Dragon Lord: Erotic MMO

Chapter 62 62: Demon Whelp!

The demon let out a snarl as it swung its sword at Zell, its twisted horns glinting in the dim light. Zell dodged the blow, his blades flashing as he struck back. The sound of metal clashing together filled the air as the two engaged in a fierce battle with sparks and blood spraying around them.

The woman watched in fear as Zell fought the massive demon, her heart racing with worry.

She couldn't believe that he would protect her with no reward. He also seemed in danger right now. The woman wanted to do something, to help somehow, but she knew she was powerless against the monster.

'Is there nothing I can do?' She thought in despair. The boy's body hammered against some crushed rocks from the powerful blow he took. Yet an instant later, he shot back like an arrow and tore a slither of flesh from the colossal demon.

The moonlight illuminated his haughty face with a faint smile.

"So cool…"

[So cool…]

She watched as the demon's sword struck Zell, damaging his black dragon-scale armour and cutting into his flesh. Blood splattered across the ground as the wounds on his body deepened, his movements growing slower and more sluggish.

"Ugh! Fuck you!"

But Zell was not one to be trounced. He let out a fierce roar as he fought on, his blades flashing with deadly precision. The demon let out a cry of pain as Zell's blades cut through its flesh. The arcing slash tore through the meat like paper, then sliced off one of its arms as it dropped with a loud thud; Zell kicked the demon in its nuts to make it fall with blood spurting over his face.

"Hah!"

'Fuck, I cannot use all my skills! The damn merger is too slow and unfair. It sends out demons but doesn't give me my full regeneration or skills!'

As the demon fell to the ground, defeated, Zell let out a savage growl. He reached out with his blades and tore into the demon's chest, his hands coated in blood as he tried to rip out its heart. But just as Zell was about to deliver the final blow, the demon suddenly let out a fierce roar.

It swung its sword at Zell, its eyes burning with extreme intensity. It rose, its body writhing as it fought to survive.

Zell dodged the blow, his blades flashing as he fought back. The demon was relentless, its attacks growing increasingly desperate as it fought for its life.

"That was close…."

'I can feel my bones screaming… This battle needs to end fast!'

The woman watched in fear as the battle raged on, her heart racing with worry. She knew Zell was struggling and running out of strength. She knew she had to help.

'I have to help him! No, anybody else! How can I watch like this…. Something, anything! What did my daughter speak about…. Ah! A holy bolt…. a bolt of divine energy! This isn't a game… Still, the worst that can happen is I look stupid!'

While such deep wounds filled his entire body, a strange feeling of power began there as she watched the battle. She could feel a bright aura within her, a light that seemed to burn with a fierce intensity. She had felt nothing like it before. Yet somehow, she knew she could use this power to help this kind of man who helped her.

"Ah…. This feeling?"

'I am shining with a golden like him!'

With a fierce cry, she raised her hand and shot a bolt of holy energy. The energy coalesced in her palm, gathering into a bright, shining sphere. She could feel the power coursing through her veins, a feeling of strength and righteousness filling her.

Zell took advantage of the opportunity, his blades flashing as he finally struck the demon. The demon let out a cry of pain as the energy hit it, its body writhing in agony. The creature let out a final, pitiful cry before collapsing to the ground, its body writhing in agony as it died.

"Die, you ugly, foul-smelling fucker! Hah!"

Zell let out a savage growl. He reached out with his blades and tore into the demon's chest, his hands coated in blood as he ripped out its heart. The powerful demon aura, a black radiance of evil light, entered his body, so dense and intense that it caused his veins and muscles to bulge visibly before contracting again.

Moments later, Zell stood over the defeated demon. His aura was dark and bloody as he revelled in the victory.

He had avenged the innocent child he had seen tonight.

'I did it… Although I cannot revive you, I hope you can rest easy knowing your family is safe tonight.'

Zell grasped a clump of the child's hair that he spread with the wind as a tribute. To both the dead child and himself in the past, his weak and pathetic self. He finally killed one of them, that took his first pet. The badger Nora… his heart throbbed in pain at the thought of her cute little body being crushed…. 'Maybe… Rika will know more… About the other girls….'

This demon was the portal guardian; later in the merging, higher demons will pass through as guardians. Tiredness filled his body before he almost collapsed, full of blood. He knew he had done what he had set out to do.

"Hah…. Well, thanks for the help! I honestly would have lost at the end there without your help. Haha, right? Big sis'"

He turned to the woman, a smile on his lips as he saw the look of gratitude and admiration in her eyes. She felt the breath stolen from her lungs at his cute compliment and the dashing smile illuminating the entire dark, bloody passage. He completed his duty and kept her safe.

'What should I do? Mother is going to fall in love!?'

Looking at her, he couldn't help but feel a sense of attraction towards her. She was beautiful, with plump curves and a bright, cheerful expression. He felt his body respond to her, his desire for her growing with each passing moment.

"My name is Zell. I live close to here, and you probably need to be escorted home. Could you let me help you? I will also give you my number in case you find yourself in danger again. Also because the power you showed is something important. Could we talk at your house about what happened tonight?"

Zell could feel that she was not human because of her strange aura, scent and that power. Zell knew he should not allow his feelings for her to grow. But he couldn't help it, no matter how hard he tried. She was too beautiful, too alluring. He knew he had to fight his desire to control the demon within him.

'Eh? Does this count as a man asking for my number? An older woman in her late thirties!? Not to mention he's super sexy. Sorry again, my little angel; your new dad might give you a little sister soon! Let's think of names together, okay!'

"Mmmm, my name is Cryska. Well, I live close by; if you are okay with cheap coffee and store-bought bread, how about a late-night snack? Haha! I just finished a late shift at work, and now I'm filled with blood, sweat and other fluids…. Let me take a shower first; follow me. I hope you can teach me to become stronger…."

But as he looked at her, he knew it would be a constant struggle.

"Don't worry; if you follow my guidance, you will be as strong as me. Haha, here, take my coat. You look a little cold; a young lady shouldn't let herself get sick now."

He handed the clean coat from inside his inventory and gently placed it around her shoulders, his hot breath brushing her cheeks.

'Ah, my cute angel…. Your mother is going to become a Cougar tonight!'

[Zell.... this woman... Dangerous... More than demons!]
