Chapter 164
"Turning hard liquor into sparkling wine is way too dangerous — you can't even tell it's hard liquor from the mouthfeel!"
At the dining table, Darkness chewed on a meat steak, eating and talking at the same time, with not a shred of a young lady's elegance.
According to her, eating this casually is what makes her feel at ease, unlike at home, in front of her father, where she has to maintain noble etiquette.
Although her father never demanded that of her, it's something Darkness demands of herself; who knows how this strange personality of hers was cultivated.
"I feel like this can't all be blamed on the alcohol, right?"
The Lich lady feels this is an alcohol tolerance issue — take her, for instance, she was force-fed some alcohol and feels no discomfort even now.
"You're a dead person!"
Darkness retorted.
"But I can taste alcohol too, and I still get drunken reactions; I eat things the same as a normal human."
Wiz rebutted.
"Eh? Then how come you never eat anything normally?"
Darkness asked curiously.
"That's because a Lich's digestion system is much weaker than a normal human's; eating a little might be fine, but eating more could cause bloating."
Wiz explained with a slight blush; after becoming a Lich, she also went through a painful adaptation period to shed some human lifestyle habits, like the habit of eating normally.
Eating is nice, you can taste delicious food, but if every time you need to manually excrete indigestible food, that's very painful.
Wiz also went through many lessons before gradually losing some lifestyle habits that aren't very friendly to Liches.
Wiz explained some of her body's inconveniences; Darkness thought for a moment, then asked: "Then after you do that thing in the future, do you still have to get it out bit by bit?"
"That thing?"
The Lich lady didn't react at first, but when she did react, her face flushed and she hurriedly waved her hands: "That's not necessary; fresh living matter, I can absorb directly with Absorption Touch, it's just that this method causes infertility — though, can a Lich really have children with a living being?"
This again involved the issue of species compatibility; the Lich lady thought for a while but found she fundamentally didn't know.
After all, what normal person would look for a Lich as a partner? "The ability to absorb vital energy — that basically makes you a Succubus, doesn't it?"
Darkness retorted.
Wiz: "..."
"A Succubus, huh — Wiz, can you weave dreams too?"
Broly asked curiously; a pile of empty plates already sat beside him.
"How could that be possible, I'm not a real Succubus!"
Wiz hurriedly denied.
Absorption Touch (Life Drain) is a Lich's skill; Dream Weaving is a Succubus's specialty.
And her class is Lich, neither a Succubus nor an Adventurer, so how could she learn a Succubus's skill?
However, Broly could try learning a Succubus's skill; who knows, he might actually learn 【Dream Weaving (Dream Manipulation)】.
"Speaking of which, Broly, as an Adventurer class, you might be able to become a human who knows Succubus skills."
Wiz said this, giving Broly a wake-up call.
If he really could have a delicious dream tonight, he'd definitely ask a Succubus to teach him the skill.
Night deepened; Broly opened the room's window, then lay on the bed with some anticipation, waiting for the Succubus's arrival.
Darkness returned to her room to sleep; Wiz had to go to the cemetery to purify dead souls; the annex fell quiet. Before long, a petite Succubus flew over.
"You're here?"
Just as she followed the contract into the room, she heard the voice.
"Eh? Customer, you haven't gone to sleep yet?"
Sasha asked.
"I was waiting for you."
Broly answered honestly, just like waiting for Santa Claus to climb down the chimney on Christmas Eve and deliver a Christmas gift.
"That's a bit troublesome; I can only give you a customized dream after you fall asleep, Customer."
The little Succubus was a bit troubled.
"Oh, then I'll sleep now."
Broly lay down again; his sleep quality is extremely good — he falls asleep the moment his head hits the pillow.
"Eh?!"
The little Succubus was a bit surprised, but still quickly began manipulating the boy's dream on the bed.
Following the contract list, she started weaving the delicious dream Broly requested.
However, Client and Contractor ultimately cannot achieve heart-to-heart communication; the little Succubus, in the process of weaving the dream, produced the so-called delicious food in a way a Succubus could understand.
If someone in reality could see Broly's dream right now, they'd discover he's in a mountain cave on Wanpa Star, and a group of graceful food-people suddenly walked in from outside the cave.
The Ice Cream Lady wearing cone stockings, the tall Steak Lady made entirely of tomahawk steaks, the Bun Lady with a bun for a head and two big buns on her chest, a figure somewhat like Wiz's Bun Lady...
In the dream, Broly's brows furrowed; why do the foods he wants to eat all look a bit strange? But the dream didn't allow him time to think further.
Under the little Succubus's manipulation outside, the Tomahawk Steak Lady launched the first attack on the boy, swaying her plump buttocks roasted with Maillard reaction, pressing them right in front of the boy's face: "Little brother, won't you come taste big sister's flavor?"
Looking at a humanoid shape made of multiple steaks, smelling like grilled steak, yet speaking with a mature woman's voice — is this really something edible? Broly had just generated this doubt when his consciousness reacted a step ahead; an elegant Hannibal tune abruptly rang out in the dream.
The dream changed, shifting from the mountain cave to a western restaurant kitchen; beside him was a knife rack holding various knives, and Broly's clothes changed from beast skin clothes to a tuxedo.
And the originally coquettish Steak Lady was now tied to the cutting board, twisting her juice-flowing body, as if saying 【Come eat me】.
A knife unknowingly came into Broly's hand; the him in the dream began dissecting the Steak Lady's body.
As the perfectly grilled steak meat entered his mouth, the taste from memory shattered the illusory dream, letting him savor the flavor of grilled steak once more; Broly's consciousness began sinking into this absurd dream.
"Mmm, such strong mental energy~"
The little Succubus cried out in surprise after Broly began sinking into the dream, because the mental energy transmitted from the boy had already completely surpassed imagination.
In just an instant she was fulfilled; although the taste was not lust but gluttony, somewhat not quite right, it was still something that could fill the belly.
"What a pity~"
Looking at the overflowing mental energy, the little succubus only felt pity; she pitied herself for why she had only brought one tool for storing mental energy, that storage device was filled up before long.
However, unable to continue absorbing mental energy, the little succubus also did not stop manipulating the dream; this client was so powerful, so she also had to be a bit more powerful, but instead increased the output of dream power, making Broly's dream become even more realistic.
Broly in the dream had already gnawed the cone stockings, and was holding the Ice Cream Lady while licking that white, soft, sweet body.
He also pried open the Cola Lady's bottle cap, a straw inserted into the bottle mouth, Broly leaned over and started sucking; the Cola Lady let out a strange moan, as if her soul was being sucked away, a large amount of foam quickly gushed out from the bottle mouth.
A very strange cola reaction, but it seemed to also comply with the succubus's cognition; the Cola Lady in the absurd dream seemed about to break.
