Chapter 118: Fighting Over My Flesh: How Absurd
Dust swayed upward as leaves drifted past the front of the Lust’s Pride bar. Bell chimes sounded as Peggi stepped up with a yawn.
"Wait, who are those coming?" She rubbed the back of her arms across all four eyes of her two goat heads. "Is that?"
Her fur danced as a wave of stormy wind swept over her. ’Yo, Lucy is bringing another slave.’
Her eyebrows widened while she turned and grabbed the Lust’s Pride door behind her.
Metal latches clattered at the top bar as Peggi pushed the door open and entered. "Hey, everyone."
Glass, bone, and wood groaned as all the demons in the bar turned. Red wine spilled on the floor while a lady in a full nun’s robe with an upside-down cross on her neck giggled. "What’s up, Peggi?"
Her brown hair sprawled on her shoulders as she lifted her smudged face, staring straight into Peggi’s eyes. "I thought you said you’ve had enough for today."
Soft chatter burst upward as the remaining demon ladies tapped their skull cups together with laughter. "Guess she was wrong all along."
Saliva leaked out of Peggi’s mouth while she licked her lips and moved forward softly. "Ivy, demon of the cathedra..."
Faint skin claps lingered behind Peggi as she closed in on Ivy, the nun demon. "You may be right on one point."
The upside-down cross lying between Ivy’s huge breasts wobbled as she stood up. "Guess you’re not just a dumb gatekeeper, but also a dumb drunkard like us."
Cloth-rustling sounds erupted when the hems of Ivy’s outfit shook, causing the veil covering her hair to dance in the air.
Peggi’s eyes burned with rage while she tilted her gaze to the laughing faces of the high-tier demons backing Ivy. ’I would have crushed all of you if not for my rank.’
Just as Ivy placed her right palm on Peggi’s shoulder, the Lust’s Pride door blasted open.
Air plummeted through the open space and filled the bar. Black smoke billowed out as gray-white strands of hair prickled through it like swords. "Who is that causing the disturbance?"
Ivy’s hair rose up. Lucy, the half-human, half-demon, walked through the black smoke. ’Always showing off.’
Skin groans sounded from her as she stretched herself, causing her thick, tight, black nun gown to squeeze against her hourglass, ripped body. "We’ve met again, Lucy."
Hot gasps puffed out of Ivy’s nose while she walked past Peggi, stopping five feet away from Lucy. "Let me guess, you didn’t come empty-handed."
A sharp brown glow flared in Ivy’s eyes when she shifted her gaze from Lucy to the black-robed human man with bound hands, standing a foot away from Lucy. ’So, he’s the one.’
Faint bone pops sounded in Ivy’s arms as she squinted at the guy’s forehead, spotting the Slime Goddess’s gold mark on him. ’He should be so strong to still live having that on him.’
Sharp footsteps rang out as Lucy moved forward. "Ivy, Ivy, Ivy..."
Her huge tits bounced on her chest when she stopped at the demon nun’s side. "You never lose guard at your post."
The hems of Lucy’s gown brushed against Ivy’s black gown as she leaned on her shoulder. "Isn’t that concerning?"
Rage blasted out of Ivy’s subordinates while Lucy began thumping on Ivy’s shoulders. But Ivy signaled to them to keep calm, then laughed. "I’m not the one to be asked that, Lucy. You are."
Sparks ignited from beneath Ivy as she moved a step forward and began inspecting the tied human. "Well, well..."
She sniffed the sweet-scented air lingering around the human, receiving it as if receiving a blessing from her master, the third witch, Ashtar, the Water Demon. ’This one smells different.’
Ivy’s eyes glowed while she shifted a joyous glance from the human to Lucy. "This one will be perfect meat for my master, don’t you agree?"
She licked her lips as Lucy moved toward her with a clenched fist. "This is not meat for your master; it’s meat for mine."
The hood of the black robe covering Levi brushed against his forehead while he stood there, shifting glances between the two ladies’ huge tits. ’Both of them seem to have the same size.’
Hot beads of sweat lingered on his forehead as heat rose up in his body. ’I’ve already known what Lucy’s breast contains; guess I have a lot to learn from this land before I think of leaving.’
Ivy’s fingernails sharpened when a faint, breezy gasp hissed out of the black-robed human. "What’s funny, human?"
Her thick, tight black nun’s robe groaned as she raised her right arm above Levi’s head, exhaled sharply, and brought it down. But Levi’s mind went straight to how bouncy and juicy her breasts jingled beneath the tight cloth.
’It seems I’ve got to switch positions with the cross between her breasts.’
The Sovereign Sigil on his chest glowed faintly while he closed his eyes and lowered his head.
Grit kicked up as Lucy moved to Levi’s side. "I just came for a quick shot, but guess I’ve got to continue to the fourth witch’s castle."
Ivy laughed and clapped. "You mean, you came to take a shot with this low-level human who smells like shit?"
She tilted her head slightly, planting her palms on her slender, snatched waist. "I never knew the fourth witch’s personal rider goes on dates with low-level humans whose sole purpose is to be eaten as meals."
Levi’s forehead hardened beneath the hood of the black robe as he clenched his chin. ’It’s just a matter of time before you stop saying this nonsense. Just a matter of time.’
Peggi snarled and moved forward. "You’ll always remain blind to such humans, Ivy."
She stopped by Lucy’s side and handed her a skull filled with the red wine before turning to Ivy. "I guess you didn’t even notice Lucy was returning a runaway prisoner."
Wood scrapes sounded as the subordinate demon nuns of Ivy rose up from their seats, laughing.
Ivy’s breasts wobbled, pressing against the upside-down cross as her subordinates stopped behind her. "You call this an achievement?"
She giggled faintly, then winked at Lucy. "I think you’ve got a lot to learn."
Just as she brushed her left palm on her own face, a spatial rift tore through the space between her and Lucy, showcasing hundreds of hungry-looking men standing beside the River Goddess’s castle. "This is what we call an achievement, Lucy."
’What a fool she is.’ Levi sighed once, shaking his head faintly. ’I can clearly see those hostages won’t even last three hours.’
Peggi’s horns knocked together as she lowered her head and laughed heartily. "Aww... sorry. But the slaves you’re boasting about won’t even reach your master alive. Their bodies are eating themselves up."
Lucy placed a hand on Peggi’s shoulder, then nodded once. "Thanks for the wine."
She smiled while turning her gaze to Ivy. "I guess I shouldn’t waste precious time with this demon who couldn’t even tame her slaves properly."
She walked out of the Lust’s Pride bar with laughter and vanished into the moving sand wind.
Ivy’s subordinates turned to her as they exited, fixing their gazes toward the northeast, where the Slime Goddess’s castle was. "Should we chase after them like we did earlier?"
She chuckled faintly, then shook her head. "Leave it to me this time."
Air blasted on the faces of her subordinates as Ivy transformed into a night crawler and burst into the sky like a bat...
