Harem Tales of a Reincarnated Elf Prince

Chapter 2 - Jailbreak and Counterattack

I waited for a chance and hid beside the prison door.

After lowering my breathing, the footsteps stopped in front of my cell.

I don’t know that that guy did on the other side, but the chain that curled around as a lock was loosened.

The magic chain that was protecting the door firmly just fell on the floor like an ordinary chain.

Then, the door was opened.

"Hey, is he really here?"

"He is, probably. I have confirmed it with the guards"

I could hardly believe my own eyes.

What opened the key and entered my cell was a familiar person. It was one of the succubus that I have embraced.

Moreover, there seems to be more succubi outside the door.

I don’t really want this, but I can’t keep on staying here forever.

Making up my mind, I went in front of them.

"Yo, ladies. May I ask what are you doing here?"

I’m ready to fight at any moment.

But with these many succubi as my opponents, I sill don’t know if I were able to survive.

"Aaah, he’s here!"

The blonde succubus saw me.

She’s the one I came in contact first with my temptation magic.

The red-haired succubus partner is also present.

"Fufu, I want to make a deal with you this time"

"A deal?"

"Yes, a deal. We will help you get out of here. But in exchange, we want to have your semen again"

"......it’s the first time I’ve tasted something like that after all. And it will be even more of a pity if we couldn’t taste it again"

I turned my eyes at the back, and even the other succubi are nodding as well.

It seems that my extra efforts have been rewarded.

"I heard that the succubi are too free-wiled, but isn’t this act a betrayal from the Demon Lord?"

Indeed, Beatrice won’t forgive the people who let me escape.

If they are caught and imprisoned, they can never return again.

"Geez, let’s not discuss those trivial details. What’s important right now is we feel good first"

The blonde succubus insisted so. She didn’t really look like lying.

I’m a little disturbed by their lack of loyalty, but for now I should appreciate this moment.

"......I understand. I will accept those conditions"

"Yay! I knew you would accept!"

The blonde succubus nodded in joy.

"Anyway, after this, come to my country. I’m planning to be the King if I return home safely"

"Eh, is that okay?"

"We are demons though"

"When I become king, the problems between the races would be gone"

But before that, I have to get back all the branches of the King Tree before I get home safely.

After it’s done, I will make it a symbol of Algarde.

Humans, Spirits, Elves and Demons will overcome their past and become a strong nation.

"I will have to take the branches from Beatrice first"

I smiled wryly as I said so.

That’s the most difficult problem I have to face later on.

"Then, shall we help you?"

"You guys? But......can you fight?"

I’m always glad to have reinforcements.

However, I’m troubled if they aren’t up to it.

"We can still fight even though we look like this. Afer all, we are a bit stronger than an ordinary human"

"I see, you are demons"

Though they are a bit weaker when using elves as the standard, but for human standards, they are great war potential.

However, they are still insufficient to face Beatrice.

"I understand. I have accepted your feelings, but I’m the only one who should face Beatrice. Do you get it?"

"We got it; we are not that suicidal"

The red-haired succubus commented with a smile.

"Speaking of which, do you have any weapons? I don’t want to go unarmed"

"If it’s in your luggage, we’ve already secured it. Let’s get out of here first"

Urged by them, we left the dungeon.

We walked around the area, then there was a place that seemed to be an observation post.

But once we came near it, I saw demons, lying on the floor.

"You are quite careless, aren’t ya......I just squeezed you three times and you immediately dropped"

It is the blonde succubus, smiling as she muttered so.

She’s not at the same level as Glinnis, but she does have quite the techniques.

If the demons are already suppressed at this degree, what would it be if they were humans?

While I was thinking about it, the red-haired succubus received a luggage from a fellow succubus then gave it to me.

"hey, is this yours?"

"Oh, thank you"

I checked inside, and luckily, there is not a single thing missing, except for the branches of course.

I pulled out my sword and checked its condition.

Yep, it’s still good as new.

"Now then, shall we go?"

After I said so, the succubi around me nodded.

Their hands are now holding spears, shields, bows and arrows and different kinds of weapons.

There are still some who are still unarmed, but I think they can use magic, probably.

Though Glinnis isn’t a magic user, I’m sure there is someone in this crowd who’s good at magic.

"We have to hurry. We have to defeat her before the invasion starts at any cost"

We ran up to the top floor of the castle.

We have kept running for a while, but there was no one who stood in our way. Maybe the army has already made its sortie?

If that’s the case, then it’s a race against time.

I sped up and came back to the audience chamber, where I have been earlier.

Then, I thew the door wide open.

"I have returned, Beatrice!"。

I unsheathed my sword, and thrown away my luggage to make things light.

Beatrice is still sitting in the same chair as before.

"Oh, you came back......looks like there are traitors among the succubi"

She looked surprised when she saw me, but soon regained her calm and responded immediately.

"Unfortunately, it seems that I’m more popular than you"

I said as I pointed my sword to Beatrice.

I now have come this far. I have to do this with the intent to kill or I’ll be killed.

Because I had plenty of time in that cell, I have thought of several strategies, but for them to work or not is still questionable.

I have no choice but to test them while fighting.

"Beatrice, do you have the branches of the King Tree?"

"I have it, but I’m not telling you where it is"

"Then I’ll defeat you and hear it from you, even if I have to kill you"

"Hmph, big words. Come"

Sensing my blood thirst, Beatrice stood up from her chair.

"Don’t expect me to give you a warm welcome like before"

She pointed her hand at me again.

Sure enough, that flame magic from before assaulted me again.

However, this time the power was higher than expected. The pale flames from a while ago turned into deep red color!

"Damn, so she was really holding back earlier!"

I evaded it, and the floor where I stood a while ago burned in my place.

But unlike before, the floor was scorching red on the spot.

I knew that the power of the flame’s changes when its color changes, but I will surely die if that touched me.

"You guys, don’t come forth!"

I stepped forward while I warned the succubi behind me.

"Do you think I’ll flinch after seeing this? I’m a lot braver than you think!”

"I can avoid that, just watch me!"

While avoiding the flames, I brandished my sword.

"Do you really think you can defeat me with that?"

However, Beatrice avoided my slash like a joke.

But then, one of the succubi followed up and shot an arrow on the spot she evaded.

"I don’t have any grudges with the Demon Lord, but this is also for our precious semen!"

"So, you don’t have to worry about us!"

The sharp arrow then approached the Demon Lord who cannot move from the earlier attack.

But then, she raised her hands without panic.

"Also, don’t think that a Demon Lord like me could be approached by a single lump of iron!"

She then created a vortex of flames from that hand, and aimed it towards the arrow.

In an instant, the approaching arrow was burned to ashes.

"Hey hey, isn’t that a little too much?"

"Idiot, Shut up and duck!"

The succubus who had the bow was pulled down by her comrades.

Immediately after that, a number of fireballs flooded in the spot where her head was a while ago.

From the vortex of flames Beatrice used as a counter for the arrows, she produced fireballs and immediately fought back.

"Now then. You guys, what are you going to do next?"

The Demon Lord in front of them spoke, accompanied by an overwhelming aura.
