Leveling Up with My Adorable Monster Girl Harem!

Chapter 96: The Queens

"If the unicorn persistently stays in this area, it means he's looking out for a treasure, right?"

That was basically the only reason those guys thought the treasure dwelled in the forest. Of course, the unicorn himself was a treasure, too, for his blood and flesh could be used in many ways.

Leon also heard that the unicorn's horns were sharp and strong weapons too.

It was such a rare material that Leon understood that he could make something good out of it even though he was a newbie blacksmith. If not, he'd be able to sell it for some sum in the system shop. But his goal never was the unicorn, but those succubi that didn't hide their yearning for him.

"I don't doubt that." Leon hid his real thoughts from the group of humans because he didn't believe in a treasure in the forest. "But since so many parties are involved here, you guys aim to get your own succubus."

"That's the case!" the group of five nodded in tandem, showcasing their teamwork and years of experience under the same banner.

Leon smiled and continued a good talk with them, not caring much about those succubi.

And while he shared his plan and idea to gather many humans under his name, Ender, for he had his charm that drew people and monsters' attention, Alexandra listened to her master with a troubled heart.

She had a simple setting — the altruistic dragon.

Her master had told her before to focus only on their party and people in her eyesight, for she was just one dragon that couldn't change the fate of a whole race. In her life, or rather, in her tempered memories, Alexandra had mainly involved herself with humans.

But now that she had them and the succubi in the picture, Alexandra also thought of helping the succubi. It was all because of her setting and Leon's carelessness while setting it up.

Therefore, as Leon started gathering more people under his banner, Alexandra followed his wishes like a robot while battling her thoughts. The evil dragon smirked at her from within.

Leon stood in the middle of the forest, his feet on the tall tree's spire.

It was dark around him, and only people who knew about his presence would be able to notice him. But sometimes, the moon curiously lit up his form in its moonlight, peeking at his handsome features. When that man turned serious and got to work, his attraction rose at least three times, drawing the whole world's attention.

It's been around four hours since Celes left Leon's side.

In that time, Leon managed to bring at least 90% of human forces into the forest under his banner. Leon hadn't been surprised about that because he knew that strength was the real attraction in this world. Moreover, with his killing intent kindled by the succubi and their scheme to steal his vampiress from him, Leon's charm becomes different.

In his new life, Leon lacked ambitions at first. Then, he found his path and enjoyed time with those that put his heart on fire, giving him a taste of happiness. He focused on his own goals, too. But now that his goals aligned with the desires of the people around him, Leon's charisma drew them to his side.

It was so easy because of his unique physique.

[Everyone wants the treasure to level up and become more prominent in this world. While I'm not interested in that, for I'm already blessed enough, I don't doubt that everyone will think of ways to snatch that item for themselves. And that's fine. You can scheme all you want, but save that for later. For now, we will snatch something that everyone can lay their hands on — their own personal succubus!]

​ [The apron succubus!]

[Yes, calm down, you five.]

[Ok.]

Leon shook his head with a faint smile since he recalled the beginning of his orders as the human party's leader. He gathered them with his charm, raised their chances of getting something out of this event, then sown the common goal in everyone's hearts.

That united them all — at least for a while.

Leon just needed that much time.

[How will we catch them all? They just kill themselves!]

[I've thought about it… That's why you must give them false hope.]

[False hope?]

[Yeah.]

Leon glanced at his minimap and the many marks he'd made here. Using the knowledge of everyone from his new forces, Leon marked the invisible walls and their routes, getting a grand picture of something akin to a maze. In his party, at least fifty percent of humans could easily pass through invisible walls, for they were simply virgins.

But that didn't apply to succubi — not even one could pass through a unicorn's natural defense.

[We'll surprise them with our sudden teamwork. Guide them through the maze, corner them, then all at once, everyone will suddenly give them a false hope… With only one route in their eyes, succubi will fall into our trap… And before all of them notice what's going on, you will strike them that they'll lose consciousness. Once they black out, nothing will move their lips. You'll get your hands on them and give them salvation.]

[How can we… achieve that?]

[You listen to me.]

No one refused to.

Leon didn't know how all of them wanted to tame those succubi — he had a rough idea, but that sounded so impossible for those virgins that he didn't comment on that — but it wasn't his problem.

A succubus had been escaping from humans.

Those clever bastards forced everyone to split, so she was alone. Feeling at least three horny stares on her back, the voluptuous woman leveraged her assets, smiling as she tempted those humans while running away.

She utterly believed that she had everything in her control.

Then, her heart jumped as she felt like she had no room to escape, with many invisible walls cornering her from four walls, including the skies. But once again, fate smiled upon her as the humans lost track of her. Their skills went awry, opening up an exit route!

"Huh?"

And then she noticed many other succubi in the same place.

It was like a grand gathering of them.

A second after she caught sight of her friends, the succubus' vision went black.

She dropped unconscious onto the ground, just like every scantily clothed woman in her vicinity.
