The Manasvir Empire’s Capital, Macnadix City. As the richest of the five human empires, Macnadix City was not only large, but it was also a complete commercial hub. With close to thirty million inhabitants, this super city had a population comparable to the large cities on Earth.
Macnadix City’s royal guards numbered more than two million. Even though they had high headcount, their primary mission was to maintain the security of the imperial capital and could not be mobilized. At best, they could be used as a display to scare the four warlords around the Manasvir Empire’s territory. The combat ability of the capital region’s royal guards was weak. They, who rarely had any experience in war, could hardly be a match for the soldiers of the empire’s four great warlords who often engaged in battles.
In addition to the royal guards, Macnadix City also had around three million imperial city guards, yet these guards were even worse. They were only equivalent to the police officers back on Earth. Fortunately, all the inhabitants of Macnadix City were wealthy, and they had no slums. Hence, the security was a bit better.
With Bella giving instructions in the background, the girls of Olsylvia Academy finally reached a compromise with the Manasvir Empire’s royal guards who came to pick them up. Both sides took a step back, and the girls were to choose their own place of stay. However, they were not to be separated into groups, and they all had to move as one. Then, they would leave Cromwell Village to the royal guards to handle.
Bella, who was intent on causing trouble, had already entrusted Time-Space Magic Demon Noesha in secret to set up a hidden fixed-point magical teleportation array near the entrance of the mysterious cellar under the dark idol at Crom Cathedral. Once the guards loosened up, she would have the free time to go make a mess. There must be a lot of stories hidden in that cellar. Bella didn’t think that they would make a secret passage like that just for decoration.
The several thousand girls of Olsylvia Academy were all stationed together at Macnadix City’s eastern district, Christian Good Luxury Hotel. This hotel was set up by one of the Rose Society’s founding members, Jenny, daughter of the richest man of the Manasvir Empire, Duke Blake. Since the hotel was owned by one of their own, it was basically free.
The layout of Macnadix City was similar to Olsylvia Academy. It was split into several zones, with the center belonging to the royal family and the nobles’ residency. A million guards were stationed there, with another million guarding the outer periphery of the area. The other four districts were manned with 250,000 royal guards and 500,000 regular guards, respectively.
The central district was closed to the public, which was pretty much equivalent to the Forbidden City in ancient China. Ordinary citizens were now allowed near there. Of the remaining four districts, the southern district was the trading market or the large market area, so to speak.
The northern district was the residential district, while the western district was the entertainment area with all sorts of fun to be had. It was said that if you had the money, you could have fun there for an entire lifetime. The eastern district was the hotel district, responsible for taking care of the outsiders.
The original plan of the Manasvir Empire’s officials was to arrange for the students of Olsylvia Academy to go to the central district, the royal territory, and they would be arranged to stay in the noble mansions. However, Bella instructed the female mentor in charge, Beauty Dragon Knight Ingrid, to refuse the request. The central district was the Emperor’s sphere of power, so she only trusted the hotels of one of her own right now, not the arrangements of the Manasvir Empire’s Emperor.
According to the Emperor’s original intentions, the boys and the girls were to be separated. The boys would head to the northern residential district, while the girls would be stationed in the central district in groups of ten. Naturally, Bella wouldn’t agree to such strange arrangements, and the boys of Olsylvia Academy did not, either. Instead, they chose another hotel in the eastern district, Grand Julius Hotel.
Previously at Chapman City, the boys were fooled by Grand Duke Gould. Spiritual Great Magister Orlando was tricked into leaving the city by him. Acting on the orders brought to him by those demons masquerading as imperial envoys, Grand Duke Gould coaxed Orlando into believing that the inter-academy qualifying competition had begun. Furthermore, extra points would be given to those who reached Macanadix City first. And so, the group of boys foolishly set out just like that.
Fortunately, several male saviors took control of the situation and quickly stopped the demons’ attacks. As a result, the boys were able to arrive at Macnadix City without a single casualty. Only, they were a little slower than the girls. Christian Hotel had already been fully booked by the girls, so the boys would have to find another place to stay for now.
Since the girls did not go to the central district, the boys naturally declined their invitation to go to the northern district as well. Right now, the students of Olsylvia Academy were all resting. As compensation for the various scares the students encountered before, the empire had given them a three-day vacation.
The qualifiers would officially begin in three days. As they were busy selecting the venue, the students were allowed to enjoy themselves in all the entertainment hubs available in Macnadix City. All of their spendings would be reimbursed by the empire afterward.
It was said that the demons encountered by the students a few days ago were all arranged to test the students’ strength, but of course, Bella didn’t believe it blindly. Since the empire had decided to “seal their lips” with money, she would just “go with the flow”. Right now, she was more curious about the layout of this Macnadix City. It was really a bit too modern, and this was supposedly designed by the Empress about a few thousand years ago. Now, this Empress looked more and more likely to be another transmigrated one.
At the moment, the girls of Olsylvia Academy were all resting inside Christian Hotel, waiting for the qualifiers to begin in three days. Because of the changes they had encountered, the girls had become much more sensible. They all waited patiently in the hotel for news, unlike the boys next door who spent their three days of leisure time wandering around Macnadix City, looking for some entertainment to amuse themselves.
Most of the girls had gone to relax at the indoor swimming pool of the hotel. Bella took this opportunity to sell the hot bikini swimsuits she designed, with her bikini shop being set up right by the pool. At first, most of the girls were rather shy about this type of swimsuit, which had shame levels a bit out of bounds for this other world.
It was only after Beauty Dragon Knight Ingrid, Supreme Magic Mentor Catalina, and Melvira, these three beautiful mentors tried them on, as well as the other girls of the Rose Society, that the girls finally had the courage to wear the swimsuits openly. None of the boys were around, so for Bella and the other girl lovers, this was practically heaven. Their only male mentor, Bishop Stanley, had already left for the imperial city to discuss the competition. Only the girls were here.
Bella rested in the pool’s luxurious private rooms. This place was for skinny dipping, so the beautiful maidens took off all their swimsuits after entering. Right at the center of the small pool were the Radiant Church’s four Holy Maidens: Holy Maiden Hayley, Holy Maiden Sophia, Holy Maiden Daisy, and Holy Maiden Susan. They were all playing in the water. Bella was sitting on the artificial beach by the pool while the Radiant Pope’s successor, President Maria, helped massage her legs. Holy Swordsman Cynthia was in her original form, sticking right to Bella’s back and rubbed her shoulders.
Not far in front of Bella were the Radiant Church’s two great maiden popes, Goldsmith and Roxanne, who were sitting in a wide kneeling position with their hands tied behind their backs with red ribbons. A pair of luxurious golden collars decorated with gems were secured around their necks, and the ends of the chains were set nearby Bella at a place where it was easily accessible.
“Bella, you… didn’t you come to attend prayer service? Why did you lie to us?”
“Bella, you’re despicable! Even though we helped you last time at Cromwell Village, you actually…”
“My, Your Holynesses, I’m innocent! I invited you to come for a swim with me, so I could treat the two of you.”
Bella had a naughty smirk on her lips, purposefully ignoring the protests of the two maiden popes. This morning, she had forcefully “invited” Goldsmith and Roxanne to come rest early while they were still recovering from consuming too much energy last time.
The two maiden popes knew that Bella had no good intentions, but they didn’t have the energy and were eventually “manhandled” to this place. This was the ridiculous scene they saw as soon as they arrived. Besides feeling ashamed, the two also felt an inexplicable thrill deep inside their hearts—the thrill of taboo.
“Two maiden popes, you’re already so excited, but you say you feel nothing? Seems like I’ll have to check your bodies!”
“Who… Who’s feeling anything! Don’t you do anything strange, Bella!”
“You’ve taken both the Holy Maiden and the Holy Swordswoman of the church. Just give us a break, will you! Please…”
Goldsmith and Roxanne were desperately saying no, but their bodies were more honest. The strange water stains on the floor had already sold them out. The duo was already at their peak of excitement, but they were just haughty. The Radiant Church’s Law Enforcement Team’s captain, Mathilde, was laying down obediently in front of Bella as her makeshift “table”. Several drinks were placed on her snow-white backside.
Bella kissed both President Maria and Holy Swordsman Cynthia before getting up and pushing the two of them down face to face. President Maria immediately tangled with Holy Swordswoman Cynthia, and the two of them kissed each other’s dainty, snowy bodies in a scene that emitted the scent of lilies.
“Goldsmith, Roxanne, the Radiant Church will be mine sooner or later. You should stop struggling and just accept becoming my private priestesses! Wouldn’t it be nicer for everyone to be the same as this?”
Bella walked up to Mathilde and lowered her head, savoring her lips in a sweet kiss. While enjoying herself, she pulled on the two delicate gold chains on the floor, forcing Goldsmith and Roxanne to stumble closer. In the face of a devil like Bella, the two maiden popes were filled with horror and unease. This erotic demon queen was using all sorts of wicked ways to sully the entire Radiant Church, and she was already halfway there. Only, neither Goldsmith nor Roxanne was willing to admit defeat.
“No… The Light will not…”
“All of you, come here and take care of these two seniors. Otherwise, I’ll tell all the priestesses to come in one by one and eat them up just like I did with you!”
“No, don’t be fooled by the darkness. Stop… No… Don’t…”
Under Bella’s instructions, the four Holy Maidens of the Radiant Church “crawled” out of the swimming pool. In groups of two, they held down the fair struggling bodies of Goldsmith and Roxanne separately. Holy Maiden Susan and Holy Maiden Hayley, both traditional Holy Maidens, had Goldsmith sandwiched between them, front and back. On the other hand, Roxanne was being sandwiched by Holy Maiden Daisy and Holy Maiden Sophia, two Holy Maidens who were surprisingly different.
The eyes of the Holy Maidens were filled with excitement. Without further instruction from Bella, they took Goldsmith and Roxanne’s luscious lips and tangled with their fair dainty bodies. The air was filled with the fragrance of lilies. However, Bella was the only one fortunate enough to admire this wondrous, nose-bleed inducing image, increasing her sense of accomplishment. At this moment, she could feel the euphoria of success, as if she had conquered the entire Radiant Church.
With the first generation of the Radiant Church’s Holy Swordsman, her “Radiant Church collection” would be complete. The first-generation Holy Swordsman was a girl, too. Back when the sixth generation Radiant Pope came into power, there was a Holy Maiden who could have succeeded the fifth generation Radiant Pope Roxanne. Still, she chose to guard the entire Radiant Church as the first generation Holy Swordsman.
This Holy Swordsman could also be considered the sixth generation Radiant Pope, but her final whereabouts were a mystery. Whether she still lives was not explained. Bella’s subconscious defaulted to her being alive, just like how Goldsmith and Roxanne were both still hiding in the continent, waiting for Bella to come pick them up.
Goldsmith and Roxanne could no longer hold on under the violation of the Holy Maidens. They kneaded, licked, and suckled them in all sorts of ways, causing various strange noises to come out of the two maiden popes.
The Holy Maidens had pious looks on their faces, as if violating their idols and heroes was a sacred thing. Doing such erotic and shameful things with such holy expressions was the most deadly seduction to Bella. Getting excited from watching, she forcefully pushed down Captain Mathilde, who was spectating with her at the side.
Captain Mathilde was clearly no match for Bella and was soon “ravaged”. Bella had already been indirectly given control of the entire Law Enforcement Team of the Radiant Church. After putting Mathilde down, she stood up and looked at all the various church members forming a mess of a pit in the pool. A devilish smile appeared on her face.
A separate prayer chapel had been set up in this private pool. Bella had entrusted one of her trusted aides to modify the place, and it had now become a scene commonly appearing in eroge. After getting exhausted from caressing each other in the pool, the Holy Maidens were all sent into this special chapel by Bella.
This chapel was no different from the usual ones by the Radiant Church. The Goddess of Light’s statue was similarly erected in it; only the benches had all been replaced with soft red carpets. The candles, originally white, were now replaced with warm red ones. Once the Holy Maidens were brought here, Bella helped each of them put on a cross necklace that symbolized their identities as Holy Maidens.
“Bella, what are you… This is a chapel! Quickly, let us go…”
“Bella, you’re terrible! We can’t… We can’t do such things in front of the Goddess of Light! You… All of you have to endure!”
The two maiden popes, Goldsmith and Roxanne, were able to see through Bella’s evil plan at first glance. She wanted to ruin the Holy Maidens’ impressions completely by making them do such shameful things in front of the Goddess of Light’s statue. Red candles lit up in the church were clearly spiked with some sort of mysterious poison.
Besides Bella, the other Holy Maidens were all flushed and sweating, drenching their bodies in an alluring sight. They were clamping their legs together, as if they could not suppress the torture of desire. The special “aphrodisiac” lit up along with the red candles belonged to the soul grade, meaning they could affect the victim’s very souls. They could crumble down their bodies. Since Bella’s soul was not that of a pure maiden’s, she was not affected by the drug.
Bella reached out to turn a candlestick, and a large golden cage fell from above, locking all the Holy Maidens, Maiden Popes, Holy Swordswomen, and the rest of the beautiful girls inside. Bella lit more of the red candles, causing the fog in the chapel to grow even thicker.
“Let us out, Bella! Don’t be like this. We’ll do anything you want, okay? Not in front of the Goddess of Light… Don’t pull me, President Maria! Sober up a—Mmhmm…”
“Your Holiness Pope Roxanne, your body smells so sweet, and it’s so soft here. Can I take a bite?”
“No! Don’t bite… You’re sucking it… Ah!”
Under the effects of the drug, Even Goldsmith and Roxanne, the only sober ones, were dragged into this ridiculous madness. The golden cage was filled with all manners of fair jade bodies twisting together in a blood spurting scene. The crosses hanging in front of their chests crashed into each other with a crisp clink. Along with the wonderful moans, this was the “most special” daytime prayer service Bella had ever seen.
Bella had put in a good number of open copies of the Radiant Church’s catechisms. They had already been wet by the sweat and other strange liquids of the Holy Maidens, leaving various traces and stains. The scene evoked a taste of lily that was filled with blasphemy and taboo. If the Goddess of Light were to see this, she might just die of anger!
Bella raised her head to look at the Goddess of Light’s statue, a devilish smile forming on her lips. She made a victory pose at her and left the chapel. If the Goddess of Light were here, Bella wouldn’t mind tossing her into the golden cage to join the party too. After successfully blaspheming Death Goddess Rowling, Water Goddess Serna, and the Goddess of Life in the past, adding the Goddess of Light into the mix was nothing significant.
“Goldsmith, Roxanne, just stay here and have fun with everybody! I’ll be back in three days to let you all out. Also, I’ll help you smooth things out on Grandpa Stanley’s side.”
Before leaving, Bella turned another candlestick, and a pink curtain descended from above, covering the golden cage. Nobody else would ever find out what wonderful things were happening inside other than Bella, leaving only the beautiful moans to echo through the chapel.
