Deep in Hell, Grecian Underworld:
Decaying odors filled the air as wandering souls drifted under the dim sky. Pale skeletons were scattered all around. A magic array unfolded, and five figures emerged from the transmission formation.
It was none other than Cao Cao, Siegfried, and Georg. Even Leonardo and Heracles, who had their Sacred Gears taken by Tenraku, were present.
“So, this is the Grecian Underworld. It’s quite an unpleasant place,” remarked Georg, the user of ‘Fog of Extinction – Dimension Lost,’ adjusting his glasses as he surveyed the surroundings.
“Well, it is the Reaper’s dwelling after all. Let’s not set our expectations too high,” Cao Cao, with a golden war spear in hand, spoke.
Cao Cao grinned and the leader of the Hero Faction seemed to be in high spirits.
“Although we’ve been transported to the Grecian Underworld, how do we find this person?” Siegfried, his brows furrowed, inquired.
The Grecian Underworld was vast, and a meticulous search would be quite troublesome.
“No need to worry about that. Look, they’ve come to us,” Cao Cao pointed ahead with a smile.
Siegfried and the others followed his gaze, and indeed, several figures wielding large scythes were slowly emerging from the ground. Cloaked in black robes, only their hollow eyes were visible, which were not normal biological eyes, but rather, they burned with a ghostly blue flame.
They were the Reapers of the Grecian Underworld.
“Humans, this is not a place for you to come,” A Reaper with a fierce gaze and a hoarse voice spoke.
“We apologize for the intrusion, esteemed Reaper Lords. We wish to meet your lord, His Highness Hades, to discuss an important matter. Could you kindly pass on the message for us?” Cao Cao took a step forward, speaking cheerfully.
“Leave quickly, or…”
“Die!”
Surrounding Cao Cao and the others, several Reapers emitted an aura of gray death.
While the esteemed Lord Hades was quite benevolent towards humans, it wasn’t as if they could meet him whenever they pleased.
“Hah… While it might be interesting to have a battle with the legendary Reapers, that’s not why we’re here today,” Cao Cao, taking a deep breath, shook his warspear, causing it to emanate a golden, sacred light, and his gaze became sharper.
Tension hung in the air, and after a long silence, the Reapers ultimately relented.
“Wait here.”
The flames in their eye sockets flickered a few times before one of the Reapers slowly disappeared into the ground.
Chuckling, Cao Cao also retracted his Holy Spear. Indeed, giving a little to get a little. With some reputation, things were much more convenient.
Before coming here, they had already conducted extensive investigations on the Lord Hades. If it was him, he should be interested in what they were about to propose…
In the Human World, at the Kamiya Family, within the Saints and Demons Hall:
“Stop it, Raynare.”
“Ah! Ah!”
“Hahaha!”
From the dedicated training room, Chessia and a few fallen Angels’ agonized cries could be heard, along with Raynare’s maniacal laughter. Without even looking, it was clear what kind of sinister and brutal scene was unfolding inside.
Having handed those fallen Angels over to Raynare for handling, as long as she didn’t go overboard, Tenraku didn’t bother checking on them. Instead, he went to the room where Semiria and her companions were located. He had instructed them earlier to properly train Jeanne D’arc, and he wanted to see how things were progressing.
Pushing open the door, Tenraku entered the room where the girls were. However—
“Lady Jeanne, how does this feel?”
“Lady Jeanne, please try this again.”
“Mm, they’re all quite good, my lovely juniors.”
Lounging comfortably on the sofa, Jeanne D’arc had a look of contentment on her face as the girls massaged her shoulders, kneaded her legs, and even a girl fed her pieces of sliced fruit.
Oye, Oye, this scene is a bit different from what I imagined. I told you to train her, not to serve her like this!
“Ten… Tenraku-Sama!”
Finally noticing Tenraku, fifteen girls led by Semiria turned pale and quickly stood up.
“Red… Red Dragon Emperor, you’ve come.”
Also noticing Tenraku, Jeanne D’arc’s expression stiffened. She awkwardly stood up from the sofa, propping herself up with her hands on her waist.
“Hmph, if I don’t come here, it seems like you’d have your way with my territory.”
Tenraku sat on the sofa and spoke with a darling expression on her face before he glanced around and pulled Jeanne D’arc, who was trying to escape, down onto his lap.
“Semiria, can you explain to me what’s going on?”
Examining Semiria, who was the Queen, Tenraku spoke expressionlessly.
“I’m truly sorry, Tenraku-Sama. I have disappointed you.”
“It’s not Semiria’s fault, Tenraku-Sama, it’s all of us…”
Biting her lips, Semiria bent deeply, and the other girls quickly spoke up.
“Hey, Red Dragon Emperor, if you’re looking for someone to blame then look at me. Don’t trouble Semiria and the others!”
Struggling to lift her head, Jeanne d’Arc also spoke with anger.
“Well, you’re quite spirited. Since you’ve gotten so close to Semiria and the others, it’ll be your turn after we deal with them!”
Feeling amused, Tenraku gave Jeanne D’arc a firm pat on her rear.
Yelping in pain, Jeanne D’arc glared at Tenraku indignantly. Although she wanted to confront this Devil, she was currently unable to resist being restrained.
“Semiria, explain the reason to me now. I don’t want to hear any excuses.”
Once again, Tenraku directed his gaze towards Semiria.
“Yes, Tenraku-Sama.”
After glancing worriedly at her sisters, Semiria ultimately didn’t have the courage to lie in front of Tenraku and had to tell the whole story.
Originally, Semiria and the others did intend to follow Tenraku’s orders to properly train Jeanne D’arc. They even went to Katerea for advice. However, Katerea’s suggestions were either whips or brainwashing. In any case, every method was extremely cruel and brutal.
Back when they were under Diodora’s command, the girls had already endured similar torments, so they were somewhat averse to Katerea’s methods. Moreover, Jeanne d’Arc was the reincarnation of Saintess Jeanne, and as former Saintesses, Semiria and the others admired and revered her. They couldn’t bring themselves to be so ruthless.
Jeanne D’arc naturally noticed this and, leaving aside the previous Saintess Jeanne, in this life, Jeanne d’Arc was associated with the Khaos Brigade and was also a cadre of the Hero Faction. Dealing with such a group of inexperienced girls was simply too easy…
Taking advantage of the girls’ sympathy and admiration for her previous life, Jeanne D’arc persuaded them with reason, using her skillful words to leave the girls dumbfounded. Not only did she willingly release them from their restraints, but she also served them delicious food and drinks every day.
Apart from not being able to escape, her days inside were incredibly comfortable!
“I’m truly sorry, Tenraku-Sama, we… we…”
They were probably feeling extremely embarrassed too as red flushes appeared on Semiria and the girls’ cheeks.
Now understanding what had happened, Tenraku twitched at the corners of his mouth, genuinely acknowledging their embarrassment.
It wasn’t Semiria and the others betraying him. Although they were pampering Jeanne D’arc with good food and drinks every day, they were also keeping a close watch on her. When it came down to it, they hadn’t committed a grave offense. However, Tenraku decided that after this was over, he would properly train Semiria and the others.
An enemy was an enemy. He couldn’t afford to be lax until she truly became his comrade!
“I understand what happened now, and I also take responsibility for entrusting this task to you.”
“But be prepared, if you make a mistake, you’ll be punished. After this, I will also punish you.” Tenraku spoke with a serious expression on his face.
“Yes, Tenraku-Sama.”
Although Tenraku-Sama said he would punish them, Semiria and the girls secretly breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Tenraku-Sama didn’t drive them away, they could accept any kind of punishment.
“Jeanne d’Arc, you’re quite remarkable. You’ve managed to completely fool my Peerage.” Tenraku’s gaze fell on Jeanne D’arc again and sneered.
“What… what do you mean by ‘fool’? I am the reincarnation of the Saintess Jeanne’s, and I am their senior!”
Continuously struggling, Jeanne D’arc retorted defiantly.
“Hmph, whatever you say.”
“Jeanne d’Arc, I’ll ask you again. Will you submit to me?”
“Never! Red Dragon Emperor, don’t think I’ll yield just like this!”
A resolute expression filled Jeanne D’arc’s face as she thought to herself, even if I’ve been ‘slept with’ by you, I still won’t yield!
“Heh heh, that’s how it should be. If you submitted so easily, it would be less fun for me.”
“Alright then, I’ll personally train you!”
With an evil curve at the corner of his mouth, Tenraku activated his Evil Eye’s ability to unfold the Time Domain, instantly enveloping the entire room in his domain.
“Re… Red Dragon Emperor, what do you intend to do?”
Seeing that Tenraku seemed to be getting serious, Jeanne D’arc’s eyes couldn’t help but panic.
“What do I intend to do? Of course, I’m going to completely make your body and soul mine!”
“Don’t worry, it will be very, very interesting, and you’ll remember it for the rest of your life.”
“Now, let your body submit to me!”
Laughing darkly, Tenraku lifted Jeanne D’arc and stood up, then threw her onto the nearby bed.
Letting out a cry of surprise, Jeanne d’Arc didn’t need much time to figure out what Tenraku was planning. What he meant by letting her body submit to him was that this jerk was clearly trying to ‘have his way’ with her again!
However, before Jeanne D’arc could think further, Tenraku had already pounced on her with a low growl.
“Stop, stop, Red Dragon Emperor…”
“Ah! Ahhh!”
