The dark divine energy burned Asmodeus in a violent, corrupted fla. Yet he refused to scream and draw attention from the other won. He endured the agony of being eaten from the inside, the divine energy gouging deep into his physical and spiritual bodies.
"Ngh.... Hrrk...."
A thick and putrid flow of blood vomited from his lips the mont it touched the wooden table, lting the entire thing. It created a foul, sour stench while sizzling through anything it touched, but after being exposed to the air, it soon vanished.
'I feel weak...' Asmodeus leaned over Levia, but his arms beca weak, trembling slightly as he fell onto her soft body. He closed his tired eyes, cushioned by her soft and spongy breasts, causing the knight to let out a low groan, but her eyes only flickered. "Are you alright... Levia?"
Even though his body felt like it scread in pain and began falling apart, Asmodeus only cared for her. In the past, Levia made a great mistake, but from the mont she swore that oath to him to him. She never broke her vow to him or acted like in the past.
"Haa... it feels like my insides are on fire. The taste is sour like rotting at..."
[You idiot...]
[That divine fla will keep burning and never assimilate into your power! It will hurt you, make you suffer... all because I failed you!]
Asmodeus couldn't show weakness because it wouldn't be only this lovely woman crying in his mind who would suffer. Leviathan and Serena would never be able to cope if he succumbed to this paltry power.
'I won't fall, nor will I submit... Serena, do not bla yourself. It was my choice and if I had to consu even more to save you.' He stopped for a mont, feeling sothing twisting his core. Most likely the divine power and pain she ntioned. 'I would happily do the sa!'
[Idiot... Idiot... what if you don't get lucky next ti?!]
'Ah... how blessed am I? A demon king who won the love of his goddess!'
[Don't make jokes... I will Descend to that place just to slap you!]
'Co, I will throw you down and take you right then...' Asmodeus didn't want to let Serena worry, but even though he tried. She could feel his pain and thoughts. Their link felt closer than anyone but him and Yumiko.
[...]
Serena knew he was lying and that his teeth biting together revealed his lie. Yet she couldn't call him out and didn't deny her feelings.
It was never her intention, but the more she t him and spent ti with him, those barriers that blocked her emotions and made her remain a divine being shattered. Now, he was nothing more than a divine fox in love with a demon king, as he said.
[I will give you more of my power—]
'Stop right there!' His mind was stern, the voice reaching Serena like a warning, causing her to gasp. 'I will refuse, you know I would never accept it. This energy inside , I will defeat it on my own! You need your power to help kill that bastard!'
[You are such an unfair man... so many other won, yet you refuse my gifts and love.]
'Oh? Has the goddess learned how to be jealous now.'
[Fool... take care of Levia, I am alright now... but promise you won't give up if it gets too tell hard. I will summon you here. No matter what I need to do, I will tear that filthy energy from your body and save you!]
For a mont, he struggled to respond, not because of pain but because of the words and emotions he felt from Serena. Although Asmodeus teased her often, he half doubted if she loved him as a man or if it was related to his mother...
'I can't ignore you anymore... My beloved goddess, I swear to you.'
[You?! Don't speak in such a way!]
Her voice trembled his low and confident tone with a slight tinge of seduction. The poor goddess seed weak when he would whisper like this in her ear. She seed to shudder while the low vibrations were pleasant to her ears.
'Adorable woman, I am going to make you mine for sure~ just wait a little longer.'
[N-No... I am a goddess and have no lust! You know that, right?! I can't...]
"Hahahaha!" Asmodeus couldn't help but laugh out loud because of how lovely her voice beca. Serena increased her pitch before she blocked off his communications. Her slight sniffle let him know she must have been crying.
"Well.." He gazed down at the lovely demon paladin now breathing gently beneath him, the scar across her chest healing as she returned to her reborn form. 'I feel like that bastard's power can break our link and revert them to being normal humans... I don't know why it makes so angry since I can make a new link... No, I know why and it really pisses off!'
Jealousy, anger, loss and frustration that such a tiny amount of divine power could sever his bond with Leviathan almost completely. 'I hate this filthy energy!'
'I want to kill him... to go against the gods, no matter what the cost!' A feeling of dark, filthy desires began to amass inside him. There was a way, and he also knew that it would be sothing he couldn't return from.
"Would I fail and beco a puppet to my desires..." His hand slid through the silky black hair of Levia, yet his lips ford a twisted smile. "Yet, I don't feel like I will lose my gamble... Since I only have lust right now. Shouldn't I awaken the rest and fight that bastard in a dirty and unholy way?"
"Would Serena be angry..." He couldn't help but shake his head and mutter to himself. "No, of course she would. Because I would beco sothing that goes against this world and the gods if I do this."
His plans began to form. However, he shook his head, instead focusing on the beautiful woman beneath him, her lovely eyes slowly opening while fluttering her lashes; a dazed look transford into a shocked reaction. It felt like she never expected to see his face first or the fact that he was lying atop her naked body.
"Nngh...? W-what..." Levia struggled to speak, her throat dry and tongue stuck to her lips as she blushed at Asmodeus. His hands held a cup of water, gently allowing her to sip and wet her throat.
"There, do you feel better now?" He gazed down a gentle yet strange flicker of light in his dull blue eyes.
'Master looks different... his hands keep touching , different from before...' She couldn't help but feel a sense of pleasure no matter where he touched her. Asmodeus caressed her cheeks, the cold yet smooth skin pleasant to touch while she closed her eyes, maybe to savour the mont.
"Levia, you sacrificed yourself for ..." He paused, his hand brushing the soft hair from her face while looking at her. "How can I ever repay your loyalty and kindness?"
"I... I am... a demon... and you are my King... Haa..." She couldn't bear to look into his eyes. Her cheeks turned red from how she reacted to his touch. Levia tried to stop him, noticing her erect nipples and the warmth spreading through her body.
"Am I just your master or just a King, Levia?" He whispered to her, his low voice echoing in her ears. The way he spoke made Levia's mind grow blank, and before she could react, she found herself speaking the truth.
"You are the man I craved, even before... I wanted to betray my goddess to have you, so she punished for my jealousy and madness."
Levia covered her lips, the words that ca out shocking her. Yet, she knew they were the truth, the reason her Goddess abandoned her in the past and used her to attack him at that mont. She couldn't deny anything after becoming his paladin.
Asmodeus sighed. 'I never expected her to be so honest and pure. So that's why she did those things.' Even though he knew, he kept smiling while looking down at her.
"So you are jealous of Yumiko and the other won? You wanted to yourself... is that it?" He asked her with a deep, low tone. He couldn't stop himself from adding a hint of his arrogance and possessive desire to his voice, making Levia shiver at his words.
"You know the answer, Master... that kiss wasn't an order from the goddess. From the mont we t I found you to be different, I wanted you to be mine."
Her eyes narrowed before finally extending a hand to touch his cheek, the firm muscles and smooth skin causing her to stroke them. "It was Alicia, at first... she got in the way, and it made crazy when Erika and Yumiko appeared."
'I can't believe she's being so honest...' He didn't order her or use his authority as demon king to do this. The only thing he did was stop holding back the scent of lust his body produced after accepting the sin. 'Maybe, this scent... does more than make won wet and horny.'
"I see..." Asmodeus didn't want to punish her that much anymore. He still felt angry at her actions, and the sight of Levia made him feel conflicted. "Levia, I won't say you did the right thing, but I won't deny what you did."
His hand stroked along her soft lips, pushing and squishing them with his thumb. Her sticky strands of saliva stuck to it, creating bridges of silvery drool as he pulled away. "Because you did those things out of your love and obsessive feelings towards , right?"
Yet before she could answer, he slowly leaned closer, enjoying her breath blowing against his face as she beca excited. Then, with a brief smile, kissed her.
There was a reason he gave her the na of a demon related to the sin of Envy. He would awaken the sin, sleeping deep within his soul with her help. Right now, he only had lust, but after this... there would be envy.
The various scenes of defeat in his mories from Serena, now Asmodeus understood.
After he clashed with the pope, maybe this is what Serena feared. Now, his goal was to unlock each of the seven sins within him. Asmodeus didn't know why they all slept within his soul, however... if the mories of his seven failures were sothing to go by.
He knew he probably failed in those lives due to only having a single cardinal sin.
To fight against phisto, he needed them all!
