Almaz groaned waking up to a bright light shining in his eyes. He went to move his arm to cover his eyes only to find that they were strapped down. The shock over road his grogginess as he realized he was strapped down to a table. He struggled trying to get out of his bondage only to find no hope in getting free.
"What's going on?" He asked as panic started racing through him. He could hardly see around him since the lights above him were so blinding.
"Princess, help me...," Almaz whimpered then shivered realizing that not only was he strapped down, but he was practically naked other than his boxers.
"Your 'Princess' isn't here to help you, human." Mao said as he emerged from the shadows. He appeared over Almaz with the light reflecting off his glasses. Almaz shivered as he saw the white haired demon walk into view. He had never seen a demon before, and now he was strapped down before one.
"You fell right into my lap and I'll take advantage of it." Mao grinned widely.
"You know you're in the Netherworld, right?" He asked even though it didn't matter what the human's answer was.
"Ah? O-oh, right... I came here to defeat the Overlord!" Almaz replied trying his best to sound confident. He paled seeing Mao pull on some gloves.
"Y-you aren't going to kill me are you?" The human asked feeling his insides turn at the thought of dyeing now.
"Why would I kill you yet? You're pretty fresh for experimenting on." Mao replied picking up a scapel as it glinted in the light. Almaz gulped feeling a few beads of sweat fall down his face.
"N-no, I can't die yet, I'm a hero! I'm on a quest to defeat the Overlord!" The human proclaimed as he tried to calm himself down. Mao moved closer to Almaz as his grin widened.
"A hero you say? Then this is my lucky day." The demon replied licking his lips as he felt himself start to drool. He ran his hand down Almaz's chest making the human shudder with slight fear.
"I'll find out what makes you tick, my hero!" Mao laughed as he licked the scaple in his hand. Almaz whimpered and starred up at the demon as he tried getting free from his restraints again. Mao went to move his scaple down against the human's skin only to end up freezing.
"Eh?" Almaz whimpered opening his eyes slightly after he noticed Mao wasn't cutting him. He flushed hearing the demon panting and start to drool as his glasses fogged up.
"Why should I cut you open before taking samples?" He asked wiping the drool from his mouth with the back of his hand. He moved to grab some needles and tubes along with other equipment. Almaz shuddered watching the demon getting things ready. He imagined that Mao was going to cut him into pieces and he couldn't even move to save himself. He really was horrible at being a hero if he couldn't get out of this and save the princess.
