━━━━━━ POV ━━━━━━━
The orc king was patiently waiting in the hallway. He couldn't help but glance at the reception desk, still shocked.
The bullied Succubus had just stopped crying. It had taken so much cajoling and reassurance from the receptionist to finally ease her worries. His master had made that much of an impact!
Suddenly a door was slammed open. This time it was the golden door. Wait, what?!
— Slam! —
A succubus came out, but there was something strange about her. It felt oddly familiar? But then he noticed in shock that she showed the same symptoms as him! What the hell?!
"I'm sooo hungry!!! I'll eat anything, anything! No matter how much I eat, it's never enough. Please spare a little vitality for this poor Succubus!" She begged as her stomach rumbled.
Then her eyes landed on his green skin, and he found himself panicking. He instantly replied: "The previous guy is my master!"
As soon as she heard his words, she trembled with her face turning livid. He made a mental note at this moment: when faced with a deadly succubus, pray to Josh MF Malum.
"You should know better than to attack customers outside the rooms." The receptionist started berating, only to stop. Was there a point to scold the Succubus that was now curled up on the floor, holding her belly?
Their eyes both rested on the diamond door.
"He won't come out alive of this one for sure." She nonchalantly stated it as a fact.
"Not only will he be alive and well, but he won't have a single scratch, and the succubus in there will be traumatized!" The orc thundered with pride.
"Oh? Would you be willing to bet on it?" Came the succubus' playful voice.
Bet? It was possible to make a bet?! Then again, it wasn't that odd from demons. He had learned all about the practice from the humans too. He simply hadn't had the chance to try it much.
"What shall we bet?"
"How about this?" She uttered in a sultry voice as a magical contract floated his way.
[Terms of the Bet!]
[Bet: Alive, No injuries, Succubus = Traumatized]
[Win: Gets a Reward from the Head Succubus!]
[Loss: Your Life is Hers!]
"Tch— Those terms are insane!" He remarked.
"You don't have to agree if—" The reception suddenly shut up.
Even after complaining, the orc was hurriedly signing. He had to hurry before his master came out, and she changed her mind!
As "THE Mighty Orc King" glowed in purple, he gave a satisfied grin.
— Slam! —
He felt his heart beat faster, every second feeling like an eternity. But then someone appeared: it was his master! But there was just one issue: he was utterly covered in blood!
"Hahaha, this my win! Your life is mine!" The Succubus grinned victoriously.
She rushed toward the orc with a ravenous look, her slender fingers outstretched as if claws. She flapped her four bat wings to gain speed.
But just as she was reaching him, the magical contract suddenly glowed brightly as if a miniature sun. That's when she plummeted to the ground, twisting in incredible anguish.
"W-what is happening?! Human, you're covered in blood, aren't you hurt?!" She screamed amidst her pained screams.
"Blood? Nope, not mine. Still, I got to say: the Succubus inside was positively crazy!" He sighed as he shook his head.
"Was?" The orc instantly noticed.
"Oh yeah, she offed herself."
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
"That's impossible! She's the strongest there is!!!" The receptionist screamed.
She rushed forward, taking out a dark pearl and putting it inside the fog. While this happened, the other two crawled away from Josh with terror in their eyes, hugging the wall.
The receptionist drew her hand back, the pearl now seemingly filled with a white cloud. She then manipulated it, revealing some audio recording. It was the crazy dead Succubus:
"I'll defeat your 'Champion' in a second!"
"I'll just do this, and…why isn't it reacting?!"
"It's fine! Let me see you resist this, hahaha!"
"W-what?! How is it still totally fine?! What is this?!"
"Whatever! Take this supreme attack from me! I'll destroy you!"
"ARGG! I-it's still standing?! H-how?! You tricked me! This thing is…."
That's when Josh's voice was heard.
"There's no need to trick you, really. I was giving you a chance, letting you fight my pet. So much energy wasted on a useless technique... Hum, there's still a bit left to devour…."
There was no picture for the scene, but it was clear that the Succubus was utterly terrified. Her voice started shaking, became high-pitched, and her breathing was rough.
"W-what are you trying to do?!"
"W-what the hell are you?!"
"N-nooo! Stay away!"
"M-monster!"
"I-I won't die like this!"
That's when there was a splattering sound, the kind a succubus head would make when exploding. Then with a — Crack! — everything was over.
The receptionist had unknowingly tightened her grip on the pearl, crushing it. Her hands were bleeding from the fragments, and yet she could only stare at Josh, gulping loudly.
"What? I'm telling you she went crazy. She killed herself." He shrugged once more.
The Succubus shook again. Who the hell was he trying to fool?! It would have been way more convincing if he wasn't currently licking the blood on his hands!
That's when she felt another pang of pain deep in her body. This was the magical contract urging her to uphold her part of the bargain. Without waiting, she plunged her hand deep inside her own chest!
It was just like with the keys!
She brought out a red glowing heart-shaped pearl. The actual appearance didn't matter much as this was only a representation of her power. She reluctantly threw it at the orc.
"Take it. It's my charm ability." She begrudgingly explained, the magical contract disappearing in smoke.
"A succubus just gave you her heart, eh? How mighty! What did I miss?" Josh mischievously inquired.
How mighty?! Said the guy who had bullied a succubus, starved another, and finally terrified the last one into suicide! (Or devoured her?)
The orc didn't hesitate. He resumed the situation then offered the heart to his master. He would know how to use it better than him for sure!
Josh couldn't help but feel touched by his subordinate's devotion. He grabbed it under his encouraging gaze. It was full of mana and definitely contained great power!
< High Succubus' Heart! ❤️ >
But right before absorbing it, he suddenly felt that something was amiss. It wasn't that the heart was especially dangerous, nor that he was incompatible with it either…. Then why?!
He just felt as if fusing with it would be an incredible mistake. He threw it back to the orc with a smile: here, have fun with it. I don't need it.
"Ah?! Is it bad?" The orc asked while glancing suspiciously a the Succubus it had come from.
She felt her anger rising so much that she forgot her previous terror. What the hell were those two doing?! This was her precious power: why did they treat it like it was trash?!
"Not exactly bad: I just don't need it. Anyway, let's keep going." Josh whistled a little tune as he went toward the last Boss-like door.
The orc hurriedly absorbed the crystal and suddenly found himself more….Handsome? No. Manly? Neither. Charming? Not exactly.
It was such a strange feeling that he couldn't explain it. Without bothering about thinking about it, she rushed after his master.
Josh carefully inserted the four keys as the door opened with a creaking sound. That's when they were both bathed in a holy glow!
There was a corridor opening in front of them. At the end of it, there was a golden sun radiating incredible energy— or that's what it looked like!
"Master, there it is! That's what we're looking for!"
"How is it so….flashy?" Josh then mustered the most amazing sounding voice he could muster. "Behold the golden butt plug!"
"Ah, but it may not be easy to reach." The orc suddenly gulped in shock.
On the floor, the walls and even the ceiling were succubi! Their naked bodies lay intertwined with one another as if a nest of snakes— well, prettier.
At this moment, any female body enjoyer would have been pleased:
Ass? Plenty!
Bosom? Bountiful!
Thigh? Everywhere!
There was something for all tastes, from feet to hair and even wings. Yet, this only served to stress the orc. He couldn't stop reminiscing about that bronze room that had almost killed him.
But, there was something he seemed not to have realized. Josh playfully slapped his back to give him courage— or so it seemed, but then the orc was sent flying straight into their midst!
As he landed in a sea of softness, he dedicated a small prayer for his dream of orcish unification that would end here. He was doomed to…die?
For some reason, it seemed as if the succubi weren't caring about him one bit? What?! That's when he saw his master's smile.
"You smell just like them, so just go on." He urged him.
That's when he finally understood. It was all thanks to the succubus' heart! They mistook him for the receptionist in charge of the place! No wonder!
He slowly rose and started walking on the sea of slim yet plumped bodies. He quickly reached the objective, grabbing it decisively. The two exchanged a victorious grin awaiting the rewards.
[Congratulations! Completed — ]
— SHATTER! —
— CRACKLE! —
What the hell?! Just as they were celebrating, the space suddenly shattered. Oh god, oh fucking god! This was the same as that time, with the Tower almost getting destroyed.
That's when a sultry yet incredibly compelling voice resounded.
"Who dares to bully a succubus?!!" Something, or rather someone, was exiting the dimensional fissure.
Josh completely froze. How was SHE here?!!
