Chapter 1: The Elf Princess Captured
“Darn it, I have been captured…”
Waking up from unconsciousness, Tina Leinster Newmoon looked around and let out a sorrowful sigh.
The last image in her memory was a giant hammer belonging to a general in the Demon Army, getting closer and causing intense pain on her forehead.
Upon waking up again, she realized she was in a cold, cramped cell. Shackles of Demon Realm mithril bound her delicate wrists and fair neck, suppressing her magic.
The warmth beneath her wasn’t caused by her losing control but by the dark red hellstone, which radiated heat.
Everything was unfamiliar which made Tina Leinster realize she was in the legendary Demon King Castle.
It was a fortress of the demon race, located such that at the entrance to the fortress was the abyss backed by the Demon Realm.
As a princess of the Moon Elf clan, she wasn’t surprised to be treated this way.
However, understanding the situation and being able to accept it are two different things.
As the pain in her head gradually faded after waking up, she looked at the dark and mysterious corridor outside the prison bars, illuminated by the eerie green torches, memories of the human storybooks she had seen in the Elven tribe appeared in her mind.
In those storybooks, some depicted legends about the Demon Realm.
Among the most famous rumors was the one regarding the Elves, which is the cruel torture inflicted on many of them once captured and taken to the Demon King Castle.
Some would get dismembered, tortured, or even chopped up to feed the monsters… but those were not the worst fates.
The only situation she was most afraid of was one.
According to the legend, many female Elves captured by the demon race’s interrogators would be driven insane by various strange methods!
Worse still, their bodies would be transformed using the demon race’s dark arts, turning into extremely bizarre forms!
It was said that many of these Elves, even if rescued, could not recover, and some would continue to act as spies for the demon race, betraying their kind!
And most likely she would receive such treatment!
Because the demon race’s motivation for doing this is not just to gather information, but to damage the dignity of the elven race!
In particular, Tina is very aware of how enticing her figure and appearance is!
With flawless skin, hair as silky as moonlight, and eyes like emeralds, her ethereal allure captivated the entire tribe, surpassing even the famed beauty of the Moon Elf race.
Despite being only two hundred years old, her development was exceptional, her ample figure was often envied by humans and orcs alike during battle.
Elves are as perfect, exquisite, and breathtaking as herself and the most likely to provoke the destructive desires of the demon race!
Though Tina was confident in her resolve, the thought of her potential fate made her tremble uncontrollably with fear.
She is starting to regret her rashness.
“Sister Froer… If I had listened to your advice, I wouldn’t have been captured here, right!”
Even as a princess of the Moon Elf tribe, with two centuries of life in the Elven forest, Tina still had much to learn.
But from an elf’s perspective, she was just a young girl who had recently come of age!
This capture was her first time on the battlefield and she fell into an ambush due to lack of experience.
However, regret and resentment were pointless now!
She was just an ordinary Elf Princess, not a traveler from the otherworld with the ability to restart life!
Now, all she could do was pray to the gods, hoping the demons intended to hold her as a hostage instead of something worse.
“Your Highness, Princess of the Elves, Master Lolth requests your presence in the interrogation room.”
A cold, mechanical voice came from outside the cell. Through the iron bars, she could see a huge, pitch-black Golem Puppet opening the door to her cell.
“Interrogation room? A demon race interrogator is coming!”
Tina cried sadly once again.
The Golem Puppet, with not much intelligence, slowly approached Tina. It grabbed the helpless Elf Princess with its strong arms, lifting her from the ground.
Then, it took Tina out of the cramped prison cell, walking heavily through dark corridors and up a long spiral staircase, carrying her like a fainted goose.
It soon brought Tina to a grand double wooden door, adorned with brass bars and rivets. Quiet torches burned on either side, resembling the doors from early Conan animations.
Tina looked at the twisted demon race inscription on a plaque next to the door and the translation below, feeling grave.
“Demon Army Modernized Interrogation Room…”
She whispered these words, envisioning countless tortured and broken-willed compatriots behind the door, who had succumbed to the demon race’s influence.
Despite her imaginings, she is now powerless, and cannot resist.
The Golem pushed open the heavy wooden door, leading her inside.
After entering the door, Tina saw a scene that was completely different from what she had imagined.
She thought she would see a dark and damp dungeon, with torture devices hanging on the walls, torches flickering dimly, and a scary demon with a terrifying expression.
But…
What Tina saw was a rather “simple” room.
The room had grey-white walls, neatly cut floor tiles, a white fluorescent light on the ceiling, a silver-white metal table with four legs, and a folding chair supported by a metal pipe.
On one of the walls, there was a metal door and a huge seamless glass window that almost covered half of the wall.
Pressed onto the folding chair by the demon statue, Tina felt like her head was spinning.
Is this really the interrogation room in the Demon King Castle?
Before Tina could recover from her confusion, the metal door opened.
A strange-looking demon walked out from the crowd.
It was a female demon who looked to be about five feet tall, with a pale face and lifeless eyes. She had a slim figure, wearing a thin black fabric outfit – a round-neck shirt on top and pants below. Two small red horns peeked out from her black hair, and her tail lazily dragged behind her.
She carried a tray with a white porcelain bowl, making Tina nervously wonder what might lie within.
The peculiarly dressed female demon walked straight towards her and placed the white porcelain bowl in front of Tina.
A delicious scent tickled Tina’s nose as she peered into the bowl, discovering a food she had never seen before.
The crispy golden meat was drizzled with brown sauce and covered with plump, pearly white grains, creating an irresistibly enticing aroma.
“Eat up. This is fried pork chop rice.”
Tina hesitated at first, but before she knew it, her hand moved on its own.
Her mouth was filled with juicy and tender pork chops and white grains, the flavorful sauce a perfect blend of sweet and salty, much tastier than any fruit she had ever eaten in her tribe.
“Mmm… this smells so good…”
Tina murmured, noticing the female demon across from her smiling softly.
“Let me introduce myself, I’m Lolth, a succubus and an interrogator in the Demon Army.”
Tina, who was eating fried pork chop rice, was shocked to hear this, she froze on the spot, and the spoon in her hand fell on the table with a clang.
“Interrogator… succubus…?”
She groaned once again.
“Noooooo!”
Then, the Elf Princess rolled her eyes back and fainted.
