Demon Lord: Erotic Adventure in Another World

Asmodeus marched forward with his head hanging down and his axe resting on his shoulder. His movements became sluggish, almost drunk on his steps.

He reached the frontline where the Demon Knights were protecting him, Erika standing there with her dual swords, shocked that their leader would come this far.

"Asmo...?"

Erika's eyes shook at the sight of him, clueless about his plans.

He walked past her, not a single word to the demon knights or her... his lover.

And stepped into the front lines.

A group of demons rushed at him, cutting their air with their claws like razors, causing gashes and wounds over his body.

Asmodeus wasn't even bothered by the blood or pain. He raised his axe with a swift movement and ripped through their bodies, causing them to explode into ash, only to revive a second later.

He accepted their attacks, killing them in retaliation but never moving from that spot.

He stared down at the demons, all of whom looked at him with their hollow eyes.

"Go on, stand up." He mocked them, curling his lips into a twisted smile.

However, they couldn't.

Because Asmodeus started to adjust and understand the magic used by the ancient demon, he could feel the mana, the unique formation and used his blood magic to block the signals that allowed the dead to rise.

The black thread of magic started to burn away as he gripped the string and forced the ancient demon to fight him mentally. It was a power that could destroy his mind or sanity.

"I am coming for you."

Sariel's eyes widened, and she screamed in panic as she felt the connection break between her and Asmodeus. It was like he vanished from the face of the world, his mental energy cut off completely.

"Master!" She roared in an uncharacteristic tone, harsh. Aggressive. Filled with Despair.

However, she watched him with a focused gaze and bated breath until his figure, wreathed in black fire and crimson blood he took flight.

"He's not gone... but why?" Her breathing heavy, as she tried to follow. "Come back!" Suddenly, a hand yanked her back, dragging Sariel to the ground.

"What are you doing? Eh—"

"What am I doing?! That's my question, you stupid girl!" Velvet's eyes shone with an intense, violent glow, watching the strange black mist flow into Sariel's mouth before she suddenly became unstable and started screaming and crying out.

"V-Velvet? W-what happened to me? My head hurts, and I.... where's Master?" Sariel looked disorientated, rubbing her forehead, and a dull black flicker appeared in her iris.

"Asmodeus is fighting the bastard that just controlled you!"

The matured witch shook Sariel violently. "Do you understand?! You focused on helping everyone else—you didn't fortify your own mind!"

"B-But I'm stronger than them, and Master...?"

"You're strong physically, but mentally? That demon has existed for hundreds of years, and you are nothing but a child compared to him."

The stern words of Velvet were barely audible with the bloodcurdling shouts and yells as the demons maintained their assault.

Sariel's eyes quivered before falling to the ground. "You mean... I can't do anything?" She asked, but nobody could respond.

"We need you to help protect Erika and Ciela from the enemy magic." Velvet placed a hand on Sariel's head, stroking her hair before continuing with a softer voice. "Can you do it?"

"Yes..."

The Succubus raised herself off the ground and, with a nod, walked towards the front line where the demon knights continued their defensive efforts.

"Protect the front gate!" Levia shouted out to the warriors, who used their shields and spears to push back the advancing demons. "Aim for their necks!"

A demon smashed into a group of demon warriors, the force sending them flying across the battlefield, screaming. The warriors' broken bodies landed heavily on the ground, and blood poured out of their wounds as more demons charged in.

"Archers, take out those abominations!" No matter how many times they cleared the enemy, more poured in with aggressive and ruthless attacks.

Ciela was having trouble with the archers because they were not used to such brutal assaults. It didn't help that the demons were covered in thick, black scales and strange shards of solid flesh that protected most of their bodies from arrows.

Ciela ordered her archers to retreat behind the demon warriors' line as they tried to defend themselves against the hordes of demons rushing at them. The air filled with the sound of clashing weapons.

"Hold! We must hold on!"

Despite the brutal battle, the walls remained standing... with minimal loss.

Almost nothing could go wrong.

Until "He" stepped forward, as if waiting for Asmodeus to attack the necromancer... the largest demon finally made a move.

The towering figure slowly stood, its hulking frame shaking the earth and causing nearby rocks to shatter with each step. A sickening crunch echoed through the air with every movement as if something were being crushed beneath his feet.

A grey demon with a disgustingly emaciated figure covered in bone shards and scales moved towards the village with slow and unrelenting steps. The very sight caused many of the Demon Knights to become fearful.

The way the demon's eyes flashed as it looked upon them like insects ready for crushing only caused them more concern.

"Velvet?"

Sariel's eyes shook upon seeing the monster, something almost four metres tall; its imposing nature struck terror in the hearts of the demon warriors, who froze stiff with trembling arms.

The beast was like a giant. It towered over everything else on the battlefield with ease.

And yet...

Despite its immense size, the creature moved swiftly...

It charged towards the gates where Asmodeus had just departed and swung its arm, knocking away the demon warriors and destroying the protective wall, which was made from sturdy wooden beams.

BOOM!

The impact sent a shockwave that reverberated through the air, causing many to fall back while dust clouds billowed up into the sky above.

"I'll go... can you back me up, Vinea?" Velvet's eyes narrowed, her body billow with a purple aura, filled with a sense of danger and anxiety. She gripped her fists together and let out a long sigh while unfurling her wings. "Since you came in the absence of my husband, as his queen. Let me show you the etiquette of our family."

With each step, her magic flowed back into her body, the tribal markings along her arms flickering with a purple light.

Dark violet hair, amethyst eyes with a black sclera.

Velvet's size was tiny, insignificant compared to the enemy commander, her long ears fluttering and bouncing in the intense storm that followed the giant's attack. At the centre of her forehead, a single black horn formed with energy extended, crackling with lightning and purple runes.

"Insect." The giant spoke, a gritty, guttural growl.

She snorted, her black tail slapping against the ground as Velvet raised her fists and pressed them together.

"Shut it, Eunuch."

Demons of this type didn't have sexual or reproductive organs. Bred and created only for combat.

It was the first true battle for Velvet since she ascended to a Queen, her sensual and motherly figure swaying as she started bouncing, her heavy breasts jiggling erotically as she condensed her aura.

"Hmph!"

Woosh!

Her figure shot forward the moment Velvet flapped her four short wings, and the next instant, she appeared beside the demon commander's face as she

The air rippled from the shock wave as she pushed the giant back a step.

"Damn it... this guy is tough!"

The monster snapped its eyes and focused on Velvet, the blow a danger to him. He swung his long arms downwards, but she evaded the attack by flipping backwards and unleashing another powerful kick to the demon's jaw. Blood spurted from his mouth and splattered onto the ground below him.

Yet the monster seemed unphased, using his long tail to dart around before stabbing through the air towards Velvet's chest.

"Wha!?"

Like a bullet, the black spear pierced the sky.

With a flash of purple light, Sariel's mental magic caused the demon's aim to shift just enough for Velvet to avoid it by a narrow margin. She ducked low, feeling the air pressure from the tip pass above her head and graze her hair.

"Be careful!"

'I am trying... but thanks, Sariel.'

Her body flipped twice from the magnitude of force from the blow, her eyes sharpening as she realised this wasn't a normal fight. "He's regenerating..." Velvet scoffed, her body crackling with aura wrapping around her fists, as she blasted towards the monster again.

Velvet rushed the demon, her right fist slamming into its face, then her left instantly followed up. Each of her blows shatters the solid armour covering the monster's skin. The blows staggered it backwards, but it didn't fall over—it merely grunted and took another step forward.

The demon brought down both arms simultaneously in an attempt to crush her flat like some tiny bug beneath its feet.

"Hah! You haven't learned!" Velvet's wings pushed her to the side, avoiding the blow.

However...

A black spike of bone-like substance smashed into her stomach.

Gritting her teeth, she spat out blood and flew backwards, able to feel the movement of her organs. Velvet's eyes rolled back for a moment, fighting against the intense pain.

"Hrrk... damn it!"

Anger. Frustration.

Ever since she was cursed, Velvet, who lacked the talent for magic, used her mana to enhance her body. With a broken arm and torn wing, she flopped to the ground, facing the four-metre-tall demon, her eyes filled with pure rage.

"You dare... to trick me?!"

Velvet stood up, her legs shaking from the aftershock of the blow, before she readied herself once more.

Her left arm and wing were broken badly, but she didn't care.

"I can regenerate, too!"
