Chapter 112 Homebound

In two days, the city of Hado had undergone monumental changes.

Upon awakening, the humans turned demons found themselves filled with strength and energy.

But most importantly, there was overwhelming gratitude.

Suddenly their minds were filled with nothing but positive thoughts for the man who'd gifted them an entirely new life.

So what if he killed over half the city?

So what if he forced men, women, and children to drink his blood and abandon their humanity?

It was the best thing that had ever happened to them!

Since the lifespan of demons was thrice as long as that of humans, the elderly returned to their youth.

Children received huge boosts to their magical potential and were now more excited than ever to join the new army that was being formed.

One of the lord's own wives was even acting as an instructor for those that had never held a weapon before.

Another interesting fact was that possibly due to Exedra's influence or some greater factor, everyone transformed into succubi or incubi.

There was now an entire city bustling with the two incredibly rare species.

Because they were turned by such a powerful demon like lord Abbadon, their blood was incredibly pure and as such they were considerably stronger than others of the same species.

Due to the complete upheaval of the old society, citizens had given a new name to their vibrant city seated underneath a purple sky.

Luxuria.

-

Currently, Exedra was flying high in the sky, looking over the city that was now his.

It wasn't much compared to the castles of Antares but it belonged to him all the same.

There was a certain sense of pride that arose from knowing that he'd found his family a suitable home.

'My lord, it's ready.'

'I'll be there shortly.'

Exedra tucked in his wings and flew down towards his balcony manor.

Upon landing he headed directly for a room on the second floor where inside he found a nicely decorated interior and three succubus maids.

They were a set of triplet sisters named Tita, Rita, and Nita.

Among the twenty or so personal working in the manor, these were among the only ones whose names he could remember due to their similarities.

They were all completely identical, with each of them having extremely large breasts paired with silky white hair and red eyes.

Their creamy white skin and childlike faces made them all look quite young, even if they were all in their twenties.

Their only differences were in their personalities.

Tita was the oldest and acted as the mature leader.

Rita was the middle child and was a bit shy.

Nita was the youngest and a massive pervert.

"We are the maids in charge of caring for the lord's guest." Tita spoke.

Exedra looked around the room and saw that they had taken great care to decorate the room nicely and make sure that it was comfortable.

"I'll return in a moment." Exedra told them.

He used his new warp skill and a black portal opened up before him.

The maids watched as he walked through before the black portal crackled and disappeared.

Only a few seconds passed before Nita said what was on all of their minds.

"…I'm wet."

Her sisters said nothing but they were in similar states as well.

-

"I just don't understand!"

"I can't do this with you right now!"

Pythias and Eris were currently arguing in the middle of Asmodeus' room.

After several nights of Eris being distant and avoidant with him, he'd finally had enough and barged into the room of the fallen demon lord to ask why she was being so distant.

Eris of course did not know the reason herself and when cornered about her sudden change, she could only react negatively.

"What is going on with you? Do you hold some sort of deeper feelings for this man?!" He accused, as he pointed at the still unconscious primordial demon.

"What? He is simply my lord and the one I have sworn to serve and nothing more!" Eris was fuming. "Get away from me, I do not wish to see you!"

Those words seemed to send the death knight over the edge and in the next moment he'd grabbed Eris by her neck and pulled her close.

"It seems that because I have been kind to you that you have forgotten your place." He squeezed tighter and tighter, cutting off more of her oxygen and causing her to see stars.

"I am your husband. You are my possession and as such you will not speak to me in that manner." He growled.

Bang!

Suddenly, the door burst open and a pissed off Lusamine was revealed.

Zheng was a little farther behind her wearing an equally furious expression.

"What the fuck did I just hear you say?" The succubus flicked her wrist and her massive red scythe appeared in her hand.

Not even waiting for his answer, Lusamine shot forward to behead the man who was holding her friend by the neck.

Pythias hurriedly threw Eris out of the way and summoned a large spectral greatsword to meet her blow.

Clang!

Neither weapon hit their intended foe as Belphegor himself appeared between the two warriors and stopped both blades with his bare hands.

"You ingrates… you would dare.. IN THE ROOM WHERE MY BROTHER SLUMBERS?!"

Belphegor's hate fueled roar shattered all of the glass in the room like clockwork.

His pressure was more than enough to force all of the weaker beings present to their knees.

"M-my lord, I-" Pythias stammered.

"I did not give you permission to speak, worm." Belphegor's mood was beyond foul and he was in no mood for bootlicking or flimsy excuses.

While the original seven demon lords are not particularly close, that could not be said for Belphegor and Asmodeus.

Because they were the most relaxed and carefree out of all their siblings, they found a great many things to bond over.

As such, the sin of sloth would not stand for his brother's room to be desecrated like this.

The pressure placed on Pythias increased tenfold, forcing him to cough up gobs of thick, black blood.

"Killing the four of you would not be enough to forgive this disrespect… I will eviscerate your entire existence!"

Just as Belphegor was about to end the lives of all present without question, a large black portal opened up and a tall handsome demon walked through.

"You? Why are you here?" Belphegor asked in surprise.

'Exedra?' Lusamine's eyes widened in shock.

'He feels… stronger?' Zheng noticed.

'Who the hell is that bastard? Why does he feel like one of the kings?' Pythias hadn't seen Exedra since his body reconstruction so he had absolutely no idea who was standing before him.

Although looking at his handsome face filled him with an unfathomable anger.

Eris was in too much shock to think properly. As soon as her eyes fell upon the man, she felt her heart begin to beat wildly like a thundering drum and a dull heat began to spread throughout her body.

Exedra ignored the inquiry from his uncle and dragged his gaze around the room.

Broken glass, cracks on the floor and there was even the scent of blood in the air.

Finally, his eyes landed on his father who was resting peacefully on the bed, completely oblivious to the havoc around him.

"I have no particular feelings for my father but even I know he deserves a better room than this."

He finally turned around and stared unflinchingly at his uncle.

"It's a good thing I'm here to take him with me, at the very least he'll be kept in a clean room."
