System's POV

“Master’s still not here?” Derek asked as soon as he entered the conference room. “I’ve been itching to see what he looks like as a girl.”

Everyone, including Camzotz and Zapar, were already there, waiting for Zion to arrive.

Roland smirked. “I imagine Zion—errr, Zia would just look like Zion with longer hair. I just can’t think of her lady version as anything else but that.”

“You lack imagination,” Vincent commented. “What if he turned out to be this busty girl who has a D-Cup.”

“… Dude, you disgust me.” Roland couldn’t help but look at Vincent as if he was some kind of pervert.

No matter how hard he tried to imagine it, he just couldn’t see a female version of Zion with a D-Cup.

But to be fair, he only had a very vague understanding about the different cup sizes when it came to female’s underwear.

His little sister, who was two years younger than him, had once asked him to accompany him to the women’s underwear shop.

After that incident, he never went shopping with her again.

Char and Princess Laventia, as well as the other Succubi, had also gathered inside the conference room.

Since they would be returning to the City of Velmusa today, they would be bringing Zion and Zapar with them.

Also, after being told that Zion would come with them as a succubus, Princess Laventia had long looked forward to seeing what he would look like.

Suddenly, Camazotz and Zapar perked up and glanced at the door.

“He’s here,” Camazotz said, prompting everyone to look at the door at the same time.

When the door finally opened, Vincent and Derek were ready to tease Zion to oblivion.

However, their prepared words were immediately stuck in their throat as their eyes landed at the young lady who appeared before them.

Roland, Clark, and Joshua looked at Zia in a daze, while Vincent and Derek looked like they had stopped breathing completely.

Char, Princess Laventia, and the other Succubi were just as shocked, and the princess even pointed at the newcomer with disbelief.

“Who are you?” Princess Laventia had used all of her willpower to break out of her daze just so she could ask this question.

“Zion Leventis,” the young lady replied innocently. “Who else?”

A pin-drop silence descended upon the room, soon broken by Derek, who stood up and walked toward the young lady whose beauty halted his breath.

“Master, I will serve you for life,” Derek declared as he knelt down like a knight in front of Zia. “From now on, I will live only for your sake.”

Zia didn’t know if she should be amused or not at her disciple’s sudden declaration.

This wasn’t the first time Derek had done such a thing.

He had done it in the past as a way to gain Zion’s approval to date his sister, Shasha. But Thirteen only kicked the bastard, making sure that he wouldn’t do such a thing again.

This time, Thirteen ignored him and walked toward the chair where she usually sat.

Sherry followed behind her, looking at everyone in the room with a smirk on her face.

‘I knew it,’ Sherry thought. ‘This is the reaction I’ve expected to see.’

Roland and Clark, who were looking intensely at Zia as if they had fallen in love at first sight, suddenly felt a mind numbing pain that brought them back to their senses.

Char and Princess Laventia pinched their lovers’ waist, making sure that they stop looking like lovestruck fools at the beautiful succubus, whose beauty had surpassed their own.

“B-Cup,” Vincent finally managed to break free from his own daze, as he muttered, “but it’s still in its growth phase.”

After saying that, the teenage boy took out two cellphones—one to snap countless pictures, another to take Zia’s videos and capture her grace in motion.

Zia gave her former best friend a weird look and made a mental note to remind himself to confiscate his phone later.

Camazotz and Zapar weren’t as lovestruck as everyone in the room, but they had to admit that Thirteen’s Succubus Form was top notch.

“Okay, that’s enough,” Zia said. “Vincent, stop taking my pictures and videos.”

Hearing the seriousness in the young lady’s angelic voice, VIncent acted like a proper gentleman and made sure to send Penny some of the pictures, adding a caption, “my latest girlfriend.”

Just as he expected, Penny replied immediately, cursing Vincent for his dog’s luck for being able to meet such a beautiful lady.

Vincent’s partner in crime even insisted that he introduce Zia to her, so he could also get a chance to win her heart.

However, Vincent simply ignored him and put away his phone, using his blessed eyes to look at the beauty right before his eyes.

“Zapar, why haven’t you changed yet?” Thirteen asked. “We will be leaving today. The sooner, the better.”

“Changing faces is very easy for me,” Zapar replied before snapping his fingers. “Like so.”

A moment later, he transformed into a Succubus.

However, everyone noticed something that made them give Zapar a second look.

She looked pretty, but her beauty looked quite plain for a succubus. In fact, compared to any of the ladies inside the room, she could easily be forgotten because she didn’t stand out.

Understanding what they were thinking, Zapar chuckled and spoke his thoughts out loud.

“If I stand out too much like our beautiful Zia, I will not be able to do what I intended to do in the Jinn Army,” Zapar explained. “So this is the most ideal form that I can take. But this works perfectly to our advantage. With Zia taking the limelight, I will be able to work in the shadows without breaking a sweat.”

Thirteen understood what Zapar was going for, and even praised him for thinking far ahead.

After discussing the plan one last time, they finally left Casimir City after half an hour.

Roland watched the Succubi fly away, with Zia and Zapar accompanying them.

When all the boys were certain that Zia was truly gone, they all shifted their attention to Vincent and demanded that he share her photos and videos with them.

Joshua was just mildly interested, but he didn’t ask Vincent for the picture. He was smart and didn’t want any future trouble, especially now that he already had a girlfriend.

———

As they flew high above the sky, Princess Laventia couldn’t help but sneak glances at Zia, who was chatting amicably with Zapar.

She didn’t expect that Zion’s succubus form would be more beautiful than her, and Princess Aracelle, whom she had treated as a rival.

However, she just couldn’t push herself to compete with Zion because she felt like it would be her defeat as a woman if she really tried.

Even among Succubi, Zia stood out.

There was an effortless charm in the way she moved, spoke, and smiled that made even someone born as a succubus like Princess Laventia feel inadequate.

Her presence didn’t demand attention, it ensnared its audience. The Princess understood that even if there was a beauty contest, the moment Zia appeared, all the other contestants would be forgotten in an instant.

Zia turned her head slightly, catching Princess Laventia’s gaze mid-glance.

“You’ve been looking at me a lot, Princess,” she said with a playful smile. “Do I have something on my face?”

Princess Laventia coughed lightly and looked away. “No. You’re just… distracting.”

“I get that a lot lately,” Zia replied, resting her cheek on her hand. “I just hope I won’t catch the wrong attention when we arrive at the City of Velmusa.”

Zapar chuckled beside her. “I think it’s too late for that.”

The other Succubus, who were riding the giant manta ray with everyone, giggled in agreement to Zapar’s statement.

Princess Laventia, however, frowned. “Do you even understand what kind of effect you have on others in that form?”

Zia blinked innocently. “Nope.”

That one word, spoken so cheerfully, somehow irritated Laventia more than a thousand smug smiles could.

“You’re annoying,” Princess Laventia muttered, crossing her arms.

“Thank you,” Zia said, then leaned closer. “Coming from you, that’s basically a compliment.”

Princess Laventia clicked her tongue and looked away again, her cheeks faintly pink.

She always thought she was straight, but being with Zia made her feel like she didn’t mind swinging both ways if it was someone as beautiful as her.

———

A few hours later, the giant manta ray descended from the sky, as it headed toward the northeast area of the city, where the residence of the Velmoria Kingdom was located.

When they were very near their residences, Princess Laventia asked everyone to take flight because it would be best if they just flew to their destination from here.

The Guards, who recognized the Princess’ personal mount, immediately flew up to the sky to greet and escort her back to the residence.

But when they got close to her entourage, all of their eyes were drawn to one individual.

Zia.

The young lady landed gracefully beside Princess Laventia, her long hair flowing like a waterfall of ink, mesmerizing the spectators who laid their eyes on her.

Whispers broke out almost instantly.

“Who is she?”

“A new candidate for the Queen’s court?”

“She’s not from our city… is she from another House?”

“Could she be… royalty?”

“Wait, there’s a rumor that Princess Xynalia and Princess Laventia had a little sister whom they’ve been keeping a secret from the public. Is that perhaps her?”

The murmur grew louder as Princess Laventia and her entourage walked toward the main entrance of their residence.

Waiting for them there was none other than Princess Xynalia, who hurriedly came to the entrance to welcome her sister’s return to their temporary home.

However, she froze in place when she saw Zia.

Although this was her first time seeing Zia, her heart started to beat wildly inside her chest.

But not for the same reasons as the succubus who was watching the beautiful lady walk towards her direction.

Princess Xynalia had secretly placed a tracking mark on Zion, which couldn’t be detected by ordinary means.

And to her surprise, she was seeing this same mark on the young lady, who was looking at her with a faint smile on her angelic face.
