After I collapsed, I became a succubus

It was raining outside.Lucian woke up in this wet rain.He turned on the bed and looked out the window.

Vader's hands wrapped around him from behind, warm and strong.

"It's raining." Lucian said.

"It's just morning, tomorrow will be sunny." Vader said.

Lucian laughed.He raised his chin and leaned over to kiss Vader in the warm body temperature.

Vader kissed him delicately, letting his breath permeate every inch of Lucian's skin.But when the atmosphere was about to explode, he stopped.

"Don't do it?" Lucian lay on the bed and looked into his eyes.

"...Tomorrow is the wedding." Vader whispered, "I want you to be more energetic when you attend."

Lucian couldn't help laughing.He was so beautiful when he smiled, and the whole dark room was illuminated by those wine red eyes.He looked at Vader with those eyes that seemed to have light, and Vader turned his reddish face to the other side as if he was embarrassed to look at him.

"Can I... help you?" Lucian said in a breathless voice, stretching his slender fingers towards him.

"...Don't make a fuss, you won't be able to stop it when you make a fuss." Vader seriously put his hand to the other side.

Lucian couldn't help laughing again.The interior is warm and full of emotion.They looked like an ordinary, extremely loving young couple who were going to get married one day, like...

The confrontation of the day before yesterday never happened.

"Okay, get up." Vader finally pushed away Lucian who was leaning on him like a cat afraid of the cold and drawing circles with his fingers on his abdomen.Lucian rolled to the side, and said lazily, "What are you going to do?"

"The process of going through the wedding is rehearsal." Vader raised his eyebrows, "You won't forget, will you?"

"...How come, you wronged me."

Vader turned around and stared at him coldly, before Lucian felt uneasy, he stretched out his hands to grab the itchy flesh on Lucian's body.

Lucian was amused by him and giggled.Finally, Vader let go of his hand and said with a stinking expression: "Okay, get up and get dressed."

Vader put on his clothes with his back to Lucian.At that moment, the mask of the smile before Vader that always hung on Lucian's face disappeared.Only the indifferent and cold Lucian remained behind Vader.

He supported himself with one hand, imprinting Vader's back in his eyes.Between days and nights, when Vader faced him and his back, Lucian sometimes felt like he was split into two.A person always smiles sweetly, using his most familiar gestures and methods to deal with all situations.The other one is indifferent and dazed, like a bystander, or an observer who hides himself in a cocoon for self-protection, integrating all the scenes to be witnessed into his own eyes.

Now the observer had the upper hand again.The observer heard Vader say, "Let's go."

"……Um."

He put on the crimson dress with Vader's help.The dress is extremely luxurious, every inch of folds, every dark pattern of rose petals is exquisite.It complements Lucian's beauty, and it is a boutique made only for Lucian.Vader carefully fastened every button and every tie for him.

Vader paused as fingers touched his throat.

"……What's wrong?"

"It's nothing."

They looked at each other for a moment when they lowered their eyes and raised their eyes respectively.

"...I just thought... suddenly." Vader suddenly laughed.

It was a smile that absolutely shouldn't appear on his face, pure and gentle, not at all like a demon king who would destroy the world.He said, "I just suddenly felt...it's incredible to meet you."

"what?"

"Just now, I suddenly thought, if I hadn't met you, where would I be and what would I be doing now? Maybe I've already taken another path, and I wouldn't appear here." Vader said slowly, "Thinking of this, I feel... being able to marry you is like a miracle that can only be achieved after going through thousands of small probability choices."

"..."

"I'm very, very happy, Lucian," he said. "I'm really, really happy."

He shook his hand and bowed his head.Then he smiled and said, "Let's go."

"……Um."

Lucian wore the crimson dress and walked through the flower-filled corridor under Vader's leadership.The sides of the corridor are empty, only portraits and sculptures.

But Lucian knew that tomorrow the place would be full of people.They came from all corners of the country, knew Lucian's past, or heard Lucian's name.They would clap, smile or be surprised, watching Vader take his hand and lead him down the long corridor.

The dome of the castle is very high, and the sunlight shines in from all directions through the glass windows, falling on the freshly blooming flowers, on the marble pillars with delicate reliefs, and on the crystal chandelier above the head with candles.Lucian stood in the center of all the light, on the pure white carved round platform, with his back to the center of the hall with the colored windows.

His silver hair was like flowing moonlight, his lips were as red as petals, and his eyes were like clear lake water.He stood beside Vader, imaginary imaginary cheers coming to him from all directions.The white bouquet fell to the ground, and Vader leaned down, pushing the ring onto his finger.

Vader.

love him.

together with him.

Amidst all the imaginary cheers, Lucian's earlobes started to burn again.He saw Vader lift his finger and kiss the jewel on the face of his ring finger.

"I love you," he said, "do you love me?"

Purple eyes looked at him like shining amethyst.

"do you love me?"

do you love me?

do you love me?

you love……

"……I."

At this moment, Lucian, who was always good at speaking sweet words, felt that those three simple words seemed to weigh a thousand pounds.

"……I."

All the cheers came to him.

"……I love."

Every breath is like sucking the surrounding air dry.

He saw his body lose weight and seemed to be floating in the air.He was the examiner again, witnessing, looking coldly at himself as he made his statement.

"……I love you."

He saw himself saying this.

All illusions shattered at that moment.He watched himself being embraced by Vader, no one else was around.

"That's great," he heard Vader say, "I wish I could be here tomorrow and say that to you."

"... Does it feel that good?" Lucian said.

"I don't know why, from that moment just now, I suddenly felt that I should have said 'I love you' to you from the first day I met you." Vader buried his face on his shoulder, "But It’s not too late to start now.”

"..."

Vader is so happy, Lucian thought.

He raised his head and saw the towering dome of the palace.There seemed to be a Lucian on the dome—or, number five.

Number Five sat on the crystal chandelier, shaking his calf, and looked at him indifferently.

—Is this me?Lucian thought in a daze.Am I the one who hugged Vader and said "I love you" to him?

Am I number five, or Lucian?

There was no other person or sound in the empty hall.But when he turned to leave, he heard a cool laugh coming from behind him.

That laugh was Number Five's voice.

Lucian walked out of the hall with Vader in this trance-like voice.The shining white sky poured down on his head, and at that moment, he looked at the lake beside him.

He and Vader were reflected in the water of the lake.He watched himself until the face gradually deformed into a face disfigured by acid.

……

Lucian didn't know how he got back into the room.According to the customs of Moyu, the two parties cannot sleep in the same room the night before the wedding.Vader would still sleep here, but he would sleep in another room.

"Good night," Vader said.

"……Good night."

Lucian said.

He watched Vader's figure disappear down the corridor.Vader looked genuinely happy.

But Lucian was devastated.

He sat in the room, the burning pain from the moment the ring was put on still remained on his finger.Gradually, his face became more and more gloomy, as if he hated and hated himself from the bottom of his heart.

He gritted his teeth, countless pictures were spinning in his mind.Those pictures of kissing, entanglement, hugging, wearing rings, and earrings all seemed to become his enemies for a while.They surround him, looking at him coldly as he sits there, with veins popping out from the back of his hands due to exertion.

He suddenly felt nauseous.

"... Lucian." The system asked him tremblingly, "When do you plan to leave?"

"..."

"... Lucian?"

"……roll."

"...?!" The system was startled, "What's wrong with you? Suddenly losing your temper..."

"roll!"

The system was thrown into silent mode by Lucian.It was so anxious that it couldn't help it. It didn't care that it had been muted, and continued to yell: "What are you thinking, Lucian, tomorrow is the wedding. Didn't you say to leave before the wedding? Are you suddenly angry? What, Vader is just a hero in a small world, he..."

Lucian couldn't hear its voice.

At that moment, the system had a feeling that everything was about to go off the rails and lose control.It watched Lucian sitting on the bed without sleep all night, that lonely look reminded him of the original number five.

"...I'm so stupid."

When dawn broke, it heard Lucian's lazy voice.

system:? ?

It saw Lucian lay back on the bed soothingly, as if all the entanglements of last night had been emptied.Lucian turned over on the bed, and his expression became relaxed again.

— as if he had finally figured something out.

But now the system can't even judge whether Lucian has figured it out, or is he just pretending to be happy.

There was a knock on the door.Several maids filed in.They are wearing dresses and hair accessories.When seeing Lucian still in the room, the system noticed that the maid at the end quietly left the line and walked towards the other side of the corridor.

"She was reporting my whereabouts to Vader."

The system heard Lucian's voice.Lucian's voice was brisk, and he continued: "Didn't you notice? There are master guards inside and outside the room. Vader seems to let me sleep alone in a room. In fact, he is also on guard against my escape— — that's the way it is. We're all wary of each other."

"you……"

"Don't worry, everything will be over soon." Lucian said.

At that moment, the system's heart trembled like never before.It watched Lucian let the maids dress up in a very natural way, put on the gown, the headdress and exquisite necklaces and jewelry.It was not until he was about to put on the earrings that Lucian said the next word to the maids.

"Not this one, I don't like it," he said, "let's use the one I was wearing before. By the way, is Werther in the room?"

Pointing to the extremely luxurious earrings on the tray, he ordered a maid to go to Vader's room to pick up the earring he usually wears—the one that Vader prepared when he pierced his earlobe. Ruby earrings.

"Not here." The maid said, "His Highness Werther is setting up in another room."

The maid went to get the jewelry, but she didn't come back because she couldn't find it.Lucian finally got a little impatient.He said to the maids, "I'll find it myself."

As he walked all the way, Vader's bedroom was finally in front of him.Lucian said to the maids: "You wait outside, I will go in."

Vader never liked having too many strangers in their chambers, and everyone in the palace knew it.

After entering the bedroom, Lucian started searching in front of the embarrassed maid.Finally, he quickly found the earring in the deeply hidden box.

He held the earring in the palm of his hand, and shot out suddenly, knocking out the maid!

The maid was caught off guard and limply fell to the ground.

At this moment, Lucian jumped out of the side window.A large number of guards are outside his room, and there is a dead corner in Vader's bedroom.He walked out along this blind corner.

Go faster and faster, go faster and faster.

The corners of his robe floated up, like a red cloud, or like a fleeing flower.Finally, he arrived at the small door with few people.He snatched a horse and rushed out of the small gate with lightning speed!

The guards didn't realize that someone had escaped through this small door until after he fled.They growled to send men after them.But Lucian's speed was really too fast.When he was Master Sissel, his horsemanship was also top-notch.

The horses crossed the babbling stream and finally reached the cliff.Before reaching the cliff, he pinched the seal in his hand!

Burton's figure came out of the shadow behind the tree and appeared in front of his eyes.After seeing the well-dressed Lucian, he smiled and said, "I came on time, didn't I?"

"Let's go." Lucian said coldly.

He doesn't seem to have the slightest interest in people laughing.But Burton didn't care.He changed his body into a dragon shape.At the moment when the dragon spread its wings, Lucian also jumped off the cliff and landed on him!

Lucian sat on the dragon indifferently.He knew that in the sky, he was the conspicuous red.In the distance, there seemed to be commotion in the castle.Burton said: "It seems that Vader found that you escaped."

"..."

"Has your plan been completed? I guess, has it been completed?" Burton said, "I can see the light gradually strengthening on your body, which is the trace of charging, isn't it? His rapidly rising hatred, in the Gives you the energy to leave."

"..."

Familiar energy flooded into Lucian's mind.Lucian also released the system at this time.He heard the surprised voice of the system: "Lucian, I feel that the energy value has reached 90%!!"

"..."

Lucian turned his head expressionlessly on the dragon's back.At that moment, he seemed to see a black figure on the cliff, looking at him with scarlet eyes that were about to bleed.

But that's impossible.Burton is fast.They had already flown above the sky that Vader could not see.

"You look in a bad mood," Burton said.

"...is there any?"

Lucian's voice was a little lazy.Burton then smiled and said, "No. [-], maybe it's because you're not used to it yet. But for other traversers, it's very common for a male protagonist to fall in love with a raider in a fast-traveling world. It's normal. Just like the theorem that is necessary to complete the task, this love is also like a stereotyped consumable. Why do you feel guilty for such a consumable? Think about it, how many times have you been in love with No. [-]? There are ten male protagonists. You are just not used to it now. And we are the... lonely fast travelers outside these worlds. Do you think so too?"

"Our life itself is different from them. Even if it is not you, there will be other fast travelers who will come to attack him. They are just male protagonists who are like an assembly line in each world—at least they are different from fast travelers. .”

"...Don't use this kind of language to describe it." Lucian said annoyedly, "You talk too much nonsense, let's go."

Burton smiled lowly.He drives the program back.A warm, return-to-control glow came on at that moment.It was a beam of light that no one in the native world could see.A beam of light belongs to him, and a beam of light belongs to Lucian.At the same time, their bodies were pulled upwards.

This should have been the most suitable ending.All the accidents that have happened have been perfectly made up for at this moment.Lucian, who returned to the control center with [-]% hatred, was still No. [-]—the perfect but heartless traverser who had never overturned a car or made any mistakes.

Until the system saw Lucian blinking vigorously.

It saw Lucian lowering his head and blinking vigorously.Burton also saw Lucian's expression at this moment.At that moment, he seemed to have thought of something, and panic finally appeared on his once gentle face.He shouted: "You..."

"madness."

He heard Lucian's voice.

"what?"

"Disgusting, stupid, disgusting." He heard Lucian's voice, "It's really stupid, you say, why would a fast traveler do such a stupid thing? But..."

"what are you going to do!"

Burton stretched out his hand forcefully at that moment.He felt terrified that he was really about to lose something completely—before he had time to confess anything.He reached out his hand to grab Lucian's corner, but Lucian's crimson corner slipped from his palm.

He saw Lucian close his eyes, turn around indifferently, and then make a gesture that no one can stop...

Jump down from the rising beam of light at that moment.

"Number five!!"

Burton made a piercing sound.But it was too late for him to stop it.He was completely pulled out of this world by the control center - through this rising beam of light.

The last thing Lucian left in his eyes was just a red shadow.

And the figure in the crimson robe resolutely jumped out of the beam of light and fell from it.He fell at a high speed, and the hem of his clothes was blown up by the strong wind, bursting open.He closed his eyes due to the strong wind, he didn't hear the screams of the system, and he didn't see the beam of light that tried in vain to catch him back.

He returned to this world amidst the whistling wind.
