Chapter 2: Life Drain

As I felt my body disappear from the white world, I suddently found myself on top of an altar. There were several shady men around me, and if I do basic fantasy 101, these guys are the ones who summoned me. I could feel that my body was very different from what it used to be, meaning I felt a weight on both my front and back. 

A little after I arrived, the men stopped mumbling incohesively and began to talk excitedly with one another. Shame that I don't understand their language... 

I stayed on the altar to assess my situation. In my past life, I was a black-belt in several martial arts, examples being aikido, karate, judo and taikwando, so I'm confident I can take down these men if I add my new and improved body, but I'm curious to see what they want from me.

One of them, probably their leader, came up in front of the altar and kneeled a couple meters away from me. "Oh great demon! We wish to seek your guidance to spread our great sect, we beseech you, please help us!" The man talked in english, but with what sounded like a very bad nordic accent. 

Huh, I'm not a fan of terrorists or cultists, and these guys definitely step inside of the stereotype, that said, it could be useful to use them to get established. However, for as much as I like chaos, I'm not a senseless mass-murdering terrorist, so I have a better idea...

I walk next to the kneeling man, who was still looking down and I touch his forehead and try to prod into his mind. I somehow am able to do so, I don't know how I do it, but I just do. I destroy his mental fortitude and take over his mind, essentially turning him into a mindless slave. I then order him through our newborn link "Order these men to get out."

"Men, I must speek to the demon in private! Leave!" The 6 remaining guys look at their leader with a questioning look, but leave the room anyway. As soon as they do, I go back inside of the mind of the leader and take away his memories. Oh, so they are indeed terrorists, and the worst of their kind in their own rights too. Kidnapping children to use as sacrifice, placing bombs near public areas, killing anyone who doesn't follow their cult... The list goes on and on. They're apparently led by a really rich and powerful 'villain', whom gives them money in exchange for them completing certain missions.

I spend another 5 minutes sorting his memories. Apparently, the world has four major forces: The military, the villains, the heroes and the rogues. The military are people who don't have superpowers and they generally fight wars and villains, but occasionally they also target enemy nation's heroes. Heroes and villains are... heroes and villains? One protects the people and the other does mafia-like activities, not much to be said. Rogues are neutral, and differ between one another. They range from dumb kids who try to act cool to seriously dangerous and/or strong people.

There appear to also be other races that derivate from humans. They're called mutants, and range from vampires, werewolves, elves, people made of metal... These mutations often derivate from unlocking one's inner power, which is essentially the power heroes, villains and rogues almost always have. Said powers can be almost anything, from being able to clean anything to perfection to being able to spew fire out of your mouth.

With an idea of the world around me, I focus on the last thing I still don't know. Myself. I look around the room and conviniently, there is a mirror-like wall on one side. I walk next to it, but the sight that follows does impress me a little.

There was a girl around her 20's standing in the mirror. Red hair came down all the way to her back and two wings sprouted from said back. They had were black on the muscle and bones, and red in the leathery skin inbetween. She also had a long and red tail with a black spear-like tip at the end. With a beutiful face, two 40cm long horns came out of her temples that curved downwards. Along with decent breasts and a nicely-shaped butt, she looked quite god-like. Well, that's me... I guess God Attribute isn't just for show... I was only waring

This book's true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience.

I admired myself for a while, then began to try to move my tail. It was quite the weird feeling, it felt like having an arm that could bend in all directions. I even petted it for a bit, and it felt really good... Well, considering I'm now a succubus, I suppose sexual interaction in general will feel even more pleasant, thogh now that I think of it I don't exactly 'feel' the need to go and rape men, I still felt hunger when I saw those guys, but I feel as if sleeping with them isn't completely necessary.

I walk back to the man who had a completely unfocused look on his face. He will never wake up again, considering I burned all of his memories and shut down his consciousness. He's essentially a walking puppet now... Poor guy. Not. he was a creepy and sadistic cultist who could even be considered a terrorist, so no guilt for him. Not that I'd feel any even if he was innocent though.

When I'm right in front of the man, I take his face with both of my hands and place a deep kiss on his lips. I then wrap my wings around ourselves, and my instincts take over. I begin to drain his life away, which somehow gets me extremely... excited. I couldn't help but to almost bite him as I kissed him more, too bad the feeling soon stopped and I noticed that the man was dead. 

Well, that wasn't the plan. I was planning on using him to get out of here, but it seems that eating might be a bit... addicting. Dangerously addictive considering I lost all of my reasoning. I'm going to need to watch myself next time I do it...

I sigh and decide to leave the room. I walk out of the door and find myself in what looks like a small cavern, the exit was located a hundred or so meters above the surface. I guess they wouldn't summon a demon in a nice and public location, huh... About that, how am I supposed to interact with humans without being killed on sight? Can I hide my nature or something similar?

There were some people standing around, and they definetly looked suprised to see me exit. "Well, hello humans. Mind taking me out of this place for now?" I say, trying to hint that I'd help them. One guy walks to me and says "Yes ms.demon. Please follow me." 

And so I do. I keep my ears sharp to hear shouts from my back should they find out about the man's corpse, but there were none. How lucky is it that they're dumb enough not to notice a guy's missing? 

When we finally reach the cave's exit, I look around with amazed eyes. We were on a pretty high mountain, and you could see trees all below us, and if you strained your eyes hard enough, you could even see a city in the distance. Said city had skyscrapers, parks, glass buildings and other modern-day building. How sad, medieval worlds hold their charm... Guess I won't see one in my... second life.

The guy who escorted me turned around and was about to say something, but I caught his head with my hands and planted a kiss on his lips, thus taking control of his mind. I took all of his memories about the layout of the city, geography, history and also tried to see local villains and heroes, but his mind burned out before I could do so. How sad is it that I can only eat away a certain amount of knowledge before the victim becomes a mindless slave... 

I look back and make sure nobody is around, then give the guy a hug and plant yet another kiss, taking his life away. This time, I do it a lot slower, which lets me retain my control. After a minute, he finally runs out of life and dies. Feeling full, I unfold my wings and try to fly away. I was a bit shaky at first as I glide down the mountain whilst skimming over the treetops, but soon I get confortable with the feeling of flight.

After 10 minutes of flying, I land on a treetop and squint my eyes to take a look at the cave. I can see that some men were outside and seemed quite angry. I guess they didn't quite want me to escape... Well, sucks to be them, as I'm as free as a bir... demon can be!

I landed near a road that went straight into a city and tried to will myself to change my form. Well, emphasis on tried, since I couldn't actually do it. I gave up after 30 minutes and resigned myself to relying on my luck. Will they attack me on sight on consider me a mutation? It's not that mutations are appreciated, but they're not shunned too badly either, so hopefully...

I entered into the road and began to walk towards the city. I was barely wearing short pants and only had a sport bra on, essentially shouting to the world 'I'm a perverted succubus, I'm trouble! Come and kill me~!', which kind of wasn't the impression I wanted to give out right now...

As I approached the city, I could see some people trailing behind me. They had guns in their hands, and didn't look too afraid to use them. How annoying... How did they even find me?!
