Apparently, the summoning spell brought my new minions along with me, as Pain and Panic groaned behind me from the sudden shift. My master growled loudly in irritation, baring his fangs at the unexpected company.

“And who do we have here? Show yourselves!”

My two little minions ran forward and stood up straight.

“Pain and Panic reporting for duty, your ugliness.”

He sneered at them and made a shooing gesture.

“Be gone from my sight. Your very existence is a blight upon this castle.”

“Then just stop looking at us… There; problem solved.”

I watched in amusement as a vein popped out on my master’s forehead and just before he said or did something, I waved my hand and dismissed my minions. They would be teleported to my sanctuary and would remain there until I called for them again. My master stood up to his full twelve feet of height and glared at me.

“What did you do? Why did my commands not work on them?”

He inspected me closely and first a sneer passed over his face, followed by a snarl.

“Really?! You thought I wouldn’t notice you had removed my enchantments?!”

He moved to backhand me, but I blocked the blow with my shield. I heard bones snap, and my arm went numb from the impact. My HP had dropped to 8% and my shield’s durability had dropped to 1. I unequipped the temporarily useless piece of equipment and popped my shoulder back into its socket with my free hand. The pain was excruciating and tears leaked from the corners of my eyes, but I never tore my gaze off my master for even a second.

“What am I going to do with you, Allexus? I thought you would have learned your place by now… but it seems that my message last night didn’t get through.”

With his arms crossed over his muscular chest, he tapped one clawed finger on his bicep in irritation.

“On your knees. Now. Lest I cleave you in two.”

When I hesitated, he held out an outstretched hand and his massive claymore appeared in his grasp. I held up my hands slightly and nodded my head. After I removed my armor I got down on my knees. He released his grip on the handle of the sword, and it shimmered and disappeared. His bare feet padded on the stone floor as he made his way to me and brutally grabbed the length of my hair. He lined his erect member with my lips and started face fucking me viciously. I struggled to breathe but managed to find a slight rhythm to his strokes where I could get a small bit of air each time he pulled back slightly. He had removed my gag reflex when he altered my body, so it was no surprise that he took full advantage and forced me to deep throat the giant shaft. He pushed into me so far that I couldn’t breathe, and I felt him pump his hot cum down my throat. He pulled out of my mouth and pushed me to the floor.

Gasping for breath, I glared back at him for a moment before I got on all fours and spread my legs wide for him. I knew better than to fight back, as it would only cause him to hurt me more. I hadn’t removed the enchantment [Sexual Subservience], so my arousal was incredibly heightened and left me aching to be touched by him. I moaned loudly as he slid into my waiting pussy all at once, until I felt his massive balls resting against my clit and the underside of my erect member. He sawed in and out of me savagely, and my legs quivered as I came around the huge cock inside of me. He fucked me roughly for a moment before emptying his balls deep inside of me. When he pulled out, instead of pushing me off of him, he thrust his still erect dick inside my ass. I groaned loudly and came at the sudden intrusion. With one huge hand wrapped around my throat, he pumped into me over and over until he filled me a third time with his demon cum. I honestly expected him to start fucking me in some other cruel fashion, but instead he pushed me to the floor again and stood up.

“Clean yourself up and return to your room. I don’t want to see you until tomorrow.”

I stood up slowly, my shaky legs barely able to keep me on my feet. The rough, violent sex had left my lower body mostly numb, and I used the castle walls to support me as I slowly headed back to my room. As I rounded the corner, Judas saw me and rushed to help me; a look of deep concern painting his face. We made it into my chambers, and he eased me down onto the edge of the bed. He brought a warm, wet cloth and began to wipe up and down my body. Despite the areas he was cleaning being incredibly sensitive, my body was exhausted, and they didn’t respond with the usual arousal; to which I was most grateful. When he was finished, he knelt down beside the bed and looked up at me.

“I’m sorry your master is so cruel. If I had the power to fight him, lady Allexus, rest assured that I wouldn’t hesitate to do so.”

“Thank you, Judas, that means- Wait… did you say my master? I thought he was your master too.”

He smiled at me and shook his head.

“Not anymore. When you removed the [Chains of Command], you also removed his control over me. You are my true master, not him. It was that enchantment that bound me to him. For which, I cannot thank you enough. I have been bound to him for millennia, and you freed me from that. I only hope my service is enough to repay your kindness.”

“You’re welcome, Judas. But I don’t want you to feel like you need to serve me in order to repay me. If I had known about the enchantments sooner, I would have removed them and freed you when I first met you.”

He shook his head and gave me a look of steely determination.

“You misunderstand, m’lady. I don’t need to serve you. I want to. You are a kind, loving Mistress. Very… undemonlike, actually. After thousands of years serving a cruel, sadistic master, I have the freedom to choose my own path; and I choose to serve the one who freed me from my tormenter. He never thought you would remove the enchantments, so he made a grave mistake when he placed me under your command. Now that mistake is the start of his undoing. Within these walls, you can speak freely, as it is enchanted to truly be your sanctuary. I was bound to report everything to him under the effects of [Chains of Command], but now you are the only one I serve. He knows of your intent to try and overthrow him, but he thinks you will succumb to his authority and forever be his plaything. We’ll prove him wrong, lady Allexus, of that I have no doubt.”

He stood up and offered his hand to me to help me off the bed. I accepted it and moved off the edge of the plush mattress. Turning to the wardrobe, he opened it and handed me a long flowing black dress. I put it on (thank god for being able to instantly ‘equip’ items, I couldn’t imagine how difficult it would be to get it on with my wings) and gasped at the beauty of it. It went down to my mid-calf and hugged and accentuated every curve on my demonic body. It had a plunging v neck style that was filled with a shimmery lace that left very little to the imagination. The same shimmery lace material went from the top of my shoulders down to my wrists. I looked in the mirror and gasped. I looked fucking stunning!

“Judas. I- I don’t know what to say! Thank you! Where did this come from? It’s amazing!”

He gave me a very wide smile and showed me his character stat screen. I had never seen the crafting skill tree, and I clicked on it. It showed a wide variety of skills a character could learn, and Judas had mastered every single one. He also had impressive stats for someone who was supposedly a 'demon retainer NPC.'

“Judas, were you always a retainer?”

He shook his head and gave a slight frown.

“I don’t remember much of my days from before this castle, but no; I used to be quite skilled with knives and would have probably been considered more of a rogue type character had I not been captured and forced into subservience. Much like you were, actually. I spent the years honing my crafting skills and mastered each one as time went on. Your master called on me to make various things a few times, but he had since forgotten about my usefulness beyond being a tool for his sexual pleasure.”

I placed my hand on his arm and gave him a look of concern.

“I’m so sorry, Judas. I-“

“Stop, m’lady. You’ve saved me from that life. Let me thank you for that by doing whatever I can to make your time here as bearable as possible.”

I nodded and gave him a small smile.

“Is there anything you need before I level up and save my progress?”

He shook his head wordlessly as he turned me back towards the mirror and began to braid my long crimson hair into a precise intricate weave. When he finished, I turned back towards him and hugged him tightly.

I opened my character menu and stared up at my Level Up screen. I saw that I had amassed enough experience to go to level 28. I had also slaughtered enough of the yellow demons to fill my blood tithe meter once. I looked at my body after the meter reset back to empty and marveled at the small changes. My horns had grown and as I held out my hand, my nails turned into long sharp claws. I bent my elbow and a long, jagged blade extended from the bone. My knees had similar blade growths, and I imagined just how painful it would be to impale someone with a swift knee to their tender parts. Although there weren’t any other physical changes, I was now even stronger and faster than I had been before. Judas threw a knife at my face to prove this to me, and I caught it nimbly between my fingertips. When I hit level 25, I chose a skill from the combat tree called [Stoneflesh]; which would make me practically impervious to damage while it was active. I was truly excited to see the skill in use; especially in conjunction with my new strength and speed. I chose to refine my [Demonfire] spell, making it last even longer and deal even more damage. I finished leveling up by going up to 28 and assigning the skill points evenly. After Judas finished repairing all my gear, I equipped it briefly just to see what my stats would be.

I shifted my body weight and turned to Judas who was standing next to the bed.

“Judas, do you know what my master’s full stats look like?”

He shook his head.

“No, m’lady. I never got the chance to see them. Given what I have seen of his combat prowess, though, I estimate his highest stats to be strength, dexterity, stamina, and defense. The thing that confuses me is how he is able to cast such high level enchantments on everything. Either he has a powerful mage somewhere or there’s a lot more to him than we can tell.

I nodded and considered just where a mage like that would be hidden inside the castle. The only place like that I couldn’t access was his chambers, so if he did have a mage stashed somewhere, that’s where they’d be. I saved my progress, sat up, and gave Judas one final hug before logging out.
