Succubus Queen.
She was one of the closest subordinates to the Demon King, commanding her own faction of succubi.
As a high-ranking demon, she was undeniably powerful.

Of course, this was information only I knew.
The Empire’s citizens did not hold succubi in high regard.
Their perception of succubi as a species was entirely different.

Succubi were simply known to manipulate men’s dreams to drain their energy.
Sometimes, they directly seduced men through their bodies, threatening their chastity.
They were considered a race that would spread their legs for others and pretend to be prostitutes to harvest life energy, with no truth behind the rumors that spread among the Empire’s citizens.

The reason was simple.
They had no knowledge of demons whatsoever.
The war with the Demon King was always a task for the heroes, so the Empire was only concerned with fending off the small fry that came their way.
The rumors and misconceptions about succubi were a result of this ignorance.

I learned this truth through Lilith.
I also discovered the true nature of the succubi race.

They, too, valued virginity.
They cherished the emotion of love.
Even though they craved energy, they would not take it directly unless from someone they loved.
They would take a little through dreams, but only in a way that did no harm to the person.

...Above all, the succubi were very strong.
Their abilities were not limited to just charm.
And when it came to the Succubus Queen?
