Chapter 1: Those Who Have Fallen...
"Look at that, never thought I would see one of these things cry." The pair of silvery armored Holy Order knights stood leering at the small figure chained up at their feet, the glow of the ancient holy rune magic circle under their feet illuminating the scene with soft light. The figure laying on the ground was the very image of a young girl barely of age, her cream colored skin was so smooth without a single blemish, naked to the world and showing all of its glory to the men around her. Her supple young breasts heaved slightly with each breath she took, long strands of her silver hair streamed down across her shoulders parted slight by her rosy pink nipples as it draped over her breasts and her golden hued eyes spilled tears softly.
But those eyes were not human, the black slits of the iris thin and vertical like those of a snake, and then there were the very inhuman black curved horns protruding from the top of her head along with the thin horizontal pointed elf like ears. Her long leathery scaled black tail with its pointed nearly triangular tip wavered slightly along the ground and a pair of wings sat folded neatly against her back as she lay there before the hulking Holy Order knights. The young looking lesser succubus girl could barely move, and the moment she tried to summon any of her demonic aura, lightning formed of holy energy lanced from the magic circle around her sapping even more of her life.
"Stupid thing doesn't seem to know better, a few more shocks like that and it will end up nothing but a cold corpse." The older of the two knights snapped his armored foot out and it sent the succubus reeling from the blow, but being careful not to knock her free from the circle and he laughed seeing the blood spill from her perfectly beautiful lips. The other knight approached her slamming his own steel boot right into her gut hard with a sickening thud, then a second time until the lesser succubus lay there blood spilling more from her mouth and her stomach bruised badly. But even during the brutal blows the look of feral wild anger still filled her features and the Knights snarled seeing it only pressing their attacks further until her body was badly bruised all over, blood flowing from some of the impact spots as her skin was broken open. "You ain't so tough when your disgusting demon magic is stripped from you. Things like you are the reason good men and women end up turned into monsters and now we are going to rid the world of your blight then do the same for the rest of you demon scum."
The two knights laughed as they stood over her nearly broken body until the door behind them suddenly slammed open and a tall figure in brightly silver shimmering armor with a red flowing cloak strode in, the knights instantly coming to attention the moment they saw him. His hair was jet black and those cold deadly blue eyes glared down first at the girl then they turned to the men, their backs stiffening even more as the straightened as best they could. "S...Sir Devon! We did not expect to see a Divine Knight here, what can we do for you, Sir?"
"I heard you captured one of the foul creatures here so I came to inspect the situation." His gaze was colder than ice as it peered into their eyes, almost as if looking into their very souls with burning holy purity before once again glancing down at the beaten lesser succubus. Her body showed evidence of her beating, her blood still spilling from her lips arms crossed over her belly but he could still see the damage there as well and his brilliant blue eyes narrowed slightly for a moment. Her own golden eyes moved up to look into his own and Devon expected to see fright within her gaze, but instead he found curiosity within those inhuman eyes then she smiled as her eyes softened looking upon him.
That is strange... When demons look into my eyes of judgment they usually cower... but she looks as if I was her salvation not executor...
