<~> Chapter 153I vaguely looked upwards. "Morkinnen?"

  Graodded. "Morkiends to be one of the gods most accepting of prostitutes. Generally speaking, Morkinnen and his followers do not discriminate against us, one of the few gods that let us freely purchase their services. I spoke with a priest this m to gain Morkinnen's favor before I made this promise."

  "Wait, so that oath was iional?"

  She smiled. "It was, yes."

  I sighed and leaned ba my chair. "I suppose promises mean a lot more when they're backed by a god. It's still something that feels pretty surreal to me though."

  Grace paused with a look of realization on her face. "The realm yinate from, there are no gods there?"

  I shrugged. "If there was, they weren't vocal about showing their presehere were still religions but without a god actively doing things and telling people through notifications, it was a lot harder to judge if any of them were real."

  She hesitantly nodded. "I suppose that makes se is a difficult thing to sider though. Suggesting that there were no gods would be like saying you did not need air to breathe. Just because you ot see it, that does not mean it is not there."

  Grace cleared her throat. "Anyway, that was what I wao speak with you privately about. We should move to Oe's office, she would like to speak with you this m as well. That versation should be less personal so you may bring your friends along."

  "Right, there are a few things I o tell everyone as well and I'd prefer not to repeat myself multiple times."

  The two of us got up ahe room and collected my friends before waiting in the lobby. I noticed Raya and Sibyl had joined us as well and Grace didn't object when they moved to follow us to Madame Oe's office she was ready. Inside Oe's office, I noticed that the bed that had been dragged in ushed to the side and her couches and coffee table were back where I inally saw them.

  Oe looked up from some paperwork and smiled when she saw us. "Good, you're here. I wao talk with you. Give me one moment."

  She finished up whatever she was w on at her desk and then slithered over to sit on the couch across from us. "First, I wao ask about st night. It seemed like things got... out of hand at one point and I was there when you got... bigger and grew wings. I see you're looking like your normal self again so I'm curious, what happened with that?"

  I scratched my horn awkwardly. "Well, the main thing that happened was that I hit level 50 and that triggered something the system called a 'milestone' with my in title."

  "You leveled while having sex?" Oe's eyes looked almost greedy.

  I raised my hand before she could get carried away by the thought. "Yes, my in title gave me specifiefits but they don't apply to other succubi. In faow that I've hit level 50 the title notification said I wouldn't be getting any more levels or innate abilities through it anymore. The upside though is that most of the innate and racial abilities I had gained merged and were shared with everyone. All succubi should now have two new innate abilities, [Succubus stitution] and [Being of Karma]. I don't have mupare them to but both of them seem really powerful."

  Oe interced her fingers. "How powerful? If I'm going to be getting access to these abilities soon as well, I hope you don't mind sharing the details with me?"

  "I don't mind. [Succubus stitution] merged a lot of my abilities but the most signifit ones were heat and cold resistance, darksight, magic sight, 'familial bond', which is a new ability that makes succubi stronger and more resilient to magic wheheir 'family,' and the ohat I suspect made things go out of trol st night, lustful aura. I gaihat one as I hit level 50 and my in title spread the new [Succubus stitution] ability to the entire room when no one was used to trolling the lust aura yet."

  Oe tapped her tail on the floor a few times. "Lustful aura? Aura abilities be powerful. What was its description?"

  I shook my head. "Unfortunately, I wasn't able to read it before it was merged into [Succubus stitution], all I have to go on is from the description of the new one. 'Succubi are wreathed in an aura of lust-aspected mana that they use to ehe desires of people around them and with practice, manipute the mana around them.' I was worried that it would make succubi easier to spot but I was able to hide the aura with a little bit of practice. It'll be important to teach everyone how to suppress it."

  Man's eyes were searg for the aura. "Are you suppressing it now? May I see it? Uh, now that I'm in the right state of mind...?"

  I nodded ahe aura rex and free from my body. With only a thought I was able to switch my vision to see the mana arouhe lust aspected mana looked like a slight pink haze around me and my mana sense skill let me feel the exact edge of its influence.

  "Amazing... now that I know what to look for, yeah, all of the other succubi have it too..."

  Raya and Sibyl both looked at each other before staring off aing that gssy look in their eye that meant they were cheg the system.

  Sibyl's ears went ba embarrassment. "I got out of the habit of cheg my notificatiurly when I became a prostitute. They could be... distrag at the worst of times and I never looked when I woke up."

  Raya's eyes went wide, "Woah! Why is my luck stat so high!?"

  Raya's karma was at 715 which means she should be getting 71 free luck if the version was the same as mine.

  I cleared my throat. "While [Succubus stitution] is powerful in various ways, the other skill, [Being of Karma] is probably the more powerful of the two. In addition to their ability to read other's karma, the bance of people's positive ainus their ive ohey also get a rge bonus to Lubsp;and a toggleable oo Charisma."

  Sibyl, Raya, and even Bel suddenly sat up straighter and looked at each other with their increased Charisma.

  Bel's ears went back. "This feels strange."

  "Yeah," I agreed. "Charisma feels weird when you have it on. Others with high Charisma immediately tell but it makes it easier to read others and judge your own as and how they e off to others."

  Sibyl tilted her head before noticeably slumping, likely wheurhe ability back off. "I think it only really feels strange because we turn it on or off. It felt really weird to be dropped back down to 1th and they odd after I put the points ba. If you slowly put points into Charisma like most people do, you probably wouldn't notice as stark a difference."

  "What's my karma?" Oe asked.

  I blinked. I had never actually looked. I check lots of people, sorta regurly, but I hought to look at hers.

  I looked her over before replying, "Positive 2120. That's detly high, especially for someone who isn't a batant. I think killing hostile monsters and demons tributes a lot, so that says a lot about your as to me."

  "How much of that would vert to stats?" she asked.

  "Well, if it's like miheo one, 2120 would give you a 212 bonus to Lubsp;and Charisma."

  The way Oe's eyes bulged and her mouth dropped open, I assumed that had caught her off guard. It was a lot of stats.

  Raya raised her hand. "Uh, I'm getting a different version. Mine is only giving me 35 luck when it says I have 715 karma."

  Raya was getting fewer stats, did the ability get watered dow transferred to them?

  Torien shook her head. "A five pert version is still really good. That would still be 105 luck for Oe if it rounds down. That's ten and a half levels worth of stats. Sure Lubsp;isn't a stat most people would i in but Charisma is."

  Sibyl's eyes went wide when she looked at me. "...Wait, you said it was ten to one for you Lilith? Does that mean yetting 673 free stats to both Lud Charisma?"

  She must have looked at my Karma.

  I nodded. "Yes. I used to have an ability that would give me a copy of people's positive karma when I... slept with them for the first time. That ability was stripped away when I hit level 50 but not before some of st night's y...

  Oe pinched her nose. "Gods above, I knew [World Traveler]'s sometimes had access to insanely powerful abilities but I didn't imagihis. And you said a version of this was shared with all succubi?"

  "No, not the ability that copies people's positive karma, just the part where they get free stats."

  "Just she says..." Oe shook her head with an incredulous smile.

  "Is there anything else?" Grace asked. "What about why you were se this m?"

  "Oh yeah, when I turn others into succubi, they often bee a 'lesser succubus' while I have always just been a 'succubus' up until now. When I hit 50 though it said my race evolved into a 'greater succubus.' I don't really uand how that works but Bel had been a 'lesser succubus' for a while but now she's a 'succubus." I turo Bel. "Is that still true?" I asked.

  She nodded. "My race says 'Succubus, Race hidden, dispyed as beastfolk deer,' it hasn't ged since I st looked."

  "Right," I tinued. "So when I turned 50 I got bigger and grew wings and a tail." I looked down at my clothes. "I'd rather not show off the differen height but I show off my ail." My small sheep's tail lengthened and took on its glossy bck sheen as it stretched out and ended in a spade tip.

  "Strange," Oe mumbled. "Why would your tail ge of all things? It doesn't look like the tail of anything I've ever seen before."

  "Oh, well where I e from there were stories with succubi in them and they were ofteed with spade-tipped tails and bat wings... I suppose my in title decided to give me those despite only being about sex up until now."

  Oe thumped the ground with her long naga tail a few times. "I wonder how it would affect me if I happeo ge that way." Everyone joined me in looking at her long curled tail while I tried to picture it.

  I shrugged. "I assume it wouldn't alter anything. I think your current naga form would outweigh any kinds of ges like that, not unless your transformation gave you legs. I doubt it would turail you move around on into a giant erogenous zone."

  I saw movement in the er of my eye that drew my attention to Raya suddenly very ied in grabbing at it. Before I could pull it away from her side of the couch she mao snag it and lick up the length of my tail.

  I was very embarrassed by the shuddering moan I let out as her smooth torailed up it.

  Raya looked extremely smug as I mao pull my preheail out of her grasp and shift it bay normal, cute, nenous, sheep tail.

  "Do the wings let you fly?" Man suddenly asked excitedly.

  "I'm not sure, I have no way of testing it out and I don't want to grow them in front of people, that would only invite questions. I'll have to wait until we leave town and are secluded enough not to worry about random people walking by. They don't seem big enough to carry my body but I wouldn't rule anything out with magivolved. Iories I mentioned, most Succubi could fly... or at least hover in the air. We'll just have to test it iure."

  Oe cleared her throat. "Ba topic, do you think that y will repeat itself to the same extent it did st night? It's not that I object but it would have been o know ahead of time before people started trying to t to me before I left the room.

  "I have no idea," I said. "If we give the girls a heads up on what to expect then maybe we keep everyone's aura's under trol. I think part of the issue was just that no one was expeg that ge to happen."

  "Uandable, do you want to finish up the rest of the girls tonight? I have everything sorted out now. If I ge too drastically I have the dots to assume a new identity once I know what I'm going to look like. They weren't cheap to acquire but I don't want any risk of losing the brothel, even if the bes are worth it."

  "Do you expect signifit ges?" I asked.

  Oe smiled. "Just younger I hope. I am quite fortable with my body otherwise... perhaps bigger hips wouldn't be out of the question."

  I looked down at where her torso joined with her long snake body. I think she already has nice hips but who am I to judge?
