You Have Problems Too

Linlin pondered for a moment, then remained silent.

That Alice was a succubus, and the likely target of this family’s clandestine dealings was also a succubus.

She was currently using a succubus ability: “Presence Manipulation.”

This ability allowed succubi to become the radiant focal point of a crowd, fully leveraging their charm.

Or it could allow succubi to conceal their aura, even reducing their presence to the extreme, making them undetectable even when walking right in front of someone.

This was also a succubi’s reliance for infiltration. Otherwise, with a succubus’s allure, they’d cause lustful stirrings the moment they appeared, and any fool could tell something was up, making any kind of infiltration impossible.

The old man was probably sensitive to this because succubi frequently used this kind of “invisibility” to communicate with him.

As a renegade succubus, all her knowledge and abilities related to succubi were either unusable after her Succubus Heart was shattered, or remained at the level they were ten years ago, naturally leaving her full of flaws.

Adhering to the principle of “the more you say, the more mistakes you make, the less you say, the fewer mistakes you make,” Linlin decided to leave.

The old man might realize there was an outsider later when he dealt with those succubi.

But who cared? They couldn’t find out who it was anyway.

‘Oh, wait, hold on.’ Linlin paused, just as she was about to leave.

A succubus-like ability, but not under the command of the Lust Demon King, was that perhaps easy to guess?

Other ordinary demons might be involved with various Demon Kings, making it hard to distinguish.

But succubi, who specialized solely in lust, seemed to only have her as a defector within her core group.

Linlin abruptly turned around, a black short blade appearing in her hand, her eyes flashing with a hint of ruthlessness.

She didn’t want the Lust Demon King to know she was in Holderma.

Back then, she had just turned eight years old when the Lust Demon King chose her because of her outstanding beauty.

Eight years old! She was only eight years old!

Of course, adding her soul’s age, she was definitely more than eight.

But that didn’t change the fact that the Lust Demon King was purely born that way.

As the embodiment of the sin of lust, the Lust Demon King’s looks were naturally beyond words.

Linlin, who had grown up among succubi, was almost seduced by her, breaking her Dao heart.

She almost succumbed to her desires, almost.

If she had just transmigrated, she might not have been able to resist.

But Linlin, who had consumed demonic stones for eight years, had a Dao heart as hard as rock, and her eyes became much clearer after seeing the Lust Demon King’s three thousand concubines.

She had finally transmigrated to another world, and although the start was a bit problematic, she still had an ambitious heart.

She was still thinking about suppressing the ages in the future.

Wasn’t that how many transmigration novels were written?

No matter what the start was, the end was always about suppressing the ages.

Although she knew it was just wishful thinking, Linlin still encouraged herself in this way.

Decisiveness was key, so she swiped some specialties and ran straight to the Gluttony Demon King’s territory.

The process was a bit tortuous, but at least it was thrilling but without danger.

It was a bit of great filial piety, but for Linlin, it was a last resort.

Her previous life had influenced her values too deeply to be changed.

She didn’t want to change and become a true demon.

The bride ran away with the dowry. This was clearly a blatant humiliation for the Lust Demon King.

From the Gluttony Demon King’s smile, one could deduce the Lust Demon King’s anger.

Linlin was very scared, but she didn’t regret it.

Four years ago, at the age of fourteen, Linlin felt she had no future in the Demon World and didn’t dare enter the more dangerous Abyss.

So, she accepted the Gluttony Demon King’s mass-distributed task, planning to come to the main world to seek a breakthrough.

The Demon World was very barren. Ninety-nine percent of the resources were firmly controlled by the Demon Kings and various lords.

If demons wanted to improve, they either had to devour each other, defeat the lords, or find other ways out in the wealthy main world.

After hunting in the wilderness for half a month, she finally caught a lone woman.

She quickly pretended to be seriously injured and was taken home by her.

There was no choice. Although she specialized in gluttony, her succubus nature hadn’t changed.

Even for the sake of infiltration, she didn’t want to be picked up by a bad guy.

But how could a kind, lone woman pass by in the forest?

Hey! Believe it or not, she met a conceited Mavis.

Linlin’s luck had exploded.

The cunning Linlin knew this woman was unusual, planning to use her as a stepping stone, and then…

Then, somehow, she ended up selling herself into it, scratching her head, not scheming at all.

In short, Linlin had settled down in Holderma, and she didn’t want to be targeted by a Demon King.

She wouldn’t be naive enough to think the Lust Demon King would be merciful.

Being sliced into a thousand pieces would be a good death for Linlin.

She wasn’t afraid of death, but of a fate worse than death.

So!

Even though Linlin hadn’t killed anyone since she followed Mavis, but!

If necessary, Linlin would not hesitate to act!

The cold edge of the short blade rapidly approached Mr. Brown.

Linlin didn’t hesitate at all!

Suddenly, Linlin’s sixth sense sent a warning of danger!

Someone, no, some demon was coming!

If Linlin continued, the burst of magic would be too obvious.

Without the slightest hesitation, Linlin flashed to the wall.

Concentrating magic with “Gluttony” characteristics in her hand, she slammed it down.

The wall of the entire house instantly shattered.

Bang! Crash!

The last thing Mr. Brown saw was the falling rubble.

Pulling her hood down, Linlin left without looking at the results.

A somewhat effeminate man looked at the collapsed house, lost in thought.

“The power of gluttony? Heh, what good means.”

The collapse was too loud.

Everyone in the Brown family thought the earth dragon had turned over.

They ran out, only to be surprised to find that it had stopped.

Then, they discovered the collapsed building shrouded in dust, shocked and then terrified.

The effeminate man didn’t plan to go forward to search for survivors.

The commotion was too great. It could be heard clearly for miles around.

The Silver Codex would definitely intervene.

He had to hide his tracks as much as possible.

As for Mr. Brown, he could only wish him good luck.

The dead Mr. Brown was a decent man.

Of course, if he didn’t want to be decent…

“Cough cough, huh, huh…” He heard weak breathing from under the ruins.

The effeminate man used magic to investigate and understood somewhat.

It seemed that Mr. Brown had reacted at the last moment and dived into the corner.

After the building collapsed, it just formed a solid triangle for him to survive.

What good luck.

But, the effeminate man smiled slightly and used magic to destroy the stable triangle structure.

Bang!

Mr. Brown was a decent man.

Having caused such a big commotion, he could only be decent.

As the only insider, he couldn’t be allowed to live and provide information to the Silver Codex.

After ensuring that Mr. Brown’s brain was shattered beyond repair, the effeminate man erased his own magical traces, strengthened the original traces of gluttony magic, and left without looking back.

Mind Walkers could indeed make the dead speak, but that was on the premise that the brain was intact.

In order to deter the public and ordinary demons, the Silver Codex wouldn’t publicize this weakness.

If Holderma could really snatch souls back from the underworld and make the dead really speak, then there would be no need for them demons to bother controlling this city-state.

They could just wash up and sleep, and the mastermind would be revealed.

But that was obviously impossible.

“Heh, naive demon, playing framing, you’re far from it.”

The effeminate man smiled strangely, looking a bit creepy.

It was very normal for demons under the various Demon Kings to frame each other.

But he felt that this demon was doing it too crudely.

Reporting it to someone at random would be more effective than this.

The effeminate man, who was sneering at the gluttony demon, brushed past a patrol team.

He glanced at them, not caring.

Just a patrol team.

“Hey, you, yes, you, stop right there. You’re smiling so strangely, you must be suspicious!”

Mavis’s confident voice sounded as usual.

The effeminate man’s face instantly froze.

?

Was there a problem with him smiling strangely?

The effeminate man forcibly suppressed the corners of his mouth, making him look even weirder.

“Captain, I have facial paralysis. My face is out of control.”

The effeminate man was confident he could easily kill this small team, but if he did that, he would be completely exposed.

Unless absolutely necessary, he didn’t want to do that.

“Sneaking around, leaving instead of saving people. You wouldn’t be the culprit, would you? Come with me.” Mavis picked up her chains.

The effeminate man was numb.

Wasn’t Holderma the land of law?

Wasn’t it a place where evidence should be presented?

Why would this “demonic” thought of “I think you’re guilty” appear on a patrol captain?

Although very puzzled, it didn’t affect the effeminate man’s weighing of the pros and cons.

First of all, he definitely couldn’t go with her. The Court of Judgment had plenty of ways to make demons reveal their true forms.

It was just that some methods were too cruel, so they couldn’t be promoted to all the people.

The various complexities were complicated.

Secondly… there was no secondly. Mavis had already impatiently begun to act.

The effeminate man suddenly sneered.

“Hehe, you’re right. It’s a pity. Take your keen intuition to the underworld!”

Icy demonic power condensed into short thorns in his hand. In an instant, he came to Mavis’s side.

Ordinary people’s eyes couldn’t even keep up with his speed.

“Next life, repent for your sense of justice… huh?”

As he spoke, the effeminate man stabbed towards Mavis’s chest.

He was very confident that he could penetrate this ordinary plate armor.

Then, he suddenly felt a dizzy spell. The whole world was upside down in his eyes.

Oh no, he was being lifted up.

The effeminate man’s sinister eyes instantly became clear. He looked blankly at the iron-clad man holding his calf.

“Sir, I actually just wanted to spar and had no ulterior motives,” the effeminate man said, saying words that even he didn’t believe.

“Oh, oh, is that so!” Mavis said thoughtfully.

The effeminate man’s spirit lifted. Could there really be a chance?

“Someone, tie him up and take him to the Court of Judgment.”

?

“You’re playing me?”

“That’s exactly who I’m playing! How much do you weigh to dare show off in front of me?

‘Next life, repent for your sense of justice.’ The words sound impressive.”

“Sir, you know that the Carnival City’s circus is recruiting new people recently.”

“Speak human.”

“Sir, what I mean is, I intend to take on the role of a clown and have been practicing diligently recently.”

Mavis ignored this man who was tied up like a dumpling and looked at her little brothers, uh, teammates.

“You, yes, you, give him a smack.”

“Captain, wouldn’t that be bad?”

“I told you to smack him, so smack him!”

The effeminate man was dumbfounded.

“??? No, are you using torture privately? Ah!”

“Damn it, you damn vermin, I’m going to appeal. Holderma’s supreme law will give me justice!

You will pay the price for your dereliction of duty!”

“These words sound a bit familiar,” Mavis muttered to herself and then felt that this person was too talkative, so she roared,

“If you shout again, I’ll send you ten more smacks!”

“Those who despise the law! Justice may be late, but it will never be absent… Ah! Absent, ah~, it will not be absent, ah! Sss!…”

“If you shout again, I’ll send you a hundred smacks!” Mavis said with a smile.

The effeminate man was honest and no longer shouted about the law.

It was the first time he had seen someone openly and fearlessly trampling on Holderma’s laws, more demonic than demons.

Some pedestrians on the street where they were located were attracted by the tremor.

After coming over and seeing Mavis using torture privately, they were immediately furious.

Then… then they retreated. “So it’s Mavis. No wonder. What a pitiful child.”

The effeminate man was speechless. “You think I’m pitiful, then come and save me. Why weren’t you so cowardly during the usual marches?”

The people around him looked at their noses and hearts.

If it were someone else, even a high-ranking official, a group of people would swarm up, and the high-ranking official would have to consider public opinion, even be swept away by public opinion, and make his actions more in line with procedures.

But Mavis was different. She would really smack anyone who came.

Some people felt stifled and, seeing the effeminate man adding insult to injury, immediately roared,

“Why did she catch you and not others? You must have a problem yourself!”

The effeminate man: ?
