It had been almost a week since Aveena had ended up staying at the group's home.
In that time, the buxom oni had yet to wake up and instead had been lying on the couch motionless.
Her color was improving bit by bit everyday, but it still was not certain when she would wake up.
The group simply continued to care for her in rotations, taking turns to clean her wounds and change the bandages.
Whenever she woke up, Vermeil just hoped that she would show some gratitude and give them more money.
'It's about time… I have to go soon.'
Indra looked down at his lap and found his beloved wife with his member in her mouth.
Her head was continuously bobbing up and down, and her husband marveled at just how good she had become at this act in such a short time.
A few days ago she relatively clumsy and would accidentally scrape it with her teeth, making it a somewhat uncomfortable experience.
But as a woman who could be known to be rather persistent, she kept trying in the hopes that she could make him feel as good as he made her.
And now, she was more than competent in the act and could swallow him all the way to the base without risk of hurting herself.
She had learned her husband's preferences and sensitive spots so well that she could make him cum in around fifteen minutes.
Although she was still adamantly trying to match the three minutes it took him whenever he went down on her.
Indra looked at the window out of the corner of his eye and knew that it would be time for him to go soon.
"My love… let me up for a moment, I promise to return to you shortly."
'No~'
Enyo's sweet and melodic voice in his head was like that of a prankster spirit, as she kept sucking without ever intending to let her husband go.
For an added dramatic effect, she ran her hands along his exposed chest as she stared directly into his eyes, silently goading him to give her what she wanted.
Indra would never lie and say that he did not love this feeling and this sight, but as of right now he was in a rush and could not fully appreciate it.
"My dear, I will return to you as quickly as I can if you would just..!"
'No, honey~ You have to give me what I need and then I will release you.'
Though he was undoubtedly in a rush, a fanged smile spread across Indra's lips.
"Fine, love… savor it well."
Grabbing Enyo by the back of her head, Indra used her throat roughly without giving her any autonomy.
Twin purple hearts could be seen in her eyes as she felt a familiar throbbing in her throat.
The wetness that was already spilling from her panties nearly overflowed as Indra groaned before he came down her throat.
Happily, Enyo gulped everything down while savoring the taste to the best of her ability, while Indra temporarily saw white.
When he finally recovered, Enyo pulled him out of her throat slowly and relinquished him from her grasp.
She sat back onto their bed and slipped her own dress off, making Indra tempted to stay behind.
However, when he remembered that he would likely have to wait another thirty days for this chance, he decided against it.
"Alright, I guess you can go now… just hurry back so that you can come and take care of me." Enyo said with a sad tone and seductive smile.
Indra briefly marveled at the proactiveness that his wife had developed before pulling on his own pants.
'I wonder if breaking through has such an effect…?'
As implied, Enyo had broken through to the venerable realm a few days ago.
After spending over five hundred years at the peak of the ninth level of the overlord realm, it felt good for her to finally step into new territory.
Although, she was not as adamant about progressing in her cultivation as Indra was.
Her breakthrough had actually happened as they were having sex one night, surprising the cum out of them both.
The two of them could only guess that Indra's new body was somehow also helping her to progress in her cultivation when they lay together, further enhancing her willingness to do so.
But she had already noticed that the benefits she was receiving were becoming smaller and smaller, so she wondered if a breakthrough for him would do them both some good.
After all, at present he was only on the sixth level of the mortal realm.
Indra finally finished pulling on his kimono and opened the window, letting the full force of the cool night air hit him in the chest.
Before he stepped out, he looked back at his wife on the bed and offered her a mischievous yet loving smile.
"No touching yourself while I'm out here."
"Uwah!? So unfair!" She pouted.
Indra laughed as he jumped out of the window before crawling on top of the roof like some kind of demon.
Reaching the highest point of the house, he immediately sat cross legged on the shingles before reaching inside of his storage ring and taking something out.
The black tank of moon touched diamond dust that he'd gotten from the auction house immediately started to glimmer when touched by the rays of moonlight.
Truly, Indra could not have been more elated when he saw this item up for sale.
When utilized properly, it provides a whole slew of effects.
Enhanced durability, strength, and reflexes were all surface level.
When fully integrated, this mesmerizing black sand could also nullify the damage from arcane attacks at the same level as the user by thirty percent.
However, the downside was that the process for acquisition of all of these great things had extremely high risks.
Loss of cultivation, death, permanent paralysis, etc.
Hence why it wasn't recommended for anyone beneath the overlord realm to use this.
But Indra truly did not care about such a thing and as a result was only thinking about the positives.
Lucia did not know the dangers that came with using this, and he had not told Enyo or Keran that he had it in the first place.
He knew that if he did they would be so worried about the side effects that they would never let him use it.
He would apologize for the secrets and excuses he made afterwards, but for right now he just wanted to get stronger to protect everyone.
'Everyone, huh…?'
Using his telekinesis, he opened the large tank in front of him and pulled out the deluge of sand.
Lying down on top of the roof, Indra took in a deep breath before performing a rather unsettling trick.
Using his power of total body control, he opened up enormous holes all across his figure.
Exposing his flesh, bones, organs, and black blood that had been tainted by the old one.
He looked like a frog that'd been opened up in a high school science lab.
Taking a deep breath, he lowered the sand into the various exposed spots in his body.
As soon as he did so, he felt a terrible burning spreading throughout every corner of his being.
Under the light of the full moon above, the dust immediately caught fire and started to melt.
It burned itself into his tender organs, his bloodstream, and the most painful of all his bones.
His spine was the worst, as he could literally feel the molten dust using his spinal cord as a conveyor belt to reach his ribs, arms, legs, and even his skull.
The pain was so horrible that he blacked out several times, but by sheer force of will he refused to cry out.
He had to be mindful of the girls inside, and not scare them by screaming like some kind of banshee.
But when the molten dust finally made contact with his actual brain, his mind did a hard reset before he fainted once again, not showing any signs of waking up.
