Demon Lord: Erotic Adventure in Another World

The hulking demon loomed over Velvet's body, arms raised in the air while clasped together, tensing its muscular arms to build more power.

"Hrrk..."

Blood dripped down Velvet's lips as she spat on the ground, grinding her teeth while preparing for the demon's attack. Since the battle started, she relentlessly inflicted heavy damage on the enemy, causing dozens of dull black bruises and wounds on its body.

Thunder crackled in the distance, rain pouring down on his shoulders, trickling down her cheeks as the monster slammed its arms down, attempting to crush her.

"Fucker! The only man that can pound me is my husband."

Cursing at the monster, she gathered mana in her legs, causing the ground beneath her to crack and crumble into dust.

WOOSH!

The twisted aberration struck with a flash of dark aura, creating a howling wind as it tried to crush Velvet. She narrowed her eyes and jumped back the moment before it hit. Velvet avoided the attack, but the loose debris and stones shredded through her armour and cheeks.

"Tsk!"

She clicked her tongue before placing her hands on its palm and using it to springboard her body into the air. Velvet pulled back her leg, wrapping it in purple flames as she gathered power.

Twisting her hips in the air, she sent a sharp purple aura, kicking towards the monster's shoulder, once again striking the joint and tearing the flesh.

"Grrr!"

The impact caused it to stagger back, growling with its left arm now dangling without power.

"Haa.... damn this is annoying."

Although the monster could heal its wounds instantly, after damaging the same spot several times, she found that the super regeneration only worked three times.

The last attack was her tenth attack on that arm, and Velvet prepared to rip it off.

"I'd like to see you grow a new arm."

With a quick twist of her body, she sent out a flurry of kicks, each filled with her mana. Her body dug into the ground as flashes of amethyst blades tore into its flesh, bone, and nerves. The demon stumbled back, its arm unable to support itself, falling off with a dull thud, purple blood gushing out like a waterfall.

Her leg throbbed with pain, the veins and muscles bulging and convulsing after she anchored herself using her right leg, overworking her muscles that started to cramp. She could tell something had broken, but she ignored the pain and limped forward, a wide, twisted grin on her face as the monster's arm dropped onto the ground, burning in her purple flames.

It writhed in pain, its screams echoing throughout the battlefield.

Velvet grinned, her eyes purple, and like a hunter, she darted forward, ready to kill the monster...

"Eh?"

She gasped as the arms he removed flew past her like a javelin, its sharp claws primed to impale her. The claws, like a bullet, tore through her chest, bringing her charge to a halt.

The monster's claw plunged into her chest, going through the armour, flesh, and bone.

Blood gushed out from Velvet's lips, staining her chin red as the shock of impact caused the monster's sharp claw to shatter inside her body and tear through her organs.

"Guha..."

Velvet staggered forward, almost falling into the mud with blood gushing from her chest as she coughed up more, struggling to clear her throat as the sweet and coppery taste filled her throat.

She couldn't move her legs; they shook like jelly while the monster recovered from her attack. As if everything moved in slow motion, it stood above her with a twisted and malevolent smile. Its sharp, distorted teeth and low guttural growl that seemed to be laughter mocked Velvet because she could only look at its feet while shaking.

'Move!'

Velvet's heart thumped wildly in her chest, fuelled by anger and fear. She wanted to charge forward and rip its head apart in one punch. But no matter how much she willed herself to move, her body refused to obey her desires.

'MOVE!'

She urged her body forward once more, but as before, her legs betrayed her, giving out beneath her weight. Her mind screamed in frustration as her legs collapsed beneath her. A feeling of helplessness vanished, quickly replaced with a sense of distance as she fell to her knees.

Her eyes remained fixated on the monster, a mixture of loathing and determination smeared on her face.

The monster's towering presence loomed over her like a shadow. She gritted her teeth, a low growl escaping from her throat as she raised her chin and stared defiantly. Even now, Velvet wanted to fight back... but her sight faded, the monster and battlefield became merged in shades of black and white.

"Ugh... Kaha..."

'Is this it?'

Velvet thought about how many times she had reached this moment, on the precipice of death... yet this time, something felt different... the fight and desire to keep fighting slipped through her fingers no matter how determined she was to survive. She wanted to see Asmodeus, hear his voice mocking her, or tell her to relax...

"Asmo..."

Thud!

Her body fell back, gazing up at the grey sky, her eyes widening as she could see his power... "Ah..." A sense of calm and peace spread through her body and mind the moment she felt his nostalgic and overwhelming aura, different from the childish boy she first met. Her lips quivered and trembled as she formed a difficult smile.

'That fool... is he upset about me?'

Finally, the monster, although blurry, came into view, but Velvet didn't even feel hatred towards this lump of flesh now.

Because she got to see just how much Asmodeus cared, an awkward woman until the end, Velvet struggled to tell him how much she appreciated what he did for her family.

The way he saved her and treated her like a woman when many others would only treat her like a monster or witch...

The enemy lowered its body, spreading its lips to reveal thousands of sharp teeth travelling down its throat.

A true monster...

'So this is it...'

Velvet chuckled, her eyes starting to close.

"Asmo...deus—"

Suddenly, there was a flash of blue light, and a blade pierced through the monster's face looming above her with an outstretched maw.

"What are you doing, you stupid old woman?!"

Erika's shrill shout echoed as a sudden force washed over the area. A burst of lively mana surged through the air as the monster's head rolled along the ground, bouncing several times.

It lay there, staring with lifeless eyes at Velvet, its blood pouring into the land.

"Velvet! Get up, stop playing dead!"

The young blonde, one of her first normal students... just like Ryuji, she was stubborn and a little irritating, but Erika was special. The child had the same kind and innocent eyes that Velvet used to have when she was her age.

Erika stood above her, breathing heavily with two swords covered in purple blood.

"You're much too old to be so dramatic, so stand up! This fight isn't over."

'Ah... you cheeky little girl... this old woman is tired, let her rest.'

Velvet's eyes closed, but Erika was right...

Ever since that loud bellowing shout from Asmodeus, she couldn't die even if she wanted to... because his power and feelings poured into her body and forcibly healed her.

"N...no, that's not healing—he took the pain for me."

'Silly fool, I'll scold you when this is over...'

When Velvet dragged herself off the floor, swaying and staggering as her body crackled with wisps of aura flickering from her fists and thighs, she noticed it wasn't just Erika...

A beautiful archer with long green hair, a moody little witch who used to follow her like a daughter, and her older sister, refusing to give up on her.

"Haha... so you all came?" A bitter, low chuckle escaped Velvet's lips as she couldn't help but feel pathetic.

"Of course we came, foolish witch."

"Alice too?"

"Yeah, yeah, we're all here to help."

Vinea grasped her spear and stepped forward, standing beside Erika with a bitter smile.

"So annoying... I told you all to stay away."

"That fool would cry if you got hurt any more..."

Alice flicked her black hair back and stepped beside her oldest friend and family member.

However, Velvet wasn't ready for these young women to arrive.

All the women of Grigor stood together against the aberration that started regenerating for the second time...

"Foolish, stupid girls..." She spat out the remaining dried blood and grunted before glaring at the monster. Her purple eyes flickering with an intense power as she clenched her fists. "Forget it, let's kill this thing and go back to that emotional fool."

"Heh~ you're the one calling his name as you thought you died." Alice mocked her.

"Shut up, stupid child." Velvet felt embarrassed about her actions and what they might say after this was over...

But she was glad they came.

With them all fighting together, Velvet felt better...

Asmodea stood at the rear, using her powers to form a cage, stopping any demons from attacking them from the sides, while Levia managed the other demons attacking.

"Then... once it's regenerated, shall we crush this thing?"
