The Way of a Demon Lord-Novel

Chapter 82: Pay

Both Vanessa and Adrian were standing before an inn. It was the same inn where they stayed the previous night.

“Why are we here back again?” She looked at him. “Weren’t you going to enjoy the night?”

“Yes, I am. But, two is not enough for a party.” He smiled as he stepped towards the door.

Vanessa squinted, but followed nevertheless.

Inside, it was the same young lady behind the reception. But sleepiness was added to her eyes that already betrayed gloominess.

She looked at the incoming duo and clenched her teeth inside her mind.

In her small inn which remained empty most of the time- at night, she always got bored to the point of death. Finally, a ‘couple’ came up the previous night and asked for a room. They also putted up an ‘intimate’ show in front of the counter. She hit the jackpot! Or at least, that was what she thought.

She had given them the key to the ‘special’ room. Once they got in, she closed down the inn. None would come in anyway.

She rushed into the empty room just beside the ‘special’ one and removed the small piece of painting from the wall, revealing a small hole. She peeked through it into the ‘love-birds’ room.

But… nothing happened! Clothes were not thrown all over the place, the old and rusty bed did not make creaking sound, sounds of moans, claps and whines did not echo through the room- nothing.

That overly handsome young man only pushed the yellow haired beauty on the bed before wrapping his arm around her and sleep. Was that strong and sexy body just for show? Was he impotent?

But one thing was sure. She would not get any show and just like any other day, she had to blandly masturbate alone.

*Tap. Tap*

Adrian tapped on the wooden counter, waking her up from her trance.

“What do you want?” She barely hid her emotions.

“Close this place down and join us. We are heading to the Golden District.” Adrian said in his casual tone.

The young lady gasped. “The… the… Golden District? The expensive district only the rich and the nobles get to enjoy? Why would you bring me there?” Her tone did a complete 180. It was now filled with utmost respect and adoration.

“We will do some shopping and wander around the streets. We need someone to carry the bags. We will pay you and while we are at it, you can buy a few things for your own.” He pointed at Vanessa. “See this lady, she works for the Royal Family.”

“The Royal Family?!” She gasped again as she looked at the lady whose black hood hid her yellow hairs.

Vanessa could only roll her eyes beneath her hood. She had already notified him that this duty of her was confidential. 

“I… I will be right back!” Her whole body was trembling and there was a wide grin on her face.

“Sure.”

The young lady rushed to her own room which was just behind the counter.

Fifteen minutes passed. Half an hour passed. Forty five minutes passed. But there were no signs of her coming out. Adrian and Vanessa were sitting at a small dining table just a few meters away from the wooden counter, busy absorbing magical energy.

Finally, after an hour since her entrance into the room, she came out. Both Adrian and Vanessa could barely recognise the young commoner from before. Now, she looked as if she were a noble, a high ranked one at that. She was even wearing a gorgeous and expensive blue dress. She probably used half of her life’s saving on that very dress. Adrian looked into her eyes and nodded. Indeed, she spent that much.

She approached them, the rosy smell of her perfume sieved through their nostrils. But their reaction to her ‘transformation’- complete indifference.

Adrian removed his hood and gestured Vanessa to remove hers. Vanessa obeyed. She was a high level circler after all. She had sensed the peeking lady the previous night.

Adrian brought out a potion from his pocket and tossed it to Vanessa. Vanessa looked at the pitch black liquid in the vial and squinted.

“Take a sip.” Adrian ordered. “It will change your hair colour for an hour.”

Vanessa gasped- not because of the potions effect, but because of its efficiency. One sip for an hour? That was way too much. Even the better ones the Royal guardians used for espionage missions could last for a few minutes with a whole bottle.

She shrugged and took a sip. Nothing changed for a minute. Both Vanessa and Adrian were nonchalant. But the other young lady was shaking her foot in impatience. She wanted to see the magic.

Finally after a minute, Vanessa’s hair started to slowly become black. It started from the roots, and in less than a minute, it reached the tips of her long hair.

Vanessa took the tip of her hair in her hand and examined it. She gently brushed through her hair with her fingers and gave Adrian a nod.

Adrian then looked at the innkeeper. “Your name is Lamisa, right?”

“Yes.” She curtsied and squinted, trying to remember when did she reveal her name.

“I have a potion that can make you more beautiful, I will give it to you on the way.”

“Thank you!” She abruptly bowed, her whole body was shaking in excitement.

“Let’s go.” Adrian said as he approached the door to the inn. The girls followed.

The red light district- Ris, the city with a vibrant nightlife, would be incomplete without it.

The three were walking through the cheap streets of the area. There were loosely clothed prostitutes standing before the ‘shops’ beckoning the males, and even the females, passing through them.

But very few dared to stop the trio. Anyone could infer from their getups that they were nobles. And one at the front, the extremely good looking young man was of supremely high status.

But, there were some bold whores who dared to hook the other two.

“Hey little sister, you look great with that blue dress. But I am sure you look better without it.”

“Mmmh, look at that dainty body. But you can bet that it will soften up to my tongue.”

Vanessa was nonchalant but Lamisa was disgusted.

Adrian looked at her and reached out his hand. There was a vial with a purple liquid in it. “Drink it.”

“Thank you!” She snatched it from his hand with trembling hands and gulped down all of the purple contents with in; she even licked the very last drop of it.

Adrian continued walking. Vanessa followed and a few moments later, Lamisa caught up.

She was looking around, with a grin on her face, for mirrors. But alas, there were none. But that did not disappoint her, she remembered that the effect took time. Hence, she waited.

A minute later, she began to feel hot- her whole body heated up; her face flushed. She clenched her thighs together as she walked. She felt a tingling sensation down there; she had the urge- to take something in there.

‘Is that a side effect?’ That was the last non-lewd though she had.

Her strange behaviour made Vanessa frown and look at Adrian. The evil smile he had on his face sent shivers down her spine.

Lamisa’s eyes were on the back of Adrian. She was fantasising as her breaths grew heavier. Even drool escaped her lips. She could not take it anymore. But he suddenly stopped, causing her to almost bump into him.

Adrian looked at the comparatively large brothel just to his left, the smile on his face grew wider.

He approached the brothel. Lamisa subconsciously followed, with one of her hands rubbing her crotch. But Vanessa did not, she had an idea of what he was about to do. And by any means, she did not want to get in his way.

Suddenly, Adrian grabbed the young lady on heat by the back of her neck and pushed her into the brothel.

Many had their eyes on the trio since the beginning. And most of them saw him give her that weird purple liquid and her behaviour afterwards; they were able to infer what that liquid was. But his actions just now, sent chills down everyone’s spine.

There could be only one result in sending a drugged woman inside a stacked brothel. That young man was a maniac!

But nevertheless, some men who were observing the trio rushed towards that brothel. They could not miss playing with a ‘noble’ lady, could they?

Adrian gave way for them as he went on his way again. Vanessa followed this time.

“Why did you do that?” She could not hold back her curiosity. His actions did not make her despise him whatsoever. 

“She planned to use me.”

“Use you?” She squinted.

“Yes. She planned to use me for her masturbation session.” He said casually.

Vanessa knew what he meant. “So, that’s why you drugged her and pushed her into a brothel?”

“Yes.” Adrian stopped and looked at her, prompting her to stop as well. “Those who plan to use me must pay.” His voice grew chillingly cold. “One way or another.”

Vanessa gulped as she held herself from taking a step back. A drop of sweat trickled down her forehead.

She forced a smile. “In… indeed, she got what she deserved.”

“Right?” Adrian again went on his way- his goal had been the Golden District from the start.

Vanessa wiped off the sweat and followed.
