Chapter 681

Succubus City, a clan territory that occupied an extremely wide area.

A man was waiting in one of the buildings in this clan territory.

The man was very handsome. His brows revealed a sense of elegance and confidence that others could clearly sense. He was like a prince that only existed in a fairy tale. Whether it was his appearance or temperament, he belonged to the type that could make girls scream and want to start a vigorous relationship with him.

However, this beautiful man was focused and carefully cleaning a portrait. From time to time, his eyes revealed some longing, infatuation, and admiration.

If this man were to look at them with such a gaze, most of the girls in the world would instantly fall into the river of love, right?

However, the man only seemed to have eyes for the person in the portrait.

Upon closer inspection, the person in the portrait was actually a woman that could cause the downfall of a country, a woman that could make all men in the world fall in worship.

Who else could it be other than Chafine?

The man continued to clean and maintain this portrait. Next to him were more and more portraits, all of which were of Chafine.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see how infatuated this man was with the person in the portrait.

Not long after, a voice rang out in the studio.

"You're still so infatuated with Her Highness Succubus, Gray."

The one who said this was a man from the Demons.

He had a rather androgynous appearance and a head of silver hair. Although he was not as handsome as the handsome men in the studio, he had an indescribable sense of beauty that made people linger on him.

Such a man from the Demons silently appeared in the studio, but he did not attract the attention of the man called Gray at all.

"Hart?" Gray continued to carefully clean the portrait. He smiled contentedly and said without raising his head, "What's wrong? Did you run into some trouble this time that you need my help? "

Gray's words made the Demons called Hart very unhappy.

"You say it as if I wouldn't come to you for no reason," Hart said reproachfully. "What a waste of our many years of friendship."

Hearing this, Gray was completely indifferent.

"Don't I know you?" Gray picked up another portrait. As he cleaned it, he said leisurely, "If it was in the past, you would still come to me for a drink. But ever since you reached the Legendary rank and became the leader of the Succubus race, as well as Her Highness Chafine's cadre, you don't have that kind of leisure anymore, do you?"

"… Do you think I want to?" Hart's expression became serious. He sighed and said faintly, "If I could, I really wish to go back to the way I used to be, roaming the world with you and adventuring everywhere. Not like now, dealing with all kinds of boring affairs all day."

These words were met with a mocking scolding from Gray.

These words were met with a laugh from Gray. Gray didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "You're indeed the kind of person who can't stay idle, and you really don't want to sit in the clan's land all day dealing with affairs, but I don't believe you're willing to go back to the past and leave this place."

"of" of this sentence.

This was almost certain.

If there was a reason, there was only one reason.

That was, there was an existence whose beauty was unparalleled in the world. Countless people fell head over heels for her and went crazy for her.

In the past, Hart had never met that person, so he could run around as he pleased and didn't want to stay here.

But ever since he reached the Legendary rank, Hart had the qualifications to come into contact with that person.

And after seeing that person, Hart had completely fallen for her.

That was why he had willingly chosen this kind of life. From a person who could not sit still and liked to wander around, he had become someone who was willing to stay in the clan, stay in the Succubus City, and even sit in the position of the clan leader. He had even done all he could to become a cadre.

Not for anything else, but just to be able to see that person one more time.

"Sure enough, you understand me." Hart suddenly laughed and said, "But you don't have the qualifications to say that, do you?"

Just like how Gray understood Hart, Hart also understood Gray clearly.

"If I hadn't invited you to meet Lady Chafne by chance, you wouldn't have accepted my invitation to become my Taowu clan's guest and stay here." Hart laughed and said, "A dignified Legendary rank human is actually willing to stay in the Demon Realm and not return to the human realm. Back then, many people fell into chaos because of this decision of yours. Don't tell me you've forgotten."

Hart's words made Gray's eyes flash with a trace of nostalgia.

At that time, the decision he made had indeed caused a lot of chaos and trouble.

There was no other way.

"If you were still in the human realm, would it have been Alidia's turn to become the human race's number one?" Hart said disdainfully, "That kid only improved by leaps and bounds under your guidance. You can be considered half a mentor to him."

Upon hearing this, Gray shook his head.

"That kid is indeed talented. After so many years, I'm afraid he is already very close to the limit." Gray said solemnly, "In terms of potential, I can't compare to him, so I can't tell how strong he is now."

"No matter how strong he is, can he be stronger than you?" Hart said disapprovingly, "No one knows you better than me, old friend. Even in the entire Succubus Territory, apart from that damned stone girl Liel, no one is your match. I don't believe that Alidia can be stronger than you."

"What about you?" Gray glanced at Hart and said faintly, "It's been so many years. Back then, you said that you would trample Liel under your feet and become the strongest demon in the Succubus Territory. How is it now?"

Hart was instantly speechless.

"It seems that you are still not Liel's match."

Gray looked at his close friend of many years in amusement and pointed out the lack of confidence in his heart.

"Hmph." Hart snorted coldly and said unwillingly, "If not for that stone girl's' eyes' are too powerful, how could I be weaker than her?"

"Those 'eyes' are indeed terrifying." Gray agreed with this statement, then changed the topic and said, "Alright, hurry up and tell me, what do you want me to do this time?"

From Gray's tone, it could be seen that he was already used to this kind of thing.

After all, he was a hanger-on of the Succubus Race.

Many years ago, as a famous genius of the Human Race, he met Hart, who had come to the Human Realm from the Devil Realm, by chance. From then on, the two of them had an ill-fated relationship.

Therefore, when Hart invited him to the Demon Realm and stroll around the Succubus Race's territory, Gray did not refuse, which proved that their relationship was indeed deep.

But it was that one choice that robbed Gray of the rest of his life.

Because he met that person here, and because of that, he fell.

Since then, Gray decided not to return to the human world, but to stay here forever.

Because of this, Gray accepted Hart's invitation and joined the Succubus Race after Hart became the leader of the Succubus Race, becoming a hanger-on of the Succubus Race.

It was because of Gray's help that the Succubus Race could become the second strongest race in the Succubus City, second only to the Stone Lady Race.

Otherwise, the Succubus Race, as the number one race in the Succubus territory with three Legendary powerhouses, would not be able to compete with the Stone Lady Race.

Over the years, Gray had fought for the Succubus Race many times, and his status in the Succubus Race could be said to be second only to the patriarch, Hart. He was even the true number one powerhouse of the Succubus Race.

Compared to Hart, his strength was indeed much stronger.

And Hart would only ask Gray for help when he encountered a major problem that even he could not solve.

This time, it was obviously the case.

That was what Gray thought.

However …

"You really misunderstood me this time." Hart suddenly said, "I just came to you because of something that happened in the Succubus City recently, and wanted to talk to you about it. Otherwise, you will definitely blame me afterward."

"Oh?" Gray did not seem to believe it, and said casually, "I'd like to hear, what can make me blame you?"

Hart immediately looked at Gray.

"This is a matter that has caused quite a stir in Charm Demon City recently." Hart said word by word, "It is said that a human boy came to the Succubus City and was personally invited to the Succubus Castle by Lady Chafnie. He lives on the top floor of the Succubus Castle."

Gray's hand that was wiping the painting suddenly stopped.

Seeing this, Hart acted as if he did not see it and muttered to himself.

"As long as one is in the Succubus City, everyone knows that the top floor of the Succubus Castle is Lady Chafnie's exclusive living quarters. Unless there is an unavoidable event that requires all the officers to gather together for a meeting, Lady Chafnie will not let anyone enter the top floor."

"Even for us officers, apart from Liel, no one else is allowed to enter the top floor without being summoned."

"Not to mention living there, except for Lady Chafnie's sisters, who else can receive such treatment?"

"Now, an inexplicable human boy did this, and the Succubus City is now very lively because of this matter."

Gray was silent for a long time as he listened to Hart's words that had a hidden meaning.

After a while, Gray put down the painting in his hand.

"Human … huh?"

Gray murmured and finally looked at Hart.

"Who is he?"

Gray finally became serious.

"I asked a member of a weak clan that he came into contact with, and the leader of the Sand Scale clan said that he did not reveal his identity." Hart shrugged and said, "But for a human to be so valued by Her Highness, some people think that the one who suddenly appeared and disappeared for a thousand years is more suitable."

Saying that, Hart laughed mischievously.

"If it is really that person, then he must have a lot to do with you."

"Am I right?"

"His Royal Highness Grekville Mithra?"

In response to Hart's teasing, Gray was expressionless.

"Let's go," Gray said, "Let's go meet that person."
