I'll also work hard to conquer the dungeon today.

Chapter 667 2.5 [Lust - Adele] The Truth: Part 2

"It's incredibly ironic to hear you say that," Adele said hoarsely, her voice filled with deep disgust.

After resting for a while and feeling that he had recovered enough, he continued to press, "You said you killed him, so how do you explain the succubus in the royal city now?"

Lanlos glanced at Adele and said calmly, "It's simple, he's resurrected. In fact, I still don't understand how he was resurrected. After all, when I was making the prophecy, I deliberately chose the only way he couldn't be resurrected in the prophecy, dismembered his body and hid his heart."

“Then his heart…” Adele paused, suddenly having a bad thought.

"Isn't it right on you?" Lanlos lifted his eyelids and said.

"What?" Adele asked instinctively.

"I don't know whether to describe this as fate or destiny. That day you were on the verge of death and Lycia brought you back. Coincidentally, I had just killed that little succubus. Then Lycia asked me to save you, so I casually gave you the little succubus's heart, and that's how you survived."

In their eyes, it became that you killed that little succubus, so they found you extremely annoying no matter what.

It's normal that you haven't seen that little succubus and don't know of his existence. After all, he had just died when you arrived, and they believe you were responsible for his death, so no one wants to mention him in front of you.

Lanlost paused, then continued, "The title of the Seven Deadly Sins did not appear after the king disappeared, but existed before that. It's just that the king's disappearance caused the power to maintain 'Paradise' to fall entirely on Lilia and Ji Qi."

Initially, the two were unable to withstand the power, so for a long time, time and space in 'Paradise' were in a relatively chaotic and distorted state. This led many people to mistakenly believe that the Seven Deadly Sins titles only appeared after the king's disappearance. However, after the two got used to it, 'Paradise' finally returned to normal.

Incidentally, Lilia and Ji Qi now possess only one-tenth of their former power, as they dedicate nine-tenths of their strength to maintaining 'Paradise'.

He only learned about this information later, after he switched sides, but it was precisely because of this that his resolve was strengthened.

Lanlos gently placed his hand on Adele's shoulder and used his ability to heal it.

"In the matter of Li Yang and Yan's deaths, the source is indeed related to me. Qi planted a seed of jealousy in me, which amplifies any jealousy that arises in my heart a hundredfold. When I lost control, I provoked Yan, since she's easily enraged and ready to explode, and then Yan came to kill you."

Just then, you were holding a knife, guarding against the snake that Li Yang was teasing you with. Li Yang didn't want Yan to act too impulsively and confront her. Then Qi arrived, and his presence caused the jealousy between the two to rise steadily. A few simple words from you made them completely lose control.

Both men were critically wounded and on the verge of death. You were found by Qi and Xie Er, covered in blood and holding a knife. I was called to treat the two men, and in order to solidify your guilt, I killed them as well. Thus, your crime was established, and Ji Qi, following the king's orders, imprisoned you. Even now, thinking back on it, I still feel extremely resentful for being betrayed by jealousy.

The deaths of Li Yang and Yan were actually caused by jealousy of that guy, but he was only indirectly involved and had no idea that the cause of the incident was actually himself.

As for him... he was mainly annoyed at being schemed against by jealousy, so he simply confirmed it and pinned the blame on Adele. Of course, it wasn't entirely a frame-up; the most important thing was to imprison Adele in a closed space, thereby preventing Urias from being resurrected.

Lanlos pondered for a moment and said softly, "Although I dismembered the little succubus and dug out his heart, I still don't feel entirely safe. So, having you locked up is to prevent any possibility of his resurrection. The deaths of Li Yang and Yan were part of my plan. As for the reason... it's probably because Ji Qi was sent to protect Rong Yi, and Qi and Xie Er weren't so easily assassinated. In the end, only Li Yang and Yan remained. By eliminating three enemies and removing a potential threat at once, don't you think it's a good deal?"

"Unfortunately, I underestimated that little succubus's abilities. She didn't die completely, but instead resurrected in the abyss. Now, she's back. But it doesn't matter. As long as you're still in my hands, she won't be able to overcome that hurdle and successfully grow up."

"Actually, I wanted to kill him again, but unfortunately, Jealousy and Pride protected Urias too well, and I had no chance to make a move. And now there's another Lilia in the castle, so I can only ask you to do it for now."

"Now, lust is you. As long as you live, the title can never pass over you to him; as long as you live, he can never possess his own heart of lust. You are a very good pawn, and I can't kill you right away."

However, everything carries a certain risk. Although Adele is alive and Urias can no longer become a true lust, he might still discover her. If Urias finds her, he might be able to pass through his heat cycle and successfully grow into a true succubus.

However, as long as Urias is not lustful, there must be a way to control him.

But if Adele dies, Urias will grow a new heart and become a true lust, which he doesn't want to see. Although if Adele dies, Urias will never reach adulthood again.

"Let's leave the truth of what happened back then here for now. You've gotten the information you wanted, and there's no need for you to know anything more. Of course, if you want to cooperate with me, I'd still be happy to oblige," Lanlos said softly as he turned and walked out of the cell.

"Aren't you afraid I'll commit suicide?" Adele said coldly, staring at Lanlos's retreating figure.

Lanlos chuckled, his silver eyes flashing with disdain. "Trying to kill yourself by biting your tongue? Forgive me for being blunt, but your teeth aren't strong enough to bite off your tongue. You won't die, but it will definitely hurt. Given your pampered nature since the beginning, I really don't believe you would dare to do it."

Adele lowered her eyes and stopped talking. Lanlos was right; he really didn't dare. His sensitivity was ten times that of others, and he simply couldn't bring himself to do those brave acts of self-harm.

He was really afraid of pain, but...

Is it really a good thing to abandon your self-respect and just eke out a living?
He had tolerated Lanlos for so long that he had forgotten the exact time.

The cold prison was silent for a long time before a weary sigh could be heard.

“You win, Lanlos. This time… I truly admit defeat…”

This is a story about lust, so everything about Adele and Uriah's relationship is related to that thing.

However, I don't write erotica, so you can use your imagination.

All the explanations for Adele and Urias are actually quite simple and straightforward; just think of it in terms of sex, after all, it's a story about lust.
