I'm a forest ranger, why would I enslave a succubus?

Chapter 249: Horned Woman and Female Mage

"Is it illicit goods from the Heavenly Flower Country?"

The lady with horns at the back said doubtfully.

She came over.

She leaned her elbow on Rhodes' shoulder in a very familiar manner.

With his other hand, he took the dark pink magic ring from Ona's hand and looked at it carefully.

"The wiring inside is a bit crude, but the craftsmanship is indeed the same as that of the Heavenly Flower Kingdom."

"This little girl stuff isn't for you!"

Ona quickly took the ring back.

"Nonsense, all girls like these, and I'm no exception."

The Horned Lady smiled and patted Rhodes' shoulder: "Brother, am I right?"

Rhodes could feel the huge spiritual power in this person's body, which was at least above the eighth level.

At the same time, I also know that the other party is hinting that "I want it too."

He smiled and nodded.

No other substantive action.

Who are you? We are not familiar with each other. I will send it to you right away. I am very central air-conditioned, okay?

But the lady with ox horns obviously didn't understand the refusal implied in her smile.

She even put her arm around his shoulders.

A large, somewhat masculine face came up to him.

"You're so pretty, little one. Do you have any magical powers or treasures like charm? Why do I feel a little fond of you?"

Rhodes was stunned for a moment.

I immediately thought of one of my buff states.

【Charm of White Bull】

[Details: The original spiritual power hidden in the Minotaur's bloodline increases affinity with cattle-like creatures, and is more likely to be loved by married women.]

This was the buff he and Callister gained after purifying a minotaur skull filled with wronged souls.

“A small unintentional gain.”

He didn't say what it was, but he didn't hide it either.

"Like this, inhale—you smell so good, I feel something coming on just by smelling it, do you want to have sex with me?"

Rhodes' chin was lifted by thick fingers, and the warm breath almost hit his face.

The horned lady in front of him was very strong, even stronger than a normal male orc.

Normally, Rhodes has a high tolerance for a girl's body shape.

From land Nagas to female orcs, from deer people to halflings, they are all within his selection range.

But the one in front of me is not so good.

If it weren't for her curvy breasts and that big, macho face that looked like it was carved by a knife, Rhodes almost called her "Big Brother."

"Go away! You're scaring my guests!"

Before Rhodes could say anything, Ona appropriately rejected it for him.

She struggled to push the Horned Lady away.

With a look of dissatisfaction.

"Oh? Ona, did I steal your man?"

"Don't talk nonsense, Cosi! This person is a relative of Lady Yulia, no, a friend!"

The horned woman Cosi's smile faded.

The look he gave Rhodes became serious.

Relatives of the Vampire King Yulia?
That's incredible.

Rhodes: “?”

Relatives? Commissioner Yulia's? I've never met them.

The only connection between Yulia and me is Hera the Scorpion. Could it be that Hera secretly recognized me as her son?

Not so!

"I'm sure the person Lady Yulia likes won't be less than Mr. Rhodes. Are you interested in joining our cleanup team?"

Cosey made the invitation quite formally. "Clean-up team?"

"A team that clears out alien space, any cosmic creatures or phenomena that might pose a threat to the real world."

Wow.

That sounds dangerous.

There was no way Rhode would join a team that would kill countless people just by listening to it.

"You're poaching the person that Lady Yulia has her eyes on right in front of me? Aren't you going too far!"

Ona was angry.

He started pushing and shoving Cosi, and then cursed at each other with a smile.

Then he quickly kicked her out of the office.

As for the human mage who had been sitting next to her, she glanced at Rhodes, nodded to Ona, and left the office.

Rhodes naturally noticed.

Furthermore, the robes this person was wearing were similar to those worn by the Bahadur School of Magic.

The only difference was the color. The one I met before was a black robe, but this woman was wearing a purple robe with more exquisite lines and patterns.

Market area.

Sure enough, there were crowds of people coming and going.

However, the Magic Control Alliance intentionally controlled the number of people, so it didn't seem too crowded.

Ona walked among the crowd.

Turn your palm over and keep looking at the colorful magic ring in your hand.

His eyes were full of love.

Rhodes didn't quite understand the current trends on the continent, and this colorful ring seemed quite non-mainstream to him.

"So, the current grand scene in the market area is caused by the cleaning team that Miss Cosey is with?"

"Yes, Cosi and I are both direct subordinates of the six members of the Magic Control Alliance. Do you think I look better wearing purple on my index finger or my ring finger?"

"They all look good."

"Really~~"

Rhodes stopped in front of a grocery store and successfully saw several items on the shopping list.

Looking at the remaining number, there are not many left.

Buy it immediately.

When he actually packed it into the magic bag, he couldn't help but feel a little relieved.

The consumption driven by the huge amount of cosmic biological spoils obtained by the alien space cleaning team is really not to be underestimated, even though this is not a street in the cosmic biological zone.

If we just wait in line until those thousands of people pass by, most of the stock in the market area will probably be sold out.

"That female mage seems to be from the Bahadur School of Magic? I remember that the schools under the Magic Control Alliance and this school of magic are competitors, right?"

The sleeves of Ona's white robe were very long, covering her hands, and usually they hung down casually.

But now that she was wearing the colorful rings, her hands kept dancing in front of her, never putting them down for a moment.

"Vanessa Valentine, a magic professor in Bahadur, high-level eighth level? I forgot someone arranged for me, Cosi and I to meet. They wanted two things: one was the remains of a rare cosmic creature from the cleanup team, and the other was a certain containment object."

Ona didn't care at all and told what was said between them.

I guess he had no intention of agreeing to her request.

"This man has a very bad reputation. He was imprisoned by Bahadur a few years ago for colluding with Purgatory and was only released recently."

Collusion with Purgatory?
Rhode wasn't too surprised by this. Nowadays, it wasn't uncommon for mages to collude with Purgatory.

Almost every day there was a section in the newspaper dedicated to accusing Esselon of inaction in relation to such crimes.

This Vanessa Valentine only did it two years ago. If it were now, she might not be imprisoned at all.

To his surprise.

Bahadur actually has independent law enforcement powers!? Independent prisons??
Ona stopped at a food stall.

I bought a bunch of potatoes and radishes and cooked them hot, the aroma was everywhere.

As she blew the trumpet, she said, "It's said that a few years ago, a student stole Vanessa Valentine's experimental materials and a bunch of other things, affecting her memory as well. She became a bit crazy, otherwise she wouldn't have been so unruly to come to the Magic Control Union."

Rhodes was stunned for a moment:
"The experimental materials and a bunch of other things were stolen, and even my memory was affected?"

Why does it sound so familiar?
