“Don’t touch anything,” Ember warned everyone else as Beatrice’s party descended into what could hardly even be described as abandoned alleys anymore. Their path was ever more frequently blocked by piles of giant stone blocks and general ruble from buildings that collapsed under their own weight years ago and tumbled on top of one another. Ember made turns from one obstacle to another that made for a maze that would be hard to navigate even with a map.
The times they walked through holes in walls were even more unnerving whenever a single overturned pebble made an echo deep into the darkness, making Beatrice continuously look up for rogue rotten beams that she felt would any second fall on her big dumb head for walking into such a dangerous place. Some collapsed load-bearing structures had to be maneuvered while making sure not to disturb them as they still somehow held part of a building half-upright.
“How much more of this?” Liam moaned.
“Quiet!” Beatrice shout-whispered. For all she knew even a loud noise could set off a chain reaction and she tried to keep the odds as much in her favor as she could in this situation.
Ember pointed up ahead into darkness within darkness.
No one could tell what was so special about that particular patch of void that devoured Ember’s light and let nothing out. But as they approached, all became clear.
Another tunnel, Beatrice sighed. She knew it wasn’t quite true but she couldn’t help but feel like half her time in this world was spent in one tunnel or another. And if not a tunnel, then some underground lairs of varying sizes. She even pretty much expected it. After all Beatrice and Ember left the palace through the tunnels, and surely, they weren’t about to stroll through the front gate. But still! And later they had The Pits on the menu too!?
As Beatrice followed Ember into this newest, tunnel that blended together with all the others, she felt a shift in her priorities in this world. After dealing with the main oppressors and saving those she cared about, rather than save the citizens, or solve hunger, or defeat the demons, Beatrice daydreamed about issuing an order to seal every last tunnel and mine in and under this city that she could find. It would have a practical use too! So that demons can’t use them! Beatrice justified her little frivolousness to herself.
At least there was enough space for them to move freely unlike back in the leftovers of the old city, and without worry that their quest would end by falling rocks, as the tunnel itself looked to be carved with effort through solid rock and with enough width to fit three burly men shoulder-to-shoulder.
“Not that long from here,” Ember said, rather upbeat. “Maybe we could even make a quick detour and pay a visit to the King to inform him that we killed the demonlings just as he asked, eh, Beatrice?”“As if!” Beatrice brushed off Ember’s joke and wondered if Ember was literally counting seconds till she could leave Olivia with Lucarad. But then Beatrice remembered that she did in fact have an actual quest in her system.
How long ago was it? Beatrice wondered about the first quest she ever got a brought it up in her mind’s eye.
| Royal Quest: Proof of Heroism Objective: 1. Find and kill twenty Demonlings. [Complete!] 2. Bring twenty heads of the Demonlings to King Selirius. [0/20] Rewards: Princess Mary |
Ah, of course! Beatrice rolled her eyes. How could I forget to carry twenty rotting demon heads with me!?
Beatrice swiped away the trashy quest with an even more trashy reward and checked on her other one.
| Royal Quest: Useless Daughter Objective: 1. Teach king Selirus’s daughter how to properly please a man. [0/1] 2. Return to king Selirius with his daughter once she can please a man at least two times within ten minutes. [0/2] Rewards: ??? |
I guess cumming endlessly all over a dickgirl’s cock in pure ecstasy didn’t count, Beatrice concluded and swiped away her other Royal Quest. The succubus had a feeling that by this point she was more likely to kill the king before finishing his quest.
