Chapter 88: The Devil and The Knights [3]

The next day, as the sun started to set and the forest grew darker, all the party members gathered around a campfire.

There was still time before the storm arrived.

"So, there's still nothing out there, huh?"

Maximus said, nodding his head.

"It's very eerie. I feel like there's something out there watching us, but I can't pinpoint it."

Elfie said, scratching her chin.

The most significant transformation within the party had been hers.

In just a few days, she had evolved from a shy girl into a confident individual, while her master had undergone the opposite transition, from confident to paranoid.

Lloyd had become increasingly dependent on Elfie, a dynamic she rather enjoyed.

"That's not good."

Alice remarked, taking a seat beside Kaisen. Beside him sat Sable, with Maximus beside her.

"Let's discuss this tomorrow morning. If we still can't find anything, then perhaps we should consider heading back. It seems there's nothing here for us to find, right?"

Maximus suggested.

'Again with that? There's something off about that couple.'

Kaisen thought to himself as he glanced at the pair beside him.

He was certain they were concealing something.

"Well, we're already here anyway. We might as well complete the mission now."

Sable countered her fiancé, locking eyes with him.

"You—"

"Let's discuss this tomorrow."

Kaisen interrupted Maximus before another argument erupted.

Surprisingly, both the man and the woman fell silent, as if completely obeying Kaisen's command.

'What the heck?'

Even Kaisen himself was taken aback by their sudden compliance.

"Yeah, let's decide that tomorrow."

Maximus agreed, following Kaisen's lead.

"That's settled, then."

Kaisen declared, clapping his hands together.

"Maximus-san, Sable-san, can I talk to you guys privately? It's about the hole we dug today. I think it was too shallow."

"Y-yes..."

Maximus reluctantly walked forward to pick up the makeshift shovel they had fashioned from wood.

But then he heard something that stopped him in his tracks.

"Your muscles are sore, Sable. Let me give you a massage while Maximus digs the ground."

Sable shuddered as Kaisen's devil tongue worked its magic on her.

His words felt like an order, and she was liking it.

On the other hand, Kaisen reveled in the power he had over two powerful NPCs.

Even though he was just level 21, courtesy of making Maximus a cuck which jumped him two levels, he was ordering these two around.

'Fucking hell! Is this what it is to be like a bull? To have this power over the couple?'

He was slowly getting addicted to it.

Power corrupts, yes, but if its giving this much satisfaction, then he was all for it.

'Thank you, Corrupted One.'

His strong hand was squeezing her ass cheeks firmly but gently. Maximus heard a weak "yes" and he gulped in anticipation.

He quickly jumped to the hole and stood at the far end, making sure he got the best view of his fiancée's massage session.

He watched as Kaisen made Sable sit on the ground, her legs dangling over the edge of the pool.

Kaisen positioned himself behind her, casting a devilish smile towards him.

His eyes widened, and he quickly began digging into the ground.

'I'm a knight... I'm a knight... Has it... started yet...?'

Maximus's thoughts were a muddled mess as he dug, trying to focus on his task but unable to keep his eyes off the scene unfolding before him.

The next time Maximus peeked at them, he saw Sable with her eyes closed, Kaisen's hands massaging her shoulders.

She was sitting between his widened legs, and she looked relaxed.

Gulp.

Kaisen's gaze was fixed on Maximus, ensuring he was watching his fiancée getting a massage.

The look in Kaisen's eyes was both challenging and taunting, as if daring Maximus to react.

He couldn't react.

How could he?

'He's dominant, unlike me. He can tame a fearsome and dangerous woman like Sable-san. I could never...'

Maximus was discovering things he never knew existed.

He never thought for a second that he would stoop to this level, but here he was, eagerly watching his fiancée getting groped by a stronger, more courageous man.
