Chapter 18: Carriage Ride

A carriage was already waiting for me when Miss Elizabeth brought me outside. It was larger than the one we took to the auction and I also noticed the horses leading the carriage did not look like ordinary horses. They were pure black, with blood red eyes, and would tower over any ordinary horse.

I was a little scared to get near these demonic horses considering they could probably eat me whole, but I was reluctantly pushed forward by Miss Elizabeth.

"The mistress wants you to ride inside with her. Now go along dear and remember not to embarrass yourself."

I carefully approached the carriage, shuffling forward to avoid the horses, and opened the door. But before I could step in, I looked up and froze at the people inside. I bit my tongue before I could gasp out loud and quickly turned my eyes to the ground, not daring to stare at any of the ladies.

What the hell was this?

It wasn't my mistresses presence that surprised me but the other two woman also sitting in the carriage in the bench across from her. Especially the one sitting diagonally across from my mistress as she was someone I recognized before and hoped I would never meet again.

It was the vampire lady who sucked my blood.

I had only taken a quick glance at the other woman before I glued my eyes to the ground, but her presence was just as surprising. She was a succubus like Miss Elizabeth, with red skin, horns and a pointed tail, except she was likely even more beautiful, comparable to even the vampire and my mistress.

But it wasn't her beauty that surprised me, but the fact that she was almost naked. All she wore was skimpy black bikini that barely covered her massive chest and lower privates, as well as some black high heels on her feet. The rest of her red skin was completely uncovered.

Did she know we were going to a banquet?

"Kitty, come here." My mistress patted the open seat next to her. Her voice made me stiffen and I quickly shuffled over towards her direction slowly.

I sat down beside her, making sure to follow my etiquette lessons and kept my back straight and feet level on the ground. The dominant presence of these three women made it hard to breathe and I stared anxiously at the ground.

My suspicion was that they had a perk that made their aura so oppressive and dominant, but I hadn't had time to look too much into it yet. The pressure I felt was certainly not normal, especially now when there were three of them.

I raised my head slightly to look at the two woman. They were definitely not ordinary people, and I could only assume they were most likely part of the demon knights that I had heard whispers about. I didn't know how strong they were but the two woman probably weren't that far away in strength from Mistress Lilith.

"Aww, isn't she adorable. I can't believe you've only had her for two weeks and she's already so submissive. You must tell me about your training method!" The succubus exclaimed, her substantial chest bouncing up and down.

"Kitty, these two ladies are members of my demon knights." She pointed at the succubus. "She is Lady Juliette, the Passionate Knight. Out of all the girls in my harem, she has the largest breast size." I glanced down at her chest subconsciously and felt that she was probably right, at least I hadn't seen anyone bigger.

But why was her breast size important?

Her finger moved to the vampire. "This one is Commander Lucinda, the Dominant Knight. She is the strongest demon knight, second only to me in the harem, and is in charge of leading my armies and other tedious stuff like that. Oh, and her skills in bed are not bad."

I looked at Commander Lucinda and couldn't help but think her words might be a little off. This woman was as expressionless as a brick and cold as an iceberg, how could she be good in bed?

But thinking back to that time in her room, maybe her cold attitude was just a facade.

"That's a big understatement. Sister Lucinda is the only one other than Lilith that can make even me be a bottom. The thing under her skirt is just so large and she knows exactly how to use it.That feeling when it enters and fills you up is so satisfying, you have to try it some time." Lady Juliette said with a grin on her face as she stared at me, reminiscing of past experiences.

I shivered at her words. This succubus was a little too talkative.

Across from me, the vampire lady, Lucinda, moved her gaze to me. Her cold eyes staring all over my body made me shrink back, and I almost thought her lips twitched into a small smile.

"Its not her choice whether she wants to do it with others. She needs my permission," my mistress said as she pulled me into her embrace. Her strong arms wrapped around me, holding very tight against my waist as she pressed me further into her soft chest.

"Wow you're so protective of the girl. No wonder you brought her along, you probably didn't want to see her get eaten up by the others," Lady Juliette said. "But can't we have a little taste? Its a long carriage ride after all."

The banquet we were attending was held by the Demon Lord of Envy, who lived in the capitol of her own territory, and not in Mistress Lilith's territory. Even if the two nations bordered each other, it would still take around two hours by carriage to arrive.

Fortunately, we would not have to ride home tonight, but instead we could stay overnight at the demon lord's mansion. Mistress Lilith could use a teleportation spell to go there and come back, but that was only because she herself was a cheat, the rest of us did not have that ability. Teleporting over such a long distance could only be done by the strongest of magic users. At least, that was what I had been told when I asked if we could just teleport over.

I looked up at my mistress, my body still squished against her chest by her embrace. Now that I thought about it a little, why didn't my mistress just teleport over by herself?

She glanced down and stared back at me, a small smirk appearing on her face. "Of course Kitty can give you a little service on the way, I'm not completely unreasonable."

My face froze. Was she selling me out? I noticed her grin widen a little and felt her hand go up to the back of my head and begin to brush my hair.

"Of course, she first has to make sure I'm satisfied."

My expression cracked. No wonder she made me her personal servant and brought me along to this banquet. Its also not surprising that she didn't bother teleporting, she just wanted to spend some more time with her sextoy.

I felt her arms loosen around me as her hands slipped beneath my armpits to lift me up off her lap.

"Get on your knees and service me, kitten. After you're done, you can also do the other girls," she said as she lifted her skirt.

As I went to my knees, I glanced around at the three beauties all staring at me intently and felt a shiver go down my spine. I couldn't even handle one, now I was stuck in carriage with three.

Unfortunately, with my [Obedient] perk, I had no choice but to obey.

I knew I should have run the moment I opened that carriage door…


Chapter 19: Banquet I

Relief filled my heart as I stepped off the carriage. My tongue was sore and my body completely exhausted from servicing the ladies. The past two hours had scarred me completely.

The only positive of the experience was that I had leveled up my skill, [Cunnilingus], to level 3 and gained the [Blowjob] skill. The latter skill was not something I particularly wanted, but it did no harm to have it in my repertoire. Thinking of how I got the skill, I couldn't help but shudder, that was not a fun experience. Unfortunately, sometimes you have to live with what you're given.

I followed three steps behind my mistress, which the servant etiquette rules defined, as we walked forward to the mansion doors.

The estate was huge, spreading further than I could see. We had already passed through two gates in the carriage to arrive at this centre mansion.

The carriage had been pulled up right to the doors of the building, avoiding everything else. Behind us were smaller houses, training grounds, and gardens from what I could see.

I walked through the doors and entered the main hall. The room was massive, able to hold a few hundred tables, and the amount of guests was staggering. There were at least a thousand people here, but it was not like I could count them all.

The moment we entered, I could feel all the eyes in the room turn towards us, some filled with curiosity and others filled with displeasure or fear. More accurately, they were all staring at the person in front of me, the Demon Lord of Lust herself.

For her part, my mistress was unconcerned by the attention as she strode forward confidently, her back straight and her steps long, not even acknowledging a single person. No one bothered to approach her, dissuaded by the powerful aura she was emitting.

I was awed by my mistress, her presence near me felt like a crushing boulder. Even when she had been angry with me, I had never seen her like this. She must have been doing this on purpose to show her strength.

We continued walking forward, my mistress in the front, her demon knights on each side, and me walking all alone in the back. I could feel a few attentive gazes fall on me for a few seconds, but most seemed to dismiss me. After a short walk, my mistress halted at the front of the hall.

As I stepped in line behind her, I looked up at the young woman who sat on her golden throne and found myself staring in surprise.

Only a blind man could describe the woman in front of me as beautiful. Her entire appearance seemed fake, from her overused make-up to her golden hair that looked suspiciously like a wig. Even if her face wasn't completely ugly, the few traces of beauty were wiped away by the permanent twisted grin plastered on her face.

She wore a glamorous black dress that would have looked gorgeous on most women, but it clearly did not fit her at all, emphasizing her lacking chest and scrawny torso.

Her ugly appearance truly shocked me as I was so used to seeing beautiful woman all the time. Despite her appearance being the complete opposite of my mistress, her aura felt the exact same and I could immediately tell who this was.

The Demon Lord of Envy, Invidia Dormer.

From what I knew of her, she was the youngest demon lord, and also currently the weakest of the seven, although her strength had been rising rapidly of late. She had only been a demon lord for sixty years and her power was already similar to the other three demons lords who had been around for four hundred years. Only Greed, Sloth and Pride were not her match.

I also knew she was not someone most people could afford to offend. Most of the other demon lords held dismissive attitudes to the affairs of mortals, only concerned with important matters or things they were interested with.

My mistress for example was obsessed with beautiful women and sex, but was unconcerned with almost everything else. Thus, it was difficult to offend her, unless you stole her woman.

However, the Demon Lord of Envy was the different. She was angered easily, even towards people who did her no wrong. Just being more beautiful than her would make you her enemy. Her jealousy was unrivalled.

Standing beside her was another person who I assumed was her right hand man, known as the Burned Man. The name was quite fitting, his entire body covered in burns, from his face to his feet. He stood emotionless to the side, not even taking a glance at us.

"Oh, if isn't Miss Lilith. Welcome to my estate, it has been so long since you last came." The voice coming from the throne was polite on the surface but if you listened closely, you could easily notice the words were full of loathing.

"Ah~ it has been a couple decades since I last came here, hasn't it?" Lilith asked with a gentle smile, completely ignoring the undertones in Invidia's words.

"It is just unfortunate that you are always unavailable whenever I host my banquets, and you are always busy so you never host any of your own." The woman on the throne let out a sigh.

"Yes, it takes a lot of work to look as good as I do."

I noticed Invidia's left eye twitch, as her expression almost cracked. One thing that was drilled into me during the past three days was to never discuss appearances around her. It was the one thing that would easily set her off and yet my mistress did just that.

But the Demon Lord of Envy wouldn't make a scene at her own banquet. "Oh, you're such a busy woman and you still made time to come here today. I am honoured."

"Don't be. I was just hungry."

For a second, I thought Invidia would explode and a fight would break out so I silently took a few steps back. I didn't want to be caught in the crossfire as I doubt I would survive a single hit.

But instead, she just smiled at my mistress, not reacting at all, and told us to go take a seat. I felt something off about her words, but I didn't have time to think about it before we left to our table.

Well, it wasn't really my table as only the three others got to sit. I was forced to stand behind my mistress like a maid. As I didn't have to actually do anything, I was more of a decoration than a servant.

I stood silently, as many people approached our table and began to chat with the three woman sitting at the table. Well, only the two demon knights actually socialized while my mistress remained silent, too arrogant to even open her mouth.

During the hour before the food was served, my mistress only deigned to talk to two people, both people I instantly recognized despite never having seen them before.

One was a massive orc, who stood almost twice as tall as me and had arms thicker than my waist. His black armour did not suit the banquet, but I didn't believe anyone had the courage to tell the Demon Lord of Gluttony to change his attire.

He did not talk much, only giving a perfunctory greeting and didn't so much as glance my way. Most likely, he came here for the food and only gave greetings to the few important people that stood as his equals, not bothering with anyone else.

The other person was an odd, young girl with green hair accompanied by fairy wings on her back. Her chubby cheeks were quite cute, giving you the urge to pinch them. She was dressed in a frilly, green dress that could be worn by any normal child, and she gave off an aura of innocence. Had I not been briefed beforehand on her appearance, I would never have believed she was the Demon Lord of Wrath.

Her personality was also similar to a child's. She even gave me a hug and asked if I wanted to be her friend. I didn't dare refuse, there were stories of what she could do when she was angry, so now I was the friend of a demon lord.

*******

After an hour of standing obediently, the food was served. The plates looked absolutely delicious, especially the grilled fish which made me drool from hunger, but as a mere servant I was not allowed to eat any of it.

This was pure torture!

The three women ate plate after plate as I stared on an envy, my stomach rumbling while they filled theirs to the brim. Couldn't they take pity on this starving kitty?

After another hour of doing nothing but stand in decoration, I was finally relieved of service to go eat in the servant's quarters. I restrained my smile as I did my best to walk, my feet sore from not moving in the heels for so long.

Suddenly though, I crashed into a hard wall and almost fell down onto my butt. Fortunately, I was able to stabilize myself and avoided making a fool of myself.

Where did this wall come from? I had been watching where I was going but this obstacle appeared out of nowhere.

I looked up at the culprit, ready to accuse him of not looking where he was going, but when I saw his face I could only pale in fright.

Did I have to be so unlucky?

Glaring down at me was a face scarred in burns, an appearance so ugly it was frightening. The left side of his face was charred black, covering even one of his eyes, so you could not even tell the original appearance. The rest of his face was slightly better, the skin burnt red with some blisters scattered across.

This was the Burned Man, the right hand of the Demon Lord of Envy.

Was my luck really this awful? I just had to run into this guy. This man's temper was even worse than his mistress' and completely unpredictable, to the point where he had burned countless people alive, and many just for amusement. Some days he would be as cold as a statue and utterly ruthless, other days his temper would flare to the extreme.

But instead of doing anything at all, he just glanced at me, his eyes squinted in thought. For my part, I stood stiff, not daring to move.

A few seconds passed before I realized he wasn't going to do anything but state at me. I supposed he wasn't furious with me, or at the very least would not harm me.

Stuck in an awkward situation, I quickly did a curtsy. "My apologies, mister."

I glanced up at his face, but his expression was still cold and uninterested. After a moment he tore his gaze off me and walked away.

Letting out a sigh of relief, I quickly made my way to the servant's quarters before I could accidentally offend another big shot. Although he likely would not have killed me, he still could have had me punished in some way or made a fuss with my mistress. The Burned Man was not someone whose actions could be predicted.

That time had been a little too close. Fortunately, he did not care enough to bother me.

But his gaze had been strange. Why was he staring at me so intently? He wasn't attracted to my beauty, was he?

Something felt off about his gaze, but I could not tell exactly what.

In fact, it wasn't just his weird attitude that gave me a bad feeling, it was also the attitude of Invidia and Lilith that made me nervous. Why did my mistress come to this banquet? Why did the Demon Lord of Envy barely react to my mistress' attitude, despite her terrible temper? She is not someone who would let small grievances go, even if it another demon lord.

I had no idea what the two demon lords planned, but I did have a hunch that this banquet might not end quietly. I only hoped they would not involve me in their schemes.
