The central area of the Aldridge Empire, the periphery of Kurus City was under siege by the abyss demons. One of the abyss demons, the Abyss Crypt Insects came through the underground waterway. Earl Kirk the Sixth, Lord of the city, made a mistake in his command when he placed over 100,000 soldiers of the Imperial Aldridge Army on the walls of Kurus City.
As the Abyss Crypt Insects from the underground waterway burrowed their way into the city, the soldiers guarding the city stood there, rooted to the spot, having been caught off guard by the abyss demons. There were mainly three kinds of abyss demons attacking Kurus City. Some emerged from the ground, like magnified versions of cockroaches that reached two meters tall when they stood upright.
There were also giant moths flying in the sky, the Abyss Poisonous Moths. They were about the same size as the demonic poison bees that Bella had faced before, and their numbers were large. Although there weren’t as many Abyss Poisonous Moths as the Abyss Blood-sucking Mosquitoes, they were enough to cover the sky. The attack method of the Abyss Poisonous Moth was similar to the Crypt Spiders. They spun silk and sprayed venom at their enemies, though the venom wasn’t as lethal as the Crypt Spiders’.
The most dangerous of them all, the Abyss Bloodthirsty Mantis, could move both in the sky and on the ground. This enlarged version of the mantis was more than five meters long with the two pairs of serrated front legs that were nearly one meter long. Their entire body was dark red and looked as if it had just crawled out of a bloody pool.
“Magic! Use fire magic! As for the others…”
“They’ve leaped over the wall.. Where’s the infantry? Quickly stop them!”
The garrison on the city walls of Kurus was mainly composed of military mages and heavy infantry. The eight-meter tall city walls they were stationed at were easily broken through by the Abyss Bloodthirsty Mantis that landed by flying. The bloodthirsty mantis brandished two pairs of terrifying serrated front legs, using them to slay the imperial army soldiers in their way. The armor of the heavy infantry was as fragile as paper before those serrated front legs. Many soldiers were sliced into pieces before they could even react.
The commander of the military mages who issued the order was mutilated and killed before his order was complete, head and body falling apart onto the ground. The Abyss Bloodthirsty Mantis was extremely fast. Many military mages thought they would be safe with the heavy infantry in front of them. However, the Abyss Bloodthirsty Mantis excelled at battle, directly attacking the back row. They quickly flew over their heads and attacked the military mages who still assumed they were safe in the back.
The military mages were about to launch a magic attack when they were blocked by the poisonous moths in the sky. Without the cover of heavy infantry, many mages were crippled before they could even open a magic barrier for defense. The battle on the city walls was completely one-sided. More than 100,000 soldiers of the Imperial Aldridge Army were beaten to a crushing defeat by the deadly poisonous moth and bloodthirsty mantis.
The situation was even worse in Kurus City. A large number of civilians were being hunted by the Abyss Crypt Insects. The streets turned red with blood, smoke rising from the small number of mutated Abyss Crypt Insects that sprayed fire.
On the sky above Kurus City, hundreds of Grim airships were slowly approaching. In the airspace near the Grim Airship Fleet, a large group of Abyss Blood-sucking Mosquitoes were nearby. Those abyss demons had yet to give up, still wanting to launch a sneak attack on the Grim Airship Fleet’s flagship, the “Sky Ark.” The other airships responsible for the escort of Sky Ark had all configured their artillery, aiming them towards the Abyss Blood-sucking Mosquitoes. If they had any intention of approaching the fleet, the artillery would immediately be fired to suppress them.
In the command cockpit of the flagship, the Sky Ark, Bella was hugging her Demon King’s personal maid, Annie from behind. Princess Annie was currently naked. Although she was the commander-in-chief of the fleet, she was also wearing a red collar like the others. Bella reached out from behind and placed one hand on Princess Annie’s chest, while the other explored the mysterious area below her navel.
“M-mistress Bella… this is the command room. Don’t… don’t do this! I… I…”
“What’s the matter, baby? Are you trying to resist me? Clearly you’re already… “
“Don’t say anything, Mistress Bella. I yield…”
Princess Annie blushed as Bella french kissed her. After the long kiss, Bella withdrew her tongue and looked at the intoxicated Princess Annie, her heart filling with pride. Princess Annie had already made out with her many times and her body recognized her touch. Even if she didn’t want to, she couldn’t control her reaction.
In this command room, there were several cat girl attendants and two fox girl dancers. The cat attendants knelt on the soft carpet, carrying tea and cakes, too afraid to look up at Bella. The cat ears on their heads were erect from the excitement. Compared with the shy cat girls, the fox dancers were much more open. They each held onto a metal pole, performing the pole dance common in the clubs of Bella’s previous world.
Although the fox girls weren’t the best at dancing, their pole dance was more tempting to Bella than the demon girls. She had seen Succubus Queen Aisha dance briefly before, and the image was really enticing. At the time, Bella was almost tempted to give the Succubus Queen an on-the-spot “punishment.” Later, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Succubus Queen Aisha was temporarily banned from pole dancing.
Through the observation telescope in the command room on the flagship Sky Ark, Bella could clearly see the situation in Kurus City. The abyss demons were frantically attacking the entire city. Aside from the strong resistance in three locations, the war situation in other areas was completely one-sided. Even Earl Kirk the Sixth’s residence was surrounded by the Abyss Crypt Insects. The crypt insects were crashing into the gates of the earl’s residence in a frenzy, almost collapsing the marble stone gates.
The resistance was led by Olsylvia Academy’s male Saviors. God Chosen Knight Scott led Lisha’s old demon-slaying team near a windmill farm outside Kurus City to defend against the abyss demons. They had just repelled the Demonic Dragon Kirkadan and withdrew to Kurus City on a high morale. Under Scott’s command, his subordinates were still fighting with the Abyss Crypt Insects.
God Chosen Holy Swordsman Akmans brought his teammates to fight against the Abyss Crypt Insects in the bustling streets of Kurus City. Many of them ended up using the knights as shields, unable to fight the Abyss Crypt Insects head-on. They had to use guerrilla warfare against the Abyss Crypt Insects.
God Chosen Mage Adelaide and a large group of mages occupied Benny Clock Tower, the tallest building in Kurus City. They were using magic to attack the deadly poisonous moth and bloodthirsty mantis flying in the sky. The poisonous moths weren’t quick enough to dodge and were shot down by their magic attacks. The Abyss Bloodthirsty Mantis basically avoided all their attacks due to its fast moving speed.
With the support of the three transmigrated Saviors, Kurus City managed to hold up against the abyss demons. However, God Chosen Knight Scott and the other Saviors were overconfident. In this sort of situation, cooperation between the Saviors would be better but they fought separately and didn’t support each other. With their strength, retreat wasn’t a problem, but keeping Kurus City was impossible.
As Bella made out with Princess Annie, she watched the war situation in the whole Kurus City. Out of the three different abyss demons, the cockroaches that acted as cannon fodder were about 100,000-strong. The number of Abyss Poisonous Moths came second, also with around 100,000 or so, while the ones with the fewest numbers were the Abyss Bloodthirsty Mantis, with around 10,000 or so at most. They were the elite force. Although their numbers were small, they were the key force in breaking through the walls of Kurus City.
Bella’s Grim Airship Fleet had more than one hundred airships, more than 50,000 skeleton soldiers, and hundreds of cannons. But even then, if they were to go to battle they would still suffer losses. These large abyss demons couldn’t be killed by firearms; the arquebus couldn’t even kill the lowest Abyss Crypt Insects; only with cannons could cause some damage to them. The arquebus and copper guns could only play a role in delaying their attacks.
Because the crypt insects were like cockroaches, Bella speculated that even those firearms from her previous couldn’t kill them, hence her hesitation. It wasn’t her intention to support Kurus City. The Grim Fleet was to fly deeper into Angus City to find out where the incident started. Losing in the start wasn’t consistent with Bella’s usual routine.
Moreover, the airspace near the Grim Airship Fleet was occupied by a large group of persistent Abyss Blood-sucking Mosquitoes. Once the troops were divided to support Kurus City, the Grim Airship Fleet was at risk of being attacked by their enemies. The flagship, Sky Ark, contained Bella’s most precious “personal property” so she couldn’t afford to fail.
“Bella, you’re here… Really, with all due respect, you’re too… Worse than any nightclub run by the dark organizations like the Horrorshow Group… Wait, I’m here to talk about business… Don’t…”
“President Dinah, you better come clean. What were you doing in those night clubs? I think I’d better check your…”
“Bella, let go… I was on a mission before. I didn’t stay for long… Please believe me, I’m all yours. Would I still…”
“Dinah, don’t ever step into that sort of place again. It’s too dangerous. If you go again, I’ll make sure to teach you a lesson.”
Dinah, the student president of the Alexis Assassins Academy had just entered the command room. After seeing Bella bullying Princess Annie, she made a few casual remarks but ended up being pulled to the nearby sofa by Bella and kissed for a long time before she was let go.
After the lingering kiss, Princess Dinah told Bella about the arrangement of Princess Effie and the others. Princess Effie and the others had already cleaned up and were placed under house arrest in the bedroom waiting for Bella to deal with them. Princess Effie, President Angelia, President Alephia and President Gladdis were all waiting in Bella’s luxurious private bedroom for her to “enjoy” herself.
The rest of the mage girls had already undergone an “in-depth exchange” with the assassins of Alexis Academy and the students from Frederica Academy. Because Bella had tied them up with red rope before, they couldn’t resist the other girls. They had given into their desires and completely forgotten where they were now.
Because she still had military affairs to deal with, Bella could only give up her wicked idea of going to her exclusive luxurious bedroom and enjoying Princess Effie and the others there. After all, they were in this airship and couldn’t escape. Once they entered the Sky Ark, they would never be able to escape from this Demon King’s control.
“By the way, Bella, Princess Lisha and Princess Kriss are looking for you. They’re waiting for you in the observation room in front of the airship.”
“I see. I’ll go right now. President Dinah, you can stay here. Your playmate is ready.”
“Wait, Annie… Princess Annie, don’t…”
Before she left, Bella pushed Princess Annie onto President Dinah. Princess Annie, who was already filled with desire, held down President Dinah for a kiss. After President Dinah had been introduced to the world of girl-on-girl action, she would be intimate with Vice President, Princess Anya, when Bella wasn’t around. Princess Annie, who had been missing for several months, was Vice President Anya’s sister. She looked very much like Vice President Anya. For a while, President Dinah almost mistook Princess Annie for Vice President Anya. She soon got into the mood and entangled her body with Princess Annie on the sofa.
On the way to the observation room, there were beautiful girls everywhere hugging each other affectionately, bodies lingering together. Girls from the five elite human schools, regardless which academy they were from, communicated with each other as closely as sisters. This airship was a lesbian’s paradise, the fragrant scent of girls permeated the air. Bella strolled along, taking advantage of these beauties along the way. Whenever she saw a beauty she liked, Bella went forward to grab or massage her sensitive area, causing the girls to moan with pleasure.
Bella banned most of the girls from seeing the bloody scenes in Kurus City down below. She was unwilling to leave psychological trauma on these girls. In contrast to the blazing hell-like Kurus City, the Grim flagship, Sky Ark, was heaven. The sharp contrast between heaven and hell was even more obvious.
“Big sister Bella, are we going to lend support to Kurus City? If you… Forget it, I’ll just listen to you!”
Lisha looked at Bella with a somewhat distressed expression. This girl couldn’t hide her little secrets. Any emotion would be written clearly on her face. But this was to be expected. After all, her dark transformed body, dragon Demonic Dragon Emperor Alisha was also a rather simple girl. Bella had the most contact with her and she felt that Lisha was the same. Both of them were so naive she could fool them into her bed several times over.
Bella looked at Kriss, who was standing on the side with a mysterious smile. From what her “real girlfriend” mentioned, she knew that Lisha had just been observing the windmill farm outside Kurus City, where Scott, one of the male transmigrated Saviors, was stationed. Lisha was certainly not looking at Scott, the God Chosen Knight, but at the three comrades from her demon-slaying team.
Berserker War Demon Bartus, The Enchanter Hayden and the Hand of Resurrection Wolff were, after all, Lisha’s original teammates from the Demon-Slaying Knights. Unfortunately, they ended up on the wrong team and mixed up with Scott, one of the male Saviors. They didn’t follow Assassin Lola when she and Lisha joined Demon King Bella. Now, they had become quasi-demon marshals in command of hundreds of thousands of demons.
This was something that bothered Lisha till today, though Bella wasn’t sure what to say. She was confident in herself. Lisha had been with her for so long that she should be able to let go of these past ties. Bella silently took Lisha’s hand and waited for her to speak. Lisha originally wanted to ask Bella if she could lend support to the windmill farm where her former teammates were.
But when she recalled how they had defeated Bella’s Demon King Coalition, Lisha hesitated. She was Bella’s sister, and Assassin Lola had surrendered to Bella. Both of them were forgiven by Bella but Bartus and the others were different from them. Bella basically didn’t care about men. This was the cause of Lisha’s hesitation. She didn’t want to destroy the special sisterhood she had with Bella just because of this.
“Big sister Bella, I…”
“Alright, since you’re my sister! However, this is the first and last time. You must completely forget your meaningless past. Lisha, you have to remember… look to the future. Stop living in the past… “
“Thank you Bella. I know you’re the best…. I know what I should do in the future!”
Lisha buried herself in Bella’s arms and behaved like a spoiled child. Bella affectionately caressed Lisha’s slender back, like a kind older sister. Princess Kriss stood there, watching them with a faint smile on her face. She wasn’t jealous at all. Lisha was like a confused little sister to her. But it would be an entirely different story if it were Princess Ariel and her roommates.
The battle plan to support Kurus City was being rapidly drawn up. There were about 500,000 abyss demons on the other side, ten times the strength of Bella’s troops. Even if the Grim airships were equipped with artillery, Bella felt that it wasn’t enough. The abyss demons weren’t as weak as the Beastman armies they dealt with a few months ago. They couldn’t withstand their attacks with artillery alone.
Even if this was the fake capital city of the Sarnia Duchy, Sarni City, it wouldn’t be able to resist the attack of the more than 500,000 abyss demons relying solely on 100,000 of the city’s defenders either. At most, Sarni City would last a little longer than Kurus City since its walls were stronger.
The simplest and cruelest way to deal with the abyss demons was to summon other abyss demons to fight them. If they waited until the Radiant Church was ready with the curse, “The Judgement of God,” it would be too late. Perhaps the capital of the Aldridge Empire would have fallen into the hands of these abyss demons. Under Bella’s command, the Grim Airship Fleet headed for Kurus City.
