S-Rank Harem: I Became My Character with Extra Control Skill

Ryan stared at the woman in the middle of the dark basement for a moment.

Even though she was asking for enhancement buffs directly applied to her body, he didn’t notice any true urgency or worry in her features.

The Demon Queen seemed to be acting with complete tranquility in front of the holding cells, maintaining an attitude that denoted total control of the situation.

’It’s another one of her whims, it seems like the women of this world, the more powerful they are, the more capricious they also become.’

The thought flashed through his mind rapidly as he remembered the demanding behavior of the heroines he managed back in his own village.

”In fact, I am a Templar, I followed the next sub-class.” He commented clarifying the difference, in response to the question she had thrown at him.

”Is that so? I see... not that I know much about human systems, when I faced heroes, I just killed them without asking.”

She said it in a direct manner, completely downplaying its importance. For an existence that ruled through the pure force of her mana, the divisions of human roles were a rather useless detail.

But the woman wasn’t satisfied with that answer and planted herself firmly right in front of him. She leaned her body forward, reducing the scarce physical distance separating them on the cold stone floor of the basement.

Ophelia placed both hands on her hips, accentuating the curve of her waist while holding the boy’s fixed gaze.

”But whether you are a Priest or a Templar, can you buff me or not?” She said puffing out her cheeks with evident annoyance at the human’s delay.

She looked like a spoiled little girl demanding a toy, even though due to the strength of her real stats, which Ryan still couldn’t manage to inspect, they were probably capable of wiping out an entire army with ease.

And before Ryan could answer, the heavy chains anchored in front of them resonated loudly against the wall.

The glowing metal clashed together amidst the gloom of the underground, shattering the atmosphere that was forming between the two of them.

”What is all this racket...” the most robust demon complained, moving his head heavily while opening his eyes slowly.

”Tsk, they woke up already.” The demon queen complained in a bad mood, immediately diverting her attention from Ryan’s face.

Ryan remained perfectly still in his position, observing the two existences suspended by the chains.

’Those chains, they are actually relics, aren’t they?.’ Ryan thought to himself, looking directly at the demons who were waking up from their trance.

They, sensing the presence of an intruder within the tower’s cell, looked at Ryan with strangeness and curiosity from the darkness. Their eyes fixed on his dark clothes and his appearance.

”A human? What is all this? Ophelia, do you surround yourself with human heroes now?” the thinnest demon said with disdain, despite being chained.

His tone of voice was harsh, full of the pride that the creatures of the demonic continent possessed toward ordinary mortals.

Spit.

A wet sound cut through the silence of the basement when the largest demon gathered saliva and spat directly onto the stone floor.

”How low have you fallen, are you working with the church too now?” the robust beast questioned, baring his fangs with a grimace of disgust.

The atmosphere inside the room began to heat up suddenly after hearing the prisoners’ insults. The temperature in the underground rose several degrees in a matter of seconds, making the air in the cells heavy.

And Ophelia’s long hair rose slowly with the movement of the wind that was provoked by the release of her immense aura.

’It seems like they have already angered her, it would be best if I don’t interrupt her.’ Ryan thought watching the scene in front of him in a completely neutral manner.

He crossed his arms over his chest, limiting himself to observing the woman’s body language and the reaction of her victims. The expression of both chained demons drastically changed upon feeling the dense pressure of the queen’s mana on their shoulders.

Their bodies tensed up against the stone of the wall, almost as if they were regretting having provoked her in such a stupid manner.

Sweat began to run down their skin as they realized they had absolutely no way to defend themselves from her wrath while being chained by the relics.

”Shut up, right now I am curious to know, what are a pair of dogs like you doing in my domains?”

Ophelia’s voice dropped in volume, acquiring a hard and dangerous texture that echoed in the enclosed basement.

”What the hell is Lucerys planning by sending you here?” the queen demanded, taking a slow step forward.

Ryan observed everything in silence, catching the newly revealed name. A name he had heard before.

’She is talking about the demon king, so, are these guys from his army?’ Ryan deduced in his mind with total speed.

”We already told that disgusting dragon, we were on Luciela’s trail, and we ended up here, it is all a misunderstanding.” The largest demon responded.

His tone of voice had lost all of its previous arrogance, attempting to justify his illegal presence within the demon queen’s territory.

The fear of being punished right then and there was forcing them to speak hastily in the face of the pressure of her aura.

”Do you seriously plan to continue with that lie?” Ophelia asked with a serious tone that accepted no more excuses.

She adjusted the strands of hair floating all around her, looking at the invaders with utter contempt.

”I was planning to let you live if you told me the truth, perhaps. But it doesn’t matter anymore.”

”Hey hey, wait a second, that is the truth, do you plan to make an enemy out of Lord Lucerys?” the thinnest demon said trying to move.

The metal of the shackles creaked loudly, but the chains efficiently prevented him from advancing a single centimeter forward. Desperation was reflected in his pupils upon seeing the demon queen raise her free hand toward them.

”Shit, what I told you is the truth, Luciela, we were chasing Luciela...”

Ophelia ignored them completely, closing her ears to the laments and screams of the underground prisoners. She slowly turned toward Ryan, changing her hard expression for a grimace that attempted to recover the lightness from before.

”So are you going to do it?” she asked, smiling flirtatiously, but her smile expressed a subtle anger that she hadn’t managed to dissipate from her face.

”Yeah, yeah.” Ryan said monotonously, yielding to the woman’s whim in order to accelerate the end of the mission.

He placed his right hand in front of his chest and began to conjure his support buffs directly upon her.

”Almighty”

”Physical Enhancement”

”Magical Enhancement”

Ophelia’s entire body lit up for an instant with a purple and red flash that adhered to her skin. She slightly raised her hands to shoulder height, opening and closing her fingers to feel the change in her base stats.

She observed with great surprise how Ryan’s energy increased her own native abilities to levels she didn’t expect.

”How interesting this is, ha, ha, ha,” she laughed shamelessly, enjoying the overwhelming surge of power coursing through her body.

Then she slowly turned back to the two chained demons who were looking at her with evident terror.

”Hey, wait, I told you it is the truth.” The thin demon responded once again, pressing his back against the stone wall in a futile attempt to get away.

But Ophelia completely ignored his words, concentrating all of the newly acquired energy in the palm of her right hand.

”Silence, from now on I forbid you from saying a single word. Die in silence you filthy dogs,” she said extending her hand toward them with total coldness.
