15 minutes later.
''Ahahaha! I should've expected it.'' Minerva laughed. She folded her arms under her plump breasts and asked, ''And what about the adventurers?''
''I have a way to make them come here. We just need to deal with the high-ranking ones. I don't think there will be more than two B-Rank adventurers in this province. You two can deal with them.''
The Dark Knight and the Necromancer nodded. They were both quite confident in their power.
''There should only be a bishop and a paladin at the Karsuda Diocese now.''
''Yes.'' Ash confirmed.
''I'll be going there with the wyvern. Ruxa,'' Jake turned to her.
''Do you have any way to contact that 'mistress' from here?''
The green-eyed gorgon shook her head. Jake clicked his tongue. It appeared he would have to send a messenger all the way to Ardin to contact that gorgon. Jake wanted to gather as many forces as possible.
''Alright then, the meeting is dismissed.'' Jake stood up and told Irene to come with him. The Dark Witch left the room with her master.
Ruxa and Perry hurriedly followed. Ash silently stood up and went outside. He hadn't done his daily training yet.
At last, Minerva went outside. She was still thinking about Jake's cult. He said he wanted to grow it in secret. What was his ultimate goal in doing this? She wondered.
That night, a 2nd Circle Imp left the dungeon and headed toward the volcanic mountain. Ruxa had told it about the exact location of the Saelther Canyon. The Imp was going there to send Jake's message.
…
45th Floor.
''Annhh~ Ah~ Annhh~'' Isa moaned as Jake clapped her ass cheeks with his thighs.
It was the next day, and he was breeding the Spider Queen. She only needed 9 days to form eggs after he gave her his semen.
Pah! Phah! Pah!
He held the monster girl's appendages and powerfully thrusted. Smacking her wet cunt with his large cock, Jake plowed into her canal.
She felt more submissive the more Jake hammered her. For Isa, nothing was more fulfilling than making more babies for her master.
She turned around and squirted. Feeling his large balls crisply smacking her wet pussy, she couldn't stop herself from moaning.
Jake climbed on her appendages and plowed her from above. Isa stretched her hand and pressed her upper body as low as possible.
''A-Annhh!'' She orgasmed as his glans hit her womb.
Phat! Pah! Pakh!
Jake shot his load in her healthy pussy. He kept railing her as his sticky cum overflowed, dripping from her clit.
''Good, stay like that.''
He fucked her until her womb was full with his semen. Isa had a larger body and a bigger womb than most women. It was to accommodate for the production of multiple small, spider eggs.
He spanked her ass after pulling out and told her to turn around. The spider rotated on her appendages. Seeing her master hanging his hard cock in front of her, she immediately understood and began sucking.
''You are good for breeding.''
''Mmnnhh~ Mnnghh~''
Isa kept her mouth tight and didn't speak. His cock went deep in her throat every time he moved his hip ahead.
Jake held the spider queen's crown-like horns and roughly fucked her mouth until he was satisfied.
Her spider babies seemed to be stronger, and they listened to even him since he started breeding her. Jake filled Isa's mouth with his thick, white cum and pulled out.
Isa swallowed the semen and kissed his balls. With white goo leaking from her pussy, she happily thanked him. Previously, she didn't need him to create eggs. But now, Isa solely depended on her master's cum.
Jake wore his pants and told her to rest. While he was at it, he decided to breed the harpies on this floor as well.
Jake had stopped looking at the system's messages these days. He was sure he had gained about a thousand points now. But it seemed so small that he didn't pay attention to it.
''Well, I guess that's the mentality of rich people…'' Jake thought.
Two hours later, he left the 45th floor after fucking all the harpies. The new ones were already as big as 3-year-old humans. They would soon be ready for breeding as well.
Reaching the 66th floor, Jake checked on his pregnant women. As he would leave this dungeon for a short time again, he wanted to know about their condition.
Yunna, Rose, and Elena already had a fully grown baby inside them. It was a matter of weeks or even days before their delivery.
They all begged for him to stay with them during this time. Elena and Yunna were afraid and anxious as this was their first time. Rose had already birthed two children, so she was better than them. Still, she also wanted him to stay.
'I'll have to come back in 3-4 days,' Jake thought. He also wanted to be with them during their delivery.
Jake was eager to see his demon children come to this world. He had big plans for what to do with them.
The wyvern returned to the dungeon the next morning. Droge didn't need to eat anything for a month now.
After practicing some of his skills in the morning, Jake went outside the dungeon and visited the three villages to see how the other women were doing.
In about over two months, they already could not do most of the household chores. He found that the men were doing everything now.
Some women who didn't get pregnant also assisted them. Fortunately, it wasn't the season of harvest or these villagers couldn't have had time for everything.
From young girls to mature women, the ladies of the villages were walking with enlarged bellies. They were all carrying his children.
Jake knew no man had ever experienced how this felt. It was certainly amazing to know that he had made over 100 women pregnant at once.
p 'I might have gotten an impregnation kink…' Jake thought on his way back.
…
The next night. It was a nearly full moon. The mana outside the dungeon was calm until a wyvern roared from the inside.
A large gust of wind swept away the trees as Droge flew outside. Jake was standing on top of it, wearing his usual black robe.
As the creature soared to the skies, its title immediately boosted its attributes. Jake pointed southeast, and the wyvern flew toward the direction with a majestic flap.
Their destination was Gera City where the headquarters of Karsuda Diocese was located.
The city of Gera was a busy place with many visitors. As a provincial capital, its population was over 200,000.
Tonight, with the moonlight illuminating the narrow alleyways and arched buildings of this city, it looked beautiful from above. The flavor of prosperity flowed with the humid wind of this place, marking the last of summer before autumn's arrival.
Inside the Holy Light Church, the Karsuda Diocese. Wearing white priestly robes, Bishop Panchel was looking at the silent street below. His old face had yet to have any wrinkles, but stress was carving some faint lines on it.
It was late at night, and some lights were still flickering in the city. One could see a few pedestrians walking quickly to their homes. Feeling the midsummer wind caressing his face, Panchel was anxious.
He already knew what had happened to the other two paladins. But there was nothing known about Ash. Where had he gone for more than a month? That boy had told no one when he left.
Being a bishop, Panchel wasn't that well-versed in battles. His only hope against that necromancer was the remaining paladin, Orpheus.
Gera also had some nobles, but they weren't that useful. Still, Minerva was bound to come here. Panchel thought. He didn't understand why the countess had turned out to be like this. The bishop could only pray to God for that.
Rwarrrghh!
At this moment, a loud booming sound suddenly came from the northwest area. The bishop sensed something extremely dangerous approaching the city.
His palms left the railings as he turned around and ran. Climbing the church's bell tower, Panchel looked at the sky. He used a divine miracle to enhance his visionary capabilities and saw a huge wyvern.
''Dear god…''
Panchel staggered. He turned around and touched the large bell. Imbuing it with his bestowed Divine Powers, the bishop did a prayer.
The bell rang with a loud sound which echoed throughout the ends of Gera City.
Even though it was nighttime, every resident, traveler, adventurer, and merchant heard this. They came out from the houses and a commotion immediately spread all over the city. This was the signal of a life-threatening danger.
On the other side of the city. Orpheus, the paladin, flew and contacted the bishop with his Divine Sense. Finding out that a wyvern was heading this way, Orpheus frowned deeply.
It was abnormal for a monster to reach this deep into the human settlement. He heard another roar, its intensity greater this time. At this speed, it would be here in no time.
Orpheus felt a sense of extreme urgency and reached the Adventurer's Guild building. Calliya, the Guild Master, was already outside, looking far away. She was a dark elf archer at the 4th Circle.
''Ready your forces, quick!'' The paladin urged as he hovered above her using a flying skill.
Calliya frowned and rose to the air as well. She could see someone riding that wyvern.
''There is not enough time to evacuate!'' The elf woman breathed deeply. She lifted her longbow and pulled its bowstring.
A magical black arrow manifested from the mana around. It was her signature ability, The Sky Piercer. The bow bent as Calliya pulled the string to its maximum limit and released the magic arrow.
Whoosh!
She wasn't targeting the wyvern but the man standing on top of it. Being a dark elf gave her a natural Dark Vision ability. Seeing his horns had made her think of something ominous.
The bell rang for the second time. The guards had already climbed on the city walls, and were looking in the direction where the roars were coming from.
''I-Is that a d-dragon?''
They could only see the faint outline of a flying monster. Each had a torch in hand. They were mostly 1st or 2nd Circle warriors. There were only two 3rd Circle Knights stationed here.
Usually, that much would be enough to regulate the city and even save it from sieges. One 3rd Circle being was more than enough. However, in front of such a calamitous enemy, they all felt nothing but fear.
At this moment, an arrow zoomed past their heads. Their eyes followed it, and they saw the silhouette of a person on the flying monster.
''Hmm?'' Sensing something coming his way at supersonic speed, Jake's black irises glowed red.
He didn't bother to use the Sphere of Darkness and let the arrow reach him. Jake snorted and the full-power attack of a 4th Circle Archer disintegrated in front of him.
Droge had also used its Wind Control ability to sweep away that arrow. It was so powerful that the wind reached the city, toppling almost all guards standing on the city walls.
Whoosh!
They reached above the skies of Gera City. At this moment, the wyvern's next title, Terror Monster, worked. All the city went into a state of chaos. People were terrified. They shrieked and ran to the other side.
''Fire!''
On the ground below, Calliya shouted, and a hundred or so 1st Circle archers shot magical arrows. Of course, those arrows couldn't harm the monster above. They were only to distract the wyvern. She knew it was pretty stupid.
''Hah!'' Orpheus kicked the ground and shot up.
His lance shone with a brilliant golden light which gave hope to the people of Gera.
[Dark Fire]
A flame as long as the lance burned from the mysterious man's hand. He summoned a long scythe which bathed in that fire and slashed it downwards.
A loud booming sound burst in the sky. Standing on Droge's back, Jake actually had to take a step back. It appeared this paladin's strength was higher than his.
''What?!'' Orpheus immediately recognized that demonic aura after his first contact with Jake.
Normal priests or knights wouldn't be able to notice it, but he was a paladin. He knew what terrifying evil hid behind that handsome face.
At this moment, Jake's attention went to the ground.
''Divine Thunder.''
The bishop's voice was like a soothing piece of music. However, the crack of thunder left everyone's souls shuddering.
Boom!
Jake lifted his hand, and a thick, black sphere covered his body. Both attacks nullified each other.
Seeing the demon dealing with his strongest divine spell with such ease, Pachel's eyes went wide.
He and Orpheus suddenly felt extremely cold at this moment. It was as if their bones were frozen. They both retreated while shuddering. The wyvern had used Chilly Aura.
Jake clicked his tongue. If he hadn't been pridefully sitting atop this monster, he would have been affected as well.
Whoosh!
A barrage of fire arrows converged on him. They were extremely fast to the point Jake couldn't use any defensive skills. His Negation Aura nullified most of them, but some still cut through his hands and waist.
As he used [Minor Regeneration] on himself, Droge flew down and used Sonic Roar.
Calliya, who had thrown those attacks, immediately covered her ears, and closed her eyes. The flesh on her body vibrated as the shock waves passed through the air.
The roar swept away the fleeing people. It destroyed the houses and roads.
Against such a monster, even the adventurers gathered were thinking about fleeing.
''Do not waver! We must defend the city with our life.'' It was the voice of the city guard's captain.
The paladin fighting Jake looked in that direction and sighed. That was the valor, the courage he wanted in men. But right now, he wished they just ran.
This opponent wasn't something they could handle. If only… If only Sir Jacob or Sir Bors were here. This wyvern wouldn't be wreaking such havoc. Ah, was this going to be his grave…?
''Hah… No!'' Orpheus realized he had lost his will for a moment. What had happened? Why had he thought like this?
Boom!
An explosion rang out and enveloped him. The paladin flew away, his armor bruised, blood leaking out of his mouth. Jake had used Emotion Manipulation, and it had good effects.
''Now!'' Panchel shouted at the priests and priestess below. A milky white light rose from the church's spire and formed a half sphere.
Jake had been occupied by that archer, and was unable to interrupt the process. It happened in ten quick seconds.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Tens of clerics bent their knees and assumed a prayer position. Seeing this, Jake immediately told Dorge to attack the church's building using its full strength.
He then spread his wings and swiped his scythe at the bishop.
Ting!
That milky white half-sphere repelled him. Jake flapped his wings and flew high up. At this moment, the wyvern opened its enormous mouth.
To the bishops and other clerics' horror, it was about to use a breath attack.
''Take cover!''
The paladin rushed and plunged his lance on the ground. The milky white half-sphere seemed to be empowered by his Divine Powers. It looked less translucent now.
Ssss…
An extremely cold, blue vapor shot from Droge's mouth and started freezing the shield.
[Icicle Rain]!
Jake compounded that attack with his own. The sharp shards of ice broke the moment they landed on the half-sphere formed of pure divine powers.
The anxious bishop realized that the breath attack still hadn't broken the holy shield. He turned around and flew to the center of the town. Many people were fleeing south.
He closed his eyes and used [Mass Placate].
''No, you won't!'' Jake caught this scene with his dark eyes. He circled the entire city at his full speed to enter it from the other side, becoming a dark ray of light.

Rwarrgghh!
Droge flapped its large wings, creating a tremendous gust of wind which hit the shield.
The clerics chanting below shuddered, blood leaking from their lips. Their eyes had warm tears as they looked at the sky, waiting for a miracle, a help from god.
However, none of that happened. The monster attacked them with greater ferocity and finally broke their turtle shell.
The church knights slammed their shields in front of the clerics. But it was all futile. With another cry from the wyvern, they were swept away.
However, this was a roar of pain. Droge swiped its tail at Orpheus who had attacked one of its legs.
The paladin's lance filled with divine power had pierced through its scales and dug deep into its flesh. Blood leaked from the monster's hide as it threw Orpheus away.
The green-haired man landed hard on the ground, creating a dent. Cracks spread from the area he was slammed on.
''Ack!'' He coughed a mouthful of dark red blood. That strength… It made him feel powerless.
Still, Orpheus tried standing up. One thing about paladins was that they had extremely high wills. Unless they were injured to the point they could not control their bodies, they would not give up.
''Aaarggh!'' The paladin clenched his teeth, blood leaking from his jaws. He lifted himself from the ground and pointed his lance at the sky, where the Terror Monster was flying.
A ray of holy light shot from the tip of his weapon. Droge roared and opened its mouth wide, shooting another Frost Breath to counter that attack.
From the other side, Jake could see an epic scene of two beams fighting for superiority. It was beautiful in a sense. However, after five seconds of stalemate, the wyvern began winning. It was expected.
Jake swiped his scythe at the empty air and flew straight toward the bishop. Panchel was trying to make the people pray after placating them. If that happened, another holy shield would rise from the church's spire.
Jake had a hunch that it would be much more difficult to attack them if that happened.
[Shadow Spears]!
At all costs, he must not let that happen. Jake quickly attacked as soon as he came within the bishop's minimum range.
The dark spears made of his evil mana cut through the chaotic air of this city and landed on Panchel's back. When using an Area-of-Effect skill, clerics were the most vulnerable.
''No!'' Calliya shouted from the ground. Orphaned at a young age, Panchel had looked after her. Seeing her father-figure falling from the sky broke her heart.
With immense fury, she lifted her bow again and pointed at the night sky. Biting her lips, she finally used her racial ability which she had been hesitant to use.
[Storm's Judgment]!
When the dark blue arrow left her bow, it shot straight to the sky and not the demon. Immediately, dark clouds began gathering and lightning boomed.
A moment later, long spears made of wind and thunder rained down on the city. Jake was in the middle of it.
When the storm spears rained from the sky, Jake used the Sphere of Darkness. He wasn't sure about his pride, but this skill could stop any attack.
Su! Su! Su!
The magical spears were as long as a grown man's height. As they fell down, most of them converged on the black sphere, battering on it with extreme ferocity.
Jake's mana was rapidly running out trying to maintain the Sphere of Darkness. This attack of the elvish archer was extremely powerful. His defensive shield was fully blocking it but he wouldn't last long if this kept on.
'It's Nature Magic…' Jake thought. He suddenly lost his balance in the air and began falling. Clenching his teeth, he spread his hands, eyes burning with power, and enlarged the sphere.
His fall created a large gust of wind which pushed the bricks and roof tiles away.
More spears rained on the place Jake fell. His Sphere of Darkness dimmed, and some attacks pierced through his body, drawing blood. A crater-like small structure formed on the ground.
Jake knelt, feeling the chaotic thunder coursing through his body. Clenching his Black Reaper, he used [Blood Regeneration].
When the thunder spears stopped raining, Calliya rose to the air, to see if she had slayed the demon. She was confident in her skill, but her eyes widened when she saw the demon still standing.
His robes were tattered, but his wounds were healing at rapid speed. Jake swung his huge scythe, cutting the cloud of dust around him.
He kicked the ground and attacked the dark elf, aiming for her neck.
''Hah!'' She hurriedly blocked it with her black bow. A crisp metallic sound rang out. Jake's strength was higher and Calliya flew paces away upon impact, with multiple minor cuts bursting on her body.
Her body slammed a nearby house's door. There were two kids hiding inside. They shouted seeing a bloodied woman.
''R-Run…'' Calliya weakly muttered and pushed herself from the ground.
''Run!'' The dark elf coughed a mouthful of blood. The children jolted and scurried away.

Calliya looked behind and kicked the ground, going another away.
...
Rwarrggh!
On the other side of the city, Droge roared again and bit the paladin's body. Flapping its wings, the creature created another large gust of wind and went higher in the sky.
Above the clouds, it began controlling the weather of the area. Bringing in more dark clouds and gathering those which remained from Calliya's earlier attack. It liked to cause chaos.
''Aaah!''
''Run!''
The people killed each other while running away from the monster even though it wasn't attacking them now.
,m Children were stepped on, elderly pushed away. The city guards, those which were still alive, looked at this scene. Helpless. Terrified. Angry.
At this moment, something fell from the sky. The wyvern had thrown Orpheus' body from that high up. A dent formed on the road where the paladin had landed. The knights were quite near and their hearts scattered upon seeing this scene.
...
Whoosh!
Jake tightly chased after the injured dark elf. This 4th Circle Magic Archer was also running out of mana after using such a powerful skill.
''God, lend me…''
He suddenly heard the bishop's voice. Panchel wasn't dead yet and had secretly followed them. Jake clicked his tongue and rotated his body in the air.
[Demonic Grasp]
The bishop landed hard on a house's wall as Jake used the skill. All of Panchel's bones broke, and he fell unconscious on the spot, unable to complete his prayer.
Jake fell on the ground and an arrow suddenly came his way. Without using his defensive skill, Jake flew straight to the dark elf. The arrow pierced through his right shoulder, pushing him back into the air.
But he just pulled it and flew ahead. His wound began healing as he used [Minor Regeneration]. Equipping Black Reaper, Jake's vitality had increased by 30. The injuries he had gained until now couldn't hinder him as they healed quickly.
It frustrated Calliya at first, but now she felt fear. Her mana was depleted and she could not kill this demon at all. Even though she was a 4th Circle Archer, she felt helpless.
The more arrows she shot, the more her fear increased. She took a step back.
Looking around, this place was a mess. Father Panchel was most likely dead. Orpheus… even he was down. If not for that wyvern, they could have maybe beaten him…
'No, No! I have to run!' Calliya's danger instincts peaked.
She kicked the ground again and landed on top of a broken house. Her steps were nimble as she went towards the less populated area. There was an underground exit out of this city! She had to-
[Blood Control]
''Ack!'' The elf woman suddenly clutched her chest. Her heart was beating too fast. Turning around, she saw the demon near her, cloaking the bright moon with his tall, dark figure.
Hovering above her with his two long wings, his eyes like a predator's, Jake seemed like the manifestation of evil to Calliya. Her eyes bulged and her hot blood rushed.
Her hair stood, and she shuddered. Her lips trembling, Calliya lifted her bow again. But she couldn't lock an aim on the demon even when he was so close.
He was above her, staring into her soul. Tasting her terror, Jake's tongue felt bitter. He wanted to spit but smiled at this moment.
''No…'' Calliya stumbled.
''D-Don't come near!'' Tears came from her eyes. She shouldn't be like this, but her terror increased. The dark elf felt herself going mad.
Jake landed on the ground and walked towards her. Calliya couldn't hear the roars of the wyvern which was destroying the city. Everything faded into the background. Only this man, only his footsteps entered her ears.
''No! No! NO! Aaaaa!'' Calliya held her head. Her legs violently trembled, and she didn't know when she peed.
The demon lifted his scythe after coming in front of her. She was unable to move nor speak. But he didn't swing the blade.
[Degeneration Halo]
The clouds boomed, and it poured. The silver wyvern danced above, its roars synced with that of the skies.
The fight seemed to have stopped below. There were no more attacks, but the people were still fleeing.
In a narrow alley of Gera, Jake stood in front of the dark elf who was kneeling before him. Despite her numerous wounds, the woman wasn't concerned and remained subservient.
To degenerate the mind of someone at the same rank as him was much more difficult. However, because Jake had amplified her fear so much using his [Emotion Manipulation] ability, the process went with no hiccups. The first try was a success.
''Stand up,'' Jake said.
He bought some healing potions from the system and gave them to her. Jake also withdrew a bottle of high-grade Mana Restoration potion from his inventory. He'd kept it in stock for cases like this.
After using [Degeneration Halo], Jake had fully depleted his mana. He pulled the cork of the bottle and chugged the bitter liquid down his throat.
The bitterness he'd tasted from Calliya's earlier fear and now from this potion forced him to make a terrible expression. He could really use a different type of taste right now.
Jake glanced at the dark elf and sent suggestions of love into her mind. That emotion tasted sweet and it would wash away the bitterness.
Calliya didn't have defenses in her soul like Minerva and his ability immediately worked on her. She looked at him with puppy eyes, unable to say how much she adored him.
'It seems I overdid it…' Jake thought, swallowing his sugary saliva. He was still new to manipulating emotions, after all.
''Drink those potions,'' he ordered.
''Yes…'' Calliya blushed foolishly for no reason. She thought it was an act of kindness. But Jake just wanted his servant to remain fully ready for battle.
He turned around. Spreading his senses using [Magipathy], Jake found where the paladin was laying. He knew the man was still alive. Jake had told Droge to not kill and just severely injure the 4th Circle beings.
But before he went to corrupt the paladin, he headed back to the bishop. That cleric would be very useful for him in the coming days.
…
''You are to call me Lord from now on, Panchel Sexton.''
''Yes, my Lord,'' replied the old man. He still seemed too injured to properly speak.
After becoming a Dark Bishop, Panchel appeared to have regressed in age. Looking at his face, no one would believe he was older than 35.
Jake gave the same healing potions to his new servant and said, ''Go calm the masses after healing your wounds.''
It had been much harder to degenerate his mind. Jake had to wake up the man, and then beat him to the point of near unconsciousness. That had been the only way to corrupt this bishop who supposedly had higher Intelligence.
''Stay here until I come,'' Jake told Calliya, and she nodded.
He flew to the sky and came back with Droge. It was having too much fun in the sky.
Jake landed near the place where the paladin lied. A group of city guards were surrounding the man who was on his last breaths.
When the monster came again, they did not run away. It would still kill them, anyway. They would rather die protecting the last moments of Sir Orpheus than pathetically run away.
''Move.''
But they heard a human voice. A tall man dressed in tattered black robes jumped from the wyvern's back. Droge sniffed around, snorted and flew again.
''A Demon…''
''N-No wonder… Haha…''
The men knew they were as good as dead. They laughed nervously, accepting their fates. But none of them moved away from the paladin's body.
Jake stretched his hand and telekinetically peeled away the guardsmen as if they were flies. He exerted pressure on these low-ranked humans with his high mana.
Blood leaked from their mouths as they resisted the immaterial pressure upon their bodies. Unable to move, unable to speak, they could only think of what was going to happen.
However, even their thinking was dictated by Jake. He crouched near the paladin and saw the man still breathing, blinking his eyes.
''Perfect,'' he said and again used [Degeneration Halo].
Using the skill so many times in a row was depleting his mana quickly. Jake could have gathered the three 4th Circle beings together and used the halo once.
But that would put too much strain on his psyche. That's why he hadn't tried it. Even a single 4th Circle person at once required the full power of his soul. At present, he could keep the numbers high only with 1st or 2nd Circle beings.
Paying no attention to the guards whose minds were also being corrupted, Jake stared at the paladin. Orpheus' injuries were too heavy for him to put up any fight.
The wyvern had nearly broken his will, and that worked for Jake's benefit. He found that the demonic marks were smoothly appearing on Orpheus' face.
The paladin's eyes became fully white, and he opened his bloody mouth, making deep sounds as if his soul was being sucked.
The process of degeneration was different for everyone. Orpheus twitched from time to time. When the color of his irises returned, they weren't the usual brown, but dark red. Jake could also see flickers of pink in them.
He looked around and saw that the guards were now kneeling, fervently keeping their heads down.
[Ding! Eight Individuals successfully corrupted.]
The paladin smiled crazily, as if he was possessed and tried standing up. He felt extreme pain doing so, but paid it no heed. Jake stopped crouching and placed his boot before the man's face.
He then hit the ground with the end of his scythe's handle. A magic circle appeared below him and Orpheus.
The then paladin, now a Dark Knight, found his wounds healing at a rapid speed. Unlike Ash, this man didn't have an apathetic face. Jake's power fascinated him.
The corrupted seed in his mind made him practically worship the demon. Orpheus touched his new master's boots with his forehead and assumed a kneeling position like the others.
After Jake finished using his Blood Regeneration, he stored his scythe back in the inventory. The new Dark Knight wasn't fully healed, but Jake didn't use the skill again.
In his opinion, the man was cured enough for him to use.
''What is your name?'' Jake asked.
''Orpheus Milton.''
He nodded after hearing this and rose to the air. ''Go to the church building and gather all the nuns, as well as the priestesses.''
''And you seven,'' Jake turned to the city guards. ''Help the people. Say that Sir Orpheus, the brave paladin, has injured and chased the wyvern away. Go give hope to these people.''
They left as soon as they heard him.
'That should make it easier for Panchel to convert the city dwellers,' Jake thought with a wicked glint flickering in his eyes. There was a reason why he let Droge terrorize these people.
The sun peeked out from the eastern flatlands after a while. Jake rounded the city and told Droge to return to the dungeon. With the higher ups corrupted, this city and its residents were practically his now.
Jake changed out of his tattered robe and wore a new one. It was red and made of stronger materials. It also had magical properties like never getting dirty and fitting to any shape of body.
Hovering above the church building, he looked at the state of Gera.
Gera's residents were calming down after they stopped hearing the roars of the monster. The corrupted bishop was going around helping the people. The city guards brought some volunteers and spread news that the calamity was gone.
While they did so, the bishop subtly told everyone it was the blessing of the Lord. Brave Sir Orpheus prayed to the Lord and was bestowed divine powers to ward off the terrible creature.
There were many things unexplained about this. How could a 4th Circle Paladin even chase a 5th Circle Wyvern? If God wanted to help, why didn't He smite the creature before it could harm anyone?
Well, no one talked about that. People were dumb, they just knelt and prayed to the rising sun. Even the timing was great.
The rays of sunlight were like a sign of goodness, and no one paid attention to the shadows coming along with it. A bell rang all over the city again. This time it signaled that people may return to their homes.
Jake descended from the church's top and landed on the street. He glanced at the church building which remained intact despite being the focus of the attacks. It was because of that holy shield.
Inside the building, about 30 Priestesses and nuns were waiting upon the orders of Sir Orpheus. They had seen how he battled against the wyvern and had nothing but admiration and respect for him.
He didn't even seem that hurt!
At this moment, someone entered from the front door. Dressed in shiny red robes, he was a tall, black-haired man with a square-shaped face.. His eyes were dark as a starless night sky, and he had horns.
Two curved horns on his head.
An old nun suddenly shrieked. Jake pointed at her with his forefinger and said, ''Pew.''
The woman's heart burst and she died on the spot. He had no use for a dried up pussy.
The priestesses reacted a moment later and attacked him with different purification spells. Jake just laughed. Every attack directed at him disappeared.
The church's interior was bright in the morning. Jake smiled seeing the women dressed in black and white clothes. Some had a staff in their hands while some didn't.
''What a cute group,'' he commented and walked forward, invulnerable to everything they tried.
However, when he reached near the altar, the cross at the front started emitting a holy, golden light. Jake found his skin becoming hotter, as if was about to be burned. Yet he didn't fear that and entered the sanctuary.
To the horror of the priestesses and the nuns, the demon remained unaffected. The bit of divine power collected from those who prayed here fell short against his [Negation Aura].
He began killing the older women whom wasn't interested in fucking. They cried and begged, but he was merciless. With a snap of his fingers, he burned three at once. The dark fire ate their dead bodies, leaving not even a pinch of ash.
The women tried running but Jake stretched his left hand behind him and shut the large doors of this church. They could do nothing but stare, tear-faced and shuddering.
Seeing such an act left their hearts shaken. Pain cut deep into their fragile souls. They plopped on the ground and covered their mouths. They held their chests and cried.
Even an emotionless man's eyes would moisten standing in the middle of this scene. Yet, Jake looked around and smiled.
''What a beautiful scene.''
He licked the insides of his cheeks. His mouth tasted unbelievably sour.
Jake pulled a chair meant for the most important priest and sat on it. The surrounding women backed away with trembling legs.
[Malefic Enchantment]
''Your Lord is here, where are you going?'' Jake said, clicking his sour tongue. The moment these female clerics looked at him, they seemed bewitched.
A sugary taste spread from Jake's tongue and mixed with the sourness. It felt like he had just drank lemonade. He was having fun making them adore him.
The women were conflicted. Why were they loving this demon who gave them so much pain? They were God's servants with a duty to banish evil and spread goodwill.
''Let's add something more.'' Jake stood up and leisurely approached them.
[Ding! You have equipped the title "Pleasure Demon." Females within a 50-meters-radius from you will be aroused.]
At the same time, Jake stopped manipulating their emotions. Now they felt horny for him, and a rich spiciness washed away the previous tastes on his tongue. Despite not wanting to, the young priestesses and nuns crawled toward him.
They ripped their clothes and began wantonly touching themselves. No man had seen their breasts and vulvae yet. It was quite an enticing sight.
Jake chuckled and climbed the altar. They stood up and followed him, but suddenly jolted when he kicked the table meant for worship. Jake withdrew a large, circular mattress and placed it on the altar.
He faced the cross on the wall which was still emitting the holy light. Kneeling in a prayer position, he unbuttoned his pants and whipped out his dick. Jake then turned around and pointed at a blonde girl wearing black nun's clothing.
''You, come here.''
The girl felt a deep desire for sex, yet she was still crying. When she saw his rod, the girl swallowed a mouthful of her saliva. The others did the same. Jake looked into the blonde girl's eyes and called her again in an enticing voice.
She bit her lower lip and slowly climbed the altar. Jake pulled the girl once she came closer. She trembled again, feeling a man's touch.
He lifted her skirt and squeezed her teenage ass.
Pah!
Jake slapped it, and the nun squirted. The women below could not hold back and moaned, squirting themselves.
Jake looked down from the raised platform. The supposedly pure women were now rubbing themselves, completely forgetting who they were. Because they were scared, they didn't approach the demon unless he called.
Yet they still wanted to be fucked by him, so they waited, moaning with tearful faces.
Standing on the altar, Jake held the head of the girl who looked at him. She sat on her squirt, wetting her tender ass and thighs. The nun's tunic was torn here and there.
Jake held the girl's pointy chin which reached just over his balls. He rubbed her soft pink lips, brought his cock closer and said, ''Open your mouth.''
