Chapter 5: Lu Lu will be a Pawn
***
Lucifer swiftly made his way through the numerous courtyards of the Devilduke household, slipping past several disciples and family members like a fleeting shadow—there one moment, gone the next.
With his cultivation now at the Peak Pulse Condensation Stage, very few outer disciples could even see his speed.
However, unluckily for him, he was no longer in the cover of a dimly lit midnight setting, and there was also someone a bit too strong headed for her own good looking right at him…
"Master, is that you!?"
The familiar feminine voice echoed through the open mansion corridors as a voluptuous young woman, Lu Lu, frolicked in his direction.
"..."
Lucifer felt the girl's soft melons press up against his back and a smile formed on his face.
But contrary to what an onlooker would think upon seeing their 'kind' Young Master's smile, he was happy, not due to affection, but something completely out of anyone's speculation.
'She found them… and she managed to get them all to top it off…'
Lucifer was beginning to appreciate this pawn more than he had expected. Despite what the other servants said about the ditsy Lu Lu, she was quite useful when it truly mattered.
"You are the best maid that one could ask for, Lu Lu," he whispered into her reddened ears, discreetly slipping away the storage ring she had on her left index finger.
'I can smell the herbal scents through the cheaply made space materials of this ring. And if I can smell them, then others will quickly notice this as well.'
It was for this reason that Lucifer tenderly hugged the jittery maid, sneaking not only the first storage ring but two others, all of which had precious herbs in them.
His hands roamed over her plump figure and eventually turned her misty gaze up to his, utterly disregarding the stares from nearby servants.
"Truly shameless!"
"Don't these young people know when to keep things behind doors!?"
"I wish I were that youthful... so vigorous…"
The uninterrupted chatter of the servants brought a deep blush to Lu Lu's pretty face, and she tried to hide her embarrassed expression underneath her long, silky hair.
But much to her misfortune, Lucifer had other thoughts in mind...
He leaned his face right next to hers before blowing hot, steamy breath against her cute red ears.
"Mhmm…~" She couldn't help but release a soft moan before quickly moving her hands to cover up her bright red lips.
Before she could even have any respite, Lucifer spoke, his voice low and seductive, "My dear Lu Lu, to cure me of my poison, I need you to do something more for me. Can you do that~?"
His sweet words slithered into her ears like the words of the devil as his veiny hand trailed down her upper back, reaching the part where her back curved. Once he was there, he pressed lightly with his index and middle fingers.
"Ahhn~!"
Another small moan escaped Lu Lu's small lips as she pulled herself back from Lucifer, only to feel those devious hands move once again, ultimately bringing her even closer than before.
"Tell me, my dear Lu Lu. Would you do anything for me, your young master?"
Even in her foggy state of mind, Lu Lu was able to clearly hear her master's question.
It was this very question that she answered without hesitation, "I would do anything for you, Young Master~!"
Her voice tinged with a moan came out, but that was good enough for Lucifer, as he had pulled the fish so far into his boat that it was impossible for her to escape.
With this level of confidence, he squished her body against his before whispering, "Won't you go and 'borrow' an Alchemy Furnace from the Alchemy Room~? It's the only way to cure my poisoning…"
He followed his flirtatious words with a pitiful voice, using one combo attack after the other!
His effort seemed to bore fruit, as Lu Lu overlooked all the risks of 'borrowing' from such a notable place of the household.
Intently focusing on her master's luscious lips, with occasionally taking glances at his loose, sweat-soaked robes, she blatantly stared at it, captivated by it all.
Even the funky scent emanating from his body was unable to stop the beautiful maid from falling head over heels for the big bad wolf.
"I promise the young master that I will do whatever I need to in order to cure you of your poison~!" she softly shouted before leaning in for another tantalizing kiss.
However, just like before, she was blue-balled to the extreme and left frustrated as Lucifer took her by the waist, spun her around and then walked past her frazzled figure with long, deliberate strides.
Lu Lu watched the receding back of a man who seemed to have completely transformed overnight. Yet, inside her mind, not a single red flag even entertained the idea of going off.
The only thought on her mind was a blossoming love—a forbidden love between a master and his servant.
"Master~" she murmured, biting the tip of her finger as hearts danced around her.
A suspicious liquid seeped through her frilly dress, prompting her to consider the requirement of a wardrobe change. But before tending to that as well as fulfilling her master's request, she made sure to take one more furtive glance in his direction, savouring the sweat glistening on his slightly muscular neck...
…
Hours passed, feeling like the passing of seasons as Lu Lu returned from her mission, narrowly avoiding being detected by the head maid.
Although she was yet to be caught, people were starting to notice that something was up, leading to an increase in vigilance among the servants.
However, none of this mattered for Lucifer, who sat leisurely under a moderately-sized gazebo, sipping on some herbal tea. Quickly noticing the presence of his maid, he settled his cup down and focused on her figure.
"You brought back the Cauldron?" he asked with an open eyelid.
"Yes, you don't have to worry about the poison! I will do anything for the Young Master, even if it means that I have to give my life to fulfill your wishes!"
Lu Lu jumped toward Lucifer with the enthusiasm of a passionate fan, clinging to his right thigh like a Koala.
'She has reached the necessary level of zeal to be part of the next stage of my plan… But it's not the right time yet…'
With these thoughts in mind, Lucifer removed the ring necklace from Lu Lu's tender neck, inspecting the contents of the storage ring.
After that, he lifted her up and placed her onto his lap, saying, "You did a good job, my dear Lu Lu. You truly did something befitting of my favorite maid. However, that's all I need from you right now…"
His voice grew emotional toward the end as he made it sound like he didn't wish to part with her. And thanks to his acting skills, it worked like a charm!
"Young Master…" Tears welled up in Lu Lu's crystalline eyes as she tightly clung to her master's robes.
"Do not worry, my dear Lu Lu. I will call upon you again, and when I do, everything will work out just fine." With these reassuring words, Lucifer gently caressed her head before rising from his seat and walking away like a tragic protagonist.
Based on the last few words he said, Lu Lu was convinced that they would eventually be together, leaving her in a bubbly mood!
But little did she know that Lucifer had something entirely different in mind when he said those things to her…
