Chapter 266: Chapter 10 Ancestral and Bloodline Dreams
"Boom~"
"..."
"Whoosh..."
"..."
As the sound of the roaring gale echoed in her ears, Satan Ye gently opened her eyes. She looked dazedly at the towering tree in front of her and the surrounding grassland.
It was a large and beautiful grassland, lush with greenery. Many white sheep could be seen grazing... In the distance, there was a gray tower, and even farther away, an expanse of ominous rain clouds.
However, this did not detract from the bright and beautiful scenery around her.
"Where is this place? Hilena?"
Satan Ye asked, looking around for the figures of Hilena and her other personal maids, but she saw no one else... Where had she ended up?
Confused, Satan Ye looked around, glanced down at her nightgown, then looked up at the beautiful sky. Her gaze settled on the magnificent tree.
The towering tree was still very large, though significantly smaller than the World Tree she had seen at the Silver Moon Tree Court... This tree was large enough to reach into the clouds, its top obscured by them.
Satan Ye lifted her head and made eye contact with a set of vertical pupils.
"Huh?!"
Clearly not expecting this, Satan Ye exclaimed in surprise but quickly took in the full sight of those eyes... They belonged to massive creatures covered in scales, with giant wings, claws, and tails.
"Wow! Kin..."
Satan Ye had not seen dragons in a long time, and she had not transformed into her dragon form in ages. After all... Moving around in dragon form consumed more food, and the power of her Dragon Breath wasn’t necessarily stronger than the flames she released in human form.
Additionally, she couldn’t wield weapons in dragon form. Her claws and teeth weren’t as powerful as her Magic Armor. Sleeping was inconvenient due to her size, and it was difficult to scratch if her scales itched.
"Boom~ Boom~ Boom~ Boom~ Boom~"
Under Satan Ye’s gaze, the dragons perching on the tree trunk took flight, creating a massive downdraft, landing on the ground in front of her.
Countless dragons stared curiously at Satan Ye. It was then that she saw... Among these dragons, many were Crimson Demon Dragons like herself, though there were also many other types of dragons, some of which had humans and other creatures on their backs.
"You all..."
Satan Ye was about to ask something but stopped. She inexplicably sensed... a connection, a bloodline bond from these dragons, akin to what she felt with her father or when Yila spread her wings as a Crimson Dragon.
However, Satan Ye had never seen these dragons before.
Gazing at the dragons, Satan Ye focused on a Crimson Dragon lying on the ground, its massive head resting near her, both of them staring at each other.
The reflection of Satan Ye’s figure was visible in the dragon’s crimson eyes. In those eyes, Satan Ye, appearing as a scarlet figure, gently extended her hand and placed it on the dragon’s nose.
A stronger sense of the bloodline connection surged through Satan Ye, a mysterious feeling crystallizing at this moment... making Satan Ye realize who these dragons truly were, or where she currently was.
"Ancestors?"
Satan Ye spoke, with her bloodline affirming its existence at this moment... That was why she had dreamed of this.
"Roarrrrrr!!!!!!"
"Roarrrrrr!!!!!!"
"Roarrrrrr!!!!!!"
"..."
As soon as Satan Ye’s words fell, and she realized she was in a dream, these dragons collectively roared, heads raised... These witnesses of the end of the dragon era and the beginning of the era of gods roared in a language she couldn’t understand.
And at this moment, the dream shattered loudly.
——————————
"Ha..."
Satan Ye sat up abruptly, staring at the familiar ceiling of her bedroom, heavily breathing: "Ha... Huff... Ha... Huff... Ha... Huff..."
Hilena, who seemed never to sleep and was waiting by the bedside, immediately looked at Satan Ye with concern, asking, "What’s wrong, Your Highness Satan Ye, did you have a nightmare?"
After Favignano’s death, Satan Ye had frequent nightmares. Was she recalling something again?
"Hmm~Not a nightmare... but not exactly a good dream."
Satan Ye replied, leaning back on the bed, hesitantly recalling the dream’s content, "It was a very strange dream involving many dragons... ancestors who passed down the bloodline to me."
After a brief pause, Satan Ye pondered, then said with certainty, "There were no signs of my father, grandfather, or mother, only more distant ancestors."
Bloodline... Hilena felt she, as a succubus, had the expertise to discuss this, but she’d never had any dreams of meeting ancestors. Her dreams mainly involved liberating her nature.
As a succubus working seriously on "building the Demon King Territory" rather than engaging in activities succubi found "serious," suppressing her nature every day was truly hard.
The succubus maids solved each other’s needs daily, but Hilena never dealt with that aspect herself... Fortunately, as long as she didn’t attempt it the first time, the urge wouldn’t flare up afterward.
"What time is it now?"
Responding to Satan Ye’s question, Hilena glanced at the dim sky, replying, "Dawn. The sun has not yet fully risen. If you wish to sleep more, you have plenty of time."
Though she said so, Satan Ye usually did not insist on waking up early... unless there was an early meeting.
However, Satan Ye clearly did not intend to go back to sleep.
...
Stepping out of the room, planning to get something to eat, Satan Ye and Hilena saw Yila, chatting with the blushing succubus maids and ghost maids. It was surprising since Yila usually showed no interest in women.
"Mr. Yila!"
"Lord Yila."
"..."
Hearing their greetings and watching the maids instantly compose themselves, Yila turned with a wry smile, saying, "Just in time, I wanted to discuss this... I plan to replace the ceramic bottles in the Demon King Territory with glass ones."
Hmm? Did we arrive just in time? Is there some difficulty? The maids shouldn’t be uncooperative...
Under Hilena’s perplexed gaze, Yila awkwardly covered his face, saying, "I can barely get a word in. They keep chattering away, mainly... expressing their affection."
"..."
Hilena: "..."
Hilena: *stares intensely*
Maids: "Eek!"
Maids: *Scattering away!*
...
Under Hilena’s gaze, the maids dispersed in disarray.
