Demon Lord: Erotic Adventure in Another World

He stroked the smooth skin of Yumiko, enjoying the feeling before he couldn\'t resist slapping her ass that peeked from the sheets, leaving his handprint.

Ryuji climbed out of bed and wore the training outfit that Alan prepared and left the room, taking one last glance at the sleeping fox, before leaving with his lips curled into a smug grin.

The hallway seemed busier than usual.

Maids and other servants rushed around—when they noticed him, they gave a respectful bow before scurrying off.

What\'s going on? He thought to himself before rushing to Erika\'s room.

Erika\'s white door wasn\'t locked. So when he tried the handle, it clicked open—her scent filled the room with a calming lavender and cotton-flavoured aroma.

"Erika?" Ryuji called out while stepping further inside.

"Nn...."

The beautiful blonde lay wrapped in her silk sheets like a Greek goddess. She wiped her eyes before grasping her sheet tight and rolling over to ignore Ryuji\'s intrusion.

He noticed a few bruises on her arms and shoulders, realising how difficult her practice must have been the day before.

I have to train harder.

This ignited his desire to become stronger. He imagined a situation where he was left unable to protect the ones he cared for. He stepped towards the bed and sat down at the edge. "Erika...?"

"I\'m tired...."

Ryuji wrapped his arms around Erika and pulled her into his embrace.

Despite training so hard, she smelt like honey, her silky hair draped over Ryuji\'s arm as she rubbed her sleepy eyes, blinking several times with a lovely yawn. "It\'s so early..."

"It\'s already morning...."

Erika groaned while rolling to the other side, pulling away from Ryuji. "Go back to bed..."

Ryuji rolled on top of her and smirked. "Shouldn\'t we practice?"

"Ryuji....." Erika turned her head, her face blushing when he made his suggestion. "It\'s so early..."

He leaned close to her lovely face, kissing her soft cheek while enjoying her acting shy. "Did you think of something lewd?"

"W-what...?" Her cheeks flustered red as she avoided eye contact with Ryuji, who felt her heart pounding through her chest.

"What did you think about me, Erika?"

She sighed and surrendered to her desires while meeting his gaze. "... I thought of you kissing me."

"What else?"

"I wanted to feel your hands roam my body," Erika whispered.

Her eyes narrowed, closing with a pleasant smile as Ryuji\'s hands copied what she said, though not sexual; instead, he used weak wind magic to create light vibrations on each fingertip to help massage her tough and aching muscles.

Erika\'s eyes opened wide—she gasped from the warm vibrations flowing through her body, releasing her pent-up tension. "I thought of... many things...."

"Like what?" Ryuji asked curiously, enjoying the way she relaxed while he caressed her sore limbs.

"I thought of your tongue, lapping between my thighs until I could no longer take it... And then you would spread my legs open and kiss me there."

"That\'s not too bad if you can beat me in today\'s practice just once. I\'ll do that for you, but if you lose, then it\'s you that will kneel between my legs."

Erika\'s mouth twitched, but her desire to win burned bright, overriding her fear of losing. "Hmph.... pervert! Let\'s get ready. We have a long day ahead of us."

They separated, and Erika grabbed a silk robe walked past Ryuji and opened the door before glancing back with a stern face, her eyes narrow and lips pressed together with a slight frown. "Don\'t peek!"

"You know I will."

∫$тαу?-ս+ƿ#ԁа?тεɗ-ԝί!†н?-

"Just wait outside...." Erika stepped out of the room, which made Ryuji\'s eyebrows raise and his face pulled into a smug grin. Since she asked with such a cute voice, he behaved and instead stretched his body, preparing for the new menu that Alan seemed to have worked on.

***

Not long after, Erika stepped out of the shower wearing a light pair of brown pants and a grey tunic. Though it lacked sex appeal, Ryuji felt she looked cute in anything.

"Stop gawking. We should hurry to breakfast. Where is Yumi?" Erika wondered, her eyes looking at Ryuji\'s face, looking for an answer.

"She\'s still sleeping. I don\'t think we will see her for a long time... Ahem..." Ryuji cleared his throat while following Erika to the door—she turned back with a sharp gaze and half-frown before opening the door and leaving.

"Hm, pervert."

"Did you want to be the one? Should I wait?"

Erika rolled her eyes and shook her head as they walked along the hall towards the dining area, where Alan waited on his own. The maids seemed to have been waiting for them to arrive. Only setting the table for breakfast the moment they appeared.

"Alan, did you wait long?" Ryuji noticed dark circles, and Alan\'s skin looked a little flakey. His once healthy skin dulled from fatigue.

"Not at all."

Alan sat across the table from Ryuji while Erika sat next to him. "Where is everyone else?" She wondered, looking around and noticing the unusual emptiness of the large dining room.

"There\'s a lot to do, and somebody seemed to have let his little fox scream and bark all night, keeping many of the maids awake until dawn." Alan\'s eyes turned towards Ryuji, who faked ignorance and shrugged while eating the scrambled eggs, which had a crispy, salty texture.

"The food is fresh... delicious." Ryuji hadn\'t realised how the usual taste and smell of the food had improved from the previous meals. He didn\'t want to take the blame for his night with Yumiko, and Alan\'s bitter smile told him that he won.

"Well, enjoy your breakfast. Today\'s training is the start of your two-week regime."

"Two weeks? Is there a reason it\'s only two weeks, Sir Alan?" Erika asked in a polite tone while she cut her bacon into tiny pieces and scattered them over her scrambled eggs.

"Mostly because the first match of the competition is in just over two weeks, and because of my niece\'s interference, you will be paired with two knights. Thus, in the two weeks, these knights will join you."

Ryuji tilted his head in confusion—Alan met his gaze and smiled. "You will most likely be fine for the first few battles, but the enemy is full of tricks and disgusting tactics, from honey traps to drugs and murder."

"How come this tournament is so important?" Ryuji wondered.

"It\'s not exactly important to the Kingdom itself. The same can\'t be said about the other nobles and powers involved. They want to prove their might and have knights or heroes indebted to them. It\'s a dark world, especially for the weaker heroes who cannot protect themselves from the dirty plots of that world."

"Don\'t worry, Alan, we won\'t die or lose."

Alan smirked and shook his head. "We should get going. You two should understand that life isn\'t a game. If you don\'t take the enemy seriously, then death may await you even when you return." He drank the last of his grape juice before signalling to the maids, who started clearing the table. "It is not that I worry about you directly, but their plots... I have experienced them myself.

It\'s hard to endure that kind of... failure."

Ryuji realised Alan spoke from experience, a small twitch on the corner of his lip as he mentioned his words of caution. "I\'ll be careful."

"Good... I will arrange for those knights to join us in the next few days. Though you will probably already know them, today you only need to train with Kathryn and work on bringing out your strengths to the limit."

"What do you mean?" Ryuji asked—Alan\'s lips curled into a calm smile as he answered.

"There\'s no point in forcing you to practice magic or other skills to the limits because, at your current stage, you have not reached the best state for that. Instead, you will fight, fight, fight and fight until even you. The monkey with unlimited stamina collapses!"

Alan\'s plan wasn\'t wrong.

Ryuji\'s strength was endless, and his recovery time was almost non-existent. However, it seemed to be so excessive that they didn\'t even know his limits. Rather, this kind of practice was something Ryuji felt grateful for—he could find his bottom line, helping him in future battles in the dungeon or against those who would hurt his women.

With this, Alan left the room, while a plate with some food on it suddenly became empty.

Sariel sat beside Ryuji and started eating the leftover bacon, her eyes filled with stars as it seemed she really liked the smoked meat. "That man\'s face looks like he is plotting things against you, master!" She stated.

Ryuji patted her head and laughed while handing over more bacon to shut her up. "Why don\'t you eat a few more?"

"Heh... Thank you!"

Ryuji shook his head, realising Sariel was an oddball like him—perhaps a little more.

He found it a little strange that she used her mimic ability to look like a human, a thin black dress covering her slim body and adorable face, with that fluffy pink hair tied in twin tails. It felt like she took the best aspects of Liana, Erika and Yumiko and put them into one person...

Is this little demon trying to seduce me with this?
