Demon Lord: Erotic Adventure in Another World

Chapter 90: Delinquent and a curious goddess

Ryuji leaned back, thinking about his request to Alan about Yumiko, only to remember nobles could only have two Chosen.

No one could change or hide the fact, and eventually. The truth would come out just as Ryuji heard it. Someone would win over the ones who concluded the truth.

Or maybe notice similarities.

He couldn't take the risk and didn't want to put Alan in a dangerous position.

"Alan, will Yumiko's true identity cause issues with the other nobles?"

There was a sudden echo before a beautiful voice sounded in Ryuji's ears.

[Lumia, the goddess of light, has declared you an enemy: Her apostles and knights will become hostile towards you upon discovery]

'What!?'

Ryuji felt confused for a moment.

He didn't understand why a goddess felt the need to declare this. He forgot Sheila declared him an enemy of the light. It seemed she finally made her prayer to the goddess and confirmed her concerns, which led to this notification.

He wanted to ask Alan but felt it would be a little horrifying to say. 'Oh Alan, what should we do if the goddess of light wants me dead?'

"To be honest, it will be difficult... Qwass and other nobles might use it against you. Even seeking to take one of you from my service forcibly."

Alan took a breath as he continued to look at Ryuji.

"Honestly, it is the reason I pushed so hard to let you both into the castle without suspicion. It will be difficult for her to avoid it in the long run, but I can work on getting Yumiko registered and treat the pair of you as one Chosen. Though it might backfire, I didn't expect things to turn out like my hunch, and now it'll be difficult."

"Why difficult?" Ryuji didn't want to rush or make Alan's life complicated. He felt if need be, then he would crush the enemies who caused trouble and show his value to make the king accept his request. "Though, why not use the excuse of us both being part of the calamity star? The king might accept that reasoning."

Alan tapped his chin, while a smile formed from the frown, "You are onto something there, but as for why difficult. Brother, you have made them both your women. Do you think I would let you be separated? That's why it's difficult but not impossible. Make sure you keep on good terms with the little witch she seems to like you."

'Liana likes me? Are you blind? That girl uses her lightning on me directly!' Ryuji thought, but instead of saying anything, he just nodded. He wondered why Alan thought this, but somehow, he felt it would lead to something annoying in the future.

"I see, I'll do my best."

"Don't sleep with her... If you pop her cherry I think even I won't be able to stop my brother from chasing you with scissors."

"I'll really do my best. Your niece is too erotic."

"!?" Alan let out a breath, but he nodded afterwards, wiping across his neck with his thumb like a razor blade. Ryuji couldn't help but be honest. The girl was erotic. That was when Ryuji realised that his sense of shame and embarrassment seemed to have become distorted upon accepting his demon blood.

'Maybe a normal human would never say something so blatant to the girl's uncle...' Ryuji thought, but at the same time, he accepted the fact. 'It doesn't bother me anymore.'

"Yes, please do your best. Anyways, after I've reported this to the king, we will return and make plans. Today, you will meet with several of the nobles involved in the higher-stakes conflicts of using Chosen. So, try to endure their taunts or words. I might be a Duke, but my power is VERY limited because of my past mistakes."

"No problem, Alan, we should get going. I don't want to make you look bad."

Ryuji and Alan seemed to share a bond, a level of respect that grew naturally. It wasn't something either of them worked on, but from the moment the two met, it seemed like destiny.

"You should try wearing armour and carry your axe to look more menacing. We need the visual shock to make those fools stop underestimating you because of being a C-Rank class."

'If he knew of my second class...' Ryuji thought, but Alan's suggestion wasn't wrong.

He was still a human to others, though his teeth were like a demon, his ears sharp and eyes piercing with an eerie beauty. He looked human, and in a world like this, his appearance was an advantage, especially with his current strength.

"No problem, Alan. Do you have any armour I can use?"

"Hmmm... there should be some I had delivered to your room. It will suit your new cloak and tunic well."

"Good."

Ryuji finished up his food and whiskey with Alan as they walked out of the room towards their destination. The plan was first for Alan to visit the king and then be on their way to meet the nobles Alan suggested.

"Ryuji!"

"Ryu...ji.."

Yumiko and Erika called out, one wearing an alluring but concealing armour of cloth and leather, while Erika wore a light leather armour that seemed similar to Yumiko's.

They both looked amazing or rather, if not for Yumiko's fluffy long ears and tail, both of them would look like sisters.

"I've got to get changed first. Can you girls wait for me?" Ryuji asked them.

"Okay," the pair of girls spoke in unison. They waited for Ryuji to change, while Alan went to visit the king first.

Ten minutes after Alan left, Ryuji appeared at the top of the mansion stairs; his black cloak and hood looked dangerous yet alluring with a sense of dark and deadly charm, while his pants were made of a strange material, both tight yet flexible, while he wore large steel pauldrons on either shoulder, making him look more imposing.

"Hey, how do I look?"

"Ah..."

"Wow..."

A perfect mixture of the sleek black cloak and hood and the silver armour made him look like a knight who dealt with enemies in the darkness.

"Hmm?" Ryuji's movements were fluid as he approached the pair with silent steps; despite wearing various metal armour, he didn't make a sound.

He wasn't doing anything special, but with his balance and the natural physical advantage from his bloodline, he moved as if he were a serpent from the abyss, creeping up on its prey.

"Wow... You look so sexy..." Erika's voice sounded before Yumiko, causing their heads to snap towards the duelist, biting her lower lips.

'Why the hell does this girl call out like that?' Ryuji couldn't help but feel embarrassed under the two women's gazes.

"Ryuji..." Yumiko's words seemed to have a sense of admiration in them while her tail wagged rapidly. "You look cool!"

Her small fists clenched as she pumped her arm up and down, resembling a child. Ryuji chuckled at this before approaching and patting her head. "Thank you for the compliment. Now, we should get ready to meet some nobles; remember to be on your best behaviour."

"Yes."

"Hmph, I'm always a good girl."

Yumiko's words brought a small snort from Ryuji, while Erika remained silent as she admired Ryuji and thought about how he bullied the her without giving her a chance to rest blast night.

****

Not long after, the carriage with Alan came back and picked them up. There was a feeling of anxiety in the stomach of Erika, while Yumiko seemed to feel a sense of worry for Ryuji who always stepped forward to protect her.

She didn't want him to keep hurting himself or sacrificing his life to protect or make her happy. She wanted to repay him, not as a tool but as a woman, the same woman who loved him.

"Come on, Yumi, sit here." Ryuji and his confident smile patted his thigh as if to entice her.

However, this time, she did what he asked, ignoring the look of Erika and Alan; Yumiko sat on his muscular thigh, leaning against his chest while closing her eyes. "This is my seat from now on... hmph."

The snort was loud and clear, and she crossed her arms over her chest, showing a satisfied expression, which led to a light sigh from Ryuji.

"You are so lovely when being this cute, Yumi. But it's difficult... because it makes me want to push you down."

Alan heard the whisper but pretended like he didn't hear it and instead looked away, rubbing his ears with his fingers.

"Why is this bastard so..." Alan's voice muttered while the carriage moved with a loud creak and snap from the whip hitting the monsters pulling the carriage.

A small thud caused Ryuji to turn to his left and see Erika on the opposite thigh, with her back turned towards Yumiko, leaning against his other shoulder, looking at him with a pitiful expression, her blonde hair in a tight bun with curled bangs and complexion only enhanced the image.

"Sorry..." Her lips mouthed this word before closing her eyes, and he could feel the warm breath of both girls against his neck.

Ryuji could only put on a smile that resembled a sigh, 'My life seems to be full of the best women.'

He wrapped an arm around each of them, pulling them against his chest so that the movement of the carriage wouldn't cause them to fall. He felt that the meeting would cause a lot of trouble, his sense for bloodshed and the gods might have a thing or two to say after today.
