Solitar moved her body up and down in a rhythmic manner, making a squishy sound as her insides were being invaded by Sukuna lying below her.
*Squish*
Sukuna grabbed her jiggling breasts and squeezed them hard before lightly pinching her pink nipples.
"Ah~"
A drop of saliva dripped down Solitar's mouth as her eyes rolled back, showing a face filled with pleasure.
It was all an act.
She was copying a human woman and let out a fake moan and everything.
But with her being a demon, those fake expressions seemed even more genuine than the real one...
At least Sukuna was unable to tell the difference.
He suddenly grabbed her hips and forced her down, pushing his penis all the way inside.
With his thumb he rubbed her clitoris, squeezed her hips to increase the friction around his penis before relaxing.
Solitar quietly leaned down and kissed him with her wet pink tongue while asking in a calm tone.
"How was it?"
"... pretty good."
Sukuna replied, then hugged her tightly and kissed her again.
Meanwhile, the young Demon Lenie on the side was filled with confusion.
She couldn't understand why two demons were pretending to have sex like humans when it held no meaning to them.
Sukuna saw Lenie staring at them with unblinking eyes and said.
"How long are you going to stay here? Why don't you go back to your room?"
"...No, I'll stay," Lenie said in a calm tone.
Although she didn't show it, Sukuna knew the young demon was scared to death after having her heart pierced.
That was why she was staying in his room, probably thinking the Hero of the South will attack again.
But that was not possible since he had changed the city's magic barrier, no longer allowing humans entry for the night.
Solitar raised herself and turned back to look at Lenie before asking.
"Would you like to join us?"
Sukuna: ???
Where did that come from?
Lenie stared and asked in a calm tone.
"I do not understand the purpose of your actions."
Solitar moved her lower body forward and backward in a slow motion while replying.
"It is an experiment to help demons understand human emotions."
"Human emotions?..."
Lenie's eyes were filled with confusion.
Even though she had been born only 2 months ago, her biology made her understand that humans were simple prey for her, not something to be understood.
She only needed to deceive them and then kill them to satisfy her appetite.
So why waste time trying to understand them? When it isn't even possible.
"You must think it is impossible."
Solitar easily saw through her doubts and then pointed at Sukuna's red face.
"But look here, when I asked you to join, Sukuna's face flushed red in excitement and embarrassment."
Sukuna: ...
It was only now that Lenie noticed the anomaly.
Sukuna's reaction.
It was indeed unnatural for a demon.
But she was still not convinced.
"He could be faking it."
Demons are masters of manipulating emotions, after all.
Solitar stopped and got off from Sukuna.
"Come here..."
Lenie silently came beside Sukuna and grabbed his wrist like Solitar said.
Then before the confused Sukuna or Lenie could say anything, Solitar opened her mouth and took Sukuna's penis inside.
Damn!
Sukuna's pulse instantly became uneven due to the sudden attack.
Young Demon Lenie instantly noticed it.
"This... how?..." she said in a confused tone, staring at Sukuna and Solitar, her mind filled with questions.
Maybe it's because she's a young demon that she couldn't understand? Have the old demons reached so far in their research??
That night.
Solitar answered all of Lenie's questions while performing a live practical for her to witness.
And Sukuna...
He shrugged his shoulders and willingly resigned himself to the fate of a test subject.
----
Next Day.
The merchants from the royal capital, along with a group of priests, arrived at the Dawn City.
The merchants were expected, but the priests…
They were sent byBishop Kain from the holy city to establish the goddess's church.
A goddess's church in a demon's city?
Damn, the bishop really trusted him too much.
Sukuna thought for a moment before agreeing to build the church.
In the world of Frieren, to say that the goddess opposes the demons would be an incorrect statement.
Demons being unable to use holy power is only because using holy power requires deep faith.
But demons, being extremely pragmatic beings, simply lack the ability to have faith in something like the goddess.
That is why demons are unable to use holy magic.
At the same time, holy magic is a great counter for curses, and since demons generally delve deep into learning curse-type magic due to its killing potency, a misconception got created that demons and the goddess are at odds with each other.
Anyway, having a healer in the city is a nice addition, considering that holy magic is quite effective.
After he finished making decisions for the city, Sukuna went off to work on his warship.
Three months passed by silently without any trouble.
Then.
On a random day.
Sukuna received unexpected news, which made him frown.
"Demon Qual destroyed our caravan?"
"No, he destroyed the caravan belonging to the royal city that was heading our way. He did attack one of ours as well, but then stopped after seeing our crest..." Erde explained.
"Is that so?" Sukuna muttered while rubbing his chin.
Silently, he glanced at the obedient Lenie reading a magic book.
His binding vow experiment had seemed to be quite a success.
Maybe he could now start with his plan to create a dark order comprising demons.
Alright, it's decided.
Sukuna got up from his chair and stretched under everyone's confused eyes.
"I'm going out."
That came out of nowhere.
"I'll prepare a carriage," Erde closed the report and said in a hurry.
"No need; I want to go alone."
Sukuna looked at Eolitar and Lenie before saying,
"Make sure to behave while I am gone. Alright?"
The two of them raised their heads, then nodded in sync before lowering them again.
Sukuna took a cool-looking black horse from the stables before getting on it and riding out of the city.
'It's been years since I last went out…' Sukuna thought, looking at the scenery, which seemed familiar yet unfamiliar.
The road gave him a hint of nostalgia. It was the one he had personally created.
While going after the last known location of Demon Qual, Sukuna draped a cloak over himself to hide his horns and took several detours whenever he felt like it.
While doing that, one night, when he was staying in a village,
He came across a very familiar group.
Inside the tavern.
"Sigh, why is there no alcohol in this village? …"
"Shut up, you corrupted priest."
"Now, now, Heiter, I am sure we will find some in the next one."
"But who knows how long that will take? …"
They were a group of four.
A priest, a dwarf, an elf, and a blue-haired man.
It was the hero Himmel and his party.
