Demon of Depravity

"What were you doing?" Valac suddenly pulled me out of the water while I was drowning, after all the drowning wasn't so bad.

"I...was just lost in thought h-haha" I make an excuse even though I was drowning a few minutes ago.

"Drowning?" He questions.

"I-I wasn't" I tell a lie.

"You were crying as I can see, and also seem to have been under the water for at least 30 minutes" He questions me as he removes me from the bathtub.

'I think I'm starting to get used to the pain...' Drowning didn't seem so bad, it hurt a little but knowing that I'm worse than I thought was much worse.

"Little sister, you lie very badly, could you be honest?"

'There's a cut on his arm...' It was definitely Uriel, almost no one can hurt the 7, let alone to the point of actually cutting their bodies.

"I...feel bad, I just feel bad" I clearly feel bad about myself.

"Why?"

"Big brother, could you unblock my powers?"

"..."

"Little sister, I don't know what you're talking about" He says in a calm tone and with a smile while using magic to put a dress on me and dry my body.

"I saw my true status" I decide to be honest, Valac should be able to help me in exchange for something.

"...How?" He questions me, obviously I shouldn't know this, and if I was supposed to know it should be much later.

"...It was Beelzebub's fault" I coldly blame someone else.

"...I imagine you have a very bad status...Want to show me?" He asks as he guides me to the table in my room and places a paper and pen on the table.

"...Okay..." I start to write, each title is worse than the other, I sigh the world is now 100% gray and only Valac has color which automatically highlights him.

"Here they are" I hand him a paper with almost all the titles, I only hide titles like the ones that imply I've had sex with monsters like wolves and insects as well as time travel titles.

"I understand, these are really complicated titles...mom was always complex"

'Mom?' He didn't call her Aurora, maybe because he doesn't see the need to hide that Aurora is his mother now that he's seen that I know these titles.

"Big brother, help me explore the castle? You don't need to say much...just protect me" I ask Valac.

"I don't know" I throw myself at him crying.

"P-Please! It hurts me so much, I want to forget this with something" Actually it doesn't hurt that much, yes it really hurts me, but I'm already used to it.

If you combine trash with more trash, you only get an accumulation, it won't become much worse than it already was, so at least I'm going to ask Valac for help.

If Valac helps me, everything will become easier, traps, monsters and the others won't be a problem.

Valac doesn't mind having sex in threesomes or foursomes, but that's only if it's in the beginning, but Valac has started to show signs of becoming obsessed.

This is noticeable based on the time they spend, in the game they usually take a while to appear on repeated days, that is, they appear once and then take a while.

But Valac appears at short intervals, and the fact that as soon as he expelled Uriel he has already returned shows this.

"...Okay little sister, I think I can help you a little, I have free time anyway"

'Liar' I don't know what they do, but it's a fact that none of the 7 have real free time to waste, and the more they spend time with me, the more it annoys the others because it increases their "work".

So Valac spending so much time with me is bad, and this is where his hobbies and I come in, for some reason the 7 can do their "work" and their hobby whenever they want so much that Beelzebub spends a lot of time watching me.

But the 7 can never do their work and spend time with me, I don't understand why this is so, but it's a fact that being with me and not being with me causes some variation.

'Maybe...it's the titles? Is it because I'm a demon king too?' This would explain some things.

"Big brother, why am I the demon king?"

"Well, that's because...well...I don't think I can talk about that"

"I-I'll do anything!"

"Anything?"

"Y-Yes, anything!"

"Okay, then you'll go to my room and participate in something I want, and in return I'll tell you why you're a demon king"

"Yes, I accept!" It's better than drowning in pain.

"..."

"Haaa..." He sighs.

"Let's say this, what defines a demon king?"

'I have no idea...' Ironically, only one of the 7 is actually of the demon race if I'm not mistaken, besides him, all the others are of different races, but even so they are demon kings.

"It's quite simple, they are something that directly causes some natural force in the world, they all have something that was taken from the world and placed in them"

'The sins...' Each of them had a sin inserted into their bodies.

"But...I'm the demon king of depravity..." Depravity is in a way connected to lust, but we already have a demon king of lust.

"Aurora is the demon king of eternity"

"..."

"I think this conversation ends here, I've told you more than I should have, let's go" He gently pulls me by the hand out the door.

'Aurora...is a demon king too? How? And why?' I try to think about this, me being the demon king of depravity and Aurora being the demon king of eternity has to make sense.

'Maybe...it represents something?' Eternity in this world basically symbolizes the pillar of creation, so going in this direction, depravity does not mean lust, but rather it would mean the pillar that erodes or corrupts things.

The representation of what corrupts other things in some way, not necessarily focusing on lust, but on any aspect that is linked to corrupting something else.

Some of my titles also cite this that I corrupt something or that I am profaning something even though I have not directly done anything to deserve such titles.

'Depravity...obsession, is that it? Is that why they can all become obsessed with me? Because I'm corrupting them and preventing them from fulfilling some previous duty'

"Big brother...what's my authority?" All demon kings have the so-called 'Authority' in the status, authority refers to their influence in relation to others, which is more linked to their position in the world.

But for demon kings, authority refers to two terms, both the status and a skill closely linked to what they are.

I've never seen any in action, but I know that Valac's, he can flood someone with the "sin of lust" that would instantly kill any person, after all it's like receiving pleasure equivalent to billions or even trillions of beings at once, far exceeding what someone should feel.

And they all have some authority, so I must have one too.

"I don't know?"

"..." He may not know, but I think I do, Ayla was never fit for combat, so everything in her boils down to support things or passive things, so much so that in the game most of the things are passive.

This means that my authority is not an attack, my authority is a possible passive, and if I'm right, I just discovered a powerful weapon.

I let go of Valac's hand and go to the window, opening it, what's in this specific window is a very high place.

"Little sister?"

"Big brother, I hate this, I hate my life! And I hate myself!" I jump out the window, I want to test this, and if I'm right, two things will happen in a row.

The first is Valac saving me and the second is Valac scolding me, and just as I imagine, he quickly catches me with magic and brings me back, then starts to scold me.

"Little sister, that was very dangerous so I think I should pay more attention to you" He puts a chain on my ankle, it's not connected to anything, but I recognize it.

"..." As soon as he turns around, I quickly run and jump out the window again, he hears the noise and quickly saves me again, he scolds me more severely and threatens me while the chain on my ankle tightens.

"...Sorry big brother...it's just that everything is so hard and I can't stand it anymore...sorry for being weak"

'I...really affected him...' In the game, their obsession makes them act differently than the standard and this was something that made the game difficult.

Valac just demonstrated two clear signs of obsession, but these are signs he shouldn't be demonstrating yet, Valac didn't care when Ayla suffered in the game.

But when I tried to use my authority, said I hated myself and tried to kill myself, the 3 acts in sequence caused his obsession to jump to some new levels.

Which only means one thing, Ayla has the ability to "depraved" others based on her actions as her authority, depending on what I say, do and try, the actions of those around me change.

How did I never notice this? It was always in my face, everyone I interacted with so far changed based on my actions, when I was taken to Fenrir the first time, he just wanted to rape me and have children.

But in our second interaction, my lack of resistance and sadness made him want to help me, now why? He's a cruel monster, of course he said it's because I'm his wife.

So what about the librarian? His actions changed, and Beelzebub's, and Leviathan's, each one I met acted based on my actions and how I acted.

So much so that Lucifer, who is proud, wasn't as bad as I thought he would be, when in fact my actions were nothing special to affect him.

This also explains why Leviathan raped me on the first day, Leviathan is relatively "peaceful" and is more interested in food than sex, and disrespecting food would have a physical punishment, not a sexual punishment.

It's just that in my mind, my biggest focus since I arrived has always been rape, in my mind they've always had lust for my body as their focus, and just as in my mind they were lustful, they were.

My authority has always been active, I just never noticed because I was too stupid to see it.

So because my mind has always seen them as something lustful, they were affected to act in a more lustful way than normal, and that's why I'm the demon king of depravity because at all times it is I who make them more lustful.

This also explains why Uriel is different from the Uriel in the game, it's also my fault and my desire to be saved.

"..." I wish I had known this fact before, now my mind can only have lust as satisfaction and as such my passive will continue like this.

I just don't know how wide the effect is, but since I've proven it's like this, I think I can raise Valac's obsession to the max pretty quickly.

Even if my authority is "blocked", it can still be used.

Since something being blocked doesn't 100% prevent its direct use, and since it's a passive, it would work even if it's blocked, being blocked only prevents me from knowing what it is.

I hug Valac from behind.

"W-Want sex, big brother, please take me as yours right here"

"We don't need rooms, I just need you inside me" Valac freezes in place and his penis becomes erect, in my mind my deepest desire is sex and obsession, I want to be unforgettable to Valac.

My system opens up on its own in a specific part, showing two things, first that I was right about my authority, and second, that Aurora is someone terrible who wants me to be smart enough to figure everything out on my own with minimal clues.
