EP. 24 The Turning Point of the Incubus Dungeon (2)

“Everyone, do one last check!”

“Hey, make sure to double-check the number of potions!”

From early morning, the interior of the Phoenix Guild was bustling with activity. Today, two teams were gearing up for dungeon conquest.

Guild members moved around, inspecting the equipment of hunters and preparing for the final stage of the expedition.

Normally, such meticulous preparations were unnecessary. Dungeon conquest was a common occurrence, and there was no need to go to such lengths. However, this time was an exception.

Both teams leading today’s dungeon conquest had an important factor, both team leaders were the children of the guild’s leader. They were the youngest son, Jung Woo-jin, and the daughter, Jung Ye-rin.

While it was unlikely, if either of them made a mistake, the guild’s atmosphere would undoubtedly plunge into despair. Everyone was diligently preparing, not wanting to be the cause of any trouble.

Jung Ye-rin was also making thorough preparations before embarking on the dungeon conquest. She thought about the man she had talked to some time ago.

‘… Lee Kang-hyun.’

He was the man who had provided her with information about the Goblin Lord. If what he said was true, then the Goblin Lord wasn’t as formidable as they had feared. In fact, it was a monster that anyone could handle with caution.

However, due to the fear of an A-rank monster, no one had tried to gather detailed information about the Goblin Lord. Most top-tier hunters chose to confront it head-on, while those less capable simply avoided the Goblin Lord.

But Lee Kang-hyun was different. He didn’t follow the paths that others had taken; instead, he walked his own path. She had felt it during their conversation.

‘If his words about this dungeon are all true…’

It could turn the tables on the guild’s internal dynamics. To do that, she thought:

‘I must bring him in, no matter what.’

Regardless of the conditions, Lee Kang-hyun had to be recruited. That’s what she was thinking at that moment.

Just then, someone called her name. She knew who it was, but she decided to ignore him. Despite being siblings, they didn’t have a good relationship, so this was the approach she chose.

“Hey, you dare ignore your brother’s words? You’ve grown quite bold.”

Jung Ye-rin responded with indifference. Even if she saw her brother now, it wouldn’t bring up any positive emotions. Jung Woo-jin had been muttering for a while, and he returned to his seat, grumbling.

Jung Ye-rin finally glanced at his retreating back.

‘What a jerk…’

Jung Woo-jin held the position of personnel and dungeon management within the guild. This essentially meant that he was responsible for the assignment of the Goblin Lord dungeon to himself. He probably knew that she and her team couldn’t possibly defeat an A-rank monster.

‘… But as long as we succeed in this mission, I’ll make sure to take care of Mr. Kang-hyun.’

If they succeeded in the conquest, Lee Kang-hyun would be treated as her benefactor. She planned to provide him with substantial rewards.

This expedition was a make-or-break situation. Failing to conquer it would result in a significant blow. Even if they survived and returned, their standing within the guild would diminish. That’s why a turnaround was necessary.

Moreover, Jung Woo-jin’s malicious plan wasn’t limited to this. He had also prepared for a dungeon conquest around the same time as Jung Ye-rin. The intention was clear.

‘I’ll probably fail, while he succeeds.’

The more she thought about it, the more she found him to be a truly annoying guy.

‘Just get caught by an incubus already.’

Silently cursing him, Jung Ye-rin shouted to her team members.

“Let’s get going soon.”

No matter how well they knew the precautions, the actual battle was a different story.

“Remember what I told you all! Follow my orders only!”

So, she gave strict instructions to her team members.

‘After all, it’s a long game.’

Even if it took a few days, Jung Ye-rin was determined to conquer the dungeon.

Jung Ye-rin embarked on the dungeon conquest.

Jung Woo-jin watched her as she left the Phoenix Guild. Soon, it would be his turn to depart. Jung Woo-jin was confident about this dungeon conquest.

His destination was a B-grade dungeon, and he had already completed a thorough reconnaissance. The result was clear, there were no Succubus monsters, only Incubus.

After several reconnaissance missions, this information was solid. However, the frequent reconnaissance wasn’t ideal, as some monsters had intelligence and might adjust their behavior if observed too often.

Still, in this particular dungeon, only Incubus monsters existed.

‘This is a piece of cake.’

Incubus’ charm only affected women, so the entire team was composed of men. Regardless of the Incubus’ attempts to influence them, there was no fear. In the end, they would confront them directly. Jung Woo-jin thought this and smiled.

‘Let’s go and return quickly.’

Today marked the day he would soar. One person would fail in the dungeon conquest, and the other would succeed. Jung Woo-jin was confident that he would be the one to succeed.

The dungeon’s door opened.

“Everyone, stay alert!”

Jung Woo-jin urged his team members from behind. No matter how Incubus’s abilities didn’t work, physical harm was unavoidable. He warned his team members.

“Everyone be on guard! The enemy will definitely come at you head on!”

Inside the Incubus Dungeon, it was eerily quiet. The dungeon walls were made of pristine marble with intricate patterns engraved on top, creating a pale and dark atmosphere. Everyone advanced cautiously, staying on guard.

“Team leader, I hear a sound.”

“Shhh!”

Jung Woo-jin quickly put a finger to his lips. Listening closely, they heard laughter coming from the far end.

‘What is it?’

Other than the laughter, there was nothing else.

“…”

That laughter sounded like a devil’s whisper, tempting them.

What lay at the end? Hope?

Perhaps darkness and danger instead of hope.

Nevertheless, they had the feeling that they had to move forward. They didn’t know where this unknown path would lead, but for some reason, it excited them.

“…”

They followed the devil’s whisper slowly.

At the center of the Incubus Dungeon, celia sat on a magnificent throne. She had been sipping something and soon expressed her admiration.

“The feeling of this fizzy drink, it’s really nice, isn’t it? What’s its name?”

Celia asked, holding an empty can. An Incubus holding a tray answered her question. Azmo, who was both the dungeon master and leader of the Incubus, spoke.

“Yes, celia, this is called ‘cola.’ It’s a drink we obtained from the hunter who entered here last time.”

“Cola… Earth is indeed a nice place. I like it. Next time, I’ll suggest to Master to conquer this place as well.”

Celia placed the empty can on the tray that Azmo held.

Then she picked up a new drink.

“Wow, truly extraordinary! I thought you were an amazing presence when you first appeared, but you’re even more remarkable as the owner.”

Azmo exclaimed in pure admiration. When Celia first arrived, they believed she was an extraordinary being. However, after hearing that she was a Manager, they were astonished.

‘Just how powerful is she?’

If you only heard Celia’s words, it was clear that countries from other dimensions were already under her master command.

‘The world is truly vast.’

If the Succubus in front of them wasn’t from a different dimension, they might have formed an alliance. Azmo felt a deep sense of regret.

‘Well, helping us like this is already enough.’

With these thoughts, Azmo diligently held Celia’s tray.

“Oh, the guests have finally arrived?”

Celia asked after taking a sip of cola, opening her mouth.

As Celia finished speaking, the hunters began to slowly approach from the corridor.

‘Suddenly…!’

Azmo was amazed as he watched them. The hunters had already fallen under the spell. Such a situation would be impossible for a typical Succubus.

‘The more I see, the more incredible she is.’

Celia had used her charm to indoctrinate all the hunters at a distance. They were already completely submissive to her.

Moreover, at Celia’s gesture, they began to drop their equipment and clothing on the ground.

“Incubus doesn’t discriminate by gender here, right?”

Azmo nodded. Celia’s words were true. Incubus originally targeted women, but hunters had their sinister side.

If you look at them now, aren’t all the hunters male?

This was because Incubus’s abilities didn’t affect men, so they deliberately matched their gender to ensure survival.

“Thanks to the great Celia, everything went smoothly.”

The hunters were already naked. Even more astonishing, they were all under the influence of Celia’s sexual desires.

“You’re too kind. All of this is at the will of Master,”

Celia said, pointing to the equipment the hunters had thrown away.

“Ah, may I take the equipment of those small fries?”

“Of course. Everything is thanks to Celia’s actions. We will follow your wishes.”

Azmo politely bowed and clapped his hands, ordering the remaining Incubus to collect the equipment.

All the equipment was packed into one inventory.

“The inventory artifact is my sincerity. I hope to meet the great Celia again someday…”

As the mission was completed, the space around them distorted.

Their tasks in this dungeon had already ended. Celia bid farewell to Azmo and entered the distorted space.

In the Incubus Dungeon, after Celia left, the flames on the wall, which had been dancing, scattered and vanished. The quiet, dark space was filled with the sweet scent of temptation.

With this sweetness as a backdrop, the Incubus, in a dignified posture, approached the hunters. It was like offering their hands to a lover, and a long night of temptation began.
