Board Thread:What Would You Do?/@comment-34263048-20180605161228/@comment-33398500-20180617232505

“Oh, bugger...”

As the crate I was standing on gave way under my feet, and threw me to the floor, the figure I was waiting to ambush now turned to face me. As I clambered rapidly to my feet, the figure of the demon in front of me became clear, her smirk at the sight of me quite unsettling “You know... I’d heard a couple of the town guards were waiting for us to come for them... but I didn’t think one of them would try to sneak in to get with me...” the demon giggled, before tilting her head slightly, catching sight of the weapon I was going for on my belt. “Oh... you actually came to fight me then... Good. It wouldn’t be any fun if you made this too easy...”

Managing now to draw my sword, bringing it up in a defensive manner, I responded “You’ve brought this on yourself, trying to destroy our town... I have to stop you...”

At this, the demon smirked, moving over to the door, closing it before stepping back over to me “Wouldn’t want to be disturbed... but on count of your accusation, we have done no such thing... we wish to bring joy and happiness to everyone in your land... surely you saw how happy the others are here on your way in...”

Honestly, I had seen the groups on the way into this part of the fortress: large groups of mamono having their way with their kidnapped humans from the town. Their faces had been contorted in pleasure, and the chorus of moans emitting from the fortress almost seemed to make the walls themselves vibrate slightly. “That’s not the point... you’re kidnapping people, and you’ll end up turning the town into a ghost town if no one stops you...” I responded bluntly, taking a step toward her.

“Oh, my boy... still so silly... haven’t you noticed? Perhaps you haven’t, because it’s not there to be noticed...” the demon then giggled “...I know you’re here, yet I didn’t call the others~ what does that say about your chances?”

“That you made them better without needing to...” I responded, not wanting to make her point for her, so I stayed away from the obvious answer.

“How about this? We’ll have ourselves a talk, a nice little discussion of which of us is right... if you win that, we’ll give back whoever wants to go... if I win, you hop into bed over there and I prove my point...” she then offered, flicking her tail across the base of my nose.

She was clearly confident she would win an intellectual argument of which of us was right, but I knew that doing as she wanted would only lead to ruin. “Very well, I accept...” I then responded, sitting down in a wooden chair that was present in the room. Gesturing to the other chair, however, I was surprised when I was suddenly way too close for comfort as she sat down in my lap, seeming as if she were taking care to expose as much of herself as possible.

“All right... try giving me one good reason that allowing the girls and I into your town would lead to a bad ending... oh, you can leave this over there...” taking the weapon I still had tensely in one hand with seemingly no effort and sliding it across the floor to the opposite wall, again flicking me across the nose with her tail.

“Well, I...” I started, attempting to think of a rational argument while the soft warmth of her body seemed to be draining on my ability to think. “...I know for a fact, should the men end up going with you all, the women of the town would no longer have husbands, and thus wouldn’t be able to keep up with all the work of supporting the town with only half the original population available... not to mention, they would be exceedingly lonely...”

“Untrue.” The demon responded simply. “It seems you don’t understand our methods if you think that... we don’t just leave the women to wallow in loneliness or anything like that... we make them like us, adding new mamono to our little community, and bringing joy to that many more people. Contrary to what you might think, we respect marriage, so the wife would be able to join her husband again once monsterized, even if she ends up having to share him with his converter... besides, we wouldn’t be taking them away... once we take over, we’ll be staying in the town with them~ a lot of us like the idea of having a nice, safe place to live with our loved ones...”

It seemed she had shut my first argument down completely, and with her starting to envelop me in her wings, my thoughts continued to get garbled as she ensured I had an easy view of her chest from where she was sitting. “If you don’t hurry up and convince me...” she started “I may just have to make you mine right here~ Less comfy than the bed though, so hurry up, please...”

“I... I... I know that if humans give up completely to mamono, then we’ll both die out, though!” I then managed to get out, her amorous expression turning to a look of concern quickly. We both knew this was where I’d have to go with our debate, and she seemed to not have thought of an answer yet. “We couldn’t have male children, thus we would die out after the first fully converted generation...”

Sighing heavily to herself, she nodded slightly “You know... you’re right... I know that’s a thing, even if I try to deny it...” before now getting a smirk on her face, and standing up “So I guess you win... let’s go... I’ll let your people leave our midst, if that’s what you want...”

Going over to get my sword, I then sheathed the weapon and stepped out with her. However, I knew something wasn’t right... this was TOO easy... I didn’t expect her to simply give up like this, and thus as I went with her, I kept my eye open for some manner of ambush.

Once she led me into the main hall, where even now her followers were ravishing the men they’d kidnapped so far, she then called the hall to attention “Please... please stop a moment... you can get back to what you were doing in a second... just please listen a moment~” the demon then called to the people, who seemed to stop, at least for the moment, enough so they could hear her speak. “Your town’s hero has paid us a little visit... and due to the terms of a deal we made, I have to let you go home now... so... if you choose to, you may leave this place and return to your homes...”

However, this wasn’t met with the relief I had been expecting from people being forced upon by groups of horny mamono, but rather, cries of disapproval and derision “No! I don’t want to leave!” “Don’t make us leave our girls!” people saying things of this sort all over the building “YOU leave, then!” one of them then shouted at me.

I was utterly stunned by this. However, the demon’s smirk told me she had been expecting exactly this. “My, my, it seems they are enjoying themselves, Mr. Hero... I will not make you leave if you don’t want to!” she called to the people, allowing them to resume their debauchery. “You, however...” she then started, rounding on me. “...by our deal, I let them leave if they wanted to... but... there’s still the matter of you breaking into our home to attend to...” before rushing me before I could react and planting a kiss onto my lips. The sensation was strange, as I had been unprepared, though there was nothing but a pleasant feeling accompanying the kiss.

After separating her face from mine, I noticed something weird... my body didn’t seem to be responding to my mind’s orders to withdraw. “Ooooh, looks like you react quite well to even a taste of my demonic energy~ Your body’s already refusing to leave me...” picking me up, she then carried me back to the room we had had our discussion in, and now carried me over to the bed, now followed by a pair of dark priests in maid outfits “You called for us, my lady?” one of the two identical-looking women asked.

“Yes...” she responded “...today we are initiating our new friend, Mr. Hero here in our ways, since he has failed to ‘save’ his town... and I would like you to help me overwhelm him~” now with the other two, climbing onto the bed, three pairs of hands beginning to strip me as the knowledge of what was about to happen fully hit me.

I guess ‘success’ is truly subjective...
