Chapter 24: Save Me, Master!
Rustle, rustle, rustle—
While Lilith was immersed in the internal tug-of-war between "it feels so good to have the Demon Lord rub my head" and "could I really be a useless succubus?", the dense vibration of wings came from the distance again.
This time there were even more, a good twenty or thirty giant White Human-Faced Moths, swarming over the narrow labyrinth corridor.
"Again?"
Seeing this, Lilith's gaze sharpened.
To cover up her loss of composure from being petted like a pet just now, and to reclaim her dignity as a powerful expert, she decided to strike again!
"Hmph, things that don't know the meaning of death."
Saying so, Lilith tapped her toes, the Succubus Wings behind her snapped open, and she turned into a streak of black light and rushed out—[Shadow Raid].
Swish, swish, swish—
Black Demonic Blades flew everywhere. As her playful heart-shaped tail drew countless blades in the air, Lilith shuttled back and forth through the monster swarm, her posture elegant yet lethal.
Every strike hit a vital point accurately. The moths fell one after another like dumplings into a pot, exploding into clusters of white 'fragments'.
"Hahahaha!"
Feeling the powerful strength of this body, Lilith was killing with high spirits, her lips already curling up uncontrollably:
"A bunch of small fry!"
"Is this the pleasure of mowing down grass? This feels amazing!"
"I'm freaking invincible!"
Thinking this, the number of monsters before her eyes was already down to a handful;
However, just as Lilith finished off the last moth and was about to strike a cool pose to show off her dashing charm... Buzz—
A moth of particularly massive size and an even more deathly pale color appeared silently above her head!
"There's another one?"
As a Ninth Rank Peak succubus, how could Lilith fear a sneak attack from such a monster?
She just smiled disdainfully and gave a casual flick—her skin reflected the glow of the labyrinth walls, her crystal-clear forearms so fair, like a tub of creamy ice cream that had just had its lid opened, emitting a cool milky fragrance~
Then, a pitch-black whip lashed out mercilessly! With a terrifying sound of breaking wind, Lilith's eyes turned blood-red, and she couldn't help but shout in her heart:
"Just die!"
Whoosh—
From the surface, the whip definitely hit the enemy.
However.
The expected explosion or cutting did not happen.
The moment the giant moth was hit, a white light suddenly appeared! Its body actually seemed to unbuckle, disintegrating instantly!
Crash—
It didn't turn into fragments, but transformed into countless incredibly tough white bandages!
So it wasn't a creature at all, but a mimicry trap... no, to be precise, all the moths killed so far were mimicry traps made of bandages!
"What the hell is this?!"
Lilith was slightly stunned.
But before she could react, the bandages formed from the giant moth, as well as the moth 'fragments' scattered on the ground, like venomous snakes with their own consciousness, "whooshed" up and wrapped around her body!
It was too fast to react!
Swish— Swish— Swish—
In the blink of an eye, Lilith's hands, feet, and even that pair of cute little wings were tightly bound.
"Mmm? What?!"
In a panic, Lilith tried to struggle, but these bandages were made of some unknown material; the more she struggled, the tighter they wound.
Seeing this, Asmodeus, standing not far away, frowned slightly. Seeming to sense Lilith's predicament, he raised his hand, wanting to help her clear away these annoying cloth strips.
"Don't move yet."
Asmodeus spoke very calmly, but Lilith completely ignored the Demon Lord's warning and continued to struggle:
"So... so tight... even my tail can't move..."
"Why do I always encounter these strange moves... Ugh! Don't wrap around my legs! I hate this!"
"Little Meow, don't move."
Asmodeus warned again, the Black Flames in his hand already rising quickly—actually, it wouldn't matter if he directly bailed Lilith out, mainly he was afraid of burning off Lilith's clothes.
But it was too late!
In the gap of Asmodeus's hesitation, the entire labyrinth suddenly shook violently!
Rumble—!
The labyrinth seemed to have come to life.
The ground, ceiling, and surrounding walls disintegrated instantly, turning into an overwhelming tsunami of bandages.
Then, the few bandages binding Lilith pulled back sharply. The massive force dragged her directly into a cave that had just formed on the wall. Lilith only saw that terrifying hole getting closer and closer. Before being pulled away, she only had time to shout in terror:
"Save me, Master—!"
"Hey!"
Bang—
Asmodeus was about to reach out to grab her.
But with a loud bang, countless layers of thick bandage walls closed again, completely isolating Asmodeus.
"Get lost!"
The Demon Lord gave a cold shout.
Terrifying Demonic Flames erupted from his palm, blasting right through the newly formed wall in just half a second!
But when Asmodeus passed through the wall and looked around, he found that his fiancée, that cute and fun little succubus... had actually disappeared just like that! Even the hole that originally existed on the wall had completely vanished.
"What's going on?"
"Where did she go?"
