Devouring Monarch: Rebirth of the Profane Phoenix

Chapter 89: Misunderstanding Her State.



Chapter 89: Misunderstanding Her State.

Asura's chest felt heavy as the gigantic monsters leapt forward, his lance thrusting forward, covered in the new flame that burned the atmosphere.

He targeted the two wolves that went after Xavida, who still seemed stunned on the spot, her lips trembling and scales becoming bright pink.

"Xavida, wake up!"

The two wolves' huge maws bit down towards her small neck, causing Asura's heart to explode in rage, envy and disgust. The flames on his lance intensified, the heat almost screaming as it condensed along the blade.

"..."

With a dull gaze and flick of his wrist, the huge lance sliced across the air with a dark, resonating boom. A wave of flame followed behind the blade, like a giant meteor falling from the sky.

Only a moment later, the wolves tried to change their target, biting towards the blade, only for their teeth, lips, and flesh to be melted instantly. Then, cleaved in two, the blade sharper than ever with this super-heated flame tenderising all living matter.

However, Asura's emotions controlled the intense flames of the dark phoenix, so they exploded, bursting open the two wolves and destroying the surrounding area, the shockwave ripping through their bodies, flesh and bone that rained down over the forest, while his fierce eyes narrowed, gazing at the three bipedal monsters.

Xavida stood in awe, the black flames causing her to pant. She grasped her daggers, lightning flickering through her entire body as she lunged towards one of the bipedal monsters, an orc.

It tried to grab her, but lightning caused its hands to tremble and become numb. It grunted, swinging its gigantic sword.

Yet Xavida was too fast. Her body flickered in lightning as she appeared above the monster. Her wings flapped heavily, twisting her body like a spinning top.

She stabbed downwards, her dagger piercing through the orc's skull with a sickening crunch.

The next moment, her mouth opened wide as she growled like a predator, feeling threatened. An enormous dragon's roar resounded as her purple lightning struck the orc, causing it to explode.

As if she was competing with Asura, her eyes constantly flickering towards him.

Asura clicked his tongue, the other bipedal monster charging towards him, its large, golden sword aiming directly at his chest. He flicked his lance, meeting the attack head-on, the momentum causing both attacks to shudder violently.

Then, Asura's expression distorted, the flames covering his lance burning intensely before he twisted his arm and instead seemed to vanish into darkness, his body like a wisp of shadow dancing across the forest before emerging from behind the orc.

He climbed out of its shadow!

One of Lucretia's special skills!

His lance pierced forward, targeting the orc's spine. Yet unexpectedly, it spun around, the strange sword flashing with a holy light as it cut horizontally.

Asura's expression changed drastically. His feet kicked off the ground, his wings flapping, trying to escape. His eyes widened in annoyance before he opened his lips and inhaled the surrounding atmosphere.

His chest filled with dense air as his body flew backwards rapidly—a brutal fireball built up inside his mouth, black and dark red, crackling with power.

Then, his body stopped, turning mid-air, his mouth overflowing with the super-heated flame as he spat it forward, aimed directly at the orc's head.

Meanwhile, as Asura's dragon's breath shot towards the orc with the magical weapon, Xavida's sharp teeth tore into the final orc's body, ripping its neck open while her sharp tail and clawed wings tore off its arms, her state seemingly different from the gentle girl that was normally shown.

It was wild, feral, and ferocious.

Yet Asura didn't notice. He focused on his dragon's breath exploding against the orc's body, burning away any flesh, blood and skin, causing its muscles to melt away as it screamed, dropping its weapon.

Seeing the orc had fallen, Asura landed on the ground heavily, wiping his mouth, his face pale white, and his hands shaking uncontrollably.

"..."

He discovered the usage of the dark phoenix flame would increase his Anima drain. His body stepped forward to pick up the strange magic sword, his golden eyes appraising it as Lorem taught him in her lessons.

'I need to recover my...'

Before he could think of kissing Xavida to restore his Anima, her body launched at him, the force enough to push him down, her scales still dark pink and almost warm to touch as her tongue and lips ravaged his mouth.

Her wings wrapped tightly around his back as her legs locked around his waist. Her saliva overflowed into Asura's mouth as he almost choked, her tongue wrestling with his own, her tail wrapping around his thigh as if to lock him in place while she moaned loudly.

However, seeing Xavida in this manner, Asura couldn't help but enjoy it, his hands wandering over her body, feeling her smooth scales and firm buttocks, her tongue licking his face and neck as she panted.

'What happened?'

Asura thought confusedly as Xavida's guttural dragon roars continued the more she became entranced, her eyes almost shining like brilliant lights, while sweet moans entered his ears, her body rubbing fiercely against his own, causing his mind to drift away.

? Lorem POV

Meanwhile, back in the academy stadium, where everyone was enjoying the exciting day of action and events, the princess and her knight seemed to have a growing following, while the lustful dragon and her mate also had a big following to win.

"Hmm?"

Lorem looked at the image from Asura's crystal, only to feel confused. She watched his flame, and the feeling she felt the moment it appeared was close to Xavida. Her feathers flickered with embers of fire, her heart racing as she fought the desire to rush out of her box and find Asura.

Thankfully, after the initial fire, the attraction faded. Despite that, her body felt vibrations each time he used that flame, something like a mating desire filling her body and mind.

'That dragon girl... I know that condition. That old bastard bronze dragon told me about it...'

"What was it he said again..." Her mind returned to the distant past, maybe twenty years earlier, when she fought against the northern demons to stop their advance, which led to a peace treaty.

"Oh, yeah..."

Lorem became lost in her memories.

The image of a handsome male with a rugged look appeared in a large mansion. He was holding a small baby in his arms, her pale scales just coming through, as Lorem peeked down at a baby dragon for the first time.

"My wife chose the name Xavida, isn't she cute? Hahaha! Why fight when I have this cute girl to give my love to!"

After that, Lorem spent hours listening to the male speaking about his daughter before a beautiful woman with long pink hair entered. She looked frail and tired. It was the mother of Xavida who became weakened after birthing a dragon.

"But I worry..."

"What about?"

He looked so serious. The nation's king gazed at Lorem, making her think it was about another war between nations.

"Female dragons differ from males... If they meet an overwhelmingly powerful male, their bodies will become hot, their scales darker, and they will desire to make a child with that existence."

"Hmmm, isn't that horrible!?" her mother shouted before Lorem nodded.

"What if she already has a mate or lover?" Lorem asked.

"..." The king sighed deeply, looking at the sleeping baby.

"Then everything is fine. Unless the person that causes them to enter this state is their mate, they won't stop until they are sated."

Lorem watched as the existence she fought for several days to stalemate for shuddered with tears in his eyes. "Female dragons are scary... even my aunts and sisters used to look at me like delicious meat before they died."

'Wow, female dragons are so stupid.'

She said this despite the Phoenix clan and bloodline being quite similar. As she returned to reality, the scene where Xavida and Asura appeared vanished thanks to a red smoke pellet, meaning she didn't need to act this time.

'So, Asura made Xavida experience that state... lucky brat.'

Lorem felt envious of Asura and Xavida's intimacy, her feathers flickering with flames, the desire building up before she shook her head and glanced at the prince and princess.

To remove her feelings of lust, she found something that disgusted her and brought a smile to her face.

She enjoyed watching the prince being pushed forward by his knight and smashed around by Stage Three monsters, causing her lips to curl into a wicked smile.

'It seems Asura and Vela are the key characters in this assessment; soon, the instructors and nobles with invested desires will make their moves... I hope you can survive this challenge, Asura.'

Lorem felt amused that Asura seemed to have misunderstood Xavida at first. Which led to his anger, but in reality, she was just horny for him. "Have a good time, kids; use protection."

She grasped a glass of alcohol while leaning back.

This job, for her, was very enjoyable.
