Succubus Prison

Page 69

Passing through the opened stone gate, another trial temple appeared before El. In the center of the temple stood a huge statue of the sea goddess Mortis. Her face was majestic and holy, she held a golden trident, and her skirt seemed to be made of flowing seawater, which was very dynamic.

At the foot of the stone statue is a huge circular altar, on which twelve fist-sized pearl oysters are placed.

Soon, the authoritative female voice gave another prompt:

Those who seek wisdom must demonstrate equal wisdom; two people must work together, using music to open the sleeping pearl oyster, in order to find the way forward.

"The Heart of Wisdom? Awaken the Pearl Clam? What does that mean?" Kalia repeated her request. "I mean, so much time has passed, are these little guys still alive?"

“We should believe in the power of the gods.” But Bella was more concerned with something else: “There are no musical instruments provided here, and given that those who come to participate in the trial probably don’t bring any instruments with them, I guess they’ll have to sing.” As she spoke, she looked at Kalia and smiled, “Come on, Kalia, let’s try it together.”

Upon hearing this, Kalia blushed slightly and subconsciously took a half step back, waving her hands repeatedly: "Bella, are you serious? But I don't sing very well."

Bella said seriously, "Kalia, there are no outsiders here, no one will laugh at you. Besides, the requirements don't say the music has to be perfectly in tune. I think what the Ocean Goddess wants is sincerity, not perfection."

"Alright, let's make this clear first: if the pearl oysters close up even tighter because of my singing, don't blame me!"

The two walked hand in hand to the altar, facing the huge statue of the sea goddess. El casually found a place to sit down and watched them with interest, preparing to act as a spectator.

"What should we sing?" Kalia asked blankly.

Bella closed her eyes, seemingly searching her mind. After a moment, she opened her eyes and said somewhat embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, Kalia, I forgot something. I'm only good at singing hymns to the goddess."

"Then let's sing a hymn! We'll bet the Ocean Goddess will give the Supreme Goddess some face."

The two of them took a soft breath in unison, and then began to sing together. The melody was melodious and simple: "The Holy Goddess of Light, holy and beautiful, radiant with light, graces the earth. We come to your temple with hearts full of reverence~ Your power can eliminate all divisions in the world. Under your radiant light, humans and demons unite as brothers~"

Just then, something amazing happened!

On the altar, the pearl oyster closest to them trembled very slightly before opening. As the two continued singing, the second, the third, and so on, began to react. But when the fifth oyster was opened, the sixth did not react at all.

Out of desperation, they tried other songs, but the results were even worse than the first one.

Just then, El's applause suddenly rang out.

“That’s enough. Thanks to you all, now I know what the key to opening the oysters really is.” El’s gaze swept over the twelve pearl oysters. “It’s the range of sound.”

Vocal range is a musical term that refers to the range between the lowest and highest notes that a human voice or musical instrument can reach.

"So, we can't hit the high notes? It's all for nothing. Shall we give it our all?" Bella said nervously.

“No need for that. I have an idea.” He chuckled. “But this method… might be a bit offensive. It’s about me modifying you into musical instruments.”

Kalia immediately looked at him, her eyes burning with infatuation: "I'm willing to do anything to help you!"

Bella's cheeks flushed instantly. Combining this with the story he had told her earlier, she seemed to have a premonition of something. Her body trembled slightly, but her obedience and love for El overwhelmed her shame. She lowered her head and said, "I... I am also willing to follow your arrangements."

“Alright.” El took a deep breath, then activated the power of lust, his hands glowing with purple light as he placed them on their necks and used lust-based magic to modify their vocal cords. “Close your eyes, relax your body, don’t think about anything, don’t worry, I won’t hurt you.”

After the transformation was complete, he walked behind them, placing his hands on their slender waists, then slowly sliding them down. The movements seemed gentle but carried considerable force. His fingers deftly slipped under Bella's priestess robes, precisely locating the slightly protruding core through the thin fabric. At the same time, his other hand slipped inside Kalia's bodice, grasping her full breasts and kneading the tip with his thumb.

"Mmm..." Bella let out a soft moan.

"Ah! So good..." Kalia's reaction was even more direct. She twisted her waist, actively responding to El's caresses, and let out a pleasant moan.

"Say it out loud, keep going, don't stop."

When it came to Bella, El's technique was slow and teasing, his fingers circling through her panties. This touch made Bella tremble all over, and her passage instantly became muddy. When it came to Kalia, his technique was even wilder, kneading and squeezing, even with a touch of sadism, which also made her gasp for breath and drip with juices.

As they played their instrument together, the pearl oysters opened one after another.

Success! Just a little more!

Seeing this, El suddenly increased the pressure on his fingers, inserting them directly into Bella's panties and pinching her most sensitive clitoris hard. Almost simultaneously, his fingers also probed into Kalia's vagina, thrusting and digging quickly and powerfully, while his thumb pressed hard on her clitoris.

"Uh-"

The two women threw their heads back and let out a high-pitched scream, which resonated with another pearl oyster. Then, El made Kalia lie face down on the cold altar, her buttocks raised, and he entered her wet and tight passage from behind without hesitation, beginning a rapid and powerful thrust. Each penetration went straight to her core, bringing out a gush of love juice. Kalia's moans changed tone, her body was constantly thrown forward, her hands tightly gripping the two open oyster shells, and she was once again sent to the peak, and another pearl oyster opened in response!

At this moment, El was like a master musician, precisely manipulating the sounds the two women could make with his exquisite sexual skills. Soon, Bella also joined in being fucked. On the altar, the two beautiful bodies, under El's guidance, writhed and moaned in pleasure, their soft gasps and groans rising and falling. Finally, when she reached another climax, her frenzied screams finally lit up the last pearl oyster—

So far, all twelve pearls have been opened and are resonating simultaneously!

Immediately afterwards, the statue of the sea goddess Mortis lowered its eyes and "watched" the three people who were having a lewd party on the altar, and its gaze finally fell on El.

The second trial was passed in an extremely chaotic manner!

However, there was no anger in her eyes; instead, there was a hint of approval.

She may have imagined him as a clever musician, rather than an opportunistic lecher.

The authoritative female voice rang out again.

[Second Trial Passed.]

Kalia and Bella collapsed onto the altar, their delicate bodies still trembling slightly, unable to extricate themselves from the afterglow of their climax. But at this moment, their eyes were filled with infatuation as they looked at El—their master had once again led them through the test using his seemingly unorthodox "method."

El found the so-called "Heart of Wisdom" in one of the shells, which turned out to be an apple seed. Could it be that this is the seed of the legendary Fruit of Wisdom?

He belatedly realized that it might not be necessary to open all the clam shells; he only needed to find the treasure inside when the shells were open. His approach could already be considered a "brute-force" solution.

Life, wisdom—clearly the next trial is either about strength or involves the soul.

"Let's rest for a while before we go." El helped the two women up, changed their voices back to normal, and said softly, "I think the way out should be just ahead."

His gaze turned forward, where a new door had been opened.

Chapter 166 The Ocean Goddess's Reward

Passing through the stone gate, El and his group stepped into a completely different space. There were no longer magnificent temples or complex mechanisms, only a silent darkness where no light could penetrate. Kalia lit a small flame at her fingertips, but the light only illuminated a few steps around her before being swallowed by the boundless darkness.

“It’s so quiet here…” Bella instinctively tightened her grip on El’s hand.

"Yes, it's eerily quiet and simple, and the ground is all wet and slippery, be careful."

Just as they were wondering, a faint light slowly appeared in front of them. The light gradually expanded and eventually illuminated the entire space. Only then did El realize that they were standing on the water, as if they were standing on a huge, smooth water mirror, and their figures were clearly reflected in the water.

The authoritative female voice rang out again.

Those who seek the eye of the soul must confront the soul itself. The reflection in the mirror is all of the past, all of the possibilities. If one's conscience is clear, the road ahead will open itself.

“The Eye of the Soul?” Kalia laughed this time. “Well, whatever it is, I’m pretty used to it by now.”

"This goddess seems to be..." Bella mused, "...wanting us to recognize our own limitations?"

El gazed at his reflection in the water. The reflection in the mirror seemed to be more youthful than he actually was, with clear eyes and an innocent, naive quality.

Just then, the scene in the water began to change continuously.

Before him appeared a scene that was very familiar to El: the training ground of the Royal Knight Academy, where he was wearing leather armor, holding a wooden sword, and sparring fiercely with the princess knight Aria.

A hint of nostalgia flashed in El's eyes, a memory of his student days when he was diligently gaining experience points through battles. Although it was hard work and the progress was slow, at least every bit of improvement was visible.

"That's... the emblem of the Royal Knights Academy. So you graduated from the Royal Knights Academy?"

“Yes,” El admitted without hesitation, “those were the days before I gained the approval of the power of lust.”

However, the scene in the water was quickly reenacted. Inside the luxurious palace, El languidly leaned back on a soft couch, surrounded by all sorts of beautiful women. Their eyes were glazed over as they writhed and yielded beneath him, their bodies trembling with extreme pleasure. Their desires transformed into a continuous flow of power into his body.

“This…” Bella looked at the lewd scene in the water, pointed to the corner of the palace, and saw herself with tentacles filling all the hollows in her body. Her face was flushed and her eyes were complicated. “This looks like me. You’re so bad. How could you do this to me?”

Kalia found herself as well, straddling El's back. She watched with rapid breathing and gleaming eyes, her admiration for El's proactive attitude filling her with envy.

El watched quietly, then smiled slightly. He knew at a glance that this was absolutely not something that would happen in the future. In any case, he would never let his woman be played with by tentacles, not even as a sex slave.

"These are all fake. This place should be able to read our memories and generate images based on them to disrupt our minds."

El asked, "So, what are you trying to say by showing me all this? Do you think I'd miss the solid feeling of accumulating strength little by little through hard work and struggle?"

He sneered. What a joke! Whether as a knight or as the Lord of Lust, wasn't he still himself? Didn't he have desires in the past? The thirst for power, the obsession with victory, the determination to protect his sister, even the respect for his mother and teacher—these were things etched into his bones, things that had never changed from beginning to end. Although he was becoming stronger in a different way now, did that mean he had lost his true self?

This idea is wrong! It's a trap, a trial!

Ultimately, the power of lust is an evil born at the dawn of creation, and it has long since become his handy tool and the most convenient means to achieve his goals. Nostalgia for the pure and simple joy of sweating in the past is essentially a denial of lust and a rejection of the present situation!

Having figured this out, El felt a sense of clarity.

"Heh, trying to pry into my memories?" El revealed a domineering smile. "Then I'll let you see as much as you want!"

As he spoke, he began to envision a series of future scenarios, including, but not limited to, El, crowned Pope in the central sanctuary of the church, with Bella, as a saint, kissing him.

In fact, this is an impossible future. Anyone with a little historical knowledge should know that due to the conflict between religion and politics, the position of the Pope was abolished by the empire long ago. After the destruction of the Papacy, the remaining believers formed the current Church of Goddess.

"Ah...you will become the Pope in the future? Are you sent by the goddess to guide us?" Bella covered her mouth in surprise, looking at the grand and sacred coronation ceremony, and was shocked by the future that El had described.

"Didn't I say that all of this is fake?"

El snapped his fingers and began a new imagining. The scene in the water shattered and then switched to a chaotic battlefield. El, clad in black armor, was ruthlessly leading his army of lustful demons to slaughter the world. He didn't even need to lift a finger; he only needed to unleash his corrupting influence, and those enemies who had vowed to die rather than submit would kneel on the ground, swearing allegiance to him. From now on, they would never feel a trace of pain again, but would be consumed by an irresistible pleasure.

Beside him, Kalia, dressed in a black robe, waved her hand and unleashed a wall of fire, burning her incapacitated companion to ashes.

"Ah, this can't be, this is definitely fake!" Kalia screamed and threw herself into his arms, hugging his neck tightly with both hands. El patted her back to comfort her.

"The little knight of the past, that was me."

"I am now the master of lust."

"As for the future, whether I will become a benevolent pope or a demon king who destroys everything is up to me."

"I, El, may not be able to truly be without guilt, but I have always walked the path I chose with a clear conscience!"

Ding!

The water mirror beneath my feet shattered with a crisp sound, revealing a lifelike sapphire eye in the center, its pupils as deep as an abyss, seemingly able to see through all hypocrisy and affectation.

But the announcement that the trial had been passed never came.

As the scene before them began to shift, in the blink of an eye, they found themselves in a completely new space filled with ocean currents. It seemed as if they were beneath the dome of a magnificent palace, surrounded by flowing pale blue seawater. At the center of the palace, the flowing seawater coalesced into a graceful and majestic female figure—the elemental incarnation of Mortis, the legendary leader of the fifty sea nymphs and the goddess of the sea.

She wore a long dress woven from waves, held a golden trident, and exuded supreme divine power and a vast, ocean-like aura. Her gaze seemed to transcend time and space, landing on El.

When Kalia and Bella witnessed the goddess descend, they were instantly terrified and hurriedly knelt down to pay their respects. El, however, stood calmly, meeting the goddess's probing gaze, and even revealed a serene smile.

The goddess Mortis's gaze swept over El, and she saw several divine blessings upon him, as if she could see everything that had happened during the previous trial: how he filled the pool with the milk of Melona, ​​the daughter of the dragon god, how he opened the pearl oyster by playing music that made two women moan and cry out, and the arrogant declaration he had just made in front of the Soul Mirror.

Silence enveloped the sacred ocean temple. Kalia and Bella trembled, almost suffocating with tension, awaiting the final verdict.

After a long while, the elemental incarnation of the sea goddess Mortis issued a divine oracle.

"Lustful El, your deeds are blasphemous, you toy with life, you indulge in lust..."

She paused, then said, "However, your soul is so noble and passionate; such a contradiction is truly rare."

El raised an eyebrow slightly. The goddess actually said that his soul was noble. This evaluation was unexpectedly high.

"In the name of Mortis, I hereby declare that the trial has been passed. Take the Fountain of Life, the Heart of Wisdom, and the Eye of the Soul, and I will combine them into one to create an artifact that conforms to the desires of your heart."

She stretched out her hand, made of seawater, palm facing upwards. Elton immediately understood, took out the reward from his backpack, and stepped forward to place it in the goddess's palm. Brilliant blue light condensed in her palm, eventually transforming the three treasures into a divine artifact, and then disappeared.

El reached out and caught the artifact. It was an extremely exquisite statue, about the size of an arm, which was the statue of the sea goddess Mortis herself. It felt warm and smooth to the touch, with a cool and sea breeze. However, the lower half of the statue was naked, the entrance was clearly visible, and the private parts were sculpted perfectly. There seemed to be extremely fine textures inside. It was obviously a masturbation device (masturbation cup) made based on the image of the goddess.

Mortis's Consolation

[Quality: Red]

[Unique Feature: Providing You with Comfort]

[Item Description: An artifact crafted from the Fountain of Life, the Heart of Wisdom, and the Eye of the Soul. The holy dew it secretes contains the full power of these three treasures. A small investment and act of kindness from the sea goddess Mortis to a young man.]

"Ah, interesting. What a kind, generous, and understanding goddess." Elmo stroked the smooth skin of the statue, completely enamored with it, and put it into his backpack. He said softly, "I'll shamelessly accept this investment. If you have any requests in the future, whether it's to revive the faith or protect the ocean, please tell me, and I will do my best to fulfill them."

At the same time, a portal made of seawater slowly opened at the other end of the hall, and the outlines of shimmering seawater and ships could be vaguely seen outside the portal—near the Eye of the Storm where the "Sea Serpent" sank!

He turned around, looked at Kalia and Bella who were still kneeling on the ground in a daze, and reached out his hand.

"The trial is over, it's time for us to go home."

Chapter 167 Mistakenly Boarding a Pirate Ship

El led Kalia and Bella through the portal and back to the area where the accident occurred.

Looking around, there were scattered planks and barrels floating on the sea, but no sign of the adventurers and crew who had fallen into the water.

Soon, Meneville sensed their location through her connection with the ocean and rode the currents to their aid. Behind her followed a group of water elementals who walked on the waves, carrying the survivors on their shoulders.

Seeing her disciple return safely, Meniver breathed a sigh of relief, but couldn't help glaring at him fiercely.

"Teacher!" When El saw that his teacher, Menivel, had saved everyone, he breathed a sigh of relief and quickly went forward to rejoin the main group.

Before there was time for pleasantries, someone asked the question that was on her mind.

“Kalia, Bella, thank goodness you’re alive! Where did you go before?” the familiar adventurer asked.

Bella shook her head, lying without blinking, "The storm blew us too far... It's a miracle we were found."
