Chapter 58: Plotting Over Breakfast

Bliss yawned, her white bunny ears twitching cutely. She sat in a wooden chair at Scarlet and Violet’s dining-room table. Like the chair, the rectangular table was also wooden. Four chairs were positioned around the table, two at each of the table’s longer sides. Amelia, who wore a black-and-white maid outfit sat at Bliss’s right. Opposite of Bliss, Scarlet, who wore a scarlet full-dress with thigh slits, sat. Violet sat in the last chair.

Bliss stretched her arms and shifted her feet. Her black high-heels lightly tapped against the gray stone of the floor. She lowered her arms, her black succubi wings giving a bit of a flutter. Her gold eyes went to the plate in front of her. There, a scrumptious-looking stack of pancakes sat, a knife and fork beside the stack. A dollop of partially melted butter sat upon the stack of pancakes.

Her gold eyes went to the bottle of maple syrup. She reached out and grabbed said bottle. Smiling, she doused her pancakes in quite a bit of syrup. Well, she did like sweet stuff. She put the syrup bottle back down and then took the knife and fork in hand. Her mouth watered as she prepared to dig into the syrup-drenched pancakes.

“You want some whipped cream with that?” Violet called out. Her non-existent eyes were on Bliss. She giggled a tad at the bunny succubus’s expression.

Bliss’s white bunny ears gave a few more cute twitches. She lowered her knife and fork. “Sure. It sounds delicious.”

Violet smiled and piled some whipped cream onto Bliss’s stack of pancakes. She looked up, her non-existent eyes going to Bliss’s gold eyes. “You want some berries with that?”

Berries too! Bliss’s gold eyes widened, her white bunny ears giving even more cute twitches. Her black succubi wings fluttered, and even her white bunny tail twitched. Her mouth watered. “Sure. Give me some berries.” Her bunny ears gave yet another cute twitch as she watched Violet add some red berries atop the impressive-looking pile of pancakes sitting in front of her. Her gold eyes glistened. Her mouth watered. This looks positively delicious!

She moved her knife and fork toward the pancakes. She gulped. She easily cut into the delicious-looking pancakes. She then popped a bite-sized piece into her mouth. She chewed. This is … She swallowed and closed her gold eyes, her white bunny ears twitching. This is delicious! Her eyes opened, and her black succubi wings fluttered. I love these pancakes! She took another bite.

“So …” Violet spoke between bites of her own pancakes. “When were we heading to the surface? Today?”

Scarlet looked to Violet. “Actually, there is something to be done before heading to the surface.” Scarlet took a bite of her own pancakes.

“Oh …” Violet took another bite of pancakes. She chewed and then swallowed. “What is there to do?”

Bliss watched the two of them converse, her gold eyes going back and forth between the two eyeless seers. Her white bunny ears twitched. She put down her knife and fork and then took her glass of juice in hand. She took a sip. All four of them had their own glass of sweet, red juice.

“I …” Scarlet paused for a moment, taking the opportunity to sip her juice. “I want to take a seed of the Tree of the Depths with us.”

“T-The Tree of the Depths.” Violet paled. She put her knife and fork down and then took a deep breath. Her color returned to normal. “Are you sure that is a good idea? I do not think the Sect of the Depths will just give you a seed.”

This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.

“I doubt they would.” Scarlet took a bite of pancakes. She chewed and then swallowed. “We will infiltrate the base of the Sect of the Depths and help ourselves to a seed.”

“How exactly are you going to do that?” Violet took a sip of juice.

“I will use the back door.” Scarlet spoke matter-of-factly. She picked up her glass of juice and took a sip.

“Do you have a key to the back door of the Sect of the Depths’s base?” Violet pouted, crossing her arms. Her non-existent eyes were on Scarlet.

“Well …” Scarlet glanced away. “I do not have a key.” Her non-existent eyes returned to Violet. “I know who does though.” Her gaze shifted away from Violet and to Bliss. “I also have a plan for getting the key from him.”

Bliss blinked, her white bunny ears twitching. She set down her knife and fork as both Violet and Amelia turned to her as well. Why is everyone suddenly just staring at me? A bead of sweat rolled down her right cheek as her bunny ears gave a few more twitches. Ruby Red glinted from her big bosom.

“There is a member of the Sect of the Depths who stays at a tavern.” Scarlet’s non-existent eyes were still on Bliss. “This member has a key to the back door of the Sect of the Depths’s base.” She leaned a little closer to Bliss. “He has a thing for bunny women.”

“H-Has a thing for bunny women?” Bliss took a big gulp of her juice. Please say her plan is not for me to honey trap the key out of him.

“He has a thing for bunny women.” Scarlet sat back in her chair and crossed her arms. Her large breasts bulged out over them. “A bunny succubus should be close enough.” She lowered her arms and leaned toward Bliss again. “What you need to do is get him to take you to his room, put him to bed, and then take his key.”

“P-Put him to bed?!” Bliss’s bunny ears and bunny tail both twitched, a pink tint settling in on her cheeks. Her black succubi wings fluttered. “Please say that is not some sort of sexual euphemism.”

“It is not some sort of sexual euphemism.” Scarlet deadpanned, her non-existent eyes still on Bliss. “Just charm him into taking a nap when it is just the two of you.”

I … I can do that. Bliss’s white bunny ears drooped in relief, her blush fading. A look of determination settled in on her face. “I will get that key.” She blinked as a thought occurred to her. “Wait. How will I know which key is the right key?”

“If my information is right, he labels his keys.” Scarlet took a sip of her juice. “Just read the labels until you find the right key.”

Bliss smiled, her gold eyes sparkling. OK. So honey trap him into his room. Charm him unconscious. Then take his key. I can do that. She looked to Violet, who stood up.

Violet stepped up to Bliss. “As the Sect of Jade Night’s tailor …” She leaned toward Bliss. “I will handle your outfit for this quest.” She smiled. “If you are done eating, come with me.”

Bliss blinked, her white bunny ears twitching cutely. She glanced back to her plate of pancakes. “Just give me a little longer. I am still kind of hungry.” Ruby Red glinted from her big bosom.
