Deva brought Raven inside a huge tower that was taller than anything he had ever seen in his life before. It was tall and black and made out of a strange stone that resembled marble in look—however, when he touched the stone, it started to absorb his anima!
"Careful darling... those stones are designed to endure the low mana and desolate world of Hell and absorb magic, mana and aura at alarming rates."
I see... it's a special stone, but this could be used to...
"These stones were found by my mother in the deep depths of Hell where strange, monstrous beasts linger made of pure black essence able to corrode and devour anything they meet."
Those creatures from Emily and Nene's dungeon!?
"We used them at first to stop monsters attacking our settlements as it would devour their aura and mana, but then we realised a new usage and built this tower at the cost of hundreds, almost thousands of Hell citizens... as the draining effect is deadly."
Wow...
Raven looked at Deva with a changed look as he began to realise why the desolate world outside the city walls with nothing but dark red sand and monsters roaming the horizon looked so different from the castle with bright lights and cars and looked no different from the surface city of Arcadia.
"Now these towers take what little mana is produced in this world and filter it for various uses like medical facilities, farming plantations and obviously the city itself."
"Thanks to the way it purifies and discharges refined mana, it means we can use far less to achieve this small haven... but it's not infallible. Droughts of magic can happen, especially during red storms where we lose over a hundred at least..."
Deva looked at him, wondering why he was so quiet before he hugged her tightly, stroking her soft red hair, causing her to feel strange...
It was expected of her to do this, to weigh the lives of people and protect the majority... but inside Raven's powerful arms, she felt comfort and a sense of support that made her solid queen act crack...
"I... I am fine, you know... darling, it's our duty as the punished... to suffer."
"I don't want you to suffer alone anymore—I will help you make this a paradise that no other dungeon or world compares to."
Raven looked into her eyes, the yellow glowing bright from the emotions and feelings flooding her mind and body from this strange orc that she thought just wanted her body for, yet now he was giving her a feeling like her mother did... support, a pillar she could lean on.
"You accepted my women, offered them a place in Hell to keep them safe... How could I not offer you the same back as my woman?"
"I will make this place a world where you can feel proud and no longer have to worry about losing people because of the red storms."
"And to do that, I must become your king."
Deva's mouth opened wide... she didn't mean for him to marry her... as she felt her frozen heart being thawed by this stupid but cute orc.
"I meant marrying Eva... foolish orc... who would want to... Mmmph....!?"
Their lips locked—Raven silenced her words as his tongue invaded her moist mouth, entangling with her snake-like tongue before separating with a trail of saliva connecting their tongues, causing Deva to look at him with a stunned expression as her eyes began to water...
"I want to marry you both. Is that so bad? I mean, since it's a place for sinners, why not allow me to marry mother and daughter."
"Idiot... you big idiot...! My mother would have beat you... then killed you after fucking you! And Eva will be so jealous... and the others...." Deva cried—nothing like his normal wives... her tears were few, but they still began running down her cheeks as she hugged Raven's muscular body, burying her face in his pecs while crying like a little girl as she criticised him as a stupid orc, with a dumb huge cock that melted her brain.
"Wouldn't that just mean your mother would marry me too once she got hooked—" Raven was elbowed in his stomach by the jealous devil; it seemed that Deva was changing after meeting him; he noticed from the moment they met she began smiling more... showing more animated emotions and now... like Eva she was bawling in his chest, while he turned away from the castle to hide her figure.
Her tears and weakness are mine alone. I won't allow others to use or see them.
Deva eventually stopped crying—her face was red and a little puffy as she separated, fixing her messed-up hair and clothes before glaring at Raven.
"Idiot... let's go meet the staff... before I enjoy up mounting you. Damn, I'm so wet because of your stupid pheromones.."
"That's actually a myth..."
"Shaddap!"
Yep... she's just as cute as Emily and Philis... It seems my hunch about her in that room was right.
Raven thought to himself as Deva dragged him away from the castle gates while the women behind him watched with strange looks—Armina and Dianne watched Zeth with caution while Evelyn and Miriam giggled, enjoying this strange place where the women were a little unhinged and crazy.
****
Inside the tower, there was a large amount of space... it was larger than his mansion greeting room or the bureau entrance—there were hundreds of monster girls and devils all working hard at computers and different desks... some were researching agriculture and methods of improving yield... others on how the surface was developing the food paste a special ration...
It was amazing.
Deva introduced Raven to over 100 women—each unique and beautiful, causing him to feel overwhelmed as they all stared at him with shining eyes like seeing a delicious meal... He noticed that races down here were significantly different to their surface counterparts...
The succubi had more twisted horns, their skin was darker with a wet, luscious look, and their tails were coated in a solid exoskeleton, seeming to make it more for self-defence than seduction.
Arachnes were also different—the size was smaller, and their humanoid form was more petite and adorable with tiny fangs and six legs compared to Juniper's eight legs...
Hellcats were more vicious... and had smaller breasts and rumps.
But there were no dryads... which made him sad, wanting to find a Hell version of Emily and compare them... Raven's mind was sometimes just like the typical orcs, but the ladies were too lovely, so that he couldn't be blamed.
After the introduction, Raven learnt that these women were all working hard to improve the livelihood of Hell and its residents...
Each race and monster type lived together... unlike the surface where they segregated—this was because down here, it was kill or be killed, so they had no choice but to band together.
The Devil race, which consisted of Deva, Eva, and the others Raven met, was the ruling species... the others helped maintain the towers and filtered magic...
"Devil females are rare—we require powerful mana and anima to reproduce, hence why our numbers are less than ten, with Zeth being on the candidate list to be impregnated by our artificial insemination machine... However, if you come to like her, please allow her to be a mother... That girl has dreamt of that since she began serving me over a thousand years ago."
"You suffered so much... this feels beyond what you should have to deal with."
Raven looked at the many women who didn't linger. Although many clearly wanted to know him better, they still prioritised work and the future of Hell, which made him make a decision just for the women here.
lightsΝοvεl ƈοm "I cannot promise to become their loving husband... However, if there are women with the same dream and the artificial way fails... Then allow me to become their male partner to at least give them the child they so hope for until this world begins to change... Because even when the world improves... Their bodies won't change right—it will be later generations that see the true benefits.."
Deva looked at Raven with a shocked expression... her eyes blinked twice before she looked at the working woman and nodded her head, taking his hand and leading him deeper into the tower until they reached a sealed area with several guards protecting it...
This was the place where they normally did the procedure, and she hugged him gently with nobody around, her face buried in his chest.
"I don't wish to force you, but I truly hope that you will help those suffering, even if it's only my fellow Devils... and those that yearn for a child more than anything."
Raven wrapped his arms around her waist and felt a mere slither of the weight upon her shoulders and wanted to support her like he did with all his beloved women and their struggles.
"I won't abandon you, but I will prioritise my wives, like you and Eva."
