Book 5: Chapter 219: The Underground Treasure Vault of No Retreat

In the mysterious underground vault of Ancient Ayr City, Demon Corian was kneeling on the ground, unable to rise. The “Tears of the Goddess”, created from the Creator of Light Vianne’s tears, was incredibly potent against demonkind. If swallowed, this guy would instantly die.

Corian struggled desperately. Its extended hand stopped a mere half meter from Bella’s neck before falling powerlessly. This thing’s battle prowess was extremely varied; in the past, Knight King Aiden expended all of his strength in order to kill Corian.

Bella expressionlessly looked at Corian, who had become a skeleton. Although collecting demon assets was a part of a Demon King’s job description, if Bella didn’t like the demon, she wouldn’t bother to collect them.

“Apologies, you’re too ugly, I don’t want to collect you. Goodbye forever.”

Bella took out the Radiant Church’s Sacred Writings which she had received from the successor of the Radiant Church, Chairman Maria; it was an exorcism book. Earlier, Bella had seen Maria, Susan, and Hayley use it.

Bella flipped open the book to the page on redemption and placed it upside down on Corian’s bleach white skull. It’s formerly expressionless skull twisted in torment before finally crumbling to dust.

In the spot where Demon Corian disappeared, Bella discovered a set of keys. After washing it clean with a couple drops of “Tears of the Goddess”, Bella picked up the large set of keys.

As for Lisha and Ingrid, who were waiting outside, Bella didn’t have to worry about their safety. They were both wearing necklaces made with the “Tears of the Goddess” and Corian had attacked Bella first instead of them.

Bella first picked up the knight treasures from the pile of treasure. They were the exclusive equipment of Stacey and Elise. Once she returned them she could ask for a bit of “labor fee”. After all, these were treasures of legends, those two wouldn’t refuse.

As for what kind of labor fees Bella would ask for, based on her evil habits, they definitely wouldn’t be normal repayment. While Bella was immersed in fantasizing about what kind of repayment she’d extort, the repayment had already arrived.

Behind a pile of gold coins, Bella discovered the owners of the special equipment. Ogleria Academy’s Earth Dragon Knight Captain, Styx Knight Stacey and Ophelias Academy’s Wyvern Knight Captain, Crimson Knight Elise, were right around the corner.

As Bella had predicted, Stacey and Elise had been completely stripped of arms, armor, and clothing. Bella had always had a sneaking suspicion that the demons of this world were dirty perverts. Whenever they captured a girl, they would always strip them bare.

Actually, Bella was overthinking things. Demons didn’t limit their stripping to women, the men were also stripped bare. Humans carried a lot of treasures on them. Historically, the earliest demons who hadn’t fully stripped their human captives were often sneak attacked and killed. 

With the bloodshed of the past as their lesson, demons had learned. They would completely strip humans as soon as they were captured. Bella had been extremely fortunate to not find any male prisoners so far, otherwise she might have been “flashed” blind with that sight.

Stacey and Elise were imprisoned within a gray cage and were chained with mysterious gray colored shackles in different positions. Stacey sat on the floor, her hands chained to a metal pillar behind her back. She was on the ground, with her legs splayed beneath her; her snow white legs were tightly shackled to the ground.

Elise was bound in a position no less humiliating than Stacey. Her hands were bound together by the mysterious gray metal chains and held over her head; she hung on a metal chain overhead. Elise was forced to stand on the tips of her toes.

Stacey and Elise had a dark black and dark red collar around their respective necks which coincidentally matched their hair colors. They also had matching ball gags shoved into their mouths.

When the two heard human footsteps, Stacey and Elise frantically raised their heads. Unfortunately they both had a black blindfold over their eyes and couldn’t see who was approaching.

Bella didn’t immediately go up to rescue them; she could sense that the two girls were currently completely powerless. They didn’t look like undefeatable Dragon Knights anymore; instead, they looked like two captive beauties. They were in a similar state to Ingrid, whom Bella had rescued earlier.

Even if a Dragon Knight was captured, it wouldn’t result in them becoming powerless. A Dragon Restriction Array should only limit the mount of a Dragon Knight, their own power would be unaffected. Stacey and Elise were both the top of their class in their respective academies, thus their power was unquestionable.

With Bella becoming quiet, Stacey and Elise panicked. Did the newcomer’s silence mean they were debating how to deal with the girls?! The two girls were blindfolded, they could only deduce that the approaching entity was a human, they couldn’t tell whether it was male or female.

As the silence dragged on, Stacey and Elise became more and more worried. If the other side was a man, and he had evil intentions, then they would be screwed. The provocativeness of their current positions were well known by the two girls. They were praying inside that their rescuer would be female.

Currently, their power was sealed away by a mysterious force, leaving them weaker than even a normal magician. Even if they weren’t bound, if they encountered a strong man, he could easily subdue them.

“So it was like this, this is too expensive. Unless, it’s that human shaped demon?”

Bella discovered a dark black colored array that gave off an evil feeling near the cage. In the center of the array, there was a skull made of black gemstones. It’s empty eye sockets dripped with crimson tears.

This was a type of evil magic array that created an enfeebling zone of darkness. Any who entered the area without a darkness affinity would be drastically weakened. Although Bella and Lisha appeared human, they were both “elders” of the dark races, this darkness zone had no effect on them.

However, humans like Dragon Knight Ingrid were severely limited by such a formation. Without a priest, this was basically a death sentence. Yet, Bella suspected that the problem wasn’t this simple.

Bella saw special dragon markings on Stacey and Elise’s chest; they were the contract imprints between a dragon knight and their mounts. Based on their imprints and their monikers, Bella guessed that their mounts were both evil dragons.

Stacey’s mount was a Styx Dragon, and Elise’s was a Blood Dragon, and both were evil dragons. The reason why Stacey and Elise weren’t more famous in the Octavia Empire was due to the fact that they didn’t use traditional mounts.

Due to their non-traditional mounts, the Octavia Empire did their best to obscure information on the two dragon knights. If it weren’t for their power as dragon knights, as well as their illustrious backgrounds, they would have already been hauled before a Radiant Church Inquisition and put to the stake.

Bella thought that the two shouldn’t have been affected as severely as they were, due to the fact that they were contracted to such deviant dragon races. She guessed that there must be a different reason for the duo’s strength restrictions.

“Hey, you girls don’t cry… I’m coming to save you.”

Stacey and Elise had leaked several tears from the corner of their eyes, leaving a pair of tear tracks down their beautiful faces. Due to Bella’s lingering silence, the pair had jumped to the conclusion that the new arrival was either a man or had simply left them; neither option was something that they could handle.

However, after hearing Bella’s voice, Stacey and Elise were relieved. The newcomer was a woman, which meant their purity was saved. The two shamefully recalled their earlier behavior, proud Dragon Knights crying in front of a stranger, and blushed. Now, they simply hoped that their rescuer wasn’t an acquaintance, otherwise they would never be able to live this down.

Bella retrieved the large ring of keys that she had looted off of Corian and found a couple keys that looked as if they matched the cage. Evidently, Corian was the demon that had locked them up.

Right as Bella was about to unlock the cage, she sensed a hateful gaze fall across her back. This treasure vault should have been empty of people. Who was so presumptuous to bother her when she had the “Tears of the Goddess”?

Bella turned around and saw the black skull within the darkness array balefully staring at her from its hollow eye sockets.

“What are you looking at? Even a piece of bone like you dares to act so impudent. Do you believe I want to throw you outside?”

“Human… If you know what’s good for you then leave the two sacrifices alone, or else… You brat, you actually…”

The skull spoke, yet before it could finish its sentence, Bella dug a mirror out from a treasure pile and pointed it directly at the skull. It’s baleful stare was reflected right back.

The darkness magic array was surrounded by several transparent barriers and Bella was unsure whether or not the “Tears of the Goddess” could be accurately used on the array. In order to avoid potentially wasting her treasure, she used a mirror to simply reflect the skull’s stare attack.

Taking advantage of the skull’s temporary blindness, she circled behind the skull and, standing atop a pile of gold coins, pulled out the Great Evil Slaying Sword. She poured a bottle of “Tears of the Goddess” onto the sword. The sword, after receiving the buff from the Tears, gave off a blinding white light.

“This weapon is… Wait, don’t attack, we’re both…”

The skull was unable to finish the last word before it was pierced through by the Great Evil Slaying Sword, which Bella had thrown from above. It died on the spot, pinned in the very center of the magic array. With a “peng”, the black gemstone in its mouth shattered.

Along with the destruction of the skull, the color of the magic array faded, signifying its imminent collapse. After taking care of this meddling observer, Bella finally opened the cage.

This treasure vault had many empty metal cages laying around; they were all identical to the one that had held Stacey and Elise. Evidently, the demon had been planning on capturing more than just the two girls. If Bella had arrived a couple days later, those cages might’ve been full of people.

There were also strange mirrors here that were similar to the ones in the church’s promenade. It was also one of Dream God Onelos’s divine mirror’s subsidiary bodies. The only difference was, within each of these mirrors, there was a scene of beautiful female students from Ogleria Academy and Ophelias Academy.

This must be a specialized tool used to capture people. The hidden culprit could use mysterious methods to capture their target female through the mirror. The power of this mirror appealed greatly to Bella’s aesthetics; she wanted to acquire the original body of this divine artifact, and use it to commit many foul deeds.

Stacey and Elise were confused. That girl had said she was going to save them, yet, after releasing them from the cage, she did nothing about their chains and instead began touching them all over.

They were all girls here! What was so interesting for her to touch? In that case why wouldn’t she just touch herself! Bella touched almost all of the sensitive spots on their bodies while pretending to check them for “curses”. With this excuse, Bella took full advantage of Stacey and Elise’s helpless state and learned their three sizes at the same time.

“Stacey, Elise, answer my question first. Are you two in a close relationship with any men right now, or perhaps an arranged marriage? If yes, just nod; be truthful, or else I’ll leave…”

The two girls couldn’t understand why Bella would ask them this, unless she wanted to introduce her brother to them as a love interest. The only problem was that Bella had only asked them this after caressing both of their chins.

Bella cupped both of their chins with her small hands, making it impossible for the girls two move their heads. Wasn’t it obvious that they couldn’t respond like this! Although they didn’t have any male pursuers due to their heretical mounts, they didn’t enjoy being forced to answer.

“That means no then! Stacey, Elise, your shackles don’t have any keyholes on them, I can’t open them right now.”

After receiving the answer that she wanted to hear, Bella finally stopped teasing Stacey and Elise and undid their blindfolds.

Once Stacey and Elise saw that their savior was the captain of the Olsylvia team, they were stunned. If they remembered correctly, this golden haired beauty was merely a Holy Knight, unless she had faked her qualifications?

Even Dragon Knights had fallen to that mysterious white fog, how could Bella, as a Holy Knight, remain unaffected? This girl wasn’t concealing her power, was she?

The two Dragon Knights had already forgotten how Bella had groped them; they were busy trying to figure out how she had made it this far. While they were distracted, Bella swiftly severed the girls’ chains.

Bella hadn’t lied earlier; the grey necklaces shackling them possessed a demonic power. If she cut them off with the Great Evil Slaying Sword, the girls would have been injured. They could only slowly figure out the removal method after getting to safety.

As for their collars and ball gags, Bella decided not to remove them. This wasn’t only due to her deviant hobby, but she also wanted to avoid any questions from the duo.

Bella also evilly hid away Stacey and Elise’s armor. Such a perfect opportunity, there was no way she would waste it!

Furthermore, she thought that the two girls’ current appearances were very beautiful. Who needed armor to cover up all that glory? Just be good girls and let me enjoy!

The faint sound of an explosion came from outside the treasure vault and Lisha, carrying Ingrid, walked in. After entering, she kicked the door closed again.

“Big Sis Bella, the demons broke through the stone door of the Torture Chamber. When they entered the basement, the explosives you placed earlier went off. The entrance is blocked now.”

Bella was infuriated! She hadn’t even gotten a chance to indulge in Stacey and Elise before that pack of demons barged in. Bella could only retract her small hand, which had been softly kneading Elise’s chest.

The entrance to the basement couldn’t be blocked for long. It was only a matter of time before those talented “miners” excavated the entrance to the treasure vault.

The treasure vault was surrounded on all sides by solid rock walls; there was even an anti demon restriction array. If Bella and Lisha wanted to break out along with the three incapacitated Dragon Knights, that would be difficult. Not only that, but Bella didn’t want to give up her “complete control” over Ingrid and the other two girls.

She could leave the treasures, but she absolutely could not leave her girls. This was Bella’s number one principle. While she was pondering her dilemma, Knight King Ayden’s blurry specter reappeared. This time, it had emerged from the remains of the destroyed evil magic array.
