Chapter 271: Aries The Sheep

Words : 1473 Updated : Sep 29th, 2025

Inside a palace built of hot rocks and surrounded by scorching lava, a male with a serious and fierce look sat on his throne. His right hand held a huge double-edged axe, and his black eyes watched the four resting demons in another area through a flame mirror. He had a humongous build with thick muscles protruding from beneath his skin, and his entire body was covered in thick brown fur. His head resembled that of a human, but it was adorned with two large horns that curved forward like ram's horns. "Interesting!" The male demon muttered to himself with a faint smile on his face. "I know that a succubi can indeed transform into an incubus, but Feltia is definitely not an ordinary succubi. Otherwise, she would not be able to endure the intense heat in my sub-realm, let alone engage in sexual activity with the three female demons, without experiencing fatigue. If I remember correctly, those three demons should be residents of the Amaris Twins' sub-realm, and they came here with that deer faun to get my fire demon flowers." The male demon was none other than Aries, one of the Diyu Realm's twelve rulers. Like the Amaris Twins, he can also monitor the entire area of his sub-realm with ease, so no intruder will be able to escape his surveillance. However, that did not apply to the old man who suddenly appeared before him, causing him to raise his eyebrows at his unexpected arrival. "Why did you suddenly come here, Zygoz?" "Ha ha ha." The fake Zygoz or Oz laughed upon hearing Aries's question. "Did you find Feltia interesting? "Hmm?" Aries raised his eyebrows at that point, but then he nodded to Oz. "I've been observing that succubus since their arrival in my sub-realm, and I find Feltia to be quite intriguing, especially her fighting style. Usually, demons of her race will fight by modifying their bodies as weapons, and they are also using their charm abilities to immobilize their enemies. Instead, she fights with her bare hands, and her raw strength is so high that she can easily defeat my demon beasts with a single blow. That's why I purposefully observed her more closely to verify her true strength, and I considered recruiting her as my confidant." "Hehe." Oz chuckled at Aries' answer. "You should forget about your intention to recruit Feltia, especially since she will never accept your offer." "Oh?" Aries looked at Oz in surprise. "Does that mean you've tried recruiting Feltia before?" "Yes." Oz nodded to Aries before talking to him again. "As you stated previously, she is different from the other succubi, and she has a much higher dream than all of us, so your offer is just a speck of dust in her eyes. No matter what you offer her, she will never accept it. Instead, you can give her your support, especially since I am sure she will be able to bring about changes in our realm." After hearing that, Aries looked at Oz with a strange look, especially since he had never acted like that before, and he was also the oldest of the twelve. "What do you mean by that? Do you think that Feltia wants to become the next demon lord? I acknowledge that Feltia stands out from the other succubi, and her strength is commendable, but she lacks the necessary qualifications to become our lord, particularly given her current demon rank of Viscountess. Moreover, those three, along with the Amaris Twins, are overly ambitious to rule over our realm, and they will kill her if they discover her ambition to compete with them." "You guessed wrong about Feltia's dream; she is just like us, not interested in becoming the next demon lord, and her dream is much bigger than that." Oz's answer actually made Aries look confused. "You must have realized that the four female demons with her are residents of the Amaris Twins' sub-realm, right? She is currently infiltrating that sub-realm to do something, and her main target is the twins." "Doesn't that mean she's courting death?" Aries frowned, particularly considering the disparity in demon rank between Feltia and the Amaris twins, which were too far apart. In addition, he knew enough about their abilities, which were clearly on par with his. "Just like me, they must have known about her presence in their sub-realm, and they were always suspicious of all other demons who entered their lair, so I believe they must have sent people to investigate her. If they discover anything suspicious about her, they will kill her." Zygoz smiled at Aries' words. "In fact, they already sent Ashreth to my sub-realm because Feltia told her that she was my resident, but I've arranged everything well so that the dark elves couldn't find anything suspicious about her." "Hey, old man! Why do I feel like there's something strange about you?" Aries inquired, gazing at Oz with a serious expression. "Normally, you would never act if there was no danger in our realm, but you suddenly acted like this, and you even did so much for a low-rank demon like Feltia." "Who said that there is no danger in our realm?" Oz asked while shaking his head. "All these years, you guys have been too focused on yourselves, with some of you only thinking about becoming the next demon lord. Unlike all of you, I have been monitoring our entire realm every second, so I know more about what is happening in our realm. There are some great dangers lurking in our realm, so it is time for us to unite, or we will suffer the loss ourselves. However, I can't explain to you the details of those dangers yet, especially since I haven't found any solid evidence about them. After giving some thought to it, the three female demons agreed with Feltia, and Eve immediately flapped her wings to fly into the sky. As for Fyr and Leora, they descended to the rock and spread out in two different directions, waiting for her signal to save their friend. Feltia did not move immediately, but she observed the surrounding area through the map, and she also spread her senses far enough from the area to make sure there were no other demons there. Upon ensuring everything was in order, Feltia swiftly floated to the fire demon flowers' location, landed in front of the lava prison, and glanced at the faun curled up on the ground. Tessa, terrified of death, immediately looked up at Feltia and begged her. "Please! Save me! Aries will be here soon, and I don't want to die by his hands." "Why should I save you?" Feltia asked as she turned to face Tessa. "You've always acted arrogantly, and you looked down on me even though I've shown you some of my abilities. Moreover, the five of us are a team, but you abandoned us when we were fighting so many demon beasts yesterday. Besides, your life is none of my business, so I couldn't care less if you die, and I only need to report to Lady Ashreth that you died because of your own carelessness." "No!" Tessa screamed while shaking her head hard. "Please! I don't want to die! I apologize to you, so please free me from this prison." "Do you think your apology would be useful if we died at the hands of those strong beasts yesterday?" Feltia asked Tessa, causing her to shiver as fear quickly engulfed her. "A traitor like you doesn't deserve to be saved, so you should just stay there and wait for your death, because I don't care about your life." "No! Please! Save me! Feltia! Save me!" Tessa immediately let out a loud scream as Feltia turned around and walked away from her. Feltia casually walked towards the fire demon flowers despite Tessa's screams; her lips curled slightly as she activated her heavenly fox aura, which only the lava behemoth could sense. "Hey! I know you're in there, so you should come out now." *Rumble... Rumble...* Instantly, the ground in the area shook violently, and the lava behemoth once again came to the surface. However, Tessa, who was not far from them, could see that the demon beast's body was shaking strongly, making her realize that the demon beast was frightened by Feltia's presence. - To Be Continued - === My other novels 1.
