Barbatos kept her head down as she remained silent for a while.
I waited patiently. I already said everything I had to say, and I had finished persuading her. Saying anything more than this would actually be detrimental now. I simply had to wait for Barbatos to put her emotions back together. She slowly opened her mouth.
âYou arenât doing this for any other reason, right?â
âIf I did, then I wouldâve done it with Paimon already. I managed to endure the Succubus Queenâs seduction. Thereâs probably no better proof than this.â
Â
I actually avoided her because I was afraid of the consequences, but I wonât say that.
ââŠâŠAm I really the best?â
âAs you know, Iâm not particularly loyal to the Plains Faction, Barbatos. I respect General Zepar and I like Brother Beleth, but I donât intend to devote my body to the Plains Factionâs ideology.â
I brushed Barbatosâ front bangs to the side as I spoke.
âIn other words, Iâm your friend regardless of any sort of partisan gains. I donât care that youâre the leader of the Plains Faction or a high-ranking Demon Lord. Barbatos, I simply consider you yourself as a friend.â
âBy any possibilityâŠâŠ.â
Barbatos glared at me.
âIf you go over to Paimonâs side, then Iâm going to kill you.â
âI keep saying that youâre my number one, but youâre still acting like this, Your Highness.â
I laughed as I gave Barbatos a kiss. I didnât kiss her on the lips. I gave a respectful kiss to the top of Barbatosâ foot as she stayed seated on the throne. If I went for her lips, then there was a high chance that Barbatos would refuse me because of her mood.
Thatâs why I lowered myself as much as possible and touched the girlâs body respectfully like a servant serving his master. From her shin to her knee and to her thighsâŠâŠI crossed Barbatosâ bare stomach and chest and kissed her nape. I then carefully pressed my lips against hers like I was knocking on a door.
âHmmâŠâŠmm.â
The gates opened with ease.
The two of us would normally have rough and extreme sex. I wasnât saying that it was rough because we moved violently. It was simply because we were obsessed with acts that werenât simply pressing our bodies together and would do things that went beyond common sense like whipping, torturing, and playing as master and slave.
Was it because of that? Barbatos actually liked it when I approached her as a normal lover would sometimes. It was like people would say, you canât live your life only drinking soda.
ââŠâŠYou really are a son of a bitch.â
After our kiss, Barbatos looked up at me with moist eyes. The sharp edge in her voice was gone now. I gave her a gentle smile.
âDonât you want to pant like a bitch in heat while being pounded by a dog-like bastard?â\n
ââŠâŠ.â
That was the line Barbatos said to me when she seduced me the first time. There was no way she wouldnât remember this. Barbatos opened her mouth partially as if she were annoyed.
However, before she could say any sort of complaint, I took the first move and blocked her mouth with my own. Barbatosâ words lost their shape as they turned into moans.
âHhb, haaâŠâŠhmm.â
âBarbatos.â
I backed away as I spoke.
âYou said that I had become a pervert since the last time we met, right? Thatâs the truth. I recently discovered that Iâm actually quite the perverted guy. Sheesh, it was quite the surprising discovery.â
ââŠâŠYouâve always been a perverted bastard.â
âOh? So you became my sex partner knowing that Iâm a pervert.â
Barbatos seemed to want to swear at me a little more as she insisted on calling me names till the very end. It was unfortunate, but that was a mistake, O Demon Lord of Immortality.
âBarbatos, you surprisingly have a masochistic side to you.â
âHaa?â
âYou normally act as the master, but you get really happy even when you switch roles.â
I opened a system window in front of me and immediately purchased a monster. A torture slime. The same transparent slime I had used on Daisy. Barbatos furrowed her brows once she saw it. She looked up at me uneasily.
âWhatâŠâŠare you planning to do with that?â
âIâm sure you know as well, but this slime has the ability to share its senses.â
I brought my face close to Barbatos as I whispered.
âIâm going to put this inside of you.â
ââŠâŠ.â
âI plan to cut it in half and keep the other half with me. Iâll keep it in my pocket at all times. And whenever Iâm going somewhere with you, Iâll fiddle with it in my pocket. How about it? Isnât it a good idea?â
Barbatosâ mouth twitched. Her expression was becoming strange.
âA good ideaâŠâŠ? You crazy fucker, how dare you ask me thatâŠâŠthe Rank 8 Demon LordâŠâŠ.â
âYou mustâve had a hard time dealing with everything in Habsburg, right? Since youâre already here at my place, we should pay a visit to Niflheim. We can go to a casino and spend a bunch of money at the most luxurious brothels, yeah? Iâve gotten my hands on a lot of money lately. It should be quite the good time.â
I tore the slime and slid it inside Barbatos. The slime squirmed like a caterpillar as it naturally made its way up. I continued to whisper to Barbatos with a smile on my lips.
âAnd Iâll touch it while weâre under the watchful eyes of other demons. The slime inside of my pocket. Intensely, strongly, and to the point that you canât endure itâŠâŠ. The Rank 8 Demon Lord will climax in front of a countless number of demons.â
âAre you, crazyâŠâŠ?â\nBarbatos, whose expression was twisted strangelyâ.
âDo you think, Iâll let you do something like thatâŠâŠ?â
She was smiling with uncontrollable delight.
She tried to control her facial expression, but the thought of the upcoming pleasure that was going to shower upon her made the ends of her mouth tremble uncontrollably. The usual confident and arrogant tyrant was nowhere to be seen. Only the remains of her pride and arrogance were barely keeping Barbatos up.
I gave her a cold look.
This was the signal that stated our roles were being swapped.
âYou should learn to speak properly even if your mouth is crooked. You arenât listening to my request, you dirty pig. Iâm ordering you. If youâre a meat toilet, then you should talk like one as well, right?â
ââŠâŠ, âŠâŠ.â
Barbatosâ expression fell apart.
Afterward, Barbatos wasnât allowed to speak like a person for 6 hours. Iâll just say that I showed her that she could only oink like a pig.
This was revenge for treating me like a slave in front of Daisy. I always repay my debts because of my incredibly earnest personality.

âA meeting?â
I only found out later on that Barbatos didnât come here to simply escape her troubles. She had business with me as well. There was going to be a meeting between Demon Lords.
My original goal was to tell you this, was what Barbatos told me.
âHooâŠâŠ. The Crescent Alliance war has wrapped up to a degree, so itâs come to a point where we have to carry out the distribution of honors.â
Barbatos took a long drag on her pipe. She looked tired. It wasnât surprising since we had gone to every corner of the cave for several hours.
I fiddled around with the inside of my pocket like I was going to put a hole in it as I walked around together with her. Barbatos did her utmost to not climax while watching the goblin workers.
Although she did anyway in the end. About 50 times as well.
I knew because I had ordered her to tell me how many times she climaxed every time she did. Barbatos almost passed out at the end. She collapsed on the cavern floor with unfocused eyes and muttered âfifty-sixâŠâŠfifty-six timesâŠâŠfifty-six timesâŠâŠ.â.
On another note, a weird skill had leveled up.

ăYour Training(Lv. 2) has increased!ă

I was curious so I quickly checked what this was.
I had gained a new ability ever since I made Daisy my slave. âThe higher your Training level, the more effectively you can train your slaves.â, this was displayed nicely in the description window. I should test this out on Daisy whenever I have the time.
âA distribution of honors, huh? âŠâŠItâs not like Baal is our ruler or something. Why do we have to participate in something like that?â
âWell, youâre right about that, but itâs just called a distribution of honors on the surface. Thereâs actually something else here thatâs important.â
Barbatos continued.
âI asked old man Baal to mediate.â
This was what she was saying: Habsburg was currently split into a three-sided struggle between Demon LordsâŠâŠ. In other words, the battle between Barbatos, Agares, and Gamigin was growing more intense by the day.
Normally, Demon Lord Marbas of the Neutral Faction would act as a mediator between the parties, but this fight went beyond what Marbas could do.
Agares was the Rank 2 Demon Lord and Gamigin was the Rank 4 Demon Lord. There was no guarantee that they would obediently listen to Marbas who was the Rank 5 Demon Lord. That was why Barbatos asked Baal who occupied the highest position within the Demon Lord army to act as the mediator.
âBut old man Baal would never offer a solution himself. Never.â
Demon Lord Baal fundamentally supported laissez-faire.(TL Note: Laissez-faire, also known as the let-alone policy)
He was willing to act as a mediator whenever there was a problem, but he wanted the involved parties to figure out a solution themselves. Barbatos came to me so that she could take a slightly more advantageous position during the negotiations.
âYour talking skill is able to float even if you tried to drown it in water. Help me out.â
ââŠâŠHey, hey. Are you insane? Are you telling me to go against Agares and Gamigin?â
I reeled back in terror.
âWhat are you going to do if they hold a grudge against me?â
âDidnât you say Gamigin liked you? Try persuading her with that dick of yours.â
âLike hell.â
I only met Gamigin briefly during the Crescent Alliance war, but that was enough for me to know. Gamigin was the type of individual who would resort to assassination without any hesitation if it meant she could get rid of her political rivals. I doubt sheâd take our side due to her personal emotions when there were interests on the line.
I didnât even have to bring up Agares. I didnât have any sort of relationship with her.
âMm. Thereâs nothing for me to gain by stepping forward as a negotiator.â
ââŠâŠWould I not be able to persuade you?â
Barbatos looked up at me furtively.
Our master-slave roleplay had already ended a short while ago. Despite this, Barbatos was acting surprisingly humble. This meant that Barbatos understood fully well that I would have nothing to gain by stepping forward as the negotiator.
Despite this, she was requesting this of me.
If you listen to my request, then Iâll give you anything in return. Iâll do something for you. Barbatos definitely couldâve said something like this, but she didnât offer me anything.
\nThereforeâŠâŠBarbatos wasnât considering the profit and losses and was solely asking this of me out of our friendship.
ââŠâŠ.â
I thought about it intently.
Barbatos had never made a request like this to me. Our relationship was rather dry. We both disliked words like friendship and love.
We slept together whenever we wanted. We spent our time together like friends. However, we didnât use things like friendship and love. It would be fine to call our relationship dry.
I came to a realization at the end of my contemplation.
âI see.â
This was a trade.
Barbatos had given me the okay to sleep with Paimon and the others. There was no way that this wouldnât weigh down on her emotions. âIâve allowed you to do that much, so you should do this much for me.â, this was the message Barbatos was giving me.
The reason she didnât explain this to me openly was due to the fact that it would make love and friendship become incredibly apparent in the relationship between. Our relationship would instantly become muddy the instant those things got involvedâŠâŠ.
âHoo.â
A laugh slipped out. Her behavior felt cute. She was quite the arrogant girl.
âBarbatos, did you bring my fingers?â
âHuh? Yeah.â
Barbatos nodded and took out a white towel from her pocket. Two of my fingers were probably wrapped inside of the towel. They were the fingers I had deliberately cut off in order to save Lapis. She probably brought them here to reattach them to me.
I spoke.
âMake those into a necklace and keep it with you.â
Barbatos blinked.
âWhat?â
âI promised you, didnât I? Youâll always be my number one even if I sleep with Paimon. Itâs not that great as proof, but it should work as quite the clear symbol. Show Paimon that necklace when you meet her later on. Tell her I gifted it to you.â
You may have slept with Dantalian, but he gifted me a part of his body. My relationship with him is much deeper than yoursâŠâŠ.
There was probably nothing more effective than this. I was going to present my two fingers to Barbatos to give her my trust.
ââŠâŠAll right. I understand.â
Barbatos mulled over it for a moment before muttering in a tiny voice. She held the white towel tightly in her hands. I didnât need her to clarify what she had understood.
Barbatos leaned against me silently. I smiled and stroked her hair softly.
