Chapter 19: So, Who Exactly is in a Social Death?
update icon Updated at 2023/7/5 10:10:12

Eberl found a factory area for Lyle, with many employees.

It was really busy at the beginning.

Because they were producing temperature-controlled ovens.

Eberl was too lazy to explain the principles of gas flow and hysteresis time inside the furnace.

He just let the employees imitate him and produce them, but most of them turned out to be defective.

On the other hand, Lilith, squatting beside, learned very quickly.

Perhaps this part-time queen really had some unknown talent.

Or maybe, there was indeed a perseverance in this elven girl that could infect people.

In just a couple of days, she became even more proficient than Lyle in running around the factory area and guiding the employees.

Everyone liked this elven girl.

Even those employees who used to think about where to have fun after work in the morning, became serious.

Lyle was indeed worn out both physically and mentally, so he was a little late today.

Only a few workers had arrived so far,

but he already saw Lilith running around, seemingly never getting tired.

How nice it was, as if she was always filled with anticipation and vitality for the future.

Maybe bringing her along was really a good choice?

"Lilith, come here."

"Teacher!"

Lilith ran over eagerly, holding a small notebook, with her cute pointy ears fluttering: "Today, I'm still the diligent elven girl who studies hard! Am I finally going to get my first pat on the head reward?!"

"No such thing."

"Teacher, are you really not angry?"

Lyle was surprised, "Why would I be angry?"

"Sia looks down on you."

Lilith said, "Teacher, your life skills are so amazing. If Sia looks down on you, then she looks down on me even more! I have to work harder!"

Well, her logic was not wrong.

Lyle didn't reach out to pat her head, his hands in his pockets, and he said gently, "Lilith, take a break."

Lilith was a little disappointed and her pointy ears twitched, "Then I'll go back to work."

"Hmm, go ahead. You've been a great help this month, and I'll pay you the salary."

"Okay."

The teacher's pupils were really deep, Lilith always felt that he was like the evening glow, giving people a distant illusion.

However, after this atmosphere continued for a few more days, even Lilith couldn't hold on.

Then, the quick-footed Sue was forced to take on the task of bringing them food.

Every time she came for lunch, she could see Lilith, exhausted like a dead dog, napping on the desk in the office.

Sue felt sorry for her.

As for the man, he always stood at the window with a few lists in his hand, rubbing his forehead in agony, but his footsteps were light, as if he was afraid of waking up the exhausted elven girl.

But Sue's attitude towards Lyle remained unfriendly.

However, Sue would still talk to him.

"Food," "Keep it down," "I'm leaving," something like that.

This succubus lady had her own thoughts.

She would usually buy three meals.

She bought a deluxe set with meat and fish for Lilith, and a cheap vegetable set for herself and Lyle.

Because they didn't want to wake up the exhausted elven girl, they would wait for her to wake up and eat.

So, the slightly foolish Lilith didn't realize that her teacher was being bullied by the succubus lady!

However, after observing for two days, the miserly succubus realized that Lyle didn't say anything, he just silently ate all the meal sets to fill his stomach, she felt a little awkward.

But she still couldn't bring herself to buy two deluxe sets with meat and fish.

She would secretly put some of the vegetables from her own meal into his portion before coming.However, today Sue said something different: "Aren't you resting at noon?"

"In a little while."

"Oh."

Sue was surprised that she didn't get up and leave. She sat there daydreaming, not knowing what she was thinking.

Lyle leaned back in his chair, and after a while, a dull heavy feeling rushed over him.

He was indeed tired enough.

The office was quiet.

When this man started to snore softly, Sue slowly stood up,

Miss Succubus had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time.

She took out something she bought at the market today.

A "Shining Stone" from the 23rd floor of Ishegard.

It was able to briefly record the images of a small area.

If you really have any strange thoughts about Lilith...

Sue's dark red pupils slowly lit up.

Although the business of Dreamland was not glamorous, the Succubus could survive in Eofer not just by seducing men.

As a Succubus, she could easily enter dreams.

If Lyle knew what she wanted to do, he would definitely jump up and curse,

You're not willing to buy me a piece of meat, but you're willing to spend gold coins on this useless thing?!

Just to make me die?!

But Sue had never used this talent before, so she had to practice with her sister Lilith first.

As Sue's dark red pupils became brighter, a pink mist appeared above Lilith's head.

It was a brilliant landscape, with the scent of flowers and the sound of birds in a forest.

Lilith's hometown.

Miss being homesick... Sue's expression softened for a moment.

The scene changed, and in the center of the forest, there was a net woven with flowers and vines swaying gently between two big trees.

A blonde-haired, blue-eyed elf girl knelt on the soft flowers, wearing a black cat-ear headpiece on her head, and a revealing yet elegant maid outfit, with a long swaying cat tail behind her.

Ah?! Sue's face filled with horror as she watched a man appear in the scene.

In the dream, Lilith raised her finger and made an aiming gesture: "Meow! Cat poison!"

Then the elf girl was forcefully pushed down by someone.

Her porcelain-white long legs were thrown over her head.

"Bastard!!!" Sue severed Lilith's dream with a red face, and cast a fierce gaze at Lyle beside her.

This damn pervert!!!

But she seemed to have forgotten whose dream this was.

Looking at Lilith's satisfied sleeping expression, Sue's barren chest heaved violently, and her dark red eyes glowed again.

A blurry mist also appeared above Lyle's head.

With the experience from the first time, this time the scene was more stable.

It was a silver-haired girl who appeared, looking about seventeen or eighteen years old. She had an extremely rare beauty, with dark red pupils and a sharp and dangerous aura.

But she was tightly bound by a rope.

There was also a slender heart-shaped tail hanging behind her.

"Why did I dream of her? By the way, it seems like a game I've played before... Did I encounter a Succubus and triggered a memory?" This was Lyle talking to himself.

Sue stared dumbfounded at the pink mist,

Like a statue, she even forgot to sever the scene.

In that instant, in the dream,

"It really looks exactly the same?"

Lyle approached and pinched the girl's porcelain-white cheek.

The girl's delicately exquisite face turned intensely embarrassed.In dreams and in reality.
