The Damned Demon

Chapter 474 Her Home

474 Her Home

Asher found himself utterly perplexed. His eyes widened in disbelief as he stared down at intricate diagrams of the male anatomy, specifically penises drawn from various perspectives. With furrowed brows, he muttered incredulously, "What sort of joke is this? Or did some drunkard compile this? Is this truly the right grimoire?"

[ Grimoire Name : Tome of the Forbidden Nightmare Sword (Part 1/2) ] "Feast thy eyes upon the Tome of the Forbidden Nightmare Sword, a tome that relishes in the fall of not only the demonic but, more than anything, the radiant! Thine tainted manhood, wielding its unholy girth, shall be the bane of celestial maidens, as thy nightmare rod plunges through their defenses, stealing their light and leaving them craving more sin. This is the only grimoire that would transform thine mortal sword into an immortal sword with a forbidden power that can withstand radiant essence!"

[ Grade: Immortal ]

'What in the name of the seven hells…' Asher felt as if he had to give props to whoever created this grimoire for making it sound more epic than it appeared to be, though the creator had a weird way of writing it.

It really seemed as if they were drunk when they cooked this up.

Yet he actually found an Immortal Grimoire in this shitty place, and it was dusty enough to make it look like nobody wanted such a powerful one?? And where was the second part?

But can his cock really be able to withstand radiant essence if he masters this? He knew so far he had to shut down the mana circuits of Hunters like Rachel and Amelia before having sex with them since he didn't want their orgasm to contain their radiant essence, which could burn or sting his cock.

Beside him, Naida suppressed a soft giggle before stepping closer to peer over his shoulder. She studied the controversial illustrations with mild amusement glinting in her eyes, "Although it might seem far-fetched," she began, "this particular grimoire happens to be one of the oldest within the chambers. There exist many rumors regarding its origin: that it was discovered inside a powerful beast's belly, or that it suddenly came up from the Seven Hells. Whatever people said, nobody really knows where it came from or where the 2nd part is or if it even exists."

Shaking his head dismissively, Asher replied, "People love to make up exaggerated stories about things they don't know much about. I mean, even I do feel this grimoire is quite mysterious and powerful, especially when it's an Immortal Grade grimoire that is even rarer than Deviars. But seriously, these crude drawings? If it's so good, would this grimoire still be catching dust here? Kingdoms would go to war over an Immortal Grimoire. Anybody would."

Chuckling gently, Naida responded, "It's precisely due to these 'crude' depictions that everyone else failed. This grimoire claimed the lives of all who dared attempt utilizing it, instilling fear into anyone who caught wind of its deadly reputation. Over time, people simply chose to ignore its very existence altogether - until now."

Her gaze turned serious as she placed a comforting hand on Asher's arm, "But you are unique. Possessing an immortal bloodline, I firmly believe you alone hold the potential to unlock the secrets of this grimoire."

Curiosity piqued despite his skepticism, Asher questioned hesitantly, "Do you genuinely think this will benefit me? How so?"

With utmost sincerity, Naida elaborated, "Old experts who studied the runes said that if you master it, you can potentially connect a person's soul, mind, and body. It means your little dragon can stand a chance of making people like Esther remember what they have long forgotten or severed." Asher felt greatly interested in her words, though his brows furrowed as he asked the important question, "But would this kill me if I fail? I won't be surprised."

Naida hummed thoughtfully before responding, "You can say it might be worse than death because it will kill your little dragon if you fail...in the best-case scenario."

As they journeyed, the outside world began to transform, making Asher raise his brows.

The crimson light of their realm gradually gave way to a brightness that mimicked the daylight of Earth, a change so profound it felt as though they were crossing into another dimension. Asher's anticipation grew with each passing moment, his heart filled with a mix of curiosity and uncertainty.

Finally, the carriage came to a gentle halt, the sound of its wheels ceasing echoed softly in the tranquil air. Asher stepped out, his feet touching ground that felt both alien and familiar. Before him lay a landscape so lush and vibrant it took his breath away. Meadows stretched out towards the horizon, dotted with wildflowers that swayed gently in the breeze. A fountain, its waters sparkling under the sunlight, stood as a centerpiece among the greenery, surrounded by trees that whispered secrets of old.

But it was the roses that captured Asher's heart—dark red roses, their petals glistening with dew, encircling the entire area in a display of nature's unmatched beauty. He looked up to see skies of azure, the sun hanging like a golden medallion, no different than the one that warmed the Earth he knew.

"Wha...What is this place? How can something so beautiful exist in our world?" Asher's voice was a whisper, a mix of awe and disbelief as his gaze swept across the haven that unfolded before him.

Naida, stepping gracefully just a step behind him, her eyes reflecting the paradise as she said, "This is my real home...at least the one I always dreamed of living in...a place where everything is beautiful and peaceful with nothing to make you sad. I couldn't find such a place in our world, so I built one, even if it's not real. Maybe someday I might get to live in a real one with you," she finished, her eyes briefly glowing with a fervent light as she gazed upon his broad back.

Asher turned to her, moved by the depth of her longing, the earnest desire in her heart to find solace in beauty, to create a sanctuary not just for herself but for the dreams she harbored.

"Naida...I do wish that as well. Thank you for bringing me to your home," he said, knowing it must have taken her a lot of courage to show him this place.

He could see the pride and softness in her eyes as she spoke of her creation, making him feel that there was a deeper reason why she created this.

Naida's expression softened, her face illuminated by the gentle sunlight as she held his hand, "I look forward to that day. For now, I am happy that I can finally show this to someone I care about. Even though I felt happier here, it didn't take away the feeling of being alone. I planned to show it to my children, but I am afraid they might not understand. Maybe I can some other day."

Asher knew why she said her children may not understand. Creating a place that resembles the world of their most hated enemies and calling it 'home' would definitely cause some doubts and misunderstandings, even if it was family.

"During that ambush by the Rustblood Clan at the celebration in the Draconis Kingdom, when I saw that golden light in your beautiful eyes, I felt as if I was standing here, your warmth protecting me just like the sun does for the humans, unlike ours. At that moment, I realized that I had found a second home and that you also belonged in mine. So I couldn't wait to bring you here," Naida said as her bright red eyes peered into his eyes with warmth.

Asher cradled her face, her words warming his heart. He could see that she didn't even care what exactly happened that day other than the fact that his light brought her warmth, and she wasn't even repulsed by it. He gazed at her entrancing red eyes as he said in a passionate tone, "One day…I will make your dream a reality. From that day onwards, you won't have to live in an illusion any longer. That's the least I can promise you," Asher thought about his plans for Earth, especially if he managed to complete the Last Judgment quest and save the demon realm once and for all.

Naida pressed her cheek against his hand while enveloping it with hers, "You have already made most of it come true, and I would be happy enough as long as I get to have moments like these with you forever," Saying so, Naida wrapped her arms around his neck and craned her neck to reach for his lips, making Asher lean in as the two of them passionately kissed amidst the illusory rosy world.
