Demon Lord: Erotic Adventure in Another World

Ryuji stepped forward, his hand leaving Yumiko's while focused on the enemies ahead.

"Focus on your survival. These monsters are small and fast, yet weak. I can take their hits, but you will suffer scars. Instead, use your speed, and you should be able to crush them all."

"Eh... Ryuji, are you planning to take all that damage with your bare body!?" Yumiko's voice almost alerted the monsters because of her shock.

"The more damage I take, the stronger and more deadly my class makes me."

"I see, sorry..."

He twisted around and stroked her soft cheek. Ryuji rarely felt others' concern, and thus, hearing her apology and concern made him feel strange.

"It's okay... thanks for caring."

Yumiko blushed before stepping back. The torches hid this from Ryuji, who turned around and grasped his axe, clearly entering combat mode.

She placed her hands on her chest, feeling her heart racing more than when the goblins attacked them earlier.

Ryuji rushed into combat, which forced her to dart after him with light steps and confusion.

"But he's human..."

The sticky mud and crackling flames drowned her voice.

Ryuji guided them through the corridor.

"Keep an eye out for enemies that attack those two, Yumi."

He then lifted his axe over his shoulder, allowing him to counter an enemy who attacked him easier as Ryuji dashed forward with wet steps.

"I'll take the largest group—there should be more this time!"

"..."

Yumiko watched his back, but before she could speak, the goblins began to scream and shout in excitement.

Their high-pitched squealing and strange folk-like songs now sounded like battle songs and shouts.

However, Ryuji didn't care—his left hand gripped the shaft of his axe, while his right remained loose just under the head.

'Chop, slice... and cut!' Ryuji's thoughts, like a chant, helped him focus as the goblins charged.

Their bodies splashed the mud and filth across the chamber, five goblins with a sixth in the back, but they were too slow to react...

Her beautiful figure suddenly appeared beside the sixth goblin; Yumiko attacked with graceful movements with a solid fist, hitting the goblin's face with a crisp crack.

Before, Yumiko's clone appeared and grabbed the goblin from behind.

Yumiko's shadow clone used her strength to seal the goblin's movements and pull it to the ground, locking it in place with a crack.

The main body followed up by stomping on its throat and slicing apart its flesh with her sharp claws, breaking the goblin's neck with a disgusting sound.

Ryuji didn't bother looking; his axe chopped horizontally—like a merciless reaper. It tore apart two goblins, their weight and flesh slowing the blow and causing his muscles to tense.

Despite his full strength, the blunted axe barely cut through their bodies, using its superior weight.

'Two... I need a sharper axe...'

He twisted his body, pushing his left leg forward while enduring the pain from his wound, as he smashed a third goblin with the head of his axe, crushing its face with a gruesome crack.

'!!!'

Ryuji then felt the wind of two clubs rushing towards his side—using the heavy pole of his axe.

He blocked most of their damage, but the force pushed his body through the slimy mud, almost toppling him over while their mouths drooled with smelly saliva.

"Hah!"

With the pressure of their clubs causing his wound to open, he pushed them back, flinging their bodies back with sheer power.

As they staggered, he swung his axe around his head, building momentum before swirling it towards them.

The axe created a ghastly howl while the goblins smashed their clubs into his abdomen, only for their bodies to be swiped off the ground, necks torn apart by his brutal swing that abandoned all defence.

Suddenly, a female voice sounded in Ryuji's head, confusing him.

[Avoided Fatal Blow - Shadow Fox Tattoo]

Ryo and Akari held their torches filled with terror as they watched Ryuji like a monster from hell, killing over four goblins while using his body like a sponge.

Then Yumiko split in two and killed a goblin in such a cruel fashion.

"Oh, my god... I'm so scared!"

"Don't worry... He won't let us get hurt!" Ryo said, trying to comfort Akari, who looked pale like a ghost.

However, both of them were trembling.

Ryuji felt exhausted—while leaning on his axe, he felt a strange burning sensation in his chest.

The feeling seemed to be something different from poison and stopped him from thinking about the fatal blow message he had heard.

[Absorbed Goblin Genome - Created Goblin Tattoo (Uncommon)]

Yumiko swayed her hips while walking towards the group—she watched Ryuji while her clone followed her, holding the goblin's severed ears.

This showed that her skill was usable in battle.

"Ryuji, are you alright? You look a little pale."

Before he could answer, the dull stone that Ryo held flashed rapidly before the entire group suddenly found themselves back in the training yard.

The knights stood watching them with a shocked face, taking a moment to accept what had happened. Although they were waiting, it was likely the hero party...

"How is it you returned first!?"

Alan looked genuinely shocked before Ryuji removed the ears of the goblins they had collected and handed them over without words—all eighteen of them.

'I can't believe I missed a goblin... There were seven in that opening, and Yumiko killed two, saving my ass...'

"..."

Ryuji didn't respond because he heard a strange message in his mind.

[Congratulations, you levelled up!]
