Lord Of Succubi:Transmigrated As A Dual Cultivator In Isekai Of Magic

Chapter 65 Chapter 65 Jealous Crystal

Instead of sitting next to Nora, she circumvented her way around the table, going behind Mrs. Russell, and took her place right beside her lord. Nora was indifferent about it all, but the lady of the house was not too pleased. She had completely forgotten about the doctor's lady companion.

Nora played the host;

"Crystal is it? Hope the accommodations are to your liking? Sorry, but we're poorly staffed at the moment, so we can't give you a lady-in-waiting."

"That's okay. . ." she said with a surprising regal poise; "I can take care of myself."

"Wonderful. Please help yourself to some milk and fruit. We're a light breakfast family."

Nexus tried to cut in here with an explanation as to why she would not be eating.

But Crystal took it upon herself to reply;

"Actually, I don't eat breakfast." she redirected her knowing gaze at Mrs. Russell; "I'm still very full from the last time I ate."

The lady of the estate barely even acknowledged her. Covertly, she signaled her daughter to go on with the next itinerary;

"So, Nexus," Nora cleared her throat; "I would very much like my mother's treatment to continue. . ."

Crystal's ear twitched at the mention of the word treatment. Something was off. She cocked her heads sideways, towards the bubbly woman seated at the head of the table, and observed her through her squinted eyelids.

". . .but I would never disrespect you by asking you to work for free. So, I would like to offer you a contractual payment of ten thousand gold coins and three thousand silver pieces. . ."

She clasped her hands together on the table;

". . all paid up front of course."

Nexus ear tingled. Quickly, he calculated a rough estimate of the gold equivalent in his planet's currency.

Fuck! It was just shy of half a million dollars! He could easily live comfortably off that, while making more money on the side. He could even diversify by investing heavily in the prime real estate of this city.

Nexus' mind ran riot with the possibilities. The money was so close, he could practically taste it.

But then, reality sank in, dulling his vividly colorful imagination, and swaddling him with a gray blanket. Only a quick glance around, and Nexus was reminded of the dilapidated state of the Russell family.

What was he doing? Of course he couldn't take it. This was probably Monica's money.

"That won't be necessary Nora. I can't take anymore money from you."

"Of course you can. I stupidly paid a ton of money to fake healers in the past- all for doing nothing. It would be evil of me to not give you your due as the only one whose been able to cure my mother."

Again, the word 'cure' hit Crystal like a thunderbolt.

She kept looking at the big breasted noblewoman- trying desperately to figure out what was so off about her. She could sense it. It was there- in the air around her, coming from. . .

"I'm sorry about your previous encounters with fake healers. . ." Nexus was speaking now;

". . .but you've already paid me quite a handsome sum. So as far as I'm concerned we're even."

Lady Russell leaned forward;

"Dcotor, I know you're trying to be considerate about my family's finances, and I really respect that. But it's not your duty to be worried about things like that. The money is yours. You've earned it. I feel so much better now."

Suddenly, right there and then, the smell hit Crystal's nose like a sledgehammer.

It was his cum! It was her master's cum! It was inside this noblewoman, sitting within her uterus like a pool, slowly filtering into every part of her body- bubbling, and filling her with his life force.

A violent surge of jealousy gripped her. She pictured it; this witch, on top her master, moaning and groaning, stealing his semen for herself. Crystal's hands closed into tight fists by her side as she began to boil.

But the object of her hatred did not even glance in her direction.

". . .it's simply a matter of principle Lady Russell. There's nothing more to it."

She sighed.

"Well, if it's a matter of principle, then I can not force you to go against what you've laid down as your personal mantra. . ."

Crystal was no longer listening.

She eyed the fruit knife just in front of her. For a moment, she toyed with the idea of murdering Lady Russell on the spot. Just two movements and two seconds- that was all she needed.

But Nexus' image poured into her mind. It filled her consciousness like honey, soothing her nerves, and robbing her of her. She began to slowly calm down. During her time with him, she had learned that Nexus never did anything without a good reason. Most times, it came from a place of empathy.

So, she sat there, clothed in an expensive gown, mouth shut, watching the noblewoman talk, and forcing herself to ignore the smell of his semen in the matriarch's veins.

Having concluded the transactional part of the conversation, the general atmosphere in the room relaxed further into one of familiarity and satisfaction.

Through the window, outside, the sun shone in the cloudless bright sky. Gentle gusts of breeze swept through rose garden outside, filling the room with smiles, laughter and hope. The lady of the estate nibbled away at the fruit platter mindlessly. Nora continued to chat away freely. Nexus indulged them both with an equally warm smile.

But Crystal remained aloof.

Her arms remained folded across her chest, and with a mini scowl on her face, she sat down sulkily- hoping Nexus would notice and ask her what was wrong.

It proved to be futile. In fact, it backfired. Her lord didn't even as much as glance her way for the rest of breakfast.

The small happy group began to disband when Lady Russell rose up;

"I'm guessing you guys have something lined up for the day. So, please, don't let me keep you . . ."

She regally rose to her feet using the arm chair for support;

"So, I'll be retiring to my room for now. I hope everyone ends up having a great day."

Nora promptly rose up to attend to her mother;

"Here, let me take you up mother."

"Thank you child."

Nora nodded curtly at Nexus and Crystal, then took her place by her mother's side. They chit chatted as they drifted away;

"Mother, I'm a little surprised you haven't requested for today's new sheets already. . .did you forget? Should I have the servants bring it up instantly. . ."

Their voices began to drift off, till their words were no longer coherent.

But Crystal's sharp ears had heard enough to figure out why the lady was shying away from replacing her sheets.

The succubus' eyes stung as her vision blurred from the hot tears welling up. Her trembling lips parted, as she opened her mouth to ask Nexus why. But her sense of duty came crashing down on her like a towering ocean wave. How could she ask him that? What right did she actually have?

She lowered her head and bit down on her quivering lower lip.

'Don't be stupid Crystal. . .remember your place. . .remember your fuckin' place. . .'
