Chapter 2234: I-I enjoyed it.
"Sister Sharnoth~"
While Nux and Shadow were enjoying their time together, inside another room, Sharnoth was surrounded by the rest of the women, and the looks they had on their faces when they stared at her were... not good.
At least not in the eyes of Sharnoth, who stared at these people and felt like a cornered mouse surrounded by numerous cats who were prepared to play with it before devouring it whole.
It was a strange feeling, especially considering Sharnoth was stronger than every single one of them—so much that even if all of them came at her at the same time, it still wouldn’t make any difference in the outcome of the battle.
Sharnoth was clearly superior but... when she was being stared at with those eyes... she shifted uncomfortably and—
"Y-Yes...?"
She asked, tilting her head as she moved back, creating a little distance between them.
But that little movement did not help since the women just walked closer to her, and as Sharnoth tried to move even further, the bed’s headrest stopped her.
If before, she just felt like a cornered mouse, now she was one.
And the cats...
They began their hunt.
"Sister Sharnoth~"
Allura called out, leading the charge.
"I heard you had a lot of... fun. I heard it very, very clearly."
"W-What...?"
Sharnoth stuttered, trying to feign ignorance but—
"Do you want me to show it?"
Allura asked, her voice laced with amusement. Then, without waiting for Sharnoth’s answer, the succubus took a deep breath, and with a flushed face, she bit her lips and—
"Hnnnngggg~
Nux!! Nux! Don’t leave me! Hard—"
"STOP!! STOP!!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING!?"
Once again, Sharnoth screamed, her face now completely flushed, and Allura could swear she could see smoke coming out of her head.
"Oh? Do you recall it now? Or do I..."
Allura asked, not needing to complete her words.
"I...
I do..."
Sharnoth lowered her head, trying to hide her face. For the first time in her entire life she felt... so pressured by someone weaker than her.
"So you do."
Allura smiled.
Then she walked forward and sat on the bed right in front of her.
"Then what do you remember, Sister? Mind sharing the details?"
The succubus asked, her grin becoming so wide that Skyla and Evane actually began feeling bad for Sharnoth.
"I... I don’t..."
Sharnoth didn’t know how to respond but then—
"Sister Sharnoth, it’s alright, you don’t have to. Sister Allura is just teasing you."
Skyla spoke up as she appeared next to her new sister and glared at the older one. Allura glanced at Skyla and raised her eyebrow, not liking how her fun was ruined.
But then—
"Teasing me...?"
Sharnoth tilted her head, confused.
"Yes, she does it with everyone once they become a Leander, so don’t think too much."
"Become a Leander...?"
At those words, Sharnoth frowned even more strongly—a reaction the women did not fail to notice. Well, everyone except for Skyla, that is.
"Yes, after you—mmhhfff!!"
The innocent maid tried to answer but suddenly, Thyra appeared behind her and grabbed her mouth. Rune didn’t waste time either and quickly grabbed the maid’s hands, stopping her from resisting too much, and Melia took the chance to put the three of them inside a Blood Dome, separate from Sharnoth.
"Wha—?"
Everything happened so quickly that Sharnoth couldn’t even react in time. Of course, at her level, her reaction speed should be much higher than these women’s but... her body was currently in a resting stage. After all, all her piled-up stress, her worries, her inhibitions... they were all forced out of her body and replaced by something... far, far more... addicting.
A pleasure she had never experienced in her long, long life.
Obviously her body and her mind were in no state to react to things happening around her. Not to mention this was Nux’s Universe—a place she knew for a fact was safe for her—so she too had let her guard down, even though she was currently intimidated by all these women around her.
"Don’t worry about her."
Suddenly, Amaya spoke up, walking up to Sharnoth with a gentle smile on her face—a smile that made Sharnoth frown.
This entire situation felt suspicious. Very, very suspicious.
This wasn’t her first time interacting with these women. Ever since she came here, she had interacted with them quite a few times.
Some of these women stared at her as if she were a challenge—someone they wanted to defeat in a battle—but since they weren’t currently at the same level, they were waiting.
Some women actively discussed plans, strategies, and things they could do to help Nux—a discussion she liked to participate in since she had a huge pile of debt she needed to repay to Nux, and helping him this way was the least she could do.
Some women, especially this succubus in front of her, always talked to her strangely, like she had something in her mind when she looked at her, but she never said it out loud.
And some... like Amaya—
Always stared at her with a look of disapproval.
As if she wanted nothing more than for her to leave—something she could just not do since she had already promised herself to Nux and was prepared to serve him for the rest of her life in... any way possible.
But today... something felt different.
No, it wasn’t different. It was... eerie.
To think the woman who always had that look of disapproval now had a smile on her face...
Something was definitely wrong here. She just did not know what it was.
For now, however, Sharnoth just smiled back. After all, no matter how she looked at her, this woman was Nux’s wife—one of the few people Nux cherished more than his own life. She couldn’t be rude to her just because she looked at her funny.
"Did you enjoy it...?"
Suddenly, Amaya asked, the gentle smile on her face still not fading.
"What are you..."
Sharnoth tried to ask but—
"You know what I am talking about. We are all grown-ups here, let’s not waste our time with these games, okay?
And I am not asking you for any details, now am I?
I just want to know if you had fun."
Amaya interrupted with a light smile. When she excused the details, Aisha tried to interrupt but one look from Amaya was more than enough to stop her.
After all, Aisha understood it as well—this was more important than some details.
This... would benefit them all in the long run.
"I-I enjoyed it."
Sharnoth nodded.
"So you do not feel bad at all, huh?"
Amaya pressed, and Sharnoth—
She lowered her head even further.
"A-All of you were busy, and Nux came to me. I had promised myself to him so I could not reject him."
The Chaos Heir answered, and the moment she did, Amaya’s eyes shined.
And not just hers—the rest of the women were the same. Some even exchanged light smiles, smiles even Sharnoth did not catch. The Chaos Heir was just too confused to understand anything, as for the women—
They understood it.
Either Nux hadn’t asked her about it or Sharnoth had forgotten about it.
The woman still believed that instead of becoming part of Nux’s family, she was just... a subordinate—someone below them in the ’hierarchy.’
If they played their cards right...
They might be able to get... a few more ’turns’ out of this.
"So that is to say, as long as any one of us is free, you would step back, correct?"
"I-If Nux wants me then..."
Sharnoth answered with a stutter, and Amaya raised her eyebrow even further—
"What did you say?"
"I meant... i-it is Nux’s decision... i-if he comes to me, then as someone who has promised herself to him, I cannot reject him, I...
I will not go against my words."
"Right."
Amaya nodded.
"So as long as Nux doesn’t come to you himself, you will stay put, is that right?"
"..."
Sharnoth didn’t say anything, but Amaya did not stop.
"What? That is what you meant to say, correct? Or..."
The devourer then narrowed her eyes as she walked even closer, standing right on top of the Chaos Heir—
"Or do you have... some other ideas in your mind?"
"N-No. I-I do not."
Sharnoth lowered her head and nodded. Even if she wanted to go against this woman and push her away, she was Nux’s wife. There was nothing she could do.
"Good."
Amaya nodded, satisfied.
"So I can assume that when Nux gives you a ’turn’ to spend time with him, if any of us wishes, we can come to you and take your turn to spend time with him as long as Nux wishes to spend time with us, yes?"
She asked one last time, making sure everything was clear, and Sharnoth—she...
She didn’t know why...
But she felt like if she said yes to that question, she would regret it for the rest of her life, so instead—
"Heh."
She grinned.
"To think there will be a day when weaklings like you would dare to surround and bully... me.
Oh, how low have I fallen~"
Sharnoth let her other self take over.
