Chapter 30: The Cadre Fallen Angel
"You arrived here quick, Beast King," Apparently my reputation preceded me because Velrissa already knew my title.
Her eyes trailed up and down my armored form, a hungry glint appearing in them as she took me in.
"Succubus Queen," I replied simply, casually unsheathing my sword and leaning it over my shoulder, "Unless you're willing to surrender, let's not waste time on any more words."
I casually tossed the rabid succubi under my arm to Momo, letting her hold onto the woman for now.
"You break through the ceiling of my throneroom after enslaving two of my generals, and you won't even humor a conversation?" Velrissa pouted lightly at me, sticking out her bottom lip, "They don't call you beast for nothing, huh?"
Either she was watching me somehow, or she could sense the power connecting me, Kyon, and Momo now.
"So, you won't surrender?" I asked bluntly, pointing my sword toward her as I completely ignored her.
"Subdue him, Bene," Velrissa huffed at being ignored but licked her lips as she looked at me, "But don't kill him. You'll be the shining star in my collection, Beast King!"
"Yes, Mistress," Benemue said lightly, the Cadre-ranked Fallen Angel stepping forward as a large spear of light formed in her hand.
I tensed my body, ready to see how I faired against a genuine powerhouse in this world. A split second later, the light spear in Benemue's hand was flinging at me so fast that I could barely follow it with my eyes.
Luckily, my body was much faster than my eyes. I swiped my sword out, slashing through the spear and causing it to explode into a fountain of light particles.
