Mechanical Alchemist

Chapter 167: Okay. But... can I put on some clothes first?

Su'en didn't expect Sabina to be bathing, but it was a good thing, which saved him a lot of trouble.

She had no clothes or equipment on her, which also reduced a lot of unexpected situations.

After all, just a glance at the nearby sink, there was a piece of jewelry identified as the "Golden Bracelet of Nito Cress," which was a very tricky spiritual curse item.

If he hadn't acted quickly, if this woman had gotten it, today's situation might have turned into a disaster.

......

At this moment, Sabina was captured, and her face instantly returned to calm. She took the initiative to speak: "Sir, I think there might be a misunderstanding between us."

Her voice seemed to have a kind of magic, soft and gentle, sounding like a harmless and delicate woman.

She pretended not to recognize him and waited for Su'en to respond.

Unfortunately, Su'en had already harvested Barbara's memories and was very familiar with the methods of the succubus.

The succubus had four methods of enchantment in actual combat: voice, gaze, scent, and body.

How could he not know what this woman was planning?

If she said too much, she would be hypnotized without realizing it.

"Shut up!"

Su'en shouted without any emotional fluctuations.

Sabina looked at his attitude and knew that the other party also knew about her "Enchanting Voice" ability.

She suddenly softened her body, looking as if she had completely given up resistance, "Okay. But... can I put on some clothes first?"

She cleverly added another sentence, giving no reason for anyone to act.

Did she really want to put on clothes?

No.

In fact, this was a reminder to Su'en that she was completely naked in front of him.

The succubus's figure was so proud?

Sabina, who was already dressed, was a charming and peerless beauty, but how could she not captivate people when she was naked?

The bathtub next to her was still emitting steam, and the faint fragrance of rose petals filled the entire bathroom.

Just out of the bathtub, she was naked, and a few petals still clung to her fair skin. Her skin was so smooth that it seemed as if even the glistening water droplets couldn't stay, and they slid down her fragrant shoulders and beautiful legs...

It seemed that she was nervous and scared, and her breathing revealed a hint of urgency, but upon closer listening, it sounded more like a seductive sound.

Her chest also rose and fell violently due to her rapid breathing, and her fair and plump skin trembled along with it...

This was definitely a body that could make any man's blood boil.

Not only was it a visual shock, but her body also exuded a special enchanting scent that would accelerate a person's blood flow.

Coupled with her coy and shy appearance, it constantly stimulated people's sensory desires.

As long as she was given a chance, she could fight back!

Unfortunately, Su'en's face was still wearing a parrot anti-toxin mask, which was not an ordinary mask, but a "Plague Doctor's Beak Mask" that filtered 99% of toxins.

The aphrodisiac toxin was also a toxin.

It was directly filtered out.

......

Su'en had already anticipated everything and would not give this woman any chance to turn the tables.

He didn't look away, unaffected at all, and said coldly, "Now, recite with me."

In addition to needing a contract formation, the "Advanced Succubus Contract" also required the succubus to actively recite an ancient demonic oath.

This was the most troublesome part.

After a pause, he directly recited a difficult oath: "&*%%..."

When Sabina heard this, a hint of seriousness flashed in her eyes.

She had just watched Su'en use a piece of parchment to absorb her blood, and then wanted her to recite something with him, naturally guessing that this was some kind of ancient ritual.

Although she didn't know what he was up to, Sabina naturally wouldn't be so foolish as to do as he asked.

She realized that this was a very dangerous ritual.

Sabina wanted to struggle and find an opportunity, and said, "We can make a deal! I can give you everything you want..."

But before she could finish speaking, Su'en suddenly picked up the dagger in his hand and stabbed it into her collarbone.

Blood spurted out, the dagger pierced her shoulder, and she was pinned to the wall.

Su'en said coldly, "Recite with me. I don't have the patience to talk to you again."

He was just here to try. If the contract couldn't be successful, he would kill this woman directly.

Dealing with this cunning and shrewd woman, or a high-ranking official of the Umbrella Organization?

Su'en wasn't so arrogant as to think he could handle it.

Sabina naturally heard the numbness in Su'en's tone and her crystal eyes turned cold.

She knew human nature too well. The man in front of her was as cold as a stone, giving her no chance to take advantage.

She knew that if she refused, this guy would definitely kill her mercilessly.

But she also absolutely wouldn't agree, so she raised her head and let out a cold snort.

......

Su'en had known that this would be the situation.

He had no mercy for his enemies.

It was originally just a test. If it succeeded, that would be great. If not, it would be a harvest of experience.

At this moment, he took out a vial of potion and injected it into Sabina's vein, saying emotionlessly, "This is the 'Interrogation Potion.' As an intelligence officer of the Umbrella Organization, you should know what this is. I know you must have received professional training, and your will won't make you yield easily. But I will keep increasing the dosage until you are hypnotized, or until you die from an overdose."

Looking at the potion, Sabina showed no emotion. She had already resigned herself to facing death.

Instead, she was more concerned about something else: "Do you know my identity?"

"What do you think?"Su'en sneered with a retort, his attention never straying from his panel. At the slightest sign of an anomaly, he was ready to kill.

After administering one injection, he took out another vial, preparing for a second dose.

At that moment, Sabina seemed to guess his intentions and asked, "Is this a Succubus Bonding Contract?"

Su'en didn't bother to hide it: "Of course. You either become my servant, or... you die."

"..."

Knowing she had no choice, Sabina's gaze became contemplative upon hearing the nature of the contract.

Suddenly, she shouted, stopping Su'en from injecting the second vial, "Wait!"

Su'en glanced at her, "Oh? Changed your mind?"

Sabina clearly understood what signing the contract entailed. Her expression eased, as if she had resigned herself to captivity, "Promise me one thing. I'll cooperate with you."

Su'en paused his action, "Let's hear it."

As a psychic professional, Sabina's will was undoubtedly strong.

An overdose of the potion could leave her a fool, if not dead.

Even if the contract was successful, it would be meaningless without her intellect.

If she was willing to cooperate, that was for the best.

Sabina said, "When you're able, help me kill someone."

Her tone sounded like she was making a final wish.

Su'en was intrigued, "Who?"

Sabina: "Severus Gerald."

Su'en found the name unfamiliar, "Who's that?"

Sabina: "The leader of the Umbrella Organization."

Without hesitation, Su'en agreed, "Fine. If I become capable, I'll kill him for you."

It wasn't an outrageous request; the leader of the Umbrella Organization was already an enemy.

If he became powerful enough, he would have to be eliminated.

With that, they reached a verbal agreement.

Su'en was surprised at how smoothly things went; he had thought she would rather die than submit. He asked, "Can you tell me why, upon hearing it was a 'Succubus Bonding Contract,' you suddenly changed your mind?"

Sabina replied calmly, "It's just a change of allegiance, nothing more. Since mythological times, succubi have always been vassals to some powerful beings. If this contract is as legendary as they say, it could be greatly beneficial to me. The stronger my master, the stronger I become."

She paused, then added meaningfully, "Besides, my loyalty to the Umbrella Organization isn't as strong as you think."

Su'en listened, slightly surprised, but said no more.

...

With Sabina's active cooperation, the contract was established smoothly.

As she recited the demonic oath, Su'en felt a mysterious connection form between thema master-servant bond that allowed him to control her life and death at will.

Soon after, a contract marker appeared on his panel, "Contracted Succubus: Sabina M. Sakarias."

"It actually worked..."

Su'en looked at the now harmless Sabina and released her.

He had only come to try; he hadn't expected to actually succeed.

He knew that once the contract was complete, she wouldn't act against him.

But curious about the contract's power, he decided to test it.

At the thought of punishment, Sabina's face turned pale as if she were in agony, and she collapsed to her knees, looking up at Su'en with pitiful eyes, devoid of anger or resentment.

Su'en knew her life hung on his whim.

He didn't continue with the punishment.

Freed from her constraints, Sabina quickly accepted her new role.

It was as if Su'en's mark had been seared into the depths of her soul.

Certain thoughts no longer seemed repulsive to her.

The tense and deadly atmosphere shifted dramatically.

Sabina looked up at the man before her with eyes filled with loyalty and obedience.

Her demeanor carried a hint of flattery and abasement, "You are my master now. What would you have your servant do for you?"

Surprised by her sudden change in attitude, Su'en was curious about the power of the contract and asked, "Do you feel any different?"

Sabina seemed to remember everything, her consciousness intact, "Nothing's different. I've heard of this contract from the elders in my family. Aside from you being my master and my obedience to your commands, it doesn't affect me otherwise."
