Devil's Rise 99 A Lord's Descen

I blazed through the cavern as a lightning bolt thundering all the way down to the ground.

*crackle*

The sound of thunder echoed throughout the entire cavern as I landed. I'm sure my descent went far and wide. Whatever was nearby should come out now to such a massive noise.

I didn't feel like digging out whatever lay in this massive cavern. It was easier to bring the monsters to me. Judgment was at the ready as I got a lay of the land. This time I would not be so foolish when investigating new surroundings.

I surveyed the cavern, not noticing anything out of the ordinary. The cave was filled with rock and moss. It was a complex, deep, three dimensional-maze with beautiful marble banding and several large streams. It was mineral-rich with cave formations of various colors of blue, green, yellow, and black.

I raised my guard. After seeing the streams and moss growth I knew life populated this desolate cavern. There's no telling what kind of monsters could inhabit such a place. The cavern went on from miles from my estimate, so exploring it would take time.

Unfortunately, I didn't meet the welcome party I had expected. I could hear nothing but the sounds of crickets after I landed with such bravado. They must fear this young lord's power. It's all right, blood will adore my weapon, eventually.

"Blinker, you are an expert in digging through things. What's your estimation of this cavern?" I said as I brought Blinker out from the Codex.

'This place is pretty big, my instincts tell me many powerful creatures populate the local vicinity. I would not travel in this place alone,' said Blinker as he sniffed around.

"Don't worry my cute little bunny, your young lord is here to protect you," I said patting Blinker's little head.

Blinker released his wolpertinger traits and stared at me with daggers in his eyes.

'I've told you before young lord, I am not a bunny!' said Blinker as he twitched his wittle nose.

"Yes, yes. You are the most fiercest of demonic beasts a wolpertinger. You've told me many times my little bunny," I said patting his head again.

My cute little bunny doesn't know his place. It's up to this young lord to ensure he understands that as long as he's around me, he's whatever I tell him he is. If I said you were a cat, don't you dare bark at me.

'Ahh,' said Blinker as he recoils to the power of the chains.

"Now what were you again?" I said with a devilish smile on my face.

'I'm a bunny,' said Blinker as he withdrew his wolpertinger traits.

"And you better remember that," I said as I began exploring the cave with my bunny by my side.

The first day within the cavern was uneventful. I had figured when I came down making all that noise with my thunder it would bring out something to fight me.

However, we encountered nothing of note. We found a few cave spiders within one notch of the cavern but they were simple residents, unworthy of this young lord even bothering to exterminate.

We covered around 3 miles of the maze laden cavern before I called it a day. I brought out the map to get my bearings and see if I could find any landmarks we had passed. Unfortunately, this map was old, and we had passed none of the major landmarks listed for this cavern, so I was at a loss.

I chopped it up to bad luck and spent the evening meditating as Blinker stood watch. I had left Jax up top to look after Summer Flash with his new captive. My original spoils had to be protected, and I didn't want to end up stranded on this island. Jax was all too happy to have the ship to himself with his 'booty'.

The pirate passed out after hearing my proclamation he would be staying alone with Jax. I guess he was overcome with glee. I couldn't understand the mindset of such deviants, so I just ignored him and went on my way.

The second day I hoped to find a worthy opponent to feed Judgment. Sybil was fluttering around today. She finally had recovered from her healing, so she was happy to be out of the Codex to explore the cave. It was truly a beautiful cavern aesthetically. If there weren't vicious monsters in the vicinity, I could consider this a site seeing tour.

I enjoyed the sites of the stalagmites and the rushing waters in various areas. The rich multicolored minerals were also relaxing. It was a tranquil underground paradise, but I could not relax my guard.

On the eve of the second day, I finally came upon a worth opponent!

"Mortal do you find me beautiful?" said the woman's figure that sat in the darkness. Her voice was melodic and hypnotizing. It made me feel a strange calm as I heard it.

"Come into my embrace, I'll give you everything you've been searching for," said the woman's figure in the darkness. I slowly drew closer to the naked woman in the darkness. There was a strange pull bringing me to it from her melodic voice.

As I inched closer near the naked woman, a large dark stinger shot through the dark to my right. I dodged the stinger and threw off the trance that this monster had put me under. The beautiful woman disappeared as I dispelled the trance and all that lay before me was a gigantic scorpion woman.

It was plated with jet black armor with a humanoid top and 8 monstrous legs and two giant tails.

"Interesting, You dispelled my illusion mortal. How do you like my true form? Does it revolt you?" said the naked scorpion lady. She was still beautiful without the illusion, but it was an eerie kind of beauty.

She had tan skin, 6 eyes, and her body was plated with jet black armor. This was a monster hybrid!

Some pervert had mated with a monster to create her. Monster hybrids were taboo. They had the strength and ferocity of monsters, with intelligence to boot. She would make a fine opponent.

"Your beauty knows no equal, your grace," I said, quickly putting away Judgment. There was no need for me to even attempt to fight this monster. She was way above my league.

"You intruded into my cavern disturbing my slumber mortal. What do you want?" said the scorpion woman as she brought her massive body forth.

"I want you," I said.

The only way I could get out of this situation was to be bold and unrestrained. I was at another creature's mercy right now. The fact she had toyed with me so far gave me a bit of understanding of her personality. So I would just go with it. The worst that could happen is I end up dead, anyway.

"You want me, mortal? Interesting, everyone else coming down here searching for treasures of all sorts. Do you think you could handle me?" said the scorpion woman as she came closer to me, shrinking in size, and caressed my face with her hand.

"This young lord has conquered ladies from all walks of life. You wouldn't be the first or the last. But I seek to conquer everyone I find," I said as I grabbed the scorpion woman and pulled her closed.

"Come, mortal. If you can handle my embrace you will live. If you can't you will die like all those that came before you," said the scorpion woman as she pointed to the gigantic pile of bones that stacked within her cavern.

Some of the corpses were fresh, stripped to the bone. No doubt those were the pirates I was so intent on stopping. No grand treasure lay down here for those pirates. They met their deaths in the jaws of this veritable monster. Now it was my time to try to tame it.

This battle would last all night. If I was victorious, I would live. If not, I would perish.

"I'll hypnotize you with this pussy," she said as her jaws swallowed me whole.

"How does it feel to be with a real devil," I said as I gave her everything I had.

"Love is a feeling, quench my desire."

"Give it when I want it. Take me higher."

"You're just a woman. Love is a feeling."

"Cause I'm on fire. Give in to me."

"Quench my desire. Give in to the fire. Give in to me."

I felt my essence flowing through me mysteriously as lightning rained down from the heavens coursing through me as I entwined with the scorpion woman.

"That dick makes my soul smile," she said as she continued to battle with me the rest of the night.

'She has never gotten high like this, with a devil like this. She might want to ride off with the ghost with me. I might have this monster selling her soul to me,' I thought as I gave her my masterful arts.

Tangling with a succubus had made this young lord a master of the bedroom arts. How dare this monster think she could conquer this young lord with her pitiful skills?

I really have to stop this. If this continues, I really will turn into an incubus when I break into Viscount. How could this young lord be some kind of sex devil? No one would take me seriously.

"You pass my trial young devil, I am all yours," said the scorpion woman as she transformed into a humanoid form. There was no trace of her being a monster at all. Her beauty was beyond enchanting.

"My name is Ayla, but you can call me whatever you want, master."
