Succubus-san's Life in a Another World Chapter 8

I seem to have done something wrong but, that’s not the problem. It’s the injured guy. At this rate it’s going to get pretty dangerous.
Due to me being reincarnated as a Succubus, I seem to be able to sense a living being’s Life Essence now. The so called Life Essence is necessary to stay alive, and so under heightened emotions, it fills up. Naturally when thinking lewd thoughts, it’s practically leaking out, so it seems like at these times it’s as delicious as it can get. But since up until now I only met men so far, I don’t really feel like trying some. Though that’s the main cause of my hunger right now.

And so, that guy’s life essence is steadily running out. It feel to me like it’s continuously leaking outwards. If he’s not healed immediately, he probably won’t last. I ran to him and examined his wounds.

「Uwa, were you stabbed by some c.r.a.ppy sword? There’s even rust all over it… Nn~, seems like the organs were damaged too huh. So healing the surface is probably useless. There’s the risk of infections too, so disinfection is going to be necessary huh. In that case… Uhhh, I ask, for the healing of the one before me… Uhhhhh… this doesn’t even really matter so just get healed already, dammit! “Heal” then “Cure”!!」

Chanting’s too bothersome, so forget it! It’s fine! This is an emergency you know!? Then here I hold out my hands. This holding out thing’s surprisingly pretty important. Imagining the target becomes a lot more easier, and most of all, what I’m doing right now can be easily understood. If I just use magic standing still, the others wouldn’t get what I’m doing and would just end up getting confused, you see.

「…Good. With this it’s probably fine now.」
「Grey!? Grey!!」
「Nn…… Lysha… I’m……」
「Ahhh… Grey!!!」

……I ended up helping him but, he’s a got a girlfriend, huh. Should I have just left him be? No, just seeing them happy like this makes it worth the it. To all the couples out there at places I can’t see, go explode.

「Thanks, we owe you our lives. Let me offer you my grat.i.tude. My name’s Grimhart. The guy you just healed is called Grey, the one clinging to him’s Lysha. That exhausted guy over there’s called Jarvis, and the one that’s still shocked behind him’s Arisa.」

「No, well, it wasn’t really that… My name is… right, Lily. Un, I’m Lily.」

As I was about name myself, I suddenly realized. My body’s Lily herself but, “I” am not Lily. Then who am I? Thinking about it for a bit, I realized that, since I’ll be living with is body from now on, my old name’s unnecessary. After all, man’s name doesn’t really fit well with this beautiful body. Moreover, a j.a.panese name would feel out of place in this world. So in that case, from now on, in both name and reality, I’ll be living as Lily.

「Hmm, understood Lily…-san. Once again, not only for saving us from this crisis, but also for saving my friend’s life, I offer you my grat.i.tude. If possible, I’d like to offer a reward as thanks but unfortunately, we’re in the middle of a job so we don’t have any money at hand. If reach Motsi, the we have some savings over there but…」
「Just call me Lily. Being called like that by someone older than me makes me feel uneasy. Also I don’t need the reward. It’s the helping each other in times of need and such, right?」
「Hmm… then I’ll do as you ask Lily. Still, we won’t feel satisfied with just leaving it at words. You don’t want money so, do you have any request?」
「Well, even if you ask me that….」

Hmm, it’s getting a bit troublesome now. Should I have just left immediately after helping them? Well, I finally found some decent people after all, so I’d like get various information but… Well, leaving now looking cool and all sounds good too, right? Or so I thought but, I’ve made a critical miscalculation. That’s right. Up until now, I was enduring my hunger. I was able to somehow forget about it since there was an emergency but, now that the tension’s gone, it hit me all at once.

「Wha…?」
「Ah, hey!?」

And unable to endure my extreme hunger, I suddenly collapsed. And as I approached my limits, my stomach started to cry discontent.

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

「S-sorry. Can I just, ask for a meal?」
「Y-yeah. By all means, help yourself.」

At this moment I realized, a cool stylish exit was impossible for me to do.

Heya! Exams are done(For now…), so I can start stocking up on chapters again!! Anyways, I’d like to talk about the skills and such.

It’s not really a spoiler or anything but, the so called ‘Skills’ are the abilities that is unique to an individual or species. Rather than skill, it would be probably be better to just call it ability or such, but our protagonist is a fantasy doujin author, so that’s that. There aren’t really anything like the Overlord or Death March or Swordbro kind of leveling and skills. In short, this is a purely sword and magic world with a some kind of leveling that isn’t really leveling but rather just getting stronger the more you live, fight, and succeed kind of thing. So pure warriors are really just strong men skilled with weapons. And mages are probably in demand. Also, I just realized but, the reason our protagonist received exp from all his fans fapping to his books is because she’s a Succubus, THE s.e.x Demon. So that’s that.

Finally, No to Goblin discrimination please. Just because their a bit dumb and weak, doesn’t mean that it’s fine to treat them like they’re pests. Goblin lives matter too.
