Villain MMORPG: Almighty Devil Emperor and His Seven Demonic Wives

Villain Ch 67. I Don't Want to be Anyone's Plaything

There was a brief moment of silence as Allen processed her question, his face betraying nothing. And then, without missing a beat, he answered.

"I was just having sex with your mom," he said bluntly, his words devoid of any hesitation or shame. It was all part of the game's mechanics and character attributes after all.

Allen's blunt response made Vivian's heart skip a beat. A part of her felt a tinge of jealousy that the girls had already set their sights on him, and she couldn't help but wonder what it would be like to have him for herself, even if it was just in the game. However, she knew it was selfish of her to feel that way.

Vivian quickly pushed aside her thoughts and focused on the task at hand. She knew they had to work together as a team if they wanted to succeed in the game, and she didn't want any personal issues to get in the way of that.

Zoe's voice was low and uncertain as she spoke, her eyes darting from Allen to Vivian and back again. She could sense that something was amiss, but she didn't know what to make of it.

"I know. But what happened other than that?" Zoe asked again, her tone urgent. She knew that her mother had just been with Allen, but her reaction shouldn't have been like that.

Allen's forehead creased in concern. "Did something happen to her?" he asked, his mind racing with possibilities. From Shea's previous reaction, he wasn't sure if she was mad at him, so he was certain that this was something else. But what could it be?

Zoe shook her head from side to side, her brow furrowed in confusion. "I don't know. I'm not sure either. What I do know is that she was acting really strange," she said, her voice trailing off. She didn't know how she could explain her mother's state of acting like a teenager just in love. It was too weird for Zoe. It didn't make any sense at all.

For a moment, there was silence. Then, Allen spoke up. "Is it because I refuse to be her virtual sugar baby?" His words hung heavy in the air, each syllable dripping with uncertainty and doubt.

The reaction was immediate. Zoe and Vivian turned to him with wide eyes and gaping mouths. "You what?!" Their surprise was palpable. They couldn't believe what they had just heard. After all, Allen was far younger than Shea, and Shea's wealth was legendary. They had assumed that Allen would jump at the chance to be her virtual sugar baby, but they were wrong.

Their overreaction made Allen pause. He looked at Zoe and Vivian, unsure of how to react. Finally, he spoke up. "I don't see the appeal," he said, his voice low and hesitant. "I don't want to be anyone's plaything."

"Then what did you do to her?" Zoe asked, her voice laced with intrigue.

Allen paused, uncertain how to respond. "I dominated her?" he said hesitantly, his words trailing off into uncertainty.

Zoe's eyes widened in shock. Suddenly, everything made sense. She understood now why Shea had acted the way she had. It was because he had dominated her, taken control of her in a way that she had never experienced before.

"Oh my God," Zoe muttered under her breath. This was the first time she had ever heard of her mother allowing a man to dominate her, and it left her feeling equal parts intrigued and unnerved. "Allen, you are really something," she added, her voice tinged with awe and admiration.

He looked at her with confusion. "Something what?" he asked, unsure of what she meant.

"You know, my mom would never allow that before, yet you did it..." Zoe admitted, her voice trailing off into a whisper. It was clear that she was struggling to find the words to express her thoughts.

Allen shrugged, his shoulders rising and falling with an easy grace. "There's always a first time for anything," he said, his voice low and even. From Zoe's reaction, it didn't seem like he had done anything wrong, but he guessed that she might have stumbled upon Shea in an embarrassed state or something. Since it was an unusual sight, she decided to ask him.

Zoe glanced at Allen for a moment before she sighed, her breath coming out in a soft, wistful sigh. "Indeed," she admitted, her eyes downcast. That went for her too. She hadn't expected Zoe and her mother to fall in love with the same man, but it had happened nonetheless. Still, it wasn't like she was going to let go. Instead, she had no interest in releasing Allen at all. She wanted to get to know him better.

'Maybe a date is a great idea,' thought Zoe. Okay, that's clearly too soon. A hang-out might sound better,' Zoe thought.

Allen's voice broke the tense silence, drawing the attention of Zoe and Vivian. They turned to look at him, their eyes lighting up with a newfound sense of purpose.

"So, are you guys ready?" he asked, his voice low and steady. "We should go now," he reminded them not to dwell too long on this.

Vivian nodded eagerly. "I'm ready," she said, her voice tinged with excitement. She decided to divert her attention to the hunt.

Zoe, on the other hand, had been lost in thought, her mind dwelling on the strange feelings she had been experiencing toward Allen. But she knew that she couldn't let her personal feelings get in the way of their leveling. They had a task to complete, and she was determined to see it through.

"I'm also ready," she said, forcing a smile onto her lips. She decided to swallow her words, knowing that it wasn't the time or place to discuss her conflicted emotions.

"Okay." With a nod, Allen turned and began to make his way toward the entrance of the crypts. Zoe and Vivian followed closely behind, their footsteps echoing through the halls.
