Chapter 10 - It’s Judgement Time. (1)

"Broc!? You missed her," yelled a familiar voice.

Laila's gaze fell upon the stern of the ship, where two shadowy figures emerged from the glow of the moonlight. It was the lean, sinewy form of Lucius, his presence both alluring and enigmatic, accompanied by his formidable bodyguard, Broc, whose broad shoulders and imposing stature cast a commanding silhouette against the night sky. Intrigue coursed through Laila as she recognized the duo, their familiar faces stirring a whirlwind of emotions within her.

"You got me once with that, coward. But I won't let you get another," Laila shouted out as she glared at the pair with her glowing green eyes.

Lucius, a striking figure in his late 30s, possessed a mane of dark, jet-black hair that contrasted sharply with the prominent scar etched across his face—a mark of stories untold. He carried himself with an air of nobility, draped in fine garments that suggested a lineage he never had, lending an aura of mystery to his character. There was a certain magnetism about him, as if he were a man who had walked through shadows and emerged with secrets swirling in his gaze.

Lucius stepped forward, a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth as his gaze lingered upon Laila, drinking in the sight of her new figure.

"Wait? Laila!? You're alive? But how did you become a succubus? And here I thought I could never have sex with you. Maybe I miscalculated... Well... Since you're a monster now, that means I can enslave you and have sex with you all I want. Broc, bring her to me. I want to have my way with her," Lucius ordered his bodyguard.

Broc is an imposing figure, standing tall at 6'7" with a muscular build that commands attention. In his mid-40s, he exudes a rugged charisma honed from years of adventure. A master of the crossbow, he wields his weapon with the precision of a seasoned hunter. Broc's fighting style is not about brute force; instead, he relies on stealth and cunning, striking swiftly from the shadows before his opponents even know he's there.

Laila clenched her teeth, her blood boiling as her mind raced as she readied herself for her final confrontation. The two men were her adversaries, and the stakes were high.

"Right," Broc nodded, and then he disappeared, his movements so quick that he seemed to vanish before Laila's very eyes.

*Whoosh!*

'Where did he go!? Where did—' Laila's thoughts were interrupted when Broc suddenly appeared behind her, grabbing her arm and twisting it.

"ARGH!" Laila grunted out as the pain shot up her arm. 'HUH!? He's fast! Too fast! Is this the power of an assassin?' she thought as she tried to break his hold. But the burly assassin was too strong and quickly twisted her other arm and pushed her down, causing her to crash into the deck.

"ARGH! Let me go, you bastard!"

Broc didn't answer her as he took out a pair of handcuffs and went to place them on her.

'Shit! If I let him lock my hands, then I'm done for!' Laila thought as she tried with all her might to escape, but the burly assassin was far too strong for her.

'Dammit, what can I do? What can I—' Laila's thoughts were interrupted when, all of a sudden, a figure in a red jacket rushed across the deck of the ship and grabbed hold of Broc's right wrist, which was holding the handcuffs.

"What the—!?" Broc grunted out.

'Chase!?' Laila's eyes widened as she recognized the Demon Lord.

"Let her go, or I will snap your wrist," Chase warned as he squeezed the assassin's wrist, causing some cracking noises.

"Gah!" Broc shouted in pain as he released his hold on Laila.

Chase then grabbed the hair on Broc's head and proceeded to smack his face into the wooden deck, causing him to become dazed.

Broc let out a startled yelp as an overwhelming pressure enveloped him. Just then, Chase lunged forward, seizing his wrist and twisting it with a fierce grip. With a swift motion, Broc felt the cold metal of the handcuffs slip from his fingers, clattering to the ground.

*CRACK!*

Laila and Broc both heard the sound of bones breaking, and the assassin started screaming in pain.

Laila heard the sounds of sickening crack echo through the air, followed by the assassin's piercing scream that pierced the night. The sheer agony in his voice was almost enough to make her wince, a testament to the intensity of Chase's assault. But she was more happy than upset that he broke the assassin's wrist. Chase came to her aid once more, and she was grateful. Also, at the time, she didn't notice the tingling sensation in her pussy, and her green eyes were locked on the Demon Lord's figure.

'Wow... Chase... He's amazing. But why did I get turned on watching him beat up that guy?' Laila thought.

"Don't you dare lay a finger on her again, you bastard. Otherwise, next time, I'll snap your neck," Chase growled as he pinned the burly assassin against the deck of the ship.

The burly man squirmed under Chase's grip, his eyes wide with fear and his body shaking. Chase pressed his forearm against Broc's chest, his strength unyielding.

"W-What are you? Argh!" Broc moaned as he couldn't help but notice that the Demon Lord's body was so firm. His muscles were perfectly sculpted, which is the definition of masculine beauty. It was a sight to behold, and the feeling of being trapped beneath him made his blood pump with excitement.

Chase didn't like how this guy was staring at him, so he punched him in the face.

*WHACK!*

"ARGH!" Broc moaned as he was knocked unconscious, the world spinning into darkness.

"Broc! WAKE UP, YOU WORTHLESS TRASH!" Lucius shouted as his bodyguard was defeated. Chase stood up and helped Laila to her feet. She stared at him with starry eyes while Chase watched Lucius carefully, his hands ready for any action the villain may attempt. Laila shook her head and came back to her senses. She looked at the mayor's son, her eyes flashing a bright green as she glared at him.

"W-Who are you? You WORM!" Lucius shouted in frustration as he saw the man standing beside Laila with two horns sticking out of his forehead.

"Me?... You don't need to know. What you do need to know is if you want to survive this night, then I suggest you drop any weapons you have and release the captives," Chase demanded as he stood in front of Laila, shielding her from Lucius. Normally, she would have been annoyed if some man had protected her. But now, the feeling was different; she liked that Chase was willing to protect her. It made her feel safer and more confident.

'Wow... His presence is just... Wow... And his eyes... There's something about them that makes me feel like they've been staring at me for centuries... What is this feeling in my heart? Why does my pussy throb every time I look at him?' Laila thought as her cheeks turned pink.

"No, I don't think I will, worm. They're my property, and they will be mine until they die," Lucius retorted.

"So this is how it's going to be," Chase said, his voice cold and detached. He was getting tired of playing games.

"I am not afraid of you, demon. I will slay you and then have my way with your little slut of a succubus," Lucius said as he drew his rapier and pointed it at Chase.

'Shit!... Should I let Laila fight him? Or should I pick up a weapon or something and try to defend myself?' Chase thought as he looked at the rapier and the mayor's son.

"Hahahahahaha! Are you going to fight me with your bare hands?" Lucius taunted Chase.

"I can improvise," Chase said as he readied himself.
