The human race can be said to have finally begun to pay attention to the "Abyss Order".

But... this is exactly the result the Abyss Order wanted.

Even Chloe didn't know that the "Abyss" really needed "fame".

……

Some people suspect that everyone in the Abyss Order except for the higher-ups is insane... Let me clarify, even the higher-ups are insane.

After all, when someone is infected by the Abyss, it means that their consciousness will be eroded by the Abyss's "destructive consciousness"... Anyone infected by the Abyss is a madman whose mind is filled with "destruction and ruin".

It's just that those who become high-ranking members of the Abyss Order can suppress most of the "destructive consciousness" from the Abyss.

Furthermore, the deeper one is infected by the abyss, the greater the power gained from it, and the more difficult it becomes to suppress the abyss's "destructive consciousness."

Of course, those who are deeply infected are not necessarily cadres. After all, anyone who cannot control the "destructive consciousness" of the abyss will lose the qualification to be a cadre.

This is why there are master-level officers and general-level cannon fodder within the Abyss Order.

The reason, or rather the ultimate goal, for the madmen infected by the Abyss to form the Abyss Order was to liberate the "Abyss" sealed by the Demon King.

However, they were all helpless in the face of the absolute power of the Demon Kings of all generations.

Therefore, their members infiltrate the human race, instigate conflict between humans and demons, and send heroes with "divine" power to fight against "god-level" demon kings.

With the previous Demon King now suspected of being dead, they could be very confident of achieving their Abyss Order's "long-cherished wish" by instigating another war between humans and demons.

But they can't delay too long, since a new Demon King has already appeared... So what they urgently need now is to expand their power while provoking a war between humans and demons before the new Demon King grows up.

Some of them originally intended to use their status as heroes to instigate a war... but they failed.

In order to save time, their senior management approved a plan proposed by a "new cadre"... which is what happened before.

Stella, the former Demon King, didn't stop after she finished this job. She planned to continue using the identity of "fake Liwen" to give "speech" in some remote human areas. Since she chose to be a "fun person", she was bound to disgust the hero team to the end, otherwise how could she catch a "big fish"?

As for the matter of "liberating" the abyss... what does it have to do with her? It's already good enough that she can help.

Moreover, in terms of the degree to which she has infected the Abyss, no one can surpass her, so no one can forcibly command her... except for the consciousness of the Abyss.

……

Chloe's day of slacking off at the academy came to an end.

She joked with Satania, and finally, amidst Stella's protesting gaze, "bound" Stella's identity to her "sister".

While chatting with Satania, Chloe suddenly remembered something... Where did Ilesia go?

No wonder she felt something was off... it turns out her "tagalong" had changed.

Stella said she didn't know the answer to this question... because just yesterday morning, Alesia had come to the house looking for Chloe.

But Satania seemed to remember something and said to Chloe, "Ilesia, she took the day off... Oh no, I still have her leave slip, I forgot to give it to the teacher..."

Don't let Satania's goofy appearance fool you, she's the real "class monitor"... so she knew that Ilesia had taken leave.

Although Chloe was a little puzzled as to why Ilesia had taken leave, she was relieved.

After all, Ilesia took leave, so she must be at home now... nothing should happen to her.

Besides that, Chloe had another concern: the situation with the potatoes.

Unfortunately, she spent the whole afternoon in the lab but didn't see Lindsay come to the lab.

I don't know where she went.

Furthermore, Chloe also went to the experimental field in the afternoon, but she did not see the potato she had planted.

She was also planning to ask Senior Linslet how the potatoes were doing...

However, since Senior Linslet wasn't coming to the lab, she didn't know how to contact her... Even Satania didn't know how to contact Linslet, so she could only wait until another day.

If all else fails, she can ask Lulum about this... With Lulum here in the lab, Potato should be fine.

I wonder if Lulum has returned yet...

After school, Chloe, with this thought in mind, said goodbye to Stella and Satania and immediately returned to her residence.

Upon arriving at her lodgings, Chloe entered the classroom and was immediately startled by a tall figure clad in armor. She wondered, "Who the hell is this? Why is he in my house?"

But when she looked closely, she remembered... wasn't this Lulum in her "Demon Lord form"?

Why are you wearing such thick clothes at home?

So Chloe walked over to Lulum's side, and just as she was about to ask Lulum what she was doing, she suddenly saw a little girl sitting on the sofa opposite Lulum.

Chapter 166 I can teach you how to be a prostitute~

A child I've never seen before... Did Lulum bring him back?

Chloe looked at the little girl who had appeared in her home and wondered to herself.

Although she's called a little girl... she still looks bigger than Chloe no matter what.

If we use Chloe as a unit of measurement, this little girl is... the size of 1.04 Chloe?

Ahem, let's not dwell on the details... By the way, what's that kid doing, staring at Lulum like that in the living room? The atmosphere feels a little awkward...

Chloe walked over to Lulum naturally and sat down. Then she looked at the silent Lulum and the unfamiliar little girl and thought to herself.

As she pondered this, Chloe began to examine the little girl closely…

This little girl has long blonde hair and a pair of sinister red eyes. Judging from her hair and eye color, she seems to be similar to Alesia, but the shades are somewhat different.

Of course, besides that, the reason Chloe didn't confuse her with Ilesia was actually due to the little girl's temperament.

Well... this child clearly looks like a little girl, but her innocent yet slightly alluring temperament makes her seem surprisingly mature.

Her demeanor, coupled with her somewhat revealing attire—which actually resembled erotic clothing—and her tail swaying restlessly on the sofa, made it clear at a glance that she was a loli succubus.

Well... this little girl is a bit horny, even Chloe couldn't help but take a second look.

So how could she possibly confuse this little girl with Alesia? How could Alesia possibly have such a sadistic... aura?

Hmm… Chloe thought about it and realized that saying it like that was a bit inaccurate, since Ilesia is quite… cough cough at times.

Of course, while Chloe was observing the little girl, the little girl seemed to be observing Chloe and Stella, who was standing next to Chloe.

However, she merely observed silently, without saying a word, and her expression remained unchanged.

But from the succubus tail that was restlessly rubbing against the sofa, Chloe could tell that she wasn't as calm as she appeared on the surface.

In short, he seemed a bit... reserved?

When Lulu saw Chloe return and sit down next to her, she unusually didn't speak to her. Chloe sensed the awkward atmosphere and didn't say anything either. As for Stella, she fell asleep leaning against Chloe, as if the whole thing had nothing to do with her... no, it should be said that it had nothing to do with her.

The four...or rather, the three succubi, sat awkwardly in the living room.

Although she was sitting awkwardly in the living room, Detective Chloe managed to deduce the situation.

First of all, the fact that Lulum wears armor even at home shows that the little girl sitting opposite them definitely doesn't know Lulum's true identity.

Secondly, this little girl is a succubus... and considering what Lulum did in the succubus territory today, it's not hard to guess that this little girl is a succubus.

Finally… what’s the final step? Isn’t the answer already obvious?

If Chloe's guess is correct, this should be the "Demon King's" fiancée.

Although Chloe had pretty much guessed who this little girl was, she still couldn't quite figure it out...

Did Lulu bring her home directly... or did she come along on her own?

And what exactly happened to make them sit awkwardly on the sofa?

Regarding this, Chloe admitted that she really couldn't figure it out... Even the best detective needs information!

To find out the answer... it seems the only option is to ask Lulum herself... or just ask this little girl directly.

Otherwise, information can't just appear out of thin air like in the TV series Detective Conan, right?

Thinking this, Chloe broke the "tranquility" in the living room by speaking up.

"Lu...cough cough, um, who is this lady?"

Chloe first tapped Lulum's armor with her elbow and spoke to Lulum.

She originally intended to call out Lulum's name directly, but when she heard the muffled thud of the armor, she suddenly realized... since Lulum hadn't revealed her true identity to this little girl, she probably hadn't given her real name either... so Chloe abruptly stopped herself from speaking and directly asked Lulum about the little girl's identity.

Of course, their identities are probably similar to Chloe's guess... Chloe just wanted Lulum to introduce them.

"Oh? Oh, it's Chloe. Let me introduce you, her name is Tiffany, and from today onwards, she's your... stepmother?"

As Chloe had guessed, the identity of this loli succubus named Tiffany was indeed the same, and Lulum's "manly" voice also confirmed Chloe's guess from another angle... Tiffany had no idea about Lulum's "true identity".

Moreover, Lulum didn't seem to have told her her thoughts on her own initiative.

It seems that not calling Lulum by her name was the right choice...

But what's with the term "stepmother"? It should clearly be called a mistress...

As Lulum rubbed her head with her hand armor, making her face look a little distorted, Chloe thought to herself.

And Chloe also noticed... Lulum's tone sounded like she had just woken up?

Was Lulumu sleeping just now? Doesn't that make her look really silly sitting there awkwardly?

This is why Chloe's face looked a little distorted after her head was ruffled...

Of course, besides this reason why Chloe's expression was a little distorted, there was actually another reason... that Chloe was a little dizzy.

As for why I felt dizzy... with my head being grabbed and shaken... how could my expression not be distorted?

Chloe knew that Lulum was rubbing her head because she felt that Chloe hadn't responded by calling her name directly, and she thought it was good work, but... could you please not grab her head when you're rubbing her head?

Similarly, Chloe knew that Lulum's armor was a magical armor... but how could Lulum, as the Demon King, possibly make such a basic mistake of miscontrolling it?

So, there's only one reason why Lulum rubbed her head like that!

Lulum is a little nervous... This girl named Tiffany can actually make Lulum nervous... What did she do to Lulum before?

Chloe thought about it carefully and suddenly realized a problem... that this guy named Tiffany wasn't sitting awkwardly with Lulum in the living room... but was being "controlled" by Lulum?

This was Chloe's guess after seeing Tiffany, whose expression and movements remained stiff and unchanged, frantically slapping the sofa with her tail and whose eyes were rolling back slightly.

Was she trying to hold back a laugh? Why is her tail reacting so strongly?

Do I look really that weird? Is it that funny?

"The clown is me?" Chloe continued to think to herself.

Chloe then used both hands to hold Lulum's "ruthless iron hands" and said, "Stop! Stop!", making Lulum stop rubbing her head.

After Lulum stopped, Chloe began to ask Lulum what was going on here:

"Um, may I ask, why is this Tiffany sitting on the sofa without moving? She looks like she's about to get a stitch..."

Upon hearing Chloe's question, Lulum continued in her "Demon King's voice":

"Young man, you have no sportsmanship! Come on, try to trick me! Come on, try to ambush me! I'm an old comrade who's hundreds of years old..."

"???"

When Chloe heard Lulum bring up the old, tired jokes she had told Lulum years ago, she was completely dumbfounded.

What is all this about? What is Lulum trying to say? Was she ambushed?

Despite her confusion, Chloe continued:

"Hey, even you, the Demon King, got ambushed? Is this woman an assassin? She's so brave!"

"How could she be an assassin? Didn't I just say she's your 'stepmother'? Although we only met today... As for why I said that before... emmm... just look at her reaction yourself."

After saying that, Lulum snapped her fingers at Tiffany, and immediately after the snap, Tiffany "launched" and jumped directly to Chloe's side, hugging Chloe and Stella tightly.

"So cute~ Are these your daughters, Demon Lord?"

"?"x3

Seeing Tiffany's reaction, a big question mark popped into the minds of the three of them.

"Is this what you mean by 'ambush'? But why was it me who got ambushed?...Hey! Be gentle!" Chloe said to Lulum, looking puzzled as Tiffany rubbed her face against her cheek.

“That’s not right, she clearly ‘ambushed’ me like this before…” Lulum’s tone was also somewhat puzzled.

“Dad… what’s going on…” Stella, who had been startled awake by Tiffany’s “bear hug,” asked Chloe with a puzzled expression.
