Drip!
An echo of water spread after a drop of water fell on the wet ground, causing a noticeable vibration.
It was then he woke up.
'The hell?'
Ash found himself lying on the very ground, chains tied around his arms, keeping him bound there.
From what he could tell, he was in some kind of dream. A world where only shadows exist around him, and apparently, a chain keeps him bound to where he is.
A few moments earlier, he had just finished battling with the slime monsters and was running out of blood.
Was he dead?
The thought crossed his mind for a brief second.
'Is this some kind of feature from the system?'
Before he could get a response, he noticed the body of water forming around him.
As if having a life of its own, the water moved up his body from his feet. Getting closer to his thighs, it suddenly shapeshifted, taking the form of a human body.
It took on a lustrous shape, a slim waist, and massive boobs, so Ash was certain it was supposed to be a woman.
His theory was further confirmed when the body of water spoke.
"So this is my master? First time meeting you in person. I must say, you are quite handsome from this range; I am impressed."
Frowning, Ash asked,
"Who the hell are you? And what do you want?"
The water figure paused.
"There is a talking water right on top of you, and you show no sign of fear," she sighed, "That betrayal from your crush must have hit you hard then."
'What? Has this thing been spying on me or something? '
"Ah, okay, maybe this will help make our conversation easier."
Without any warning, water burst from the lady's body; In its place was an entirely different person.
This person was beautiful, radiating with authority and a sense of control. Her long pink hair was pulled back in a ponytail, and a black tail that resembled a monster protruded from her lower back.
Then, from her upper back were dark, glowing scales, reaching all the way to her tail.
In addition to that, she had two black horns sticking out of different sides of her head.
Looking at Ash with her mesmerizing blue eyes, she placed both her hands on his chest, licking her lips at her next words.
"So, is this form better for you then?"
Her voice was teasing.
But that wasn't all there was to her.
Other than the fact she was clearly not human, something else drew Ash's concern.
She was naked as well.
Boing~
A single movement caused the woman's breasts to bounce right in front of Ash before she cupped them with her hands, slowly massaging them.
"If memory serves me right, you were often staring at that girl's chest every chance you got. I don't quite get the appeal, but this should grab your attention, no?" the woman teased with a sly smile.
Ash felt a flush of embarrassment but quickly composed himself.
"Who are you?"
The woman released her breasts and sighed.
"Ahn, and here I thought you'd have figured it out by now." She placed one hand on her chest. "I am the Devil King, the embodiment of darkness herself."
"So the system was right; the Devil King is a woman."
The Devil King tilted her head to the side. "Humans thought otherwise? Such a shame. Perhaps it's because I never showed my true form. You'd think my voice alone would be enough to convince them."
"…"
"I can tell you have many questions, and as my master, it's only natural that I answer them all. But first…"
The Devil King grabbed Ash's hand, lifting his finger and guiding it toward her lips.
"What are you—"
"Demonic aura," she interrupted. "This energy was created by me to rival the holy light of the hero. It can only be wielded by those with pure demon blood. You're human; this power shouldn't exist in your mortal form."
As she released his finger, Ash noticed black veins pulsing between his middle finger and spreading to the others.
"Too much use of demonic aura can corrupt your body long before you overexert yourself," the Devil King continued, locking eyes with him. "Master, I'm sure you've noticed, but demonic energy increases your power the more you use it."
"Yes," Ash replied. "During my fight with the adventurers and the slimes, I noticed my reaction time increased significantly."
"It can also enhance any other aspect of your body—eyes, speed, whatever you desire. If I am to serve a master, I wish for them to be as strong as I was. As such, I want you to keep using demonic energy, ideally several times a day."
"You just said—"
"Yes, yes, I know, it's corrupting your body. Don't worry, I'll take care of that."
As soon as she let go of his hand, the Devil King moved downward, her breasts brushing against his body until she reached his legs. Her fingers slipped into the waistband of his trousers, preparing to pull them down when Ash spoke, his voice tinged with embarrassment.
"What the hell are you doing?"
The Devil King placed one hand on Ash's thigh and looked up at him.
"What am I doing?" She giggled. "I'm trying to extract the excess demonic aura from your body, silly master. Don't worry, it won't take long."
'In my legs?' Ash thought, clearly confused.
His eyes widened in shock as the Devil King pulled down his pants, causing his massive cock to spring free and slap her across the face.
"My, my, things do look different up close. You're… really huge," she murmured, her eyes fixed on it.
Clenching his teeth, Ash couldn't move a muscle, his arms and legs still chained to who-knows-what.
"Relax, there's no use fighting it. It's for your own good." The Devil King wrapped her hand around his shaft, drooling at the sight. "I promise I'm only doing this to help you grow stronger. Just let me, and you'll feel good."
'She wants to jack me off to remove the demonic energy? What's the logic in that?'
The longer her hand lingered on his cock, the larger it grew, soon covering her entire face. Her cheeks flushed red, and her heated breath teased his hardening member.
Ash expected to see malice in her expression, fitting for someone called the embodiment of evil. Instead, she looked… delighted.
She stroked his cock slowly, her tongue hovering just above the tip, letting saliva drip down to lubricate it.
Neither spoke. Ash was too stunned, and the Devil King was focused on her task.
