I was thinking about whom I should choose for my trial. Lilia had said she would provide a wide selection of women, and the women in this room were not even included in that. If the ones here were already so hot, I could only imagine what the women prepared to seduce the hero would be like. I sipped my mead, turning over all the choices and possibilities in my mind.
Lilia's thick, holy body. Serena, who had come so close to touching me. And now these two maids, mother and daughter, standing there in their maid outfits, showing off their full, tempting figures. It left me torn. I was in a real dilemma.
I ate more, tasting meat from an animal whose name I could not even guess, and drank more mead with it. All the women watched as I ate. I found myself enjoying the royal treatment more than I expected. Compared to my old world, which had treated me poorly, this place felt unreal. For once, I felt grateful that I had been summoned here.
"My lord, is something troubling you?" Lilia asked, worried as she looked at me. I was lost in thought, spacing out while drinking mead.
"Yeah, I was thinking about something," I said, coming back to my senses.
"What seems to trouble you, my lord?" she said, caring. They didn't want their hero to be stressed over anything as it could lead my dick to not get erect in the trial.
"Umm, I was thinking about what you said about the selection of women," I said outright, looking around at the women in the room.
The two maids looked at me and blushed, quickly lowering their heads like they had heard something way above their level.
"What about it, my lord?" Lilia asked, concerned.
"I was wondering, am I only allowed to choose from the women you've prepared for the trial, or any women in your kingdom?" I said, looking at everyone.
Serena was blushing from our little touching and was trying to put her hand on her skirt. She was wet, I could feel. Lilia smiled a little, thinking about how I was looking at her body since I had seen her. And the maids looked at my bulge and realized what I meant by my question. Both of them rubbed their thighs together at the thought.
"Yes, my lord," Lilia said, assuring me that the final say was mine. "You can choose anyone. The selection is just to give you more options, to present women of our kingdom from every race and culture."
"Okay, and what if I choose two instead of one?" I said, sipping mead and looking at the maids lustfully.
Both of them looked at each other, not able to believe I had just said that. But I was their lord. They couldn't say no to me. They both blushed, looking down, then stealing quick looks at me.
Lilia noticed where I was looking and understood immediately. "Yes, my lord," she said. "You can choose as many as you like, whether it's two or a hundred."
What the fuck. I could have a 100-some right after arriving in this world, while back in my world I couldn't even get a single girlfriend. I almost choked on my mead.
"Anything else troubling you, my lord?" Lilia asked, being really hospitable.
"No, you cleared everything. Thanks," I said, smiling.
Now the choice was mine. Should I look at the women they had prepared, or choose from the ones standing right in front of me?
"If I may suggest, my lord, pardon my rudeness," she said, "we have a succubus with us right here who could really satisfy your needs and arouse you without limits." She gestured, and Nyx stepped forward as Lilia presented her.
So my guess was right. Nyx really was a succubus. I didn't even have to ask. Lilia confirmed it herself.
"What do you mean, arouse me without limits?" I asked. It sounded interesting.
"Nyx isn't originally from our kingdom, my lord," Lilia said. "She was brought here about ten years ago to seduce men and restore their desire, but even for someone like her, with great sexual energy, Lilith's curse was too strong. Nyx used to satisfy royals in a faraway kingdom, and we had heard many stories about her. Since then, she has stayed with us. She can bring out your sexual energy far stronger than normal."
Oh, so that's why, when I saw her down in that dungeon, my dick throbbed harder. She really did have the abilities of a succubus.
Nyx watched me like she was ready to pounce, like she wanted to take everything she'd been denied for the last twenty years. For a succubus to go without pleasure that long, I could almost feel her frustration, her need.
Her eyes were locked on my bulge with intense focus, and my dick throbbed harder, leaking even more precum. When I looked back at her, she stopped using her abilities on me, smiling like she was teasing me on purpose, fully aware of what her powers were doing.
So I had all the options. Any woman in this room or the ones prepared for me. I was lost in thought.
I stood up with the goblet of mead in my hand, took a sip, and walked to the only window in the room. I had not looked outside since I came here. Beyond the window, the world looked massive, like something from a fantasy anime. Buildings with designs that did not exist on Earth. Some had lights on, some were dark. Mountains in the distance. A wide, star-filled sky. It was beautiful. A cold breeze brushed against me.
I took another sip of mead, thinking about who I should choose.
After a while, I turned around and leaned back against the window frame, one leg crossed over the other, feeling almost royal. "Lilia, you should stay," I said, sipping my mead and looking straight into her eyes.
Lilia blushed. She clearly did not expect that choice. Out of everyone in the room, the mother, the daughter, the succubus, Serena, and all the other women waiting, I had chosen her.
She could not meet my eyes for a moment, then looked back at me. "As you wish, my lord."
She looked at the other women in the room, and they all understood my decision. One by one, they began to leave. Serena looked back at me once, maybe thinking I might have chosen her. The mother and daughter looked sad, half wanting to stay. Nyx's tail flicked as she pouted.
Soon, all of them had left the room. The door closed behind them, leaving only me and Lilia inside.
