S-Class Dungeon’s Mistress - Chapter 206
Chapter 206
Adelaide had to endure Lisianthus for more than half a day. He had confidently claimed he would keep her from getting bored, and he thoroughly tormented her in various and shameful ways, effectively erasing any thoughts of the dungeon pad from her mind. To be precise, she hadn't had the opportunity to have a proper thought for the entire half-day.
Only after countless encounters did Adelaide escape from the pleasure bordering on pain. However, her strength was completely depleted, and she couldn't even move a single finger. Her heavy and sticky body felt like it was stuck to the bed.
Her snow-white skin was marked with red traces as she lay face down on the bed, breathing repeatedly with an elated breath. Lisianthus, who had undoubtedly consumed far more energy than her, wasn't tired at all. He smiled softly while wiping her body with a soft cloth.
A harsh word rose to her throat at his brazen face, but Adelaide didn't bother to spit it out. After all, Lisianthus would likely just smile smugly as if he'd been praised.
She might as well think about something more productive. Like pondering why the dungeon pad had emitted light yesterday.
"Are you thinking about that again?"
As soon as the thought crossed her mind, Lisianthus asked. Adelaide instinctively stiffened her body and glared at him with a wary look. She was afraid he might suddenly change and pounce on her like he had a few hours ago.
"We, well, it's all over now, so it's fine, right?"
"If Adelaide permits, I can continue."
"No!"
She exclaimed in shock, raising her voice. The idea of continuing here was terrifying for her, whose waist was already aching.
Lisianthus let out a chuckling laugh, as if he had expected her reaction. "It was a joke," he whispered in a low voice that was incredibly irritating.
"So, what is troubling your mind so much?"
Having wiped away all the sticky residue from his body, he naturally began massaging her waist. His perfect technique for releasing tension made Adelaide melt like a sorbet in the sunlight.
"Mmm... I keep thinking about the dungeon pad glowing yesterday. Could it have been just an error?"
"Well, the dungeon pad does tend to malfunction occasionally... but from what I saw, it didn't seem like a simple error."
"Then what? Why did it glow like that?"
"I suspect it might be related to a potential rank upgrade."
"That's exactly what I was thinking!"
Excited by the anticipated response, Adelaide suddenly raised her upper body and turned toward him. As a result, the white towel covering her naked body fell off, but she didn't even notice. She just continued speaking with a flushed face.
"I was almost about to meet the conditions for rising to S-rank! What was it? What did I do then?"
Adelaide groaned and tried her best to retrace her actions from the previous day. She still seemed unaware of her current state of undress.
Lisianthus softly curved his eyes, finding her adorable. However, while his face remained leisurely, the situation below was rapidly deteriorating.
It was natural and ordinary. What man wouldn't become aroused seeing the naked body of a woman he loved? Of course, the fact that he had already climaxed multiple times made this less than ordinary.
"I suspect it might be related to helping the Morpheus Union when they were in danger," he suggested.
Lisianthus continued to carefully provide advice while steadily swelling below. Adelaide clapped her hands in admiration.
"That's right! That's the only special thing I did yesterday!"
Her pink pupils sparkled with joy. Her voice was filled with certainty.
"Good deeds! That must be the hidden condition for becoming S-rank!"
She nodded as if the condition perfectly suited Greenville.
"Lisianthus, then from tomorrow we'll—!"
Adelaide was chattering excitedly but stopped mid-sentence. Lisianthus's large hand was already caressing her waist. The touch sliding along her skin was quite different from the previous massage.
Only then did she notice her own naked body in her line of sight. Lisianthus's completely erect member was also in view.
"Yes, please continue," he said with a satisfied smile, naturally continuing. His voice sounded like that of a perfect gentleman, but the way he gripped her voluptuous flesh was incredibly rough.
"Ah!"
When he flicked a sensitive spot with his fingers, Adelaide let out a half-breathless moan. She wanted to push him away, but unfortunately, her body was too weak to resist pleasure.
"Just a moment...! Ah, Lisianthus...!"
"I'll do this just one more time."
Lies! Adelaide glared at him with teary eyes. This was already the third time he'd claimed it would be the last. Despite how shameless it might seem, Lisianthus whispered that this was truly the last time.
Eventually, she had to endure a few more hours of his torment.
From the next day, Adelaide was incredibly busy with her schedule. It was the start of her 'Grand Operation of Good Deeds for S-Rank Advancement'.
She conducted various volunteer activities with colleagues whose schedules allowed. She distributed food to demons struggling on the streets and visited oppressed tribes to help resolve big and small difficulties. Most were succubi, incubi, and other races unable to protect themselves against the Demon King's oppression.
"Raham! Bringing such a wonderful opportunity, this is all thanks to you!"
The intermediate-level demon Durahans were no exception. After Raham and his friends left, with no one to lead their group, they had struggled for a while. They continuously expressed gratitude for Adelaide's support.
When they greeted Raham, he shook his head and responded.
"No. I did nothing. It's all due to Adelaide's kind heart."
The Durahans bowed to Adelaide, seeking forgiveness for past wrongs. They apologized for previously attempting to make a contract. Adelaide, feeling somewhat guilty, accepted their apologies.
Among the benefited races was Shuville. When she proposed that jobless Shuvilles work for the Greenville Dungeon and its affiliated unions, they were ecstatic. They flapped their wings adorably. Of course, when discussing wages, they showed their characteristic fierce expressions. Apparently, the Shuville race was known for being frank about money.
She met many diverse individuals: Gargoyles working in the dungeon journal, Dark Elves facing expulsion from their forests by the Demon King's orders, and demon and angel-origin demon tribes marginalized for being monsters. She understood their genuine needs and extended help.
Those who initially were wary of Adelaide gradually began to see her as a benefactor and follow her. Stories of her kindness spread widely.
'The True Savior of the Demon Realm, Adelaide.'
True to the demons' love for dramatic nicknames, such a title emerged. Adelaide was embarrassed yet also quite pleased.
Though her actions weren't purely altruistic and the Greenville's resources had significantly decreased during these relief efforts, she was happy. Seeing people's joyful smiles filled her heart with a warm satisfaction. Especially when returning from volunteer work with her subordinates, her heart felt completely full.
Of course, not everything went according to her plans.
"Adelaide. Unfortunately, it seems there's no connection between good deeds and dungeon rank advancement," Lisianthus firmly advised her.
As he said, despite helping countless individuals, her rank showed no sign of increasing. There were no more instances of the dungeon pad sparkling like before. This meant her assumption about good deeds being the rank advancement condition was incorrect.
"Moreover, the Demon King's Palace's reaction is not insignificant. They're concerned about you gaining the title of 'Savior of the Demon Realm' and gaining support. They seem intent on pressuring their subordinate unions even more. The dungeon-related support funds have been cut off for quite some time now."
She had confirmed this through financial reports. While they were surviving on earnings from adventurers, it wasn't nearly enough. If things continued this way, they would likely run out of money within a few years.
"Although they know there's a powerful individual who killed Abaddon and won't easily attack, if we continue on this path, the Demon King's Palace will eventually make a decision. After all, he still has four more devils among his subordinates."
One of them is almost as strong as Abaddon, Lisianthus added matter-of-factly.
Adelaide frowned and remained silent. Though she already knew these facts, hearing them from his mouth made the situation feel more serious.
What should she do? Strategically yielding to the Demon King's Palace might be the safest option, but she wanted to avoid that scenario at all costs, even if it meant paying a significant price.
"…I don't want to think about it right now. What time was my lunch appointment? Isn't it time to leave?"
"Yes, if you leave right now, I'll accompany you."
Lisianthus was puzzled by her excessive avoidance of the Demon King's Palace but didn't question her further. He assumed it was due to past experiences as a succubus.
Dressed in a neat suit, he escorted Adelaide to Belial. Adelaide was also dressed quite meticulously.
No wonder, as she was about to have lunch with a very important demo. It was an appointment difficult to secure, so she couldn't afford even the slightest slip.
After crossing several portals and following a guide for quite some time, she finally reached her destination. Adelaide held her chin higher, looking more nervous than when meeting the Demon King. And finally, she faced the appointment's primary participant.
