Broken Possessors of Infinite Regression Academy

I surveyed the completely devastated central hall. Literally, a third of the vast hall had been vaporized. It was a result of Kirke’s tenacity, but at least I had eliminated her without leaving a single cell behind.

Sheathing Eternity, I looked up. Through the hole in the ceiling, I could see the red sky that shouldn’t have been visible from within the central hall.

‘I hope the place where Nika fled wasn’t caught in that.’

I had tried to take into account the structure of the castle as I fought, but I couldn’t be sure.

I climbed the stairs to the top floor. At least the door here seemed to be intact. I turned the doorknob, but it wouldn’t turn any further, indicating that it was locked.

‘Could the succession be in progress?’

Otherwise, there was no reason to lock the door. Even these succubi should know that a mere locked door wouldn’t stop someone who could easily breach the Demon King’s barrier.

Using physical enhancement magic, I pressed my ear against the door. I heard whispering from within, but I couldn’t make out the words. At least it didn’t seem like the succession was underway.

With a show of strength, I tore the door off its hinges and stepped inside. The succubi scattered to the sides, making way for me.

‘That was close.’

Nika was in the center of the room, which was partially melted, as if she had been caught in the aftermath of the battle. She sat calmly, her gaze lowered to the floor. The surrounding succubi seemed reluctant to approach her, let alone stay in the same room.

The situation was ambiguous—it wasn’t clear if she had fully awakened as the Queen or not. I grabbed one of the nearby succubi and demanded an explanation.

“You, explain what’s going on. Has the succession to the Queen’s position been properly completed?”

“I, I don’t know! Or, well… I mean, I don’t know. We were just talking among ourselves, and then suddenly…”

I wondered why she was suddenly being so polite, but there were more pressing matters at hand. I approached Nika. The succubi around me reached out towards me, but they were stopped by their companions, who called them crazy. I heard them swallowing their saliva, their gazes filled with desire.

I ignored them and stopped right in front of Nika.

“Nika.”

At the sound of my voice, Nika slowly raised her head. As soon as our eyes met, I realized something was changing. Half of her irises were tinted pink.

“……Yes, Master.”

With just that one response, an incredibly intense and alluring pheromone assaulted my senses. Reflexively, I used purification magic to calm my body’s reaction.

“What happened?”

“I know, but I don’t know. I don’t know what happened to me or how it’s progressing. I was just listening to them talking about you, and then I started to feel… strange.”

I looked around, and the succubi averted their gazes and slowly backed away. I wondered what they had been saying about me to elicit such a reaction. Had they been gossiping behind my back?

I turned my attention back to Nika. Something was odd. In that short moment, it felt like she had grown taller.

‘……She really has grown.’

It wasn’t just a feeling. Nika was still growing, even as we spoke. Her head, which had only reached my chest before, was now almost at eye level.

At the same time, her expression became even more seductive. Nika gave me a coy smile and spoke in an even calmer voice.

“I see now.”

“What?”

“I finally understand that it was you, Master, who was the key to my becoming the Queen.”

Nika’s eyes, now completely tinted pink, held my gaze as she licked her lips. Unlike before, her words were filled with strength, and her speech was clear and confident.

“You put a submission spell on me, making me your property. You even made me lick your fingers a few hours ago. So, the conditions for my succession and awakening as Queen are tied to you, the one who has had the most significant influence on me, who couldn’t even perform a single suction.”

“……Then, what was it originally?”

“What else could it be? When the current Queen and the succubus who is to become the next Queen go into a secret place together?”

Nika made a scissor shape with her fingers and rubbed them together. It was a gesture that needed no explanation.

“So, it seems I need your help to become the Queen and use that power if that’s what you intend to do…”

Nika reached out her hand towards me. I caught her wrist, and she let out a sticky moan. She thought I was going to grant her request, and a seductive smile formed on her face.

“You’re mistaken, Nika. I’m not trying to awaken you as the Queen because I need your power.”

“……You don’t intend to use me to dominate all the other succubi?”

Her eyes widened in surprise, and so did those of the other succubi.

“I came all the way to the Demon World and did all this because I felt sorry for you. Just like I did with the submission spell, turning you into a maid. If you had been like the other succubi, killing people and sucking out their essence, do you think I would have bothered?”

My words may have sounded cold, but they were the truth. My intention to make her the Succubus Queen was solely out of pity, nothing more, nothing less.

“……I see.”

Nika’s shoulders slumped for a moment, but then she pushed herself towards me again.

“That doesn’t matter. What’s important is that you, Master, have given me a second chance. So, can you please help me one more time?”

Her pink eyes, glistening with tears, looked up at me. I had intended to help her anyway. My previous refusal was because she had misunderstood my purpose, which I now clarified.

“I was going to do that anyway. How can I help you?”

“Please have suction with me. I won’t use seduction or brainwashing. I’ll quietly absorb your essence… you can just enjoy my body as you like.”

“That’s not possible.”

The succubi stirred, most of them in shock. They couldn’t believe that I would turn down such an opportunity to be with the Succubus Queen. Was I even human?

“……Then, at least let me have suction. I’m begging you.”

Nika quickly accepted that she couldn’t convince me, surprisingly without any resistance.

“I just said no to—”

“I’m not talking about intercourse. We succubi can also absorb essence without physical union. I’ve never done either, but I know it’s possible.”

“Are you serious?”

I grabbed one of the nearby succubi to confirm, and she nodded.

“Yes, it’s true. We can absorb essence without having sex. We usually do it during intercourse because there’s no reason not to.”

Now that I knew she wasn’t lying, I decided to play along.

“Alright, how do we do it?”

“Just kiss me.”

“……What?”

“It’s fine. It has no meaning beyond absorbing essence. It’s just a necessary process…”

Nika leaned in, putting her weight into it. I hesitated for a moment, then let go of her wrist. She wasted no time and immediately pressed herself into my embrace, lifting her head to meet my lips. There was not a hint of shyness in her actions.

Before our lips could even touch, her tongue slipped into my mouth. It wriggled like a living creature, tasting every corner of my mouth.

With each flick of her tongue, a jolt of pleasure washed over me. Even without the use of pheromones, my entire body felt as if it were floating.

“Ahhhn…… Heung…… Heung……”

The moans echoing in my mouth were coated with saliva. Our chests, pressed tightly together, squished and deformed, pushed towards my armpits.

As I felt something being drawn out of my body, changes began to occur.

The first thing I noticed was her breasts. They had always been large, but now I could feel them swelling even further. The weight on her chest seemed to increase with each passing moment.

Other parts of her body were transforming as well. A pair of demonic wings wrapped around me from the corners of my vision, as if embracing my entire body. At the same time, I felt something like a rope coiling around my thighs—probably a tail.

It was as if every part of her body was transforming to serve the purpose of seducing males, and even her sweat and saliva exuded an indescribably fragrant scent.

“Pahat……”

Nika breathed heavily, pulling away from the kiss. I wiped my mouth and took a moment to catch my breath. It had been a disgustingly long time since I had felt this level of arousal.

I thought my sexual desires had disappeared after realizing something had broken inside me in my previous world. Even when I met Astaroth, I hadn’t felt this way. Perhaps Nika was something special.

“Ahh…… Master…… Such thick and delicious essence……”

While I tried to calm my arousal, Nika trembled with ecstasy.

As expected, a pair of wings sprouted from her waist, and a tail swayed behind her. A pair of horns protruded from her head.

Her clothes had also transformed. The maid outfit she had been wearing was gone, replaced by a string bikini that barely covered her nipples and areolas, along with a miniskirt that barely covered anything.

The mark of submission that had been on her tongue, chest, and lower abdomen was gone. Whether the magic itself had disappeared or only the tattoo was unclear.

“More…… Can’t you give me more…… No, this isn’t enough. A little more……”

“No. It seems like you’ve had enough.”

“Ah, Ahhhhh……”

Nika, who had been on the verge of despair, lifted her head, and her eyes shone with a dangerous light.

“That’s enough.”

“Your tone has changed.”

“Of course. There’s no need to hide anymore.”

“Are you talking about your awakening as the Queen?”

“You already know and you’re asking? That’s a nasty habit.”

The demonic wings on her waist spread wide. The succubi nearby, who had been standing uneasily, suddenly knelt and bowed their heads as if under some spell.

“It’s fine to like it. It’s true that your essence is delicious, and it’s true that the succession began because of you. I just didn’t have enough power to reveal it. You filled that void.”

“Ah, so that’s why you were still pretending to be a maid, calling me Master and asking for my essence? You have a nasty habit too.”

“Succubi are like that by nature. We submit completely to strong males, but we trample on weak ones. I’m no exception.”

“So, what about now? Are you showing your true colors because you think you can trample on me?”

“Of course. What do you think I did while we were kissing?”

Her pink irises sparkled. Whatever she had tried to do during the kiss, she seemed satisfied, as she boldly approached me without hesitation.

“Don’t worry. I’ll keep you by my side and suck your essence until it’s gone or it loses its taste. Now, kneel quickly……”

However, even as she came right up to me, I remained standing calmly, which soon turned her confidence into confusion.

“What… what’s going on……? Why are you still fine……?”

“So, it was you who made me feel this way? I thought something was strange. It didn’t make sense for me to be so aroused by just a kiss.”

It was only natural that I wouldn’t be so aroused by just a kiss. I had suspected that the Succubus Queen was different, but it turned out that Nika had done something underhanded to heighten my arousal.

I didn’t feel betrayed or tricked. After all, I had been warned by Elysier that once the Succubus Queen’s instincts awakened, she would act this way, regardless of how she felt about me as a maid. The timing was just a little off.

“What did you say to me earlier? Something about keeping me by your side until my essence was gone or it lost its taste?”

If that was the case, it was clear what I had to do—to imprint on her who was truly dominant, just as Elysier had instructed.

“Go ahead.”

I calmly prepared for battle, infusing Eternity with mana. Nika’s face turned pale, and she backed away, stumbling.

“If you can.”
