Inside the spaceship, the holographic image of a woman whose face was obscured was displayed on the screen. Zastin was on one knee, his expression respectful as he reported to her.
"I see. So even Rhea lost…" the woman's voice came from the screen after Zastin finished his report.
Her tone was light, with no hint of surprise or disappointment. Her composure was such that it seemed even the end of the world wouldn't faze her.
"And Rhea? Is she dead?" the woman's voice came again.
"Lady Sephie, well… that is…"
"Lady Rhea is fine. But the Young Master said that as his captive and prize, she will be his… pet from now on."
It was a difficult thing to say, but in front of this supreme queen, Zastin didn't dare to hide anything. He gritted his teeth and reported truthfully.
A deathly silence fell over the spaceship. Zastin had never felt so nervous in his life, cold sweat dripping from his forehead.
To hear that her own knight had become someone else's pet, even this supreme queen must be furious.
The agonizing silence lasted for several minutes, which felt like centuries to Zastin. Just as he felt he was about to break, the queen on the screen finally spoke again.
"If you are defeated, you must accept the consequences of a loser."
"Kusanagi Sora… Lala's fiancé, the man who defeated Rhea. I will remember that name."
Her voice was still light. After she spoke, the screen flickered and her image disappeared. Zastin finally let out a long sigh of relief and stood up.
Though Queen Sephie wasn't a powerful fighter, the pressure she exuded was even more intense than that of the cruel woman Rhea. If this happened a few more times, Zastin was afraid his heart might give out.
Recalling the queen's final words, Zastin couldn't help but sigh to himself.
"Young Master, oh, Young Master. To be remembered by the most terrifying woman in the entire universe… I don't know if that's an honor or a nightmare for you…"
…
Meanwhile, on Planet Deviluke—
In a luxurious room in the royal palace, two cute, pink-haired figures were lying on a bed, watching a video of the battle between Sora and Rhea.
"N-no way… Th-that Strongest Valkyrie, Rhea… she… she lost…"
Nana, in her red and black princess dress, was stunned, her face a mask of disbelief.
"Oh, she lost. Completely and utterly," Momo, in her black and green dress, said with a wicked smile, twirling her hair. She seemed incredibly excited, as if she were barely holding something back. "And according to Zastin's report, that cruel woman, as the loser, has now become our dear brother-in-law's pet."
"P-pet?! That demon! Pervert! Big pervert! He already has our sister, and… and he's still doing things like that!"
The naive girl's face instantly flushed red. To do something so wicked and shameless! Even though she had never met him, Nana was now convinced that the man who had deceived her sister's heart and body was a great demon, a terrible villain!
"Heh… What's so bad about that?" Momo's voice came, her wicked smile deepening.
"Momo, wh-what are you saying?" Nana's eye twitched, her face full of disbelief as she looked at Momo, who seemed to have entered some strange state.
That great demon, that villain, had deceived her sister, and now he had done something as evil as making Rhea his pet. And Momo was saying it was a good thing?!!!
"I'm saying, what's so bad about it?"
"What an interesting and incredible person. No wonder our sister fell for him. I want him… I want him so badly…"
Revealing her hidden witch-like side, Momo's smile was so excited it was almost distorted. Her small, delicate hands were grasping at the air, as if she were desperately craving something.
"Mo-Momo, a-are you okay?"
Having been together since they were children, Nana knew this was her sister's true nature. But seeing her like this, Nana couldn't help but swallow nervously, a look of fear on her face.
Has Momo finally broken?
Momo didn't answer. She maintained her excited, twisted smile and slowly turned to look at Nana. Nana tensed and took a few steps back.
"Hey, Nana, let's hurry up and escape the palace and go to Earth…"
…
In the bedroom, Sora and Lala were sleeping in each other's arms, sweet smiles on their faces even in their dreams.
But unlike usual, squeezed between them was a cute, silver-haired loli—the fallen Valkyrie, Rhea Aslan Deviluke, who had been made a pet by the great demon king Sora.
In contrast to Sora and Lala's blissful smiles, the loli Rhea was staring blankly at the ceiling, her silver eyes filled with an endless coldness, numbness, and despair…
In just one day, she had experienced the greatest setback of her life. The invincible warrior had been defeated by a demon and had become his captive and pet.
This demon had not only toyed with her body, but last night, he had even defiled her soul.
Thinking about what Sora and Lala had done in front of her last night, Rhea was filled with a rage and humiliation so intense she wanted to slap this shameless pair to death.
Though she had always been fond of Lala, this time, Rhea was truly furious. If she still had her power, she would have disciplined this fallen girl on behalf of Lady Sephie!
She turned her head slightly to look at Sora's handsome and devilishly charming face, which would make any woman blush. But in the loli Rhea's eyes, there was only an endless coldness and hatred…
It was all this demon's fault. He had corrupted the innocent Princess Lala and defiled her!
"Yo, my cute little pet. How did you sleep last night?"
Sora opened his eyes and met the loli Rhea's icy gaze with a smile.
"Kill me," the silver-haired loli said coldly, her face expressionless.
"Still saying such foolish things? I couldn't bear to kill you."
"There, there. Your master will take good care of you from now on."
A wicked smirk on his lips, Sora hugged the loli Rhea and nuzzled her, even planting a kiss on her incredibly cute cheek.
"If you don't kill me, I will kill you one day!" she hissed, glaring at him, the coldness in her eyes intensifying.
"You know, my cute little pet, there are two types of women in this world: those who love me to the point of madness, and those who hate me to the point of madness. But whether they love me or hate me, in the end, they all obediently submit to me."
"There have been countless others before you. How long do you think you can hold out?"
A wicked smirk on his lips, Sora's expression was full of endless amusement.
A flicker of panic crossed her once-cold and resolute eyes. If anyone else had said such things, Rhea would have scoffed. But this demon was different. She had already lost everything by underestimating him.
A sense of confusion filled her heart. Could she really do it? The thought of one day submitting to this demon filled her with a deep fear…
Seeing her expression, the great demon king's wicked smile grew even wider.
"Nngh, Sora, Rhea…"
Awakened by their voices, Lala stirred, nuzzling against both of them affectionately.
"Lala, it's morning," Sora said with a meaningful smile.
"Oh…"
Lala rubbed her sleepy eyes, but instead of getting dressed, she threw off the covers and climbed on top of Sora.
She teased his arousal for a moment, and then, under Rhea's numb and despairing gaze, Lala skillfully took him into her mouth…
