Rose shook her head: "No, actually I want to know... why you know about 'humans'."
On my way here, almost none of the demons I encountered knew anything about 'humans'.
"Humans... no, we don't know exactly what kind of creatures humans are, we just know that they are very weak compared to the demons."
"We know all the areas where succubi are found, but only by the local names; we have only a basic understanding of the local species." The succubus explained calmly, her face expressionless.
"Yes, they were very weak compared to the demons, but that was in the past."
Human beings are growing at an incredible rate.
Back when I was living a normal life, humans couldn't even defeat a low-level small demon.
"You need excellent equipment to deal with even the lowest level of demons."
but……
Humans who used to die even when fighting the lowest-ranking demons have grown to the point where they can kill a border baron in just a few months.
Rose said in a stern voice, frowning as she continued;
"I don't know how far humans have grown, but their progress is too fast. I estimate that they will become a problem for the demons in the near future."
I felt... that the demon race's higher-ups needed to take this matter seriously, which is why I met with the Little Demon King.
However, while Rose was speaking, she did not notice that the succubus's pupils narrowed almost imperceptibly before returning to normal.
The succubus spoke up: "Is that so? But I don't think a lowly race can cause any trouble for the demon race."
Dragons, elves, orcs, dwarves, and goblins were all destroyed in the war.
I don't think what you're saying is stronger than those races. (Nine)
“This…” Rose was taken aback at first.
These are races that only exist in mythology!
Did this land really exist?!
She didn't know exactly how strong those races were, but based on her impressions from mythology, they must have been stronger than humans.
But! 5
“Perhaps the races you mentioned are all very strong, but I think that if these humans were given a few more years, they would definitely become a race capable of threatening the demons,” Rose said earnestly.
"It poses no threat to the Demon King, nor can it be considered a threat," the succubus shook her head.
"..."
Rose was taken aback again, then lowered her head with an awkward smile and whispered;
"...Yes, if it doesn't threaten the Demon King, then what kind of threat is it?"
Sure enough, this isn't something a nobody like me should care about, is it?
Actually, she had thought about this a long time ago.
What is she among the demons?
There are countless beings among the demons who are more powerful and have stronger magic than her.
After witnessing the vastness of the demon realm, she suddenly realized that her fear of humans was not due to any foresight.
Rather, it's simply that humanity has been overestimated.
If those humans were to join the demon race, what would they amount to in the face of such a large and powerful demon race?
Not to mention, the highest level of the demon race is the Demon King!
He conquered the world, the invincible demon king!
Ultimately, wouldn't it be better to just tell this to some noble of the demon race?
As for traveling all the way to find the Little Demon King, do you even find yourself ridiculous?
It's like going to the king's castle and kneeling in front of the gate so that he can send his army to crush an insect.
Not only do others think she's stupid, but she herself thinks she's stupid.
She had previously mistakenly believed that humans could pose a threat to the demons, but she had not yet seen a more powerful demon and underestimated the overall strength of the demons.
And now...
"Never mind, thank you."
I have no intention of seeing the Little Demon King now.
"This is none of her business, someone of her stature." Rose smiled and looked at the succubus beside her.
"But... I'm really interested!"
A childish voice rang in both of Rose's ears simultaneously, as if the same person were speaking to both of them at the same time.
At the same instant, the scenery in Rose's eyes changed.
One moment she was walking on the streets of the succubus city, the next she was standing in a grand hall.
Tall, ivory-white stone pillars, carved with intricate patterns, stand upright, supporting the massive, translucent blue dome through which light streams into the main hall. For the demonic architecture, which is generally characterized by a somber style, this place feels like a blue sky reminiscent of the human world.
White fireballs burned inside the hall, moving around it in a certain pattern, bringing a soft white light to the hall, the interplay of light and shadow like a dream.
There is no elaborate decoration here, only the throne in the center of the circular dome, which sits straight down in the middle of the hall.
In the middle of the throne, who is sitting?
Rose could see that it was a little girl.
She can see the other person's hair and their face.
but……
But you can't see it.
It's like the moment someone enters your field of vision, your memory of them is erased from your mind. Even though you're looking directly at them, you can still picture them in your mind.
It left only a superficial impression;
So beautiful, she's a very pretty girl.
If the other person is a succubus, she will probably grow up to be the most beautiful succubus, right?
However, in the next instant—
"Boom!"
Rose's legs went weak, and she knelt down uncontrollably.
The next instant after the exclamation, an irresistible fear surged from the depths of my soul!
what is that?
do not know.
Because Seven Roses was completely unable to think, she just lowered her head and knelt stiffly on the ground, every inch of her skin and every muscle on her body screaming and trembling.
My mind was completely blank.
"Hehe~~ He clearly inquires about me every day, but when he sees me, he kneels on the ground and doesn't dare to move. Isn't that hilarious~~?"
Succubi from human territory, so weak! Whether it's their physical body, magical power, or mental strength, they have absolutely nothing to offer.
Trash succubi? Insect succubi? Tell me everything you know about those inferior races called 'humans,' okay?
Everything~ Everything~ Everything you know!
Tell me everything!
The moment the words left her lips, Rose suddenly felt a buzzing sound in her brain.
Before she could even think, her mouth seemed to be controlled by someone else, and she couldn't stop talking.
"Yes, Little Demon King."
Rose knew she absolutely didn't want to say that at that moment, but her mouth was completely out of her control.
Then she began to tell stories about all of humanity, starting from her earliest memories.
But at first, she had no idea that what followed would be a terrifying nightmare.
Her brain wasn't working, but her mouth was automatically organizing language, telling the girl in front of her everything she knew, down to the smallest detail, about whom she couldn't remember any face.
After a day, then two, her voice began to hoarse. Even though succubi possessed physical abilities far exceeding those of humans, they couldn't speak for so long continuously.
Over three or four days, she recounted many things she herself couldn't remember clearly, revealing what had happened in her life.
However, she felt that her mouth no longer belonged to her, and even though she was hoarse, she continued to say everything she knew.
Day 5, Day 6, Day 7.
Rose was on the verge of collapse; tears streamed down her face, but her hoarse voice never stopped.
She had completely lost her voice and could no longer speak.
"You're already done with just a little bit? What a useless succubus!"
But there are many other interesting things too!
"I'll grant you permission to recover~~"
Suddenly, Rose felt a warmth spread through her body, and her previously mute throat began to regain its voice.
But this was not a reward for her.
Because, whether before or after her recovery, her mouth never stopped moving.
It's like... being trapped in a cursed fairy tale.
She put on the red dancing shoes that she could never stop.
Chapter 127 The Death of Rose
Nine days? Ten days? Half a month?
Rose didn’t know how long she had been talking. Even though her mind had completely collapsed and nothing was left in her brain, her mouth showed no sign of stopping.
"...After entering the depths of the demon realm, I never heard any more rumors about humans."
The sound stopped abruptly, as if it had been abruptly cut off.
