Chapter 14: LRGS.
'This form? What... Hold on, does she mean...'
Mark felt his throat dry up, causing him to swallow his own saliva. His body went cold, but at the same time he couldn't stop sweating, and his heart rate kept rising from the fear slowly enveloping him.
It was different from the fear he felt while being chased by a dragon. It was the fear of realization.
He hadn't given the maid much thought at first, believing she was a figment of his imagination. By the time he accepted that she was real, the world around him began falling into chaos and forcing him to act and leaving no time to think thing through.
"You... what do you mean?" His body trembled as he asked the question. "This form? Are you saying... this isn't what..."
Mark didn't think he would've figured it out even if he had the time, not right away, at the very least.
He had dismissed the notion that he was the one who brought her to life, but he didn't stop to think who or what had done so. He didn't even consider whether the maid really was his ally.
With the world becoming crazier by the second, the chances of something disguising itself in this form so it could get close to and harm him weren't low.
He could think of several monsters capable of taking the form of a human, some even manifesting men's deepest desires for a much stronger effect. He was being chased by a dragon until a few minutes ago so it wouldn't be strange if something else was after him.
"Are you... are you a Succubus?"
"... A Succubus?"
