NOVEL WEB Chapter 18: Chapter 18 Short Fight
«You'd better surrender right now,» shouted one of the brigands. «Your shield will fail sooner or later, and we'll shoot you. But if you lay down your weapons now, we'll let the men go.»
«And the women?» the archer asked mockingly.
«We know you're extremely demanding and arrogant,» the man grinned back. «But the boys and I miss the company of women, so you won't leave us so easily. Here, in a few days, if you behave yourself...»
"Talk, talk. Now Master Valeria will finish her spell and you'll be nothing but ashes,» the archer became angry. «Or do you think that's the shield she's holding up?»
While most of the crowd watched the altercation, the sorceress prepared her ritual, and the brigands lazily shot from the bushes, a new figure appeared on the street. Tall, incredibly flexible, with fiery red hair and large breasts, she seemed to be the embodiment of passion.
Judging by her small, graceful horns and blood-red pupils, she was a succubus. She was dressed accordingly - in a red leather belt with pieces of red leather hanging down the front and back, covering her breasts and ass, and high-heeled sandals.
The succubus came from the opposite side of the carriage from the bandits, so she went unnoticed by the defenders at first. She made no sudden movements, just walked, her hips swaying slightly. The bandits saw her and, apparently by prior agreement, ignored her emphatically.
As she rounded the carriage in a wide arc, the succubus stood in full view of the guards and began to methodically flex her entire body, rotating her hips and smoothing her body with her hands.
It looked so erotic that I was literally fixated on her seductive curves. It was clearly the outward manifestation of a special ability, and the entire male guard of the carriage turned to stare at the succubus, drooling.
The ladies on the roof were unaffected - the sorceress was still drawing a magical picture and humming a spell, and the archer was still arguing with the bandits.
When she was sure she had attracted attention, the succubus gestured for the soldiers to overturn the carriage and watched them with a victorious grin, her hand on her hip. The men turned their backs on the brigands and, piling on at once, easily carried out the order.
Just then, the sorceress finished her spell. The wave of flame she had summoned should have swept away the bandits and the bushes behind them without touching the defenders.
But because of the overturned carriage, the spell worked differently, and the flames, flying in a high arc, covered the men of the guard as well as the attackers, incinerating them instantly. A few spatters even reached the horses, which roared wildly, tore their harnesses, and galloped off down the road.
The fallen archer noticed the succubus and managed to shoot her in an incredible turn. The girl had no time to gather herself for a proper landing and, hitting the ground hard, rolled back into the bushes on the opposite side of the road, where she froze for a while, gasping for breath. Her bow remained beside the carriage.
The sorceress landed much softer, though she dropped her staff and fell sideways to the ground. The woman, however, rose quickly and began to fix her tattered dress and shake it from the dust.
The arrow struck the succubus right between the appetizing hemispheres of her large naked breasts, and she fell dead on her back before she even realized what had happened. The inhumanly beautiful face of the beauty was frozen in surprise.
The soldiers and bandits were reduced to ashes. I was lucky to be far away from the magic, so I was only a little scared.
