Corruption in the dungeon

EP.23 Chapter 23 To Think I Have to Just Look at Those Big Jugs

[The Floa abandoned by the Demon King has met with misfortune.]

[Now only miserable things remain in her future.]

[Experience points increase.]

On the fourth day after throwing Floa out of the dungeon.

A system window popped up and experience points increased.

A message saying Floa, who I had Amy throw out, met with misfortune.

It didn't seem like she had died.

It was an instinctive feeling.

A Demon King's intuition?

No.

There was a subtle sense I gained from partially absorbing her energy.

As if her presence was connected to me by a thin thread, I could feel that she hadn't died yet.

'Unfortunate things for a woman chased out in that state.'

She probably met with some incident from the villagers.

There was no need to know exactly what happened to her.

She was a woman who had left my hands.

"So experience points increase this way too?"

It seemed I could gain additional experience points not just from having sex with women, but also based on what happens to prey thrown out of the dungeon.

'There's no need to absorb all the energy.'

Floa gave me experience points because she met a miserable end.

Does that mean I get experience points when expelled women meet with bad things?

'I'll know if I try.'

As I soaked in warm water, I thought of adventurers who would come in the future.

Certainly, many of those who came just for sex weren't worth absorbing.

It's weak as a sex dungeon.

It felt like I needed to add some new elements.

What would be good?

It seemed good to kill the men, install simple traps for low-value adventurers to fall to their deaths, and set up devices so that only somewhat strong ones could enter.

Since I gained considerable experience points from eating Jackal, I could use that to make traps.

The items he had also became quite substantial experience points.

Absorbing adventurers and their items.

That was how the dungeon grew.

A system that gives me more experience points the better items the dying adventurer has.

Now that I knew it worked even on A-rank adventurers, it seemed okay for slightly stronger ones to come.

'Though I struggled a bit.'

I won't make the same mistake twice.

Finishing my thoughts, I got out of the water.

As I came out, Yulia in a swimsuit knelt and bowed to me.

"I'll dry you off."

After the first bath, she didn't do things like becoming a chest shower ball herself. I told her not to do it unless she was really going to have relations with me.

But she had begged several times to let her dry my body after bathing, so I allowed this.

Yulia slowly dried my body with a soft towel.

I looked at Yulia whose figure was almost completely revealed in a micro bikini.

Sigh, to think I have to just look at those big jugs.

My penis rose high towards the sky and twitched towards Yulia, but neither I nor Yulia showed much change in expression.

It was a common occurrence.

My penis reacting every time she dried my body.

How long can I endure?

I don't know.

Though Yulia seemed somewhat excited every time she saw my penis, I deliberately ignored it.

The quest to fuck a succubus kept lingering in my mind.

Now 11 months remain.

If I don't fuck her within that time, I'll die.

But I can't hastily fuck her either.

She was obedient to me but absolutely refused when it came to mixing bodies together.

Because if I mixed bodies with her now, I would die.

I kept passing it up because I didn't want to die either.

Still level 5.

It was far too early to think I was strong.

If I don't become definitely stronger.

It means I won't be able to fuck Yulia in the end.

I need to diligently become stronger.

Leveling up was slow because stronger beings weren't coming as expected.

It's fine for now, but I needed to speed up because fame would automatically increase from some point.

'For example, if an investigation team is dispatched to find the adventurers I annihilated during the tutorial.'

In that case, I needed to speed up because an event forcibly raising fame would be held.

[Warning! An investigation team has been dispatched.]

Exactly this kind of quest.

"Fucking hell."

"Demon King?"

The event has already activated?

***

Rebecca.

A devout knight of the Holy Order.

The captain of the Virgin Knights, she headed to the church today after receiving a summons from the Order.

She walked through the city in shining armor, her beautiful blonde hair fluttering.

People's admiring gazes gathered on her.

In the Kingdom of Aslan that believed in the Holy Order as its state religion, Holy Knights were the most respected profession by all.

The Holy Knight Order was a place people wanted to join even more than the Royal Knight Order.

And among the Holy Knight Order, a unit composed solely of women.

The Virgin Knights, with a total size of 100 members.

Rebecca was the captain of the Holy Knight Order commonly called the Virgin Knights.

"You've arrived! Sir Knight!"

When Rebecca arrived at the church, the guards protecting the church saluted her.

"You're working hard."

"What brings you here today?"

"The Bishop summoned me. Where is he?"

"If it's the Bishop, he should be in the prayer room now."

"Thank you."

She passed by the soldiers and entered the church.

Passing through the crowded auditorium, devotees who saw her clasped their hands and bowed their heads.

It was a ritual devotees performed when seeing Holy Knights.

She also returned their greetings with a nod and entered the prayer room.

The prayer room with a large symbol of the Order placed in the center.

Sunlight falling from the stained glass windows shattered and illuminated the Order's symbol.

In front of that symbol, an old man in white priestly robes was praying with his hands clasped.

"You've come, Sister Rebecca."

He spoke to Rebecca while maintaining his praying posture with hands clasped.

"Bishop, why have you called me?"

"One of the children chosen by God has gone missing."

"By chosen child, you mean..."

"That's right. A Holy Maiden candidate."

"Why would a candidate... Weren't they usually serving missions suitable for their level with reliable examiners?"

"That's what I understood, but I hear they haven't returned to the guild yet."

Rebecca closed her mouth.

The disappearance of a Holy Maiden candidate.

It wasn't good news.

In the church called the Holy Order or Order of Light, Holy Maiden candidates blessed with God's love appeared each generation.

Until the current Holy Maiden lost her power and retired, it was the duty of Holy Maiden candidates to serve the world by receiving missions matching their individual strengths. And the moment the Holy Maiden lost her power, the system was that the one who served most devoutly and kept God's faith became the new Holy Maiden.

Even a candidate with weak power could become the Holy Maiden if her faith was devout and her service sincere.

So the missing Holy Maiden could possibly be the one to lead the Order.

For such a Holy Maiden candidate to go missing.

"What is the candidate's name?"

"Amy. The examiner who went with her to escort her is Williams."

"Ah."

She knew Williams too.

He was an examiner lacking in swordsmanship skills, but excellent in devotion and judgment.

"They may have met with an unexpected accident."

"That's right. They are relatively weak."

The Bishop swallowed with his back turned.

Even a weak Holy Maiden candidate is still a candidate.

What if it's revealed to the devotees that such a candidate has gone missing?

"Though she has much weaker power than other candidates, that child is still a Holy Maiden candidate. If she's gone missing, we must manage it."

The Order's authority would surely plummet.

"Is the mission to find her?"

"Yes, that's right. Take 3 reliable Holy Knights with you. As captain of the Virgin Knights, you must have reliable subordinates?"

3 people.

A total of 4 including her.

The Bishop's desire to handle this matter as discreetly as possible was evident.

If something really happened to the Holy Maiden candidate, 4 Holy Knights might not be able to easily resolve it.

At least one squad.

It was an issue that required 10 people to move.

Yet only 4?

Words she wanted to argue piled up, but she couldn't bring herself to open her mouth.

Although the Virgin Knights composed only of virgins belonged to the Holy Knight Order, a Bishop ruling a church in a large city had the authority to command Holy Knights.

Even she, as captain of the Virgin Knights, couldn't say much before him.

"Of course."

"I believe in your abilities. I believe you can bring Amy back alive even if she's dead."

The Bishop's gentle voice with his back turned to her hid a well-honed blade.

Bring Amy back even if you have to fabricate it.

She sensed the Bishop's true intentions.

"I'll keep that in mind."

"Then go. There isn't much time. Not much remains until the current Holy Maiden loses her power."

"Yes."

Rebecca bowed her head and left the prayer room.

"A Holy Maiden candidate has gone missing..."

It won't be an easy task.

I heard that people who received God's love and blessing avoided most dangers.

'What could have happened?'

The task she had to resolve would certainly not be easy.

Rebecca's steps returning to the Holy Knight Order headquarters were heavy.

***

"I need to prepare additional traps quickly."

"Additional traps, you say?"

"Yes. Holy Knights will be coming soon."

"Holy Knights... you say?"

"That's right."

As soon as she heard the words Holy Knights, Amy's face filled with anger.

Her hatred for evil when she was a priestess had completely reversed.

"Why are those bastards who believe in a wicked god coming here?"

"They're coming to kill me."

At those words, Amy clasped her hands.

"That will absolutely never happen, Demon King. I will protect you, Demon King. Please believe me."

"Of course I believe you."

I need you this time.

It seems I can only win with you.
