“You call this an improvement?!”
After Luoluo Yue’s tailoring, Bai Yue Ling’s airtight priest robe had finally been transformed into the style she wanted… or not!
The once-bulky robe was now haphazardly cut, resembling the avant-garde, bewildering outfits worn by fashion week models.
The succubus Luoluo Yue nodded with satisfaction.
“So artistic. This is exactly the vibe I was going for.”
Bai Yue Ling, like a bristling fox, snapped,
“Just a few scraps of cloth stitched together, and you call this artistic?!”
Luoluo Yue bristled back.
“Don’t be ungrateful! This was the hottest style among succubi a thousand years ago!”
“You…”
Bai Yue Ling backed against the wall, shivering as if caught in a cold wind.
Seeing this, Luoluo Yue’s lips curved into a smirk.
“Ho~ For such a cocky loli villainess, I thought you’d be tougher. Turns out you’re full of weak spots~”
“Shut up! I’m just a bit cold!”
Bai Yue Ling retorted, her voice defiant.
Meanwhile, Ying Ye watched thoughtfully.
So, she’s the sensitive type…
[You have identified a weakness of player “Priest Hero.” Your understanding of “Priest Hero” has increased.]
Huddled in the corner, Bai Yue Ling felt despair wash over her.
It’s over…
This damn succubus ruined the cool image I worked so hard to build in front of Ying Ye…
I wanna die.
There’s no point in living anymore.
Might as well quit the game…
Just then, Luoluo Yue chuckled.
“Alright, alright, I was just teasing. Let me show you the real features of this outfit.”
She clapped her hands, and the tattered priest robe began to shift, magically reforming into a pure white, lace-trimmed mini-dress.
“This is the dress form; you can adjust the skirt length. This is the cheongsam form; you can tweak the slit height.”
Luoluo Yue clapped again.
“Plus, there’s a bodysuit form, shorts form, swimsuit form… If you can imagine it, I can make it happen.”
Bai Yue Ling’s cherry lips parted as she watched the white fabric morph.
“That’s… amazing?”

[Note: It has tons of styles to switch between, but unless you’re a spy constantly changing identities, you probably won’t need all of them.]
Fixing the robe into a mini-skirt that covered half her thighs, Bai Yue Ling nodded, satisfied.
“Sorry for misunderstanding you earlier.”
This trash fish succubus big sister was actually pretty useful.
“I’m a renowned excellent tailor among succubi. How could I scam you?”
Luoluo Yue puffed out her chest proudly.
“And thanks for opening this damn cell.”
“Uh, even with the cell open, you can’t leave the castle.”
“I know, but at least I can move around inside now,” Luoluo Yue said, reminiscing.
“The one who locked us prisoners here was the great Goddess of Death. I never dreamed of escaping in this lifetime.”
“Goddess of Death?”
Ying Ye asked, confused.
“She’s already fallen.”
“What?! The Goddess of Death fell?!”
Luoluo Yue gasped.
“Who did it? The Goddess of Life or the Goddess of Judgment?”
“No idea.”
Bai Yue Ling shook her head.
“You’ve been locked up, so you might not know—the Divine War ended with the Dark Faction nearly wiped out…”
Bai Yue Ling gave a brief rundown of the lore, leaving Luoluo Yue dazed, slumping to the ground in a stupor.
“So, the Dark Faction is gone…”
What year is it now?
I know neither Han nor Wei nor Jin.
“At least the Goddess of Charm, whom we succubi worship, is still around…”
Luoluo Yue sighed.
“Though the Goddess of Death fell, her lingering divine power hasn’t run out, so I’m still not free.”
Even divine power would eventually fade, but how long would that take?
Centuries? Millennia?
Tens of thousands of years?
Optimistically, maybe tomorrow.
Ying Ye asked curiously, “Why were you locked up?”
“Heh… you won’t believe this, but it was just for tampering with my kin’s clothes.”
Luoluo Yue tilted her head back, a hint of pride in her expression.
“As a tailor, to keep customers coming back, I secretly laced their clothes with drugs that sparked desire, making them hooked on my services. It was fine at first—until a succubus queen sent her clothes to me…”
Hearing Luoluo Yue’s explanation, Bai Yue Ling’s mouth twitched.
“You totally deserved it.”
Ying Ye rolled her eyes, at a loss for words.
“Ugh… after that, the succubi branded me a ‘traitor’ and threw me into this awful prison,”
Luoluo Yue said softly.
“From what I know, everyone locked here is a traitor. The higher the floor, the scarier the prisoner!”
Bai Yue Ling asked, “So you’re Level 10, and the one upstairs might be Level 20?”
“No, I was Level 40 when I was locked up. Being stuck here so long weakened me to Level 10,” Luoluo Yue whispered.
“Can you imagine how terrifying the prisoner on the top floor must be?”
Bai Yue Ling shook her head.
The higher the level in this game, the harder it was to progress.
She’d only reached Level 60 at her peak.
“I can’t leave, but I’d like to ask a favor,” Luoluo Yue said, standing and pointing toward the forest depths.
“For the past month, I haven’t slept well. My succubus instincts tell me there’s an insufferable paladin out there.”
“A paladin?”
“Yes. We succubi, who feed on desire, hate the holy light of paladins,”
Luoluo Yue said through gritted teeth.
“That holy light out there shines like the sun, burning my soul every day.”
Bai Yue Ling asked,
“So you want us to kill that paladin?”
“Not just kill.”
Luoluo Yue leaned in close, her face inches from Bai Yue Ling’s.
“I can sense it—you have a vibe like mine.”
She spoke slowly.
“You’re a ‘traitor’ among your kind too, aren’t you?”
A traitor among angels… a fallen angel.
Bai Yue Ling’s breath caught, but she didn’t respond.
“Not only that, I feel a power in you that could change the world,”
Luoluo Yue said, licking her lips.
“So, can you help me corrupt that annoying paladin into the Dark Faction?”
“I want to see… pristine holy light dyed pitch-black~”
