Linlin had her own plans for sending Mavis away.
Using her magic to draw a specific trajectory, she unlocked the encrypted magic matrix of the safe.
With a pull, the contents of the safe were revealed before her without reservation.
Bypassing some of the more valuable items, the most eye-catching things were a small pile of pink crushed diamonds covered in green slime, and a small glass bottle containing an unknown green liquid.
“Ah, bragging so loudly, but it’s useless at all. Is it a fake?”
Linlin wiped the green slime off the crushed diamonds and said very disappointedly.
That pile of crushed diamonds was her Succubus Heart.
The Succubus Heart wasn’t a specific entity, at least Linlin hadn’t heard of any succubi whose Succubus Heart would precipitate after death.
But the powerful Gluttony Demon King solidified it and forcibly shattered it.
If Linlin was still in the Demon Realm, she would have despised these crushed diamonds very much.
She only didn’t throw them away because she was afraid of being cursed by other demons using these crushed diamonds.
However, how much she disliked it at the beginning, she regretted it now.
“Ugh, it’s so annoying, can’t it really be put back together?” Linlin scratched her hair, quite annoyed by this.
That bottle of green liquid was the most advanced equipment repair liquid claimed by a century-old repair liquid shop.
She had bought and tried the beginner, intermediate, and advanced ones, but they were of no use at all.
And the advanced one wasn’t sold through normal channels.
Linlin didn’t have connections, so she had to borrow the succubus’s powerful lurking ability.
Linlin vaguely knew that Mavis’s background was somewhat unusual, but seeing that she had never said anything about her family, Linlin felt that there might be some unspeakable secrets, so she didn’t plan to borrow her connections.
Today, Linlin found an excellent opportunity to successfully steal… ah, no, bought back the advanced repair liquid.
She just couldn’t find a way to get it, it’s not that she didn’t have money.
Her Mavis was a small rich woman, but before she got married, Mavis liked to spend money recklessly, always buying a lot of cool but useless magic props or equipment.
Linlin naturally wanted to curb Mavis’s extravagance, so she managed the money.
But this led to Mavis, who had lost many hobbies, either playing with Linlin or playing with Linlin every day.
If the Succubus Heart wasn’t broken, then Linlin would indeed be very happy.
But for Linlin, who had lost her Succubus Heart and couldn’t feel lust, this was torture.
Although she liked her lover very much, Linlin didn’t want to be like this all the time.
So she pushed the energetic Mavis into the city patrol team that was just recruiting, to release Mavis’s energy.
She was quite promising, and became the captain in just a few days after being selected.
Linlin had actually tried to investigate the source of Mavis’s unknown property, but she stopped after being warned by an unknown force.
Of course, if it wasn’t because she investigated that this unknown force was harmless to Mavis, Linlin wouldn’t have given up.
In short, Linlin, who wasn’t short of money, left enough money.
So, she wasn’t a thief, it was called buying.
Linlin’s original plan was, if the Succubus Heart was repaired and could still be used, she would sneak into Mavis’s room tonight and give her a little surprise.
But now, emmm, wash up and sleep.
Linlin sighed.
Speaking of which, this afternoon was really a little dangerous.
If Mavis hadn’t stood by and watched, she would have really been caught.
Originally, Linlin could have stolen and retreated without any injuries.
But some experience books left by succubus predecessors said.
Don’t leave a flawless crime scene, otherwise it’s easy for humans to know that demons are at work, and catch them with powerful Relics.
Following this principle, Linlin deliberately exposed herself, so that others would think she was just a slightly individual human thief.
The Inquisition naturally didn’t have time to pay attention to this kind of small trouble.
Everything was moving in the direction she wanted. She just needed to go around casually, let others know that it was a human who was causing trouble, and then get rid of the miscellaneous soldiers.
But what she didn’t expect was that Mavis, who was supposed to be patrolling in another area, suddenly appeared in front, as if waiting for her.
Although she was wearing armor, Linlin was very familiar with her lover’s aura.
For a moment, Linlin thought that she had exposed her identity, and Mavis was planning to clean up the house.
But looking again, Mavis’s pace was lazy, looking around, a little呆呆的, not like she was blocking her on purpose, but more like a street hooligan wandering around.
“Soldier ahead, please stop that little thief.”
Hearing this sentence and seeing Mavis turn around, Linlin instantly felt her heart cool.
If it was other miscellaneous soldiers, even captain-level ones, Linlin could easily run away, at most erupting some abnormal speed.
But Mavis…
Linlin found it difficult to describe. In short, her hands were very strong, and one hand could grab Linlin’s hands together, lift them up, and let Linlin’s feet float in the air.
No matter how hard she struggled, she couldn’t escape the fate of being imprisoned.
Of course, restoring her succubus form might allow her to run, but being discovered as a succubus by Mavis was absolutely not happening!
Analyzing from the perspective of a hindsight strategist, the main reason was that Linlin didn’t have much time to think at the time.
Seeing Mavis, she panicked even more and couldn’t think rationally.
This led to the mentality of being finished.
But slowly calculating, even if Mavis had caught Linlin at the time, even if Linlin had hidden her aura, she would have instantly noticed the familiar feel.
Mavis didn’t have the awareness of destroying relatives righteously, and would most likely protect Linlin and point the sword at others.
However, Linlin didn’t think of this at the time, and was very flustered for a while, even considering the idea of detouring.
But it was too late…
Just when Linlin accepted reality and accepted the fate of being captured by Mavis…
Mavis crossed her arms, completely without the intention of moving.
Linlin’s heart cheered.
‘This, is this the telepathy between lovers?’
Linlin never expected that Mavis wouldn’t attack herself even if she didn’t recognize herself.
She really, I’m crying to death…
When passing by Mavis, she glanced at her gratefully, and then quickly disappeared into the crowd, never doing anything again.
As for whether Mavis discovered that it was Linlin, and then deliberately let her run.
Linlin thought it was unlikely.
With Mavis’s brain capacity, in the situation at the time, she couldn’t think of such a sophisticated operation of ignoring it and letting it run to clear her relationship on the surface.
She would only wave the great sword, protect Linlin behind her, and say some lines that she thought were cool, but were actually very badass, such as,
“Those who cross over, die!” “I mean, you will all die.” “Go back, no one will get hurt.”
Mavis wasn’t unintelligent, she was just straightforward in many cases, without so many twists and turns.
After circling around the city for a large circle, Linlin, who was completely sure that no one was tracking her, quickly put away the stolen goods, destroyed the black robe, and quickly took a shower.
There was definitely no time to cook, so Linlin planned to muddle through.
Although it didn’t seem to matter if she didn’t cook, as a housewife who didn’t work, Mavis would definitely ask how she didn’t cook and where she went.
Linlin didn’t want to lie to Mavis.
Succubi were creatures full of lies. In order to draw a clear line, Linlin had always insisted on not lying to her lover.
She must never start this, even if it was ambiguous, causing Mavis to be suspicious, she would never lie.
She was considering the possibility of exposure in the future. Fire can’t be contained in paper.
She would eventually be exposed. Linlin planned to use her words and deeds to prove to her lover that she wasn’t a “succubus”!
However, in this way.
From the perspective of her lover:
Linlin was gasping for breath and her face was flushed, as if she had just finished exercising.
She didn’t cook, but went to take a shower.
When asked where she went, she was vague and didn’t say the specific location.
Sending this experience to the Internet in her previous life would attract a pile of hats in the comments section.
Linlin knew that Mavis wouldn’t overthink, but Linlin couldn’t help but overthink.
Linlin didn’t want to be suspected by her wife.
So as soon as Mavis came back, she directly invited her to dance.
Mavis didn’t have food to eat, but she still had her. She could be… cough.
In short, relying on taking the initiative, she greatly reduced the probability of Mavis’s suspicion.
Of course, Linlin, who wasn’t active on weekdays, was active at this time, which was somewhat of an overcorrection.
But what could Linlin do.
She couldn’t reveal her secret, she couldn’t lie, and she didn’t want to be suspected.
Under these three premises, she could only do this.
After pretending to be dizzy during the love, Linlin restored her succubus form and pieced together her Succubus Heart.
Because she was too focused, Linlin finished piecing it together and found that Mavis was at the door.
When people panic and are in a hurry, they easily forget things.
Before Mavis came in, she finally eliminated the small wings and pointed ears, but the tail was slow and couldn’t be eliminated.
Mavis had already come in, and Linlin’s attention was all concentrated on her, so it was impossible to eliminate it at this time, so she could only tie it to her thigh.
Fortunately, Mavis just had some bad taste.
How dangerous, Linlin almost thought she was discovered.
