The Mage of Primordial Chaos

Chapter 531 – At Home

After returning to the beach, I was met with another near-death encounter. The girls promptly beat me up for a long long time until they were finally willing to listen to what I had to say and I explained to them what happened. Eve, meanwhile, just stood by one side and watched in amusement, giggling and laughing at the scene.

Once I was finished my explanation, the girls collectively turned their glances towards Eve, as if observing her. At first, I was worried they wouldn't accept her, but…

"Well, since you're here…" Feng Mian sighed and shrugged, before giving in to a smile. "You're one of us now. I hope we get along."

"My, my… these girls are… awfully accepting to their love rivals," Eve said with a soft chuckle, but her smile was evidence that she was pleased, as she bowed down a little. "I hope we get along as well, then."

"So, uh… do we call you Your Majesty, or something…?" Yu An Yan asked, folding her arms, but Eve only laughed at the innocent and honest question.

"No, no," she said, waving her hands. "Just Eve is fine. Here, I am not a queen. Just a normal woman, nothing more. Unless, of course, some of you are succubi…"

"Er… about that…" I began, but Feng Mian responded first.

"Actually, I am half-succubi," she stated, bringing her hand to her chest. "And I've been wondering for a while, but… I don't think my mother was one. Could you check my bloodline, perhaps, as the queen of the succubi?"

"Hm… well, it is not impossible," Eve said, tilting her head. "Here. Give me your hand."

Feng Mian did as told, lifting her arm and holding it out for Eve to inspect. The succubus queen took Feng Mian's hand in hers, then…

"…!"

"Ngh-!" Feng Mian cried out in pain as a searing pink mark in the shape of a heart appeared on her hand. The other girls and I both prepared to interrupt the process, but Feng Mian shook her head as if telling us 'no, it's fine'.

But I knew better.

Glancing at Eve, I could sense a faint trace of killing intent. At least, earlier, when she invoked this mark, there was… but now, the killing intent was gone, and Eve was back to her usual, temperate self, as she let go of Feng Mian's hand.

"I see… I have seen everything."

"You've… seen everything?" Feng Mian asked, confused, as Eve nodded slowly.

"Calling you a half-succubus isn't truly accurate. You are a full, 100% genuine succubus, and an extremely powerful one at that. Can you show me your succubus form?"

"Um… that's…" Feng Mian looked at me with pleading eyes, and I sighed before walking close to her, and giving her a deep kiss as I fondled her breasts.

In the matter of a few seconds, her sexual desires were aroused, and her succubus form came to life as I backed away. She looked like a normal succubus, but all her succubus body parts—the tail, the wings, and the horns—were all smaller in proportion to Eve's.

"I see… so you don't have control over when you can show your true form yet…" Eve narrowed her eyes in calculation. "And to activate it, you must receive sexual stimulation… from him in particular, I assume?"

Feng Mian nodded, and Eve fell back into thought.

"Hm… yes, it all makes sense now."

I blinked. "What makes sense?"

The other girls seemed to share the same question, and we all looked at Eve curiously as she explained.

"Those purple horns and wings… they are the mark of nobility. Normal succubi have pink features, but you have purple ones, just like mine. And if my guess is not wrong… your womb tattoo…"

"E-Eh?" Feng Mian blinked in surprise, and Eve nodded.

"Pull up your shirt a bit."

Feng Mian obeyed obediently, revealing a beautiful purple womb tattoo there, with intrinsic lines and designs spreading from it. Eve narrowed her eyes at this, as if studying it, while Feng Mian looked away in embarrassment.

"U-Um… this is kind of…"

"… I see."

Eve slowly backed away, and took a deep breath.

"To think I'd find you here… my twin sister."

At this, all of us were left in a state of speechlessness and shock for a moment.

I was the first to react. "W-Wait, what? Your sister?"

"Yes," Eve said. "This girl right here… is the sister I was separated from when we were born. You see, amongst succubi, their womb tattoos mark the family they are from. If you take a look here…"

She snapped her fingers, causing her own womb tattoo to shine brightly with purple light, and with some simple comparison, it was easy to tell hers was identical to Feng Mian's.

"Wha… but that means… my parents…" Feng Mian whispered to herself, covering her mouth, as Eve nodded.

"They are not your true parents. Simply adoptive."

"But… why?" Lan Xiao Su asked. "Why would the succubi separate you two?"

"That is a common tradition amongst the succubi race, for generations," Eve explained. "On the off-chance that the previous queen gives birth to two or more offspring, only one may be chosen, and the others are essentially thrown away. I am unsure how your parents managed to adopt you, as most of the thrown away babies simply die in the wild, but consider yourself lucky."

"So… this is their method of preventing inner conflict amongst offspring…" Obsidia analyzed, narrowing her eyes. "How cruel."

"And they decide who gets to stay by judging the babies' power levels and comparing them?" Amane asked, arching an eyebrow. "Now that's just unfair. Who's to say a weaker person now won't become stronger in the future?"

"Quite so," Eve replied in agreement, folding her arms. "It is an extremely flawed system, and thus, when I have offspring, on the off-chance I have more than one with Xuan Kai here—which will probably happen given how much we… enjoy ourselves in bed—I will not employ this system."

"Ahem…" I cleared my throat, signaling that I wasn't too happy about her choice of words there.

"If you so wish to return to the succubi race right now and challenge me for the throne of queen, you may do so," Eve continued, turning to Feng Mian. "I welcome you with open arms."

But to no one's surprise, Feng Mian shook her head with a smile.

"No, it's alright. I'm fine where I am now. Right here, surrounded by my husband and my friends… this is the happiest place in the world for me."

I didn't fail to notice how she placed special emphasis on the word husband, nor did I miss the invisible sparks flying between the two's eyes. 

Women are scary.

Thus was my conclusion.

"Alright, uh, well… I need sleep, so… I'll be goi-"

"Now where do you think you're going, Big Brother Xuan Kai?" Qing Yue asked with a seemingly innocent smile as she pulled me back by the sleeve of my cloak, but I knew better. That smile… it was the most dangerous thing in the world.

I gulped in fear. "L-Listen, I'm sorry about this, but there was nothing I could do, alright? My Chaos power don't work in dream-"

"Chaos?" Eve asked, successfully having her interest piqued. "Is that the power you hold?"

"Er… yes," I replied. "But I'll let Mei Gui explain it to you, so uh, for now, peace-!"

Instantly, I teleported away, and Qing Yue didn't seem frustrated at all, instead merely smiling wider than before.

"Hehe~ it's okay, Big Brother Xuan Kai… you can run, but you can't hide…"

"… Understood, Master," Mei Gui replied with a delay, then turned to Eve. "Follow me. Out here is not a suitable place to talk."

"Right… I'm hungry, anyway," Yu An Yan said with a smirk. "So, who's cooking today?"

"Fufu, leave that to me and Axilia," Ling Xin said, eyeing her own sister. "Come now, Axilia… let's whip up a very, very nice dish for Xuan Kai, shall we?"

"Yep~!" Axilia cheered, and as the two disappeared, heading for the kitchen, Eve couldn't help but stifle a laughter.

"… You guys… are quite the interesting bunch indeed. Xuan Kai did not lie when he told me I wouldn't get bored here. As it would seem… it's true."

"Well, I can't promise you won't get bored, but… I can promise you this," Feng Mian said with a gentle and friendly smile. "So long as you don't try to hurt any of us or break the peace, we'll accept you as a member of our family."

"Yes… thank you very much," Eve replied, and together, the two twin sisters shared a moment of sentiment together.

Eve could not lie, this was nice. All her life, she was alone, praised high above as the queen of an entire race. That seemed like a royal and amazing occupation to have, but the truth was, she was lonely, without anyone to converse with. No one treated her for who she was, only her title.

But now… perhaps, for once, she could finally feel at home.
