Back with Stella's master, the guy absorbed another virgin man, reducing him to dust as an aura developed on the villain.

"Geez, and here I thought I'd find myself with mostly female virgins, but every virgin I've found has been a guy so far!" the man scoffed. "I bet they're gamers, nerds, or even youtubers. Why else would they still possess the purity of a virgin?"

"Maybe because they don't want to get down and dirty?"

The man looked up to see Luna floating down towards him, sporting a stern expression as he chuckled:

"Ah, a Protagonist finally arrives. I understand that the entire idea is that you only show up after I start causing trouble, but you sure took your sweet time to get here, don't you think?"

Luna glared at the man silently, prompting him to pocket his hands.

"Very well. Have it your way."

Without realising it, the man vanished from her field of view, with Luna looking for him before he materialized right in front of her, grabbing and lifting the superhero by the throat.

"I may get in trouble for hurting a Protagonist, but oh well, once I have enough power that won't be an issue!"

So he began absorbing Luna like everybody else... before the skin on his hand began to melt, causing him to recoil and release the superhero, who kicked him hard enough to send him flying several feet away.

"You're not a virgin?!" the villain snapped. "But you're a teenager!"

"I'm also a Protagonist, who wields the Cliche of Superhero," Luna added. "And my job is to stop you before you absorb more innocent virgins who have nothing to do with this nonsense!"

"But how?! No teenager I've met has ever managed to pop their cherries before they turn into adults! Not unless..."

The man narrowed his eyes. "Who took your first time?"

Luna cracked her knuckles while glaring at the Antagonist, prompting him to dash towards her, shouting:

"Tell me you son of a bitch!"


"Listen, I know this sounds really risky, and I'm disgusted by it too," Stella clenched her fists as Lincoln and Cristina stared at her. "But as long as the one fighting against my master is a virgin, defeat is all but guaranteed! In order to fight them on equal footing, you must become a man and a woman, right now!"

"There's no way in heck that we're gonna do... that!" Lincoln yelled back. "We're just kids! Teenagers, such, but still minors! We can't face the potential consequences of doing it!"

"Look, it's either those consequences, or straight up death!" Stella snapped. "Pick your poison, and here's a hint; one of them won't kill you!"

"You don't know that!"

"Hey?"

The duo stopped yelling and noticed they were still in hiding, so they adopted a whispering tone of voice as Cristina continued:

"Well, there's a way to make this work and make sure that the... what are you again?"

"Demon Girl," Stella answered.

"Right, Demon Girl, there's a way you can help us," Cristina raised her index finger. "If your master can absorb virgins for a power boost, and you're a virgin and you think Lincoln can help me not be a virgin to mess him up... couldn't he make you not-a-virgin either so you can fight him too?"

The duo stared at Cristina for a moment, until Lincoln eventually took a deep breath and sighed:

"Listen... Stella, right? I'm sorry, but I refuse to do something like that, even if it might get me and Cristina killed, I just... I can't do it..."

Stella stared at Lincoln for a moment, taking a deep breath as she processed his words... and then, without warning, she stated with an echoing voice:

"Listen here, you two."

Lincoln and Cristina winced as their eyes began to glow purple, their movements becoming stiff and robotic as the demon girl continued:

"This Antagonist has the power to absorb a virgin to boost his own power, and he will not stop at anybody, child, teenager, adult, male, female, in order to get stronger. He won't stop at you either: he'll hunt down your family, your friends, or your other significant ones! So this is what you're going to do: you're going to pork, outright. You'll get naked, you'll get down and dirty with one another, and you won't stop until both of you have been completely deflored, have I been understood?"

The duo silently nodded.

"Then get right to it."

And so, the duo began to prepare to do the thing, while Stella turned back from them and walked away, taking a deep breath while rubbing her forehead and trying to hold back her anger at the situation...


Back at the present, everybody stared at Stella in shock and disbelief, the Demon Lord looking at the floor as she felt their intense glares pierce her, and a few of the sisters walking towards Lincoln and Cristina in sympathy.

"So, wait a minute..." Lori narrowed her eyes. "You brainwashed our brother to do that with Cristina? Despite the fact that they were still too young to do it?!"

Stella paused, then stretched before walking to the door. "I'll see myself out."

"What, just like that? You think you can just leave after telling us of the abominable thing that you did?!" Lori snapped. "You're not even literally gonna explain yourself? Try to justify why you'd do something so-?!"

Stella rolled her eyes. "Oh please, Lori, we both know that's not what you want, isn't it?"

The oldest Loud sister took a step back as the Demon Lord continued:

"You think this is the first time I deal with this? The glares, the distrust, the piercing aura that after what I did, you see me as nothing but an inhuman creature? Please, I used to be an Antagonist: stuff like that was a daily occurrence, even from my fellow partners-in-crime. But then again, what would you know, right? Protagonist, Neutral, Outside, whatever you are, you prefer to simply look at the surface and ignore everything else, in order to point fingers at me and call me the worst thing ever, because that's the only thing an Antagonist can be."

Lori paused, then narrowed her eyes. "What you did was unforgivable-"

"I KNOW THAT! SO DOES LINCOLN, AND CRISTINA, AND THE REST OF THE FORMER ANTAGONISTS!" Stella snapped, before taking a deep breath and calming down. "I'll walk out the door, I'll go back home, I'll never set foot here again, and I'll never speak to Lincoln again. That's what you want, and what Lincoln "needs", and nothing I do is going to change your opinion, so why bother trying to justify myself? So you can boost your own ego by tearing apart my defense and making me fell worse than I already do?"

Lori clenched her fists, glaring down at the Demon Lord as she stated, with no fear in her voice:

"Don't make me laugh."

And so, Stella opened the door, left the house, and left Lincoln, Cristina, and Luna all alone to deal with the shocked sisters, all while Stella pocketed her hands and walked away while looking at the ground.

"Oof, looks like you went through something rough."

The Demon Lord stopped and looked up to see a certain Bad Omen user looking down at her, sporting her usual smile.

"I'm not in the mood for another riddle or vague warnings of what's to come, Sam," Stella growled as she walked past the seer. "Either be straight with me or leave me alone."

"How do you expect me to be straight with you if we're both girls?" Sam quipped. "That's pretty gay if you ask me; and I'm gay enough as it is."

Stella growled and rolled her eyes while Sam chuckled and put her hands on her hips.

"Okay, fine, I'm sorry for being so jokey, but truth be told, I'm in a pretty good mood," Sam sighed. "Especially since both our actions have changed the course of the future. We might actually be able to get some spoils as a result."

Stella immediately stopped, and her eyes widened as she realized the implication.

"Sam, what did you do?"

The seer paused, and turned to face Stella, their hair blowing in the wind as Stella faced her and glared at her.

"Sam. What. Did. You. Do?!"

Sam stopped, then flashed a devious smirk as she looked at Stella with glowing eyes...
