In Border City, the shady and flirtatious atmosphere was spread across the street, especially near the entrance where many girls were trying to get their customers for the day.
With the new leader of Succubus coming into reign, the street and housing conditions looked better than before. Many new people also visited Border City from the other Underground City after hearing the news, and that invited many strange individuals or even high-ranking Nobles.
Neon lights lit the area with a seductive light. Sweet voices came from the girls trying to get customers rang around the area. A pungent smell of flowers drifted around, and many people wore hoods to hide their identities as Nobles walked down the street.
The security around this area was increased. Many members of Raven patrolled in a team of five. Their scary looks managed to drive away most people who tried to make trouble, but some drunk customers still needed to be dealt with.
Among them, the most conspicuous individual was a robed young lady escorted by 2 large build men hiding their faces and body with black coats. The weapon they strapped on their waists poked out slightly, and only a glance was needed to see they were made of good quality materials.
So they became targets.
"Young lady~ We are also offering a special service here."
A seductive Succubus with short light pink hair and exposed clothing, which looked like a bondage costume, stepped in front of them and gave the lady in the front a flyer.
The two escorts were about to step forward in response, but they stopped once the young lady raised her hand.
"We're here to have a negotiation, not to make trouble." The girl spoke in a low voice while raising her head toward the men. Her light blue hair poked up slightly under her hood, and her cute face was apparent.
Then she turned toward the sexy Succubus with a soft smile.
"Thank you. I might come to visit later."
"I will be waiting for it~"
It was just an empty word, but she tried to make a friendly impression on the people around the city. What happened earlier when they had just entered this city was a mistake; she had already scolded her escorts for it.
Princess Carissa was a cunning individual who would do anything to reach her goal. And she was well aware of it since she was just a little kid. Being raised in the Royal Castle meant the competition was strict. It was even more so when she was the first Princess and had two younger male siblings.
Her fate was just to be a tool to forge relationships with other nobles or the church, just as what happened before when her father tried to marry her to the Paladin, which was canceled because the Paladin didn't want to marry her.
Though being rejected frontally hurt her a little as she took pride in her appearance, she was happy she found another one she could use to reach her goal.
"Let's go."
She beckoned her escorts to follow her. Her goal was to meet this city's new 'leader' after getting interesting information from her 'friend' back in the Royal Academy.
That night, she had tested the Paladin's reaction. He had noticed her, but he didn't do anything about it. A day after that was to test the church's reaction to an unreasonable demand, but they did nothing and just retreated back to the Academy City.
'It's either the Paladin knows my plan and supports me, or he just didn't want to get involved with the government's issue.'
Either way, Princess Carissa had already prepared many plans to deal with every situation that came into her mind. She would spare no effort to reach her goal, to the point she had already taken over the Royal Guard and gained their full loyalty without the King's knowledge.
"Fufufu."
A low giggle escaped her lips as she thought of a beautiful future. She stopped in front of a nightclub said to be the place for the leaders of this city to gather.
They immediately entered, but someone from the entrance stopped them once again.
"Robe and hooded cape aren't allowed inside." The bald man spoke strictly, narrowing his eyes at the group.
This time, the escorts didn't do anything as the Princess immediately lowered her hood.
"Is this fine? I won't wear the hood inside." She asked, gesturing to her escorts to take their hood down.
They complied and followed her orders, revealing their face and short brown hair. One of them was young, while the other looked like a middle-aged man. If Arthur were here, he would recognize them as the Knights who ordered Sophia and the others to retreat from that village.
The bald man squinted his eyes, looking over them for a second. He immediately knew who the young lady was, and probably the escorts. Blue hair wasn't something you could find anywhere, after all.
"Don't create any trouble. The leaders are still having a meeting inside."
With the last warning, he stepped to the side and allowed them to enter. It wasn't his job to judge people, and besides… he had already gotten instruction from the highest order in this city. He didn't dare to go against them, especially the new leader.
"Thank you." The Princess smiled warmly and stepped inside the establishment.
Once she stepped inside, it was as if she was blown away into a different world. What lay inside was something she had never seen in the Virtue Kingdom.
Loud music blasting, her body trembled just by hearing it. Sexy women danced on a stage around a pole with close to no clothes covering them. Even if the Princess was crazy and had a twisted desire, she was still a pure woman from the Virtue Kingdom. So the sight inside the establishment overwhelmed her.
The knights were no different. The young one averted his gaze downward, trying not to look at anything.
Just by entering this establishment, the three of them heard the notification that they got 3 Sins. That was how sinful this place was.
The older knight did better, mainly because he already had a wife and was slightly experienced. He tapped the Princess' shoulder to pull her back from the unexpected sight.
Princess Carissa's body jolted slightly before she took a deep breath. The smell of alcohol and drugs mixed in the air made her frown, but it also calmed her down slightly as she realized the place she was in.
"Let's go."
Trying to hide her embarrassment, the Princess spoke in a commanding tone and went toward the corner to the so-called VIP area where 5 individuals were seated.
No, it was better to say 4 individuals were seated, and one man was used as a seat for a beautiful woman with long purple hair tied in a ponytail and marvelous horns on her head.
Feeling disgusted, Princess Carissa wanted to go away from that table, but she couldn't. That table was her destination and goal. Sitting around the round table filled with drinks were the leaders of this city, and the one sitting on a man was the so-called new leader.
Approaching them with a trained smile, Princess Carissa chirped like an energetic young lady.
"It's nice to meet you."
Everyone around the VIP area turned to her with curious eyes. The new leader smiled back seductively, and the Princess thought.
'It seems they have already expected my arrival.'
If so, then it would be quick.
"May I have your time for a few minutes?"
"Of course." The purple-haired girl, Beatrice, replied. "Who would say no to you, Your Highness? Please, let's have a nice talk."
