Chapter 123: I’m Here To Claim Your Queen

Leo continued attacking the demon castles along the border, which made the demi-humans brave, but when they launched a surprise attack. He put a stop to that and blasted the attackers and defenders away together.

’Stupid people, they won’t be able to fight me,’ he thought with a chuckle.

Explosions erupted all over the place, causing the ground to shake thanks to the force. Once he was done, he scanned the landscape and started headed north only to start seeing demons villages.

His curiosity piqued, Leo descended and landed just beyond the peculiar scene. Before him stood a farmhouse, its rustic charm and familiar design strikingly reminiscent of something from Earth.

He furrowed his brow, taking a cautious step forward as several children appeared seemingly out of nowhere. They ranged from red skinned to blue, which baffled him while thinking, ’Demons?’

Leo shrugged and started approaching the village that looked peaceful, and the smell of strawberries wafted through the air. His stomach rumbled, forcing him to find a bench to sit on.

Ten minutes later, he was standing on the top of the hill before sitting down while getting comfortable. Leo pulled out A Trolls Leg Feast and started eating while watching the villagers going about their business.

He looked up and noticed the sun was setting, which lit up the world in a beautiful orange glow that lit up the rolling hills that stretched into the distance. Once seeing this, Amara’s voice rang out in his mind.

’Leo, the empires have created an alliance to take you out. Emperor Dorian and the princes are leading the charge,’ she revealed, which made his eyebrow rise.

’’Don’t worry about then general,’’ Leo answered with a knowing smirk. ’’I have many surprises in store for this alliance of theirs and you’ll help me lead them with the leadership skills.’’

After giving his orders, he turned to his knight commander with a mischievous glint in his eye. ’’Train everyone for me, Thalira,’’ he said, his tone firm yet playful. A sly smile tugged at his lips as he added, ’’We’ll be causing mischief from now on.’’

Following that, Leo started exploring the demon village, which wasn’t much different from humans’ or elves’ places. By the time the sun fully set, he couldn’t find a place to sleep so searched for a tall tree.

Not long later, he was standing below one before climbing to a high brach and setting up his tent once safe enough. Once that was all done, Leo entered and laid down while getting comfortable as he yawned.

He pulled out some blankets and wrapped them around himself, which kept the cold at bay as he fell asleep. The night passed by quick by Leo woke up while stretching only to hear several pops.

’Where am I?’ Leo wondered, his thoughts clouded with confusion. Then it hit him. ’’Oh, right, the demon empire. Surprised I haven’t been attacked yet,’’ he mused, a wry smirk tugging at his lips.

Shaking off the lingering disorientation, he reached into his Itme Box and pulled out some food. The faint crunch of bread broke the silence as he ate, his eyes fixed on the tent walls as they shook thanks to the weather.

Outside, the rain drummed against the tent in a soothing, steady rhythm, its calming cadence helping Leo relax further as he ate. He leaned back slightly, savoring each bite, letting the storm’s embrace settle his thoughts.

Then, without warning, a powerful aura descended upon the tent, its oppressive weight pressing into the air like an invisible force. Yet, Leo didn’t flinch. He continued eating as if nothing had changed.

He felt a build up of mana just outside, causing him to speak out with a chuckle. ’’Come in, demon woman. I got some delicious food and ale.’’

Seconds later, the oppressive aura dissipated, leaving the air still and charged with tension. The tent flap rustled, then opened, revealing a red-skinned woman with white hair stepping inside.

She held a knife in one hand. ’Oh, an assassin, this will be fun,’

he mused, with glowing blue eyes.

Leo’s gaze quickly took in her appearance, well-built, strong without losing the allure of her feminine charm. Her figure was striking, with a curvy silhouette and armor that gleamed with an aura of power.

Her piercing yellow eyes locked onto his, but Leo, unfazed, leaned back slightly, a playful smile curving his lips. ’’You know,’’ he began, his tone casual yet warm, ’’You demons are beautiful. The more I explore this world, the more I want to learn.’’

The demon woman looked confused, causing him to smile while standing up just before vanishing and appearing behind the demon. She yelped, but Leo landed a solid punch to her ribs.

A loud crack rang out as the stranger crashed into the ground as he spoke. ’’Now you’ve felt what would happen if you try to attack me. Do you want to do it again, miss demon?’’

Silence was all he got before a groan echoed out as she muttered, ’’No. Please don’t hit me again.’’

Leo chuckled softly, his amusement unshaken as he grabbed the red-skinned woman, effortlessly lifting her to her shaky legs. Despite her unsteady stance, her determination didn’t waver.

She lashed out, thrusting her knife directly toward his heart. The blade met his chest with a dull thunk, failing to pierce his hardened skin. He laughed, the sound deep and resonant, as if her defiance only entertained him further.

Before he could think twice, instinct took over. He leaned in and bit down on her neck, his teeth grazing her skin. The sudden act elicited a startled yelp from the demon woman, causing her weapon to slip from her fingers, clattering uselessly to the ground.

Once Leo did that, he questioned with a smirk, ’’Going to stop attacking me, darling? Why not join me? I’m here to claim your queen, so why not be the first?’’

When the demon woman heard this, she shivered but responded, ’’What are planning on doing to me?’’

’’Make you orgasm so much that you can’t walk,’’ Leo answered in a quiet voice. ’’And you can lead some of my monsters.’’

The red-skinned woman nodded before introducing herself. ’’I am Veladra.’’

Leo’s smile grew wide as he replied, ’’Veladra, a lovely name. Do you like ale?’’

’’Yes, but I haven’t had any good stuff for a while,’’ she admitted, her tone carrying a hint of frustration.

Leo motioned for her to sit, gesturing to a spot near the fire. ’’Get comfortable,’’ he said casually.

Once Veladra was settled, he reached into his Item Box and pulled out a bottle of ale, its amber contents gleaming in the dim light. Handing it to her, he watched as confusion flickered across her face.

’’Where did that come from?’’ she asked, her brow furrowing as she examined the bottle like it was some kind of magic trick.

Leo chuckled, leaning back. ’’My storage skill. Now drink up and tell me what you think?’’

Following that, a roar echoed across the land, which made Veladra jumped but he walked toward the tent’s entrance. Leo stepped outside, only to see a massive dinosaur-like Titan was heading in their direction.

He couldn’t be bothered to fight the monster and used his mana to hide the tent and themselves just as the Titan appeared. When the demon woman saw this, her black eyes widened in shock.

’’We must stay quiet. This creature has been causing chaos all over the empire,’’ Veladra revealed in a worried voice. ’’The queen has been sending huntings against it but it’s all been useless.’’

When Leo heard this, he sighed before thinking, ’Maybe I can kill it to help me claim her? Interesting.’

Following that, he shrugged and burst forward while casting Supernova Punch that connected with the Titan’s head. A loud clap rang out as the giant monster was sent flying back into the forest.

Leo chuckled, his confidence radiating through the battlefield. In a blur of motion, he dashed forward, closing the distance in an instant. His fists struck like thunder, landing a dozen precise, bone-crushing blows that left the monster reeling.

The creature staggered, it was shocked as blood sprayed in every direction, painting the ground in dark, glistening streaks. His fists became a blur of relentless fury, each strike faster and more devastating than the last, driving the beast further into chaos and pain.

Before it could recover, Leo leapt upward, delivering a flurry of devastating punches to its chest, each blow reverberating like cannon fire. The Titan bellowed in pain, flailing wildly, but he was relentless.

With a last surge of power, he drove his fist into the creature’s skull; the impact sending shockwaves through the air. The titan’s roar was silenced as it crumpled to the ground, lifeless.

Leo landed lightly beside the fallen behemoth, brushing dust from his hands as if the battle had been nothing more than a casual warm-up. He quickly sent the corpse to his Item Box before returning to the tent.
