Inheriting a Lost Bloodline, My First Task is to have heirs?!
Chapter 111 - 111 - A chance encounter with a blood demon

This blood demon I picked up is quite a character. He's flexible in a way that he begs and whimpers if he thinks he's going to be in trouble then becomes feisty or angry if he thinks he's being bullied. It makes you wonder which one is the real him or maybe it was both depending on his circumstances.

After shivering for a few seconds, his previously cold and eerie voice was replaced with the voice he first used when he woke up. He even added a bit of a stutter once in a while for a better acting effect, "N- No. I don't ne- need your help. Go away! Just untie me and- and I'll le- leave immediately!"

Though I can feel genuine fear this time, I still feel that a huge percentage was still acting. He definitely gave himself away this time since a man's virginity is something that they have to safeguard with everything they have no matter which race they belong to so I guess, it was hard to hide that bit of panic he has in his heart.

It will be fun teaching this guy a lesson for trying to eat me like some kind of food if he acts like this. His level of acting doesn't work on me anyways since I have done a more believable acting with Altair before I got to this world to get more benefits for myself.

I then teased him and said, "I want to feed you before you leave though since you are technically my guest." His shivering became even more severe. When what I said further sank into his mind, he then started to struggle frantically on the ropes that were binding him but I enchanted those with mystique mana so that they won't break easily so good luck on that.

After a few minutes of frantic struggling, he finally realized that he won't be able to break the ropes he's bound with by any means so he went back to begging his way to freedom by saying "Please, I don't want anything from you. I don't mind staying hungry for a longer time. You don't have to feed me! I just want to escape from this town and go back home. My people must be looking for me since I have been away for several months."

I crushed his hopes by simply responding, "I don't think that would be possible right now."

When he heard my response, he suddenly panicked. He almost screamed, "What do you mean? You're a minion of that slave trader, aren't you? Is it fun playing with a desperate being like me? Or are you perhaps the person I was sold to? Is this part of your foreplay before torturing me and getting what you want?"

He is going into a total panic attack, huh? I was just sounding him out with my questions to see why he's here. This just confirmed my hunch that he's definitely forced to work here.

I waited for him to finish his rant and then calmly explained, "I don't work for anybody. I don't have a habit of buying men whether they are slaves or not. I do enjoy foreplay but I am not so sure with the torturing part. As for why you can't leave, you won't be able to escape this place with that slave mark on the nape of your neck. They used one that is especially meant for mystiques. You'll die instantly if you leave the confines of this town."

He seemed to have been stunned and his breath even hitched. The awkward silence stretched for almost ten minutes. He must be thinking of ways to escape his predicament.

After some time, he just ended up sighing. I then changed the topic by teasing him and saying, "I saw that your beautiful back has a lot of scars. That's really unfortunate, isn't it?"

He kept his silence, seemingly listening to me. I then continued to the rest of my offer and said, "If you let me play with you for a bit and you answer all of my questions truthfully, I'll feed you, remove those scars and even that slave mark too. Oh! You'll be free to go afterwards too. I'll help you escape from here. Deal?"

MoHe stiffened and then replied, "What do you mean by play?" I then teased him and said, "You'll know what it means if you say yes."

I heard him curse in mystique language several times as he heard the teasing tone of my voice in my last response. He even smashed his face on to the bed several times in exasperation. It must be an awful feeling to know that you are being blackmailed but you can't do anything about it. He tried to ambush me for my blood and he even lied about not wanting to hurt me so this is just a little punishment for him.

After a few minutes of his tantrum, he then responded, "I agree but we can't do everything. You- you can only touch."

I smiled triumphantly but too bad, he was blindfolded so he didn't see it. He would have taken back his decision if he did. I then clapped my hands once in delight.

I walked towards the bed and sat on one side of it. I felt his body stiffen when he felt one side of the cushion dipping. I conjured a bottle of medicine that I made and started putting it on the scars on his back gently while adding my recovery spells on it. He couldn't help but make soft whimpers due to the heat and pain as I did so.

The scars lightened quickly until no scars were left. As for the slave mark, I simply touched it and did a little spell to decrypt it and cancel it afterwards. The slave mark was removed within three minutes with a loud grunt coming from the throat of the guy.

He was panting heavily as if he ran a marathon since cancelling a slavery brand on a conscious person is honestly quite painful and it exhausts the targets mana and stamina. He's still a mystique so I guess he'll be fine.

Now that we got those two things out of the way, it is now the start of the question and answer portion with matching lie detecting of course. I started asking him about his name which he said was Athan and he proactively shared that was currently only 102 years old. He is quite young for a blood demon since their race only celebrates their coming of age at 100.

The next question is supposed to be confidential information but I guess the drugs have clouded his reason a bit and he readily and honestly answered my questions with occasional volunteering of information that I did not ask. I also asked him if he already has a lover or a wife and he angrily answered that he doesn't have one and he also never dated anybody. He even proudly said that he is still a virgin.

Oops! Let's change the topic.

I then asked him how many are left of his race and he nonchalantly said, 39 and that from those, only 4 were women and he said that all of them are already grannies.

He then went on and said that he came here to spy on the prostitution industry since blood demons rely on lust and blood to live. He was very hungry and ended up passing out then when he woke up, he is already in a cage and had a slave mark on the nape of his neck.

I asked if he knew who was managing this town and he said there was a slave trader named Bartom who kept on babbling that he had strong backers in the capital. Athan then said that the said man was the owner of the slave trade hall and the whore houses in this town. He also shared that he forcefully took the ownership of this town from its original owner. This is interesting.

I quickly sent a message to Aurum with the order to investigate the slave trader named Bartom and to find out who is his backer in the capital. I also gave him information that the said Bartom took over the town of Arista by force from the Vacarro family and turned it to an illegal gambling, slavery and prostitution area. He responded with an "I'm on it. I will give you an update the soonest." That was a quick answer but judging on his personality he may already have an idea who is the backer and he wanted to act quickly before the said backer finds out that he was doomed.

Once I have done my little research, I have to feed the guy as promised. I took a blood orb from my storage and played with it in the palm of my left hand. Once I feed him a bit of my blood, it is as good as revealing who I was and which race I am from but at this point, I don't really care. Who can force me to do things I don't want. Hmpf.

Just to be safe, I circled my right hand around his hip and reached towards the front side of his body that was sticking to the bed. When he felt my hand snaking around, he screamed like a woman asking what I was trying to do and he squirmed a lot to get away from my hand. I held his lower back down with the knuckle of my left hand that was holding the blood orb and then placed my right palm on his womb. He shivered with the contact and seemed to have been stunned.

Taking advantage of this short moment, I placed a birth control spell on top of his womb. I heard him whimper softly as the mark embedded on to his skin. He then started to pant heavily as he said, "What did you do to me? Why do I feel hot all of a sudden?"

I told him, "You were drugged, right?" He then said, "No! Those don't work on blood demons. What did you place on my womb?!" I then replied, "A seal as a safety precaution."

This is the first time I'm using this on a pure-blooded mystique so I am quite curious on how strong its effects were. The seal brought about an instant effect where he seemed to have been affected by a strong aphrodisiac based on this guy's body temperature and how flushed and sensitive his skin became.

I have read on one of the books in the palace that a blood demon's senses become more sensitive in bed if fed with a bit of blood by someone they will have intimacy with. Let's try that next as our experiment!
