38. Aida Joins the Plotting
"I want to help you, my dear." Aida rested her head on his shoulders that night. The Count rotated some time between Lady Erenia, and Aida. "Tell me how I can help you."
Edmund's arms was curled around Aida's exposed body, the young adult healer smiled.
"Well, I'm sure I can do something for you, but... I guess I need to know the truth."
Edmund kissed her, and nodded. He didn't think the system would lie, so, since Aida's loyalty was absolute, there really was no harm. "Very well. I'm a demon lord, and I noticed that I gain powers when I corrupt and have sex with certain girls around the hero, or would eventually rejoin the hero. I know this, because I've seen this story... from another world. I hope to save myself by running away, or gaining enough goddess power such that you girls can protect me from him."
Aida's eyes immediately brightened up. "Wait, in another world... I would join the hero?"
"Yes."
"Whoah. That's really wild. He's just my age, right?" Aida climbed at sat on Edmund's legs, his dragon rubbing against her thighs.
"Yup, early twenties like you."
"Hmmm... So Kiara's part of the gang too. That explains why you've been seducing her and also gained control over her mother."
"Yes. That's exactly right. Let me tell you the rough summary of what I remember." Edmund then gave Aida an abridged version of the hero's story, about how he would slay the 13 demon lords, and then army of beauties by his side.
Aida paused, and leaned forward. "What's stopping you from just running away from him?"
"I can't. The goddess will enable the hero to find me, he gets a demon-sensing ability." I won't put it past the goddesses to start all sorts of weird shit. "So, since I can't run, and fighting head on is a big-no-no, I thus resolved to steal his female partners, and use them as my shield."
Aida nodded along and leaned close. Her breasts rubbed against Edmund's exposed chest.
"Why not I help you get in touch with the other girls. It sounds like not all the girls will be contacted first, and... I wonder whether I can use my healing powers for seduction and sex. I... I need to research this!"
"I'll fund it." Edmund smiled.
Aida wrapped her arms around her beloved Count. "I'll need a reward if I do."
The demon lord smirked, and placed his hands on her slender waist. "What kind?"
"...you know what I like."
