Chapter 412: An Unsettled Mind
Asmodeus spent over a week in the capital. He and the others helped Ciela with the recovery after the execution. On the first day, Ciela was honoured for her contributions, and the alliance and help given by Grigor were officially announced, along with the potential alliance.
This created a brighter atmosphere, knowing there wouldn't be a war or clash in the future, which was something the concubine tried to manufacture.
'To think she made the people fear humans to retain power.' Asmodeus thought while drinking a goblet of elven liquor, a sweet and refreshing taste with sharp and tangy fruit flavours.
"Asmodeus, you seem preoccupied recently." Alice sat across from Asmodeus, observing him while writing in her thick journal.
"Well…" He muttered before sipping his drink and took a deep breath. "I am worried about the future." Asmodeus gazed out the window, admiring the clear night sky filled with sparkling stars and the looming moon.
"What do you worry about, darling?" Erika's cheerful voice followed, causing Alice to scowl at her.
The women sat around a large table, eating fruit and drinking. Velvet lectured Vinea and about her actions over the past journey and returning to Grigor in the corner. Sariel and Asmodea were drinking together, having their own competition.
"Returning home, and seeing Alan."
"Hmph!" Asmodea puffed out her cheeks, turning away.
"Alan, again… darling are you?" The tipsy Vinea stopped her question halfway with concerned eyes.
Levia seemed to have become friends with Fuuka and Aki who were discussing something about swords and combat styles in their little corner, sometimes peeking at Asmodeus with a shy smile.
Meanwhile, Ciela sat beside Asmodeus quietly, her face flushed from the elven wine.
Asmodeus found a moment of peace, after the months of constant clashes and combat, his eyes watching Lumina who sat just above the window, rocking with her eyes closed.
'The way she can sleep like this is amusing.'
He couldn't help but drink more and more wine, thinking about the future. The strange voice that constantly appeared, almost driving him mad.
A voice filled with grief, curiosity, and obsession mixed to create a dissonant voice.
[Does the voice worry you that much?]
He couldn't hide these feelings from Serena. She always watched over him, and with a gentle question Asmodeus closed his eyes, trying to focus on the people beside him and not the strange voice, which meant nothing to him.
'You're right, maybe I am being too worrisome.' He thought before glancing down at Alice's writing; there were dozens of new symbols.
"My darling, why don't we spend some alone time?" Erika leaned towards him, pressing her hands on his chest.
'Erika's drunk already?'
Asmodeus grabbed her waist, and took the goblet from her hands, downing the remaining nectar. "Ah, you took my drink~ darling, that's not fair." Erika's lovely voice made his back tingle, as he replaced it with iced water.
"Behave, or I will send you to bed." He tapped her back, letting his fingers feel her warm skin.
"Ehehe~ then take me to bed, I am a-l-w-a-y-s ready!" The flirtatious girl kissed his cheek before leaning against his shoulder.
"Oi, don't try to take advantage."
Smack!
"Ouch~ don't hit me, Asmodea."
"You deserved it."
"Don't act all shy, you did plenty in the camp," Levia followed up, before helping Vinea lift Erika, and toss her onto the enormous bed in the background.
'Haha, they all seem so happy and peaceful, but each one is like a vulture aiming for me.'
Asmodeus grinned at his women and stood up before stepping out onto the large balcony of Ciela's castle, resting his arm over the edge as he gazed over the cityscape.
"Hello Lumina." He greeted, as the Arachne lowered from her webbing, and sat beside him, swaying slightly on her web shaped swing.
"Asmodeus~ you've been busy." She whispered while approaching his side with four arms wrapping around his back as if supporting herself.
"I have, dealing with you lot is always troublesome." He stroked her hair, enjoying the warmth of the summer breeze on his face, the cool wind blowing against him.
"Mmm~ are we troublesome?" Her feminine tone, with a slightly raspy ending made his back tremble, along with a small kiss on his cheek from her luscious red lips.
"How about you stop wrapping me in your silk?"
"Ah~ you found out, fufu~ I won't stop, unless you kiss me."
He looked over at her feminine figure, covered by only black strips of cloth wrapped around her breasts and hips. As Lumina crawled down his leg, he didn't resist. Eventually, she stopped and leaned against him with his hand holding one of hers, feeling her claws brush against his fingertips.
'Asmodea and Alice want to intervene.' He noticed the pair watching him with fiery eyes, likely jealous of Lumina. 'Oh… even Levia.'
"Don't think about other females, when you're with me, okay?" Lumina's flirtatious comment made him laugh in realisation. His free hand reached out, caressing her cold neck and jaw. Her neck twitched against his soft touch, as a mischievous smile appeared across her human face.
"You make a valid point, Lumina."
He slid his hand under her chin, pulling her up towards him gently. Lumina's body clambered onto his own, with her long legs hanging over the balcony's stone floor.
"Ah~ My beloved is touching me." Lumina appeared overjoyed with a bright smile, raising her face closer until he could smell her sweet breath mixed with alcohol.
'This is dangerous.' Asmodeus realised as she crawled on his lap. Lumina kissed his neck gently while sometimes nibbling and gazing into his eyes seductively, and rubbing her thighs against his.
He grabbed both her hands, and pushed her away playfully with his finger, making her laugh and crawl around to his other side.
"Darling, I can't wait, when will we copulate?"
"Stop!" It seemed Asmodea reached her limit, as her Levia and Velvet dragged the spider inside, despite her eight legs grabbing the door frame, with a loud scraping sound she vanished from sight.
"Daaarrrlling!"
"What a peaceful moment." Asmodeus muttered, watching them tie her to the bed beside Erika, who slept peacefully while snoring.
A figure stepped close to him, but Asmodeus couldn't mistake the lovely demon that sat quietly on the castle wall beside him.
♫ Asmodeus ♡ Looks so handsome tonight ♡♡ I want him to hug me… ♫
"Sariel…" Asmodeus whispered with a faint smile.
He watched the mysterious and alluring succubus from the corner of his eye to avoid her, growing embarrassed. Her wings fluttered each time her voice reached another octave. Her song no longer childish, but filled with Sariel's honest hope and desire.
She kept singing, switching between playful, sensual and emotional lyrics, changing the movement of her wings and tail occasionally as if excited.
Asmodeus observed the strange succubus who revealed her true form with beautiful and lengthy pink hair, seductive blue skin squished against his arm while her pink eyes like rose quartz.
"I've been patient, I need your energy inside me."
(Ah… Sari, you've become such a naughty and direct girl!)
The voice of Riel sounded in the air, causing Asmodeus to smirk. When Sariel started fighting more often, they wouldn't be awake at the same time to avoid danger.
'It seems they feel relaxed after the last battle.'
Sariel climbed onto his lap, crawling over him slowly and showing her hips, wiggling at him sensually. His eyes followed her curves, the faint muscles, and squishy limbs while his fingers traced her thigh towards her voluptuous rear.
"You've become a rather naughty woman, Sariel."
"Hmph~ you made me this way, after teaching me naughty things." She snorted, while rolling her hips, enjoying his touch as his thick Mana flowed into her deepest parts, massaging her organs.
After a minute, her wings opened, and the Demoness pushed him backwards with an enchanting smile, letting his body press against hers. Asmodeus grabbed her waist firmly and lifted her up with his strength.
Though he wanted to keep her pure until she and the other succubus met, her bewitching evolution made things increasingly difficult, as her blue lips touched his cheek.
"Hey~ just the tip won't hurt, right?" The seductive and deadly whisper of a succubus.
(Sari, no… You must resist.)
"I am resisting. ♡♡"
(You haven't tasted or felt anything yet.)
"It doesn't count if it's the tip! ♡"
(Wait until you are fully matured, or it will be bad…)
"Fufu~ Riel also wants our master's thick cock inside her, right? ♡♡"
Asmodeus didn't interrupt, able to hear two succubi arguing about this topic unexpectedly tickled his ego.
(It… isn't wrong to want it, however…)
"Fufu~ You were waiting for a chance to steal a march, naughty Riel! ♡" Her voice became increasingly alluring as her sweet saliva stuck to her lips, an erotic scene as she tried convincing herself and Riel.
'Riel, why did you get quiet?'
Riel's voice grew quiet after muttering words under her breath, like, "Even I can't hold back, if it's this much."
Meanwhile, Sariel sat on top of Asmodeus with her hips wiggling with temptation as their legs intertwined.
"You're getting too bold, Sariel!" Alice interrupted, having approached from behind alongside Asmodea as the pair grabbed Sariel in their arms, like a criminal.
"Alice is jealous~ Fufu~ Jealousy is a woman's greatest enemy; we should have the night together and forget our anger! ♡" Sariel's temptation almost caught Alice, but she shook her head, pulling her away with tremendous effort.
When are you coming to kill me?
"Argh!?"
Suddenly, Asmodeus started to grab his head, with Alice and Asmodea suddenly turning to him and leaving Sariel on her own.
Alice let go of Sariel and rushed back to Asmodeus while kneeling in front of him.
Asmodeus stared at nothingness before speaking, "This voice…"
His eyes seemed to become distant and empty, while he could feel a pressure that almost crushed his brain, as if someone stepped on it. Alice grasped his chin gently, but sternly, and forced him to look at her directly.
"Get a hold of yourself, Asmodeus what's wrong?" She shouted in a stern and protective voice. Enjoy more content from My Virtual Library Empire
However, while preoccupied with Asmodeus, nobody noticed the changes in Sariel, and only Asmodeus could hear Riel's voice.
(What is this sound… Ugh…why…? I won't..... Asmo—deus help…)
Behind him, the light blue skin of Sariel shimmered under the evening stars. Her eyes swirled with pure chaos, watching Asmodeus with a distorted smile on her lips. That is… if she could be called Sariel at this moment.
