《The Tentacle of Fate》 Chapter 1: Probing the Deep Humans are weak, perhaps the weakest race of them all. By birth, they¡¯re weaker than your average Beastmen. They lacked the fertility and growth of Demi-humans like Goblins and Orcs. They were inept in the Magic Arts and required external assistance in order to use even the simplest of spells. To put it simply Humans were weak, weaker than anyone else. But perhaps this weakness was their one saving grace. Unlike Goblins and Orcs who would at times slaughter their own kin, or beastmen who would at times allow their children to fend for themselves, Humans were much closer in nature perhaps to their own helplessness. Humans possessed neither the Demons pride nor the Elf''s longevity. They possessed not the passions of the Dwarves that could allow them to ignore all else in pursuit of their craft or the wickedness of the Dragons who stood above all others. Humans, perhaps alone they were weak, but together they formed a strength that could rival even the mighty Demon Empire that at a time sought to conquer the entire world. But because Humans are weak, they sought the land of another. They sought to reach even greater heights. And in their greed Humans forgot their weakness and ventured towards the Demon Empire, the result¡­ Complete annihilation. The Humans who sailed across the open seas with sword and shield in arm, banner held high, and spears at the ready marched through one of the province of Lux under the command of a Hero from afar leaving death and destruction in their wake. Countless Demons were slaughtered in the name of justice for this was but a Holy Crusade. ¡°Death to the Demons! Death to the Sinners! Death to the Heretics!¡±, they¡¯d shout with bloody sword in hand. They¡¯d cheer as they went through village after village, looting, pillaging, raping, killing. But as they marched onwards to the next province, in a single battle the army of crusaders was completely and entirely eliminated leaving only a half-dead hero, and several thousand crusaders running for their lives. ¡­ Here in the province of Gul, located in the northern region of the Demon Empire and to the east of the province of Lux, were several knights clad in a silver plated armor and a red cape with a white sun embroidered on the back. And as several howls were ushered behind them, the Knights turned their heads and began running frantically. But it was useless, their silver armor and bright red capes they were so proud of weighed them down significantly making it difficult to run, and amidst the trees and fauna they stuck out like sore thumbs. Several black furred werewolves shot out from behind and pounced on one of the knights. The werewolves that should have only been out in the night of the full moon, and should have feared the silver coating on their armor ignored the armors adverse effects and fearlessly ripped apart the knight''s armor with its bare hands. The knight now armorless, and being restrained by several werewolves far larger than himself screamed in fright. His right arm tightly holding on to his swords shone with a white light, but as soon as the werewolves saw this the werewolf pinning his arm down immediately ripped it off, but before munching on it. The knight let out a blood-curdling scream as his arm was ripped off, and began maniacally cursing at the werewolves amidst his screams. The werewolves however merely laughed, and slowly began tearing him apart, causing screams to fill the forests. All the knight could do was pray that one of his fellow knights would come and save him, to end his misery, but this was merely wishful thinking. His compatriots had long since left, they didn¡¯t have the luxury to turn around and help him nor did they ever intend to do so. The companionship they shared, the oaths they swore, they were all meaningless in the face of death. Yet almost as if God was answering his prayers, a silver light flashed by and the severed heads of the werewolves fell to the ground. The dying knight slowly turned his head and saw a young woman with blonde hair in a tied into a ponytail, and blue eyes in a similar silver armor covered in wounds. He stared at the woman and smiled, ¡°Captain...may the never-ending light of God bless you¡± And with those words, the knight''s eyes grew clouded, and he closed his eyes one last time.The female knight clenched her fists and continued running through the forest. She was gravely wounded, her armor was had been cut open by a werewolf just earlier, and she was constantly using spells to keep her wound from bleeding. But she couldn¡¯t last much longer, she quickly surveyed the surroundings and noticed a small cave. She quickly dashed towards the cave and cast a spell with the wave of her sword removing the footprints and the stench of blood. She entered the cave and quickly moved a large rock to the cave''s entrance blocking it off allowing her to momentarily breathe a sigh of relief. But time was of the essence, she slowly made her way deeper into the cave, using the light emitting from her sword to light the way before finally finding a place to rest deeper into the cave. She stuck her sword into the wall and began removing her silver armor and red cape that was in tatters. She removed her bloodied black undershirt, revealing her bountiful chest. Even with all her scars, and wounds, the female knight was still quite the beauty to behold. If you come across this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it. She was covered in dust and blood, but her fair skin free from any blemish would make any woman jealous. Seeing her well-toned body and ample chest that were hidden by her silver armor was a treat, and if it weren¡¯t for her sheer strength that caused even trained soldiers to falter then maybe she would have already been wed. It¡¯s a shame that any such suitors were by now long since dead. Though to this female knight, that was none of her concern. She cast a spell and detected no Demons in the vicinity so she placed all her focus into healing the lacerations that dotted her body, and the large wound left by the werewolves claws. But perhaps because it wasn¡¯t a Demons, or perhaps because she was simply in a rush, the female knight did not notice the movement of a red tentacle that was slowly creeping its way through the rocks. And before she even noticed several dozen red tentacles had surrounded her. These tentacles were nearly noodle shaped and covered in a viscous slime, and they gathered just outside of the light emitting from the female knight''s sword. Suddenly, the female knight opened her eyes and grabbed her sword swinging it outwards striking the air. Although she couldn¡¯t detect the tentacles with magic, nor did she see them, she knew something was there. She kneeled down and grabbed a piece of her armor, it was too late to put it back on. She could only use a piece of it as a shield at this point, but it was better than nothing. The female knight laughed wearily, ¡°They were right when you¡¯re in a dark alley always wear protection.¡± The female laughed at her own blunder, not realizing the true meaning of the senior knight''s words. The female knight took a deep breath and cast a spell causing the light emitting from her sword to illuminate the entire cave. The tentacles being visible, she struck out her sword and hit one of the tentacles. But to her surprised as soon as the sword made contact with the tentacle it merely slid off. She clicked her tongue, these type of monsters could only be killed using magic. Primarily the Crusaders would use either their holy light, or fire magic to kill such monsters, but if the monster were afraid of holy light it would have run away as soon as it became visible. And she was currently in a cave, using fire magic would basically be a death sentence. ¡°For the never ending light of God huh¡­¡± The female knight closed her eyes, before opening them resolutely. She brandished her sword, intent on fighting to her very last breath. And as if waiting for this moment, all the tentacles lunged forward from around her. The female knight ignored the wounds in her body and even stopped the magic that was clotting her bleeding, instead, she poured all her mana into her arms and legs. She swung her sword left and right, futilely striking the tentacles before sliding off. But it was enough to keep a few of these tentacles at bay. As for the other tentacles, the female knight danced through the cave, jumping, crouching, kicking off the wall, or the ceiling doing her best to keep herself from being caught. But in doing so her wounds that she did her best to heal began opening, and the cave began to be covered in more and more blood. The light of her sword slowly began fading, and with the blood loss and the dimming of the light, it became too difficult to make out the tentacles anymore. Soon enough several tentacles were wrapped around her arms and legs restraining her. The female knight sighed and closed her eyes awaiting the miserable death of being ripped apart from all four limbs. But instead, she shrieked as the tentacles suddenly started crawling down her arm, looping around her shoulders, and finally around her ample chest. Her body became slowly coated in the tentacles viscous slime causing her to grow hotter and hotter despite the tentacles cool touch. The tentacles began squeezing her ample chest and caressing her mountain peaks causing her to release a sudden moan. ¡°W-What is going on here?¡± Due to her military education, this female knight was ignorant to the workings of a woman and a man, and she was even more ignorant about the true nature of monsters like these. But as the tentacles began crawling up her leg in a similar fashion, she shrieked and began struggling once more. But as she struggled the tentacles continued to fondle her ample breasts, and mountainous peaks causing her to lose what little strength she had left in her body. The tentacles rose into the air and began stroking the knight''s most private of parts causing her to once again release an unintentional moan. Finally realizing what was going on her face grew beet red, and as she was about to say something the tentacle pierced through her body causing her to shriek in pain. And in a moment everything seemed to grow white, and suddenly standing before her was another woman. She had beautiful golden hair that fell to her waist, and bright blue eyes that shined in the light. She two exquisite peaks on her chest and her skin was quite fair. As the female knight stared at the naked woman before her, she gasped in shock as she realized the one standing before her was herself. The woman before her smiled seductively and said, ¡°Finally, I have established a connection!¡± Chapter 2: From Within The naked woman smiled, and bowed gracefully causing her beautiful golden hair to fall downwards, ¡°Greetings Human, my name is ??????¡± The female knight stared at the woman in front of her confused, she shook her head, and cleaned her ears with her pinky and asked, ¡°Can you repeat that?¡± The naked woman smiled, ¡°I am ??????¡± ¡°I see...¡±, the female knight smiled wearily, whenever the woman in front of her would say her name her words would suddenly grow inaudible and instead were replaced by several inharmonious noises that sounded like the combination of several cries and shrieks, as well as the grating sound of metal against metal. Yet despite all this surprisingly it wasn¡¯t jarring in the least, and even though she could make heads or tails of the woman''s name whenever she would say her name it was remarkably pleasing to hear. But this posed quite a problem for the female knight, she still had no clue who this woman before her was, nor did she know where she was. She closed her eyes, and thought about it for a moment, and asked, ¡°Is this perhaps...the afterlife?¡± ¡°Nope¡± ¡°A dream?¡± ¡°Unlikely¡± ¡°A spell?¡± The naked woman laughed, ¡°You¡¯re close, but not quite there.¡± The female knight sighed, ¡°Then just where are we? What¡¯s going on here, and- hii!¡± The female knight covered her mouth after involuntarily releasing a shriek. She hurriedly looked around, and then noticed that the wounds on her body had disappeared. It was as if they were never there, to begin with. Yet her body still felt extraordinarily hot, but it wasn¡¯t due to being seen naked, she had no qualms with that. But an indescribable heat filled her chest, and she gradually felt as if something were directly draining her strength causing her to fall to her knees. The naked woman in front of her watched this and merely smiled, she took several steps forward and said, ¡°I suppose I should apologize, it seems your body''s not used to the energy just yet. And perhaps I was a bit too forceful.¡± The female knight raised her head to look at the naked woman in front of her, but as she was going to say something a pleasant moan escaped her lips as the heat began to pervade the rest of her body. The naked woman now standing in front of her kneeled down, cupping the female knight''s breasts in her hands, ¡°Let me provide some assistance¡± ¡°What do you¡­¡± The suddenly began fondling the female knight''s breast, licking her sharp peaks over and over again causing the knight to feel the woman¡¯s cool saliva coat her burning chest. The naked woman moved her hands without restraint as she pulled the females knights breast, twisted them, bit them, licked them, and squeezed them with all her might. ¡°Haa.. haa¡± The female knight breathed heavily, she wanted to say something, she wanted to tell this woman to stop, but the pleasant sensation produced by her cool hands and tongue at times carefully caressing her breast and at times roughly playing with them had caused her to continue losing her strength. The naked woman smiled, as she bit onto one of the knights beautiful peaks, her arms slowly lowering down to the Knights lower regions that had grown rather moist over the last few minutes. The female knight turned to her in shock, and asked, ¡°W-What are you¡­¡± But then suddenly, her question was interrupted by a deep kiss. The naked woman extended her tongue coiling it around her female knight''s tongue and she began playing with it allowing her own saliva to mix with the knight''s. The female knight once more tried to break free, but to her surprise, she found that kiss rather pleasant. As their saliva mixed together, she slowly began to enjoy the motion and began moving her own tongue. As they separated, the female knight moved the woman''s saliva in her mouth and was surprised to find that it tasted like a sweet nectar. And as she began to relax slightly allowing the woman''s arm to fall down towards her most precious lower regions when suddenly the scenery changed once again. Everything seemed to go dark or rather everything returned to the way it was before. The female knight looked around and she noticed that she was still in the small dark cave barely illuminated by her sword stuck to the ground. She was still bound on all four limbs by these slimy tentacles, and she was still covered in wounds. Or at least, she was supposed to be covered in wounds. But as she looked around, she was surprised to find that although tentacles were wrapped around her entire body there wasn¡¯t a single wound to be seen. Not even that large wound from the werewolves remained, it was just like in that dream or perhaps it was an illusion, all her wounds had disappeared. You might be reading a stolen copy. Visit Royal Road for the authentic version. A deep voice suddenly spoke, ¡°Looks like you finally calmed down.¡± The female knight looked around, but she couldn¡¯t find the owner of the voice. She asked, ¡°Who are you, where are you?¡± The voice laughed, ¡°Why I¡¯ve already answered your first question, as for your second question¡­¡± The ground beneath the female knight began shaking, and to her surprise, the tentacle monsters body appeared, ¡°I¡¯m right here.¡± The female knight paused in shock, she hesitated for a moment, but then she asked, ¡°Don¡¯t tell me you¡¯re¡­¡± ¡°The tentacle monster?¡± She nodded her head, ¡°Slimes and tentacle monsters shouldn¡¯t have enough intelligence to be sentient.¡± The tentacle monster laughed, ¡°Well you aren¡¯t wrong, but you Humans are so quick to forget. Who do you think faced the first Demon Emperor close to 500 years ago preventing him from unifying the Demon Clans?¡± The female knight paused and recalled a tale she heard from a bard back in the Human Continent. It was a tale of the first Demon Emperor and the war he started in an attempt to conquer the world. At first, he was weak, no stronger than many Demon Kings of the Demon Continent, but soon he enlisted the help of the First of Envy, who helped him recruit the First of Greed, and then the First of Wrath of the Seven Deadly Sins the Emperors group of personally picked retainers. It was said with these three the Emperor rose from being a mere King to a true Emperor. Soon enough he recruited the Dragon Valley¡¯s Great Dragon Lord to fill the seat of Pride. And finally, it was only after recruiting the First Pride did the Demon Emperor challenge the Hegemon of the North who stopped the Demon Emperor from conquering the remaining Demon Kings. And this great Hegemon was what the world considered to be one of the weakest of species a slime. But the First of Sloth like the other members of the first generation were absolute monsters in their own right, and despite being merely a slime, the First of Sloth was impervious to nearly every form of magic, and physical attack. He was the Demon closest to being immortal, and was henceforth called the Slime God! Though of course, this was simply a tale woven by the bard, there was no way to really know the truth of the matter. But it¡¯s undeniable that there once existed an unimaginably powerful slime because the corpse of a massive slime became what is now known as the Slime Sea. And even though she was a bit hesitant to acknowledge it, there was a talking tentacle monster sitting right below her. She turned to the tentacle monster and asked, ¡°Okay, fine I¡¯ll accept that you¡¯re the one talking to me. So what do you want? To torture me? To kill me for revenge?¡± The tentacle monster laughed, ¡°Kill you for revenge? Don¡¯t be silly! If I wanted to kill you I would have done it long ago.¡± ¡°Then what do you want with me?¡± ¡°Simple, I merely wanted a companion. Someone to talk to perhaps.¡± ¡°What!? But you¡¯re¡­¡± ¡°A tentacle monster? But tentacle monsters get lonely too.¡± ¡°Then why couldn¡¯t you just talk to other Demons? Why did you have to attack me? Why did you have to rape me?¡± The tentacle monster laughed, ¡°I apologize about that, you see I intend to assist you because you were so injured, but I thought you would be afraid so I intend to merely restrain you as I healed you.¡± ¡°I never expected that you would abandon everything for the sake of fighting me, even going as far as to stop healing your own wounds and allowing the wounds you closed to open up.¡± The tentacle monster sighed, ¡°And then when I finally restrained you, you began struggling as I was healing you so I had no choice but to try and calm you down. Little did I know you were still a virgin at this age¡­¡± The female knight yelled, ¡°Excuse me I¡¯m still 22! That¡¯s still a respectable age, not everyone is so easy you know!¡± ¡°Um¡­¡±, the tentacle monster paused, ¡°I¡¯m sorry?¡± ¡°Hmph¡± ¡°Anyway, I accidentally sent you into shock after penetrating you so suddenly so I decided to enter your consciousness to try and calm you down.¡± ¡°Ah¡± suddenly everything clicked into place, that naked woman from earlier, she was the tentacle monster, ¡°But wait, why didn¡¯t you just say you were trying to help me from the beginning?¡± ¡°Ah, well you see the thing is...my species cannot communicate verbally.¡± ¡°Then what are you doing right now?¡± ¡°Well you see, we can only communicate through intercourse...it¡¯s only by connecting with a female''s womb can we communicate with another.¡± ¡°...¡± Chapter 3: Im Coming! The tentacle monster laughed, ¡°What you don¡¯t believe me?¡± ¡°Well honestly right now I don¡¯t know what to believe...¡± ¡°Kakaka, don¡¯t worry about it. There are far weird things out there than the likes of me you know.¡± The female knight turned her head and looked down at the tentacle monsters body. She didn¡¯t particularly know where to look since well, the damn thing didn¡¯t have eyes! So instead she just turned towards the tentacle''s main body since it felt awkward to speak to the tentacles caressing her breast or moving around in her lower regions. ¡°Like what?¡± ¡°Well, there are those mimics you know? They¡¯re shapeshifters but unlike most shapeshifters they take the form of inanimate objects. Sometimes they even take the form of a liquid, supposedly puddle mimics exist, and there have even been mimics who¡¯ve voluntarily taken the form of toilets!¡± ¡°...¡± ¡°And then there are even some mimics who purposely transform into food stuff like sandwiches or fruits like apples. They allow themselves to be eaten! It¡¯s like their entire race has some weird masochistic tendency!¡± ¡°They try to be eaten, try to be sat on, stepped on, opened up, kicked, tossed around. You can¡¯t tell me that a tentacle monster that can only speak through intercourse is weird! I mean I don¡¯t even have a mouth tentacly!¡± The female knight sighed, ¡°Just, can just stop?¡± The tentacle monsters arms, or rather tentacles flew into the air, ¡°You don¡¯t believe me!? Just you wait, I¡¯ll drag you over to one of those dungeons those mimics all over!¡± The female knight rolled her eyes, ¡°Ah whatever, can you just put me down or something? I want to put my clothes back on.¡± The tentacle monster paused, and then he slowly lowered the female knight down to the ground removing all but the tentacle connecting the two of them. ¡°I have a proposition I¡¯d like to offer you.¡± ¡°And you expect me to make a deal with a devil?¡± The tentacle monster laughed, ¡°Devil? I¡¯m no Devil, hell I¡¯m not even a Demon technically. I¡¯m a monster, a tentacle monster¡­¡± ¡°Is there a difference?¡± ¡°Of course! Devils are akin to the Celestials that live lofty in the sky, they¡¯re bound in their own world and only appear under certain circumstances. While Demons can refer to either the Demon Clan that take up a majority of the western portion of the Demon Continent or of those ruled by the Demon Empire¡± ¡°For example, those claw marks on your armor must have come from Werewolves. Werewolves are demi-human extremely close in resemblance to beastmen especially under the full moon, but they highly resemble your Human race while under the sun.¡± ¡°They¡¯re considered a Demi-Human tribe, but when they were subjugated by the Demon Empire they became part of the collective group called Demons. Everyone under the Demon Empire is a demon regardless of their race, we even have a decent amount of Humans running around here as well. Though they still refer to themselves as Humans for the most part, but technically they¡¯re also Demons.¡± The female knight thought about it, and then asked, ¡°Then wouldn¡¯t that make you a Demon too?¡± The tentacle monster shook his tentacles, ¡°I may live in the Demon Empire''s territory, but by definition, I¡¯d be considered a Monster, not a Demon. Monsters are those races who don¡¯t possess enough intelligence to learn the common tongue or simply refuse to participate in civil activities.¡± ¡°That includes lower tier undead, slimes, most beasts, and a handful of other races such as my own. And since I require intercourse to communicate, I¡¯d be labeled a monster instead of a Demon.¡± The female knight walked over to her sword and pulled it out of the ground, she increased the brightness and began walking over to her armor, ¡°So what''s that proposition you were talking about?¡± The tentacle monster paused, but then hesitantly spoke, ¡°Take me outside.¡± ¡°What? Can¡¯t you go out on your own?¡± The tentacle monster once again shook his tentacles, ¡°Monsters aren¡¯t treated like Demons, there¡¯s a distinct difference between us. Monsters can¡¯t be reasoned with for the most part, and Demons actively hunt monsters. If I were to go outside, I¡¯d be hunted down eventually¡­¡± ¡°Ah I see¡±, the tentacle monster in front of her was intelligent, there was no doubt about that. It possessed a great deal of strength, and it even knew how to cast magic. It was capable of conversation, but only under the condition that the two of them are connected. If it were a sentient slime, then the slime would be able to speak and the hunters would most likely stop. But if this tentacle monster were to be chased, he¡¯d have to rape one of the hunters in order to confirm his sentience. Of course, that raised problems in its own right. He¡¯d either be arrested for rape, or killed in that very instant. If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it. The more she thought about this tentacle monsters plight, the more pitiful he seemed to be. Just how many years had he stayed in this cave of his waiting to talk to someone? Tentacle monsters are immortal, they don¡¯t die of old age, so he could have very well been in here for years, or decades, or maybe even centuries¡­ The female knight sighed, ¡°But you do know I¡¯m being chased down right?¡± ¡°That¡¯s not a problem, I might not be a mimic, but my race is similar enough that I can transform into an inanimate object and do a few transformations. Watch¡± The tentacle monster moved one of his tentacles in front of her and then it started transforming. First, it turned into a certain phallic shaped object, then it grew bumps, then spikes, then a few orifices, and then it changed into a blade, a disk, and then a ball. ¡°With a bit of magic, I can transform my into an armor, without your silver armor you won¡¯t stick out as much.¡± ¡°But I¡¯m still Human you know.¡± ¡°That''s not a problem, I told you some Humans live in the Demon Continent too. Of course, some prejudice exists, but the ones they¡¯re targeting are you, crusaders. And if worst comes to worst, I can pretend to be a Demonic armor possessing you.¡± ¡°So what do you say? I can help you survive out here, and you can help me leave this dark cave of mine?¡± The female knight paused, ¡°Deal¡± ¡°Thank you, miss!¡± ¡°It¡¯s Lucia¡± ¡°Hmm?¡± ¡°Lucia Heartfel¡±, Lucia extended her hand, and the tentacle monster grabbed it and shook it. Suddenly, the tentacle monster shot up, causing her to drop the armor in her other hand. The tentacle monster almost instantly covered her entire body, and then began shrinking. The tentacle¡¯s exterior began hardening and turning into a dark gray skimpy armor. The tentacle armor was comprised of only some dark gray boots, some dark gray gauntlets, and a few pieces of dark gray metal over her breasts and bosom. It was the famed bikini armor! ¡°What is this!¡± ¡°What do you mean its armor?¡± ¡°You call this armor? It¡¯s barely covering anything!¡± ¡°I know, isn¡¯t it magnificent!¡± ¡°Change it now!¡± The tentacle monster paused, then it began moving rapidly. Though this was rather odd since the several pieces of armor weren¡¯t physically connected. Actually, it''s a mystery how this armor was able to even form. Lucia grew read as the vibrating armor began covering her breasts, and lower region in a slimy mucus that once more caused her body to grow hot once more. The vibrating tentacles still thoroughly connected to her womb, and the armor caused her to once again lose her strength and slowly fall to her knee. ¡°You bastard!¡± Lucia grabbed the dark metal plate on her breast and pulled it. However the tentacles had a strong suction on her breasts, particular on her sensitive nipples, so as she attempted to pull it off she accidentally shrieked and her face grew red. The tentacle monster laughed, but then suddenly Lucia tightened her grip on the plate and pulled it off it one motion causing a moan to escape from her lips. She threw the tentacle plate on the floor and grinned, ¡°You think you can play me!¡± The tentacle monster paused, before suddenly rotating and moving the tentacles in her womb up and down like a piston. ¡°Ha~n! Why you!¡± ¡­ Over an hour later, the fighting had finally died down. The two of them went back and forth pulling off the tentacles, hitting the tentacles, and arguing. But finally, after a full hour, the two of them came to a compromise. A majority of the armor became a skin tight bodysuit lined with tentacles similar to a swimsuit, this not only provided a little more protection but most importantly she didn¡¯t she look like an exhibitionist. Though by no means did this change how to armor felt, she absolutely felt like she was completely naked and well she might as well be. Lucia is literally wearing a living being, it¡¯s kinda of like if one exhibitionist was being hugged by another exhibitionist who painted himself to make him look like clothes. So in a sense, Lucia was naked, but in a sense wearing this armor was worse than being naked. The bodysuit was completely lined with tentacles caressing her whole body. And although she was able to reach a compromise and have the tentacle monster add some more metal plates to form a proper breastplate the armor was by no means practical. Lucia sighed, the tentacle monster refused to add any more to the armor. But it was either this or going out in her damaged crusader armor. ¡°What did I do to deserve this?¡± ¡°That¡¯s what I should be asking¡± ¡°Whatever let¡¯s head out, uh...what should I call you?¡± ¡°What I already told you my name.¡± Lucia laughed wearily, ¡°You know what I¡¯ll just call you Dewl¡± Chapter 4: Boys will be boys Lucia walked to the mouth of the cave, and quietly crouched down. Although she was almost certain that the werewolves chasing her and her comrades have made way, she couldn¡¯t risk being found out.She put her hand down on the ground, and quietly cast a spell sending waves of mana through the earth in every direction. Dewl tuned in, ¡°Oh that¡¯s quite the interesting technique you humans have developed.¡± Lucia nodded, ¡°We Humans are magically inept by nature, and although we do possess some mana it¡¯s nothing compared to Demons and all the other magical races on this continent. As a result Demons, Elves, Dwarves, and Demi-humans all take mana for granted most of them probably wouldn¡¯t even notice mana fluctuations such as these.¡± ¡°That¡¯s true, but that¡¯s not what I¡¯m talking about. Your heart, it beats irregularly.¡± ¡°...¡± Dewl laughed, ¡°Don¡¯t worry I won¡¯t pry into your matters, but you should take care of your body more.¡± Lucia remained silent, she turned back to her hands and closed her eyes focusing on the spell. Only after confirming that no Demons were within a thousand meters of her position did she finally open her eyes, and push the rock over to the side. As she walked out of the cave she was surprised to find that it was already nighttime, and the moon was already high in the sky. It appeared that she had lost track of time in the cave, it was still the middle of the day when she was fleeing earlier. Lucia turned to Dewl who was hanging off her chest, ¡°So where¡¯d do you suppose we go? I doubt there are any ships heading towards the Human Continent with how things are going¡± Dewl shook his tentacles causing the plate armor to shake awkwardly, ¡°No, from your cape you should be part of the Faith of Light.¡± Lucia nodded her head, ¡°I come from the Empire of Tijan which rules over the majority of the western part of the Human Continent. I¡¯m a part of the first wave of the coalition of the Empire of Tijan, the Kingdom of Thylania, the Kingdom of Mecik, and the Kingdom of Lumir.¡± ¡°But are there other kingdoms left in the Human Continent?¡± ¡°Um, there¡¯s the Kingdom of Vuksha to the Northernmost part of the Human Continent and the neutral Federation Darrell ruled by the Merchants Guild in the southeastern most part of the Human Continent.¡± ¡°Then Darrell¡¯s probably your best bet, so that means we need to head east towards the Province of Acedia, ruled by the Fifth of Sloth. But that means we need to pass through the Province of Gul, ruled by the Eighth of Gluttony.¡± ¡°Hmmm?¡±, Lucia paused, ¡°Wait Eighth!? What happened to the first through seventh!?¡± ¡°Well, naturally they¡¯re dead.¡± ¡°But weren¡¯t the Seven Deadly Sins, the Demon Emperor''s retainers all supposed to be really strong or something!?¡± ¡°Of course.¡± ¡°Then how did seven of these supposedly really strong retainers just up and die?¡± ¡°Diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, cancer, a failed liver, gorging themselves to death, growing so fat they couldn¡¯t even move, honestly there¡¯s a number of other reasons but you get my point don¡¯t you?¡± ¡°...¡± ¡°Oh and the other Sins face similar problems. Those who hold the title of Lust have had all sorts of STDs, those that hold the title of Wrath have been known to retire early due to stress, the first of Envy often forgot to eat because he was immersed in knowledge, the First of Greed, who is somehow still alive, pissed of nearly every race in the Demon Continent by stealing their stuff, some of the Sloths have slept to death, and Pride is too prideful to ask for help.¡± ¡°Are you Demons alright?¡± ¡°I¡¯m a monster.¡± ¡°...¡± Lucia sighed, and began walking, when suddenly her plate armor stiffened, ¡°Girl do you not know what direction east is!¡± ¡­ Lucia in her black skimpy armor shot through the forest. Dewl was actually rather light despite his size and appearance, and it was rather easy to move around in him. And even though his tentacles were constantly stimulating her body, all she had to do was cast a few spells to calm herself down. Though this didn¡¯t stop her body from reacting as her lower regions exuded a sweet smell, and were clearly most underneath her tentacle lined bodysuit. While her mountainous breasts were at this moment truly living up to their descriptions as her nipples turned into rock hard peaks! And even though she was constantly using up mana to calm her mind as she ran, she felt surprisingly refreshed and her face seemed to shine and glisten in the moonlight. Though Lucia herself refused to admit it, this armor was actually pretty nice. But as she was enjoying the feeling of the cool wind running through her hair as she joyfully ran through the forest, she heard the several fierce war cries and the sound of metal hitting metal. Lucia gasped, ¡°Crusaders?¡± This novel is published on a different platform. Support the original author by finding the official source. She instantly shot forth at breakneck speed weaving past tree after tree before she shot into the air. In a matter of seconds, she approached the nearby battle and stood atop a branch sword at the ready. As she looked down she could see a caravan of several carriages as well as several dozen knights surrounded a large group of bandits. And despite the darkness, she could make out the dozens of corpses covering the ground. There were tens of knights, but for every knight, there were at least several bandits. Yet, despite all the death the bandits were still pouring in. The bandits were mainly comprised of the short green skinned Goblins, the fat pig like Orcs, the large Ogres, a few dwarves, as well as Humans, and finally Demons. As for the Knights, they seemed to be comprised almost entirely out of women all of which were strikingly beautiful. All of these women fought fearlessly against the waves of bandits, and upon their death, they would cast a spell causing their womb to explode killing off a few nearby bandits and allow themselves from being defiled in the afterlife. But this didn¡¯t keep the bandits from playing with their corpses anyway. Even without their wombs, these women were top notch beauties, the Goblins, and Orcs would pounce on the corpses tossing aside the corpses of their own comrades and would tear apart their armor. With their dirty rods, they would play with the woman''s face, hair, breasts, armpits, and feet. Some would lick their body all over, while the Orcs and Ogres would simply choose to devour their delicate flesh. Some of the bandits would even go as far as decapitating their heads to play with them. Some kissing them, some putting them on a blade and cheering at their newly acquired acquisition causing the other knights to grow furious. However there were just too many bandits, and as one knight fell after another leaving a few Knights left it looked hopeless for them. Lucia stared at this scene and contemplated whether to intervene. As a Knight herself she felt obligated to help, but she was in the Demon Continent and these were Demons. Should she be helping out the enemy? But could she allow such vile behavior to continue? But even if she were to join in, could she do anything? There were still a number of bandits left, and there were only a few Knights left. Could she really do anything? ¡°Do you wish to save them?¡± Dewl¡¯s tentacles began protruding out of her breastplate, and he repeated, ¡°Do you wish to save them?¡± Lucia paused, but then hesitantly nodded. Dewl then said, ¡°Very well, I will assists you.¡± Dewl¡¯s tentacles suddenly lunged forward towards Lucia¡¯s face. One of the tentacles instantly forced its way into her mouth and down her throat. This tentacle began releasing a liquid that began to fill her stomach and warm her body While several other tentacles lunged forward covering her entire face. The tentacles quickly took the shape of a mask, before Dewl cast a spell to cover the exterior of the mask in a black plate. A few tentacles sprouted from this mask to the left and to the right before hardening into the shape of horns. ¡°Try talking.¡± Lucia felt dazed, the mask was extremely uncomfortable especially with a tentacle going down her throat. She was amazed she wasn¡¯t unconscious and the fact that she was even breathing, ¡°Dewl what did-¡± Lucia paused, she was surprised at her own voice. Her voice before was by no means deep, but it was nowhere as high as it was just now. She didn¡¯t know how she herself was talking, but her voice sounded extremely pleasant to the ear and quite seductive at that. ¡°Here let me augment your sword as well¡± Dewl¡¯s tentacles shot out of her gauntlet and began covering her silver sword. Her sword grew several inches longer and wider and it looked closer to a great sword than a long sword. Yet despite the size, her sword was no heavier than before, as a matter of fact, it felt lighter. She raised her sword into the air, and although it looked eerily demonic, she quite liked its new appearance. She glanced over to the battle, and she noticed that the last few knights had been pushed down, and bandits entered the carriage pulling a beautiful girl out of the carriage. She raised her sword, ignoring the tentacles rapidly moving in a positioning motion in her crotch and the intense heat all filling her entire body, she shot off the branch like a bolt of lightning landing on the ground with a boom. The earth beneath her feet cracked, and as she looked around at all the bandits staring at her in shock she couldn¡¯t help but laugh. These bandits were vulgar, but for some reason, she couldn¡¯t help but feel they weren¡¯t any more vulgar than she was. And in the next moment she herself didn¡¯t know why it was unbecoming of her and very unlike her, but she said, ¡°Hey boys you better sit the hell down and play nice, otherwise momma¡¯s gonna come around and shove this sword right up your ass!¡± Chapter 5: Or Not ¡°Hey, boys you better sit the hell down and play nice, otherwise momma¡¯s gonna come around and shove this sword right up your ass!¡± ¡°...¡± Lucia paused, she didn¡¯t know what compelled her to say those words, or why she even said them, but she was definitely beet red under that mask of hers. Though if she didn¡¯t have that mask of hers she would have realized she was beet red for a whole other reason, but that''s beyond the point. And well at this point it was really too late to turn back, she had jumped straight into the crowd and was completely surrounded by bandits to the left and to the right. There was no plan, she just jumped straight in the spur of the moment. Lucia resisted the urge to drop her sword and run away, and took up a battle stance when suddenly one of the bandits in the crowd yelled, ¡°You can¡¯t threaten me with something I want!¡± The rest of the all simultaneously turned towards the one bandit, while those who were nearby slowly backed away in disgust. That one bandit grew flustered and pointed his sword towards her, ¡°I-I mean who do you think you are! You think you can shove a sword up my ass!? I¡¯ll shove one up there myself!¡± ¡°...¡± ¡°You can shove anything up there if there¡¯s already-¡± One of the bandits behind him took his sword and smashed it into the back of his head knocking him unconscious and sighed. Lucia turned towards that bandit and gave a slight bow, ¡°Thanks¡­¡± ¡°No, it¡¯s our fault¡­¡± The air was filled with an awkward moment of silence, the bandit with the sword turned towards Lucia and asked, ¡°Can we you know, take it from the top?¡± ¡°Yeah...¡± Lucia coughed, and said, ¡°Bandits prepare to die!¡± The bandit raised his sword, ¡°Kill her!¡± Several Orcs charged forward with swords and maces in hand swinging it downwards, but with a single slash, these massive orcs far larger than your average man were sent flying knocking into several other bandits behind them. Lucia turned around and glanced at the Knights pinned to the ground. She quickly dashed over with the assistance of the armor and cut apart the bandits with her great sword. Then she turned towards the goblins holding the short woman they dragged out of the carriage and seemingly disappeared reappearing directly before them. Even though her sword grew lighter thanks to Dewl¡¯s tentacles it also grew far larger and she wasn¡¯t used to it just yet. So instead she grabbed the one of the goblins small head and slammed it directly into the ground crushing his skull. The other goblins yelped in fear and grabbed their daggers, but these puny blades couldn¡¯t hope to pierce Dewl¡¯s remarkably tough armor. And thanks to the physical augmentations she could easily crush their necks, taking their lives with her bare hands with little to no effort. Lucia turned to the girl and seeing that she was fine, release a sigh of relief. The girl turned to her and said, ¡°Um...excuse me, but I-¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll carve a path open. When I do, take your Knights and run away¡± ¡°But I-¡± Before the girl could finish, Lucia turned around and charged straight into the crowd of bandits once more with great sword in hand. Although she could only use simple swings and thrusts with the swords size and weight as well as the increase in her physical strength it was more than enough. With each swing, several heads would fly or bodies would be sent flying. And although she was surrounded, her armor was able to completely protect her and all she had to do was focus on swinging. It was almost too easy really. She never expected that wearing Dewl¡¯s tentacle armor could make her this strong. Well rather she was strong in the first place, being a Crusader Knight Captain, but compared to the likes of the Hero or the Head Commander of the Crusade she was nothing. She probably couldn¡¯t even place amongst the top 100 Knights in the army, perhaps only in the top 1000. But with Dewl on perhaps, she might even be a match for the top 10 Knights in the army. Perhaps she was even as strong as the Hero himself. But as she was casually swinging her sword and thinking about this Dewl yelled, ¡°Watch out!¡± A tentacle shot out of her armor into the air several inches away from her face grabbing onto a spear. Lucia immediately jumped back in fright. ¡°Oh? That¡¯s some armor you have their succubus.¡± A sickly pale skinned Oni with a single horn protruding out of his held the spear in his hand. He pulled the spear''s blade closer to his head and inspected it before laughing, ¡°A living armor with an autonomous defense system enough to react to my thrust and strong enough to chip magically reinforced metal. How extravagant! We really hit it, big boys.¡± He threw the spear in his hand away and grabbed a spear lying on the floor, ¡°With the money from the contract, and from selling that armor we¡¯d have more than enough to live a life of luxury for the rest of our lives and then some! Hell, with that armor maybe I¡¯ll be able to take on a position under one of the Lords!¡± If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation. ¡°But with all that said, all of you are pretty much useless at this point so do me a favor and¡­DIE!¡± The Oni swung his spear and a silver beam shot out decapitating all the nearby bandits. The rest of the bandits turned towards the oni and screamed, ¡°Y-You bastard! You betrayed us?¡± ¡°Well I wouldn¡¯t really call it betraying, I never agree to team up with you guys in the first place.¡± ¡°What about what you said earlier! If we all work together there¡¯d be more than enough to live a life of luxury for the rest of our lives!¡± ¡°Of course, of course. But you see the thing is, I¡¯m trying to go places. I¡¯m not trash like you guys who need to group up to do anything. I have a future. I could have been an adventurer or high ranking officer, or perhaps I could have married a noble''s, daughter. But do you know why I decided to be a bandit? A rogue? A mercenary? Why I decided to lower myself to the likes of you?¡± ¡°Because I want to go beyond being just another adventurer, or a soldier, or a noble. And well you see doing so can only be accomplished by no ordinary means. With all the money from finishing this contract on my own I can offer it to Lord Greed and with my skills and that armor, there¡¯s no way he wouldn¡¯t take me as a student¡± ¡°And with Lord Greed¡¯s help, there¡¯s no way I can¡¯t rise up above all those adventurers, nobles, and soldiers. Hell maybe in a century or so you might all be referring to me as Lord Greed!¡± The white skinned oni turned to Lucia, ¡°So what do you say armor? I know you possess some level sentience, you¡¯re at the very least a B Grade Living armor after all. If you abandon that girl I can take you to even further heights! And with Lord Greed¡¯s help, I might be able to turn you into an S Grade Living Armor!¡± Lucia felt Dewl stiffen and noticed her body was moving involuntarily, she quietly whispered, ¡°Dewl please! I took you out of the cave.¡± Lucia¡¯s face paled as she realized that she was no longer in control of her body. She knew Dewl had some control over her body, but she never realized he could completely take over. Dewl lowered her sword and slowly began walking forward. The oni in front of her smiled, ¡°Yes! Come to me, we can be one, we can be perfect!¡± Then suddenly, Dewl disappeared, but it wasn¡¯t like before when Lucia dashed forward with incredible speed. It was silent, it was as if Dewl simply just vanished, or rather that''s exactly what happened. The oni looked where Dewl was standing wide-eyed, and as he was just about to say something he felt something pierce him from behind. He turned around and saw Dewl standing right behind him, holding one of the bandits swords now covered in his tentacles right into his butt causing him to fall flat on the floor. The oni turned his head, and weakly asked, ¡°W-Why¡­¡± Dewl used the sword in the oni¡¯s butt to speak to him, ¡°I don¡¯t swing that way.¡± The white skinned Oni was rendered speechless, both by Dewl¡¯s remark and by having his very life drained out of him by Dewl. As for the rest of the bandits, they stared at Lucia in fear. That Oni she had just stabbed involuntarily was undoubtedly speaking the truth. He was superior to all of them combined, he could easily kill all of them and run away with the rewards. The armor in front of them was undoubtedly at the very least a B Grade Living Armor. But this woman before them had just instantly killed their strongest fighter in the most terrifying way causing them to involuntarily clench their butts. They all turned to each other and nodded, ¡°Run? Run.¡± All the remaining bandits quickly ran away, in the beginning, they were several hundred strong and could take on even a battalion of a company of knights. And with the white oni with them, there was nothing to be afraid of. But with the deaths of easily over two hundred bandits and the white oni himself, they were powerless. They could either stay and fight a futile battle and suffer the worst death imaginable like the white oni or they could run. Lucia turned towards Dewl, ¡°You know you could have said something. Also, I didn¡¯t know you could go invisible.¡± ¡°We''ve known each other for a day, there''s plenty of things you don''t know I could do.¡± ¡°Hmm, I suppose you''re right well anyways that ended rather anticlimactically.¡± Lucia turned towards the little girl by the carriages, she slowly walked over and patted her head, ¡°You should be fine now, I¡¯ll be-¡± Suddenly the little girl slapped away her hand, and screamed, ¡°What have you done!¡± ¡°Huh?¡± ¡°Who''s going to rape me now! I had it all planned out, I even spent a fortune enticing this many bandits to come assault me and get this many guards willing to destroy their wombs to ensure only I was the one getting gang raped.¡± ¡°What¡¯s going to happen now? Where¡¯s my gang rape of a lifetime! Who¡¯s gonna fuck me now!¡± Chapter 6: The Beast Within Lucia stared at the little girl before her speechlessly, she tried to clean her ears but then she remembered her face was covered completely in a tentacle mask. She kneeled down and said, ¡°Um...I¡¯m sorry?¡± ¡°Hmph,¡± the little girl puffed up her cheeks and crossed her arms cutely, ¡°Don¡¯t think a simple apology will fix this! What do you think you¡¯re doing interfering in someone''s business!¡± Lucia lowered her head, she never expected that after saving someone that they¡¯d not only be so ungrateful but they¡¯d even start scolding her. She sighed and stood up, ¡°Well I apologize, but I¡¯ll be taking my leave.¡± ¡°Oh no, you¡¯re not going anywhere¡±, the little girl raised her hand and several purple magic circles appeared on the floor. Suddenly, a number of purple tentacles shot out of the circles and grabbed her limbs and lifted her up into the air. Lucia shrieked as she tried to force the tentacles off her arm, while Dewl grew excited, ¡°To tentacle a tentacle monster! How unexpected! How exhilarating!¡± Dewl voluntarily opened up the segments of himself allowing the other tentacles to squirm their way in. These tentacles squirmed all around the armor moving towards Lucia¡¯s breast, and her crotch. Dewl¡¯s tentacles seemed grew excited at the new arrivals, and the tentacle constantly moving in her womb grew even faster and seemed to swell. The tentacles on covering her breast suddenly began squeezing her breast covering them in mucus. As for the new arrivals they began to morph, two large tentacles morphed into cup-shaped tentacles and attached themselves to Lucia¡¯s nipples and began fiercely sucking away. While another tentacle monster transformed his giving them a needle-shaped tip, these began attacking her clit causing it swell several times its original size. The little girl in front of her smiled, the tentacles before her piled up creating a tentacle stairs all the way to her. ¡°Now let¡¯s see why don¡¯t we take that mask of¡± She snapped her fingers and several tentacles went to take off the mask, and Dewl obliged. The tentacle in her stomach was dragged out of her throat caused her to feel a mix of pain yet intense pleasure allowing her to reach a long climax that sent her spasming for a few minutes. It was at this point that her lower region already soaking with a mix of her own sweet nectar and Dewl¡¯s aphrodisiac slime began to flow like a river. Her juices could no longer be contained by the skin tight bodysuit and began spraying out of the crevices of her armor like a shower which the tentacles below joyfully ate up. The little girl stared at Lucia''s face and grew surprised, ¡°I could never have imagined you¡¯d be Human. With you level of strength, I thought you¡¯d have been a Demon or another Oni. Or perhaps a female Ogre. Normally you don¡¯t see Humans wearing such erotic armor¡± Lucia spoke between her moans of intense pleasure, ¡°Ha...ha..it¡¯s not like¡­ I c-chose to wear this...ha¡± Dewl chimed in her head, ¡°You sorta did¡± ¡°You shut up, you aren¡¯t helping here¡± The little girl smiled, ¡°It¡¯s rare to find Humans as strong and as erotic as you. It¡¯ll be worth making you my pet.¡± The little girl once again snapped her fingers, and said, ¡°Take her armor off¡± The tentacles began working taking each piece of the tentacle formed pieces of armor off of her body. Yet despite all this Dewl didn¡¯t seem to resist in the very least. As a matter of fact, he seemed to rather enjoy this. The tentacles moved quickly and in a matter of seconds, all her armor was removed leaving her only in her tentacle bodysuit. This skin tight bodysuit hardly concealed much, there were slits in her body suit by her crotch and on her breasts and if there weren¡¯t already a bunch of tentacles violating her body she¡¯d have been completely exposed. The little girl leaned forward and stared at her crotch, ¡°Did you have this inside you the entire time you were fighting? Quite a naughty girl I see.¡± ¡°Ha~n, no t-that''s...haaa¡± Lucia tried to speak, but Dewl simply wouldn¡¯t allow her. He was moving faster than ever now. It seemed that since a majority of his body had been removed he felt the need to compensate by increasing the size and speed of the tentacle in her womb. The tentacle grew more phallic shaped and grew bumps of varying shapes and sizes. The tentacle was not only moving up and down like a piston but was also constantly rotating twisting her crotch. And so far the tentacle had grown so big it was nearly the size of an arm, as it moved one could even see it create protrusions slightly above her crotch through her body suit. The little girl laughed, and another magic circle appeared behind her. From this circle, a massive purplish pink tentacle with several sacks of fluid appeared. This tentacle monster had several needle-shaped tentacles, phallicallic shaped tentacles, and mouth shaped tentacles. Of these tentacles, the mouth shaped tentacle moved towards her enlarged clit, while needle tentacles began injecting the fluid from the sacks into her clit, her breasts, and her neck causing her to scream. She began convulsing and spasming uncontrollably as she screamed. If you come across this story on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it. ¡°You should thank me, few people get to have bodies like yours. It would cost them a fortune to gather enough transformatives and aphrodisiacs. And you¡¯re getting it all for free, with almost no side effects. Well except maybe one¡± Suddenly all the tentacles stopped and slowly began retreating back into their magic circles causing Lucia to fall to the ground. The little girl jumped off the tentacles as they vanished and walked forward, kneeling down. ¡°Hello Miss Knight, I didn¡¯t break you did I?¡± Suddenly, Lucia shot up, she grabbed the little girls clothes and completely ripped them off. The little girl smiled, and joyfully screamed, ¡°Kya~ oh no I¡¯m going to get raped!¡± Lucia, however, didn¡¯t reply, she stared at the little girl completely red-eyed, and pushed her down to the ground. Her clit had grown massive thanks to the tentacle monster, and it was as large as an arm. As a matter of fact, it looked far closer to a penis now than it did a clit. Similarly, her breast had transformed, before they were beautiful peaks at a perfect C, but now they swelled to the size of an E and were giant tanks dripping with milk. Though it would be incorrect to call the fluid dripping from her breast milk, it was far more viscous than milk and was closer in consistency to semen. But as Lucia like a beast in heat climbed, over the little girl¡¯s body the milk from her breast began to drip down onto her small bosom and partially onto her own clit. This cause her own clit to swell even further and caused to girls own crotch to grow sopping wet. Lucia took her massive rod and piled it straight into the little girl''s womb, which surprisingly took it in easily. As a matter of fact, it appeared that despite how young this girl appeared she was far more experienced than anyone could imagine. The little girl moaned in pleasure and began tightening her pussy almost as if to strangle Lucia¡¯s clit. This further spurred Lucia on as she began to fiercely shake her hips plunging in and out completely ravaging the girls small pussy. But this wasn¡¯t enough for the girl. A black tail with a heart shaped tip popped out of the back of her butt. This tail lowered down and began fiercely stroking Lucia¡¯s clit. ¡°Come on, come on, cum for me!¡± The little girl grinned as she turned around and stared at the beast of a woman relentlessly pounding her. But then suddenly she felt something poke her anus, and she shriek in surprise. She looked around and noticed that all her tentacle monster were gone, so what was going on? But then she looked down and realized that several tentacles were protruding from Lucia¡¯s armor. These tentacles having been spotted shot towards the little girl''s face, one into her mouth, and several towards her breasts. Dewl¡¯s tentacles shot into her mouth and began playing with her tongue, coating her mouth with a sweet aphrodisiac slime causing the girl''s body to go even hotter and her vagina to clamp down on Lucia¡¯s clit. While the tentacles on her nonexistent chest changed into cup-shaped tentacles because there was simply nothing to hold on to. Dewl decided he¡¯d do this girl a favor by assisting her in growing her breast as she had done for Lucia. ¡°This favor will be paid in full!¡± As for that tentacle that was poking the girl''s anus, having adequately lubricated the entrance it plunged straight in. This caused the girl to release an intense moan as she climaxed, somehow growing ever tighter than before and spraying her love juices all over Lucia behind her. She never expected that after all this that she¡¯d be the one being toyed with. Suddenly, she realized she was being lifted up into their air, and then Lucia plunged her all the way down as she inexplicably came. The large protrusion in her stomach caused by Lucia¡¯s massive clit expanded rapidly as the semen like fluid dripping from Lucia¡¯s breast began flowing out of her clit in a similar fashion. The girl¡¯s stomach, which amazingly had yet to rupture, grew round and massive as she was filled to the brim with this fluid appearing almost like she was pregnant. Lucia raised the girl into the air, allowing all the liquid to flow out of her womb with a big splosh as in landed on the grass. The girl exhausted from having climaxed in quick succession stared at Lucia. But then Dewl tentacles began covering Lucia¡¯s massive clit, which had grown slightly smaller. This caused her clit to expand once more to its former size, and the flame in her crotch burned ever brighter. Lucia took the girl and plunged her down into her tentacle covered crotch. The girl who had grown exhausted throughout this entire process could no longer do anything. She was too exhausted to move, and as the tentacles covering Lucia''s clit grew bumpy and began rotating she could only remain still as she was used as a meat sleeve for the rampaging Knight. Chapter 7: Good Morning? After several hours of intense mating, the rampaging Knight had long since fallen asleep, while the victim and mastermind behind Lucia¡¯s sudden outburst was left sprawled on the floor covered in gallons of semen like fluid. She used the last of her strength to crawl over to a dry patch of grass before similarly collapsing. They slept peacefully where they were in the forest dotted with corpses and filled with the stench of this semen like fluid which somehow managed to overpower the stench of blood that filled the air. And it was by some miracle that in the midst of all this no man, beast, or demon managed to find their way to them. No, perhaps it was no mere coincidence that this happened¡­ After sleeping for over eight hours, Dewl finally awoke. He had exhausted himself completely today transforming into armor, enhancing Lucia¡¯s physical strength, reinforcing her sword, and having partaken in intense tentacle play so he decided to take some time and rest. But as he began stretching his tentacles, and was about to tease Lucia a bit more suddenly he froze. Dewl turned around and stared at the crescent moon brightly shining in the pitch black starless. Suddenly, he shot towards Lucia at breakneck speed instantly transforming into a lewd suit of armor. His tentacles shot out of the armor and began slapping Lucia awake, ¡°Get up girl!¡± Lucia woke up and looked at the tentacles smacking her in the face, and then as she slowly began to awake she began to remember yesterday''s events. Lucia instantly grew red, and her eyes blazed with anger. ¡°You traitor!¡± But then unexpectedly the witty reply she expected never occurred, instead, she felt her body suddenly stand upright and shoot towards the girl on the floor. Lucia picked the girl up and instantly began running towards the East at an incredible speed without saying a single word. ¡°Hey! Give me back my body!¡± Lucia began to resist Dewl¡¯s control slowing the two of them down and causing Lucia to trip every now and then. Dewl begrudgingly replied, ¡°Fine, but keep running you damn girl!¡± Dewl immediately relinquished control, and Lucia began running to the east as well. But as she ran to her surprised she noticed other than the tentacle that was deep in her womb that Dewl used to communicate with her, all the other tentacles were surprisingly keeping to themselves. It seemed as if all of Dewl¡¯s strength was focused on allowing her to run. Surprised at this matter, Lucia asked, ¡°Dewl what¡¯s going on?¡± ¡°It¡¯s still night¡­¡± Lucia turned her head up to the sky, and nodded, ¡°Yeah so what?¡± Dewl grew agitated, ¡°Have some common sense woman! Do you know how long it¡¯s been? If we take into account the time you spent in the cave, the time you spent in the forest, the time you spent mating, and the time you¡¯ve spent sleeping it would total no less than sixteen hours!¡± ¡°Okay?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t you get it? The sun should have come up long ago!¡± ¡°But isn¡¯t this the way the Demon Continent normally is?¡± Dewl grew even more agitated and began cursing, ¡°No you imbecile! Do you know anything!? Of course, you don¡¯t know anything. What did I expect from you Humans! Ignorant! Naive! You fools!¡± ¡°What?¡± ¡°It¡¯s the near the eve of summer, the end of spring. Sure geographical position can affect the length of night and day, but do you think we¡¯re in the extremities of north and south!¡± Lucia scratched the back of her head, ¡°But when we entered the Demon Continent it was always so dark¡± Lucia recalled the Province of Lux the Crusader army entered in. There was fog and mist everywhere. And although there were moments where the sun shone brightly, and one could truly see the splendor of spring, compared to the Human Continent the Province of Lux looked incredibly bleak. ¡°Gah! That¡¯s because all those bastards in the Province of Lux are nocturnal! They¡¯re the Province of Eternal Night! They release a magical fog and mist constantly to allow their citizens to go out regardless of the time of day.¡± ¡°The Demon Continent is no different from the Human Continent or the Continent of Beastmen or anywhere in this godforsaken world!¡± ¡°Then what¡¯s going on?¡± Dewl paused, and his voice grew serious and stern, ¡°There¡¯s perhaps only one thing that could drastically affect the Demon Continents sky like this. And that is¡­¡± Suddenly, the earth shook violently and a mountain in the distance was seemingly lifted into the air and thrown towards the forest causing tons of dirt and stone to fly through the air. The mountain that landed in the forest easily crushed hundreds of trees and left a massive crater in the earth. Lucia gasped as she cast a barrier to defend herself from being knocked into the air by the shockwave. ¡°Walpurgis Night, the Supreme Technique created by the first Demon Emperor!¡± Once more a mountain was seemingly lifted in the distance, but this time instead of being thrown several dots flew towards it and the mountain exploded as massive white waves easily cut through it slicing straight into the ground. But as Lucia and Dewl stared at these brilliant waves, she instantly grew pale as several dozen smaller waves were slicing their way through the forest and were rapidly heading their way. ¡°God damn it!¡± Dewl¡¯s tentacles shot out and instantly covered Lucia¡¯s entire body in tentacles. Lucia felt an immense burst of strength and used this to jump out of the waves path. ¡°It¡¯s too late now, I should have noticed earlier that Walpurgis Night was cast! No wonder there were no beast in sight. They all ran away as soon as Walpurgis Night was cast! We need to hide, and pray none of those massive attacks make our way ove-¡± Suddenly the hill beside the two of them exploded as a Human shaped figure collided into it at leaving several sonic booms behind it. Lucia and Dewl froze and stared at the crater as a figure walked out. The man who walked out looked like a middle aged man with a head full of gray hair. Two broken black horns protruded out of the side of his head slightly above his ears pointing backwards. And all of his armor and clothes were mostly torn or ripped revealing his body full of wounds and lacerations as well as older scars. In his hands was a terrifying black sword with an eye in the middle. This sword was soaked in black blood, and despite being chipped at several points, looked incredibly sharp. And as Lucia stared at this old Demon her face grew completely pale, as if all the blood was flushed out of her face. She began to recall a scene that occurred not too long ago. The scene of a brilliant army marching in silver armor with banner high in the air. They marched proudly lead by some of Humanity''s greatest warriors, and Humanity¡¯s Hero at the forefront. Then upon seeing an army of Demons filled with werewolves, goblins, Orcs, Ogres, Oni, Imps, Demons, lizardmen, dwarves, dark elves, witches, and a number of abominations they began to charge towards their enemy as their swords shone brightly in the sun. But as their army approached the army of Demons merely stood still, and from the crowd of hideous monsters, a single Demon walked forward with a black sword in hand. He wore a simple light armor, but it looked exquisitely crafted and quite elegant contrary to the ugly twitching sword with an eye and veins in his hands. This gray haired Demon with broken horns grinned, and casually swung his sword through the air, and something completely unexpected occurred. It was something Lucia would probably never forget in her life, or rather it was something already burned into her eyes and engraved into her heart. Unauthorized use of content: if you find this story on Amazon, report the violation. The proud Knights bravely charging forwards to slay the heretics, the monsters were instantly decapitated. The entire Vanguard was annihilated in a single instant, and suddenly ten thousand corpses littered the battlefield. And now this Demon, no this monster stood before her once more. Lucia dropped the girl in her hands and gripped her sword tightly. She charged forward screaming, ¡°DIE!¡± But before she realized it this familiar Demon had already appeared in front of her, one hand clasping her face and the other was slowly raised in over his own face grinning, ssshhhh Suddenly, the three of them, or rather the four of them as Dewl used his tentacles to grab onto the girl she had dropped disappeared, reappearing in a cave somewhere. The gray haired Demon threw her onto the ground and said, ¡°I never expected you¡¯d be here, but I suppose that saves me a little time.¡± Lucia turned towards this gray haired Demon and asked, ¡°What do you want with me?¡± The gray haired Demon grew wide eyed upon hearing her voice, and then Dewl immediately retracted his armor returning it to its much lewder form. Dewl turned towards the gray haired Demon, ¡°What do you want Greed.¡± Suddenly Greed broke out laughing, ¡°You didn¡¯t completely possess her? What a softie! Kahahahaha!¡± Lucia turned her head towards Dewl, and then back to Greed, ¡°Wait a minute you can hear him! I thought the only way he could communicate with someone is if he were to have intercourse with them. Don¡¯t tell me you¡­¡± Upon hearing this Greed began laughing hysterically, ¡°Pffft, is that what he told you? What sort of bullshit excuse is that! Kahahaha¡± Lucia turned towards Dewl and glared, ¡°Dewl¡­¡± ¡°No, no I swear I need to be inside you to talk to you! I swear!¡± ¡°Then explain this¡­¡± ¡°Ah well...it¡¯s complicated you see. He is...well, to put it simply-¡± Greed butted in, ¡°I¡¯m the one who stole his voice.¡± Lucia turned towards Greed, ¡°Excuse me?¡¯ ¡°I¡¯m the one who stole his voice, so it''s perfectly natural that I can hear him.¡± ¡°...¡± Dewl sighed, ¡°Anyway Greed, what the hell is going on here? Why has Walpurgis Night been activated? No one should be able to use that, especially without the express authority of the Seven Deadly Sins. And it doesn¡¯t exactly look like you¡¯re the one who activated now does it.¡± Greed laughed, ¡°Yeah, it¡¯s a bit complicated. Never expected that our trump card would be turned against us right?¡± ¡°That¡¯s not the only thing, the activation method should have long since been lost after the second Demon Emperor''s death. And even then it''s a technique only the Demon Emperor''s bloodline could use, and there¡¯s no reason for the Demon Empire to get rid of you just yet.¡± Greed laughed again, ¡°Well I did say it was complicated, and besides it¡¯s not like this Walpurgis Night is complete. I¡¯m sure you saw it, but the stars are missing, and the moon isn¡¯t full. Unless the bastard can somehow assemble two more Sins to fill the requirements he¡¯ll never be able to complete Walpurgis Night.¡± Dewl paused, ¡°Greed just who are you fighting¡­¡± ¡°The next Demon Emperor I suppose. Anyway, where are ya headed?¡± ¡°The Province of Acedia.¡± ¡°Hmm, it¡¯s best you don¡¯t go there, soon enough Acedia will be reduced to nothing more than a battlefield.¡± ¡°What? What do you mean?¡± Greed opened up a hole in space and pulled out a scroll, ¡°Take this and head towards the Capital City.¡± ¡°Are you kidding me? Why would I head to such a dangerous place! I¡¯m sure you¡¯ve realized this but this girl is a crusader! I¡¯m going to take her back to the Human Continent¡± ¡°Yeah, that would probably work too, but...at this point, you don¡¯t have a choice.¡± ¡°!?¡± Dewl immediately turned towards the scroll in Lucia¡¯s hand, ¡°NO! Lucia throw it awa-¡± Suddenly, the scroll in Lucia¡¯s hand shone brightly engulfing the Lucia, Dewl, and the girl in Dewl¡¯s tentacle in light before they disappeared. Greed smiled bitterly as he saw the three of them disappear. Then the roof above his head was suddenly lifted up, revealing a mountain under a pitch black sky. Greed turned around and stared at the woman in a pure white dress lifting the mountain above him with one hand, ¡°As freakishly strong as always Wrath.¡± Suddenly, Greed felt the floor under him shift and the cave suddenly grew teeth and rapidly closed to swallow him. Greed disappeared once more reappearing over the forest, staring down at the cave munching away at the mountain overhead. Greed turned his head and looked at looked at a man in a black cloak standing atop a Dragon that dwarfed the mountain that Wrath was holding up, though of course, the mountain was far smaller than before as it was being chewed up by Gluttony down there. ¡°How nice of you to wait for me to finish my business.¡± The Demon atop the dragon laughed, ¡°It¡¯s the least I can do for an old friend.¡± ¡°Old friends don¡¯t go around turning the corpses of their friends into puppets to kill their living friends.¡± The Demon caressed his chin, ¡°I suppose so, so why don¡¯t we stop playing around Greed. Give me the sword ¡± ¡°No¡± ¡°Give me the sword¡± ¡°No¡± ¡°Give me the sword, or I¡¯ll kill you¡± ¡°You¡¯re planning on killing me, either way, aren¡¯t you?¡± ¡°What!?¡± The Demon started waving his hands, ¡°Me? No way?¡± ¡°...¡± ¡°You could at the very least play along¡± ¡°I¡¯ve been playing along with you for the past,¡± Greed turned around and asked a Demon who was reading a book under the shade of a tree, ¡°How long has it been?¡± ¡°13 hours¡± ¡°For the past thirteen hours!¡± ¡°Well that¡¯s not my fault, you could just sit still and die for me. All this running around is just a futile attempt at extending your life. You can¡¯t change fate Greed, and I¡¯m sure no one understands that fact more than you.¡± Greed paused, ¡°You¡¯re right.¡± ¡°See now we¡¯re getting somewhere. No just come here, give me your sword, and let me kill you. And we can all go home, except for you, and rest.¡± Greed looked up to the pitch black sky, and said, ¡°But just because you¡¯re right, doesn¡¯t mean you¡¯re not wrong.¡± ¡°No that¡¯s exactly what it means.¡± ¡°You might think all this running around is futile¡± The Demon on the dragon turned to the woman who was holding up the mountain, ¡°Is he ignoring me?¡± ¡°But just you wait and see.¡± ¡°He¡¯s ignoring me isn¡¯t he¡­¡± ¡°I may have lost this battle, but I¡¯ll be damned if I lose this war!¡± ¡°You know what, killing you now.¡± The Demon raised his hand and a black sword appeared in his hand, while the Dragon beneath him spewed a massive ball of fire towards greed. The Demon reading the book beneath the tree looked up, and several hundred chains shot out of the ground, while Wrath threw the mountain in her hand. As for gluttony, he transformed into a giant Hydra, and all eight of his giant heads shot towards Greed. Greed grinned and tore open a hole in space pulling out a golden sword he held in his other hand. ¡°Come!¡± Chapter 8: :D In the southern region of the Demon Empire lay a province covered in frost and snow. It was a barren land where hardly and crops could grow, and vegetation was extremely scarce. Yet despite all this, there was a small patch of green in this barren wasteland that was just teeming with life like an oasis in the desert. It was a forest full of beautiful trees and flowers with animals you¡¯d never expect to see in a region as inhospitable as this. There were countless fruits hanging from the treetops, and their scent filling the air causing beast from the outside to gather around the forest. Yet not a single beast choose to wander into this forest. And in the center of this forest lay a humble two story house main constructed out of wood and stone. And in front of this house stood a beautiful woman, her hair a light green like the dress she wore. Her skin was fair and without blemishes, and on her back were four faint translucent wings. She stood there silently looking into the distance when suddenly, the space directly in front of her tore open and two figures fell through the hole. The first was an exotic black knight clad in a revealing skin tight body suit and black armor, and a short girl with long golden hair that surprisingly began to short on its own. The black knight groaned in pain as she slowly stood up after being slammed into the ground from the teleportation scroll she had just used. Suddenly her armor began cursing out loud, ¡°God damn it that bastard! I¡¯ll kill him the next time I see him, I swear!¡± The green haired girl responded, ¡°That won¡¯t be necessary.¡± The tentacle armor paused, ¡°You can hear me?¡± ¡°Of course¡± ¡°But that¡¯s impossible! Unless¡­¡± Dewl suddenly undid his transformation turning Lucia¡¯s entire set of armor into tentacles, before dropping the floor with a splosh. He turned to Lucia and began tried to speak, but no words came out of his mouth. He then turned to the woman and asked, ¡°How can you hear me, only Greed should be able to hear me.¡± Dewl shot back up, inserting himself into Lucia¡¯s womb causing her to go red and release a slight moan as he reformed into a body suit and suit of armor. The green haired girl smiled, ¡°You¡¯re ?????? I presume¡± Dewl paused and then shook Lucia¡¯s breast to signify he was nodding. The girl continued, ¡°I am Aila Avaritia, but you can call me Greed.¡± Dewl paused, ¡°You¡¯re the Second Greed?¡± The green haired girl nodded, so Dewl asked, ¡°Then do you perhaps have my voice.¡± ¡°No, and neither does the First.¡± ¡°Then where is it, Greed¡¯s the type of person that likes to keep all his treasures in his pocket dimension.¡± The girl laughed, ¡°Indeed, but you see there are a few exceptions.¡± Aila raised her hand, and a tore open space beside her and pulled out a severed arm, ¡°This should be proof enough, after all, there are only two in the world like it¡± Dewl sighed, ¡°You know you could have taken out something else¡­¡± ¡°But there are few things in the world as valuable as this arm, after all, it is the left hand of the First Wrath the right hand of the Demon Emperor.¡± Lucia turned towards Dewl and asked, ¡°Is that a sick joke?¡± ¡°Well the person in question was fine with it, so there¡¯s no problem I suppose. And besides, Ira was a righty.¡± ¡°Anyway, you still haven¡¯t answered any of my questions. Where¡¯s my voice? What does Greed want from me? How can you hear me?¡± ¡°Your voice should be somewhere traveling the world right about now, but I doubt it¡¯s in the Demon Empire. It was in the Human Continent last I checked. As for what Greed wants from you, well you can read this letter later.¡± Aila tore open space again and threw a red envelope towards Lucia. And as soon as she caught the letter, a tentacle shot out from between her breasts and grabbed the letter dragging it into the armor. Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings. ¡°Now as for how I can hear you, well it¡¯s simple really. I¡¯m a fairy.¡± ¡°What!?¡± Aila giggled slightly, and the translucent wings on her back expanded in size and she began flying around in the air gracefully. Lucia watched Greed¡¯s beautiful performance in the air and applauded her, ¡°I didn¡¯t realize fairies were this big.¡± ¡°They aren¡¯t¡­¡± ¡°They aren¡¯t?¡± ¡°Yes, I wouldn¡¯t really call her a fairy either really because she¡¯s a living-¡± Aila interrupted Dewl, ¡°A living taboo, by the laws of the Fairy Queen, Titania, fairy blood should never mix the blood of outsiders.¡± Dewl nodded, ¡°Halfling aren¡¯t that rare, especially in the Beastman Continent and the Demon Continent where there are countless races. Even some races that don¡¯t get along that well sometimes intermingle together. But Fairies are different because Fairies are a type of Spirit.¡± Aila nodded, ¡°And spirits are beings that are given birth to by the very world, and in a way, they are connected to the world itself. This gives makes Fairies completely different from most any other races. This goes from their very nature which is decided at birth, to the way Fairies give birth. And for a fairy couple to give birth they must seek an audience with the Fairy Queen to ask for assistance from the world to give birth to a child.¡± ¡°And that¡¯s why halflings are so taboo, the world would never approve of the intermingling of a Spirit and a Mortal being. And the process of a halfling being born not only kills the mother, but it defiles her very being turning her into a monstrosity. And the thing that is given birth to becomes something that the world itself rejects.¡± Lucia paused, and her face grew pale as she looked at Aila. Dewl commented, ¡°Throughout history there have only ever been a few cases of a fairy halfling ever being born, and well all cases have ended tragically one way or another. Mana deprivation, collapse of all mental facilities, a down pour of natural disasters, and in some cases the Fairy Queen herself would come to eliminate these taboos. So far no fairy halfling has lived past the age of ten. Well I suppose until now¡± Lucia turned towards Aila, and in turn, Aila waved her hand joyfully. Dewl sighed, ¡°Only that fool is mad enough to raise a monster like you¡± Aila laughed, ¡°Of course.¡± Dewl turned towards Lucia, ¡°We should get going before it gets too late.¡± Lucia turned towards Aila and then Dewl, ¡°Where to?¡± ¡°Well, you heard the man, the capital. We can¡¯t head to the East because that¡¯s the Dragon Lord¡¯s Valley, and we can¡¯t head straight north either because we¡¯d have to cross the Great Lake. And it¡¯s probably impossible to head any further South from here, so all we can do is head west.¡± ¡°Though honestly I hate going along with his schemes, but my intuition tells me we really have no choice in the matter.¡± Lucia nodded, ¡°Ah good bye, Miss Aila.¡± ¡°There¡¯s no need to say goodbye just yet girl.¡± ¡°Hmmm?¡± ¡°Well, naturally you¡¯ll be accompanying me to the capital. Why else would by Lord send you here?¡± Dewl sighed once again, ¡°Fine! Whatever let¡¯s just go!¡± Lucia turned around and began walking, when suddenly she realized something, ¡°Wait a minute¡­¡± She then pulled the armor covering her crotch off and suddenly her massive clit shot out. ¡°$#@%$^&@$!%#w@&(!$!?¡± Dewl laughed, ¡°Oh yeah I forgot¡± Dewl¡¯s tentacles shot out of the armor to the girl lying down on the floor, his tentacles crawling up her skirt before stiffening. Dewl paused, and then screamed at the top of his lungs, ¡°IT''S A TRAP!¡± Chapter 9: The Journey to a Thousand Wives Starts With A Single Trap In the middle of a snow storm, there were three women walking side by side, each a beauty in their own right. There was the tall mature beauty of the green haired fairy halfling who gracefully flew slightly above the ground not allowing her feet to touch the snow. The charm of the little golden haired girl in her torn up dress. And the exotic beauty of the seductive female knight in her revealing armor. And perhaps no one could ever fathom the sort of conversation these three were having in the translucent golden sphere that surrounded them isolating any wind and sound. ¡°Come on, Ms. Knight. Fuck me.¡± ¡°No.¡± ¡°I¡¯m sorry for what I did earlier, but didn¡¯t you enjoy yourself?¡± ¡°No!¡± ¡°Come on, you know you want it.¡± ¡°No.¡± ¡°Just take your massive clit¡­¡± ¡°No¡± ¡°And stick it in my ass¡± ¡°No.¡± The little girl inched closer and caressed the female Knight¡¯s thighs, and as a sweet smell began to permeate the air the little girl whispered words that Lucia could just barely make out, ¡°Pretty please~¡± Suddenly, a flame seemed to burn in Lucia lower region as she felt her royal member suddenly rise from its deep sleep and shoot upwards clearly visible through her body suit. Her giant clits sudden rise brought about a great deal of friction between the countless tiny feelers lining her body suit causing her to reluctantly secrete a thick semen like fluid from her giant rod and breasts. Thankfully Dewl had grown used to these sort of interactions between these two over the past few days and had long since redesigned the suit to be more absorbent so the sudden downpour of fluids was in no ways a problem. And thanks to the armors construct Dewl was able to assist Lucia in walking amidst her climax. Upon seeing this the little girl giggled, and immediately separated herself from Lucia, ¡°About to sensitive aren¡¯t we?¡± Lucia immediately began casting a spell to return her clarity of mind and glared at the little girl, ¡°And whose fault do you think that is!?¡± The little girl giggled, ¡°If anything you should thank me, those transformatives would have normally cost you a fortune after all. And not only that their effects are permanent, unlike the inferior products most others purchase!¡± ¡°And that¡¯s supposed to make me happy!?¡± ¡°Yes!¡± Lucia sighed, and ignored the little girl beside her. Seeing this the little girl puffed up her cheeks, and said, ¡°So how about you Mr. Tentacle Monster? What do you say? Do you wanna stick it in my ass?¡± ¡°...¡± ¡°Come on Mr. Tentacle Monster, you know we Succubi are Dream Demons, there¡¯s no point in pretending I can¡¯t hear you. I have formed contracts with several other tentacle monsters though, but I must say you are by far one of the most intelligent, and sexy if I might add, I¡¯ve ever seen.¡± ¡°You Succubi never change, I can¡¯t believe I fucked a dude...¡± ¡°Well technically we Succubi don¡¯t have genders, we¡¯re all Bisexual and can fulfill the role of either sex. After all, we are Dream Demons.¡± The narrative has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident. ¡°No, no, you don¡¯t understand. I. Fucked. A. Dude.¡± ¡°And there¡¯s something wrong with that? Men do it all the time, especially with boys my age¡± ¡°I. FUCKED. A. DUDE!¡± ¡°It¡¯s not the sex that matters, it¡¯s how good the sex is that counts! By the way, Ms. Knight I can only give you a B-, you have the size, you have the stamina, but I didn¡¯t feel any passion, no love, and your technique could use some work.¡± Dewl screamed, ¡°I¡¯VE BEEN DEFILED!¡± The little girl puffed up her cheeks, and suddenly her hair shortened to shoulder length, she ran in front of Lucia and then the curtains were finally unveiled. The great valley whose soil countless men have worked tireless plowing to allow the great rivers to flow had to put it simply vanished. Or perhaps it would be more accurate to say that that valley was never there, to begin with. What those men had so tirelessly sought, was but an illusion, and as the harsh truth revealed itself Dewl completely shut off all his senses as a scream only one could hear rang through Lucia¡¯s head. And what was left in that fertile valleys place was not a barren wasteland, but a forest. A young forest visible in the open fields in front of a vast abyss, that did not have yet the time to truly grow into a tall and towering oak. Yet faced before this young oak neither woman screamed or shouted, nor were they shocked in the least. Instead, Aila merely looked down at the little boy''s small member and laughed slightly, while Lucia turned towards Dewl and said, ¡°What? Isn¡¯t it just a penis?¡± ¡°Shut up you perverted Knight!¡± ¡°Am not!¡± ¡°Are so!¡± The little boy commented, ¡°Come on, I can assure you my ass is tight that most women''s, it¡¯ll blow you out of this world.¡± Dewl shouted, ¡°Unlike you Succubi, I have morals!¡± Lucia coughed, ¡°And then the pot called the kettle black¡± ¡°Hey! For one thing, if a pot is talking it¡¯s probably a Mimic. You might wanna do something about that. And just because I raped you doesn¡¯t make me a rapist.¡± ¡°No, I¡¯m pretty sure it does.¡± ¡°And I¡¯m pretty sure we should have have buried this brat ten feet under for the sake of the Earth.¡± Lucia sighed, ¡°We are no burying a child just because you fucked him.¡± ¡°You fucked him too!¡± ¡°I¡¯m not burying a child just cause WE fucked him." ¡°Then do it for the world! The world doesn¡¯t need a race like Succubi!¡± ¡°That¡¯s racist!¡± ¡°You¡¯re racist! Your mother¡¯s racist! Hell, your whole damn race is racist!¡± The little boy commented, ¡°Oh and I¡¯m pretty sure Succubi and Tentacle Monster share a common ancestor somewhere along the line, so you can think of me as your long lost relative or something like that. We are all typically from the same region after all.¡± Dewl screamed, ¡°That doesn¡¯t make it any better!¡± ¡°Ah, but you know what will?¡± ¡°I swear to whatever God is up there...¡± ¡°If you shove it up my ass!¡± ¡°That¡¯s it killing him!¡± Chapter 10: The Capital City After a week of walking the bizarre trio of women finally managed to catch sight of the Demon Empire¡¯s Grand Capital City. Or rather could one even call it a city? The Capital City was a massive city the size of a small country. The amount of land the city took up was too vast for the three women to make out just where this absurdly large city even ended. The city extended far into the east, floating atop of the Great Lake. It extended to the west passing through forest and mountains. It was far enough south that there were still a few patches of snow, and yet still the city extended north past the horizon. And as if this city were constructed by some madman it extended even further towards the sky, whether it was the buildings, or the walls, or the roads, or the very city itself they all extended towards the sky. Buildings were seemingly stacked on top of each other, walls would section the city as the city grew taller the closer one got to the center, and chains were laced all over the city seemingly to keep the city from collapsing in on itself. And at the very center of this massive cone shaped city was a floating palace, a grand floating palace far into the sky chained to the city by four massive chains coiling around four of its corners. And as Lucia stared at this massive city she couldn¡¯t help but say, ¡°Isn¡¯t this city a bit too big?¡± Dewl nodded, ¡°Probably¡± ¡°I can¡¯t even imagine how constructing a city like this is even feasible. Think about the logistics, where are you going to put the waste, what about the water, the cities food supply. How long does it take to even get from one side of the city to another? A bloody year? What about all the traffic and congestion!?¡± ¡°Um¡­¡± ¡°And what¡¯s with those buildings? Are they residential? How are people even going to get to those doors without stairs? Did someone think they were aesthetically pleasing? And why did you turn a floating fortress into a palace of all things? Was there really a need to chain down something that¡¯s more likely to fall than float away?¡± ¡°Lucia?¡± ¡°And what if it does crash down! You just destroyed what I¡¯m assuming would be a good portion of your city, you¡¯d lose the symbol of your Empire and a strategic weapon like a floating fortress!¡± ¡°Lucia¡­¡± ¡°What!¡± Dewl paused, ¡°Well, I...how do I put this. I never expected you to get so excited after seeing the city¡­¡± ¡°Excited!? Do I sound excited!¡± ¡°Well, you sound pissed off for some reason¡­¡± ¡°Who? Me? Why would I be pissed?¡± The young succubus laughed, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, it¡¯s probably just due to the hormonal imbalance the transformations caused by altering your body.¡± ¡°Hormonal what?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry about it, nothing a little genetic manipulation, a few transplants, blood transfusions, and magic won¡¯t fix.¡± ¡°But you aren¡¯t going to fix it are you?¡± The Succubus laughed, ¡°Of course not! Do you think I¡¯m a charity?¡± Dewl¡¯s tentacle extended out of her armor, ¡°Come on! Just let me kill him!¡± ¡°Again, we are not killing a child. Now settle down, we¡¯re almost at the capital city.¡± The trio quickly sped up and rapidly approached the capital city¡¯s southern gates. And as they grew closer a massive line of carts, carriages, Demons, Dwarves, Beastmen, Knights, Undead, and all manner of races were waiting to pass through the capital cities gates. With all these races one would think a fight would easily break out between the likes of the Dwarves and the Elves, or the Lizardmen and the Undead who¡¯ve long since taken over the Lizardmen¡¯s ancestral home. But other than the occasional scuffle, no one dared to truly start a fight. Or at least not before the massive gatekeeper standing above the equally massive gates. Atop of the stone walls surrounding the city were four Dragons, each dutifully watching over the gates. If there was even the slightest problem it would only take an instance for these Dragons to solve the issue. Lucia looked around and noticed that there were several hundred more people in the vicinity heading towards the gate. She turned towards Aila and the little Succubus, and said, ¡°We should probably hurry up, that looks like a pretty long line¡± The succubus laughed, ¡°We don¡¯t need to wait in line. Follow me.¡± A pair of pitch black wings shot through the back of the Succubus¡¯s clothes and she began rapidly approaching the gate. Aila quickly followed her, and Lucia looked down at Dewl for a moment before casting a physical enhancement on herself. The three of them quickly speed towards the gate ignoring the line. One of the Demons turned around and as he saw them running towards the gate he shook his head,¡°Ah, what pitiful fools.¡± ¡°But looks like we¡¯ll be able to see a little show.¡± ¡°It¡¯s a shame don¡¯t you think? Maybe I should swoop in and try and save one of them.¡± ¡°The one with the skimpy armor looks quite delicious.¡± ¡°Oh save me an arm, I bet it would taste delicious.¡± ¡°You idiot! I don¡¯t mean delicious like that!¡± ¡°Well, maybe the gatekeeper will be a little lenient you know. Dragons are known to love women and treasures after all.¡± ¡°Yet, these Dragons don¡¯t even accept bribes¡­¡± ¡°Of course they don¡¯t, do you even know how much treasure the Emperor gifts these Dragons for their services? You¡¯d have to spend an astronomical amount to bribe your way past this line.¡± ¡°Damn, this is racist. I wanna get paid a mountain of treasure for just sitting up there and acting threatening.¡± ¡°It¡¯s not racist if you were as strong as a Dragon then that could probably happen.¡± Reading on Amazon or a pirate site? This novel is from Royal Road. Support the author by reading it there. The crowd began joking around and betting on what would happen to the likes of these three women as they ran to what they assumed was their impending doom. And as the three of them grew extremely close to the gate, the Dragon atop the wall let loose an intense roar that shook the very walls it stood on and could be heard from miles away. With its massive wings it flew off the wall and landed just in front of the three women. It glared at the three women and spoke in a deep voice, ¡°You dare to cut the line before me? Are you prepared to face the punishment?¡± The dragon opened his massive jaw, and just as he was about to swallow the three of them whole, the little succubus pulled out a pendant. And as soon as the Dragon saw this pendant he immediately paused. Suddenly, the massive dragon disappeared and kneeling before them was a young red haired man in a black armor who hurriedly began saying, ¡°I-I apologize, milord, I did not recognize you.¡± Lucia turned towards the Succubus trap and asked, ¡°Milord?¡± The Succubus turned towards her and smiled, ¡°What I never told you? My name is Trra P. Luxuria the heir to the Succubus clan that rules over the Province of Lux, and the next in line to inherit the title and position of Lust.¡± Trra turned towards the Dragon kneeling before her, and said, ¡°So are you going to eat us?¡± ¡°No, milord, I did not mean to-¡± ¡°Then come on?¡±, Trra walked forward and the entirety of her clothes vanished into thin air, ¡°Devour me¡± As a sweet smell began to fill the air, and a loud clang could be heard from the Dragon crotch he shouted,¡°Please Milord!¡± ¡°Silence! You are to me violate you as punishment for your actions!¡± Trra removed her shoes and cast a spell causing the Dragon¡¯s massive dick in no way inferior to the size of Lucia¡¯s clit shot up covered in precum. Trra stared at his giant flaming rod and laughed, ¡°Looks like you¡¯re quite backed up.¡± She flew into the air and stood atop of the Dragon¡¯s dick, poking and playing with it with her small feet. Her feet began to be covered in the Dragon¡¯s precum, but that only allowed them to more easily toy with him with easy as it provided ample lubrication. Trra looked down at the Dragon¡¯s member and opened her mouth allowing her saliva to fall down on his penis. As a Succubus, any of her bodily fluids can act as a powerful aphrodisiac especially when consumed or applied to the genitals of any gender. And as the heir the Succubus clan and the next in line to be Lust, the magically altered saliva from her mouth was exceptionally powerful causing the Dragon¡¯s dick began to swell. She smiled and lowered herself, allowing both her feet to rapidly stroke the dragons massive dick. And thanks to her magic and the aphrodisiac effects of her bodily fluid the Dragon could no longer hold on any longer. Soon enough the Dragon came and as his semen shot into the air like a Geyser. And despite the fact that the dragon was in Human form, he was still in his very essence a Dragon. He was a being as tall as a four story house and was absolutely massive. It was almost as if it were raining semen in that one moment. But as the semen was about to hit the ground, it stopped where it was and began floating before all the semen began to gather around the palm of her hands. All the semen gathered up and transformed into a massive sphere which slowly began shrinking. It began shrinking, and shrinking until eventually, all the semen was the size of a marble. The semen lit up momentarily in Trra¡¯s hand before it hardened and became a clear white crystal. Lucia who was observing this whole time asked, ¡°What¡¯s that?¡± ¡°This? Oh, this is just a crystallization of the Dragon¡¯s mana and life force. Usually, we¡¯d have to gather a week or two¡¯s worth of semen from a hundred or so people to form a crystal of this size, but as expected of a dragon. All it took was one massive shot.¡± Lucia recalled the pendant she held up, it was a simple pendant mostly constructed out of silver, but it also had a distinctive red crystal. ¡°Then that pendant of yours¡­¡± ¡°Oh, it was something inherited by the First Lust, a crystal formed from the deflowering of a million virgins mixed with the First¡¯s own semen. It¡¯s a one of a kind item.¡± ¡°...¡± Trra laughed, ¡°We Dream Demons can consume food to sustain ourselves, but we also possess the ability to steal life force and mana. But since we aren¡¯t always successful we create elixirs, to more easily store life force. And later on, we even began to crystallize life force and mana. It¡¯s quite a useful trick.¡± Trra turned and looked down at the dragon¡¯s now flaccid member having shrunk to nearly a fourth of it¡¯s original size. Trra paused, before teasing the Dragon¡¯s penis with her feet once again. But it seemed no amount of stimulation would allow this once towering blade regain its magnificent luster. Trra clicked her tongue and spit on the ground in disdain, ¡°Aren¡¯t you a Dragon? Pathetic, already down after one shot.¡± Trra ignored the thousands of gazes watching her and began walking towards the gate, leaving behind the Dragon lying there with his giant flaccid dick lying on the ground unconscious. Lucia stared at her dumbfounded, was this really the girl, or rather boy that she had violated and toyed with just earlier? Isn¡¯t he basically an entirely different person? Trra turned her head around, ¡°Hmmm? Aren¡¯t you coming?¡± Suddenly a white haired Demon walked out pants down pounding his meat thoroughly and said, ¡°Yep, I¡¯m cumming alright¡± ¡°...¡± Dewl sighed, ¡°Can I kill him at least?¡± Chapter 10.5 The Dragons Mansion In the middle of the Demon Empire¡¯s Capital City was a particular mansion in the eastern part of the city. The mansion was surrounded by a short wall and forest and was almost seemingly secluded from the noise and bustle of the city itself. In this forest stood several dozen black armored guards with a wide array of hair colors. Some of them had a head full of red hair, others blue hair, then some green, brown, black, and even purple hair. From an outsider''s perspective, they all looked rather ridiculous, they were all lined up neared the front of the forest standing still and if we were to add in a few more colors than we¡¯d have ourselves a nice little rainbow. But in reality, anyone who saw these several dozen guards would be frightened out of their mind, though this wasn¡¯t particularly a problem since most people were too afraid to even approach the vicinity of this forest. After all, this mansion was created to house the emissary and leader of the entire Dragon Race, the Lord of the Dragon Valley, and most importantly the monster that holds the title of Pride. Any one of these titles were enough to cause nearly anyone to prostrate themselves in fear let alone all three. And currently in this grand mansion, or rather underneath this grand mansion was a dark dungeon where a certain red haired guard that was previously standing over the south gate was being chained up. In front of him was a beautiful woman in a blood red dress matching her hair. In her hands was a long whip formed from her own scales, and as she glared at the miserable dragon in front of her she lashed out with her whip tearing straight through what should have been an impenetrable armor constructed out of the Dragon guards own magically reinforced scales. But no matter how tough his armor was it was no match for this woman¡¯s whip, as could be seen by all the tears in his armor and wounds he¡¯s been inflicted. The guard looked up at the woman in front of him and begged, ¡°My lady please, have mercy¡­¡± ¡°Trash¡±, she swung her whip down once again making a large lash on one of his legs, ¡°Not only did you lose face for our entire Dragon race you did so before hundreds of thousands of people and in the capital no less.¡± The whip was swung down once more, ¡°You even allowed that brat to toy with you. You¡¯re really a glutton for punishment aren¡¯t you.¡± The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation. And once more, ¡°If we didn¡¯t have more Dragons available you¡¯d already be dead by now.¡± And again, ¡°You didn¡¯t even last one round from what I heard. One round! Do you know how pathetic that looks for us!¡± And again, and again, and again, you get the gist of it, ¡°We¡¯re the proud Dragon race, the incarnations of lust, greed, wrath, pride, envy, gluttony, and sloth and you can¡¯t even last a single round!?¡± The guard begged, ¡°My lady it¡¯s not my fault...that succubus¡­¡± The woman lashed out with her whip again, ¡°That succubus isn¡¯t even a woman! Do you hear me!?¡± Suddenly, the door to the dungeon opened, and another black armored guard walked in a kneeled, ¡°My lady the Emperor summons you!¡± The woman turned around, and sighed, ¡°Very well.¡± She released the chains binding the guard, and then almost instantly afterward kicked him sending him flying into the adjacent wall nearby. ¡°Reflect on what you¡¯ve done.¡± As soon as the woman and the other guard left, a quiet but seductive voice filled the guard¡¯s mind, ¡°Kukuku, what a miserable state you''re in.¡± Suddenly Trra appeared before him, and he smiled, ¡°All thanks to you milord, your plan was brilliant!¡± Trra laughed, ¡°Indeed, Dragons are the incarnations of the seven sins, but typically Dragons tend to lean towards a single extreme. So I suppose that makes you the ultimate masochist.¡± The guard blushed, ¡°Please milord, I¡¯d rather you insult me rather than praising me.¡± ¡°Kahaha, as expected of the ultimate masochist. You¡¯re nothing like a Dragon you¡¯re more like a pig!¡± The guard got up, and kneeled down, ¡°Thank you.¡± ¡°Anyway, I¡¯m just here to complete my end of the deal, here.¡± Trra tossed a small bottle of a purple liquid and said, ¡°That should last you a few years, there are no side effects but the transformation to a woman only last 48 hours and afterwards you can¡¯t use it for a week.¡± ¡°That¡¯s more than enough Milord, with this I can finally fulfill my dreams of being gang raped.¡± ¡°Oh yeah, I forgot I failed to get gang raped dude to someone''s interference.¡± ¡°Oh, then Milord would you like me to help you get gang raped by several dozen Dragon Guards?¡± ¡°Oh ho, that would be splendid.¡± Chapter 11: Literally Just Walking Down A Street ¡°Was that really okay?¡± Trra turned around, ¡°What¡¯s okay?¡± ¡°What you just did, you just humiliated a Dragon and the gatekeeper to your Empire¡¯s capital city at that.¡± ¡°It¡¯s alright you heard the man, I¡¯m the heir to the Succubus Clan, the bearers of the Sin of Lust who eternally walk the path of debauchery.¡± ¡°Isn¡¯t that worse? I mean isn¡¯t the main reason those Dragons are standing watch over the gates is to show off the state''s power? And as a representative or I suppose as an important official standing directly under the state, to humiliate one of those Dragons would be akin to directly humiliating the state.¡± Trra laughed, ¡°A dragon representing the state? The Emperor? As if! Girlie remember this, you aren¡¯t in the Human Realm continent anymore. If you think a Dragon is strong enough to represent the Emperor then you¡¯re sorely mistaken. You, Humans, underestimate our Empire far too much.¡± Dewl laughed, ¡°Indeed.¡± Lucia sighed and then asked, ¡°Anyway, where are we heading?¡± Trra turned around, ¡°Well I¡¯m heading to the Eastern District, there¡¯s a little business I need to take care of.¡± Aila turned around as well, ¡°I¡¯ll be meeting with an old friend.¡± ¡°Wait then what am I supposed to do?¡± The two of them paused and then turned to Lucia and said,¡°¡°Hell if I know¡±¡± Aila instantly disappeared, while Trra flew up and laughed, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, somethings bad is bound to happen eventually. You¡¯re in the capital city after all!¡± He immediately took off into the air and shot to the east leaving Lucia standing there in the middle of the crowded streets standing dumbfounded. She looked to the east and then to the north, before smashing her fist into a nearby building causing it to shake violently before screaming, ¡°You gotta be kidding me!¡± ¡­ Lucia hurriedly walked through the streets, her face flushed a crimson red as she quickly made her way to the center of the city. Dewl laughed, ¡°You were fine with it earlier, what¡¯s wrong now.¡± Lucia quietly mumbled, ¡°Well it was just us three, but now there are hundreds of people staring at me.¡± ¡°Then let them stare! Marvel at our beauty!¡± Lucia couldn¡¯t help but yell, ¡°They aren¡¯t staring at you!¡± ¡°Why on the contrary, those goblins sitting down on that chain over there above us a few minutes ago were ogling me for quite sometime. Clearly, they wanted to feel my soft and gentle exterior covering your supple chest.¡± ¡°And then there was that Orc about half an hour ago staring at beautifully crafted skintight suit perfectly highlighting the contours of your ass. Clearly thinking what a wonderful time they would have if they were to wear such exquisite living clothes.¡± ¡°Oh and did you see that brothel we passed by, it was several stories above the cafe with the Lycanthrope nervously waiting for his blind date. There was this fat old lady sitting by one of the windows advertising about their fresh new slaves when she noticed you walking by¡± ¡°She seemed to have an acute sense of smell and it''s more than likely she was able to smell your sweet juices mixing with my own. There¡¯s no way she wouldn¡¯t want to put me on any one of her girls to attract customers.¡± Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings. Lucia glared at Dewl and began pulling at her skintight bodysuit, ¡°Why are there even brothels in the middle of nowhere. Don¡¯t you guys have a red light district!?¡± ¡°Of course not, this is the Demon Empire¡¯s capital city! The city one can indulge in every sin imaginable, well for the right price anyway.¡± ¡°Then how are you supposed to maintain order, without laws, without rules, without regulations then you won¡¯t be able to maintain and establish a country let alone a functioning city.¡± Dewl laughed heartily, ¡°Laws? What are laws? They¡¯re nothing but words scribble onto a piece of paper. It¡¯s not the laws that matter it¡¯s the thing that they stand for that count. Tell me, why do you think people fear the gate keepers.¡± ¡°Huh?¡±, Lucia turned her head, this was a completely meaningless question, ¡°Because he¡¯s a Dragon.¡± ¡°Then what if he wasn¡¯t a Dragon, what if the gate keepers were those ordinary soldiers no strong than you crusaders. Do you think if that Dragon was reduced to a mere soldier that the gates will be reduced to nothing but anarchy? Of course not.¡± ¡°Naturally they fear those four Dragons, but perhaps to you, Humans Dragons are these supreme existences, but to us, they¡¯re nothing but a slightly strong member of the same Empire. As we passed by that crowd that crowd of hundreds of thousands of people there was at least a thousand that could take on that Dragon.¡± Lucia gasped in shock, ¡°But Dragons are at the very least an A-Class Dangerous Monster. Even the weakest of them are at the least a B-Class Dangerous Monster.¡± ¡°Do you think an A-Class monster could take on a hundred thousand people? Let alone several hundred thousand people? Think about it, how many Human Knights do you need to kill a single Dragon? 10? 50? 100? At most 200?¡± ¡°Perhaps only some of the more powerful Dragons could even stand a chance at going up against those numbers. Yet those Dragons are able to sit up there on their high horse and stare down at all of us fearlessly, and I¡¯m sure you know why.¡± Lucia slowly nodded her head, and hesitantly spoke: ¡°But without laws...without laws¡­¡± Lucia shook her head, ¡°You know what, I¡¯m not going to get into an argument over politics with a tentacle monster who is violating me because there was some old lady in a brothel that was for some reason just randomly in the middle of the city.¡± ¡°Quitter.¡± ¡°Y-You shut up! Anyway, where is this building? We¡¯ve been walking for who knows how long.¡± ¡°Nine hours, fifty-seven minutes, and thirty-three seconds. Oh and miss I don¡¯t know what the word straight means, in more ways than one, it¡¯s right in front of you. It probably wouldn¡¯t have taken us literally the whole day if you had any sense of direction.¡± ¡°Well excuse me.¡± ¡°You''re excused.¡± ¡°That¡¯s not...whatever¡­¡± Lucia looked up and saw a massive building before her with a small signed labeled, [Guild] plastered on a sign board covered in papers in front of it. ¡°So they really did have an Adventurer''s Guild here huh¡­¡± ¡°Yes, we¡¯re rather inclusive aren¡¯t we.¡± ¡°Yeah, sure you are. Anyway, let¡¯s head inside.¡± Chapter 12: Monochrome As Lucia walked through the two massive doors before her she gasped in shock. The building was for the most part constructed out of wood and stone, and there were numerous facilities inside the Guild itself. There were stores, a kitchen, a dining hall, a teller from the Merchant¡¯s Guild, and representatives from the Adventurer¡¯s Guild itself. Things that seemed pretty typical for an Adventurer¡¯s Guild. But to her surprise, there were hundreds of corpses lying about. There were corpses of normal beasts like wolves and bears, and then there were some more exotic beasts like Cockatrices and Earth Dragons. And then there were even corpses of Goblins, Kobolds, Orcs, Ogre¡¯s, Oni¡¯s, Vampires, and even some Demons. Perhaps this wouldn¡¯t be so weird if this were in the Human Continent where the likes of these Demi-humans were actively hunted, but this was the Demon Continent which considered even the likes of Goblins as citizens. Yet here they were, tens of Goblins laid on the floor or tables being dismantled. Yet no one seemed to bat an eye. And then there was the massive blue crystal floating in the air surrounded by two spiral stairs. Perhaps most people wouldn¡¯t be aware of what exactly this crystal was, but as the Captain of a squad of Crusaders and a user of magic herself, Lucia was fully aware of the value of this crystal. This crystal was to put it simply, a mana stone. To most people this stone is practically useless, you¡¯d have to either be a talented Magic Craftsman, an Alchemist or have some aptitude of a Mage to find any use for this stone. But that didn¡¯t mean it wasn¡¯t rare or valuable. As a matter of fact, it was worth several times its weight in gold. Supposedly there was even discussion among the upper echelons of the Merchant¡¯s Guild to use it to create a standardized currency. Yet here in front of her stood a massive mana stone, standing nearly three stories tall right in front of her. Just how much could you buy with this? Imagine if you could somehow steal this, wouldn¡¯t you be set for life? ¡°Hey you, newbie¡± ¡°Y-Yes?¡±, Lucia turned around and saw a field of glossy green scales. She raised her head and realized that standing before her was a half naked Lizardman towering over her. ¡°Are you going to just stand there and block the door?¡± ¡°Huh?¡±, Lucia looked at the wide door way before her, and asked, ¡°I¡¯m blocking the doorway?¡± ¡°Of course, why don¡¯t you come with me, brat.¡± ¡°B-Brat?¡±, Lucia looked around and noticed that the bustling Adventurers Guild seemed to come to a pause. Every one of the Demons, or rather Adventurers were staring at her and the Lizardman at this very moment.¡± ¡°Ah, no it¡¯s fine I¡¯ll just-¡± The lizardman extended his massive hand, ¡°Come with me.¡± Suddenly, Lucia felt a sudden burst of strength fill her as Dewl¡¯s armor tightened and the tentacle attached to her womb suddenly expanded by three sizes causing her to cry in shock. Lucia¡¯s body suddenly shot up her leg raised high into the air causing the tentacles to dig further into her womb and causing her love juices to slightly ooze out before her leg came crashing down like a hammer on the Lizardman¡¯s head. The Lizardman¡¯s head crashed down into the ground leaving a large hole in the Guild¡¯s floor. Lucia turned to Dewl panicked, ¡°Dewl, what are you doing!?¡± ¡°Protecting my property.¡± ¡°Property? I¡¯m not yours!¡± Suddenly, the Adventurers Guild erupted with cheers. Several people raised their mugs and cheered, while others stood up and slowly started clapping. This novel is published on a different platform. Support the original author by finding the official source. ¡°Splendidly done newbie!¡± ¡°That was an absolutely perfect performance.¡± ¡°Rejected once again, Mich.¡± ¡°A beautiful 23rd attempt! Next time why don¡¯t you try someone of your own race!¡± The Adventurers laughed and joked around hitting each other, smacking each other, sending each other flying through the roofs, walls, windows, and floors. Lucia looked around confused before suddenly a short Imp in a black suit walked up to her. He gave a weary smile before bowing slightly, ¡°I¡¯m sorry for the disturbance, are you here to put in a request?¡± ¡°Ah, no, I want to register as an Adventurer.¡± ¡°Oh?¡±, the imp picked his nose, and spit on the ground, ¡°Sam get the hell down here!¡± A blonde haired woman with ram horns standing atop the stairs surrounding the mana stone yelled, ¡°Y-Yes Boss!¡± She immediately jumped off the stairs and landed before the Imp, the Imp turned to her and said, ¡°Get her registered.¡± ¡°Y-Yes sir¡± The Imp walked away, and Lucia followed Sam up the stairs to the crystal, ¡°Here you go¡± Sam handed Lucia a blank brown card with several boxes lined out, and explained, ¡°This will be your Adventurers Card, it will signify your rank and serve as proof of membership as an Adventurer. You don¡¯t need to register with your real name, you can use an alias, but if you do so you can¡¯t use your Adventurers at the Merchant¡¯s Guild¡¯s bank.¡± ¡°Now to register, all you have to the do is touch the crystal all the mandatory information will be automatically be filled out for you and added to our database. While all the optional information will be up to you to fill out through the crystal.¡± Lucia nodded her head, ¡°Okay¡± She raised her hand and touched the massive mana stone, and she watched as words were silently engraved into her Adventurer¡¯s Card. Lucia looked down and the card, and began filling the remaining fields out on her own. Seeing that she finished filling it out, Sam asked if she could see the card, ¡°Hmmm, Ms. Lucia D. Ewl correct?¡± Lucia nodded her head, she had chosen not to use your actual name and instead replaced her last and middle name with Dewl¡¯s name. ¡°Race, Living Armor?¡±, Sam looked up and then at the armor, and then back at the card, ¡°I see. According to your card, you should be a B-Class Adventurer, but as a formality, all new Adventurers start out as F-Class Adventurers.¡± ¡°Normally we¡¯d just allow people to undergo several B-Class missions to serve to advance their rank, but that has led to a number of fatalities after all the system isn¡¯t absolute. So instead we¡¯ve assigned you to a senior adventurer who you will have to shadow for a mission. This will allow those who¡¯ve yet to party with anyone understand how a party works and for us to assess whether or not you can take on difficult missions on your own. And on that note.¡± Sam turned around, and screamed, ¡°Yuya!¡± Suddenly, a figure bolted through the crowd and jumped up to the stairs. Lucia looked up and saw a petite catkin balancing herself. She had black, white, and orange hair and a short tail that mysteriously flowed through the air. ¡°Yes, ma¡¯am?¡± ¡°Can you get Kuro, to watch over this girl? She¡¯s a living armor rated a B-Class by the system.¡± ¡°Aye sir~¡± Sam turned around and introduced the catkin, ¡°And this is Yuya, also commonly referred to as Kuro, Shiro, and Haiiro. An A-Class brawler, mage, knight, and the S-Class party Monochrome.¡± Yuya smiled and extended her hand, and when Lucia went to shake it Dewl suddenly stiffened, and screamed, ¡°WAIT MY TRAP SENSES ARE TINGLING.¡± ¡°Your what?¡± Chapter 12.5 J茅sus Christ In the Human Continent lay the Church of Light. In the Beastmen Continent, the numerous tribes worship deities of the land and ancient beasts from the Forgotten Age of the Gods. But in the Demon Continent, there was no one faith, nor religion. The Demon Continent was just far too vast. To the east, the undead worshipped their lord. In the Valley of the Dragon Lord, they worshipped the strong, deifying each successive Dragon Lord. While the Elves worshipped the massive tree that extends to the sky as their God. But the Demons, they had no God. The closest thing they had to a god was an Emperor. But by no means did they worship him. Perhaps they feared him, but by their unruly nature that was a difficult thing to say. Yet at some point, these unruly, foolish Demons managed to find their way to their one, true, and rightful God. ¡°That is right my devotees, we have found our God! Amen!¡± The crowd before a fat man in pure white robes lined with gold all screamed fervently, ¡°Amen!¡± The fat priest waved his golden scepter that looked unusually like a certain phallic shaped object piercing what looked to be an imitation of a woman¡¯s vagina with four elephant ears hanging off both sides, ¡°Praise be to our lord and savior, the eternal breadmaker who lives in the skies above the stars. He who is that which we cannot yet see within and without ourselves in our hearts, minds, body, spirit, soul, and *****¡± One of the pious believers walked up to the priest and fell to his knees crying. The fat priest saw this and raised his hand in the air signaling everyone else to be quiet. ¡°What is it, my son.¡± The man cried, his words barely audible, ¡°O-Oh Lord J¨¦sus, Master Pope who is our master and almost at the level of our God, an almightiest of fathers, I have sinned.¡± The man slammed his head against the floor nearly opening up his skull as he cried and cried before the fat priest stopped him. The fat priest put his hand on of the man¡¯s forehead and said, ¡°Worry not my son, let our lord god father mother of heaven and earth flow in you, through you, and out of you my son.¡± ¡°F-Fath-¡±, the man paused and his tears stopped. Suddenly he began spasming uncontrollably and his pants grew a shade darker as liquid began to flow down his legs and onto the ground. The crowd gasped in shock, before suddenly cheering. A woman in the crowd shouted, ¡°It¡¯s a miracle! Oh, praise the Gods!¡± Suddenly, everyone paused and the priest glared at the woman who just spoke, ¡°What did you just say¡­¡± The woman paused and her expression grew incredibly pale as she soon realized what she had just done. The massive crowd soon parted like a sea as the fat priest stood up. The priest walked towards the woman in question slowly stripping off his robes revealing the fat flesh underneath. By the time priest made his way over to the woman he had already completed stripped naked and was standing before her. The girl fell to her knees, and began begging for forgiveness, ¡°O-Oh, great pope who stands above all mortals, Lord prophet who was sent her to watch over us foolish sheep who know not the way to our Lord, I beg you I only-¡± A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation. The priest slammed his, again very very oddly shaped scepter on the ground and shouted, ¡°Silence fool!¡± ¡°Eeep!¡± ¡°Our dear brother her, who has sinned was forgiven by our lord god father mother. And it was an absolute miracle as he was not only cleansed right before us, but he was blessed. Yet, you...you!¡± The priest''s body began to morph turning inside out. All his bones and flesh soon became visible and his body grew from being extremely short and fat to being rather tall and muscular. ¡°You dare speak blasphemy in the Church of the One and Truest God of all Gods!?¡± The priest grabbed his golden scepter which was now far smaller than his hand and smacked the woman with enough force to send her flying across the rather large church into a wall. The woman tried to get up, but it was no use several of her bones were broken and had pierced her flesh and skin and if nothing were to be done she would soon bleed to death. The priest looked at her and said, ¡°Now sinner repent by letting our God flow out of you.¡± And despite being at the very brink of death the woman sat there, and piously began praying, ¡°May God flow out of me.¡± The priest smiled and then walked away. ¡­ ¡°Weren¡¯t you the Church of Bread and Wine just a few months earlier.¡± ¡°Hmmm?,¡± The Pope from the mass just early turned his head and saw a Demon with two broken black horns and a head of grey hair behind him, ¡°Oh, Greed.¡± Greed walked over to the wine rack by one of the walls and poured himself a glass. The Pope wrote down a few words in the massive book behind before saying, ¡°Don¡¯t drink that, that¡¯s the blood of our Lord.¡± ¡°Blood of your Lord? I thought this was your Lord.¡± ¡°That was last month. But I got real tired of wine, so I changed it. Anyway, what do you want I¡¯m busy changing the holy book. It¡¯s an important religious text, you wouldn¡¯t want me to mess up because you were here.¡± Greed laughed as he took a sip of wine, ¡°If it were that important you wouldn¡¯t go changing it every other month.¡± ¡°Hey, I¡¯m going to need to keep the folks down there entertained somehow.¡± ¡°Entertained huh¡­¡± ¡°Anyway, out with it what do you want.¡± ¡°Oh nothing really, I¡¯m going to die soon so I thought I¡¯d see a religious authority to see what to do with myself in the afterlife.¡± The pope paused, and turned around, ¡°Are you serious¡­¡± ¡°About half.¡± ¡°Are you really Greed¡­¡± ¡°Look, even I can¡¯t escape fate or at least fate¡± ¡°What?¡± ¡°Anyway, I just came to ask you a favor , oh Pope.¡± ¡°That¡¯s unusual, you¡¯re not the type of person that likes to owe people.¡± ¡°Oh, don¡¯t worry I won¡¯t owe you nothing.¡± ¡°So you will owe me something.¡± ¡°No, that¡¯s not, you know what I mean¡­¡± ¡°Anyway, I¡¯m sure you¡¯ll be rather interested in this deal. There¡¯s a lot in it for you after all.¡± The Pope closed the holy book in front of him, ¡°Fine, then out with it¡± ¡°I¡¯m going to need you to help dethrone the Emperor.¡± Chapter 13: The Elder Lich A goblin walked up to a door, and said ¡°Here you go, room A3E5D67. Enjoy your stay. After all, who knows how long you¡¯ll be here.¡± He threw Lucia the keys before quickly scurrying away, ¡°Thanks I guess?¡± Lucia walked inside the room and threw her sword and the bags she was holding down on to the floor before lying down on the bed. She lay there staring at the ceiling vacantly when Dewl suddenly transformed back into a pile of tentacles. He slowly began retracting his tentacles into Lucia¡¯s womb leaving her body bare naked, before asking, ¡°Whats wrong?¡± ¡°Nothing, it¡¯s just...it¡¯s been a long day, or perhaps I should say it''s been a long week. Hell it¡¯s been a long month! Honestly what do you want me to say.¡± ¡°Whatever you want, go ahead let it all out.¡± Lucia sighed, ¡°You know what? Never mind.¡± ¡°It¡¯s not healthy to just bottle everything up like that. If you¡¯re sad, cry; if you¡¯re happy, cheer; if you¡¯re angry, lash out. If you hold it all in, then one day...then one day you¡¯ll just break.¡± ¡°You know for a tentacle you¡¯re surprisingly thoughtful.¡± ¡°That¡¯s racist.¡± Lucia laughed, ¡°Yeah¡­¡± Lucia turned around and closed her eyes, slowly falling into a deep sleep. Dewl sighed, and slowly climbed out of Lucia¡¯s womb. He used his tentacles to slowly climb up to a nearby drawer and peer through the window staring into the city. Suddenly, he shot back to the ground and transformed into a suit of revealing armor, as the window in front of him was kicked open. The catkin Yuya landed in the small room, and smiled. He looked over at Lucia who was sleeping naked on the bed and then at the empty suit of armor that was standing upright. ¡°Sorry about this, if Shiro were still here we would have just sent you a raven, anyway that''s beside the point. Here take this.¡± Yuya tossed a piece of rolled up parchment. Dewl caught it and opened it up revealing a drawn picture of a Lich, or rather more precisely an elder Lich. ¡°S-Class Danger Beast, Elder Lich, and former Grand Magus of the Mages Guild. Normally his extermination would be deemed an S-Class mission, but his phylactery was discovered and was damaged by mages sent to pursue him by the Mages Guild.¡± ¡°The Mage¡¯s Guild has sent out a total of 16 Master Class mages, 4 Grand Mages, and Archmage to deal with the Elder Lich, but he was still able to get away. Currently, the Team of Mages is being pinned by the Elder Lich¡¯s undead forces and reinforcements sent over from the Land of the Undead. The Mage¡¯s Guild has requested the Adventurer¡¯s Guild to assist them in the extermination of the Elder Lich.¡± Yuya glanced at Lucia and said, ¡°We leave at daybreak. That should give you and your host more than sufficient amount of time to prepare. I¡¯ll brief you more on the details in the morning, but if you don¡¯t arrive, we¡¯ll consider that you decided not to participate.¡± With those words, Yuya jumped straight out the window and completely out of sight. Dewl looked down and the parchment in his hands, and then back at the window before returning to his tentacle form and slipping back into Lucia¡¯s womb. ¡­ Early in the morning in front of the Guild, there were a group of three adventurers waiting outside. In the center, stood Yuya the Calico catkin, to his right stood a short, female dwarf, in a pink robe sitting atop of a bag that was as tall as she was short. To her left was a tall elf, standing at an abnormal eight feet tall who looked especially lanky. The odd trio looked at the Adventurer gates, and saw a female in a very skimpy armor running towards them. Compared to all the other adventurers around her the female knight looked especially frail, but she appeared in front of them in nearly an instant. If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen from Royal Road. Please report it. ¡°S-Sorry for the wait,¡± she spoke between deep breaths, ¡°I got a little lost.¡± Yuya looked at the other two and nodded, ¡°That¡¯s fine, anyway let me introduce the two of them. This is Wiz.¡± The short female dwarf waved her tiny hands, ¡°Hey there.¡± ¡°And this is Archer.¡± Archer nodded his head. Dewl laughed, ¡°Ahhaha, what a creative name. Ten out of ten, would name again.¡± ¡°Anyway, let¡¯s head out, take this.¡± Yuya threw a small scroll to Lucia, ¡°It¡¯s a teleportation scroll the mage¡¯s guild provided us. It should bring us all to the east of the Capital City, we need to intercept the Elder Lich before he can make it to the Library under the Lake.¡± ¡°Library under the lake?¡± ¡°Hmmm? You never heard of it? You know how the eastern part of the capital city is mostly filled with water? That water originally comes from a great Lake to the east, and beneath that lake lies a massive underground library from the Age of the Gods supposedly.¡± ¡°If the Elder Lich were able to enter the library, not only would it be impossible to find him, but it would allow him to grow exponentially using the knowledge he¡¯d be able to acquire from the library.¡± ¡°Ah¡­¡± Dewl laughed, ¡°Or even worse, they could wake up the monster living down there in that library.¡± ¡°There¡¯s a monster in the library?¡± ¡°Yeah, all sorts of monsters in fact. After all, that library is one of the few remains from the Age of the Gods, but there¡¯s one especially frightening monster living in that ancient library. The Sin of Envy.¡± ¡°Eh, but wait, aren¡¯t the Seven Deadly Sins the Emperor¡¯s personally picked retainers?¡± ¡°Of course, but the Seven Deadly Sins have also historically been some of the Empire¡¯s biggest troublemakers. And Envy is by no means an exception. Anyway you should hurry up and rip that scroll, look they went and gone ahead of you.¡± ¡°Huh?¡±, Lucia looked around and noticed that Archer, Wiz, and Yuya had already left. She panicked and immediately ripped the scroll in too. Soon enough she was surrounded in a bright light before being transported thousands of miles. When Lucia opened her eyes she was surprised to be on the floor surrounded by a bunch of skeletons. And just to her right there was the Elder Lich sitting atop a throne of bones, he looked down at her and said, ¡°Now what do we have here?¡± ¡°N-No one really, I¡¯ll just get up and be on my way¡­¡± ¡°Servants, get her!¡± The skeletons surrounding her all raised their swords, and began hacking down at her. Lucia immediately drew her sword, and with one heavy swing sent dozens of skeletons flying. ¡°Can¡¯t we play nice for a little bit?
