Under the leadership of one of the Abyss Creators, the Jade Bone Demon Velouria, the Abyss Demonic Insects were finally chased out of Andorra Town by the Skeletons. The Skeletons then left for the Rofsky Camp located near the gates of Angus City.
Once Andorra Town was successfully taken over, the Abyss Demonic Insects that were battling at Angus City were forced to retreat. The Abyss Mechanical Demons quickly took advantage of the situation and moved into Andorra Town to reconvene with the Skeletons that were led by the Jade Bone Demon Velouria.
This time, Bella did not lose any airships from her fleet. Her only losses were only a few hundred Skeleton artillery soldiers. These numbers meant nothing to the Jade Bone Demon Velouria as she swiftly provided Bella with the necessary “backup”.
It seemed like the infiltration and rescue mission could not be done in secret anymore. The Insect Empress Vicky Hill had already been alarmed by the battle in Andorra Town. Now, she had assembled all the Abyss Demonic Insects under her command within the vicinity of Angus City.
Bella’s United Airship Fleet only had enough firepower left to fight the battle at Angus City. As for the defensive battle at Rofsky Camp, she could only depend on the assistance of the Jade Bone Demon Velouria, the Mechanical Empress Andulisna, and their Abyss Demonic Beings.
Bella had invited the two Abyss Creators onto her fleet’s flagship, the “Sky Ark”, as guests. At the moment, they were inside the conference hall discussing their next course of action.
Lisha and Kriss sat on Bella’s left and right respectively. Having two Dark Saviors by her side was just a precautionary measure. There was still an air of uncertainty surrounding the Abyss creators and it was better to err on the side of caution.
Velouria and Andulisna smiled stiffly at each other, the tension palpable in the air. These two Abyss Creators had fought against each other before. To be exact, the Jade Bone Demon Velouria had individually challenged the top ten Abyss Creators to battles and had lost once, had six victories, and ended up with three tied battles. Judging by Andulisna’s strained expression, it was obvious that she had been one of the six who lost. It was actually rather impressive as to how she maintained her composure instead of flaring up when she saw Velouria.
“Velouria, you... Why are you here? I was the one who answered the request... you’re stealing business away from me...”
“Stealing your business? Please, you’re barely even a match for me. I’m taking this mission for sure. You can take your little mechanical pets away. I will be responsible for this. Vicky Hill’s combat abilities are about the same standard as yours, neither of you will be able to beat me in a fight. I’m the only one needed here...”
“Velouria, you... you’re being dishonest... how despicable. I... I have an official contract. You cannot chase me away like this...”
“Well, I can make another contract right now. Your reward is way too low. One month as a servant is nothing. I’m willing to be a lifelong follower...”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn the face of Velouria’s “evil competition”, the Mechanical Empress Andulisna was so angry that she was on the brink of tears. Velouria was picking on her on purpose! Throughout history, there has never been a known case of any Abyss Creators acknowledging a World Destructor Demon God or Evil God as their lifelong master. The only one who could think of something like that would be the nomadic and unorthodox Velouria.
Bella sat calmly as she continued to sip her tea. Every once in a while, she would look up at the usually composed Mechanical Empress Andulisna who was so enraged that she was in tears. This was a rare sight to enjoy. Kriss stood behind Bella, gently massaging her shoulders while Lisha served her some tea. Regarding the argument between the two Abyss Creators, they had chosen to go with Bella’s decision, whatever it would be.
This was the “Sky Ark”, the flagship of the fleet of airships. Any girl who came onboard would have to be completely naked. Although Velouria and Andulisna were Abyss Creators, they were no exception to the rule. Velouria did not even hesitate before taking off all her clothes. On the other hand, Andulisna had paused for a moment before Velouria shot her a warning look. She sighed and reluctantly took off her clothes.
When they arrived, Andulisna had already transformed into a different body. Other than a single mechanical eye, the other mechanical prosthetics had been turned into regular limbs. At the moment, Andulisna had her knees pulled up to her chest, blocking the glorious view. Her arms were crossed as she placed them on her knees and rested her round chin on her arms. She was the image of a vulnerable pigtailed beauty with two-toned hair.
Compared to Andulisna, Velouria was much more open. Her hands hung casually beside her as she sat with her legs in a “W-sit”. Her chest was much more voluptuous than Andulisna. Velouria had a completely different figure and each of them gave off a different vibe.
Bella placed two cups of tea in front of the Abyss Creators. In her heart, she was extremely tempted to say something extremely cheesy, a classic harem declaration from her previous world like “you are both my wings”. However, this was not the time to say anything like this.
Still feeling slightly resentful, Andulisna took the cup of tea as she grumbled silently to herself. When did this Sacred Demon God Samantha become so scheming? The Sacred Demon Gods in the past used to be so innocent. Although Bella did not obviously show it, the only reason why she had allowed Velouria to join in part way was to force Andulisna into increasing her reward.
Could it be that one month of servitude is not enough to satisfy her? Andulisna was deep in thought as she drank her tea. Did she look for the wrong partner this time? The danger that surrounded this partnership had already far exceeded her expectations.
“Sa... Miss Bella, you should know that there are many other missions waiting for me. However, for your sake, I will work together with Andulisna. On one condition, I want to be the overall commander of the demonic allied army. She will be my deputy instead...”
“What... I ref...”
“If you do not agree... I will beat you up on Vicky Hill’s behalf. Your decision, friends or enemies...”
Left with no other choice, Andulisna nodded reluctantly and sulked into her cup of tea. By the looks of it, this was the best possible way. Bella did not object to this at all. Since her silence implied agreement, the other Abyss Creators would not have anything to say about it. As long as the World Destroyer Demon God did not interfere and an agreement was made, the other Abyss Creators would not question the decision at all.
Bella was secretly thrilled as she watched the Mechanical Empress Andulisna slowly fell into her “trap”. Even though that silly girl was an Abyss Creator, she was still a beautiful young maiden and Bella would not let this opportunity go that easily.
ã??
Andulisna and Velouria, who had temporarily reached an agreement, continued to catch up with each other inside the conference room. As they were both Abyss Creators, they had many common topics to talk about. Bella had asked Lisha and Kriss to remain behind with Andulisna and Velouria. If their chat were to turn out badly, the two girls would be able to stop it in time.
Currently, the region of Andorra Town was under the combined control of the Abyss Mechanical Demonic Beings and Skeletons. The streets were filled with various Skeletons, including members of the Skeleton Infantry, Skeleton Knights, and White Bone Demon Knights. There were also many other metal type Mechanical Demonic Beings within the crowd as well. Bella was rather calm as this was not the first time she witnessed such a clash between the Dark types and Mechanical types.
Previously, Bella got to witness the Mechanical Creator Andrea’s group of Giant Mechs battle against biological zombies in a small town in this Other World that looked like it was a scene straight out of a western. By now, she was already used to sights like this.
The moment the “Sky Ark” landed, a group of demonic beings immediately assembled as her guard. This group consisted of some Abyss Skeletal Generals that were three meters tall and some Abyss Elite Aliens. Since Bella had already entered into a contract with Andulisna and Velouria, to the demonic beings, she had also become their mistress.
With a row of Abyss Demonic Generals behind her and a team of Abyss Elite Aliens paving the way for Bella in front, it was an imposing sight to behold. It looked as though she was the master of the Abyss, and was patrolling her city. If only she was dressed for the part. Right now, she was wearing a pair of casual high heels and her body was wrapped up in a large, black towel, and nothing else.
If not for the fact that she wanted to cover the creamy white skin on her back, Bella would not even wear a black cloak at all. She had a black demonic dragon cloak draped over her shoulders with nine black dragons embroidered on it that represented her status as a Demon King. Without her crown, Bella looked like a princess of a demon world or a young mistress from a distinguished family, instead of an entity like a Demon King.
Most of the Abyss Demonic Insect corpses left behind on the roads were Crypt Insects and large numbers of Abyss Aliens were currently feeding on them. This type of ultra-dimensional images of combat always gave Bella a strange feeling of two actors walking into the wrong scene and giving a ridiculous performance.
Bella finally arrived at the remnants of the destroyed nest. That unfortunate nest had been destroyed within mere moments of a successful evolution. The nest’s combined consciousness had been suppressed and killed by the necklace left behind by the nameless Creator God. If it had developed human-like facial features, Bella’s surprise attack would not have been enough to kill it.
Near the nest, the few hundred girls who had been held captive were individually being transferred into ventilated wooden crates. Their ears had been stuffed with soft pieces of cotton. Right now, other than the things that they could smell, these girls knew nothing of their surroundings.
The restraints on their bodies had not been removed either. The Skeleton soldiers cleaned them with fresh water and pushed the girl into the wooden crate. Most of the girls shook their heads helplessly as they were forced into the crates. Initially, when they heard Bella’s feminine voice, the girls thought that they were saved. However, they did not expect that the imperial soldiers who were saving them had been mercenaries with bad military records.
Those mercenaries would basically have their way with the female slaves that they had captured in battle before selling them off to evil organisations like the Human race’s largest underground slave traders, the Horrorshow Group. In turn, the Horrorshow Group would sell them to the highest bidder. Since these girls were technically considered first-hand goods, they would fetch a good price. Many of the girls had tried to struggle in order to prevent themselves from being placed inside the crates. Using those methods, they had hoped to anger the other party so much that the enemy would kill them instead. Death would be a much better fate than being sold off like that.
Unfortunately for them, the Skeleton soldiers had no feelings. They only knew how to mechanically complete their task. For those girls who refused to follow instructions, the Skeleton soldiers used strips of white silk to bind their legs together before carrying them directly into the wooden crates. Since resistance was futile, most of the girls gave in and allowed the Skeleton soldiers to manipulate their bodies. In their hopelessness, none of them realized that the ones who were moving their bodies were not human soldiers, but were Skeletal demonic beings.
To prevent the girls from being more frightened than they already were, the Skeleton soldiers here all wore gloves that disguised their hands and made it feel human-like. Bella had lost many Skeleton infantry soldiers in her attempt to save the girls. It would not be too much of a request to use the girls’ bodies as a reward for her troubles. The one who truly needed them was not Bella at all – it was the thirsty homosexual succubi that were under the Succubus Queen Aisha’s command. The succubi were currently worried about not having any girls for them to play with.
Once these girls were secure inside their crates, they would be secretly sent to the Hausmann Hotel to be trained by the Succubus Queen Aisha and her underlings. They would be released when they were truly on their side. Queen Aisha was still feeling rather troubled that they had no one to test the new toys that she had invented!
Bella was setting up for the battle of the Twelve Ivies. Although it could only commence after the end of the current competition within the academies, she was making the necessary preparations in advance. These female students belonged to the other academies that were not within the twelve academies, but they would still be invited to observe the battle as spectators. After all, it would probably be a good idea to turn them into her eyes and ears to gather more information.
Bella walked over to two of the more beautiful girls within the group, reached out and pinched the sensitive nubs on their chests. She let out a sigh of relief as she watched the girls turn beet red. Onboard the “Sky Ark” earlier, she could only salivate over the eye candy that was Andulisna and Velouria’s gorgeous bodies. As Lisha and Kriss were present, it did not seem appropriate to be too handsy with them. Right now, this was the perfect opportunity to satiate her “appetite”. By the time the Succubi were through with them, they would not react in this inexperienced manner anymore.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSuddenly, the Abyss Elite Aliens who were acting as Bella’s guards spread out and sprang into action. A few assassins who had been in stealth mode were immediately noticed and pinned to the ground. Before Bella could stop them, the Abyss Elite Aliens had bitten off the assassins’ heads.
However, based on the pigmentation and discoloration on their bodies, those assassins had been dead for quite some time. Their corpses were simply reanimated. As Bella approached the corpses to take a closer look, an enormous magical icicle flew towards her back. The Abyss Skeletal General that was closest to her swiftly stood in its way and barely managed to black that magical sneak attack.
“How dare you sneak an attack on me?! Come out...”
A black energy sword appeared in Bella’s right hand and she threw in the direction that the icicle had come from. The sword hit the ground at an angle and instantly filled the earth with a black magical lightning. The attacker’s magic was destroyed and they were now forced to reveal their presence.
Less than one hundred meters away, a beautiful maiden mage sat crumpled in a heap on the ground. Her face was grimy and covered in dust and her white mage’s robe was torn and damaged in various spots. Bella spotted the Olsylvia Academy’s school badge and its magical faculty’s insignia almost immediately. Despite being covered in dust, it was still easy enough to identify.
Based on the information provided by the Imperial Duke Anderson, Bella managed to piece it all together to identify this beautiful mage. This was the Imperial Duke’s daughter, who was one of the Olsylvia Academy’s magical faculty’s “Eight Chapters” – the “Invisible Seventh Chapter”, Anna Rosa. She was well versed in invisibility magic and had some basic knowledge of other types of magic as well, such as that giant icicle that was used to attack Bella.
Bella could sort of understand why that stunning senior with pure white hair would choose to attack her like that. Anna Rosa’s moon-white eyes were filled with terror and anxiety. Bella was surrounded by countless Abyss Demonic Beings and they were all being exceptionally respectful toward her. There had been no doubt in her mind that Bella was in cahoots with the demonic beings.
Furthermore, she had also seen how Bella had been taking advantage of those pretty girls. Anna Rosa was convinced that there was a problem with this heroic Grand Duchess who had recently emerged from the Human continent’s southern region. She was definitely not a good person.
By now, Anna Rosa did not have any strength left in her to escape. Using her invisibility magic, she infiltrated the Rofsky Camp just outside Angus City with Princess Eveny. However, they were caught by the Abyss Demonic Insects. To cover Anna Rosa’s retreat, the more powerful Princess Eveny covered her back and ordered her to run.
“Senior Anna Rosa, how could you attack your junior like this! That was not very nice of you.”
“Duchess Bellina, you’re in cahoots with the demonic beings... I... Wait, don’t come any closer...”
The Abyss Demonic Beings could tell Bella was getting a little unhappy and a handful of Abyss Elite Aliens began to close in on Anna Rosa. All they needed was one look from Bella and that poor beautiful maiden would disappear from this world by being torn to shreds. Bella was actually a little annoyed at being attacked from behind. If not for the fact that her assailant was a gorgeous young maiden, she would have allowed the Abyss Elite Aliens to eat her.
Anna Rosa was simply putting up a strong front. The sight of the horrifying visage of the Abyss Aliens up close was definitely not for the faint-hearted. Bella was accompanied by two Skeletal Generals as she stepped in front of Anna Rosa. Her mage’s robe had been ripped in so many places that she was basically wearing shreds of cloth, leaving large patches of snow white skin exposed to the air.
Anna Rosa’s feet had obvious scars from being clamped by giant claws. She had attacked Bella as a last resort. By the looks of her, even if she did not attack her, Anna Rosa would not have walked any further. Those assassin corpses must have been after her. Unfortunately for them, they bumped into Bella and her demonic beings and met their demise instead.
“What are you looking at... I will not submit to you like they did...”
“Oh, really? Senior Anna Rosa, you have already discovered my secret. However, I do not wish to silence you permanently either. Come with me, I think we need to have a good discussion to reach a solution that would satisfy the both of us.”
“Stop... I refuse... Are you listening to me? Put me down!”
With minimal effort, Bella picked Anna Rosa up and cradled her in her arms. As Anna Rosa was too severely injured, she could not physically struggle and could only put up a verbal resistance.
