Kapitel 110: finding who did it

Later, she found out that the succubus had many problems. While this place was their haven, it didn't mean everything was going well with them. Before Aphrodite came here, they didn't have a real leader. They did have a counsel, but as most people know, not all councils are good or function well. The problem with the succubus is that they are inherently not leaders.

They find it boring to be a leader, so no leader is elected because no one wants to do it. They were so desperate for someone who could make their almost collapsing city better that they planned to kidnap a human male, seduce him, and tame him while they were still in charge.

They were also under the threat of the other demon races because if the city failed to stand or function, other races could attack and enslave them. The orcs to the east of them were the biggest dangers because while they were really lustful, they were also really durable.

So, most of the things that the succubus throw at them are useless, and while the illusions are strong against them, there would be too many of them if they all attacked at once. When Aphrodite heard the problems, she first had to see what the problems were with the city. She learned that the city's water supply had been poisoned, so the water was getting expensive.

Another problem was that all the livestock or just wild animals in the forest near them were mysteriously dying, and they were almost short on food. Aphrodite first went to check out the water problem and saw that the water was really poisoned, but it was done by hand and not by nature, and to keep a river poisoned, the person who did it had to be close by.

She used her magic and activated her tracking magic. She quickly found a trace of the person who did it and flew towards it. She went alone because it was enough. When she arrived at the location, she saw a wooden hut in the middle of the forest where no one was supposed to live. With her senses, she could see inside, and what she saw was what she expected.

It was not an orc who came and poisoned the waters to have easier prey, but this was a ghoul. While they have no intelligence, their master or the one who controls them has plenty. Ghouls have a common thing that makes their flesh and bones poisonous to other races if you aren't strong enough.

But that poison could be transported if pieces of its flesh were taken from him like if he were in a river, the water would take his remaining skin with it. The skin of a ghoul could regenerate, so the person who controls this ghoul is smart enough to know that you could poison a water supply with just one ghoul.

While spreading her senses further around the forest, she saw something vastly moving around. The energy she felt from it wasn't that of a living person, so it should be another ghoul. To find the necromancer who controls these ghouls, she walked into the hut where the normal ghoul was staying.

The ghoul quickly stooped up and attacked her, but what could a mob do against a goddess? She held her hand before her and let her magic do the rest. The ghoul rushing over, ready to attack Aphrodite, fell to his knees as her energy came in contact with him. "Now, why don't you tell me where your master is."

The ghoul itself wouldn't say the location because it was justn't smart enough, but that didn't mean that its memories would be useless. She absorbed the memories of the monster, and finally, she knew who the culprit was. The ghoul turned to dust after she was done with him. She teleported herself to the location she had seen in the memories and found the person she was looking for.

To be honest, calling it a person is a stretch because the person before her had no skin but only bones. The thing in front of her is called a Lich, and it was the necromancer responsible for the poisoning and the killing of the animals. The Lich didn't even notice when Aphrodite arrived behind him.

He was busy contacting his ghoul while controlling his other one because he had lost contact with one of them. He couldn't control many of them at once, but losing one of them was a big problem because it would delay his plans a lot. "What are you doing?" While he was focused, he suddenly heard the most beautiful voice ever speak behind him.

While that would be comfortable for most people, it wasn't for the Lich. He is now in his secret base, where nobody is supposed to find him, but now. When he turned around, he saw a woman standing there calmly, looking at him with an amused expression on her face.

With no hesitation, the Lich shot a curse towards Aphrodite. 'I don't know how she got in, but if she underestimates me, I can easily let the curse take effected and make her my slave like all those other bitches.' The green curse was flying in the air towards Aphrodite.

In response, she blew in the air, and the curse dissipated as if it weren't something most people would die from. The Lich, of course, was shocked that one of his most feared spells was so easily destroyed. "Who... Who are you?" he yelled out. His question was met with just a laugh.

Aphrodite couldn't take him seriously. This weak being tried to attack her perfect body. 'THAT WAS UNACCEPTABLE!' Only the master is allowed this perfect body of mine. Unconsciously, her true energy leaked out because of her rage and the skeleton before her who felt it would have died from shock if he still had a heart.

Unfortunately for him, he didn't have one and had to experience this hell for a while longer. "Pay for your sins." For the first time, Aphrodite was not smiling. She waved her hand, and magical energy released from her fingertips. The skeleton couldn't resist the attack and lived in hell for what felt like thousands of years before disintegrating.
