"THUMP, THUMP"
"Irellia!"
My eyes snapped open, and I gasped deeply for sweet air. I rolled, now on the ground, coughing and wheezing, opening my eyes to Victoria and...Irellia? My mind still muddled with all the information, I tried to sit up, and both girls helped me.
"Are you ok, Dave? Victoria asked me while she helped me up to my feet.
"I think so," I say as I grip my head and Victoria's arm before looking up at the crystallized version of that girl, Irellia. "It looks like another person I have known has shown up. How long was I out for?"
"About five minutes. Do you know who I am?" Irellia asked me, stepping back some.
I paused to look at her and then stepped towards Irellia, taking her hand. I looked into her get filled eyes. Behind us, Tenten and Victoria were sputtering in confusion, both releasing sparks for different reasons.
"I remember you reaching out, running away, the dance, and the..." My voice trailed off as I touched the surprisingly smooth and soft surface of her cheek.
"At least you have that much," Irellia said, stepping back. "Seems some of us will always be glued to his side." The last part told while looking over my shoulder.
"Well, master, What will it take to get you to part with this rapier?"
"Hmmm? That you can have it if you tell me what you plan on doing about fate and the demon attached to him?"
"Grasmald? He fused with Biford?"
"Yes, as far as my people know, only his household demons have been let loose. He has collected dangerous people to take the demons in. What do you plan on doing about it?"
"We only have one demon left in our household that has a chance of escaping. After that, we plan to convince other noble houses to get rid of their demons without Grismald getting to them first. Our biggest problem lay with convincing the other house and getting Miss Grace out of jail at the end of the next week."
"Well, I might be able to help with Grace. That will be the easy part, but convincing the nobles will be something we will need Grace and her father for."
"Miss Grace's father?"
"Yes, Duke Vistorm, of Vistorm Banking. Apart from being the largest bank on all Noble and Celestial levels, Duke Vistorm funds many of the Highmage Councils projects. The biggest thing is that he doesn't know his daughter is the lowest dungeon pit of the mage councils dungeon. I'm sure you don't need you to use your imagination too much to think what Duke Vistorm will do when he finds out."
"True, so we have a deal then?" I asked.
"One more thing," and Irellia leaned in and gave me a soft kiss on the lips that left me with a half kindled fire.
I turned to Victoria and Tenten, but Victoria looked away. I began to say something, but I noticed Irellia put up a hand.
"Go ahead with Tenten, Dave. Tenten, find Dave something nice, but not so dangerous to him and the health of the others around him."
"Alright! So no Ion Glass Cannons, or Damage Absorbing Armor, or Rotating Glass Blades of Doom?" Tenten was already out of the room, and I followed.
Tenten took me back to the display room and scanned me up and down, then came over to look at my armband shield. The TV looked at it from a couple of angles and then sped off the look for something without speaking. Soon it came back with something that looked like a melted piece of glass, but Tenten hands it to me with a big digital smile on its face.
"This Augmensive Glass! Hold it up, and your shield will absorb it. This blob of shapeless glass will give spikes like ice on the shield's smooth surface. Talk about giving them the stiff and pointy one!" Tenten joked.
"That's actually pretty cool, Tenten, thanks!"
"Awe, boss, you know the master, so I have to be nice to you. Plus, I don't get many visitors!"
Just then, Victoria came back into the room carrying her new sword in an over the shoulder sheath. When I saw her, Victoria had a more relaxed expression than the last time I had seen her, back in Irellia's room. Hopefully, whatever they talked about smoothed things over.
Tenten led us to the elevator, and we both waved goodbye as I pressed the button to go up. Both of us stood a bit awkward as the elevator rose, but suddenly, the car stopped moving. I looked to Victoria, but she was clearly putting on a fake expression of surprise.
"Oh no, what do we do? We are all alone in an elevator, stuck with no way to get help." Victoria tried to use a flirtatious voice, but I ended up laughing instead.
Victoria tried to frown at me, but I closed the distance between us and scooped her up off her feet. She let out a squeak, and I turned my back to the corner, sliding down, with her in my arms. Victoria had her arms around my neck by the time we had slid down.
"Took you long enough," Victoria murmured as she pulled my face to her and our lips touched as we enjoy our break from the world.
(Lavender and Iona after gelato)
"NYO! Yooo made me EAT TO MUCH!" The alien and demon sounds coming from the bloated blonde loli started to scare passing people and potential customers, so Lavender and Iona were kicked out of the Gelato shop. Iona complained the entire way back, and Lavender scolded her about ordering too much. To the average onlooker, it was a perfect picture of mother and daughter.
By the time they had got back to Darbon's Smithy, the sun was already going down. Tilly was waiting for the girls at the front of the stall. She held three almost reflective, small syringes out to Iona.
She took them from Tilly in confusion at first, but then Iona realized what they were. Iona screwed up her face but both, Lavender and Tilly could see the tears that she wiped. Iona turned and started walking back towards the house.
"Thank you," came out in a small voice as Iona walked away.
(Back at the house in Dave's room after everyone had eaten)
"So that's the plan then? And we are all in agreeance? At least as much as we can be before getting in there, right?"
"I think we have talked this thing to death already and today was mentally exhausting, so I think I will be going to bed. Vic and Tilly, do you want to walk me to my room? Iona and Dave have something they need to deal with, right?"
The girls all agreed, leaving Iona and I in my room alone, sitting on my bed in our pajamas. The one-meter syringe lay between us, and I took a deep breath before speaking.
"Are you ready?"
"Why are you asking me? You the one about to eat a demon!"
"Good point," I laughed as Iona looked at me nervously. "I have a question before we start. When Tilly and I fought the snake demon, it said something about not using the power I had or controlling the demons. Do you know what it was talking about?"
"Hmm? I think the problem is your level, tomorrow I can show you what I know, but you shouldn't try to use it on something like Nemicoramus. At least not without mastering it first."
"That is a very good point. Well? shall we?"
Iona picked the syringe and placed the tip in my mouth. As she pumped the black and ever-moving contents into me, something different started to take me over. Gone was the pain and loneliness. Instead, my body started to heat up. When Iona finished, she looked and me curiously, my body red from the heat and practically panting.
Iona got up and locked the door, and then she changed. The cute loli, long gone, replaced with a goddess's curvy body, the nighty she had worn before barely covered. The lust and need boiled into me from the demon succubus poison as the older Iona seductively walked towards me.
"This will be our little secret," Iona whispered to me as she blew the candle out and crawled into the bed with me.
A new scar burned into my chest as our bodies connected. I moved her body are so she was on her knees and I moved behind her, pulling her pink panties aside thrusting my tongue deep inside her dripping wet slit. Iona let out a cry of pleasure as I moved my tongue inside of her body with force. she tried to pull away panting in ecstasy, but I grabbed her hips, forcing her into my tongue that lashed her throbbing pussy.
Suddenly, Iona cried out and a warm gush over he
r sweet juices flowed over my face. I could feel her body tremble and shake as I took away my face, while still holding her hips. My throbbing erection pulsed as I moved it closer to Iona dripping hole.
"Please, Dave, I need...ahhh!"
I didn't let her finished as I drove my rock hard shaft into wet flesh and she cried out in ecstasy again. I grabbed her hair and brought her body up against mine, grabbing her breasts as I slid in and out, feeling her juices leaking down my shaft. I kissed her neck and bite her ear lobes, while toying with her erect nipples, making her moan with pleasure.
"Dave, it feels so big right now! I think I'm going cum again...ahhhhh!"
I sped up as she cried the words to me and I could feel the pressure building inside. As I felt her flesh tightening around me I ejaculated into Iona and her body shook violently as she lay her head back on me with our final strokes. Iona eyes rolled around in her head as I finally pulled out and she had a smile of dizziness on her sweat covered face.
Our connection had lasted long after the poison of the demon had been absorbed.
Chapter 36: Nemicoramus
When I opened my eyes, I was in bed alone. Memories of last night touched my mind as I got dressed. I had no idea that Iona had felt that way, and the night was bliss, but the way each girl acted left holes in my thoughts.
Why are they so forthright with their feelings? It felt like I was traded around like some useful item, not that I would complain, but my head tells me that this will cause problems. Maybe I should try talking to Lavender about it after.
Pulling my red coat on, I left my room and went into the hall. To my surprise, all the girls were waiting and ready to go. Iona was back to being the loli, and Lavender was picking at one of her pigtails while Iona tried to fight her off. Tilly was talking to Victoria, who was wearing a new set of plate armor that shone from the demon stainless steel Tilly, and I had gotten from Gershaha.
When I opened the door, I quickly looked at them all relaxing before all eyes turned to me. Tilly wore a green and white dress standing beside Victoria in her shining armor. Lavender had a pink and blue dress with a cut on both sides of the leg, while Iona wore a cute pink frilly dress that she must have been stuffed into by Lavender.
"So, are we all ready?"
"Mmmhm!"
We all started to walk towards the bathroom, but Iona slowed down a bit to bump her little hips into me. I looked down, and she gave me a mischievous wink before catching up with the girls. I followed behind, and when we opened the door, no massive yellow eye was waiting for us.
Instead, A pathway that floated in a galactic sky was in front of us. Stars and planets were the backdrops to the two-meter path we had to walk, and it led to a gigantic platform. At the end of that platform was a staircase that led up to a single door.
Once we reached the first platform, the pathway we had come from disappeared as though it had never been. Four pedestals rose from the galactic painted surfaces where four creatures were standing on them. Each one had the black of deep space for skin with cracks and tears that let light stream out, and even though the lightless back, PEIRCE EVIL revealed the undulating black miasma.
"Be careful and don't get cornered alone," I yelled out as I activated the hand command for LIGHT BLADE.
The white blade didn't stop until it had taken on its DEMONBRINGER form.
"DEMON HUNTER!" I screamed as Tilly reached under her red cape.
Tilly pulled out a large glass triangular rifle that I was instantly familiar with, but I was confused about how she got it, but then I remembered the cape. Tilly tried to fire the gun, but the beam emitted was absorbed into the monsters' blackness.
"Throw it, and everyone gets near me. Lavender, make a wall, and get in close to me with Iona!"
Things started moving at a rapid pace from that point as everyone followed my orders. Tilly threw the Ion Glass Cannon and ran to me. Victoria dart back from the one she had been engaged with, running to get close.
An earth wall rose from the galactic floor like only the surface was painted, and the rest was just regular ground below. Each of the girls had pulled in close to me as I raised my arm. Instantly a shield started to form around us as we heard the sound of glass shattering.
"THHHHHHUPH! BOOOOM!"
The vacuum in the first stage deafened us, and we were only lucky that the shield finished before the second part. Even from inside, we could feel the heat from the massive explosion, and all the girls held me close as more glass, and metal fiber poured from my armband. I looked down at it and was surprised to see that it was running dangerously low.
The explosion died off before my armband ran out of thread, but it indicated that the shield had its limits, even after the Augmensive Glass. I looked down at all the girls, and they all seemed fine, just a bit shaken. Each pulled away except Iona, who held on just a bit longer than the rest.
The shield fell, and the galaxy scene was gone, nothing more than a broad and blasted out cave. A massive hole was in the wall where the staircase and doors were before. I turn to look at the girls but froze when we all heard the roar.
"MY PETS! MY VISTA! YOU HAVE DESTROYED MY HOME! COME FACE ME, MORTAL CHILDREN, AND I WILL DEVOUR YOUR SOUL!" the deep draconic voice of a very angry Nemicoramus roared out.
"What do you think he will do if we just wait here?" I asked jokingly to the girls, but loud enough to be heard.
"WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE? I CAN HEAR YOU, YOU KNOW!"
"Like how mad do you think he will get?" This time it was Tilly asking loudly.
"Don't make me come in there!" There was still heat in the dragon's voice, but it no longer screamed, almost sounding a bit hesitant.
"Oh? But It would be so much more convenient for you to come to us, so by all means, come in here," Lavender's voice tried to convince Nemicoramus, but then the dragon started to make up excuses. Bad ones.
"Well, you see, I have the appointment for my hair later, so it would just be more convenient for you to come inside."
"Is it that the big scary dragon can't leave his cave?" Victoria teased.
"No, no, no, you see, I just don't like the air out there. It's stuffy, and I have gotten used to this air in here, so if you can all just kindly GET IN HERE SO I CAN EAT YOU, everything will be fine."
The dragon sounded on the verge of a mental breakdown, but we didn't let up. We each taunted and poked fun at the dragon for hours, but nothing could get him to come from his cave until Tilly had an idea.
Tilly reached behind herself again and pulled out a potion. On the side, it said, "Magical Beast Polymorph Juice." All that was left was to decide who would become the female dragon to woo Nemicoramus out of his special cave.
That was the plan from the start. Lavender had found some information about Nemicoramus, never leaving his cave other than to stretch his massive head out. This information made us think that the key to defeating him was getting him out of his cave, but not everything was going according to plan.
Nemicoramus did not want to leave his cave, so what we figured out was right, but that still didn't help us with the problem of him not coming out, so when Tilly offered Victoria the potion, we had put all our bets on it.
"Do I have to take this?" Victoria complained while looking at the slightly glowing light blue liquid.
"You and I will go to that all you can eat meat house. Just the two of us, ok?" I offered to Victoria, but once I said the last part, the empty potion vial was sailing through the air.
Victoria began to grow and enlarge. Her body and armor stretched, wings tearing from her back. Soon, a large Stainless Steel Dragon stood in front of us. Even as a dragon, Victoria was stunning.
"How do I look?"
"Stunning, I mean, your so damn shiny I can barely look at you, even in the dim lighting. From what I can see, you look great, but let's keep going with the plan."
Victoria nodded her draconic head and moved closer to the gap where a door and stairway had been. Tilly and Iona took a l
eft, and Lavender stayed with me. The plan was to get Victoria to draw out Nemicoramus, and we would start the plan. That's what we wanted to happen.
Victoria let out a roar of challenge to the hiding Demon dragon and stepped back.
"Oh? What is this? Did you bring me a gift?"
Nemicoramus's voice took on an interested tone as it got closer. Victoria started to step back, but a massive clawed and scaled hand crashed through the wall and pinned her down. The talons tore into her stainless scales like it was human flesh and Victoria screamed out in pain.
