How to become a Demon Lord: The Former Hero's Journey as a Demon Lord!

Outside the torture room, Alucard stood calmly as he waited for his master to finish with the prisoner. Floid has been inside the room for more than ten hours and he instructed Alucard that no one is to disturb him until he finishes. Alucard has been hearing screams coming from the room for hours and he was surprised that Reginald was still alive. Floid was very skilled at torture. It takes a lot of skill for you to keep someone alive for this long while torturing them!

Alucard knew that the demon lord has never done this before and he wondered how anyone can be this naturally skilled at something like this.

"Arggggghhhhhhhh!!!"

Alucard looked to the side as another shout came out from the room and he stared at Rosavellt. Rosavellt was stoic as she stood with both hands joined in front of her. No one would be able to see even the slightest emotion on her face. But Alucard wasn't just anyone. Alucard narrowed his eyes as he saw the slight twitch of her hands and the grimace that was on her lips. Alucard wondered what Rosavellt was even doing here in the first place. The demon lord personally gave her permission to leave if she couldn't handle this, but for some reason, she decided to stay and listen to her brother's torture.

Alucard didn't care if she was feeling conflicted about all of this. He understood that she wouldn't feel nothing since it was her family member being tortured, and if she was anyone else, he would have overlooked it. But he can't overlook it when the head maid is feeling this way.

"Rosavellt,"

There was a tiny jolt from Rosavellt once Alucard called her name. It was so small that no one else would have noticed, but Alucard still noticed. His senses were sharper than a blade and he could see the smallest movements from anyone. Rosavellt schooled her features back to her blank face and turned to face Alucard with a questioning gaze. Alucard continued like he didn't notice anything at all.

"Do you wish to leave? I can handle this myself,"

Alucard didn't even look at Rosavellt as he said this. Rosavellt turned away as well and stood rigid once more as she answered that she was fine.

"The demon lord will need comfort once he leaves this room. I have to be present to support him. Don't presume to pity me,"

Alucard hummed as he nodded. He could understand her reasoning, but it was still not convincing.

"Are you angry that your brother is getting punished for his crimes? Perhaps you wish to save him? Maybe you want to beg the demon lord to spare his life,"

Rosavellt's expression hardened and Alucard met her eyes with bored impassivity. Rosavellt spoke in a cold tone.

"Do not insult me, Alucard. What exactly are you trying to insinuate? Are you suggesting that I would betray our master?"

Alucard stayed silent for some time before he looked away calmly.

"... I wonder. Will you?"

"Alucard!"

"Arghhhhhhhhh!!!"

Another scream came out from the room and drowned out whatever Rosavellt wanted to say. She looked at Alucard angrily for a moment before she turned away and stood calmly again. She shouldn't lose her calm like this. It is unbecoming of a maid. Rosavellt felt insulted that Alucard would ever think she would betray their master. She has never thought about betraying their master! Master is everything to her!

"I will only let this go once, Alucard. Do not insult me like this again or we will have problems,"

"Of course, Rosavellt. Maybe I took things too far. I apologize,"

Alucard spoke sincerely and Rosavellt nodded as she stopped talking as well. She couldn't tell exactly what Alucard was thinking, but she won't tolerate him questioning her loyalty. She has done a lot for the demon lord and she would willingly do far more! He has no right to question her.

Ka-cha!

The door to the room opened and the two of them immediately straightened up and bowed as Floid walked out of the room. The smell of blood was intense as Floid collected a piece of cloth from Alucard and used it to clean his neck and hands. Floid looked at Rosavellt with a curious expression. He already told her that she didn't have to stay, but she still did? Even if Floid did not pity Reginald, Floid wasn't heartless enough that he would make Rosavellt listen to what he was doing.

"Master, I already prepared a bath for you. Your attendants are waiting there already. Do you wish to go there first?"

Rosavellt said this to Floid as she bowed calmly. The door to the room was open and Floid knew that Rosavellt could see the limp body of her brother hanging from the ceiling but she still showed no emotions. She was more composed than he thought she would be. The only indication that she even saw her brother was the slight shake of her hands when Floid opened the door and she hasn't shown anything since then.

<o>,m Floid nodded as he handed the cloth back to Alucard and started talking about the preparation he asked Alucard to make.</o>

"Have the sentries been sent out yet? I hope you completed the tasks I gave you before I left"

Alucard nodded. Floid had instructed Alucard to send out sentries to every town in the demon world. Alucard didn't know the reason for sending sentries out but he trusted that his master had a good reason. Floid sent out the sentries because he was trying to predict when the undead invasion would happen. He didn't know where they would attack from and so the best thing he can do is to send out spies so that he won't be caught unawares.

"I have sent out two bat familiars to every town in the demon world and Rosavellt has also sent out her skeletons to Aquinas. They will watch out for any changes and we will inform you immediately if there is something important occurring,"

Floid was happy with the progress. As of right now, there were no missions from his system that he had to complete immediately, so he could just relax for a while. Floid and Rosavellt walked towards the bath and Alucard stood outside while the two of them entered. Once Floid entered, he saw both Rizi and Pyra standing in the bath. They had towels tied around their chest and they were holding bowls with bathing essentials. Once she saw Floid, Rizi's eyes widened in shock at the amount of blood on him but she quickly morphed her face back to a calm look once she saw Rosavellt frown at her. Pyra was able to keep her stoic look in place as she welcomed the demon lord with a bow.

Rosavellt made sure that the two of them remained professional in front of the demon lord as she took off her uniform gently and tied a towel around herself. Floid told Pyra to give him a hand and she immediately dropped the bowl she was holding as she came forward and started to take off his clothes. Floid smiled at her as their faces were close and she blushed lightly before ducking her head and continuing to take off his clothes.

"Rizi, give me the report on the latest project. Were the blueprints workable?"

Floid said this as he walked toward the bath and submerged himself in the hot water. He was talking about the blueprints that he drew out and gave to Rizi. The blueprints that Floid drew were for improvements to Hampshire's defenses. Hampshire was the center of the demon world and the closest city to the castle, it was almost like the capital city of the demon world. Floid wanted to create a large defensive wall around Hampshire and place sentry towers all around it. If Floid can make all these improvements then it would be far harder for anyone to attack the capital city.

Rizi answered as she slowly entered the bath and allowed her towel to fall to the ground. she slowly moved towards Floid and she sat over his lap.

"Yes master, we've already requested supplies from the trader, Travy, and we should start construction - Ahh~"

Rizi moaned as she sat down on Floid's dick and penetrated herself. She closed her eyes in ecstasy as she slowly got used to it. It has been months since she last had sex with Floid and she had to get used to it again. Floid leaned back in the bath with both hands on her waist. He gently waited for her to come back to her senses before he told her to continue her report. Rizi tried to stammer out a reply.

"W-We will start construction soon ah~ All the dwarves are on standby for y-your orders ah~ Master~!"

Rizi was not able to concentrate on what she was saying as Floid leaned up and took one of her small breasts between his teeth! She wrapped her hands around Floid's head as she kept on bouncing on his dick!

Rosavellt and Pyra were busy washing Floid's back and arms as they knelt outside the bath. Floid sucked on Rizi's breasts for some time before he pulled back and captured her lips instead. She moaned into his mouth and she put both hands on his shoulders as she slammed herself down one last time and came hard!

"Ugg!!!"

Rizi let out a guttural groan as her toes curled in pleasure! Oh lord~!!!
