At the Aldridge Empire’s seaside resort, Oldrango City’s coastal region, near the waters of Phoenix Island, Wadsworth Coral Island. This was the Oceanic Race’s frontline base that they were using to prepare their sneak attack on Phoenix Island. Since the Aldridge Empire basically had no navy, the Oceanic Race’s united fleet was able to stay here for quite some time without being discovered by the humans.
Just as the Oceanic Race was going to launch its offensive on Phoenix Island, their fleet was attacked by the Phantom Fleet. They dyed the waters around Wadsworth Coral Island red, with bodies of the Oceanic Race soldiers floating on the surface.
A great fire had been lit on Wadsworth Coral Island. The Phantom Fleet’s Demonic Beings were flying around like bombers in an air raid, throwing down explosive barrels from high above the air. They landed on the mountains being used by the Oceanic Race on Wadsworth Coral Island as defensive positions. Amidst the light and the deafening explosions, a large number of boats set sail from the Phantom Fleet, heading to the beaches of Wadsworth Coral Island.
Many groups of Skeleton Soldiers had already landed on Wadsworth Coral Island and were in the midst of a bloody battle with the Oceanic Race’s troops. Bella was currently standing near the railing of the Phantom Fleet’s flagship, “Carol”, watching the battlefield in the distance. She originally wanted to go over and have a good time herself, but the large numbers of demon generals present on the fleet dissuaded her. Such trivial matters would make the demon generals lose face if they had to entrust the Demon King to personally step up.
Bella also complied and did not get off the ship. She was here to oversee the situation, so she could leave the others for her subordinates to deal with. Demon generals of all sorts of species stood behind Bella, including a Great Demon, a Skeleton General, an Ogre Warlord, a Phantom Knight, and a Dark Demon Sorcerer.
“My Lord, we have suppressed and blocked off the entire periphery of Wadsworth Island. Complete control of this section is ensured before tomorrow.”
“My Lord, the Oceanic Race’s backup fleet has already been defeated by us in the waters. Hundreds of warships have been sunk, and only a few dozen blazing warships barely escaped. We have confirmed that the flagship of the reinforcement fleet has been sunk.”
“Well done. You guys can go when you’re done here. I’ll arrange for someone else to watch over after dawn. Control won’t be necessary.”
Bella gave her decision to the report of the Skeleton General and the Ogre Warlord without even turning around. Once the sun rose, Bella would arrange her own Human Race’s “lackeys” and “minions”, that was, the Manasvir Empire’s Royal Secret Guard, to come over to clean up the battlefield and deal with the aftermath. Bella did not intend to have her demon subordinates take control of this worthless island.
“My Lord, regarding the gambling syndicate from the Manasvir Empire that tried to interfere with the tournament, my subordinates have found their headquarters. Only… it seems someone has been there before us. When I arrived, it was already…”
“Oh, you found the location, Dark Demon Sorceror? Bring me there. We aren’t needed here anymore. Just send me a brief report after the island is cleared.”
After receiving the reports from her subordinates, Bella did not delay and immediately commanded the flagship Carol to turn around and set sail towards Babbitt Island near Wadsworth Coral Island. The place was rumored to be the den of a gambling syndicate. Since the start of the Twelve Human Academy Tournament, the syndicate had been here, secretly manipulating the gambling games over there.
By the time Bella arrived, the island had already long gone under Skeleton Soldiers’ control, who had come in advance. Bella disembarked on Babbitt Island with her demon generals and discovered that the island had long been deserted. In a secret camp, she found a pile of documents left behind by the gambling syndicate, as well as gold coins scattered all over the floor. Obviously, these people had left in quite a hurry, so much so that they didn’t even grab their money.
“Any discoveries? Not even a corpse?”
“My Lord, this place was already in this state when we arrived. Don’t even mention humans; there wasn’t even a single animal here. There are no traces of activity from the Oceanic Race nearby.”
None of Bella’s demon generals could give a convincing explanation as to what happened here. After walking around, Bella did not find any valuable clues either and could only give up for the time being. However, just as she was about to lose heart, she found a few drops of strange blood near the corner of a table.
It was not human blood, but more like the Blood Race. As a Demon King, even if she wasn’t a vampire, her ability to distinguish between blood was still quite high. There should be signs of the Blood Race’s activities on this island. After discovering their traces, Bella seemed to understand the other party’s intentions. Quietly, she discussed something with her demon generals before leaving with teleportation magic.
Not long after Bella left, the members of the gambling syndicate on Babbitt Island returned again. They still looked normal, but the Phantom Knights, who were secretly observing them, could see through their disguise. These gambling syndicate members didn’t even care about their business. They all boarded ships to head towards the Human Continent as a large number of Phantom Knights trailed behind them in the shadows.
It was already late when Bella reached the temporary villa at Phoenix Island. She had just received news from her subordinates that the Blood Race had disguised themselves as the humans and was heading to the Human Continent. While they were uncertain about the Blood Race’s intentions, Bella chose to send someone to secretly follow and watch them. Of course, she still “enthusiastically” posted about the Blood Race’s strange actions anonymously on the system-type Saviors’ communication platform.
There was basically not much Bella had to worry about right now. After all, there would be large waves of system-type Saviors heading in to find trouble with the Blood Race for the sake of points. Bella just had to sit aside and watch the show. After solving the threat of the Oceanic Race’s invasion, the gambling syndicate’s interference in the tournament, the Bridges Kingdom’s attempt to restore power, as well as the re-sealing of the Cursed Land’s entrance, the closing of the Twelve Academy summer exchange tournament finally welcomed some peace.
Bella let out a long sigh of relief and returned to the resting area of the villa. The villa’s perimeter was guarded by the Manasvir Empire’s Royal Secret Guards, who had become the Demon King’s “minions” and “lackeys”. The ones stationed inside were female demons. Bella’s safety could be completely ignored, but these guards were there to hold up her prestige as a Demon King. It would be too shameful if there was not even a single guard at the Demon King’s residence.
The demons did not interfere with the Demon King’s private life, so there were no demons stationed in private areas, such as the bedroom or the bathroom. Even though they were all ladies, they still had to hold some distance. Even more, this Demon King Bella’s hobbies were worlds apart from an average Demon King. She was a wolf hiding under a pretty girl.
Several Demon Kings were residing here in the villa, such as Sky Demon King Dolores and Blood Demon King Eleanor, who had already fallen asleep in the same room. Bella looked at the two beautiful Demon Kings and resisted the urge to join them on the bed. She turned around and headed next door into Dark Night Demon King Aggy and Ocean Demon King Victoria’s room. There was no helping it. Who knew which one of the girls Dolores and Eleanor learned it from, but they were actually sleeping naked.
In order to keep down her impulses, Bella could only shift places for now and head next door to Dark Night Demon Lord Aggy and Ocean Demon King Victoria’s room. Even though their respective black and blue see-through nightwear was also tempting with no underwear beneath, it was at least a bit better than Eleanor and Dolores. They still had some fabric to cover their bodies.
“Bella, you’re here. You really do have a lot of subordinates. How nice it would be if we were from the same camp!”
“Aggy, how are your injuries? If you’re willing, I’m ready to welcome you to our camp any time. The doors are always open for you.”
“Don’t be fooled, Aggy. She’s definitely got a nasty plan in her head.”
Ocean Demon King Victoria at the side jumped out in time to stop Bella’s naughty attempt to trick Dark Night Demon King Aggy, which Bella could only complain about inwardly. She contemplated when she would be able to pull in Ocean Demon King Victoria as well. When that time came, see if she’d still dare go against her.
“By the way, Bella. We’ll have to return once the tournament ends tomorrow. We received news from the other Demon Kings that our mission has changed.”
“Is that so? Then, can we still meet up in the future? I’ll miss you, Victoria. You’ll miss me too, won’t you?”
“Bella, how am I supposed to answer that? With your power and character, you’d forcefully create an opportunity for us to meet again even if we didn’t. I simply have no idea how I’m supposed to answer that question.”
Neither Dark Night Demon King Aggy nor Ocean Demon King Victoria could answer Bella straight out. Through their understanding of her these days, even if they wanted to run, Bella could easily find them if she wanted to. It was obvious from the beginning, so they didn’t have to entertain her.
Bella wasn’t too surprised about Dark Night Demon King Aggy and Ocean Demon King Victoria’s early farewell. After all, they weren’t from the same camp, so this sort of thing was inevitable. Aggy and Victoria’s mission should be related to the opening of the gate to the Cursed Land. Their plan, though, had been declared a failure in advance before they even began because of Bella.
The Ancient Twelve Demon Kings must have cooked up some new evil plan that they were so anxious to summon the two Demon Kings back from their “site visit”. Bella didn’t fuss with the two of them any longer. There was a delicate relationship between the old and new factions of the Demon Kings, and many of the old Twelve Demon Kings were already aware of the New Demon Kings.
Even though there was not much direct communication between both factions, it was a tacit agreement for them to not interfere with each other. For example, the New Demon Kings controlled the Sarnia Duchy, the Angelos Duchy, and a small part of the Beastman Continent. These places all belonged to the New Demon Kings’ sphere of influence, so the Old Demon Kings wouldn’t send people to infiltrate.
The relationship between both sides was in a relatively balanced state. Before Bella found the Twelve Demon Kings on this side, she didn’t want to have any head-on conflict with the Old Demon King forces either. It was easy for the Savior Camp to just come in and reap all the benefits. Since both sides had no intentions of overthrowing each other for the time being, it was better to just tacitly accept the other’s existence.
Bella said goodbye to Dark Night Demon King Aggy and Ocean Demon King Victoria before arriving at her own bedroom. On top of the black rose bed sheets were three fair lolis sitting there, shivering. They sat on their knees with their legs spread and their hands over the modestly-sized bunnies on their chests. These three lolis were none other than Collapsing Evil Dragon Emperor Lolita, Devouring Holy Dragon Euphenisia, and the newly acquired member, Cursed Demonic Dragon Queen Stimmons.
The three were in a rarely seen nude state. As the stronger existences by Bella’s side, using force to put them down wouldn’t be too useful. Trickery was the key. This time, if not for Curse Demonic Dragon Queen Stimmons’s “midway betrayal”, Bella would never have the opportunity to see the full-body fanservice of all three of them at the same time.
When they saw Bella enter, the faces of the three turned red with intoxication. As it turned out, once they used their weapon transformations, they would enter a special state of excitement. They would require their master to soothe them in a certain way, as if they had taken some strange stimulants. Stimmons accidentally told Bella that secret, and Lolita and Euphenisia, who had no idea, were fooled into it as well.
However, Lolita and the girls were powerful existences after all. Even if their bodies were aroused, their eyes remained clear and sober. If any other beauty saw Bella enter, they would long have been unable to restrain their instinctive lust.
“Mistress Bella, really… You could have told us you needed a weapon. Also, Stimmons, you actually pulled a fast one on us! How mean.”
“Lolita, you… Don’t misunderstand. It was Mistress Bella. I couldn’t refuse her. She has something special that can make me obey.”
“Still, you should have talked to Lolita and me first. Seriously…”
Bella looked at the lolis fighting on the bed and had a look of appreciation on her face. For beauties at Lolita’s level, Bella couldn’t “push” them with force. Thus, even stripping them gave Bella a strong sense of accomplishment. As for pushing them down, she wasn’t in a hurry for now. She came up with a wicked plan.
In fact, this special state could be solved in two ways: either be bullied until they went limp or bully someone else. Since Bella temporarily did not want to bully Lolita and the girls, nor did she want to be bullied, she’d just have to find some other girls for them to bully. Bella turned a sconce on the bedroom wall, and a secret door opened. So there were secret compartments built into the villa.
The secret compartment was an erotic torture room with all sorts of strange props. The beautiful ladies Bella had saved from the Ender Dragon’s lair had been placed here. They had their hands and legs bound with red rope before they were strung up in the special chamber. Their eyes had been blindfolded with black cloth, and their ears stuffed with cotton. With their little mouths gagged with a small red ball as well, they were simply defenseless dolls waiting to be bullied.
“Mistress Bella, what is the meaning of this? I… I’m not that kind of person!”
“Lolita, don’t hold back. I won’t be here after this, so just do as you please.”
“Huh? Mistress Bella, isn’t this for… Don’t look at me. I don’t know anything! Really.”
“Ahem, Euphenisia. You seem quite familiar when I haven’t even said anything. Stimmons, you’re going too fast as well. To think you chose such a hardcore toy.”
Bella handed all sorts of strange props to Lolita and the girls before she left. She had always had a very accurate eye when it came to women. Lolita and the girls only had bodies of lolis, but they were secretly sadists just like the erotic loli, Time Space Demon Noesha. Bella hardly needed to give them any special guidance, yet they mastered the use of the whips, candles, and all sorts of other erotic BDSM equipment.
Bella left the room. It was better for her to hand the night to Lolita and the girls to handle for themselves. After locking the door, she instructed the demon girls and told them not to let anyone enter the room before she left. She intended to have the girls let go of their proud and condescending attitudes and experience the charm of this intimate game between ladies. That way, she could make early preparations to push them down in the future.
“Mistress Bella, Princess Kriss has come to search for you. She is outside the villa and seems to have urgent business.”
“Kriss? Isn’t it night time? I’ll go and see her.”
Bella went outside the villa. Right outside and under a tree was Princess Kriss, dressed in silver swordsman’s chainmail. Kriss had an anxious look on her face, and when she saw Bella, she didn’t even ask why she had the smell of some other girls’ perfume on her body and came straight over to hug her. Bella could feel the uneasiness in her heart and reached out to hug Kriss’s slightly trembling, delicate body.
“What’s wrong, Kriss? What happened? Coming so late to find me, if you don’t rest well, it might affect the finals tomorrow!”
“Bella, I just heard from Little Sister Khalifa. Our Emperor seems to be preparing some sort of matchmaking activity and told me to participate in it after the tournament. What should I do? Other than you, I…”
“I found out about that long ago. Don’t worry, Kriss. I’ll take a leave after the tournament and go back with you. When that time comes, we can just get engaged. We’ll have that old fox give up completely.”
