Taboo Manual for Raising a Succubus Girlfriend!

When it said "take action", it actually meant that it intended to take advantage of the chaos caused by the battle to escape quickly, and had no intention of fighting at all.

"Do not."

Ye Shi rejected its order, and after a brief thought, said:

"Ms. Maria, please continue."

After the last unpleasant tracking trip, Ye Shi learned that Maria was a pervert, but also an outstanding artist with strong painting skills.

only...

"What kind of considerations did you put into placing Zero's portrait among the portraits of past demon lords?"

Ye Shi's eyes dimmed a little and he asked seriously.

“…”

This question was very sharp, causing Maria to hesitate again. A rare display of complex emotions flashed across her grey eyes as she said:

"At that time, I thought...Zero-sama would become the Demon King, but now it seems that I was completely wrong."

"Become....Demon King?"

Maria's words contained too much information for Ye Shi to understand for a moment.

"Stop beating around the bush! Just tell me directly, what is the identity of this succubus?"

Mochi couldn't stand this kind of riddles, so he went straight to the point and asked the most crucial question.

"About this..."

"Maria."

Maria was about to explain when Zero interrupted her, shaking his head in panic.

"Can't..."

She didn't want Maria to continue speaking, so she pursed her lips, with anxiety flashing in her eyes.

But this time Maria did not obey her orders.

"My apologies, Master Zero. I think it would be best if Miss Yoshito knew about this. There's no point in hiding it any further; it will be exposed sooner or later."

"But..."

The two seemed to know something, looking into each other's eyes and communicating through their eyes.

Soon, Zero lowered his eyes in frustration and nodded, as if agreeing with Maria's behavior.

Maria understood, placed her hands on her stomach, and apologized:

"I'm truly sorry for deceiving everyone earlier, especially Miss Yoshito."

"I?"

"Ah."

Maria took a deep breath and told the shocking truth:

"Actually, Master Zero... you should just call her 'Zero'. This child is not a demon king, nor is she the demon king's daughter. All her previous identities were fabricated."

"What..."

Ye Shi was stunned.

In fact, she had also considered this possibility.

After all, Zero's relationship with the Demon King seemed unusually distant. Even when he was seriously ill, he never came to visit her. It seemed that the two had never met each other.

There were several times when the topic came to the Demon King, and Zero seemed to be very unfamiliar with this Demon King, and no useful information could be obtained from her.

"So, what exactly is Zero..."

"As for this child's true identity, I actually don't know."

Maria intertwined her fingers across her chest, a complex expression in her gray eyes as she began to recount her encounter with Zero...

It was an ordinary night.

While Maria was praying alone in the church, a crack suddenly appeared above the headless statue.

It was like a wound in this world, with muddy black mud seeping out from the cracks. The suffocating and terrifying magic shocked even Maria.

Then...

"clatter"

As if giving birth, a petite figure wrapped in black mud fell out of the crack, with vaguely visible snow-white hair. Like a newborn lamb, it couldn't even stand steadily.

Maria had no idea who the girl in front of her was. Feeling uneasy, she stepped forward to help her clean the black mud off her body, as if she was welcoming a newborn baby.

The terrifying magical power of this child made her realize that this might be the power of the "Demon King".

At first, she didn't have a name.

Faced with the sudden birth of a girl, Maria did not think much about it. She just gave her one of the characters in the name of her beloved "Dong Ling Mohua", praying that she would become a equally outstanding person.

And just like that, "Zero" was born.

The identity of "Devil's Daughter" is fabricated.

Originally, this was done to give the terrifying power within her body a "reason" for its existence. As long as she is the daughter of the Demon King, it is reasonable for her to possess any powerful power.

However, things backfired.

Zero was unable to use that powerful power, and his body was constantly failing. Maria tried many methods, but to no avail.

Just when she was at a loss, she heard the name "Yoshi" from Sueka's mouth.

When she read the files of this mysterious woman, she had a vague feeling that this woman who seemed to be "born suddenly" might have a way to cure Zero's disease.

Later, it was what happened after Yoshitoshi met Zero.

Chapter 339 Riddle (4k)

"Zero was born from...the void?"

Faced with the story told by Maria, everyone present was stunned and showed an expression of disbelief.

"You're kidding me! Don't think I'll believe you just because you made up a story!"

Faced with this ridiculous content, Mochi sneered and chose not to believe it.

"But, this is the fact."

Maria didn't intend to argue. She stood gracefully, holding down her long skirt that was blown by the morning breeze.

“…”

Ye Shi looked into the other person's eyes, and didn't feel any wavering in the deepest part of his pupils, which didn't seem like he was lying.

Zero is not the "Demon King's Daughter" nor the "Demon King" either. She is just a child born from the void...

Although it's ridiculous, it can explain a lot of problems.

For example, why this child is not valued by the Demon King, and why he is not clear about things related to the Demon King.

"I'm sorry, everything Maria said is...true."

Ling lowered his head, his frail body trembling slightly. He took the initiative to apologize to Ye Shi and said in a self-blaming tone:

"I'm not the Demon King's daughter. I'm sorry... I've been deceiving my teacher for so long using this identity, but... I'm worried that if I confess, he'll leave..."

As she spoke, her voice gradually became as tiny as a mosquito, and finally almost inaudible.

Lies are a vortex.

From the very beginning, Zero was deeply involved in it.

Because of the fear that the lie will be exposed, as time goes by, the anxiety continues to expand in the body. There is no way to break free from it, and it will only get deeper and deeper.

She spent every night consumed by guilt.

I was afraid that Ye Shi would leave after knowing the truth, I was afraid that I would lose my usefulness, and I was afraid that I would lose the reason to stay with him.

This was one of the reasons why she lost control.

"So that's it..."

Ye Shi didn't say much, but he felt a little tired, and his red eyes dimmed a little.

After so many things, there are more unexplained questions.

Why did zero emerge from the void?

What is her true identity?

Where did that strange power come from?

Who is the real devil?

besides...

Why do she look so similar to Yu Yi?

These puzzles...

It was never solved, but instead became more and more complicated.

"It seems that Miss Ye Shi is also unaware of this matter."

Seeing Ye Shi's reaction, Maria thought she would know something, but she was disappointed.

However, at this moment, she suddenly remembered the details of her encounter with Zero and said:

"When I first met this child, I noticed... a very obvious wound on her chest, like a knife wound. Miss Ye Shi, are you..."

"!"

Before she could finish her words, she felt a strong sense of shock in Ye Shi's eyes.

"Knife wound"...

The moment he received this information, Ye Shi's brain started buzzing.

swish swish...

In an instant, the field of vision seemed to be broken, with countless snowflakes appearing.

Gradually.

The fishy red color polluted the entire space, blood...it was blood.

Two petite succubus girls were hugging each other in front of him, and one of them had been pierced by a blade. Blood could not stop seeping into the ground, filling every gap.

The scene before her was what she had said she had seen in her "dream".

In addition to the two succubi, there is also a dark figure...

"Demon King"

The devil who always appeared in her dreams was now standing before her eyes, gradually becoming clearer.

boom!

Suddenly, countless dark hands appeared on the ground and grabbed her body, pulling her down as if to drag her into the abyss.

Almost there...

I was almost able to see the other person's face clearly.

So familiar...

Who is it...

Countless black hands climbed up her head, gradually covering her facial features. Just when her vision was about to be obscured by darkness and she was about to lose her breath...

"Yaito!"

The sudden sound evaporated all the darkness.

"..."

The vision regained light, and after the darkness disappeared, what appeared before my eyes was...Yu Yi.

"Ye Shi, are you okay? Your face suddenly turned bad..."
