Asmodeus watched the sway of Aki's exposed flesh, her soft buttocks almost enchanting him as she constantly glared back at him, aware of his lustful gaze. 'She reminds me of Kathryn... but is more of my type.' He felt a little irritated because Yumiko left his arms to speak to her 'sister', but he wanted the best for all his women, so he allowed it.
Suddenly, a soft tap hit his behind, breaking his focus, and when he turned to face who hit him, it was Erika with her hand resting on him with a pout on her lips.
"Don't make new women. Instead, look at me, okay?" Her whisper caused his back to tingle as she leaned against him—it was rare for Erika to show jealousy or discomfort, so instantly, he switched gears and focused on her.
'That's right, I don't need to keep looking... Even if I am a demon king of lust and sex, the ones I truly desire are already beside me.'
"Erika!" Asmodeus called out while his movements stopped, causing Velvet and Vinea to turn to gaze in his direction while the knights also peeked. His voice was deep and husky, yet they all knew he did this voice because they loved it and found it sexy.
'He must have upset Erika...' Vinea thought to herself with a wry smile and let out a sigh.
'This Horny bastard wants to fuck that fox with black hair...' Velvet thought to herself with a bitter smile, but her eyes flashed with a jealous and possessive light.
In reality, Vinea and Velvet held a similar response to his actions, maybe because they were family, rather Vinea idolised Velvet growing up, so much that her demon form was the most aggressive and alluring visually but looked similar to Velvet, making them look like sisters.
'Ah, ~ darling is getting aroused. Will these filthy foxes be able to endure his lust? Should I drag him into a monster cave or bandit nest and fuck him senseless so he only looks at me?!'
Liana's mind was the most in sync with Asmodeus. Their lust and desire linked the moment he started to get aroused, she knew. That's why she didn't get jealous but thought of ways to take advantage of this situation and also have fun with her beloved.
Be it killing or sex, she always wanted to do it together with him.
Erika could feel the gaze from the women behind, but the strongest was Yumiko who walked beside her newly found sister with their arms linked. Yet she kept looking back at Asmodeus with eyes like she was lost and lonely.
'After all, Yumiko is cute when she misses our darling.'
The two of them became great friends from being almost enemies at the start. Erika often remembered that cold night when Yumiko had sex with Asmodeus in the fairy forest, and she couldn't stop herself from masturbating.
Yet now that became a fond memory thanks to how gentle and accepting Yumiko was accepting her as a second lover.
Her coldness was more apparent, and her love for Asmodeus grew deeper each day. Erika couldn't help but hope the pair's love was successful.
Erika would often think of Yumiko's relationship with Asmodeus to be like the sun, so she only wished to become his moon, quietly giving him a place to relax and soothe himself when tried.
"Are you alright, Erika?" Asmodeus peered down at her face. He could sense her worries and complex thoughts about himself and Yumiko.
He kissed her head, wrapping an arm around her shoulder, whispering while smiling. "You have a large place in my heart, too. Don't worry about others, and please remember your happiness."
Instantly, her cheeks reddened.
Erika was weak at this kind of flirting; it wasn't lewd but very embarrassing. After she took a life for the first time, her heart fell into darkness, yet it was always Asmodeus who came to pull her out. The same as she called Yumiko his brilliant sun, she knew Asmodeus was hers.
"I just... thought about the past...."
"Phew..."
"Nn~ everything, you can have everything if you never leave me..." A whisper, like the soft sound of the gentle breeze."
"... Erika... That's unfair." Asmodeus didn't know what he could say, only hugging her tightly in response.
He felt he won at life with such wonderful women that he could never possibly deserve. All of them were important to him, more than he could explain with words, and it frustrated him because he couldn't express his feelings well.
Even Erika couldn't handle his muscular arms anymore because her eyes began to flutter as she started falling asleep—it was the first time in a while she felt so secure. His scent, aura and gentle words filled with passion and affection allowed her to relax completely at last.
Asmodeus worried at first but soon heard her gentle snoring, causing the elves to look back with stunned gazes to see a sleeping maiden in the extremely tall male's arms.
'Well... I can only take it step by step, until the day comes they all know how much I need them.' He smiled at Erika's sleeping face, but the look of a Demon King's genuine smile filled with love caused a sudden change for the elves and female knights able to see him.
"Woah... the boss looks so charming, he can smile like that?!" Fredrika's voice echoed, causing Fuuka, Liana, Vinea, Ciela and Alice to look. However, Alice seemed the most affected as her mouth opened and her eyes widened in complete shock.
"He can make such a face? Was the demon king not a being void of such passionate and warm feelings?" Alice muttered to herself, while looking at Velvet to her side, the blushing cheeks and maiden-like face making her realise that the test she started was probably over.
'He... already made that Velvet fall this far?!'
Sariel watched them all from above, her beautiful wings fluttering with long pink hair. She seemed full of happiness. "That's it! I only want my master to be filled with happiness; that's why Sariel will bring you together... Because Sariel loves everyone."
The most affected by his smile were those who had seen glimpses of it before but also saw his fake and broken mask smiling in the past.
Yumiko's tails gently swayed as she returned her gaze to her sister Yuina, a strange feeling and memories of her previous life flowing steadily into her mind and heart the longer he held the lovely blonde fox's hand.
'To think you gave me your body in your dying moments. Yumiko Inukai, our souls became one, so from now on, I will be you, and you are me. I will protect your dear little sister and family as if they were my own, I swear!' Find adventures at mvl
She felt a strange feeling as her heart pounded from seeing Asmodeus smile, and thinking of their past months together, she realised just how deeply she adored him, but that love wasn't just hers... the one that fell for him first.
It was the princess and the other half of her soul, Yumiko Inukai.
'I see... Did you love him too? I'm so happy we could love the same man.'
At that moment, Yumiko's body trembled, and it felt like something cracked and finally... fell into place; all the time, she felt insecure and worried.
Somehow, she felt confident those feelings would never return, and as the huge Tori gates appeared, she could only speak in the beast's language1.
"I am home."
Finally... the souls of Yumiko Sakurai and Yumiko Inukai became one and accepted their life in this world as Yumiko Inukai, the demon king's saint and a second goal.
To become his genuine empress, with the love of two women.
