Ryuji and Alicia hugged each other on her sofa, the soft and cool leather a contrast to their current actions. She became lost in passion and drowned in his kisses. The more she tasted his lips, the more she felt unable to pull away.

Alicia''s hesitation faded, becoming enthusiasm and desire.

Her soft pink lips sucked on the tip of Ryuji''s tongue and swallowed his addictive and sweet saliva while she rubbed her thighs against his hips. Alicia grabbed his back with both hands, clinging to him and digging her nails into his back with a tight grip.

"Nnmm~ Ryuji, we shouldn''t... It''s so late... I don''t think I can stop myself."

"Then why stop, I''ll take care of you and won''t let you face the future alone."

The image of her burning might have caused the reason for his reactions.

Ryuji felt a deep guilt for being unable to save her. Her death forced his growing feelings to increase explosively, and his new evolution made him loathe the thought of holding back.

"Y-You... are you going to eat me up right here?!"

Alicia''s beautiful brown cheeks were dyed maroon. Yet she continued to kiss his cheeks, lips and face even after acting like she was against it. Alicia reached towards his belt, unfastening it with unskilled, trembling hands. "I-I won''t regret it, because it''s with you. Ryuji..."

"I will never let you regret anything, as long as I still breathe I will make sure you are happy, and safe."

"Nn~ kiss me more, you are so strange today and I really like it!"

Their eyes closed with deep breaths, approaching each other with thumping hearts.

Both felt the warmth and scent of each other''s breath and kissed once again. Soft and gentle at first, like savouring each other''s lips, sucking on them like soft, fragile clay moulding to each other''s movements. Then, more intense as their mouths opened, tongues wrapping around each other with their affectionate display filling the room with low humming and wet smacks.

*Bang!*

However, while lost in their passionate kiss and oblivious.

Three elves kicked the front door open with a violent force. The elves stepped into the living room with their light elven platemail armour clanging. They ignored the elves'' presence while their kiss became more passionate. The naughty elven princess put both hands inside Ryuji''s pants.

"What?! Remove him!"

The female elf leading the group of knights gasped, her eyes and mouth open wide. A moment later, two pairs of hands grabbed Ryuji, yanked him off Alicia, and tossed him on the floor. Their tongues formed several sticky bridges of saliva as the lovely elf''s eyes were dazed and filled with a wet, dreamy look.

Alicia watched as the elves dragged him onto the floor. Her mind became blank, and her breathing was heavy and chaotic as she touched her lips and then looked at her sticky fingers.

Alicia was a princess by title, but her mother''s position was enough to shield her from most of her sibling''s schemes. Part of the reason she came to the human lands as a pseudo hostage was to protect her from Ar''Orina or Aria, her human name.

"So what, is it wrong for Alicia to love me? She''s my woman, and no one can tell me otherwise."

"Love? Don''t be stupid—elves only mate with elves, and if any elven women were to sire a child with something unclean and filthy such as you, then they are exiled from our glorious nation. You, a human, don''t deserve to even look at an elven woman, much less touch her.

The moment she insulted Ryuji, a pair of arrows infused with wind and fire shot past her sister''s face, slicing her cheeks and tearing Aria''s barrier with ease.

"Don''t you dare speak to him like that, you''re the one who doesn''t deserve to stand before him, much less speak his name!"

"You dare, Ar''Ciela?! That''s it. I am going to drag you home so our council can judge you and rid the kingdom of both you and your weak mother, then burn this filth to ash!"

"Sister, you can''t do that!"

"What can''t I do, Ar''Ciela? Did you think your mother was still the paragon of our tribe? She is nothing but a sick, and useless old woman!"

Ryuji''s eyes sharpened, his hands gripped tight, and a deep blue flame began to burn within his eyes. This moment was the start—in his visions, he couldn''t stop her from being taken; this elven princess was equal in strength to a Rank-A knight.

''Since it''s come to this, I won''t hold back!''

"Manifestation: Demon Lord''s Realm!"

The instant he made the choice, his body grew several inches, and a black and red aura wrapped around his body.

He stood over seven feet tall and entered his demon lord form of warning as the entirety of Alicia''s home transformed. His Realm formed a black bubble around it. Across the bubble''s surface were screaming faces, blood and flames flickering to stop anyone from escaping.

"H-How... A demon king.... how is there two?!"

"Kill him! He must be the one that existence mentioned!"

"No, he''s far more powerful than she mentioned. This power... although young, he is a true Demon King!" Orina''s face turned pale; she watched one knight lose his sanity and run into the wall, only for his flesh to tear, bleeding profusely while a flame started melting him as he rolled on the ground screaming.

Meanwhile, Alicia stared at Ryuji, who stood in front of her body, protecting her... then she heard his feelings and thoughts towards her.

A little like how Ryuji could hear their hearts and desires during sex... She could hear his current desire, and it made her heart race, skipping beats as she held her bow tight, no longer scared of her sister.

''If I can''t protect you in the current future, then I can at least protect you now and desperately try to grow stronger so I can change it!''
