Heuuuu!

Sung Shihyun woke up with a start.

He looked around with frightened eyes and saw his room, his bed, and the succubus lying next to him, in the said order, all shrouded in darkness.

Sung Shihyun stared down at the succubus with mixed feelings.

A year ago, he tried to retaliate against Vulgar Chastity for using him as a shield, but forgave her when she proposed to offer him an infinite supply of succubi every night.

So last night, he picked a girl who suited his taste exactly.

Her name.

He had heard it but forgotten it already.

All he knew about her was that she used to be an Earthling, and a quite famous one at that, just like himself, before Vulgar Chastity captured her and depraved her.

When his thoughts reached that point, Sung Shihyun finally realized that the nightmare was over and dropped his head.

Fuck. Its that shitty dream again.

With a heavy sigh, he scratched his sweaty, damp hair.

Sung Shihyun had been having nightmares lately, or more precisely, since the day the Parasite Queen showed him outer space.

He didnt know who the man in his dream was. He couldnt even make out his face.

What he remembered of the man was his pitch-black armor, crimson cape, and the bladeless sword.

Sung Shihyun chewed his lips. Fear swept over him again as he recalled the sight of the man slowly rising to his feet, pressing his palms against the armrest of his throne surrounded by women.

The man approached Sung Shihyun slowly, step by step.

The pressure he felt then that made him shiver still lingered inside him.

Damn. Fucking hell.

Sung Shihyun tried to calm his breathing before suddenly grabbing the succubus arm and pulling her towards him.

The succubus opened her eyes halfway and looked up, still drowsy from sleep.

Then she extended her arms towards Sung Shihyun like she was used to this sort of treatment.

He felt better when the warm flesh touched him.

Fuck, stop showing up in my dreams. Adults shouldnt meddle in kids affairs. Let kids play with other kids.

Sung Shihyun mumbled to himself and then lay back on the bed.

Brightest Star.

He wrapped his arms around the succubus with an alluring scent and looked up at the ceiling.

His eyes began to burn with jealousy and envy.

No freaking way.

Sung Shihyuns lips distorted.

Im the main character of Paradise. Im the protagonist.

He said as if to reassure himself, and then closed his eyes and attempted to go back to sleep.

Suddenly, the door burst open. Sung Shihyuns face crumpled in an instant.

Argh, who is it?

He sat up, and the succubus who had just opened his door quickly knelt before him.

I-Im sorry!

Didnt I say Im too tired lately for a threesome?

No, thats not why I. Theres an important message from my lord to the First Army Commander.

From Vulgar Chastity?

Sung Shihyun crossed his arms with a snort.

Alright, speak. And if its trivial, youd better get ready for punishment. In bed, of course.

The succubus trembled in fear.

Yes, well, humanity is.

She did her best to convey the message succinctly because she knew how sadistic and perverted Sung Shihyun was in bed.

As her voice continued, the expression on Sung Shihyuns face changed from annoyance to confusion.

Sinyoung collapsed?

Yes. Not entirely, of course, but now theyre now tied to Valhalla through a contract, and their director is due to resign soon.

Leave.

Sung Shihyun commanded and the succubus bowed her head and left in a hurry.

Hmm.

Sung Shihyun brooded over the news that the succubus had just delivered.

He looked unusually serious.

That Yun bitch is withdrawing? The Yun bitch ? Unbelievable.

Sung Shihyun tilted his head to the side.

Thats amazing if its true. I didnt think that crazy bitch knew how to give up.

He mumbled in a bitter voice, and.

Seol Jihu. I wont deny youre special, but youre too soft.

He smiled.

You shouldve killed her when the chance came. Why did you let her live?

The Yun Seohui that Sung Shihyun knew couldnt be trusted.

He never knew when she would turn against him.

Hell learn when he gets stabbed in the back like me. Theres no way that Yun bitch will go down like this. What should I do.

Sung Shihyun licked his lips.

Part of him wanted to watch Yun Seohuis plan unfold, but nevertheless he didnt think it would succeed.

After witnessing the Brightest Star, he couldnt think otherwise. That star wouldnt fall easily.

Perhaps...

This could be their chance.

The last chance to strike before humanity finishes regrouping and fully unites with the Federation.

The thought suddenly struck him.

Sung Shihyun quickly organized his thoughts and stormed out of the room.

He exited the building and stomped towards the Imperial Palace where the Parasite Queen resided.
