Chapter 75 Old Friends

Name:First Demonic Dragon Author:
Exedra dragged his gaze over each of the newcomers present.

"He's even more delicious looking than I'd imagined!"

A lithe looking woman gazed at Exedra with evident desire.

She had golden blond hair and a pair of bright red eyes.

On top of her head were two long brown horns and behind her back swung a thin tail with a spade as it's tip.

'A succubus…' Exedra eyed the woman in front of him curiously.

While he could feel some sort of attraction towards her, it wasn't sexual.

It was more… familial?

"Lusamine! How many times do I have to tell you to keep those kinds of thoughts inside!"

"I'd like to keep him inside. Of me that is. "

"Perverted imp."

The woman sitting next to Lusamine and reprimanding her was a true beauty.

Wearing an elegant black and white dress, the woman had dark brown skin that was almost gray, a pair of long pointed ears and ash gray hair.

Her bright golden eyes contained a mischievous and yet regal glint that made her feel slightly childlike.

'A dark elf?'

Dark elves were extremely uncommon.

Only 1 in ten million elven babies would be born as a dark elf and even if one was born, they were killed immediately.

To regular elves, dark elves are heralds of catastrophe and seen as a bad omen.

The only way to avert the disaster is to kill the child before it has a chance to grow and bring ruin.

This was usually a rule that was followed without exception so to see a dark elf walking around was like finding a thousand dollars on the ground.

Exedra immediately became curious about this woman's story and what could have possibly led to her working with demons.

"Fuck off Eris! Just because your husband can't satisfy you doesn't mean the rest of us can't be satisfied either!" Lusamine growled.

'Y-you bitch! I told you that in confidence!' Eris quickly put her head down and did not say another word, signaling Lusamine had won that argument.

"Besides…" she turned her gaze back towards Exedra who was watching them with a bored expression.

"He hasn't said he dislikes it has he?"

The only reason Exedra hadn't voiced his opinion was because these guests were clearly close with his mother and he didn't want to offend friends of hers since she did not have many.

But he was quickly reaching the limit of his patience.

Rolling his eyes, Exedra then glanced at the man who was standing silently in the corner.

He had pale white skin with a scar going over his left eye, and a full head of snow white hair.

The lower half of his face was covered by a golden mask that resembled a snarling animal.

His body was decorated with various golden weapons and he wore simple sleeveless red and black armor that made him look like a shinobi.

Their eyes met and neither of them bothered to speak, they just silently analyzed eachother seemingly trying to gain understanding of the man in front of them.

'Intriguing.' Exedra frowned slightly when for the first time, he could not see the aura of someone's emotions.

It was as if the man wasn't even there.

'Analyze.'

'Interesting indeed…' Exedra thought inwardly before taking a seat in front of the group.

The three visitors eyed him curiously.

His steps were regal and purposeful, and while his movements appeared to be leisure, the three evolved beings in the room recognized that his body was very tense and even though his eyes were closed, he was constantly on guard.

'He doesn't trust us.'

Lusamine, Zheng and Eris each had the same thought as they watched Exedra sit down.

'The resemblance is faint but it's there.. but his personality is the complete opposite.' Zheng's interest was growing by the second.

'W-what should we do to get him to trust us? He'll never listen to us like this!' Eris was inwardly nervous about how negotiations would go.

It was absolutely crucial that Exedra listened to them!

'Lord Asmodeus was so carefree and unrestrained but his son seems to be more calculating and composed… it's pretty sexy.'

Lusamine unconsciously spread her legs, hoping Exedra would take a peak up her skirt only to frown when he didn't even glance at her.

Yara finally began to make introductions. "Son.. these are old friends of mine… they were three of your father's closest aides in his army."

Exedra showed no reaction to this news and continued sitting down with his eyes closed.

Expecting this to some extent, Yara continued her introductions.

"Over there is Zheng, he was your father's shadow and went almost everywhere with him." For the first time, Zheng moved as he offered Exedra a slight nod.

"This is Lusamine. She's a little.."

"Sexy? Enticing? Intoxicating?" Lusamine offered.

"Whorish." Yara finished. "But she was your father's best warrior and he treated her like his own sister."

"Pleased to meet you sweetheart." Lusamine spread her legs a little wider so that if Exedra simply opened his eyes he would see her bare pussy.

It seemed she didn't even hear the comment Yara made about her being a whore and continued trying to seduce the young dragon in front of her.

"Does anyone else smell the harbor? I think some sailors may have pulled in a fresh catch." Eris looked around and continually sniffed the air.

A vein bulged in Lusamine's head and Yara suppressed a snicker.

"Pointy eared bitch!"

"Cheap slut."

"Castout!"

"Winged prostitute."

"You dare!-"

"Okay!" Yara finally intervened. The dragoness had grown a slight headache. She'd missed her friends so much she'd forgotten how badly they used to argue.

Despite that, she knew that if either of them was threatened by an outside force they would be the first ones to show up and defend the other.

An endearing relationship for sure, but a complicated one as well.

Blood couldn't make the two any closer.

"This loveable yet argumentative dark elf is Eris and she was your father's lead strategist."

"It's an honor." Eris lowered her head and offered Exedra a slight bow.

For the first time, Exedra opened his eyes and all three of the new individuals marveled at the beauty and depth of his gaze.

Eris found his eyes rather comforting.

She understood just how much a person had to go through to have eyes like his.

Eyes like theirs.

"So… you were the aides of my father." Exedra finally spoke after several minutes of uncomfortable silence.

Lusamine shivered when she heard his voice and found it to be just as perfect as the rest of him. "That's right. We were by his side for over 200 years."

The dragon nodded seemingly in understanding before his next words broke the light atmosphere. "Then how the hell are any of you still alive."

"If my father's final battle was as brutal as I've been told, each of you should be a rotting corpse by now. So tell me.."

Exedra leaned forward and his eyes began to glow their distinct red and purple.

"Why do you live while he is dead in the ground?"
