"Thank you for your participation. Next."
Josiah didn't know how many times he had said the same line.
The succubi that Zenas had recruited were all outstanding, so outstanding that Josiah really wanted to change his career and become a movie star. Within a few years, they could definitely pull down the average human physique by several percentage points.
But this kind of vulgar stuff couldn't compare to real movies. Movies were art, and there were many movies that had influenced Josiah's life and gave him strength. For example, Ocean Pianist, The Shawshank Redemption, V for Vendetta, and so on …
Therefore, Josiah didn't want to see the art of his predecessors on Earth be tarnished by his hands.
"Your Highness, the one you just reviewed is the last one."
Zenas whispered in Josiah's ear. With his size, no matter how soft his voice was, everyone in the hall could hear him clearly.
"The last one? Isn't there another one waiting at the door? Let her in. "
Josiah glanced at the register in his hand and reviewed 32 succubi one after another. Many succubi left after Josiah used a euphemistic method to tell them that there was no chance. However, the last few who were reviewed were still in the hall. They seemed to have come in groups.
Zenas also noticed a figure waiting at the door for a long time, but the other party didn't seem to have any intention of coming in, so Zenas chose to ignore it.
"My Lord … Is there anything I can help you with?"
The succubi who had just been eliminated took a step back in fear when they saw Zenas' huge body. Sin Demons were a race famous for having no lust. The little tricks of the succubi were useless in front of them.
Therefore, the sin demons also took up the position of supervising the order of the city. In short, they were the police.
"Her Highness wants to see this guy."
Zenas pointed at the figure behind the group of succubi.
"Her Highness wants to see him? Wait, my Lord, are you mistaken? This despicable guy isn't of our race … "
"This is not a request. This is an order."
As Zenas spoke, he spat out green flames from his mouth. These flames instantly caused the surrounding temperature to rise by more than 10 degrees, reaching an unbearable degree of heat.
"… Ino, hurry up and get over there."
The Succubus couldn't bear the immense pressure. She gritted her teeth and ordered the figure behind her.
The figure fearfully walked up to Zenas. The pressure coming from Zenas caused him to tremble uncontrollably.
"His Highness wants to see you. Follow him."
Zenas retracted the flames on his body, and the surrounding temperature returned to normal.
Josiah saw the scene at the door, and the attitude of the succubi made Josiah feel a little strange.
Succubi weren't a powerful race in the demon race. If Lesser Ghouls were at the bottom of the hierarchy, then Succubi were three levels higher than Lesser Ghouls. They were still far from the nobility of the demon race. After all, Succubi were all females, and apart from controlling the mind, their bodies weren't much stronger than humans.
The figure followed Zenas to stand in front of Josiah, and Josiah could finally see her appearance.
She looked like a pretty girl, but she was different from those succubi who could arouse the desires of others with every frown and smile. Her uneasy expression could arouse the desire of any man to protect her.
Her attire was also different from the Succubi that Josiah reviewed before.
It was old and crude, completely like a servant's attire.
Was she rejected by her own race? Or was she born with a defect that caused her to be discriminated against?
"Ino?"
Josiah looked at her and asked if the name he just heard was correct.
"Y-Yes, Your Highness."
She pinched the corner of her coarse clothes and lowered her head, not daring to meet Josiah's gaze. Her silver hair fell from her ears.
"Your race should also be a Succubus."
Josiah glanced at her bat-like wings and long tail. Some high-level Succubi even had goat-like legs. Unfortunately, Josiah had already eliminated quite a few of these high-level Succubi.
"Yes." She continued to reply in an extremely timid voice.
"Then why are you rejected by your own race?"
Josiah wanted to know the answer to this question. This Succubus was undoubtedly the one that Josiah liked the most out of all the Succubi.
Just her appearance alone was enough to make her the female lead of any movie. Although her temperament was a little weak, it was still much better than the bitchy Succubi from before.
At the very least, Josiah knew how to correct these shortcomings of cowardice and timidity. For a bitch like this … there was no saving it. There was really no saving it. Josiah had always kept a respectful distance from this kind of girl, no matter how beautiful she was.
"Raise your head and look at me."
The position of the female lead was temporarily set for her, so Josiah should start trying to correct her cowardly character. The first thing was to give her a chance to have confidence.
"Your Highness …"
"You don't have the right to choose, Miss Ino." Josiah said.
For some reason, when she heard the word 'Miss', her frail body trembled slightly again. In the end, she still slowly raised her head.
"Now answer my question. Why are you rejected by your own race?"
Josiah stared at her scarlet pupils and slowly repeated the question.
"Because …"
She gently bit her lower lip and then closed her eyes as if she had accepted her fate. She said the most fundamental reason for her humiliating life.
"I am a male."
A male? In other words, the pronoun 'she' was wrong. It should be 'he'?
Josiah looked up and down at the person in front of him again. No matter how he looked at her, she was an adorable girl. So, Josiah weighed the pros and cons and decided to use her to describe her for the time being.
"A male? It's okay. "
The moment Josiah said this, she opened her eyes and looked at Josiah with a surprised look.
"This … Your Highness, aren't you angry?"
The succubus race was almost entirely composed of women. Very few of them were born male succubi, and the status of male succubi in this race was extremely low because they did not inherit any succubus talent from birth. They were destined to be unable to improve their strength by absorbing the 'energy' of other lives.
Ino lived at the bottom of the succubus society. Her status was no different from an ordinary ghost. In the past, any customer who took a fancy to Ino would fly into a rage because of her gender.
When Ino learned that the prince had taken a fancy to her, she thought that the prince would fall into a rage of being deceived when he finally found out her gender.
"Not bad. You happen to meet the requirements."
When he said this, Josiah realized that there was a subtle change in the way the succubi working in the reception hall looked at Josiah. Even Ino, who was in front of him, covered her mouth in surprise.
Of course, Josiah knew that these guys had misunderstood something. Even in the Otherworld, same-sex relationships were still not accepted.
Fortunately, Josiah's sexual orientation was very normal.
"Your Highness, if you like it, it's okay to give this body to you. Just don't make me go back …"
Ino had inherited the cunning personality of the succubi. She still remembered the eyes of the succubi before they left. If His Highness was unwilling to accept her and drove her back … She could not imagine what kind of torture she would suffer.
"Body? No … I don't want your body. "
Josiah had no interest in men.
"Please don't worry, Your Highness. This is my … first time."
She had thought that His Royal Highness had chosen to keep her because he had a hobby in this area. Moreover, apart from her own body, she really had nothing else.
"It's not a matter of how many times."
Josiah thought for a moment and thought of a more suitable explanation.
"I'm going to give you a job. You succubi may be able to easily occupy a man's heart with your own body, but the job I'm going to give you, if you do well enough … You can easily capture the hearts of countless men and even women! They will like you, no matter what race they are. You will get the respect you deserve, the respect that is beyond this. "
Actors had always been a respectable profession. Those veteran actors had used their acting skills to leave behind too many classics for mankind. These spiritual treasures were far more important than physical pleasure.
"Can I really do it?"
Although Ino did not know what the job Josiah was talking about was, the love and respect that followed were extravagant hopes for her. The best situation she could think of when she came here was to live as the "Third Prince's toy".
"How would you know if you don't try? But first, change out of these clothes that are only slightly better than rags."
Josiah wrote Ino's name on the last piece of white paper and stamped it with a seal that represented his identity. He gave Ino the right to enter and exit the palace as the Third Prince.
"Zenas, take her to change clothes. Remember to change into men's clothes."
"Understood."
Zenas walked to the front and gestured for Ino to follow him. Ino took a step forward with some fear.
"Hold your head high and be more confident. Don't forget that you are a boy. Don't lose to those women." Josiah said.
