Devouring Monarch: Rebirth of the Profane Phoenix - Chapter 237

Chapter 237: The Transformed Elven Princess
The moment Asura entered the familiar rocky landscape. An image that caused him to doubt himself appeared.

Celine’s spear skewered several goblins. Their bodies tried to pull themselves off it before she pushed her left palm towards them. Then, with a brilliant smile on her face.

“Asura! Watch me!” Her excited voice called out as a golden light amassed from the centre of her palm before bursting towards them in a cone of brilliance.

‘…’

Asura watched, half stunned by the sheer power of her magic. However, the moment he felt the magic aura, it caused him to feel a sense of pain.

A feeling as if he suffered from the same magic in the past.

“When did the cute Elven princess become such a brutal murderer!?”

He spoke in a comical tone, his eyes loose with risen eyebrows and a wide grin. The princess looked a little sad at first. Her eyes drooped with a small frown until she realised he was playing with her, and she lunged towards him with her spear.

“I practised so hard, and you make fun of me!”

The wind from her new weapon, no longer the glaive but an elven spearhead, shot towards Asura, her physical force and power close to Stage Two.

[Impressive, this plump-ass girl has improved a lot.]

Asura’s thoughts flickered, causing the attack of the princess to miss his face.

Celine stumbled, and her face became bright red. Despite being molested verbally, her lips curled upwards before Asura tripped her leg and slammed her onto the rocky floor with a basic sweeping technique.

With a loud thud, she landed ass first with a groan.

“Ahh! You hit me!?”

Asura sighed and squatted beside her, his hand brushing the dust from her body. “Come on, I didn’t hit you that hard.”

She pouted before her hand slowly brushed over the rocks on her skirt. Without effort, she used magic to remove the dirt as if second nature.

Her eyes lifted as Asura brushed her butt, and a glimmer of yearning flashed through her pupils, her lips opening and closing several times as she felt him squeezing her a few times but didn’t speak. Instead turned away with a melancholy gaze towards the far east.

“Thank you for looking out for me, Asura.”

Her voice had changed.

t was still soft, but Asure felt that hidden behind it was the sound of a young woman who lost hope as her brows drooped over her tightly closed eyes with a slight frown on Celine’s face.

“It’s fine. I have nothing else to do but tease you, anyway. Shall we hunt some more goblins and give you another massage?”

“I-I… would you feel upset if another man touched your future wife’s naked body, even if it were to help her become stronger?”

‘Hmmm? Is this about her? Let’s see. I guess she is a princess, and her mother might have arranged a spouse for her.’

Asura remained silent as he recalled his original life. “Ah, I would probably be furious and call her all the names under the sun.”

“So, why did you keep touching me? That was so embarrassing!”

Her voice changed to a high pitch with a series of angry mumbles, and he couldn’t understand anything she said. Celine, in the centre of a goblin camp, pulsated with a divine aura—her hands gripped Asura’s chest with tears welling in her eyes, looking up towards his face.

However, Asura’s eyes became sharp.

He felt the emotions inside him more clearly after accepting Azoth’s Devil Shroud and memories. He wanted to make this elf his, to destroy the princess and make her desire nothing but him.

A dirty and primitive feeling, partially out of revenge for Azoth’s fate and the other part of Asura’s lust towards such a delicate and beautiful creature.

“Because I wanted to defile you and make you mine.”

His eyes stared straight into hers, the usual joking tone absent, replaced with the charming yet intimidating aura of a devilish being. Celine’s breathing became unsteady. She could feel her heart beating at a rapid pace as he pulled her towards him in an embrace.

“Break free, or I will forever destroy any happy future you might plan. I will come to that little continent to the east and take you by force.”

Asura threatened her, his hand lowering from her back as his fingers slid along the supple skin of her ass. Despite the tight skirt and panties blocking his movements, Celine felt every motion as if they were directly rubbing on her buttocks, her body becoming warm as she bit her lip.

“B-But Mother will.”

“Then disobey her. You are already powerful enough to fight alone in this realm, are you not?”

Asura’s left hand remained on Celine’s waist. The other pressed her head into his chest to listen to his heartbeat while his words echoed in her ears. The scene seemed to overlap with the memories of Azoth, a distorted vision, but Asura could feel it.

Azoth didn’t hate the young Elven queen, even when she invaded his Abyss.

‘Although Celine isn’t her, but a family member. I can understand that memory more now.’

He realised his feelings were too strong because of his recent changes and ruffled the poor elf’s hair. With a wide smile on his face, he pinched Celine’s nose, causing the elf to snort like an orc.

“Buhi!?”

“Don’t worry, Celine. I won’t force you into anything. But I won’t let you marry someone else either.”

She appeared to realise something because Celine’s eyes shook with a flash of light, her lips curling into a faint smile before she struggled to release herself from his arms.

“Is that the reason you were so touchy? Asura, you stupid Devil. Leave my ass alone. It’s too soon for that!”

The fiery young woman’s eyes flashed with a brilliant smile. Her white teeth, perfectly aligned, shone in the moonlight as Asura felt stupefied by the beauty of the woman who left his arms.

“What a jerk.”

His mouth curled into a smirk as the princess flicked her stupidly long backwards. A series of strange movements caused the clothing on her body to loosen while she pouted with her adorable face, looking like a small animal that made Asura want to bully her again.

“Alright, let’s see if you can take care of them like you did last time.” Asura smirked, watching the distant goblins attracted by the divine light in the middle of the night.

“Why don’t you try to keep up?”

As if a switch had turned on, the feisty princess blurred in the night, her feet landing on a goblin’s head as she broke its neck with a snap. Her spear punctured several more before she side-stepped a rock and shattered it into small pebbles using the same method as Asura when they first met, shredding their bodies with a twist of her wrist.

“Hehe, see I’m amazing!”

However, on the other side of the canyon, Asura stood in the centre of a dozen or more corpses, torn to shreds with nothing but his bare hands, wrapped in dark armour and claws.

His smile was like that of a wild beast, his eyes glinting with excitement before he crushed the last remaining goblin and threw the head towards her.

[Why does he look so sexy when being so brutal!?]

Celine pouted and smashed it with her iron pole from the air before tossing it back at Asura, causing the man to dodge and shoot towards her in an instant.

“I can’t win with a weapon!”

With a brilliant smile, Celine tossed the spear towards Asura and tried to smash his face with her elbow before twisting to deliver a kick.

The graceful, seamless movements continued without stopping as the pair danced across the rocky surface, the sound of flesh meeting flesh, Asura easily deflecting her sneak attacks and attempts to use her breasts and ass to seduce him to a disadvantage.

Celine panted and skipped back, and her knees buckled while Asura appeared at her side and grabbed her collar, throwing her back onto the rocky ground. “Get naked!”

Celine panted, her eyes wide open as Asura knelt beside her and ran his fingers along her spine. The instant he did, she released the most unladylike sound from her lips, like an animal in heat.

“N-Not today, you dirty Devil! Hya!?”

His finger continued to trace over the rim of her body slowly, the ebony leather blocking his progress as she cried out for him to stop.

Her face reddened with frustration while hastily trying to unfasten her armour to enjoy the massage that she hated to admit became addicting for her after the tough days at the palace.

[Hurry, I want to enjoy that pleasant feeling again. Hehe, stupid Asura.]

“Good girl, now, let me continue my original body examination. This time, I will finish the job and send you to heaven.”

“No, you can’t! What will the people say?”

“Why is your mind so dirty, despite being an elf?”

“You made me this way. I was so pure and chaste!”

“How did I corrupt you? You should blame your weak body for falling to pleasure too easily.”

“This is because you were too good and I came before I knew it!”

“Liar!”

“Ahhhh!? Where are you touching me?”

“Let’s just get it over and done with, Celine.”

“Hya… no! This situation isn’t fair, monster, cheapskate, molester.”

“Tch, are you calling me a cheapskate after I shared my best technique with you?”

“I’m sorry. Please don’t pull spank me anymore! I’ll do anything!”

The Elf and Devil spent the rest of their time enjoying the delights of transferring Magic between their bodies. For Asura, he realised that her divine element seemed to improve the quality of his organs and muscles, old wounds and scars repaired slowly with each revolution, and the darkness in his heart seemed to find balance slowly.

[I guess I needed you as much as you needed me.]

“Agh… Nnn!?”

Celine couldn’t answer because her body was breaking through to Stage Three, the pain and pleasure colliding in such a way that she could only drool with her eyes wide open, clinging to Asura while naked despite the foul black impurities leaking from her pores.

“Ugh… Disgusting, is this part of it?”

Celine mumbled, her mind suffering from the intense stimulation, causing her eyes to turn red with a feverish glow before her body shivered slightly, her magic power increasing beyond her limits as the golden light destroyed her impurities as if the Magic reacted purely to her embarrassment.

‘I feel like I’m developing a strange fetish.’

Asura’s thoughts flashed as he watched Celine’s beautiful features clean themselves from impurities through purification magic. He stood up with a laugh and carried the elf towards the small pool in the same cave they always met—the water always seemed hot and bubbled slightly.

“Care to bathe with me? Although I’m afraid I won’t be able to hold myself back if you fall unconscious while in my arms.”

Asura spoke in a voice that forced her to wake up.

“Hmph! Don’t here, in a bed at least!”

“Heh. I was joking.”

Her stubbornness caused a flash of light to run through Asura’s mind before he embraced her naked body and entered the pool. Asura’s hands rubbed and touched the soft skin of the princess, causing her to squirm in his arms, her toes kicking the surface of the water while her hands punched his chest with no actual force.

[I wasn’t]

Celine’s gentle whisper echoed in his mind, making Asura’s face solemn. He looked at the elf in his arms and felt conflicted. There were a few reasons for that, but the primary was a part of himself that still hated Elven women after seeing Azoth’s memories.

However, he found this feeling a little strange.

Since Azoth himself loved the Elven queen as much as Muru.

“Celine.”

“Mm?”

“There is no need to rush. I won’t vanish suddenly, but you don’t need to force yourself when you aren’t ready. Nor will I let you marry someone else. I will come to your kingdom and properly deal with your situation in the future. I promise.”

Celine didn’t move and remained silent for a few seconds.

“You’re a jerk.”

She whispered and pinched his thighs underwater.

“Please don’t make me wait too long. I want to enjoy this kind of fun and excitement every day.”

Her shy confession caused Asura to realise that she was in a difficult position. Despite having grown up in a similar environment, Asura’s memories told him that she was a princess with a major position in her society.

‘I guess becoming King is the best way to have enough clout to at least give her a chance to become free. There is also working with her elder siblings and stealing her away, but officially taking the elf princess would be best for Silvara.’
