My second life as a dungeon

As the Twilight defenders were leaving the small village sinister plans were being put into motion far away but would still eventually affect Liz, as well as almost everyone that lives on this small rock called Nero. The scene takes place in an incredibly gaudy throne room that is covered in gold and ivory to the point that even the richest nobleman would think that it was too much.

Inside the room are four figures, two of them are seven feet tall, wear full plated silver armour that’s adorned with tons of unnecessary accessories, they both wield a longsword as long as their forearm as well as an oval shield that covered their arm and had an ouroboros snake emblazoned on it. They were flanking the third figure who was lazily sitting on a huge throne that was somehow too big for the eight foot tall demon.

This figure wore similar armour but it was gold and didn’t include a helmet, this was because a helmet would hide what they considered the most beautiful face in existence. In actuality his face was only really attractive to other demons as any other race that gazed upon it would only see pure evil given form. Finally, huge wings emerged out of all of their backs, but the lazing demon’s wings were quite a bit bigger creating a huge 6 foot wingspan.

In front of him the fourth, and final, figure was kneeling on the floor with one arm over her heart as she looked down at the ground. This final figure wasn’t wearing any armour, in fact they were practically wearing nothing, the only thing covering them being an extremely thin black bra made out of lace that had see-through material attached to it that went down to her thighs as well as lace panties that were so thin she might as well not be wearing anything.

Out the back of the panties curled a long, thin tail which ended with an upside down heart. This let us see what she looked like in her entirety, her skin was a lustful red, same as the demon on the throne, she had two horns protruding from her forehead that curved up and backwards just stopping at her scalp before they could complete the loop. Her hair was a darker red and went all the way to her lower back.

She may be a demonkin but her face was sculpted perfectly so that anyone, no matter race or gender, that saw her face would say that it was the epitome of beauty. She had huge breasts that were almost too big for her but she somehow pulled it off well, her thighs were quite pudgy, making them perfect pillows to sleep on, and her legs were quite long.

The throne room was consumed by silence until it was broken by the figure that was currently sitting on the throne looking absolutely bored even with this amazing beauty in front of him, ‘It has been a long time since I was last in the mortal world and I have almost regained all of my strength. I may not have enough energy to summon myself there yet but I need to start getting prepared for my inevitable arrival.’

His voice was just as posh and overdone as his throne room was and everyone could tell that it was fake but they knew that if they said anything they would be instantly vaporised so no one brought it up, ‘That is why I have summoned you here, I need to conserve my energy as much as possible and as you can use the locals as you see fit it is most efficient to send just you.

‘You will find a group of adventurers and ‘sway’ them to our side before going around and destroying as many of those damned dungeons as possible.’ Just mentioning the dungeons made the demon king angry, causing the area around him to heat up. Luckily for the demons around him he quickly calmed down before continuing. ‘Without any dungeons to hide away in, less hero hopefuls will be able to gain power and we will have an easier time taking over our rightful claim.’

‘Your wish will be done my lord’ The kneeling figure said, still looking down at the floor ‘I will not disappoint you.’ At this point a bright light engulfed the kneeling figure as they were transported to Nero, just before she disappeared she formed an illusion around her body that would hide her demonic nature. As she opened her eyes she was in a field surrounded by grass with a pretty large town in front of her. She slowly stood up, dusted her knees and walked towards the town as she quietly said to herself ‘time to get to work.’

In a tavern in that same town a group of adventurers that we had met before were celebrating completing a long and arduous quest. ‘When that thing disappeared the second time I was so angry that it got away but seeing the look on its face when that artifact you commissioned stopped it from getting away a third time was worth every single coin we had to pay.’ laughed Monsoon as he gulped down his fourth pint of mead that night.

Even though he was a lightweight he always went overboard like this after a long quest so we were used to his antics. ‘Well I was just as annoyed as you’ said Athtar grumpily slamming down his mug, he may not go as hard on the alcohol as Monsoon but he still always got at least a little more angry than usual when he was tipsy.

Luckily he had never started a fight with anyone but we still made sure to keep an eye on him just in case. ‘It took us a whole month to track her down the first time she escaped I sure wasn’t going to be going through that a third time.’

‘I still don’t really understand what that thing was or what it was doing.’ DD said, she may be deep into her fifth pint but she could actually hold her alcohol pretty well so she wasn’t even tipsy yet, or if she was I couldn’t tell. DD may be our information gatherer but she was never really good at putting the pieces together, even when I had explained the situation to her multiple times.

‘Look I told you before, it was a-’ I started to say, getting into explaining everything we had found out during our search for a third time that night, when the door to the bar slammed open and I got an incredibly bad feeling all of a sudden. I turned back to see who had come in and saw a beautiful woman walk in, something felt off about her but I couldn’t tell what it was.

The feeling was similar to how I felt in that mansion a month ago, maybe if I hadn’t drank so much that night I would have been faster to place it and warned everyone else. Unfortunately my eyes met the woman’s and the feeling left before I could say anything and she started to walk towards us. ‘Can I help you?’ I asked her as soon as she was standing in front of me.

‘Oh would you be so kind?’ she said in an incredibly sweet and overly cute voice that was incredibly fake but as the words left her mouth something came over me and I didn’t even think about what her voice sounded like other than how I suddenly wanted to hear more of it. ‘I am new to this area and would really appreciate some help getting acclimated.’ At this she sat down at our table without anyone complaining even though she had interrupted our celebration.

Over the next few hours we talked about the town and the local area as our heads grew foggier and foggier until we practically weren’t thinking at all. At the end of the night she asked us to show her to the best inn in town which we all agreed to. About an hour later we had paid for her room and started to say our goodbyes before she suggested that we stay in her room with her, we were the ones who had paid for the room after all.

By then it was too late for any of us to disagree with her so we all slept with her that night and the cage had fully closed around us. Although maybe it had been too late to do anything from the second she laid her eyes on us.
