Chapter Title: EP 3: Yuta - Succubus Transformation BAD END Epilogue
-----------------------------------------------------------------
The incident that occurred in Yuta sent shockwaves through the surrounding cities.
The lord was killed, and over a hundred residents lost their lives.
The city was reduced to rubble overnight.
"Most of the victims were affiliated with the church. The church took it very seriously. They dispatched people to investigate and found that the majority of the city's residents had been enthralled by a powerful magic artifact."
A chilly night.
The group sat around the campfire after dinner, chatting idly to pass the time.
The one who spoke was a short-haired woman armed with leather armor and a dagger.
Her name was Ar, a veteran thief affiliated with the Adventurer's Guild.
Sitting beside her was her party member and wizard, Yuz.
She had a youthful appearance, but the raven-shaped brooch on her chest hinted at her considerable skill. It was the mark of a formal member of the Raven Guild, something that couldn't be obtained with ordinary talent.
The three sitting across from them were pilgrims the two had coincidentally encountered on the road.
Word was that the three had left the city just before disaster struck Yuta. So when Ar mentioned the commotion there, they looked utterly shocked.
"Who on earth could have done such a thing?"
The silver-haired woman asked.
Her name was Yuria. She was a mysteriously alluring young lady with an astonishingly lovely and elegant beauty.
Even as a fellow woman, just looking at her evoked involuntary admiration and an inexplicable flutter in the chest. She possessed a bewitching charm.
"The culprit hasn't been caught yet, from what I hear. Apparently, everyone connected to the incident is either dead or missing, so they're in quite a bind."
"Oh no..."
Yuria clicked her tongue in pity.
Then she clasped her hands together over her chest and said,
"Everyone I met in Yuta was so kind. It's heartbreaking that something like this happened. I must pray to the gods that they've gone to a better place."
Yuria gazed at the campfire with a devout yet somewhat sorrowful expression, offering her prayer.
The two women beside her followed suit, also praying.
Both were beauties on par with Yuria. Perhaps because of that, the atmosphere grew solemn amid the crackling of the fire, and watching them pray felt like beholding a masterpiece painting.
"Ar."
Captivated by the indescribable emotion of the scene, Ar was pulled back when Yuz tugged at her sleeve and whispered from the side.
"What?"
"Come here for a sec."
Yuz led Ar a short distance from the campfire, glanced back along their path, and cautiously broached the subject.
"Those three... they're suspicious."
"Suspicious how?"
"I'm not sure. But I feel a really bad vibe from them."
"You don't mean... monsters in disguise, do you?"
Ar asked incredulously.
Yuz seemed half-doubting herself.
"It's not certain. I've never felt anything like this before, so..."
Ar glanced back toward the three.
If a wizard of Yuz's caliber couldn't detect it clearly, there were two possibilities.
One: a powerful monster capable of fooling even a veteran wizard with exceptional magic detection.
The other: just her imagination.
The latter was far more likely. Such monsters rarely appeared in threes in these remote backroads.
"You sure it's not a mistake?"
If Yuz was right, they should strike first for the best odds.
But if those three were innocent pilgrims, it'd be a horrific crime.
That's why Ar hesitated to trust even her longtime companion outright.
"Well..."
Yuz seemed conflicted.
Ar thought: Yuz, so proud of her skills, wouldn't hesitate this much unless she also didn't want to kill them without reason.
Adventurers weren't particularly virtuous, especially veterans.
They were known as the next most dangerous after criminals in remote areas.
Because adventurers staked their lives for a living, operating in lawless zones where immediate, high-level force was needed, and crimes rarely got reported.
Thus, unspeakable atrocities happened among them.
The two had overlooked crimes occasionally and even committed a few themselves when necessary.
This situation was similar.
After the incident, the area around Yuta had become unstable.
Bandits were notorious here too. It was illogical for three unarmed women to travel through.
So if taking Yuz's warning seriously, they should kill and bury the three now.
That was the adventurer's way.
"Alright. I'll probe a bit."
Ar patted Yuz's shoulder and said.
The two returned to the campfire and sat.
"Had to step away for a bit. Haah."
Ar said nonchalantly.
Yuria smiled softly without a word.
That warm smile nearly shook Ar's resolve.
Truly a frighteningly beautiful face.
"Mind if I ask something?"
Ar started.
"Of course."
"Where are you three from?"
Yuria turned to her companions briefly, then back to Ar and answered.
"A small village called Welb. It's quite far southwest from here."
"Born there?"
"Yes."
Yuria soon began talking about her hometown.
Its scenery, the residents, the times she spent there.
Her face showed joy, sorrow, nostalgia—chatting happily yet wistfully, brimming with memories.
It was the pure innocence of a naive girl missing her family and villagers.
After hearing her out...
"...I see."
Ar nodded to Yuz and shook her head.
She was convinced by that display.
No way they were monsters. Those were genuine memories only someone who'd lived that life could share sincerely.
As night deepened, the group pitched tents near the campfire and retired.
Just as Ar lay down, footsteps approached from outside.
She thought it was Yuz, but it was Yuria who entered.
"Sorry. Did I wake you?"
"No, I just lay down. What's up?"
"Well..."
Yuria fidgeted, entered, closed the tent flap, and sat.
Ar sensed something amiss and grew serious.
"I got scared trying to sleep. After hearing about Yuta... I feel uneasy."
Relieved it was nothing major, Ar chuckled dryly.
"I get it. It's fine. If a monster approaches, Yuz will alert us immediately. She's amazing despite appearances."
"That's a relief."
But Yuria hesitated to leave, brushed her hair aside shyly, and glanced at Ar.
That courtship-like gaze made Ar's heart race inexplicably.
A virgin with no dating experience, Ar didn't recognize the feeling. With even a little experience, she'd have known instantly.
The special emotion between those harboring affection.
"Um, could I..."
"Could you...?"
"Hear some of your adventure stories too?"
Disappointed by the unexpected request, Ar felt a pang she couldn't explain.
"Adventure tales? They're endless. Might take all night."
"I still want to hear."
"Fine. Brace yourself."
Ar shared her adventures since becoming an adventurer.
She planned to keep it short, but Yuria's rapt attention—with perked ears—got her excited too.
Midway, Yuria asked,
"Any dating experience?"
"Huh? D-dating?"
Caught off-guard, Ar stammered.
"Not really. I'm not that attractive anyway..."
"That's not true. You're plenty attractive."
Yuria approached, grabbed Ar's hand, and insisted.
For a moment, Yuria's eyes flashed pink.
They were strikingly beautiful and mesmerizing.
Like being drawn in.
"R-really?"
"Yes. Probably because you don't promote yourself. Want to strip?"
"Strip...?"
Ar hesitated, embarrassed.
"Come on."
Urged by Yuria, Ar reluctantly removed all her clothes.
Even among women, being naked was mortifying. She'd refuse anyone else. But with Yuria... she was secretly thrilled.
"Nice breasts, pink nipples. Not bad. I don't love the muscle tone, though."
"Not... your taste..."
Ar muttered sadly, on the verge of tears.
"But it's okay. Obey well, and I'll love you plenty. Lie down there first?"
"Yes♥"
Obey, and be loved.
Excited at the chance, Ar obeyed and lay on the bedding.
Yuria soon climbed atop her.
Suddenly, horns and a tail sprouted from her head and hips.
"What’s... that?"
"Don't worry. It's nothing."
"...Yes."
Yuria wouldn't lie. Ar believed her innocently, as if in blind faith—far more naive than her usual self.
"From now on, I'll make you a woman."
Yuria said, looking down.
Her tail slithered between Ar's legs, teasing her clit seductively.
"Haht...♥"
"Look straight into my eyes."
"Yes...♥"
Ar gazed into Yuria's eyes.
Gold and pink swirled brilliantly.
Her mind went blank, breath quickened, heart pounded, body heated.
"Haaang...♥"
As her mind fixated on those eyes, the tail roughly spread her pussy and thrust inside.
"Ah, virginity. Always so sweet."
Yuria licked Ar's cheek.
Despite the mocking expression, Ar was thrilled to offer her virginity.
"Know what happens to women who offer virginity to a succubus?"
"No... Huwaang...♥"
"They become lewd slaves. Obeying the succubus who deflowered them."
"Slave...♥"
An ominous word, yet to Ar, it was sweet whisper.
She wanted it.
To be this person's—no, this lady's—slave.
Amid that impulse...
"Aaaang♥"
A vulgar moan echoed nearby.
From Yuz's tent.
"Hehehe...♥ Looks like she's done over there too."
"Yuz...?"
"It's fine. Focus on me."
Yuria gripped Ar's head, forcing eye contact.
Gazing in dispelled her anxiety, replaced by relief and gratitude.
"Huuht...♥"
Squelch, squelch.
The tail obscenely churned her pussy.
"Slave."
Yuria stroked Ar's hair.
"Yes, Lady Yuria...♥"
"Suck if you want."
Yuria's nipple hovered before Ar's eyes.
"Aah...♥"
Ar smiled ecstatically and latched onto the plump pink nub.
Something flowed from the nipple—cold at first, then hot.
Ar shuddered at the sinister energy invading her.
But Yuria's petting erased fear, leaving only an intense desire for more.
"Feel honored, human. I'll keep you as a familiar for a while. Until you're useless."
"Mmph♥"
Yes, my master.
Ar replied joyfully.
A short time later.
A battle raged in the forest near the city.
More accurately, it was one-sided beating.
The aggressors: just two people.
Thieves and a wizard, nearly naked save for jewelry and weapons.
The jewelry: piercings on nipples, navel, and clit.
Merely to accentuate their lewdness.
[Hell Fire]
[Wind Cutter]
The staff emitted eerie red light, the dagger slashed swiftly, mercilessly cutting down the armed men.
"Don't kill them all. Leave some. Master needs 'dinner.'"
The woman dual-wielding daggers said.
"I know. Half-dead is fine, she said."
The wizard coldly eyed a man screaming in flames.
The silver-haired near-nude thief—Ar—approached an injured, fallen man.
He was part of the local bandit gang.
"S-spare me! I was wrong!"
He screamed.
Ignoring him, Ar slashed with her dagger.
His pants tore, revealing his erect cock.
"Size is decent."
Ar emotionlessly parted her pussy with fingers and lowered her hips onto his cock.
"Ngh...♥"
As it penetrated, the impassive silver-haired thief finally showed enthusiasm.
Emotions suppressed for their slave role, but sex was permitted joy.
The monstrous demeanor shattered laughably as the silver-haired thief writhed lewdly atop the man, bucking her hips.
Astounded, the man couldn't resist the reverse rape and ejaculated.
"Toilet pussy semen collection complete. Evaluation: low quality. Premature. No value for Master."
"What? That's too much...!"
Before he could protest the insult...
Slash.
Ar's dagger swiftly slit his throat.
She rose from the fresh corpse, semen dripping from her gaping pussy, and moved to the next target.
Soon after the Yuta incident, nearby cities saw endless murders, robberies, kidnappings.
People vaguely sensed something ominous in the sudden crime wave but couldn't pinpoint the cause.
And a few years later...
The kingdom was thoroughly ravaged and conquered by a massive horde of high-rank succubi.
The forces of good fell, and chaos and darkness descended on the world.
