Smooth Operation
"W-Who might you b-be!? W-What do you w-want!?" Asked Haruhime with a trembling voice.
'Oops! I guess a got a little bit too much into it and made her scared anyway . . .'
'Maybe I can just say a cringey line? Those that make innocent anime girls swoon for some reason.'
"Well my dear enchanting little fox . . ." Nox started making Haruhime blush.
"Since no hero seemed to be available to save a beauty like you . . . The big, bad monster had to take it upon himself to do it~" Nox continued, making her blush even more and start looking around wondering what to do.
"So . . . Want to be the princess trapped in my evil tower~?" He asked teasingly, holding out his hand to her.
'There was no hero to save me . . . I didn't think I was worthy of it anyway . . . But perhaps just perhaps . . . I'll be able to find my happiness by the side who the villain who actually cared . . .'
Thinking this and still blushing, Haruhime chuckled at Nox's cheesy lines and, with a smile while stammering, she opened her mouth as she reached out to take his hand.
"I-I d-don't think I'm fit to b-be a p-p-princess but . . . If I can be y-your e-evil q-q-queen . . ." She trailed off without being able to finish her line.
'GG t ez!' Thought Nox as he pulled her by her hand into a hug and whispered in her ear teasingly.
'I'd love to have a seductive fox queen by my side~' Almost making her pass out from embarrassment.
Nox then picked her up in a princess carry and and activated his Invictus Shade again.
"Time to go!" He said
Haruhime just held on, happy and embarrassed, with no more words to say.
Activating his Medium Shift Nox started falling through the floors. Unlike him, other would not be able to take the burden of Shadow Shifting, so during the magic's creation, he had to design it in a way that he could instead take on an additional burden instead but it took a greater toll than he expected. He honestly felt that he was taking more than double of what he was dealing with before.
Regardless, he toughed it out and finally got out of the building and after bringing Haruhime to a hidden corner and draping an Invisibility Cloak onto her, he spoke.
"I need to go get and get Aisha since she got into some trouble, so I'll need your help."
"Trouble!? Because she broke the Killing Stone right . . .? For me?" Haruhime said, making Nox just nod to her words.
"How can I help?" She asked with conviction.
"You just need to use your level boost magic on me and I'll be able to beat the toad faced freak guarding her."
Haruhime became a little worried due to hearing how strong said freak was from Aisha. She had actually caught glimpses of some of her rampages but then thought her mighty saviour was so great, there was nothing to fear and just said "Mhm!" and started chanting her spell Uchide no Kozuchi, the powerful level boost as Nox watched with great interest.
When she had finished, Nox could feel the new power, coursing through him. Even though he hadn't reached his goal of 9999 in every stat since he became a Level 2, he was already in the thousands and now, Haruhime boosted him to the point he became a Level 3 in the thousands as well. Nox felt like he could take on the world even though it was very far from the truth.
He then faded into the shadows once more as he made his way to the Belit Babili dungeons where Aisha was being held. Meanwhile, Haruhime who was lelt hiding, thought.
'He's pretty heroic for a villain isn't he?' With a happy smile on her face and a slight blush gracing her smooth cheeks.
A minute or two later, Nox was back at Aisha's cell. Unsurprisingly, Phryne was still at it, it made him gain a newfound respect of Aisha's resilience and strength of spirit. in the original series she toughed out all of this and still was a fun girl to hang with despite being a total thot.
'So long as she becomes a Nox exclusive thot, I can honestly say I'd love to be with her. I mean, there's a sense of conquest and achievement when you no no other man has done what you just did with a girl but there are also a lot of pleasures that an experienced woman can give you.'
With these frivolous thoughts in his head, the Shadow Shifted Nox readied the FU Dagger in his left hand. Even with the protection of his Invictus Shade, he could still feel the curse of the dagger start to corrode the skin of his hand over his gauntlet.
'I have to settle this with the first blow.' Nox thought as he searched for the best possible moment, the moment where the abomination struck her last blow before a her rest period, that was his perfect chance to give it a decisive strike.And so, just as Aisha fell unconscious after one last strike from the toad faced monstrosity, Nox struck.
Archon skill boost running at maximum intensity, Berserk magic at the highest rank Nox could handle without losing his mind completely, Sanguinare Vampiris active with a Blood Art called Blood Buff consuming the energy in his blood pool to boost him and his Invictus Shade at maximum power with all the energy focused on his cursed dagger.
Phryne Jamil, captain of the Ishtar Familia, was a Level know for not only her rotten personality and despicable actions but also for her immense endurance, resistance and healing power. In the original series, she took a full powered blow from an angry Ottar and lived to tell about it so one can imagine how much punishment she can take.
However . . . Before the FU Dagger whose namesake even applies to its user, all of it only served to prevent instant death and as such, prolong her suffering.
Nox drove the cursed dagger from stealth, right into her left kidney with zero mercy. The effects were instant, the abomination was writhing on the ground utterly crippled and in so much pain, she couldn't even cream out. Her skin rotted, her blood boiled inside her veins, her eyes melted and her organs were corroded as she slowly approached her rightly deserved end.
Just before she fell completely into unconsciousness, the beaten Aisha smiled with pleasure at her tormentor's miserable appearance on the ground before her.
Unfortunately, the toad was not the only one suffering. Although to a lesser degree, specially with the protection from his magic, Nox's left arm who had held the dagger was also suffering from similar effects and applying his Incomplete Panacea to it only helped attenuate the symptoms. All he could do, was focus his Invictus Lux on the affected area to slowly cleanse it.
'FUCK YOU! YOU BITCH, WHORE, MOTHERFUCKER BORN TO DISGUST THE WORLD JUST BY EXISTING! i BET YOU HAD SUCH AN EASY TIME IN THE DUNGEON BECAUSE ALL THE MONSTERS WERE JUST PARALYZED IN HORROR AT THE SIGHT OF YOUR FACE! *******************'
Digging deep into his bag of insults, Nox kept creaming in his mind to take his attention of the excruciating pain and just to prolong the abomination's suffering, he poured a cursed potion he made that heals wounds, poison and curses at the cost of causing excruciating pain.
After a couple of minutes of healing, Nox was now operational again despite being far from fully healed, the FU Dagger was no joke! But now, he was ready to extract every last bit of profit possible from this little adventure of his and a barely alive Level 5, ripe for a nice Excelia Drain was right in front of him, a drop of Status Pick later and Phryne's excelia was leaving her falna at record speeds.
As he continuously drained her excelia, Nox could see the effects of the the dagger becoming more and more severe as she got weaker and so, to make sure he got as much excelia as he possibly could, he poured more and more Curse Heal Potions on top of the toad.
In the end though, Phryne melted into a cursed, black, mud like, sludge Nox collected for study but now he had to heal Aisha a bit, before finally escaping the red light district with his new beautiful subordinates.
First, he tried healing her but that didn't recover much of her energy or mental exhaustion from her torture so Nox brought out his Incomplete Panacea again but its recovery effects worked far better when consumed and clearly, Aisha was in no condition to do that.
'I guess it's gonna have to be mouth to mouth! There are no perverted intentions here though! I'm just treating her, that's all!' And saying these very unconvincing lines in his head, Nox poured the potion into his mouth and kissed Aisha.
Driven by instinct, she started swallowing the liquid but as she recovered, driven by another sort of instinct, she started french kissing Nox until he pulled away.
"Oh my saviour~! Please allow me to repay you~! But this poor woman only has her body to give to feel free to ravage me anyway you pleaaaase~" Aisha said seductively, with rampant thotery.
