"I don't get it.
When I first met you, you had changed your appearance, you even hid your Cultivation.
How did you do it?
Was it your ability?
Or was it a Magic Spell?"
Nux questioned with a frown on his face.
"That was my ability," Erotica replied.
"But you said demons had only 1 ability.
If your ability is created illusion, then how did you change your appearance?"
Nux frowned.
"I never 'changed' my appearance.
That was my ability, [Illusion].
You saw what I wanted you to see."
Erotica revealed and hearing those words, a frown appeared on Nux's face,
"Your look was… an illusion?"
"Indeed."
Erotica smiled.
Nux's face turned solemn.
This was not a good news…
He was fooled by an Illusion…
Nux didn't think of himself as an undefeatable being, however, only seeing what his opponent wanted him to see…
This was… definitely not good.
It was just too dangerous.
Heck, everything he was seeing now could be just an illusion and in truth, he was just being played around by Erotica.
Nux glanced at his wives and just like him, they had wary looks on their faces as well.
'What should we do?'
Ember questioned.
'Should we… kill her?'
Thyra suggested.
Everyone glanced at her,
'If we remove the source… the illusion should disappear on its own, should it not…?'
Thyra explained herself.
'And how do we make sure that the one we killed is actually her and not just an illusion?'
Astaria questioned and Thyra turned silent.
'…'
The other women turned silent as well.
Seeing that the room had suddenly turned silent, Erotica quickly understood the problem and smiled,
"You all don't have to be so wary,
As I said, we Succubuses are not a particularly strong race.
Illusion is a strong ability, yes, however, it is not an omnipotent ability that allows me to show my opponent whatever I wish. It has its limitations.
The current me can only 'project' the illusion on myself.
As in, I can only change my own 'State', like my appearance, my Cultivation, my weapons, and other things.
I cannot create a fake scenario and use it to fool others.
Well, I can, but in front of Emperors, who are sensitive to Mana, this will be absolutely useless since they would be able to tell the difference quite easily."
Erotica explained.
Nux and others glanced at each other, still unsure of what Erotica said.
"Anyways, Nux, I liked how you changed the topic. If it was anyone but me, you would have definitely fooled her."
Suddenly, Erotica chuckled.
"Don't worry though, I know you don't want it, I won't force you,"
Then, a smile appeared on her face as she whispered,
"Of course, if you ever change your mind, or get curious about what I was talking about, you can always come to me for answers.
If it is for you, I am always free, even in the middle of the night~"
Erotica spoke as she moved her waist seductively.
"Demon, you were talking about the opportunity."
Suddenly, Amaya spoke up as she glared at Erotica.
Erotica glanced back, then, she chuckled softly and continue,
"Anyways, as I was saying, since my ability is Illusion, I am sensitive to things like these. Therefore, while I was traveling around the ocean, I sensed a Barrier and when you find a Barrier in the middle of the ocean, you have to take action.
I trusted my feeling and moved my Ship toward the 'Barrier' I sensed and soon,
I saw this continent, which was completely invisible before."
"What are you trying to say?"
"I am saying that this Continent is surrounded by a Barrier that hides it from the outside world."
Erotica revealed.
Nux narrowed his eyes and Erotica continued,
"Of course, there is no way this Continent could have stayed hidden if even someone like me could sense the Barrier.
That meant one thing,"
"That Barrier was weakening."
Amaya spoke.
"Indeed."
Erotica nodded.
Nux and his wives started thinking, this matched what Nawdren said, so they had no reason to doubt her.
However,
"I still no nothing about the Opportunity you were talking about."
Nux spoke.
Erotica glanced at him and then sighed,
"You are a party pooper, at least let me create some suspense, will you?"
"No. Answer directly."
Astaria spoke with a cold look on her face.
"Tsk."
Erotica snorted and then,
"This Barrier was hiding your continent, but at the same time, it was also limiting the Mana in this continent, however, now that the Barrier is weakening, both these effects will disappear.
Normally, the Mana density in this continent should have increased slowly as the barrier is weakening, however, since the strongest you have reached is still the Emperor Stage, I can say for certain that the Mana Density here has not increased.
That means that only when the Barrier completely disappears would the Mana in this continent be back to normal.
However, things will never be that simple.
The unevenness created for so many centuries cannot have no impact on anything.
Once the Barrier is broken, all that Mana will rush into this continent, which means, this continent will be filled by the Mana that is moving on its own, this form of Mana would be so abundant and versatile that denizens of this continent would see an unnaturally massive boost in their cultivation speed.
Some King Stage Cultivators would even break through Emperor Stage in an instant.
And that's not it, even we, the Emperors, would have a shot at becoming a Sage.
An Opportunity like this…
This would never happen again, at least not until we find a continent similar to yours again."
Erotica revealed.
"An Opportunity to become a… Sage?"
Astaria muttered to herself.
Was she excited? Was there even a need to ask?
"This is… incredible!!"
Thyra spoke up as well.
"Of course."
Erotica nodded.
"So this is the reason you demons are here?"
"Of course, who would want to miss out on something like this?"
"So when is the Barrier going to disappear?" Amaya questioned.
Erotica, however, just shook her head,
"I do not know, however, if someone like me can sense it, then it means it has weakened to a considerable degree.
I'd say maybe 1 or 2 months at max.
After that…"
"The barrier will disappear."
Ember completed and Erotica nodded.
"Erotica, I had a question…"
Suddenly, Nux called out.
