Chapter 101: A Problem Amidst the Shadows

Within the Celestial Plane, Hall of Greater Divinity.

"Since you're so cooperative, I've decided to choose missions that barely complete the punishment." Nix smiled as she waved her hands in midair, three motes of light appearing in front of her body a few seconds later.

She then tapped on the centermost mote of light as it burst out, sending a surge of information towards Kurohana's mind. Thankfully, Kurohana was prepared for this thing due to her being used to accepting missions this way.

"The first mission you shall undertake is to…" Nix opened her mouth while Kurohana was digesting the mission's information.

"To satiate the built up lust accumulated by the Greater God of Pleasure, as well as find the crux of why it has accumulated."

"Eh?" After hearing Nix's words just as she finished digesting the mission information, Kurohana could not help but blush a little bit at the type of mission she just received. She looked at Nix with a slightly embarassed expression as she asked, "Isn't this mission a bit too…vulgar?"

"If it were vulgar, then I would not have picked this mission for you," Nix lightly smiled, not feeling annoyed at the fact that this question was asked. If she were in Kurohana's place, it would be weird for her to not ask the same question as well. "Although I can solve it quickly without a problem, you know I'm quite busy, and I'm sure you're going to finish this mission at a rate that isn't that much slower than mine."

Though Kurohana still had a few more questions to ask, Kurohana decided to keep these questions to herself, biting her lips as she nodded to Nix's words. "I hope it is as you say, Hallmaster."

She then looked at Phatia, who was beside her, and kneeled down as she said, "Do not worry, Big Sister, I, Kurohana, shall definitely finish her punishment to its end."

As if she had a change of heart, Phatia lightly sighed as she patted Kurohana's shoulder. "I wish you the best of luck."

Nodding to Phatia's words afterwards, Kurohana turned around to face the entrance of the hall before starting to hover off the ground. With a light whoosh sound, Kurohana was gone from the insides of the hall a few seconds later.

Looking at the faint silhouette left behind by Kurohana, Nix and Phatia looked at each other for a bit in silence. Not long after, this silence was broken by Phatia.

"The mission you sent out isn't that simple as I think, is that right?" With a rare slight smile on her face, Phatia asked.

"Of course, considering how long she has been a Greater God, she is quite close to reaching a level of power that won't lose out to me, although she still has a ways to go to completely mastering her law," Nix replied with a light smile, an expression that seemed like she did not care what was going to happen about. "Anyways, it's just a small problem with the Demons, nothing to worry about."

"Demons?" At the instant she heard this word, Phatia could not help but frown lightly. "How far have they gotten into affecting our territory?"

"It's at a level that's between not serious and quite a problem. Some of the Lesser Gods in our territory have been captured by the temptations of the Demons, with the Primordial Sin of Greed and Lust being the most prevalent sin they've acquired." Seeing the serious expression on Phatia's face, Nix could not keep her smiling façade, deciding to become serious as well.

"Have Depraved Deities appeared yet?" Thinking about it for a bit, Phatia replied.

Depraved Deities were just like the name suggests, Gods who have great control over a Principle or a Law, who have then succumbed to the temptations of the Primordial Sins, being possessed by the Sin themselves.

"That's why I sent Kurohana to that mission, we've caught wind of a Depraved Deity manipulating the Greater God of Pleasure, planning to create a True Demon God from it," Nix replied at the next instant Phatia was finished asking.

"A True Demon God, huh…" Phatia could not help but repeat those words softly. Not long after, she then started to hover off the ground as she turned around, saying, "If she ever comes back alive from this mission, remove the remaining 2 missions from her punishment, since we both know that the difficulty of this mission is nearing Greater Divine level already."

"I must report this to the other Wielders, as well as the Overseers," Phatia looked at Nix for a bit before saying, "Thanks for letting me know."

Whoosh!

At the instant Phatia was finished with her words of gratitude, she was already gone from the hall, thousands of kilometers away from the hall already, heading towards the other Wielders to talk about this problem.

As for Nix, she could only stand there for a bit and sigh lightly. Turning around, she could not help but mutter with a light smile, "As usual Phatia, you're kind towards your people. If only many other Gods were like you, then we wouldn't be taken over by the Demons again and again."

Not long after, Nix disappeared from where she stood, returning the hall back to its previous lull.

…

Since Kurohana was a Greater God herself, she took note of the locations of the other Greater Gods' palaces, especially those Greater Gods who wield immense strength, or those who were her rivals.

The Greater God of Pleasure, whose name is Chad, is one of those Greater Gods who wield immense strength, letting Kurohana commit the location of Chad's palace to memory.

With her peak speed, she was able to reach Chad's palace within an hour or so, knowing fully well that it was not far away from the Hall of Greater Divinity.

…

A few minutes later, Chad's palace was brought into Kurohana's view, letting her see a floating land filled with marble buildings, as well as statues that exuded a natural aura of joy and love. If one were to look at it from afar, one would notice that all of these buildings and statues were placed in a way that looked akin to a formation.

Swish!

Step. Step. Step.

Landing carefully on the island, Kurohana started to walk towards the insides of the island while shouting, "Chad, where are you?"

"Chad?"

"Chad!"

With the help of her own powers, Kurohana's voice was heard throughout the whole island, eliciting a soft groan that was at the same loudness as Kurohana's, yet was weaker by a soft bit, followed up with a, "I'll be there in just…a bit."

Finally hearing a response, Kurohana decided to stay where she was and waited for Chad to come see her.

Step. Step. Step.

Around ten minutes later of looking at the buildings surrounding her, Kurohana could hear the sounds of faint footsteps gradually becoming louder, prompting Kurohana to look at the silhouette that appeared in front of her.

This silhouette was none other than Chad, a man who wore a tuxedo at all times, somewhat contradicting when thinking about the law Chad governs over. His muscles could be seen etched under the tuxedo, albeit slightly. As for his face, due to his mastery over the Law of Pleasure, his face was definitely at a level of handsome worth dying for.

At this moment in time, a slight grimace could be seen on Chad's face as he hunched over, covering a certain part of his body with both hands. Due to this, Kurohana could not help but look at the direction of his hands, only for her to look upwards not long after.

Chad could not help but look at Kurohana for a bit, eliciting a pained expression from him not long after as he mustered a few words of greetings. "Nice to meet you…Kurohana."

"I apologize for coming here with this appearance, Chad," Seeing the pained expression on Chad's face, Kurohana could not help but apologize. She then snapped her fingers afterwards, turning the white dress she wore into a pristine white tuxedo, while her body changed into that of a man, thanks to her mastery over the Law of Reincarnation. "Would this appearance be better for your problem?" Kurohana asked, her voice slightly lower than before.

Seeing that Kurohana adapted to his problem, Chad could not help but give a wry smile as he said, "Thanks." He then asked, "Are you here because of the mission I sent out?"

"Yeah, if you don't mind, can I take a look and see if I can solve it?" Kurohana nodded as he replied.

"Go ahead," Chad sighed once more as he replied. "I don't hold that much hope in you fixing my problem, I've seen the Greater God of Healing already, and she can't even solve this problem at all. I thought it was just my yang [1] being imbalanced, but it turns out, it was not."

While listening to Chad's words, Kurohana used her consciousness to look at the insides of Chad's body, especially at the area where life would blossom. From their first meeting, Kurohana already felt something off from Chad, and with her consciousness, she was able to pinpoint it down to his nether regions.

"Hmm…" Closing her eyes, she tried to sense what the problem was with his nether regions, only for her to abruptly open her eyes afterwards as she muttered a soft "Eh?"

"What's wrong?" Chad, of course, did not ignore this surprised expression from Kurohana, prompting him to ask this question.

With a small frown on her face, Kurohana replied, "The problem is way worse than I thought. To think that you've been casted with a Demonic Seal!"

"Wait…" Chad took a short while to process this reply, only for him to reply afterwards with a shocked "What?!"

"There's no mistake, I've fought against the Demons before, the way they create their seals is definitely different from ours," Kurohana replied with a serious expression. Probing a bit further, she could not help but grit her teeth. "Not only that, there are two Demonic Seals casted on your body!"

"Eh?!" Chad's expression became more surprised, giving way to him slumping down on the ground. "Does that mean…I'm going to become a True Demon God?"

If Lesser Gods that have been corrupted by the Primordial Sin are known as Depraved Deities, then Greater Gods that have been corrupted by the Primordial Sin are known as True Demon Gods instead.

Kurohana shook her head to Chad's question, assuring Chad as she replied with, "Not at all. The Seals casted on you are in their beginning stages, not even enough to corrupt you. It might take some time, but your problem will be solved for sure."

"Anyways, the two seals on your body are of a sun and a moon, do you have any idea as to which God casted this on you?" Kurohana looked at Chad's eyes, only for Chad's eyes to be filled with disbelief.

"Hinari and Hodazuka?! That's impossible!" Chad could not help but cry out.

Hearing these two names, Kurohana could not help but frown.

"The Lesser Goddess of the Sun and the Lesser God of the Moon…"

"It seems that Nix's guess wasn't based off assumptions."

"This might jeopardize the safety of the whole Celestial Plane if I let it become more serious."
