I'm on the Ark, and I started as a succubus.

"Now is not the time to apologize! We are on the battlefield! Little rabbit, remember, six minutes. We can only buy you six more minutes at most. If you exceed this time, you may encounter the enemy when you try to retreat."

Franka's voice, unlike her usual languid tone, sounded cold and unquestionable.

"Understood, Miss Franka."

Amiya's still somewhat childish voice gradually became more mature.

Franka let out a long breath and glanced back quickly, still feeling a lingering fear.

The Sarkaz who had appeared out of nowhere filled her with inexplicable fear and dread. She was certain that if she fell into the hands of this Sarkaz, something terrible would happen.

Just now, when she first saw this Sarkaz, the first thought that popped into her mind wasn't wariness or suspicion, but rather the feeling that doing something fun with this Sarkaz would be wonderful, blissful, and wonderful.

An idea that came out of nowhere.

Even after I came to my senses, I still felt my blood surging, my body burning, and something faintly throbbing within me.

It was as if something inside my body had awakened.

They easily repelled the Sarkaz who had appeared out of nowhere. It felt so easy and effortless. The enemy didn't seem strong at all; on the contrary, they were as weak as a novice.

But Franka's mind was even more tense. The tension made her completely suppress her usual carefree nature, and she had no intention of joking at all.

She had a feeling that tonight would be the toughest battle she and Razer would face since becoming part of Razer Steel International's elite force.

She might actually be captured and locked in a dark cell. She and Razer were both very beautiful girls, and she knew all too well what it meant for a beautiful girl to fall into the hands of the enemy on the battlefield.

'If... it's just that guy, then it's not unacceptable...'

Franka's swift movements paused slightly, and her body stiffened slightly.

"Franka!"

The Razer sound dispelled the fleeting, romantic thoughts that had suddenly popped into Franka's mind, prompting her to hurry forward through the snowstorm, weaving and darting through the narrow alleyways.

As she was about to turn again, Franka suddenly stopped, her full, plump back slamming against the wall as she gasped for breath in the icy, bone-chilling air.

That strange, burning sensation became even stronger, so strong it felt like it was boiling.

The cold air did nothing to alleviate the strange symptoms; on the contrary, the stark contrast between the icy cold and the scorching heat only amplified her symptoms.

The image of the handsome, dashing, yet alluringly beautiful Sarkaz once again surfaced in Franka's mind, along with a host of strange thoughts she couldn't suppress.

A dreamy look appeared in Franka's orange eyes, and a hazy, beautiful blush appeared on her delicate, fair neck, as if she were immersed in some extremely strange state.

Her legs, clad in black stockings, trembled slightly, as if she had finally felt the harsh cold of Ursus, and she even rubbed her slender knees from time to time because of the cold.

They were trying to alleviate the ever-present chill in this way.

"Franka, what's wrong?"

Razer turned back and returned to Franka's side.

"Go quickly, I'll stay behind to buy some time, just like before."

Franka forced a smile. "If something were to happen to me, an Oripathy patient, well, wouldn't that be considered a relief beforehand? Hmm~ Clean and efficient."

Razer noticed that something was wrong with her. The usually taciturn Razer grabbed Franka's arm and dragged her into a more secluded alley.

They encountered the Sarkaz but were never able to catch up with them, as if they intended to let them go so easily.

So, it's obvious that Bai Chen is letting the opponent have the upper hand.

Or rather, a massive flood, otherwise, by the time they met, the beautiful fat fox and the honest man would already be in their soft, warm bed!

086 Why don't you use hypnosis again!

This act of deliberately releasing the floodwaters and maliciously letting the beautiful girl escape naturally drew severe condemnation from the system.

"Hey! Are you doing this on purpose? You're letting the pretty girl escape again!"

"How am I supposed to explain this to you? Are you even a normal person? Is that L36cmφ6cm thing just for show? Please~ my dear succubus, it's one thing if you don't go and date beautiful girls, or at least have a sweet romance!"

"Jewel! Your Jewel! Waaaaah... Hurry up, hurry up and bring them back, Jewel! Waaaaah~ How can you bear to let beautiful girls work so hard outside? Beautiful girls should live a happy and carefree life in the palace."

The incessant nagging is incredibly irritating to listen to.

Does that mean succubi can't have a private life?

Dating, seducing, and bewitching beautiful girls—that's work, a job that even gods and demons hate! As an outstanding succubus, one shouldn't have to devote all their energy to work and should have some private time outside of work.

"They keep shooting me with Originium Etching Bullets, how am I supposed to have a relationship with them?"

Bai Chen stayed put, pulling and tugging at the system.

"Where's your hypnosis? Hypnosis, paralysis, distortion of common sense, arousal of desire?"

The system popped up again in the form of a virtual beautiful girl, jumping up and down and yelling at Bai Chen, "Why didn't you enlarge it again! No, I'm so angry I'm confused! Why didn't you use hypnosis on the beautiful girl again! Was the hypnosis I gave you meant to give those damn old Ursus nobles hints and do fancy tricks for you?!"

"How can I amplify it? How can I use hypnosis on a beautiful girl? This is a terrible setting you created yourself. By the way, the emotional points that a beautiful girl can provide after hypnosis will become extremely low. Where will I get points after I use hypnosis?"

Bai Chen spoke with conviction.

"Then what about your time stop? My time stop isn't for you to play transport games with! It's for experiencing the Time Stop Academy!"

"Too lazy to use it."

Bai Chen shrugged at the System, whose cheeks were puffed up, his face showing a complete lack of resignation.

Before the system could raise its voice to express its strong dissatisfaction and condemnation, a flash of inspiration struck him, and he instantly concocted a brand new lie.

"This is enjoyment~ Enjoyment, you know? Just like an appetizer before a main course, you need to have some fun and unique little games to start with."

Do you really think I'm easy to fool?

The system stood with its hands on its hips, glaring angrily at Bai Chen. "You've been able to keep fooling me because I'm forever an 18-year-old beautiful girl! Forever an innocent, naive, and romantic beautiful girl who forever believes in truth, goodness, and beauty, forever believes in love, and forever believes that the heart can decide everything."

She stared wide-eyed at Bai Chen, biting her lip, "That's why I'm willing to believe you again and again."

Oh, so it's still easy to fool and deceive.

Bai Chen nodded thoughtfully, then scoffed dismissively, "Oh~ the eternally innocent and romantic, eternally pure beautiful girl system keeps urging me to get some beads~"

"That's you! You've always wanted to get aborted, you've never wanted to be in a relationship, and you don't believe in love or beautiful love!"

The system's ability to shift blame made Bai Chen realize that she was actually a hardcore, ruthless person from the construction site. "I've always been encouraging and supporting you to date beautiful girls..."

The virtual girl suddenly gasped, a look of gritted teeth appearing on her face. "You're deliberately trying to lure me into talking about these pointless topics, deliberately letting the beautiful girl escape! I almost fell for your trick!"

Finally realizing she had been tricked, the system gave up on negotiating with Bai Chen and launched another hysterical outburst, bombarding him with sound and pop-up messages:

"Ahhhh... Hiss hiss my Franka, hehehe, Franka, fat fox, Franka, that kind of clean-freak beauty, must smell so good, must exude the unique milky fragrance of a beautiful girl, sweet and soft... hehe, ah—if I could lick it, I would surely ascend to heaven in a moment of bliss!"

The mental pollution emanating from him, like that of a psychopath, was something Bai Chen couldn't bear.

He knew that he would probably catch at least one pretty girl tonight, and this damn system would probably never stop.

In any case, he needed another little maid who needed care, nurturing, and was a bit rebellious.

The system grants special abilities that never allow the beautiful girl to completely fall into depravity; even if she does fall, it will always help her retain her sanity. It's said this is so he can still earn system points, but it seems more like it's to protect the beautiful girl.

Even the succubus's "Ten Drops of Blood" did not exacerbate the effects of the Bead's corruption. On the contrary, it alleviated the positive effects caused by the succubus's blood and other substances. Afterwards, it made people more clear-headed and deeply reflect on their previous despicable behavior of the Bead's corruption.

However, if you work overtime and play the role of a good succubus, you should at least get a little extra pay, right?

"Sir, what do you think?"

Bai Chen tried to swindle more benefits from the naive system.

"What are you looking at?"

The system put on a stern face.

"Look, those abilities are all too fast. They're over in a flash. I don't even get to enjoy them. Enjoyment is a comfortable and fun activity, not something where you don't experience any fun and it's over before the beautiful girl is turned into a maid."

Bai Chen rubbed his fingers together with the system, "That's no fun at all. So, do you think I should have some abilities that I can play with slowly? Ideally, something that's a little bit strong, so I can play with the beautiful girl slowly, gain the upper hand in battles, and gradually make the beautiful girl feel powerless and desperate, so that she can only watch helplessly as a terrible fate rewards her."

He paused for a moment, then smiled and nodded slightly. "It's that kind of ability, the kind where you watch the Tears of Elegy deck unfold, powerless to interfere or stop it, and unable to even disconnect and escape."

"Ho~"

The virtual girl created by the system scoffed for a moment, then put her hands on her hips, looking as arrogant and domineering as a little devil. "Oh my god~ No way, no way, no way, you haven't really changed your ways and are going to actively and proactively enjoy being a beautiful girl? No way, no way, no way? You really haven't reformed, have you?"

She proudly raised her snow-white chin, almost shoving her face to the sky, "Oh my, really, trying to trick the system into giving you abilities again, huh? Heh, I saw right through you~"

087 Brand new big toy

His clumsy tricks failed, and Bai Chen's face fell. He stood rooted to the spot like a wooden stake, showing no intention of chasing Franka and Razer.

After pretending to admire the scenery for a while in the wind and snow, he casually said:

"Are you going to give it to me or not?"

"Here you go, why wouldn't I? Upgrade your succubus ability to level six, and it'll be delivered right away! I'll whip that beast girl with my big whip!"

Bai Chen frowned. "You've come here to learn the dialect?"

"I learned this when I was a data clerk on a construction site. Want it? If so, upgrade it now and find me some beautiful girls!"

The virtual girl created by the system raised her voice so loudly that Bai Chen felt his head buzzing.

Bai Chen opened the system panel, hesitated for a moment, and then clicked the upgrade button.

To be honest, he didn't really want to upgrade the Succubus's main ability, even though it was like the skill system in old games like Fantasy Westward Journey, where you couldn't upgrade other skills without investing in it.

The [Succubus] ability, when it becomes powerful, feels terrible. The accompanying succubus pheromones and similar abilities are purely negative. It's the kind of situation where you can walk down the street and buy a bubble tea and be surrounded by a bunch of pretty animal-eared girls asking for your contact information, hinting or suggesting you do some fun things!

The first couple of times were indeed a good experience, but over time and with repeated occurrences, the succubus pheromones would only make people feel annoyed.

It's like stepping out the door and someone trying to drag you into the basement.

The demonic purple-pink light flashed, distorting the surrounding environment, as if it had warped space itself.

Once everything calmed down, Bai Chen didn't feel that he had become stronger. Instead, he felt that his desire for the beautiful girl had deepened slightly.

Doing fun things with beautiful girls is perhaps the most wonderful and refreshing experience on this land full of beautiful girls.

At one point, he even had a thought that all the beautiful girls in the world should belong to him, and once it was done, he would reverse the order, making all the beautiful girls in Chernobog and Lungmen come to his palace to receive love guidance after they came of age, so that he could cherish and protect them with love.

The strange and alluring thoughts in Bai Chen's mind continued until the new abilities promised by the system arrived.

He glanced at it briefly, and the smile on his face vanished instantly.

The silly system gave him a strange ability, or rather, it wasn't an ability anymore, but a weapon that a succubus should possess.

A whip.

It combines the elongated shape of a queen's and instructor's whip, but the end of the whip is made up of countless leather straps like a bandage whip. If it weren't for the fact that the whip body is thick enough and has terrifying, grotesque, tree-root-like gnarled ridges on it, it would not look like a weapon at all.
