The Demon King and the Adventurers (Episodes 1-2)

01 The Black Dog's Ambition

One day after Prince Rein left the Demonic Forest, a caravan slowly made its way along a small road
near the Demonic Forest

at night. Each carriage carried a flag bearing the insignia of the "Black Dog"

mercenary group. The "Black Dog" was a mercenary group that had recently risen to prominence in the Demonic Forest area
.

Although they called themselves a mercenary group, they were more like a team of adventurers than a mercenary force capable of rivaling
regular . The leader of the "Black Dog," Rand, was originally just an unknown member of the Adventurers' Guild.
Whether through the help of a benefactor or the discovery of some treasure, he obtained a large sum of money, recruited a large number
of men in a tavern, and expanded his group. After that, the "Black Dog" rose to become one of the top
mercenary .

No one suspected that Rand's "Black Dog" mercenary group was actually secretly engaged in human trafficking. They
maintained a cooperative relationship with Warren, the dark mage who controlled the Demon Tree in the Demon Forest. Utilizing the terrain's advantages,
they used monsters and demi-humans to ambush their fellow adventurers entering the Demon Forest. Male captives were killed without exception, while female captives were
treated as commodities and sold to the slave city of Seraman. Through the exorbitant profits of human trafficking, Rand amassed
a fortune , expanded his team, and recruited more and more greedy adventurers into his business.

Rumors circulated that the Demon Forest contained vast amounts of precious treasures and rare creatures, attracting
adventurers every month hoping to strike it rich overnight. Some remained in the forest forever, while others became
prey for the "Black Hounds." Of course, some succeeded in making a fortune, but they typically

only discovered the "treasure" after joining the "Black Hounds." These occasional success stories continue
to draw adventurers to the Demon Forest. Driven by greed, they were determined to succeed or
die trying…

Suddenly, the caravan stopped in an open area. A mercenary stepped down, waving a torch
as if signaling something.

A moment later, a light appeared in the distance, and a guard emerged from the shadows
, holding a torch and exchanging signals with the "Black Hound" mercenary. Confirming the man was the one they were looking for,
the guard waved his torch behind him. Soon, about ten more men appeared, approaching the "Black Hound"
mercenary group.

These men wore chainmail that ordinary mercenaries couldn't afford, and their weapons were clearly

far superior to those of the "Black Hound." More importantly, their movements were perfectly synchronized, indicating they had received formal
military training. As they drew nearer, the "Black Hound" men noticed a richly dressed man being guarded by these
armed mercenaries.

Upon seeing him, Rand immediately jumped off the carriage. He immediately stepped forward enthusiastically
to greet him, "Lord Pazpa, you've finally arrived. We've acquired a batch of high-quality goods this time."

The man named Pazpa, however, remained indifferent: "I heard you
suffered a great loss at the hands of the 'Lion Prince of Brest,' losing quite a few men."

Upon hearing this, Rand's face darkened. "Yes, we indeed underestimated that prince and his
regular army . If my men were as capable as yours, we wouldn't have lost so many." Then,
as if he had thought of something good, his expression brightened again: "However, although we lost a third of our men,
the harvest this time is still very good!"

"Oh? Did you really capture some top-quality goods? You don't seem to care about the loss of your men." "

Yes! You'll never guess, sir! We captured a group of noble ladies! Real noble
ladies !"

"Are you sure? Don't try to fool me!"

"I'm certain they're from the Eastern Empire, female knights of the 'Blazing Knights' of Misera."

"Go on!" Hearing the name "Blazing Knights," even the well-traveled slave trader could hardly
contain his excitement.

"They fought with another group of women from the Western Allies over one of our treasures, and
we took the opportunity to wipe them out."

"What is your treasure that could lure both sides into your trap?" "

I'm sorry, sir, this treasure belongs to my partner. I cannot reveal it."

"A trade secret? Fine, I won't ask. Tell me, do you have anything that can prove their identity
?"

"These are insignia taken from their armor; they're enough to prove their identity." With that,
Rand handed over several insignia.

Pazpa took the insignia and examined it carefully. "That's right, it's the insignia of the Empire's 'Blazing Knights
.' It's a pity that the 'Ruby Princess' fell into the hands of her enemy. Otherwise, I really wish I could have captured her and
brought her to Seraman, so she could be paired with the 'Sapphire Princess' Lindis." He shook his head, feeling that
capturing the two most famous women in the world was somewhat unrealistic. He dismissed the thought and focused
on the goods at hand: "Since they are both genuine noble ladies, this time I will
buy them at three times the price of last time."

"Three times? Lord Pazpa! Congratulations!" Rand
jumped up .

"However, before payment, we still need to inspect the goods; also, as always, once we arrive in Seraman,
the payment will be made. You know, rules are rules."

"Yes, yes, yes! You can inspect the goods now." Rand nodded repeatedly, afraid of offending his patron and
having to change the previous offer.

Rand directed his men to open the door of the first carriage. Pazpa peered inside and saw
many naked girls piled haphazardly like sardines in the carriage. Having been
ravaged for so long by the brutal mercenaries and monsters, their eyes were lifeless, and their bodies were covered in atrocities. Large amounts of
semen gushed from their swollen genitals, a strong stench wafting out of the carriage. They
bore no resemblance whatsoever to their former imposing figures.

Pazpa instinctively covered his nose, angrily saying, "You bunch of idiots! Look
what you've done! These were excellent materials. And you've ruined them! I take back what I just said!"
"The price!"

"My lord! No!" Rand knelt down with a thud, grabbing the merchant's leg and pleading, "Please
tell us what we did wrong, we'll definitely correct it next time!"

Pazpa was unmoved, instead kicking him to the ground: "Open your dog eyes and look, is this, is this still
a noble lady? What's the difference between them and ordinary slaves! What our clients need are female slaves who can
maintain their noble demeanor and be obedient. Now, you've completely
erased their noble temperament, they're no different from country girls!"

Rand struggled to get up from the ground, crawling on his knees to Pazpa's side, pleading in a low voice, "My lord,
give me another chance! By the way, I caught the woman you've been offering a bounty for—'Black Bullet Shooter'
Karen!"

Hearing this name, Pazpa couldn't help but tremble. He grabbed Rand's collar excitedly and asked,
"Is it true? Where is that woman?"

Seeing the merchant's excited expression, Rand knew he still had a chance to salvage the situation, so he quickly said obsequiously,
"She and her accomplices are in the third carriage." He then immediately signaled his men to open
the door .

The petite female mage "Red Fox" Emily was being
held in the arms of a burly mercenary in an M-shaped spread-eagle position, his thick penis thrusting in and out of her small opening. Already frail and delicate, she had been raped in this position
the entire way , long since unconscious. Only when her body instinctively
reacted to the pain did the mercenary realize he wasn't holding a doll.

On the other side, the slender female warrior "Blue Eagle" Katina was in a much worse state. Even someone as strong as her
was now unable to resist the mercenaries' brutality. A mercenary grabbed her hair, forcing her to swallow his
penis, swelling her cheeks; two other mercenaries occupied her two vaginal
openings, thrusting in and out while kneading her breasts and slapping her buttocks. Days of brutality left her body covered in handprints and bruises from the mercenaries. Her lower abdomen was even slightly swollen
from the large amount of semen ejaculated inside. 　　As for Karen, the archer "Black Bullet Shooter" whom Pazpa had been longing to see, her hands were bound behind her back, and she was kneeling in the carriage. A mercenary grabbed her long hair while rapidly thrusting into her vagina. Her mouth was gagged , completely silencing her whimpers. When the mercenary behind her yelled and ejaculated into Karen's body and released her grip on her hair, she, already exhausted from the gang rape, immediately collapsed. Just as another mercenary was about to step forward to enjoy the women, Rand stopped him and said , "I wasn't lying to you, was I? Karen is captured." 　　Pazpa nodded and said, "You did a good job. I'll buy all these women at the price we quoted earlier, and the bounty for capturing Karen alive is all yours." 　　Hearing Pazpa's voice, Karen, who was lying on the floor of the carriage panting heavily, couldn't help but raise her head. When she saw the slave trader's face, she immediately showed an expression of disbelief. 　　Rand drove all his men out of the carriage, while Pazpa slowly walked in. Karen struggled to move further into the carriage, trying to get away from the man, but Pazpa suddenly grabbed her left ankle and lifted her up by the ankle . Karen tried to kick Pazpa's shoulder with her right foot. Unfortunately, she was already exhausted and her attacks were completely ineffective. Pazpa ripped the gag out of her mouth and then slammed her heavily to the ground. 　　"Hahahaha—" After a burst of maniacal laughter, Pazpa bent down, grabbed Karen's hair, forced her to look at him, and said, "You never thought we'd meet again like this, did you? 　　I offered to marry you out of kindness, but you dared to refuse me! You said you couldn't bear to end your adventures , but really you couldn't bear to part with these mercenaries' big dicks! Since you don't want to be my wife, then you'll obediently be my slave girl from now on!" 　　The weakened Karen struggled a couple of times, but still couldn't break free from Pazpa's grip. She tried to put on a fierce expression: "Don't waste your time, you impotent man! I only like women! You better not give me a chance to escape, or I'll definitely shoot you dead!" 　　Seeing that Karen didn't give in, Pazpa wasn't angry at all; instead, he showed a hint of joy. "Yes, that's it! That defiant expression. I have many female slaves, and they were all as strong as you at first, as eager to kill me as you were. But they all gave in quickly. I hope you can hold out longer than them, don't disappoint me!" 　　Pazpa turned to Rand and said, "Let's set off now! Spending the night in the wild isn't a pleasant experience." 　　Rand, however, had a different idea: "It's already quite late, and the nearest town is far away; we can't reach it before dawn. However, the Demon Forest is our 'Black Hound' territory. Whether it's monsters or adventurers, they'll all obediently avoid us when they see our flag." 　　Hearing Rand's words, Pazpa felt much more at ease. He turned back to Karen and said: "Oh, right, you said you'd shoot me dead at the first chance. Sorry, you don't have that chance anymore. Because tonight I'm going to shoot you dead!" With that, Pazpa undressed himself and impatiently pushed Karen to the ground, entering her body just like the mercenaries had done. Soon, the "Black Dog" mercenaries and Pazpa's men pulled the girls out of the carriage one by one and surrounded them ... 　　Half an hour later, one of Pazpa's men pulled up his trousers and left the crowd. He took out a bottle of rum, walked to a tree, sat down, and sighed, "This deal was really great! I even managed to sleep with a noble lady. When I get back to Seraman, those brothers who couldn't come will be green with envy!" Just as he uncorked the bottle, intending to drink as usual, he heard a "snap" sound. "Huh? 　　My wine?" His companions, hearing the sound of the bottle shattering, turned to look, and the mercenary saw fear in their eyes. He instinctively raised his right arm, only to find his right hand...

It was severed! Suddenly, a sword pierced his heart, exited through his chest, and then swiftly
withdrew .

He slowly collapsed, twitched twice on the ground, and then breathed his last.

Only then did the mercenaries notice. Behind their dead comrade stood a figure clad in fiery red plate armor,
resembling a knight. The knight's right hand gripped a blood-dripping rapier, stained with
the blood of their fallen comrade.

"Damn it!" An armed guard charged forward, raising a large axe, intending to avenge his fallen comrade. However,
the knight's sword was far faster than he had anticipated. Three flashes of white light appeared, and the axe-wielder's right wrist,
right elbow, and both knees were cleanly severed, his torso crashing heavily to the ground. Then,
with a casual swing, the knight slit the axe-wielder's throat with the rapier.

Two more guards reacted, grabbing their scimitars and charging forward one after the other. The knight
deflected the first guard's
attack with an upward slash , then plunged his sword into his chest. Before the knight could pull his sword out, another guard rushed forward, intending to slash at the knight, but was instead kicked
in the stomach by the knight's right foot, collapsing to the ground, clutching his stomach. Taking advantage of this opening, the knight pulled the rapier still embedded in
the first guard's chest, then slashed the second guard's neck.

Only then did the "Black Dog" mercenaries realize they were under attack. They hurriedly
pulled up their trousers, grabbed their weapons, and surrounded the attacker. However, when they discovered that their attacker
had killed four well-trained guards in a short time, this group of mercenaries, who only ever bullied the weak, began to feel fear.
None dared to step forward, afraid of becoming the next victim.

At this moment, Rand stepped forward. Seeing that the attacker appeared to be alone,
he, initially frightened by the attack, instantly flew into a rage and ordered his men to shoot the attacker with arrows. The mercenaries wielding melee
weapons stepped aside, while the archers moved to the front.

Just as the archers drew their bows, the knight held his rapier to his chest and began chanting a spell:
"The power of the goddess descends upon this place, my goddess, protect my people—'My goddess is
here!'" The knight's voice was clear and melodious, seemingly that of a woman, but the mercenaries were
no longer concerned with such details. As the chant ended, a beam of moonlight pierced through the clouds and shone upon the knight, instantly illuminating

the previously dark path . When the archers fired their arrows, they were astonished to find that their arrows seemed to hit a wall , stopping abruptly upon contact with the moonlight beside the knight. Realizing that their opponent was an unprecedentedly powerful foe, a sense of panic began to grow in the hearts of the mercenaries. 　　Seeing that his arrows couldn't harm his opponent, Rand roared in a fit of rage, "He's only one person! Everyone, attack together! I refuse to believe that so many of us can't kill him!" Forced by their leader's intimidation, the mercenaries had no choice but to steel themselves and slowly approach. 　　At this moment, Pazpa, having heard the fighting, also left Karen's grasp and joined the crowd. When he saw the insignia on the knight's chest, he was horrified and turned to run. Seeing his patron flee, Rand realized things were going badly. After confirming his men weren't paying attention, he quietly retreated a few steps and then turned to run towards Pazpa… 　　Having already been tortured for days and then further abused by Pazpa, Karen was nearly unconscious. Just then, she was awakened by the commotion nearby. Realizing that "Black Dog" had been attacked, Karen saw this as a good opportunity to escape. Despite her hands still being bound behind her back, she struggled to her feet. However, the brutality of the past few days had left her body weak and frail, allowing her only to stagger along. Suddenly, she tripped over a protruding rock, lost her balance, and fell to the ground, a sharp pain shooting through her right foot. 　　Realizing she was unable to move due to a sprained right ankle, Karen was once again plunged into despair… 　　Watching the mercenaries closing in, the knight seemed unmoved, merely lowering her right hand, which had been holding a rapier at her chest . Suddenly, with a clang of metal, the knight's helmet began to fold, deform, and finally retract into her armor, revealing her true face for the first time. It was a delicate, youthful face, appearing to be under twenty years old, making it impossible to reconcile her with the ruthless female warrior who had just slaughtered mercenaries. Perhaps to make it easier to wear the helmet, her brown hair was cut short, only slightly above her shoulders. Her brown eyes were calm and unfathomable, making it impossible to read her thoughts. Unfortunately, her heavy, blood-red plate armor completely concealed her figure, making it impossible to guess that beneath the armor lay a beautiful young woman. The mercenaries who had surrounded her were immediately captivated by her beauty. No, upon closer inspection, the girl wasn't exactly a stunning beauty; at best, she was only of above-average attractiveness. However, the shocking fact that the terrifying figure they had just witnessed was actually a young girl was far too overwhelming for them. 　　Suddenly, the corners of the girl's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a strange smile. This expression shattered the ladylike image that had just been established in the mercenaries' minds, yet it also seemed to possess an odd, sinister beauty? A golden light seemed to flash in her eyes, shooting straight into the mercenaries' eyes. At the same time, the girl's clear yet cold voice reached their ears: "The enemy is among you." Hearing the girl's voice, the mercenaries seemed to instantly descend into madness. Their eyes turned blood red , their gazes filled with hatred as they looked at those beside them, then they raised their weapons against their former comrades. The girl who had instigated the infighting nonchalantly walked through the crowd, chasing after the direction the mercenary leader had fled in, ignoring the sounds of fighting and screams that followed... 　　Clutching her swollen, red ankle, Karen squinted in pain. Suddenly, she sensed a figure appear before her. "Damn it, I'm going to be caught by those damned bastards again," Karen thought sadly. However, the figure didn't attack her, which puzzled Karen. 　　She opened her eyes and found that the person before her wasn't the pursuer she had expected, but a beautiful woman.

"What a beauty!" Karen was momentarily mesmerized. The woman before her had long
pink hair tied in a long ponytail with a large blue bow. She
wore a strange blue dress, the style of which resembled that of the busty foreign shrine maiden named Shizuru—something like a
shrine maiden's outfit. Speaking of busty, well, this woman's shrine maiden outfit was also low-cut and backless,
and her breasts seemed to be no less large than Shizuru's. Sure enough, the sides of her thighs were also slit,
exposing her long, beautiful legs.

Karen subconsciously swallowed. This woman exuded
the air . Despite despising those disdainful noblewomen, she couldn't bring herself to dislike this woman. Oh, and
those pointed, furry ears on her head were so cute. Wait? Those looked like cat or dog ears
! Realizing the woman before her wasn't human, Karen began to ponder what race she belonged to.

Seeing the distressed girl open her eyes, the mysterious witch's face lit up with a joyful smile: "Are you
alright ? Do you need any explanation?" With that, the witch bent down and extended her hand to Karen.

Out of fear of the unknown, Karen not only refused the witch's kindness but also
struggled fearfully on the ground: "No, don't come any closer! Don't eat me! I don't taste good!" She seemed to have mistaken the witch
for some kind of man-eating beast.

Seeing Karen's reaction, the witch puffed up her cheeks in annoyance. Her eyes darted around, and she suddenly
had mischievous idea: "You look delicious!" With that, she bent down, bringing her face
close to Karen's.

Feeling the witch's breath so close, Karen's heart leaped into her throat, fearing that the witch would bite her neck off like a beast
at any moment .

Just then, Karen noticed something furry swaying behind the witch. Realizing it
was the witch's tail, and clearly related to a carnivore, Karen fainted in extreme terror . 　　"Huh? Huh? Huh? Huh? Huh? Huh? -- Little Jade, am I really that scary? *crying*" The priestess's face showed a troubled expression... 　　She didn't know how long she had run, but she could no longer hear the screams of her subordinates behind her, nor the clatter of the knight's armor . She seemed to be safe for the time being. Pazpa leaned against a large tree and slumped down, panting heavily. Then, Rand sat down next to him. 　　Not knowing why Pazpa was so afraid of that knight, Rand couldn't suppress his curiosity and asked Pazpa, "Who is that knight? How is he so powerful?" 　　Pazpa gave Rand a look of pity for someone who was mentally challenged, and then explained, " Did you see the emblem on that knight's chest? That's the emblem of the 'Knights of the Righteousness' from the Papal States." 　　"'Knights of the Righteousness'? What's that?" Rand was still completely confused. 　　Pazpa suppressed his urge to beat this ignorant idiot and continued explaining: "The 'Puritanical Knights' are a force directly under the Pope. They are all elite knights and fanatical believers in the goddess. They always lead the charge when fighting heretics and cultists. Most importantly, being an enemy of the Puritanical Knights means being a heretic or cultist yourself, wanted by the nations that worship the goddess, and ultimately burned the stake. Moreover, that knight has received the 'goddess's protection,' making him at least a paladin, no, perhaps even a chosen one of the most powerful. How did you manage to provoke this scourge?" 　　"I don't know either!" Rand replied with an "OV" expression. 　　"I say, you didn't capture a nun, did you?!" 　　"It's Melfa, it must be the priestess Melfa from the Temple of War! That knight must be looking for Melfa!" 　　Rand suddenly thought of that terrifying battle maniac: "But, although Melfa was acting with the 'Blazing Knights,' she's not in our hands now!" 　　"If you told that to a paladin, would he believe your explanation?" 　　"Anyway, we're safe for now. Once we get back to Seraman, we can make a comeback—" Suddenly, Rand swallowed the words he was about to say. He noticed that Pazpa beside him was slowly collapsing, and something seemed to roll to his feet. He looked down and saw Pazpa's head. The merchant 's face remained incredulous, as if he couldn't believe he had left in such a miserable state. 　　Rand's heart jumped into his throat. He looked left and right, but couldn't see the paladin. 　　"Clang—clang—clang—" Suddenly, the sound of a paladin's armor rubbing as she walked came from directly in front of him, and the face of a young female knight, her helmet removed, came into Rand's view for the first time. However, he had no time to be surprised by her gender, nor did he have the courage to resist. A golden light shone in the young female knight's eyes, and then Rand was lost in memories… 　　A year ago, Rand first met the black magician Warren and established a cooperative relationship with him. "Black Hound" covered Warren's black magic experiments, while Warren used monsters and demi-humans to help "Black Hound" rob other adventurers. 　　Soon after, Rand first came into contact with the slave trader Pazpa, and the two built a human trafficking business . Rand amassed wealth and expanded his "Black Hound." 　　Half a month ago, with Warren's help, Rand captured the female knights under intending to sell them at a high price. "After this job, my 'Black Dog' will be invincible !" Rand exclaimed involuntarily, then led half his men toward Seraman. 　　Today, just as he was about to celebrate his victory, an uninvited guest barged in. She had slaughtered all his men and even killed his patron. He was probably going to die soon too. Wait, was he really going to die ? Die in this desolate wilderness? 　　Rand suddenly snapped back to reality. He instinctively reached for his sword, only to find it had been lost in his escape . He slowly raised his head and saw the female knight standing before him, her face full of disdain. 　　"I told you, don't resist." With that, the female knight swiftly brought her sword down. A trail of blood stained the tree behind Rand red, and Rand collapsed, his consciousness fading. 　　The female knight bent down, searched Rand and Pazpa for several documents, and then chanted a few incantations.

Two flames suddenly erupted, turning the two corpses to ashes. She murmured, "Cecilia—"
then turned and left without looking back, disappearing into the night…
