A Demon's Journey

When Noah entered the cabin, he perceived that this cabin was rather small. It had a table, a chair, and a large bed. He noticed that Luna was in the room as well. She was seated on a chair and smiling at him. She greeted Noah by saying, "Heya."

Noah returned her greeting with a smile, "Hey." He was feeling a little dizzy and Aria had him sit on the bed. She then turned to gaze at Luna's face and subtly nodded. Luna understood that signal and picked up a transparent bottle that was placed on the table next to her.

In this bottle was pure vodka. Luna poured a bit of vodka into a cup and handed it to Noah, "Leader, you don't look well. Drink this. It's a medicinal juice. It's a little bitter, but what good medicine isn't? So, please ignore the taste and consume it."

Noah gazed at the little cup in his hands for a long time, pondering something profound. Aria and Luna were becoming more and more anxious by the minute. They realized that the longer they waited, the more likely Noah would notice something was wrong.

Before this happened, they had to force him to drink so much alcohol that he wouldn't realize what was going on around him. Thus, Luna signaled Aria to help her as well. Aria understood the signal immediately and spoke with a rather calm tone, "Leader, you shouldn't be scared of this medicine's bitterness. If you don't stay well, we will lose our next battles against the Sinyalian Kingdom's Forces. How will we answer Master Azaroth if we lose too many comrades in this battle? Thus, you need to stay in perfect condition!"

"I am not sick," Noah spoke a little stubbornly. However, a frown did appear on his face as he realized that Aria was also right. He looked at her and spoke, "Why should I drink a bitter medicine when I am in perfect health?"

"…We understand that you are in perfect health, leader. However, we are giving it to you as a precaution. If you have some issue, this medicine will resolve it. Leader, do you want to go in the battle in an unfit condition and put all our lives at risk? No, right? So, please drink this medicine," Aria finally finished speaking as she persuaded Noah to drink vodka.

When Luna saw Noah swallow that swig of vodka, she grinned. Unlike whisky, which took a long time to exhibit its effects, vodka was powerful alcohol that had an instant impact. She grabbed the bottle and poured vodka into another cup.

Just as Noah had finished swallowing the first shot, he was handed the second shot. This time, Noah didn't resist it as fervently. He realized it wasn't as bitter as he had imagined. In fact, he found out that the taste was a bit intoxicating.

After getting him a couple of shots more, Aria and Luna noticed that Noah was getting drunk. He had a bit of control over his conscious mind and could still speak. If they had him drink any more alcohol, he would be wasted. That wasn't their intention.

They did all this to make him talk. Not to have him sleep peacefully. It was Luna who spoke first, "Leader, I have something to confess to you. Actually, I have been feeling rather uneasy that so many of my comrades are leaving."

Noah heard that statement and suddenly latched onto Luna. He spoke as his words slurred a bit, "I knoooowwww. I feeeel the saaame. I-I trained them. Gave them all my time and whatever they needed, and this is how they repay me?!"

"Aaallllll of them are leaving me after becoming a romantic couple. Tell me Luna, Aria, are we not family? So, why are they leaving this family to form another one?! Are you not happy with me here?" Noah asked numerous questions under the influence of Alcohol.

Aria and Luna were getting a little overwhelmed as Noah proceeded to speak nonstop. Noah spoke up, "If they had an issue, they should have spoken up about it. I would have tried to find a solution to that issue! But why are they leaving?! Why?!"

Noah screamed out the last question. Luna and Aria had no idea that this was what Noah kept buried in his heart.

"Master is so far away, and I have no idea when I will meet him. Even William left and who knows when all of us will get together again. I really feel so lonely and weak sometimes," Noah spoke as he hugged Aria.

Noah's tears were steadily soaking Aria's blouse, but she didn't say anything to stop him. Luna began massaging Noah's feet while Aria softly stroked his head. Noah had no idea that he was lying between two lovely women who were doing their utmost to soothe him. Their plan was indeed working as Noah was showing signs of calming down.

"Leader, not everyone is leaving you. We will forever stay by your side, right Luna?" Aria informed Noah with a soothing and sincere smile on her face.

Meanwhile, Luna gave a bright smile and spoke, "Yep! Why would I want to quit this group when it has all of my friends and a leader who would go to any length to defend and strengthen us?! Those who left are all stupid people who don't know what they are missing!"

Noah suddenly cocked his head in Luna's direction and spoke, "No! Don't talk bad about them. T-they are just doing what they feel is right. We have no right to talk badly about them!"

Luna was about to say something, but she received an intense glare from Aria that turned her silent. It was only a couple of seconds later Luna realized that if she tried to argue about this point, it would only irritate Noah. In Noah's current condition, he could be excited very easily. And it wouldn't be a good idea to get on Noah's bad side.

In reality, Aria stopped Luna from talking about this topic because she didn't want Noah to dwell on this matter. He must learn to let go of these connections. "Yes, Leader," Luna slowly spoke.

Noah was seemingly satisfied with her agreement and spoke, "…I also wanted to apologize to you two and your close comrades who had to leave their sects and join my group. What I did was basically kidnap you and didn't let you leave. You must have parted from many of your friends in your previous sects. I-I truly apologize for doing all that."

Aria and Luna were both startled to hear that genuine apology from Noah. They didn't expect that he was also thinking about this and were extremely touched.

"Leader, you don't need to worry about this. I am thankful that you chose me that day and allowed me to join your amazing group. Frankly, it's only here did I come to realize that I wasn't leading my subordinates. I was just a manager who had a bunch of underlings." Luna spoke as she continued to massage Noah's feet.

"One of the finest things that could happen to me was you inviting me to join your group. In the Night Mountain Sect, I had a fake sense of security and pride in myself. The sect promised us great benefits, but in reality, it was using us to enhance its power. It has only been a couple of months since I left the sect and I have experienced a great boost in my power! I now realize that the sect was actually suppressing my growth. If I didn't join your group, I might have never realized this fact," Luna finished speaking.

It was now Aria's turn to speak, "When I joined your group, I was indeed quite distressed that I would have to leave behind my friends. However, I realized that this group is different from others. Even though a leader's life is most valuable, you are the one who takes on the most risks. You retreat only when all of us have retreated. You don't give up even when the odds are stacked against you. Even though I am so much older and should have a lot of experience as compared to you, I feel like I am learning new things from you every day."

"So, thank you, Leader, for defeating me and abducting me that day," Aria thanked Noah and slowly lowered her head and covered his lips with her own. Luna's eyes widened as she didn't expect Aria to take action so quickly.

It was Noah's first kiss, so he was taken aback by the lovely sensation. As their kiss became more passionate, his tongue contacted Aria's tongue. Aria soon released his mouth as the two began to take deep breaths.

At that moment, Noah and Aria heard Luna grumbling, "I wanted to be the one to kiss him first."

Noah's eyes widened at that statement and as he was taking deep breaths, he saw Luna's lovely lips coming closer to his face. Soon, Luna was kissing Noah's lips passionately.

Aria showed no envy as she watched Noah reciprocate the kiss with enthusiasm. Luna had feelings for Noah, and she knew they were equally as intense as hers. She was already at peace with this truth and didn't mind sharing Noah with her.

Noah's ability far outstripped anybody she'd ever seen, she knew. It would not be surprising if he had a huge harem in the future. However, Aria and Luna wanted to ensure that the two were in that harem and were extremely close to Noah's heart.. Thus, they felt that fighting about this issue would only result in their loss and had come to an agreement much earlier.
