Chapter 38: Chapter 38: A Succubus Summon Is Really Too Much to Handle
In Fang Xiu’s hand was a Demon Core glowing with blue light.
This was the reward the principal had given him earlier.
A Tier Three Demon Core that came with a Skill.
Unfortunately, it was an Ice Attribute Demon Core. For Fang Xiu, if he absorbed it, the power of the acquired Skill would be greatly diminished.
He hadn’t planned on absorbing it anyway.
"This is a Tier Three Ice Attribute Demon Core with a Skill. I’ll trade you for it!"
Fang Xiu smiled and handed the Demon Core to Chu Qingxue.
Hearing this, Chu Qingxue was taken aback.
Then she shook her head. "No, I can’t take this!"
A Tier Three Demon Core was already comparable in value to her ring.
Let alone one that came with a Skill.
It was valuable enough to be traded for ten rings, not just one.
"I was planning to sell this thing anyway. It just so happens to be perfect for you."
Chu Qingxue was an Ice Attribute Awakened.
Whatever Skill this Demon Core carried, it would be extremely suitable for her.
Besides, if Chu Qingxue absorbed it, she would be able to unleash one hundred percent of its power.
"This... How about I give you a few more rings?"
Chu Qingxue did want this Demon Core.
After all, a Tier Three Demon Core with a Skill was very hard to find.
Especially one with an Ice Attribute that suited her.
Even when she asked at the shop that sold the Magic Staff, they didn’t have one and only said they’d keep an eye out for her.
Now, one had appeared right in front of her, and Chu Qingxue was tempted.
With a bit more Cultivation, she would reach Level 10. Then she could absorb it directly and obtain her second Skill.
After all, the faster one acquired a Skill, the better.
"No need. The one ring is enough. In the future, just help me keep an eye out for a Demon Core that’s right for me."
Fang Xiu shook his head, took Chu Qingxue’s hand, and placed the Tier Three Demon Core in her palm.
This intimate gesture made Chu Qingxue’s cheeks blush slightly.
For so many years, she had always maintained a cold and aloof image; no man had ever dared to be so forward with her.
But when Chu Qingxue looked at Fang Xiu’s expression, it was clearly so sincere. He didn’t seem to be acting, nor did he seem to be deliberately taking advantage of her.
"I... Alright!"
Chu Qingxue thought for a moment. She really had no reason to refuse, so she agreed.
"Okay, I’ll be going then. See you later!"
Fang Xiu nodded slightly.
’Although the value of a Tier Three Demon Core with a Skill is definitely higher than this ring, that applies to an ordinary ring. But the one in my hand has been targeted by the Goddess of Beauty. After the Sacrifice, no matter what I get—even if it’s trash in the eyes of the Deities—its value will definitely exceed that of a Tier Three Demon Core with a Skill.’
This was why Fang Xiu had given the Demon Core to Chu Qingxue so readily.
At that moment, Chu Qingxue looked at the Demon Core in her hand, wisps of icy mist swirling around it.
CLENCH!
Chu Qingxue tightened her grip on the Demon Core and watched Fang Xiu’s departing figure in the distance.
The corners of her mouth curved into a faint smile.
If anyone had seen this smile, they would have been absolutely stunned.
Who had ever seen the perpetually cold and aloof Chu Qingxue look like this?
Even at home, Chu Qingxue was relatively reserved.
Only when she was alone did she allow her other emotions to surface.
Being reserved wasn’t the same as being arrogant. Chu Qingxue had her own private, girlish thoughts as well.
...
"Kajimi, let’s go!"
Fang Xiu went around to a spot where Chu Qingxue couldn’t see him.
Kajimi was sitting on a tree branch, swinging her legs. Hearing Fang Xiu call, she smiled and said, "Yes, Master!"
"Master, what happened to make you so happy?"
Seeing the smile on Fang Xiu’s face and hearing him hum a song, Kajimi asked curiously.
"Happy? Of course. I got a ring that can be used for a Sacrifice!"
Fang Xiu nodded.
He didn’t need to hide anything from Succubus Kajimi.
The Summoning Scroll had stated that Summoned Creatures would be forever loyal to their Summoner, in both body and Soul.
In other words, it was impossible for Kajimi to ever betray Fang Xiu.
He could tell her anything without worry.
"Wow! Then congratulations, Master!"
When she heard this, Kajimi seemed even more excited than Fang Xiu.
Perhaps for her, her Master’s increase in strength was also a joyous occasion.
This was absolute loyalty.
When you were sad, she felt worse than you.
When you were happy, she was more thrilled than you.
When you were angry, she wanted to kill for you.
"Mhm, but the Sacrifice will have to wait. For now, let’s go check things out over there."
Fang Xiu wasn’t in a hurry to perform the Sacrifice.
’In this world, although there are many Sacrificial Masters, who would have the guts to Sacrifice a synthetic material to the Deities? Anyone with such an idea would think they were crazy, even without others telling them so. Even if they dared, how many could guess correctly and Sacrifice it to the Goddess of Beauty?’
Only Fang Xiu could accomplish all this.
This was why Fang Xiu was in no rush.
It wouldn’t be too late to perform the Sacrifice after leaving the Gate World.
After all, this place was crowded with prying eyes—there were teachers and students around.
If he were discovered while performing the Sacrifice, it would inevitably make others jealous.
Although Fang Xiu wasn’t afraid—with Kajimi’s protection, it was no big deal.
But... it would be a hassle.
That’s right!
Fang Xiu hated trouble more than anything!
Soon, the two of them arrived at a more remote location.
There were no students, no teachers, and certainly no school beauties here.
There were only seven Star Claw Wolves.
"Tier Two. Perfect!"
Fang Xiu looked at the seven Star Claw Wolves before him, quite satisfied.
"Master, should I kill them?"
Kajimi asked, having once again sensed his intentions, though it was only a faint resonance.
"Mhm!"
Fang Xiu nodded slightly.
A red shadow, like a bewitching phantom, appeared before the seven Star Claw Wolves.
When she raised her hand, before the Star Claw Wolves could even react, they were trapped by chains.
She flapped her wings and slowly ascended into the air.
Watching from behind, Fang Xiu found a different kind of beauty in the sight.
It was just that when she flew up in her skirt, the skirt didn’t flip up.
But even so, now that she was in the sky, what was there that he couldn’t see?
Just then, Kajimi, who was floating in mid-air, suddenly turned her head and glanced at Fang Xiu.
"Ahem!"
’She must have sensed it.’
Fang Xiu could only give an awkward cough and look away toward the seven Star Claw Wolves.
But Kajimi wasn’t angry. She just gave Fang Xiu a smile full of Charm.
’Gulp! Damn, a Succubus Summoned Creature... I really can’t handle this!’
Fang Xiu lamented internally.
Just then, Kajimi made her move. Her body transformed into a tornado as she swept toward the seven Star Claw Wolves.
SHINK! SHINK!
The sound of sharp blades slicing through fur was particularly piercing in the quiet, empty space.
At that moment, the seven Star Claw Wolves, amidst a spray of hot blood... flew into the air, torn to pieces!
