaulted away and picked up her lute.

"E-Edina?!" Kanae glanced back to find the squirreling necromancer walking down the tunnel.

"What… took you…" Arenade muttered, her legs twitching uncontrollably.

"I figured you guys needed help. We're the original three, remember? Besides, there's no damn way I'm passing up an opportunity to raise a powerful succubus from the dead." Edina grinned.

"Putrid necromancer. Why haven't you fallen under my control? Could it be…" Ambrosia squinted hard.

"That's right," she began. "I'm undead, and undeads aren't affected by any kind of control magic."

Kanae, Arenade, and Esta's jaws hit the floor.

"You're… undead?" Kanae didn't know what else to say.

"It happened the moment I manifested the Pillar of the Damned. I've been cursed with the Death Attribute, meaning I'm as dead and alive as the things I summon. Sorry for not telling you guys earlier." Edina looked over her shoulder at them and offered a sad smile.

"Undead or not. You're in over your head in this fight, baby. I still haven't had my fill of that cattle behind you yet, now buzz off!" Labelle performed a riff on her lute, firing vibrations so powerful that they distorted the space.

Both death knights fell in line, taking the brunt of the blow. Violent ripples tore off pieces of their armor, but both remained standing. They parted open to let Edina throw a bone-spear. It plunged into the lute and snapped the strings.

"How do ya like them acorns?" Edina smirked.

"Ah, fuck! Alright, I gotta hand it to you. That was pretty fucking metal but fuck! There goes another one of my favorite instruments!" Labelle hurled the broken lute away in fury.

"No matter. Let's see how you handle facing your own cattle friends." Ambrosia compelled Arenade and Esta to turn their weapons on Edina.

"You've gotta be kidding me!" The necromancer threw her hands up.

Before either of them attacked, Ambrosia stumbled backwards. Labelle caught her sister and offered a shoulder to lean on.

Suddenly, Kanae and the others regained control of their bodies.

"All good in the head, buddy?" Edina asked.

"Thanks to you. We still need to have a talk about you being undead now, but until then… Loks like someone's running out of juice. What's the matter? Haven't had much of a good meal down here? Us, on the other hand…" Kanae lifted a taunting gaze at the weakened Mistress of Desire and stepped aside to let Arenade through, patting her on the back to infuse her with Bond.

The infuriated high elf priest stomped ahead with a giant mallet made of holy energies. "How dare you… make someone such as my divine self soil myself?! I'M SO PISSED OFF, THE ONLY WAY I'LL CALM DOWN IS FLATTENING YOU TO THE GROUND! HOLY ARMAMENT: BIG FUCKING HAMMER!"

Everyone else stayed back and watched as Arenade pummeled the entire room, chasing after Ambrosia and Labelle. Chairs went flying. The table broke in multiple places. The chandelier crashed to the ground. It was looking like she would actually beat them. Arenade swung hard and fast. She continued to miss until one hit struck Ambrosia, sending her into the wall.

"Sis! You cattle bitch…" Labelle panicked.

"Not so tough now that you aren't between my legs?" Arenade asked menacingly.

Labelle picked up her broken lute, bit down on the strings, and pulled it taut. She struck the chords and created vibrations that blasted Arenade back, then made a run for it to pick Ambrosia up.

"Damn it, sis. I told you to eat the sorceress when I caught her…" Labelle muttered.

"And let you starve, my sweet little sister?" Ambrosia placed a hand on Labelle's cheek.

"Amby… Not here— mmph… chuu!"

Kanae and her companions were taken aback as the Queen-Mother's daughters started making out with each other. The two went at it like they were in their own little world, sucking on the other's tongues and lips.

"Ahem! I think we're in the middle of something?" Kanae cleared her throat and fought the urge to join them.

"What is it?" Ambrosia sighed like she couldn't be bothered to answer.

"We all know you're beat, but before we take you in, I have some questions about the Queen-Mother: why now? You're telling me you laid in wait all these years, building up a force underground… all to take revenge on Charron for genociding the succubus race?" she asked.

"You sound unconvinced." Labelle scoffed, nuzzling into Ambrosia's neck.

"I am. Because even though Charron played a part in it, so did Radevic. But the Queen-Mother isn't sending a succubus force or her daughters there, are they? No. You're going to Artaggon instead, even though it would've been easier to take over and enslave Aidenhall first? I think there's another reason you're not telling me."

"When did you figure all that out, Master?" Esta asked.

It all began with Gretchen's rebellion.

"Just now. Aidenhall is at its weakest now more than ever, Even with the Commonwealth in the way. Charron found out. There's no way the Queen-Mother hasn't realized it yet. There has to be another reason why the Queen-Mother is so fixated on Artaggon and Charron," Kanae explained.

"I see we've underestimated you, Demon Queen Kanae." Ambrosia, with the help of Labelle, stood up and looked upon Kanae with newfound respect. "It is true. Even now, we do not see the Commonwealth and Radevic as a threat. Hilde, though you defeated her, gave us a glimpse into your strength. Compared to the cattle across the sea and Lord Charron's forces, your cattle nations are but an annoying buzzing gnat, not worth a glance over. So says Mother. I at least find you intriguing. Our true aim is Artaggon's swift fall, and to unite our Mother with my Father in a matrimonious union once again."

"Again?" Kanae, Arenade, Lady, and Esta blinked absentmindedly.

"What am I missing? Someone fill me in!" Edina waved a hand in their faces.

"H-Hold on. When you say 'Father' do you mean Charron?" Arenade asked slowly.

Ambrosia nodded and brushed her golden hair. "Can you see our likeness? Well, it may not be readily noticeable. Lord Charron's features have changed much, but his high elven blood runs through me."

Kanae rubbed her forehead until Arenade yanked her off to the side and away from the others.

"Y-You fingered my niece!" Arenade grabbed Kanae by the shoulders.

"Your niece fingered me!" Kanae retorted. "How was I supposed to know you were family? Though… I'm beginning to see the resemblances… I guess Ambrosia hasn't noticed you're related yet— Actually, what I want to know is when did your brother bone a succubus queen?!"

"Hells if I know! Well… I probably do but the Supreme One put a memory lock in my brain, remember?"

They returned to the rest of the group to confront Ambrosia.

"You can't just drop a bombshell on us like that!" Kanae yelled.

"Yeah! What are we supposed to think now?" Arenade angrily shook her fist.

"How about the greatest threat to both of us escaping with the dwarven hunk of metal?" Labelle pointed past them.

Lady was missing. The female automaton was missing.

They followed Labelle's finger down the tunnel, where Lady was racing away at breakneck speeds with the automaton.

"You snooze, you lose. Don't take this personally! We were always going to betray each other, so I just did it first!" Lady flashed a toothy grin.

"Damn it!" Kanae stomped a broken chair into smaller pieces, then glared at the two Mistresses. "You're getting off lucky today."

"What? We're leaving 'em?" Edina asked.

"We gotta go after Lady. Come on!" she hurried them.

Esta hoisted the still unconscious Eliza into her arms, and they took off into the tunnel. The hellhound was fast. They weren't gaining on her at all. Kanae cast Transfer Mana to the sorceress, and she slowly stirred awake.

"Nngh… I hate the most terrible dream… I escaped sex bots only to end up in the clutches of a succubus," Eliza murmured.

"You were, and we aren't out of the woods yet! Get a teleportation pellet ready. Once we catch Lady and blow up the aqueduct, we're getting out of here," Kanae said.

They exited the central factory to a mountain of undead and sex bot corpses. The battle still raged on. It was a miracle that Edina didn't look at all tired or out of mana.

Eliza jumped off Esta's arms and onto her flying broom. She headed straight for the water channels above Ha'Vavish.

"We need to get Lady. Now!" Kanae cast Bond on her remaining companions.

Dwarven automatons were hot on their trail. Kanae and Arenade flew high to chase after Lady from the sky. Meanwhile, Esta and Edina stayed on the ground to keep automatons off their backs.

Explosions rocked the entire city. Water gushed from the now-broken aqueducts, flooding the factory below and washing away automatons and undeads alike.

"There!" Arenade directed Kanae's attention to Lady, who was closing in on the residential section of Ha'Vavish.

Demon cultists arranged in a circle were performing a ritual spell. Kanae searched her memories and was reminded of the ones in front of Duke Kroenig's manor that Lady was using. They were going to escape with that.

Kanae struck out with Lust and snatched Lady's ankles, tripping her to the ground. The female automaton body fell away from her grasp. When the hellhound got up, Arenade dove in—

"I still need to beat out my frustration from earlier, so you'll have to do!" Arenade slammed into Lady with the big fucking hammer, knocking through buildings after buildings.

"K… Kanaaeeee! I'm never teaming up with you again—" Lady landed in the circle, and it activated to teleport her and her forces away.

"That was too close…" Kanae picked up the automaton.

Curiosity got the better of her, and she squeezed its breasts. Supple, slightly firm, but very bouncy.

"Seriously?" Arenade folded her arms.

"S-Sorry!" Kanae stopped groping it and blushed.

"H-Hey! Where's Eliza? We need to fucking leave, because squirrelings aren't great swimmers!" Edina yelled.

"This is a terrible time to be reminded of my brother throwing me into the ocean as a child!" Esta was holding Edina like a bag under her arm, running away from a massive tsunami of water and automatons.

"Uh, oh." Kanae and Arenade sputtered as the wave loomed over them.

"Stick close!" Eliza swooped in with a teleportation pellet in hand, but when she flicked it to the ground, nothing happened.

Everyone traded glances with each other. Their eyes fell solely on the automaton.

"The meisterium! It's anti-magic is preventing the pellet from working!" Eliza exclaimed.

"Sh-Should I get rid of it?!" Kanae asked.

"Yes!" they screamed at her.

Kanae hurled the automaton. But because it was much heavier than a person, it didn't go very far. However, the pellet activated. A portal sucked everyone in before the tsunami washed them away.

They fell to the hard floorboards, soaked to the bones from the water that came with them.

"Get off me!" Arenade kicked a sex bot humping her leg and smashed it with the holy hammer.

"If I had a coin for every time we were nearly doomed by an ancient dwarven city, I would have two coins. Which is not a lot, but it is weird that it happened twice. Just me?" Eliza sighed, wringing the water from her hair.

"Blegh… I think I got millenia old stagnant water in my mouth…" Edina wiped her tongue.

Kanae planted a hand on Edina's shoulder.

"Nice save back there." Kanae smiled.

"Promised ya I wouldn't disappear, right?" Edina snickered and clasped Kanae's hand.

"Master, it looks like the automaton teleported with us after all." Esta drew their attention to the soaked female automaton, lying in a pool of water.

Despite having anti-magic properties, it still came with them. Maybe it was a proximity issue. First things first. They carried the automaton out of the Arcen room. Its presence had shut down power. Once it was gone, magic flowed freely through the floor again, and they were able to teleport long-distance back to Aidenhall.

Everyone gathered around the automaton in Eliza's workshop.

"So… This is a sex bot? Its entire purpose is to have sex with you?" Edina asked.

"We think so. If it was made by the dwarves, then it must be." Eliza agreed.

The longer Kanae stared at the empty compartment in its chest, the more her mind wandered until she recalled the strange orb. She fished it out of her satchel and held it near the automaton's chest. It looked like it fit perfectly.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you," Arenade warned. "Remember the army of those ungodly things trying to rape us?"

"Yeah, but I'd probably like it." Kanae shrugged.

The entire party shot her the stink-eye.

"Okay, okay! Fine. I'll just put this away—" It slipped from her hand.

Everyone gasped. The orb ran circles around the compartment's edge. They hesitated to grab it, fearful of accidentally shoving it in. Kanae tried to snatch it, only to unwittingly knock the orb into place.

"You slut! You did that on purpose!" Arenade choked Kanae with both hands.

"Ack— I swear… I didn't… You're going to kill me—"

A burst of energy blew everyone back. Books and trinkets clattered off the shelves. Smoke billowed from the automaton. It came to life and sat upright, staring right at them.

They drew their weapons, ready to dismantle the rapey sex bot into smithereens until it shielded herself.

"Wait, wait, wait! Whatever I did, I'm sorry! Please… don't hurt me," she pleaded fearfully.

Everyone stood there, completely stunned.

"Is it just me, or is this one different? The others were all sex and no talk, right?" Arenade asked.

"The other sex bots didn't show any signs of self-preservation," Eliza said.

"No, they didn't." Kanae shook her head slowly, eyes still trained on the living automaton. "But this one does."
