Dread Sovereign: Monster Girl Harem

Chapter 224 43: Blitz, Strange Knight

Raven stood in the darkness, the morning just about to dawn, as he realised something dangerous upon Adam's report their conquering of the lower-ranked fire lord had already spread throughout the communities.

'I need to crush the beast lord now.' Raven thought before quickly turning towards the direction of the Beast Lord's dungeon.

He looked back towards his castle, where most knights were knocked out or sleeping soundly.

Suddenly, the beautiful and mysterious Persha appeared; her eyes widened when she saw Raven before quickly adjusting her posture and movements to become more sensual and loose, nothing like the sharp and elegant movements earlier.

"Persha," Raven called out to the beauty, who responded with a charming smile that seemed to draw one closer; however, Raven remained unmoved and looked at Persha coldly.

"Lord Raven, is there anything I can help you with?"

"Come with me."

Persha was startled momentarily, but after seeing Raven turn around without waiting for her response, she immediately followed behind him.

She was curious why Raven wanted her to come with him, especially since she noticed his gaze didn't seem to have any lustful emotions within it a while ago.

However, Persha didn't ask Raven. 

Instead, she just smiled to herself; she knew that no matter how intimate Raven treated her compared to the other female knights, she wasn't someone who could casually question.

After walking outside the castle, Raven's wings expanded, beautiful black wings shimmering in the darkness that was about to fade, as he extended his hand to her and lifted her onto his forearm.

'Her ass is amazingly soft... like a warm marshmallow just before it melts.'

"Eh?"

Persha let out an unconscious cry as Raven suddenly flew up into the skies, although Raven ignored her and instead focused on flying through the sky faster than ever.

She couldn't help but hold onto his muscular body, her face pressed against his chest as his thick scent from enjoying sex with Juniper all night while Shirone's scent lingered on his neck, face and body.

'This woman is so strange; her power is definitely above Nu'bella, but I cannot gauge her full power...'

'It seems she's quite naive as my hand touching her buttocks makes her blush like a virgin.

He was worried about what might happen if the news of defeating the fire lord reached the beast lord, but it seemed to have already started to move in the direction he thought, with their defences and number of troops increasing by the moment.

"Persha, will you help me crush another Lord in secret?" Raven asked Persha calmly as they approached the Beast Lord's dungeon.

"Eh?"

Persha looked at Raven in surprise before nodding her head. She didn't know why Raven wanted her help, but she decided not to question him; rather, her face was filled with a strange sense of shock, not one of a knight looking at her lord.

But the stunned face of someone who couldn't understand the situation.

However, Raven didn't care about Porsha's expression as he landed at the dungeon entrance hidden deep within a forest; this place was much further away than the fire lord's dungeon and was even smaller in size, but the huge amount of beasts.

"Persha, let's go," Raven said indifferently as he walked forward fearlessly.

Persha followed behind him with a strange look, containing a sense of wonder, awe and attraction, but there was clear confusion as she followed him.

He didn't wear anything special or take out Mor'vaal; instead, he stepped into the dungeon. The portal faded, leading them to a huge, expansive forest with a huge village in the centre where many beasts and demi-humans seemed to be bonding.

"I will kill everything; you just stop things from escaping," Raven ordered Persha as he suddenly charged forward at lightning speeds, causing the creatures to notice him entering the dungeon.

His body grew larger, close to three metres in height, as his fists were covered in a thick black scale armour looking like slates of sharp rock; spikes protruded from his knuckles like deadly knives.

His tail grew sharper, becoming a pair of long whip-like blades that caused air currents to form whenever Raven swung his tail; his feet also turned into dragon claws rather than hooves, the silvery scales like that of Zeon that left behind trails of small fire energy whenever he moved.

His horns grew longer, sharper and thicker as Raven charged straight at the closest creature, a bear demi-human holding a large axe.

The bear roared furiously, its voice booming like thunder, as it charged forward with all its might, swinging its large axe downwards; however, Raven dodged with his agile movements, moving like a snake as he grabbed the bear's arm with his powerful grip.

Crack!

A loud crunching noise sounded out as the bear's demi-human arm broke apart under Raven's strength, causing the bear to roar in pain before Raven kicked him in the gut mercilessly, sending the bear flying backwards until it slammed against a tree trunk; blood sprayed out like a fountain as the bear slowly stopped breathing.

Persha watched his brutal way of combat as Raven's body glowed in various colours, black, green, red, purple and brown, the mantle taking on aspects of countless races, sometimes in the form of strong vines that tore apart a cheetah-type beast or became red skinned claws of energy that crushed the skulls of several humans.

"He's so wild... Is this the new lord of dread?" Persha whispered, her tongue sliding along her lips as she understood her brother's feelings.

The powerful body, his unending energy and relentless attack made her feel hot, the feeling of another Lord that caused her to feel interested for the first time in over ten thousand years.

"Persha, don't stand there doing nothing!" Raven yelled coldly as he punched a gorilla-type beast that carried a large club; his fist smashed through the club, leaving only wooden splinters before shattering the gorilla's jaw, whose bones broke apart instantly.

Persha giggled cutely before nodding; her body floated upwards before hundreds of white spikes sprouted out from the ground, entangling beasts and demi-humans alike, crushing their bodies and draining their life force.

"Ordering me around... making me feel this way... ah, how will such a young and new lord take responsibility?" 

"What if I break you? Drain you dry?" Persha muttered seductively, licking her lips as her entire body glowed with a faint white light; her body moved rapidly, similar to Raven's, as her nails elongated into long dagger-like weapons.

The beast lord sat on his throne, the knights he cultivated were torn apart like dregs, and each lord handled his knights differently.

Some had a round table of six, maybe ten or dread with their thirteen, while the beast types had Commander beasts, Captains and Vice-Captains instead.

The beast lord's dungeon was the same, although he had one commander beast, ten captains and twenty vice-captains; these were some of his strongest warriors, but Raven destroyed them in less than five minutes.

Blood, guts and chaos were all that remained... 

The huge monstrous lord stood in the centre of the Beast Lord's village, as his mouth breathed black flames and burned everything to ashes.

His body was filled with muscle and unbreakable willpower; as the aura came off, Raven felt like a king standing over a mountain of corpses.

Persha fought alongside him, using her unique abilities to drain the life force of countless beasts and demi-humans. However, her eyes never left Raven; she watched his every move and became more enchanted and filled with a sense of obsession.

Suddenly, a large wolfman beast charged forward, carrying a huge broad sword; Raven dodged the quick strike before punching forward, smashing apart the wolfman's skull before grabbing its throat and squeezing tightly.

"STOP!"

A bellowing howl sounded as a huge beast stepped forward on two legs, but Raven simply snapped the wolfman's neck. 

"Who are you?" Raven asked indifferently as he faced the beast lord. Persha appeared beside Raven silently, her eyes filled with interest as she looked at the Beast Lord.

"YOU DARE COME INTO MY TERRITORY AND KILL EVERYONE?!"

"So you're a coward? I would have fought you one-on-one if you didn't hide so long; now, you are the last man standing." Raven taunted ruthlessly.

"YOU! YOU-" The beast lord trembled angrily as his eyes turned bloodshot; however, Persha laughed sweetly.

"You are so arrogant; this is not your territory, boy. This belongs to Lord Dread now!" Persha giggled cutely, her tone teasing the beast lord arrogantly.

The beast lord trembled with anger before roaring madly; his body grew larger, becoming as large as Raven, as his muscles bulged and his claws grew sharper. It seemed he was some type of Gryphon with fluttering wings; he stared at both people.

What shocked Persha was Raven's thick hands wrapped around her waist and lifted her body as he leaned into her ear, "You can leave; I don't want you to get injured in the battle." Then hugged her tight before using blossom steps to move over five hundred metres six times to reach the exit and let her down.

"Persha, return to the castle; I'll finish this beast lord soon," Raven spoke coldly before disappearing like a ghost.

'I don't want her to get hurt; such a beautiful woman with perfect skin shouldn't be ruined against this beast.'

Persha nodded her head silently as she watched his departing back; her heart felt warm and strange, but she shook her head.

"No... this what is this feeling? I need to return because it's dangerous!?" 

Yet her heart didn't obey her thoughts and will... With each flash, she looked at Raven's body, vanishing with beautiful pink flowers around him.

"What did that man do to me... To me..."

Persha touched her chest, feeling her heartbeat race faster than ever, and her cheeks flushed red; she bit her lip gently as her eyes filled with strange emotions.

"Go home, Persha; I don't want to see your beautiful face hurt." 

Her lips spoke in Raven's tone, speaking the true words he wanted to say because she could feel his intention and heart at that moment. She turned around, no longer showing a violent and angry aura; instead, her eyes were filled with confusion and delight.

"Brother... oh brother, what should we do? I find this new lord too interesting to finish our original plan." Persha giggled cutely as she disappeared from the dungeon in a flash.

Meanwhile, Raven returned to face the Beast Lord; the beast lord was furious as he saw Persha leave the dungeon and roared madly, charging at Raven with all his might.

For the second time, Raven was going to fight another Lord.

To test his limits, to push himself further.

So he could protect the ones he loved most.
