update icon Updated at 2025/12/10 17:30:47

"My Lord Demon King, are you really going to leave me all alone just to handle paperwork?"

Noah’s angelic smile pressed forward with the weight of human desire.

"Leaving your shy, adorable wife behind while you attend to duties alone?"

*Terrifying. Her eyes aren’t smiling at all.* A chill shot down Ledyah’s spine, her heart freezing solid.

"Now, now, be good. I *am* the Demon King—I’ve got responsibilities. Stay put until I return, alright?"

Ledyah forced her usual haughtiness aside, cooing gently at the buxom Holy Maiden before her.

If she failed to soothe her now, there’d be no waiting until nightfall to find out what shape she’d be twisted into.

By tomorrow, she might not even be able to leave bed…

This succubus’s abilities carried as much *weight*—and *persuasive* power—as her figure.

*Impressive, my Lord.*

*Such a model husband—even with overwhelming strength, he treats his partner with grace…*

*His example will forever be etched in our hearts.*

The oblivious maid squad silently praised their beloved Demon King.

"But duties can wait, can’t they?"

Noah’s jade finger tapped her pink lips, fox-like cunning glinting in her eyes as she beamed sunnily.

"Push the Demon King’s affairs aside. Spend a whole day playing with your sweet wife instead?"

"After all, I’m new here. I don’t understand much yet~. I want to hear it from my Demon King’s own lips~—word by word, in the most intimate whispers~."

"*Ugh!*"

*How dare she flash that smile while making demands?*

Ledyah’s expression tightened. Faced with Noah’s look, refusal felt impossible.

But if she agreed… wandering the Demon King’s Castle instead of working… it’d surely spiral into—

"*Haa… ah… my Lord…*"

"*We’ve walked so long, Noah’s tired. Why not rest here? Fulfill each other’s needs?*"

"*Mmm~ No dining hall, no bedroom needed~. Right here is perfect… No one’s watching. Or better yet—let them see! Then everyone will know you’re mine~. Makes things easier later.*"

"*After all, a succubus’s nature is common knowledge, isn’t it~?*"

*That outcome was painfully predictable!*

Ledyah’s face turned deathly pale—even for a lich.

*Ohhh, my Lord! Truly remarkable!*

*Even burdened by duty, he honors his willful wife’s wishes! Is this the lesson he imparts to us?!*

The maid squad’s eyes sparkled anew with silent adoration.

"Noah-sama, Ledyah-sama oversees countless Demon King affairs. If you permit, I shall personally tour you through the castle until she’s free. Would that suffice?"

Spotting Ledyah’s pleading glance, brave Astolfo stepped forward—salvaging his "humiliated" king’s dignity.

"Hmm… If A-Fu insists, I suppose I must relent."

Recognizing when to retreat, Noah tapped her lips with a smile. "Then, my Lord Demon King—*good luck~*."

With that, she followed Astolfo out of the tension-charged dining hall.

"*Phew…*"

Ledyah finally exhaled. A maid promptly handed her a battle report.

A mere glance confirmed her suspicions. A knowing smile curled her lips.

"*Just as expected…*"

The assault on the human realm—the Holy Empire—unfolded exactly as she’d foreseen. No surprises.

Noah glided soundlessly down the castle corridor, bare feet hovering three centimeters above the crimson carpet. Astolfo trailed behind, speaking only when necessary.

*Holy doctrine states: "Angels tread not on earth; grounded angels are fallen."*

Yet only the Healing Saintess and a rare few truly floated barefoot. Other Holy Maidens and Knights wore shoes.

This "Levitation" skill had manifested the moment Noah crossed over—blessing, since marble floors were freezing.

Even without it, her tattered Goddess Robe offered divine protection: cool in scorching heat, warm in bitter cold. A true holy relic.

Still… parading in this outfit felt shamefully exposing.

*Decision made. Time for a change.*

In seconds, Noah activated her transmigrated gift: the Holy Maiden’s innate skill—*Ceremonial Attire Creation*.

A gentle white light enveloped her. As it faded, a transformed Noah stood before Astolfo’s wide, wary eyes.

A modest sailor uniform strained over generous curves, fabric stretched taut.

A pleated micro-skirt hugged her full hips, meeting white over-knee socks in a tantalizing line—overflowing curves begging to be touched.

Her elegant cherry-blossom braids had become playful twin tails, transforming the noble angel into an enchanting fairy radiating irresistible charm.

Though truthfully, Noah’s presence alone was hard to look away from.

*Especially given her… proportions.*

"Well, A-Fu? Do I look cute like this?"

Catching Astolfo’s fixed stare, Noah winked one eye mischievously, stuck out her tongue, and chirped.

"Exquisitely beautiful, Noah-sama."

Astolfo bowed slightly, lowering her gaze from the dazzling girl before her—and meant every word.

Noah naturally radiated allure, amplified after consuming the *Essence of the Moon*.

Usually unfocused, it was easily resisted by the disciplined—a testament to Noah’s control.

*This time… I lost my composure.*

Seeing the Holy Maiden so humanly vibrant had rooted Astolfo’s gaze in place.
