Chapter 103: Culprit Found
Adam didn't know this, but his actions had weight.
'Holy Water' had two effects. They seemed similar on the surface, but were different in their effects.
The two effects were 'Purifying' and 'Cleansing'.
It was easy to trigger the first effect simply by being in contact with the water. However…
…as the second effect required a certain condition.
And this just so happened to be… consent.
So long as someone willingly allowed another to put Holy Water on them, it became a baptism.
Cleansing them of evil rather than purifying it.
The difference?
Normally, a demon would be burnt in flames of holy power if they came in contact with sacredness.
But a demon willing to be harmed by it was rare.
The excruciating pain of having an opposing element come in contact with them was felt deep.
Regardless, Adam kept his eye on her and did what he'd intended from the beginning: 'Cleaning' her.
Which would extend into himself.
He touched her everyday from that moment on.
His eyes were clear and unfaltering while giving her a 'bath'. He'd also 'feed' the embryo within her.
They started to have sex nearly every day.
Since he was back in control of his cravings and physical body, he did this just to release stress.
And mostly because her body was now addictive.
He couldn't stop himself even if he wanted to.
Everyday, he would have a blackout if his urges weren't taken care of. Else they'd take control.
That was the nature of their new lifestyle.
"Haaa… Hyaaa~" Eva squirmed underneath him without having enough strength to think anymore.
'Too much…' She thought, and wasn't even able to properly enjoy the rod smacking deep into her.
It had been some time since they'd strutted, but he rarely gave her time to rest. Everyday, he'd siphon her vitality for himself so they could continue without rest. There'd rarely been any time to relax.
Especially on her part.
When she wasn't using her lower half, she was using her mouth. If not, she'd be using her hands.
And if those two didn't quite happen, then he'd be rubbing that pain-inducing liquid all over her body.
Rubbing Holy Water into every nook and cranny.
Her eyes were moist while laying face down on the bed. Sticking her ass out in a pose he wanted.
She didn't feel like a dog or slave. Rather… it was a type of sexual objectification she desired from him.
"Aren't you going to move your hips?" His question spoken so coldly made her act more on instincts.
Clenching his rod tight while devouring him.
To the point it was almost like she wouldn't let go.
Over time, the amount of Holy Water being used on her body increased. To the point they had less sex.
"P-please… Stop…" One day, Eva couldn't take it anymore. There were no marks on her body, but her once lush and vibrant blonde hair started to gain platinum hairs. Even if there were no injuries.
The pain was also unbearable…
She believed her obsession with being an object would complete her somehow, but this was dire.
It was because he was gradually upping the scale.
Using more Holy Water on her over time.
Adam looked at that teary faced expression and responded with one that looked disappointed.
"Eva…" He leaned down towards the face of the girl laying on the boundless bed (with no end in sight).
It was a familiar thing he'd do every time she gave up. A manipulative method of coaxing the woman.
Getting her to act any way he pleased.
But for what purpose?
By now, Eva started to see that smiling face as something more incomprehensible at time went by.
Unable to see beneath the surface layer.
What was within the darkness of his pupils?
When he continued after speaking her name and seemingly begged: "…you have to hold out a little."
"A… little…?"
"I'm going to die in around a year and a half. Is it selfish of me to want to leave you with my legacy?"
These words developed from a seed of faith, to a bright light of hope. They were poisonous words.
'Legacy…?' Eva was able to regain some clarity upon hearing this word. She thought of the future.
What would she do without him being there?
Was it possible to even survive without him?
While she was in her daze, Adam watched while looking at her body. Around her stomach area.
Her nude body shamelessly displayed a stomach that no longer seemed inflated. Things changed.
That once tiny embryo had behind a baby fetus inside of her, it was time to move to the next stage.
"Do you understand me?" Adam kept on talking.
When Eva heard these words, she nodded. The fear that he'd stop caring about her encroached.
Finally, the unborn child was ready to accept his cleansing and baptism without getting destroyed.
But it was still in the process of being influenced by the mother, so he should hurry the process a bit.
"Stick out your ass." Adam ordered her in a heavy tone. As if by reflex, she did whatever he asked.
He'd released her from her bondage restraints at this point, and wasn't planning on bullying her.
Not in terms of such constraints anyway.
She blinked when she realised what he was doing right now. A big 'injection' was held in his hand.
This was…
"STOP!" She quickly moved away and dodged before he could insert the end of it into her ass.
This was… an enema.
Inserting liquids into the rectum (ass) to clean out the bowels. Normally, this was completely useless.
As an immortal and elf, anything she ate would be completely assimilated rather than being digested.
It meant she didn't have any 'dirt' inside of her.
Needing neither to empty herself or wash herself.
Everything in and out of her was clean. To the point it should be illegal to have such a constitution.
But Adam was about to give her an enema anyway.
"What's wrong?" He didn't get her reaction.
"T-that's…" She found it hard to say anything.
Adam's eyes narrowed when he realised exactly why she was acting like this. Like a human being.
But it was too late for such regards.
"Come here." Adam grasped her by the arm and lead her somewhere unfamiliar. It was… HIS zone.
The dimension of 'Eden'.
In front of the lake filled with Holy Water.
"You can either be cleansed all at once, or I'll give you smaller samples of the same thing." Was the threat given. The wolf boy didn't seem concerned on whether she and her child would die of pain.
Eva instinctively held onto him in front of the lake.
Fear started covering her face.
"D-don't…" She shook her head. There was no way she would survive being dipped in that kind of lake.
"Then do you want it to hurt less?"
"…Yes." Eva surrendered quite easily.
Her suffering started from that moment.
Adam found new ways to 'inject' Holy Water in her.
Whether it was through syringes or enema.
The deeper the influence of the cleansing, the more she felt her mind's sense of reason being undone. She started to react less and less, as her eyes became blurry and more lifeless over time.
Similar to how he looked at one point.
'Why am I doing this?' Eva thought while laying down on a bed with a particular type of lingerie.
Adam seemed to have altered her erotic underwear to inscribe white crosses onto it. Her clothes turned into a tool for capturing and exorcising her as a demon. Showing how he was mastering it all.
Combining the knowledge Solaris and Lumina learnt about Magic Arrays and Talisman Seals.
She started to feel lethargic after a while.
'My… my breasts…' She looked down to see two transparent tubes sucking milk out of her cherries.
Nipple pumps…
They were connected to a line that connected to a dildo strapped into her by a few pairs of panties.
The white fabrics being stained by her juices.
He seemed to be feeding the child inside of her with the purified breast milk made by cleansing.
A much more subtle way to prepare for its baptism.
"Alright. It's time for another." Adam got up where he was resting and flicked the needle of a syringe.
Then pierced deep into one of the mounds having their milk sucked out of them. Going in deep within.
Then injecting Holy Water.
'It hurts…' Was all she could think.
It felt like the inside of her breasts were on fire, and this wasn't the end. He'd also did the same to the other. Traumatising her to the point that even the sight of a syringe would break all her confidence.
Her eyes became blurry…
Unable to move with her wrists tied to her ankles.
Nearly a year later, Adam watched as the sex doll he'd diligently trained shook her waist for him.
Devouring his rod with her lower mouth.
She no longer seemed to gasp in enjoyment over this action. Only robotically doing as she was told.
Transitioning into being lower than even a slave.
Perhaps her sense of pain had dulled?
Adam thought of all the times she cried and begged when injecting Holy Water with a syringe.
The mournings and lamentations…
He wondered if this insanity she showed was just an act. Pretending that she was subservient.
"What are you planning?" He asked the dim eyed girl who no longer seemed to resist anymore.
As if she had accepted this as her destiny.
"Nothing, Master. I wouldn't dare harm you." Eva kneeled her now final stage pregnant body.
Ready to pop out a child at any time.
Adam still looked at her suspiciously.
The girl's hair had become completely platinum in the time that he had been injecting Holy Water.
Her demeanour also seemed different than before.
While earlier it was almost like she was enjoying herself despite the pain, now she seemed emptier.
As if no longer being able to see sex as an instinct.
Now it seemed more like a responsibility carried out. A thing that could change at any moment.
He fell to one knee and got on eye level with her.
Lifting her chin to look at her strong soul.
Though she might have put her body down on the line for him, it seemed like she had some doubt.
A question buried deep in her heart.
The time of his death was approaching, but it seemed like he wasn't afraid to go out like this.
Only being able to see his child off before leaving.
It was at that moment he smiled at her.
One much more sinister and genuine than anything he'd ever put on his face since he 'worked on' her.
"I lied." Adam spoke.
His words felt like a rock caused a splash in her heart… and caused constant ripples around it.
The last bit of self-respect she hid under her exterior started to shatter. Her whole world broke.
It collapsed in on itself.
Tears started to fall from her eyes. She didn't believe what he was saying at this moment.
"A-about what?" Her stutter revealed her heartbreak. Trying to deny this reality.
"Why do you think I devoured a part of your Spirit Essence? Don't you think it was weird at all?"
"You're lying…"
"I couldn't get your regeneration, but being 'Ageless' was enough for me to survive. And by the way, we're already a full month into my supposed death day. So…" Adam shrugged his shoulders.
There was no way…
'Then why…?' She went through hell only because he kept on bringing up how he'd die a few months.
It was to the point her feelings changed.
While in the beginning it was a pleasure… Things gradually deviated until she started 'waiting' for it.
Hoping he would die sooner.
Then maybe she wouldn't have to go through feeling like ever cell in her body were being burnt.
"W-why…?" The feelings she'd hidden deep started to erupt while grasping at that hand.
Adam was unable to give a clear answer.
He could only bring up something she'd forgotten:
"You still never told me the way out." Adam's eyes glowed with a domineering cyan glow at that point.
He continued with unmatched intensity:
"You ask why I lied? It's because I hate you. You don't want this child? Then I'll make you have it just to spite you. Torture you. Hurt you. The same way you did to me…. I'll never forgive you. Ever."
"…" Eva's heart dropped to its lowest point in silence. She started to feel a sense of reality now.
'He will always hate me?' The consequences of her actions finally dawned on her. There was no way for her to say anything in response. No way to make an excuse that would satisfy his rage.
Adam used this as his greatest opportunity.
He'd spent years breaking her down all for the sake of escaping this place. All to stubbornly 'live' true.
Becoming more honest with himself.
The depth of his rage burnt with the saturation of his 'reason'. How imbalance affected him inwardly.
Hyuk had predicted that Adam losing his Heart Devil would cause him to lose all of his emotions.
A heart that would be emptied out subtly.
Since without the Heart Devil balancing emotions with his conscience, all that would be left is 'logic'.
It was the death of the ego.
Although his body wouldn't die, his mind would fall into a vegetive state. Unable to drive his body.
Unmotivated to act upon reason.
Desire-less...
However, Eva's actions and his stealing of her Ageless aspect of immortality changed the story.
Since 'Ageless' also had an effect on his mind, it was possible for his heart to live on without dying.
Even without the Heart Devil residing within.
The second event that changed everything was the plan he was executing. Using his 'Deep Eyes'.
He once again devoured her.
Not everything. He only sucked out the last vestiges of her ego, and the knowledge to leave.
Allowing him to finally find the door out of this place. This horrible world of nightmares.
"Reveal the door to me." Adam ordered her harshly.
The now emotionless doll managed to stand her pregnant body up and reveal the door to leave.
That exit he'd desired for over three years.
He ran through it immediately. Not even having the mind to be mindful about his current naked look.
It was at that point his eyes saw the back of the woman who looked exactly like Eva did back then.
A blonde woman with red eyes turned to look at him. The sight causing Adam to fall into a rage.
Without giving her a chance to speak. He grabbed her by the jaw and slammed her head on the wall.
Knocking her unconscious in a single strike.
