Devouring Monarch: Rebirth of the Profane Phoenix

Chapter 239: The Complications of the Cult



To the East of Lyndwrym, located to the south of the Eastern empire, a massive forest hides the various tribes that create the monster kingdoms.

The orcs control the southern border that touches the human lands, while the western border contains small hills and tunnels built by the goblins and kobolds always at war with them.

In the centre, the powerful but simple trolls live a relatively slow life, while to the north and East, the spider queen rules most of the dark forest and is the de facto leader of the monster council.

Small tribes linger in the various forests and landscapes but have no power against the council of four.

Orcs

Trolls

Goblins

Arachne

These are the four who lead the council.

Meanwhile, inside a hut in the southern forest of Drak'thalar. Inside a dark, messy room filled with a mixture of various scents of women and a single male.

A short male with brown hair and eyes sits against the backrest of a wooden bed, panting with a pale face. Beside him are two large, muscular, green-skinned females on either side, stroking his body with hungry eyes.

"The church has helped our tribe well." The woman on the left with dark blue hair spoke with a heavy accent. Her tone was almost a growl as her huge hand grasped the spent meat between her fingers.

"We will offer the best welcome. Ignore the stupid goblins. They can't make you feel this pleasure." Whispered the other woman in his ear.

The male trembled with a face of bliss.

He could feel their hands crushing and toying with his crotch, with a wet, sticky sound echoing. He could barely breathe as another pitiful spurt expelled itself into their huge palms.

"S-Stop, It's going to break. You'll crush them!"

"Hmmm, then why not crush these useless things?"

"Imagine my huge palm snapped this little thing."

Averis Tate, the Archbishop of the Eastern Sun, had a particular taste in women.

He loved huge, muscular and powerful women.

His long list of conquests ranged from titans, Gigantes and trolls to the muscular beauties of the orcs.

Since the Church of the Fallen Sun supported the monster kingdoms, Averis could pick the women because he was the one who selected which tribe to support.

The women beside him were his particular reward for their tribes.

When his predecessor took over the position, the church had very little sway or strength in the East because of his poor attitude.

As his goal was to build a force capable of supporting the Church of the Sun, the best course of action was to seek support from the monster kingdoms.

Despite his naivety, Averis knew the church needed something they wanted.

And so he requested to marry one of each of the females from each race. He came close to being labelled a blasphemer and betrayer of the faith until he provided the details and benefits of this action.

Because of his foul personality and treatment towards the females, the church grew into a monster tribe. They found Averis to embrace their culture, which, over twenty years, became undeniable.

After negotiating with Averis, the church gained many followers over ten times greater than that of its predecessor, who swiftly vanished because of his lack of efforts for the fallen sun.

Not all tribes accepted him; at first, only the orcs and goblins, who lacked the support as the council at the time didn't have the orcs or goblins, but the kobolds and grey dwarves.

Thus, after seeing the improvements in the goblin and orc tribes over those two decades. The nearby tribes lost in combat might to them in a matter of years. Then, one by one, they sent offers for marriage to the strange human.

It might be interesting that only one tribe refused his offer and remained at the top of the council, but only because of their queen's dedication to power and abandoning all other aspects of life. The church, though, didn't care about some spiders in the north.

They gained tremendous control from every other tribe and could crush her should she ever step out of line.

Today was the anniversary that Averis married these two women, sisters who doubted him at first. Now, they felt grateful their tribe would prosper, even coming to enjoy the masochistic acts their small husband enjoyed.

Orc males usually grew to over two metres tall, with the women around the same height, while Averis was only five feet six inches. His wives felt impressed with how their small husband could even dare to ask for them to be his wives at first, but now it has become quite a harmonious atmosphere. Soon, he would help conquer Lyndwrym, and the church would give him more gigantic women.

Until there was a sudden distortion in the hut, powerful magic forced itself through the barrier Averis created, and crackling flames exploded to form a screen on which a beautiful woman appeared. Like a fairy, she sat on a black throne, her white garb with the fallen sun emblem placed above her heart.

"L-Leticia!? Why are YOU disturbing my relaxation time?"

Averis felt rather annoyed.

This short woman always opposed him during their time as training priests. She would mock his taste and overstep his bounds with such a pathetic body.

Not only could she boast, but her achievements dwarfed his because the entire Romantican Nobility now believed in her and the false church she created to support the cult's growth and financial situation.

"Stop whining! This is the second time I'm contacting you like this, you blasphemous worm. I wanted to give you some good news; thanks to your dumb ideas, the main cathedral has an excellent stronghold and forces are in place for our ambitions to grow. But you have created too many enemies because of your stupidity and thus, your rights as the Archbishop are being considered by the Pope herself."

'What!?'

He suddenly felt himself shrink, both physically and mentally. The Pope never got involved with cases unless the other side gave enough evidence. Not to mention, this was Leticia, his only rival and the one woman he could never like. He could practically feel her delight at his misery.

"W-what does this mean!?"

"If the Pope decides you have stepped out of line, then she will strip you of your rank and excommunicate you. Worse yet, the other three leaders of the cult will hunt you down and take everything you own!"

"N-No, how can this be!? Why is the Pope in their camp, Leticia?! What did you do?"

His wives almost fell off the bed when Averis rushed towards the screen, his flaccid member attempting to flop around but glued to his flesh in its meagre nature. On the other side of the screen, he could feel the judgemental sneer as her lips curled into a smirk and her eyes narrowed before Leticia snorted.

"So small, is it cold in the orc forest?"

"Haha..."

"Hehe, even the human says so."

The two orcs couldn't help but giggle, but for Averis, it was different; it spurred his libido and desire, but from the midget woman Leticia, it was a great insult.

"Quiet, you damned virgin bitch!"

Leticia then laughed loudly. Her cheeky attitude and contemptuous tone reminded Averis of when they were both novices in the church.

The instructors made the entire class complete tasks naked many times as if they were offering their shame and bodies to the Divine Sun. It was during these times that Averis discovered he was much smaller than all other males.

These events caused students to mock him, and he became disillusioned until he would one day meet an ogre during a routine mission in the monster kingdoms, where he would lose his virginity. Her gentle words and powerful embrace saved him. She told him that to monsters, all humans seemed small as he cried in her bosom.

"Heh, okay. I will stop teasing you. The duchess of Drakkur is back at her peak. The Scarlet flame is also completely recovered and the Silver saintess seems to fight for the kingdom of Silvara."

"So, what does that have to do with me?"

Leticia, on the screen, covered her forehead before pointing towards Averis. "Do you not check the situation of the places you are attacking or helping?"

"Why would I care about humans when my love is for these wonderful women!?" Averis moaned as his wives immediately reacted and hugged him tightly from behind, almost crushing his bones.

"Darling!"

"Husband, I love you!"

Leticia sighed and rolled her eyes before shaking her head.

"The reason you haven't grown higher is obvious now. Listen, Averis, the city of Lyndwrym is the territory of Fenix. The current Earl of that territory is Asura Fenix, a young, talented and handsome man who might be our Divine son."

He watched his old rival's face turn pale as she took a breath. Averis knew better than to interrupt her, though.

"Not only that, but rumours suggest the Earl has a relationship with all three! Do you understand now? Why did the saintess wipe out over two thousand of your forces the other day?"

Averis felt great hearing his two wives' confessions of love, but Leticia's words caused his heart to jump. He knew this was serious and would negatively affect his favour with the Pope.

"Indeed, you finally look interested. That's right, while you were acting like a pervert, the saintess wiped two thousand troops out. Though she was a beauty, her sword techniques and ferocity caused hundreds of crusaders to die."

Leticia's figure, now aflame with golden hair, became irate as she continued speaking.

"A woman who we thought might never to leave the capital, same for the Scarlet flame Lorem, a damned phoenix that NEVER left the capital for thousands of years. Now she marches south towards Romantica! MY ROMANTICA! Let alone, the duchess who seemed to become our ally if we didn't attack Drakkur has now declared war upon us and killed all fifty of our spies in the north!"

"Oh, shit..." Averis spoke honestly, wiping his forehead with his palm with an uneasy face.

"Oh, shit..." Averis spoke honestly, wiping his forehead with his palm with an uneasy face. "That means we cannot stop their progress or crush Lyndwrym. What do we do?"

"The only way is to follow the plan of the Pope at the moment the plan to crush Silvara came because the Emerald Empire seemed too powerful. However, the recent events have shown the world is changing faster than we can keep hold."

"Okay, so how can I avoid their wrath?" Averis asked, annoyed that Leticia was so arrogant, even though she wasn't doing anything important.

"Stop what you are doing and head north. Break the relationship between the spider queen and the emerald emperor. I won't tell you to stop attacking Silvara but don't aid them or put your powerful allies at risk. Send the weak and disposable that might betray our cause."
