From Imp to Demon God: Conquering the Demon World With a Succubus-Chapter 43: Nyxara’s Cousins

"When will the battle occur, auntie?"

The Guardian of Scarlet Bond grinned. "Tomorrow morning. I have just informed their instructor that I have just arrived, too. Although he suggested if it would be possible for all the students we had to duel against theirs.

Of course, only the new batch since they’re the only one included in the tradition."

Pink, Peach, and Magenta were taken aback. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Pink asked, "What do you mean, Auntie?" Her smile was forced.

Like her auntie speculated, she deeply disliked public humiliation. If her Blood Knight was lost before her life as a student started, she could not dare to imagine what her future lay ahead once she became a student.

Despite the Royal Academy being filled with laws, even laws supported by sigils, wouldn’t force other nobles to like her.

The least she wanted to happen was for her to be alone. Although it was already secured she would be accompanied by her two other gullible cousins, they were only clinging for her in hopes of not being left around like she feared.

She was aware her talent was only average, so, in order for her to graduate, she had to find a backer, too.

Visiting her auntie was also one of the reasons to gain her favoritism, but to think Violet had already gotten ahead of her.

The difference in treatment between her and violet was so obvious she wished she hadn’t come.

The Guardian of Scarlet Bond said, "All of you will have to battle against them tomorrow morning."

"But—"

"I was just playing around with you all earlier." The Guardian of Scarlet Bond smiled at her. "Every future student of mine has to fight against them."

Her smile remained, but for some reason, it exuded a dangerous aura, causing them to shiver in fear.

"Don’t disappoint me."

The three succubus were frozen. Their minds turned blank.

Seeing their reaction, the Guardian of Scarlet Bond burst into laughter.

She took out her hand fan and fanned on her face. Her hair fluttered, causing her beauty to enhance, resulting in the Blood Knights staring at her to be enthralled.

Myles stared at the Blood Knights, who were charmed by the Guardian of Scarlet Bond, and secretly sighed.

I couldn’t even sense the demonic energy produced by that demon. A simple fan on her face already made them fall into her charms.

At the same time, the Guardian of Scarlet Bond’s soft voice echoed.

"I was just playing with you again. Like what Violet said, it doesn’t matter if your Blood Knights win or lose. What matters the most is the lesson they will learn."

The Guardian of Scarlet Bond stopped fanning and put away her hand fan.

She said in a stern voice, "What do you think matters? They have a great start but stumbled and failed to continue in the end? Or a slow start but eventually reached the finish line?"

Pink, Peach, and Magenta were stunned. They immediately reflected on their auntie’s words.

The Guardian of Scarlet Bond smiled. "The future relies on the present, but the present doesn’t determine our future."

Just as she finished her words, her eyes lit up.

She beamed a smile. "Your seniors are here. Stand up and greet them at the door."

The three cousins instantly stood up, but Peach and Magenta staggered when they realized their legs turned jelly.

Pink was also about to lose her balance, but she managed to stabilize herself earlier than them.

Afterwards, they walked towards the door, followed by their Blood Knights.

They stood patiently in front of the door.

Nyxara followed them and stood beside Magenta while distancing herself from them.

Eventually, the door opened, and while Nyxara was waiting to see her cousins, she was startled when her cousins suddenly shouted, "Greetings, cousins!"

She turned towards them and realized they were now bowing deeply.

She bowed her head but did not shout, knowing it was already too late.

Only hoping her senior cousins heard her voice blending among the shouts earlier.

"Oh? Are these our new cousins? Aren’t they a bit too timid?"

Nyxara tilted her head upwards and saw her cousins, wearing light armor, at least in C-Rank, standing imposingly.

There seemed to be a leader among them as she stood in the middle and was standing closer to them.

Behind her were at least six more of her cousins.

When she raised her head, they instantly caught her attention, causing seven pairs of eyes to meet hers.

She shuddered. The aura they exuded, as well as the demonic energy they were emitting were so refined it put a lot of pressure on her.

"Oh?" The leader was amused. "Rank 2 Greater Demon already? What did your mother feed to you?"

Nyxara bowed and replied, "I am Violet, daughter of Lady of Chains and Whisphered Vows. Nice to meet you, cousin."

"Violet." The leader was intrigued. "That reminds me, we call each other with numbers. Since you dare to name yourself as one of the colors that matches your skin, why won’t we try to do the same, cousins?"

She turned around and asked, "Cousin number 5, you know color a lot. Can you name me?"

Cousin number 5, who was chewing gum and blowing a bubble gum bubble as it exploded when asked by her Cousin number 1, replied, "Your skin is colored red. But, to call you red is ugly. Why not Rose?"

"Rose?" The Cousin number 1’s eyes sparkled. "Rose... I like it. Alright, you all should call me Rose at this moment."

Her cousins nodded.

Rose said to Cousin number 5, "Cousin number 5, name yourself first and then begin to name others.

Ah, let’s see." Rose turned towards Pink, Magenta, and Peach and asked, "What are your names? It should also be colored too, right?"

Pink took the initiative as she nodded.

She said, "Yes, we changed our name after we got to know Violet. I am Pink. She is Peach. This is Magenta."

Rose then turned around and said to her cousins, "Now, those names already existed. Got it, Cousin number 5?"

"I am not Cousin number 5." The bubblegum bubble popped on Cousin number 5’s mouth. "I’m Cherry. I like Cherry."
