Chapter 260
Neo stood firm as Sana’s shout cut through the air.
"Uncle Hans! You promised you would protect me and my sisters after Father’s death!"
Hans threw his head back and laughed, the sound loud and ugly.
"That was a lie. I was the one who killed your father. A demon helped me. After I got rid of him I passed the demon’s test, and now he gave me this power."
Sana pressed herself against Neo’s back, her hands gripping his coat. Neo lifted his sword.
"Sick dickhead," he said.
Darkness mana poured into the blade until it looked like a piece of night. He locked eyes with Hans. In this world demons did not use darkness mana the way they had in his old life. They used something called demonic power, and it felt stronger than anything Neo carried.
Neo shifted his stance and charged the sword a second time, this time with holy pyro. The two energies fought inside the steel for a second, then settled into a hard white-black glow. He lunged. Hans met him in the middle. The clash sent a bright spark and a wave of force that flattened the grass in a wide circle.
Hans moved next. His blade flashed in short, sharp cuts aimed at Neo’s joints and vitals. The speed was so high that Neo felt his own body start to loosen, joints going soft so he could twist and roll just to stay alive. Horns pushed out of Hans’s forehead. His strength climbed with every breath. He kept finding Neo’s blind spots, forcing Neo to give ground.
Neo cursed under his breath. The sword style that had been his strongest in the old world barely ranked as high here. This world’s bar sat higher, and Hans mixed in footwork that reminded Neo of the earth he had left behind. The place was not simple.
He reached for the sealing box he kept ready. Natural embrace energy flooded into it until the wood strained and the air around it shimmered. He needed one clean second to throw. An idea hit. He pointed his palm at Hans and triggered Steal.
Every piece of clothing on the man vanished except the thin pants. Hans froze and looked down at himself. Neo used the half-second. He charged in and smashed the sealing box against Hans’s shoulder. The box exploded. Flesh and bone tore free. Hans staggered.
Neo did not stop. He pressed the attack, taking cuts he could not fully dodge, buying time to form a second sealing box. He hurled it at the other shoulder. The second explosion left Hans with both arms hanging useless. Neo switched to pure speed—sword, kick, punch, sword again—changing angles so fast Hans could not guess the next strike. The final cut opened Hans’s throat. He dropped.
Neo turned. Sana rushed him and wrapped her arms around his waist. He wiped the tears from her cheeks with his thumb.
"Don’t cry. I took down this ugly man."
She looked at the corpse, spat on it, then tugged Neo’s sleeve.
"Lean down."
He bent. She rose on her toes and kissed his cheek.
"Thank you."
Neo grinned. Sana was the same age as the adult women from the demon realm—twenty-two—and he liked the way she looked at him. He let one hand slide down and gave her plump ass a firm rub.
"Call me Neo."
She smiled and looked at him
"Alright, Neo. Thank you!"
He laughed.
"Alright. Let’s go home."
They walked toward the castle. The queen came running with eight red knights at her side, each one stronger than the thing Hans had become. She pulled Sana into her arms. Sana told the whole story—how Neo had killed Hans. The queen’s gaze settled on Neo, complicated and quiet. Maybe she had misjudged him. Maybe he really had been hunting for Sana in his own way. Maybe the lack of lewd energy had hurt him more than she thought.
She pointed at two of the knights.
"You two guard my daughter at all times. The rest of you go outside and find the corpse."
Then she looked at Neo.
"Come to my chamber. We will talk about your reward."
The three of them started down the corridor. Halfway there the queen stopped Sana.
""She pointed at two of the knights. ’You two stay with Sana while I speak with Neo.’"
Sana nodded.
"Take care of my Neo."
She left. The queen smiled. Neo stepped in behind her and groped the full curve of her hip.
"You’ve got a great daughter."
The queen only nodded.
They entered the bedroom. The door shut. The queen faced him, lips pressed together, color rising in her cheeks. She already knew every idea in his head would be perverted, but it was logical. He needed lewd energy, and she was the only one here who could charge it.
Neo grinned. He pulled out a one-piece blue swimsuit made for girls younger than Sana and held it out.
"Put this on."
She took it. When she finished dressing, she covered her face with both hands. The stretchy blue fabric strained around her massive breasts, nipples clear against the cloth. Below the high cut the suit left her thick thighs bare and showed a hint of the blond hair between her legs.
Neo took her by the shoulders.
"On the bed. On all fours. Like a dog."
She climbed up and settled into position. He smacked one full cheek hard enough to leave a print, then gathered her hair into a tight ponytail. He slid the crotch of the swimsuit to the side.The head of his cock pressed against her pussy.
The queen took a deep breath. Even though she secretly enjoyed it, she had learned to put on a tough front, especially around Neo, since he might think she was easy. So, before giving in, she wanted to show a little resistance.
She looked at Neo over her shoulder. She was an adult woman, active and, of course, wanted some attention.
She sighed. Alright, let’s test this boy a little.
The queen shouted,
"No way! No penetration there!"
She tried to push away. Neo locked an arm around her waist and held her still.
"Explain first."
She bit her lip as she looked at Neo’s handsome face and then at his hardened iron erection.
"This is just wrong."
Neo grinned.
"How about your ass? That isn’t cheating, is it? That hole is only used for defecation."
