At the combat arena in the center of Rofsky Camp, the first line of defense outside Angus City, Bella was in a standoff with the Dark Faust. As a Demon God, she yearned for her own followers, albeit a fake one. Similarly, the “Dark Faust” was recruiting suitable followers as well.
When Bella was not in her original form, other than a selected few, most entities would only be able to tell that she was a Demon King. No one would ever expect that she was a Demon God in disguise. The Fifth Blood Demon God Claire and the Tenth Dark Demon God Alice did not even see through Bella’s disguise, let alone the Dark Faust, who was clearly less powerful!
“Female clothes... I don’t... you, why must you insist on female clothing? What’s wrong with male clothes?”
“No way... Since you don’t have any female clothes, forget it. I know that the Blood Demon God Claire and the Dark Demon God Alice have appeared in this world. I’ll look for them instead.”
The Dark Faust truly did not have any female clothes on her. She had wanted to be unconventional and wore men’s clothes on purpose. Her surrogate puppets were all male as well.
She had planned on collecting a human princess with dark talents as her new surrogate puppet. However, Bella had unintentionally foiled her scheme. What other choice did she have? She did not manage to capture Princess Effie. She was desperate!
“Wait... although I may not be on par... I’m just a little less powerful than the other two Demon Gods, and I’m quite skilled. Don’t underestimate me!”
“Why don’t we do this, let’s pit our skills against each other. If you can get me to drop my weapon, you win. If you win, I won’t care if you want me to be in female or male clothes. However, you have to acknowledge that I am a Demon God.”
“Fine, I will accept your suggestion.”
This was Bella’s first time witnessing how an entity at a Demon God’s level would attack, a perfect opportunity to learn something new. The Dark Faust did not know how to transform into her Demon God’s form, so she had put all her energy into maintaining her humanoid form instead. This was the main reason she had not been accepted by the World Destructor Camp as a Demon God. Based on the common knowledge of the World Destructor Camp, she could barely compare to a Demon King without a Demon God’s form.
When Bella entered the arena, she realized that she had been tricked. The Dark Faust’s sword was similar to Bella’s Demon God’s Claw. Her right hand had morphed into the shape of a black-colored energy sword. How in the world was she going to get the Dark Faust to lose her weapon? There was no other way unless she chopped off the Dark Faust’s entire arm.
The most despicable thing was that both of the Dark Faust’s arms had morphed into swords. According to their agreement, if Bella wanted to win, she would have to destroy both her arms. As the Dark Faust’s main profession was a swordswoman, many dark energy swords had already materialized behind her.
“What a cheat! I’m not doing this. I take it back...”
“This... you... how could you do this? This is infuriating. I’m going to teach you a lesson!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGracefully, Bella jumped off the combat arena. The Dark Faust did not expect her to see through her trap so quickly. In her panic, she immediately initiated her assault. The Dark Faust moved so fast that Bella barely followed her movements. Instinctively, Bella materialized a dark energy sword in her hands and raised it up in a horizontal block in defense.
In one swift movement of her arms, the Dark Faust’s “Dark Cross” attack landed on Bella’s dark energy sword. The impact was so strong, she was sent flying a few meters back, her face showing the obvious strain. The difference between their powers was too much for the combat abilities of a Demon King, even though the opponent was just an unofficial Demon God.
“Come on! You are pretty strong, aren’t you? Well, can you take this?”
The swords floating behind the Dark Faust turned into a torrential rain as they shot towards Bella. This was one of the Dark Faust’s specialty moves, the “Dark Stars”. It would send out thousands of dark energy swords towards the enemy in a split second. Most defensive barriers would not be able to withstand the torrential barrage of strikes.
Exhausted, Bella rolled away, barely missing the Dark Faust’s attack. Her combat style was quite similar to Kriss’s dark form, the Myriad Sword Demon Krysan; both of them had a preference for fast-paced attacks. Since Bella was not able to keep up with her, she had no choice but to physically avoid the attacks that flew her way.
Although Bella had managed to roll away in time and avoided the worst of the attack, parts of her armor had been cut open by the dark energy swords. Right now, it looked as though her clothes had been torn apart. If the Dark Faust were to be this aggressive again, Bella would have to seriously consider using her Demon God’s powers to retaliate.
“You avoided it! Interesting... I...”
The Dark Faust suddenly shot up into the skies. Dozens of white bone spears appeared right where she had been standing. Bella looked up and saw a black swarm of Abyss Demonic Skeletons filling the skies. Adding on to that, White Bone Dragon Knights and White Bone Griffins could be seen everywhere. Leading them was one of the Abyss Creators, the Jade Bone Demon Velouria.
Velouria had already switched to battle mode, with twelve pairs of White Bone Wings on her back. These skeletal wings could extend indefinitely and could be used as twelve pairs of skeletal tentacles as well. The Abyss Demonic Coalition at Andorra Town had begun its offensive on Rofsky Camp, which was part of Angus City’s external defenses.
Once Bella knew that the Abyss Demonic Insects had hidden inside Angus City and had not emerged, she immediately notified the commanders of the Abyss Demonic Coalition, the two Abyss Creators. The magically communicated message informed them that they could attack Angus City however they liked, except for the central hotel. Since Princess Eveny was not around, there was no chance of accidentally injuring her.
“You should go. We shall resume this bet when the opportunity presents itself again. I will hold them off!”
As the Dark Faust did not know the truth, she continued to launch attacks at the Jade Bone Demon Velouria while she urged Bella to leave as quickly as she could. Skipping the formalities of casual conversation, the two high-level entities began to fight a battle in the skies.
Those stationed at Rofsky Camp were mostly Human Imperial Guards and mercenaries who were being controlled. The rest were the Dark Goblin warriors under the Dark Faust’s command. Without the Abyss Demonic Insects as support, there was no way they could withstand a combined attack by the Abyss Mechanical Demons and the Abyss Skeletons.
Rofsky Camp’s sturdy front gates were knocked down almost immediately, and hordes of Abyss Mechanical Demons flooded inside. Bella’s own abyss demonic beings were the ones responsible for the attack. Furthermore, her United Airship Fleet was waiting outside as reinforcements for the perfect opportunity to attack.
The Dark Faust’s resources were so little that it actually evoked pity. Without the recognition of the World Destructor’s Camp, she could only summon so many abyss demonic beings. At the moment, her abilities were limited to summoning entities with barely any combat capabilities, such as the Dark Goblins.
The Abyss Demonic Insects were all under the Insect Empress Vicky Hill’s personal command. Both of them merely had a professional working relationship, and nothing personal was going on between the two. This meant that the Dark Faust did not have any power over those Abyss Demonic Insects at all.
Bella decided to ignore the ongoing battle and rushed back to the winehouse to meet with Kriss and Lisha. Based on the Dark Faust’s abilities, the Jade Bone Demon Velouria would not be able to take her down quickly. It would take some time before the victor of this battle was revealed.
The moment Bella walked into the winehouse, she was met with the sight of Kriss having the time of her life. She had an evil smile on her face as she brandished a whip in her hands and played with the beautiful female prisoners. Those golden-haired pretty maidens had been whipped until their faces were flushed red. The floor was also covered in strange wet stains.
This was the first time Bella had seen Kriss’s dominatrix side. For a moment, Bella could not wrap her head around the extreme difference, and she stood there, speechless. As a woman herself, Kriss understood her kind very well. Compared to the Dark Goblins, she had a far more expert grasp of their bodies’ sensitive points. Under her purposeful teasing, the female prisoners had no choice but to give in to the pleasure and allow Princess Kriss to bring them over the edge of ecstasy.
Bella did not interrupt Kriss, who was currently reveling in the throes of passion. Looking at the partially liquified corpse of General Newman pinned to the wall by the Holy Sword, she knew that Kriss had already completed her assigned mission.
Bella walked over to the entrance of the winehouse’s cellar. Through the crack in the door, she silently observed the erotic images within the dimly lit place, which featured her younger sister, Lisha.
Lisha had already transformed into the Demonic Dragon Emperor Alisha. It did not matter who they were or what profession they belonged to. Every single one of the imprisoned beauties straddled a thick piece of rope. Lisha stood behind those girls, supervising them as they walked along the length of the rope. Anyone she deemed walking too slow would be spanked on their sensitive spots with Alisha’s dragon claw.
The friction from moving along the thick, rough ropes caused the female prisoners to make all sorts of weird noises. Most of them were already lying immobile on the ground from exhaustion. Only a few stronger ones remained standing. However, they were nearly at their limit. It was only a matter of time before they succumbed and met the same fate as their companions.
Just like Kriss earlier on, Bella did not interrupt the Demonic Dragon Emperor Alisha either. Since Alisha had made a personal appearance, there was no doubt that the Mercenary King Sam had been killed many times over. She decided to leave those female prisoners for the Demonic Dragon Emperor Alisha’s enjoyment.
Unwilling to disturb Princess Kriss and the Demonic Dragon Emperor Alisha while they were indulging in their unique pleasures, Bella left the only winehouse inside Rofsky Camp without making a single sound.
Before she departed, Bella sent a message to the two Abyss Creators who were on her side, the Mechanical Empress Andulisna and the Jade Bone Demon Velouria. She informed them not to interfere with anything that went on in this winehouse anymore. Her United Airship Fleet would take care of the matters here.
When she returned to the center of Rofsky Camp, Bella witnessed the Dark Faust’s moment of defeat. The Dark Faust and Jade Bone Demon Velouria moved so swiftly that the two were blurred figures in the sky. The Dark Faust was covered in wounds, and her black cloak had been ripped in various places by her opponent’s skeletal wings.
Compared to the Dark Faust, Verlouria’s injuries seemed to be more grave. The twelve pairs of White Bone Wings on her back were all broken, and she had injuries all over her body, caused by dark energy.
The Dark Faust was initially about to win. However, in a moment of carelessness, she suffered a debilitating blow from the Mechanical Empress Andulisna, who had fired her super-effective light cannons from a hidden corner.
A powerful beam of dark blue light shot towards the Dark Faust. This was the fatal blow, and Andulisna had put all her energy into it. It was so powerful, the Dark Faust did not dare to face it head-on. Instead, she moved her head, narrowly avoiding getting hit in the face.
However, her body was not as lucky. Half of her body got hit by the dark blue light and had melted away. The other Abyss Skeletons and Abyss Mechanical Demons made use of this window to join forces, launching a combined attack on the Dark Faust. All sorts of energy collided with her body and caused a massive explosion.
The Dark Faust began to fall from the sky like a kite cut from its string. Before she crashed onto the ground, however, she managed to make one final ultimate blow. She used her “Dark Beam” and shot the last of the approaching abyss demonic beings.
She had done everything she could as she was severely outnumbered. The Dark Faust managed to injure two Abyss Creators, as well as their hordes of demonic beings from the Abyss Demonic Coalition. Furthermore, she was unable to transform into her Demon God’s form and could only fight in her humanoid body. She had already reached her limit.
The Dark Faust had landed directly in front of Bella. By the time Bella walked over to her, half of the body that was destroyed earlier had regenerated, revealing a large patch of creamy white skin. At that moment, though, Bella did not have any evil thoughts at all. She picked her up and made her way further into the Rofsky camp, moving in the direction of Angus City.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe Dark Faust’s hands had transformed back into their regular shapes, allowing Bella to carry her on her back with ease. She could feel the soft chest pressing against her back. This little lass was definitely a girl, and she definitely had an ample bosom.
Bella was relieved. If the Dark Faust had turned out to be a male, there was a definite possibility that she would have killed her right there and then. She had thought about taking advantage of the situation, but she needed the Dark Faust for her covert investigation plan later on. Bella had no choice but to resist her urges and place the strange thoughts about the other girl on hold for now.
“It’s you... Seriously, I really did not want you to see me in such a pathetic state...”
“Stop talking. We should retreat to Angus City as quickly as possible!”
“Cough cough... Don’t use the main gates. Listen to me...”
Bella and the Dark Faust managed to escape successfully. As for the Abyss Creators, the Jade Bone Demon Velouria was seriously injured and could not chase them even if she wanted to. On the other hand, the Mechanical Empress had overexerted herself and depleted most of her energy. Furthermore, she was hit by the backlash from the dark energy that rebounded off the Dark Faust. Right now, she was grievously wounded as well, just like Velouria.
After the Abyss Demonic Coalition gained control of Rofsky Camp without much effort, they did not proceed any further. Angus City was surrounded by a sturdy magical barrier that the abyss demonic beings could not break through. They had no choice but to regroup inside Rofsky Camp and wait for the Abyss Creators, the Mechanical Empress Andulisna and the Jade Bone Demon Velouria, to recuperate from their injuries. Once they fully recovered, they would then plan the coalition’s next course of action.
The human guards and mercenaries inside Rofsky Camp that were under the Spiritual Insects’ control had all been destroyed by the Abyss Mechanical Demons. They were already dead, and the Spiritual Insects were simply controlling their corpses.
Spiritual Insects had the unlimited ability to infect living humans. If they were not properly taken care of and those “fake humans” escaped the camp, coming into contact with regular humans would cause the situation to spiral out of control.
The once-bustling Angus City had now turned into a ghost town. The view of the city that Bella had seen through the telescope on her United Airship Fleet was all an illusion. Those so-called humans were the same as the ones inside Rofsky Camp: puppets manipulated by the Spiritual Insects.
Bella carried the Dark Faust and snuck into Angus City through a secret entrance along the city walls. Soon after, she grimaced, feeling a little uncomfortable. Bella could feel traces of a Creator God’s aura on the defense barrier erected around Angus Cityâ??the same one that was left on the necklace that acted as a seal on the Jade Bone Demon Velouria’s body. There was a possibility that they were the work of the same Creator God.
“You should not be here at all. The Insect Empress Vicky Hill has constantly been targeting the World Destructor Camp. I had caused too much of a commotion when I was seriously injured by two Abyss Creators. She would have known by now...”
Through the Dark Faust’s stilted explanations, Bella finally understood her relationship with the Insect Empress Vicky Hill; they were merely partners. The Dark Faust wanted to successfully invade a dimension and use that achievement to gain the recognition of the World Destructor Camp. However, afraid that she was not powerful enough, she decided to work with the Insect Empress Vicky Hill, who had a reputation as the Abyss Creator that refused to follow the rules.
The Insect Empress Vicky Hill had initially agreed to send her troops to aid the Dark Faust’s invasion plan. However, right now, it seemed like her motives were not that simple. Based on the fact that the Insect Empress Vicky Hill had gone behind the Dark Faust’s back and worked with the followers of one of the World Destructor Camp’s oldest enemiesâ??the paternal Creator Godâ??Bella definitely needed to be vigilant of her.
A City Lord’s mansion was currently suspended in the air above Angus City. After she attacked and invaded Angus City, the Insect Empress Vicky Hill hid inside the mansion to oversee and lead the entire situation.
At the moment, one of the evil masterminds, Vicky Hill, stood atop one of the pavilions somewhere within the mansion’s garden. She was observing the area surrounding Angus City, a middle-aged man standing beside her. This was the body of the Lord of Angus City, who had died in battle earlier on. It was now being possessed by some random entity. Those eyes gave off a strangely bright golden hue, unquestionably not human.
“Faust, that idiot, got severely injured in the end. I need to make sure that her lips are permanently sealed as soon as possible. Once I absorb her energy, I will have nothing to be afraid of, even if Andulisna and Velouria joined forces and attacked.”
“Vicky Hill, I do not care for your in-fighting. However, the transportation door must be secured soon. That girl will not be tricked that easily. I think I should personally take a look, in case of any trouble.”
She remained disinterested in the surrogate ambassador, though. If not for the fact that she needed to make use of his powers, she would not have bothered to work with the paternal Creator God. After all, he did not have a corporeal form yet and had to make use of a surrogate. Right now, Vicky Hill did not think that he was much of a threat at all.
