Demon Order meeting (9)

It was a small thing, so I missed it earlier, but my attention couldn't help being grabbed by it.

As soon as I saw it, I couldn't help walking over to take a closer look at this item.

This was a small locket that was lying on a small table beside a couch. However, it wasn't the small locket itself that attracted my attention.

It was the dark energy that surrounded this small locket.

It was the same dark energy that had been around the piece of paper from before.

I couldn't help being surprised by the fact that I had missed this earlier, but since it was an item that had the same dark energy as the piece of paper, I assumed that it was something related to the demons just like the piece of paper.

Since it was something that was related to the demons, it was also a piece of evidence that I could use against the Lord Baron.

Since that was the case, there was no reason for me not to take it.

But as I was picking it up, the locket suddenly opened up and revealed what was inside.

As soon as I saw what it was, I couldn't help knitting my brows.

There was this strange feeling that filled me when I saw the picture that was inside of this pendant.

It was a beautiful picture of Madame Rose smiling.

This was a smile that I had seen before, but the eyes were different.

Instead of that slightly dark look in her eyes, there was only happiness from the bottom of her heart.

This painting should have been made when she first married the Lord Baron, when she didn't know anything about his plans.

Back when she could feel truly happy about getting married.

But now…

When I saw this painting, I couldn't help feeling a strange feeling in my heart.

With how the Lord Baron treated Madame Rose, with what kind of tastes he had, for him to keep a locket like this just didn't seem right.

From an objective third party view, it would have seemed like…jealousy.

So without a thought, I took the locket as well.

However, I didn't have any plans of handing it over to Madame Rose. The only thoughts that I had for this locket was to destroy it as soon as possible.

After all, it would just cause Madame Rose pain if she were to see this.

After grabbing the locket, I turned and headed out the door.

I could see that there was more and more smoke coming from the aphrodisiac incense, so it wasn't a good idea to stay here any longer. Even if I had swallowed the pill that was supposed to negate the effects of the incense, it wasn't a good idea to test it like this.

So with that, I left the manor.

To my surprise, there wasn't a single person who stopped me. It was as if they were all occupied with something else.

…

I am a simple knight who guards the border of Baron Mordo's territory.

Through a stroke of luck, I was invited to the secret group that was headed by the Lord Baron.

Though I was shocked to find that this secret group was a group of demon worshipers, that didn't change the fact that this was a group that had close ties to the Lord Baron. As long as I was a part of this group, I would have a chance to move up in this world and no longer be stuck guarding the border.

Tonight was the night of a meeting called by the Lord Baron, so we came to the manor as usual.

Then as per usual, we split up to go drink…discuss our plans with our individual groups.

The group that I was a part of included one of the ministers who was highly valued by the Lord Baron, so as long as I was in this group, I would be able to make my way up in this world.

As we were drinking, I suddenly felt the urge to go to the bathroom, so I excused myself from the room.

When I came out, I couldn't help stopping for a second.

For some reason, it felt like something was lighting a flame deep down inside of me. I didn't know why I was suddenly turned on, but it was a good thing that there were also those maids for anyone to use.

First though, I had to take care of that urge to pee.

I walked through the corridors of this manor, not bothered by the fact that it was completely empty.

That was normal since this was a secret society, so there were only a few servants that were in this manor in the first place.

As I walked along, I couldn't help whistling a song.

Our plans were about to reach fruition and we had just been told that the demons were planning on rewarding us, so it was hard not to feel happy.

But as I walked along, I couldn't help feeling the burning sensation inside of me getting stronger and stronger.

I didn't know why I was suddenly this turned on, but it was getting harder and harder to resist.

So I started moving faster.

The sooner that I finished taking care of my business, the sooner I could go back and take care of this fire deep inside of me.

There was this one cute maid that had been in the room with me that I had wanted earlier, but I didn't have the courage to do so. Now with this flame lit inside of me, I could only think about the things that I would do to her.

With this lewd smile on my face, I moved even faster towards the bathroom.

That was until I suddenly felt a presence behind me.

As a knight, I was very sensitive to things like this.

I immediately turned around and reached towards my waist for my sword, but then I remembered that I had left it at the entrance.

So I said in a loud voice in hopes of alerting the others in the rooms around me, "Who's there?"

There was a seductive voice that replied, "Look at this handsome young man, I really love meals like this."
