Moonlight Demon (GL LITRPG)

Chapter 197

Niven

Beyond the last gate, the body of a young boy walked between the golden trees found west of Jade, and just a bit north of Pearl. This was where the portal would send the forces of Onyx if they came to destroy this object. 

How amusing,  Niven thought, smiling as all around him were his demons. Having sex, eating each other alive, fighting. When they weren't in the middle of a battle, this was what they did all day. That Magia's champion would resort to such tricks to win the day was certainly fun to watch.

As Niven paced through this beautiful forest, near the three pyramids that were keeping this portal up, he took a deep breath, his hands held behind his back. 

A notification pinged in his mind and suddenly, a message appeared in front of him. 

Communication Request: Magia

Accept?

[Yes] [No]

Hm. Does she seek to boast?  Niven asked himself. Curious, he pinged the [Yes] option and in front of him, a hologram of Magia slowly appeared into view. 

A very long time ago, Magia would have simply appeared in front of him herself, with her actual body, the moment he accepted the request. However, after Niven's fight with Alkoth which resulted in the latter god's true body being scarred, the Higher Powers placed a restriction on such a thing, and now that wasn't possible anymore. 

Magia's figure materialized in front of her, and already she had a grin on her face. 

"She truly is everything I wanted her to be," Magia said with a smirk. 

"Sacrificing the lives of those soldiers was definitely an interesting move," Niven replied calmly. "That disdain for human life that she has... I'll certainly take it into account next time." 

"Ugh," Magia rolled her eyes, "how long do you intend to keep this up for?" 

"What could you possibly mean?" 

"The tide of the war is changing," Magia told him. "With every day, Ash grows stronger and, even though we lost Lumina's champion for the time being, with Ash's EXP rate buffed so high, she will surely become stronger than any of your demons could hope to match. It may not happen this week, or this month, or this year, but eventually, she will become unstoppable." 

"Meh," Niven shrugged. "The humans have a saying I've grown rather fond of over the years. 'Everything worth trying is difficult'. What you say may be true, but that won't stop me from trying to take her down." 

"Fine, waste your time then, when we both already know how this is going to end," Magia said with a glare. "Quite sad, actually. Here I was considering allowing you to keep a couple of demons once I regain my old strength. If you don't concede though, well, I guess I'll remind you of what it's like to starve." 

"Hahaha," Niven laughed when he heard that. "Your tongue has always been good for two things. Licking your priests' dicks and tossing out threats. Never change, Magia." 

And, with that, he severed the connection between their respective realms, before Magia could get another word in, and the goddess faded away. That, of course, was calculated.

He knew quite well that such a thing would leave Magia punching the air. 

Chuckling lowly, Niven smiled as he looked back and saw a Wrath demon tear the head off of a Lust demon.  Vicious, indeed, he acknowledged,  but... Magia is right. The half-demon continues to grow stronger and... Perhaps it is time to exercise patience. 

He snapped his fingers and, from the trees to the left, a Nightmare emerged. His footsteps thudded loudly, the demon's size so prominent he made every demon around him seem like mere lizards, crawling from one place to another. 

It was the level 90 Wrath Nightmare that Ash had nearly killed, its battle wounds healed at this point, though its missing arm couldn't be restored. Beside him, was the high-level Gluttony Nightmare that he had kept out of the fights so far. Both of them walked up to him, with Niven smirking as he saw them approach. 

With time, Ash will truly become an unbeatable force. However, that does not mean that I cannot accumulate strength of my own. Perhaps I need to reevaluate my strategy. Evolution of the mind can only occur when you take stock of what hasn't worked and discard it from your arsenal. So, some analysis is in order, it would seem. 

He turned towards the crowd of demons behind him. The first step seemed clear enough, at least.

Gesturing at them, Niven snapped his fingers again and the Nightmares began slowly moving towards the horde. 

Fair enough then,  Niven shrugged.  Congratulations, Ash. You win. For now, anyway. 

And then, the Gluttony Nightmare's tongue lashed out and wrapped around a lower-level Wrath demon, picking it up and swallowing it whole. The Wrath Nightmare raised a leg and slammed it down onto a nearby Lust demon, crushing it effortlessly. 

You may have a higher ceiling than my soldiers, but you aren't the only one who can grow stronger, he thought, as both Nightmares wiped out the remaining nearby demons. 

Turning towards the pyramids, Niven walked up to them and broke them himself, closing the portal. 

What a fun time this war has been. Hopefully, I can keep it from ending for just a little while longer.

Ash

With one hand gripping Eliza's ass, another on her lower back, and their tongues dancing together, Ash felt the lust inside of her burning. It was a make-out session with no love or romance behind it, fueled by Ash's Demon Form on her end, and Eliza's raw desire on her end. It made a flame that grew steadily in Ash's heart as the two pulled back for a moment. 

"You're really into this, how long have you wanted me for?" Ash asked. 

"... Do not speak. This is simply the satisfaction of a need. There is no need to chat." 

"Less talking, more fucking. I can respect that," Ash shrugged. 

Then, she leaned to the right and traced a line up Eliza's neck with her tongue. As gently as she could, she bit down on it and Eliza hissed. 

Because this was far less... passionate than what Ash had done previously, her tail was already searching between Eliza's legs, eager to just get on with this. At the same time though, there was a slightly more rational part of her mind telling her to, at least, avoid doing that. She had already risked getting Yumi pregnant, she didn't need to risk the same with the literal Lord of this city. 

However, her tail moved like it had a mind of its own. Eliza still hadn't removed her clothes though, so, sadly, she couldn't do anything with it just yet. 

"I'd love to fuck you through your clothes, but I don't think you want to walk out of here with a hole in the back of your pants, do you?" 

"..." Wordlessly, Eliza gestured for Ash to move back, and then, she started to disrobe. 

To her credit, she kept herself in good shape. She wasn't exactly an athletic role model or anything, but her skin seemed soft and her body was mostly toned enough for Ash to find her marginally more attractive.

That mattered of course because the shame she'd surely feel after this, once she was back to normal, was hopefully going to be lessened a little by the fact that, at least, she had a hot body. 

"Well..." Ash said as Eliza stood in front of her, fully naked. "How about I treat you like the Lord you are?" 

And so, Ash knelt down in front of her. Right when someone knocked on the door. 

"Uhm," a young woman's voice spoke, "milady, are you inside?" 

"Hm? Yes, I will be out in- agh!" 

As Eliza has begun to respond, Ash's tongue touched her clit. Instantly, Eliza's body clenched and she cut herself off. Ash didn't stop. 

"Um, what was that?" 

"I... I will be out in a moment!" Eliza responded as Ash lifted her tongue up, dragging it over her lips. 

"Would you like me to prepare anything for you, milady?" 

"N-No, it's fine." 

"Oh, understood." 

With that, the person walked away as Ash held onto Eliza's thighs. 

"You could have just waited until I was done..." Eliza muttered with annoyance. 

"Sorry," Ash replied, "I had a good meal in front of me. Couldn't wait." 

Ash continued. She used her tongue like a paintbrush, gliding it on the woman's lips over and over again until eventually, far sooner than Ash had expected, Eliza was holding onto the back of her head and keeping her mouth closed to prevent moans from getting out. She came almost immediately, on Ash's tongue as it was still buried there. 

Breathing heavily, Eliza let go of her. 

A few moments later, even though Ash's pussy was still needy and her tail was practically begging for Eliza not to leave, the woman put her clothes back on and Ash resigned herself to just rubbing one out here, so she could get out of this form. 

"I-I see..." Eliza said. "I... You... You had a good performance." She turned towards the door and went to open it. Ash stopped her, putting her own demonic hand over Eliza's. 

"Now, I expect twice the reward," Ash whispered into her ear. "You know, for being so nice to you, and all." 

"... You will get something suitable, for... Your services." 

With that, Ash let her go. 

...  Okay, now, gotta take care of this, and then, well.... We'll see.
