Netori: Stealing The Hero's Party!

Lilith, the parasite-infected dark elf, had made her way into Aria's room just a few moments before she was sent back there by Raven. In that time, she looked around every nook and cranny and the only thing she could find was a wrapped tome and a luminous red potion. Both items drew her like a moth, and as she held them in her hand, a voice began to whisper into her ears.

It wasn't her, but the parasite, slowly taking over her consciousness and turning her into a slave to its command.

Its words while incomprehensible made her far more risk-taking than she otherwise had been. The creature permeating her mind wanted full control of her body, and the only way it could do so was to ensure that she died as soon as possible at this point. Even the month-long wait was far too much for it, and the Capparicius Cappa didn't wanna wait that long.

And being a thief by class, Lilith was far more inclined to do anything it nudged her towards; than someone from another class would've been.

"What potion is this?" She wondered, her hands running all over the luminous glass.

The book set aside on the bed, she uncorked the top of the slim bottle and took a hint of the aromatic blood potion. Any wish, no matter how rash–it was but a breath away, however, the burden of a soul being eternally submitted to an expecting devil was far too much for Aria to use herself.

Lilith, on the other hand, had no clue what to use the potion for or what the repercussions were to drinking it, even so, the parasite kept urging her to take at least one sip even if it killed her.

"I messed up…" The voice of a girl walking towards the door forced Lilith to cork the potion and blend into the walls like a color-changing lizard. Keeping to the walls, she began moving sideways as Aria walked in through the door.

Had she been sober, she would've caught Lilith far too easily because of her training at spotting hiding horrors, but with her mind consumed with guilt and her senses failing her due to the alcohol, she didn't notice that anything was wrong, and even the fact that the tome of unholy grace laid on the bed, didn't strike her as odd at all.

Throwing herself face first on the bed, the dark elf began crying like a mix of a toddler and a loud drunk. She was obviously not in a sound state of mind, so taking advantage of the situation, Lilith managed to sneak out the door with the blood potion in her hand.

'I didn't mean to steal it but…' The power emanating from the glass was at least in her eyes proof enough of the party's strength. However, in case they reject her request for help, she wanted to hold onto the blood potion as it might help her deal with the situation herself.

"I might need to check with Drew, to see if she knows what this potion is," making a mental note to show the potion to the elven dwarf she'd been working with, Lilith quickly bagged the potion in her waist-belt's bag. "Now to the other rooms."

Turning her attention to the rest of the room, she began scanning through each one of them quickly, expecting the party to come up anytime as one of them already had. In Mel's room, all she found was a kit to make her own arrows, a dozen lingerie, and a dildo with her lover's name carved on it.

'I do not wanna touch that…' Keeping her hands off of her slimy and grimy stuff, she didn't even attempt to look at the countless cum-glazed portraits of her and Raven making love in all kinds of different positions. Some were passionate, the others more extreme with Mel hanging to the ceiling from vines and Raven using her mouth as a cum-toilet. 'Su-succubus maze?'

Reading the small print on one of the frames, Lilith realized something that made her heart race. From the look of things, it seemed that the portraits were done inside a place called 'The Succubus's Maze' and the reason behind them?

It was to sell to the women of Athenia who were left unsatisfied by their husbands, so they could flick their beans while imagining themselves as Mel from inside the portraits.

'H-humans are strange…' Reading a serial number amongst the notes, she shook her head and decided to leave, but not before another thought crossed her head. 'Well, at least they're not all rapists like us dark elves.'

Grimacing at that ugly stain of a fact, she left the fair elf's room and went inside Erika's–who was the only human through and through in the hero's party.

There, she expected the same sights, lingerie, portraits, and plenty of other objects related to sex, however to her surprise, the priestess has a clean room with nothing but robes, a copy of her goddess' gospel as well as the book of horrors inside.

Almost disappointed, she searched for a while longer, until finally, she saw a pair of a man's underwear tucked under her pillow. Having seen what unfolded on the ground floor with the owner in Raven's lap, she already knew whom the garment belonged to and why it had dried drool all over it.

Blushing red as the search continued, she couldn't help but wonder what was so special about the young mage. Sure he was handsome, and the girls around him beauties of different shapes and sizes, but for a priestess to be sniffing his underwear he had to be real damn special.

'Forget it! Forget it! Forget it!' Taking her eyes off the underwear that had been drooled on and stretched from whatever monster Raven was hiding inside it, Lilith quickly turned around and decided to take her leave.

The next and the final room before the leader of the group belonged to Amedith–someone the dark elf still believed to be a girl and more specifically a lesbian with how clingy Liliyana was towards him. To her surprise, however, while looking through his belongings she saw his sword of light resting over a pair of male pajamas.

Although the dainty size of them, made her believe that he was probably just a tomboy like her.

One thing that should've surprised her but didn't, however, was a frilly red sundress with lots of red and yellow flowers. It was in the perfect size for Amedith, and even he had no clue that the dress was there as Liliyana had bought it for him that very day. She wanted to see him in clothes that complimented his feminine appearance.

And it wasn't to humiliate him or turn him into a spectacle but to make him more comfortable in his own body.

'Finally a nice innocent couple.' Still knowing nothing of Liliyana's devious fae nature, Lilith left the room to enter the final one.

She could hear someone coming up already, so she made sure to let Amedith and Liliyana get inside their own room while she hid in plain sight as part of the hallway walls.

'Did she just?!' Seeing her from her aura alone, Liliyana's eyes looked right at Lilith. But sensing no ill intent, she simply followed Amedith as she was more excited about the dress he'd be wearing. 'She saw me, right?! How?! Cause she's a devil?!'

Liliyana's devilish nature was no secret, one look alone would give it away. But in Elenaris with so many oddities wandering the streets, the sight of a devil demi-child was nothing to be amazed about. Even so, if not before, that very nature had begun making Lilith question her abilities.

'Should I even continue?' She wondered although that question didn't last long as Liliyana showed no signs of giving her position away. 'I'll be real quick!'

Little did she know that unlike with Aria and Amedith, she wouldn't be able to escape Raven's room the whole night.
