Release That Succubus

Luna showed no interest in the human families as she wore a lifeless expression while following her master through the maze-like garden to reach the center of the estate where the Sosis family's main residence stood. Along the way, she observed the ornate architecture and meticulously maintained gardens, but displayed no emotion.

Upon arriving at the mansion, two guards greeted them and asked Zach and Luna to wait outside while they informed Frederick, the head of the household, about their unexpected visit. Zach nodded in understanding, recognizing the importance of showing respect to the family despite his unannounced arrival.

As they waited outside, Zach took the opportunity to observe the sprawling estate, admiring the intricate details of the mansion's exterior and the carefully tended gardens. He wondered what kind of people lived in such opulence.

After a few minutes, one of the guards returned and said, "Master has called for you. Follow me." Zach noticed a lack of respect in the guard's tone, but chose to keep it to himself as he followed the guard to meet the man behind his recent assassination attempt.

Frederick was caught off guard by the unexpected arrival of the dark mage he had longed to meet since the old man he had sent to assassinate him was taken care of. The sudden visit left him feeling both annoyed and surprised – annoyed because it gave him little time to prepare suitable arrangements and surprised because the head of the Luther family had allowed the dark mage to meet with Frederick alone.

"Either the cripple is confident that I would not be able to win over the dark mage or this dark mage has come here without even consulting the Luther family head. Or maybe, this dark mage has already taken over that weak family and is now holding the reins. Let's not come to a conclusion without any evidence. I'll soon find out the truth anyway."

Despite his reservations, Frederick chose to reserve judgment until he had more evidence.

He was confident that he would soon uncover the truth behind the dark mage's visit and his connections with the Luther family. In the meantime, he prepared himself to meet with the powerful mage and discover what he wanted.

"Father, I need your help to get justice for myself," Raisman pleaded with urgency in his voice. He couldn't bear the thought of losing Diana, whom he had worked so hard to acquire.

Frederick looked at his son with a mix of frustration and understanding. He knew that Raisman's impatience could lead to rash decisions, which could ultimately hurt him in the long run.

"Patience is key, my son. You must learn to wait for the right moment and strike when the time is right. You're a hunter, and like any good hunter, you mustn't scare off your prey with your impatience," Frederick advised his son, trying to calm him down with a stern yet gentle approach.

Raisman took a deep breath and listened to his father's words. He knew that his father was right, and that rushing things could ruin everything he had worked so hard to achieve. He felt a sense of calm wash over him as he realized that he needed to be patient and wait for the right opportunity to get the justice he deserved.

As the guard led Zach and Luna into the study, Frederick stood up from his seat with a sly smile. He had been caught off guard by their unexpected arrival and was slightly annoyed with Zach for ruining his plans, but he managed to conceal his displeasure and welcomed them with a gracious demeanor.

"Ah, what a pleasant surprise," Frederick said smoothly, hiding his frustration behind a veneer of charm. "I had intended to visit the Luther family head tomorrow, but it seems fate has brought us together sooner. I'm delighted to finally meet you both."

He gestured towards the empty couch with a sweeping motion of his hand, inviting them to take a seat. Zach complied, settling into the soft cushions with an air of calm confidence. Luna followed suit, positioning herself to Zach's right and facing the chair where Raisman had been sitting before his departure.

Frederick watched them closely as they made themselves comfortable, studying their expressions and body language for any clues about their intentions. Despite his irritation with Zach, he knew better than to show his hand too soon. He would bide his time and wait for the right moment to strike.

When Frederick greeted Raisman, his son didn't even bother to stand up. It was clear to everyone in the room that he lacked the political acumen of his father, and his petulant and immature behavior only served to highlight his foolishness. Zach was taken aback by Raisman's childishness; he had expected the young man to be more mature and composed.

Despite his initial shock, Zach quickly realized that Raisman was inconsequential. He posed no real threat, and Zach saw him as nothing more than a minor annoyance. After all, Raisman was no match for his cunning and wily father, who was likely already planning his next move.

Zach knew he had to be careful around the elder Sosis; he was as dangerous as a snake, with a quick mind and a silver tongue.

As the meeting continued, Zach kept his guard up, wary of any traps or pitfalls that Frederick might lay in his path. He knew that he had to stay sharp if he wanted to outmaneuver the devious mastermind and come out on top.

Zach responded to Frederick's greeting with a smile that mirrored the elder Sosis ' own.

"I heard you sent a letter to Bruce about you wanting to visit. I felt that it was better for us to meet before you came to visit him. There were some things that I felt we should talk about before that so I had to come over today." he explained.

Frederick's lips twitched slightly as he observed Zach's smile. It was eerily similar to his own, and he couldn't help but wonder if the young man was trying to manipulate him. He quickly pushed the thought aside and gestured for the servants to bring out some tea.

Raisman sat in silence, watching Zach and Frederick interact without uttering a word. He couldn't stand the thought of interacting with Zach, let alone sitting in the same room as him. He seethed with anger as he thought about how Zach had dared to touch "his" Diana. In his mind's eye, he imagined ripping Zach's guts out and watching him bleed.

But of course he could only imagine such things at the moment.

Zach's mind was elsewhere as he followed the guard towards the study. He had already accomplished what he had set out to do in person at the Sosis family's residence. Despite the polite conversation with Frederick and the uncomfortable silence from Raisman, Zach had already achieved his objective.

As they walked, Zach discreetly reached into his pocket and pulled out a handful of small, mechanical dragonflies. He had created these devices as a main project, he had ingeniously taken out of his Weapons Arsenal without anyone noticing at all.

This was one of the items that Zach had received as a reward for constant absorption of the energy from Luna's body. Since he previously had no use for it, the dragonflies had been gathering dust in his Arsenal.

With a flick of his wrist, Zach released the dragonflies into the air. They were equipped with advanced sensors and cameras, designed to infiltrate and gather information undetected. As they flew towards their targets, Zach couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction. This was just the beginning of his plan to dismantle the Sosis family's power and claim his rightful place as the head of the Luther family.
