The northern area of Olsylvia Academy, the Filomena n.o.bility Academy, the central area of the Emerson Business District, the Rose Society’s exclusive hotel, the Hausmann Hotel.
In the lobby, the meeting between Bella and the Radiant Church was underway.
President Maria and the others chose silence. One side was their teacher, the other, their close friend. It was really difficult to pick a side so silence was the best. The Hausmann Hotel only had guards because they didn’t have the time to hire new waiters. Bella skipped inviting the Radiant Church members to breakfast and went directly to the meeting.
On Bella’s chest hung the personal cross of the first generation Pope Goldsmith, the third generation Pope McPherson, and the fifth generation Pope Roxanne of the Radiant Church. Wearing three crosses gave a great sense of disobedience but it was the symbol of the three generations of Light Popes and was of great significance to the Radiant Church members. Maria and the others could only stare on with solemn expressions.
“d.u.c.h.ess Bellina, can you tell us the origin of these crosses? By the way, this is Cynthia, the Holy Swordsman of the Radiant Church. We have only recently been informed of her true ident.i.ty.”
The person communicating with Bella was Archbishop Miga, who was the dean of St. Louis Church Academy and one of the rotating presidents of Olsylvia Academy. After all, Bella was a student of Olsylvia Academy. By communicating as teacher and student, they could avoid unnecessary embarra.s.sments on both sides.
Bella carried proof of the ident.i.ty of the previous generations of Light Popes with her. If she really wanted to go with the etiquette of the Radiant Church, the three Archbishops had to visit Bella as well. Obviously, there would be many difficulties. If the current Light Pope and his successor were still alive, the appearance of the last few Light Popes would be a direct challenge to the divine right of the Light Pope.
The fact that Bella’s cross was authentic was the most difficult aspect deal with. The previous generations of Light Popes were missing from the church history. Archbishop Ellen and Archbishop Salo, for their own reasons, had chosen to wait and see for the time being. They had crossed paths with Bella before and needn’t introduce themselves again.
“Well, I got it. These crosses? If I said they personally gave them to me, would you believe me? I have a hobby of tomb raiding. I think Archbishop Ellen has personally witnessed it.”
“This...”
Bella had long been acquainted with Cynthia and had physically taken her. Now she was just pretending to meet her for the first time. Archbishop Miga was stunned by Bella’s words. He looked at Archbishop Salo and Archbishop Ellen with an inquiring look in his eyes, seeming to ask for their opinions. But the other two weren’t sure what to say. A bewitching silence befell the room.
Due to the destruction of the G.o.d World, paralyzing the reincarnation pa.s.sage. Of course, the top rungs of the Radiant Church were well aware of this. Some of the more powerful human heroes had their own ways to keep their souls in the world without going through reincarnation. For example, the dozens of generations of Light Popes, beginning from the sixth generation Light Pope Lindberg, were now living in seclusion in the holy land in Radiant Church’s Holy City.
Due to the disappearance or death of the previous generations of Light Popes, the followers of later generations truly believed that these popes had really left. If Bella’s words were true, then the position of current of the Light Pope was in danger. Some of the previous generation Light Popes weren’t good people.

Bella received the Pope’s secret letter from Archbishop Miga and roughly looked through it after opening it. The content affirmed the friends.h.i.+p between Bella and the Radiant Church, and also told Bella in a rather cryptic way that the Radiant Church could meet her requirements as long as she doesn’t spread the discovery of the previous generation Light Popes’ relics.
Bella didn’t reveal the whole truth to the Radiant Church. She explained that when she raided the tomb, she accidentally discovered the resting place of the previous generation Light Popes and stole it from them. Her previous statement that the relics were personally given to her by the previous generation Light Popes was merely an exaggeration.
Robbing the Popes’ resting place was a felony, but compared to this, stabilizing the current Pope’s divine power was obviously more important. Archbishop Miga chose to believe Bella and reluctantly accepted this somewhat far fetched statement.
Bella’s conditions were very clear, as if she had written them in advance. She handed the note with her requests to Archbishop Miga who was stunned after reading it over a few times. Bella’s offer surprised him. He had never expected Bella to make such a request.
Bella’s request is–Swordsman Cynthia and the four Holy Maidens of the Radiant Church must serve the Radiant Church all their lives. The Light Pope must promise that they will not be involved in any political marriages in the future and put it in writing.
This request was no problem, but it was too easy. Yet Bella, as the person who proposed the conditions, received no benefits at all, which was rather strange. Why did Bella ask for terms that did nothing for her? This was confusing not only to Archbishop Miga but also Archbishop Salo and Archbishop Ellen who came with him. The current Radiant Church’s Pope in the Holy City couldn’t fathom Bella’s real purpose.
Archbishop Ellen was the first to agree to her terms. As the teacher of Holy Maiden Hayley and Holy Maiden Susan, he had always felt remorse for not being able to prevent the Light Pope from arranging marriages for them. Bella’s request so happened to meet his wishes.
After seeing Archbishop Ellen take the lead, Archbishop Miga and Archbishop Salo no longer hesitated. They had only hesitated earlier for fear that the Pope would blame whoever takes the lead. Now that someone had taken the lead, there was no need for them to pretend any more.
After their conditions were discussed, the next steps were much simpler. Bella signed a contract with the three archbishops of the Radiant Church. The sort of ancient magic contract had almost no binding effect on Bella. She could either ignore the punishment effect of the contract by virtue of the Demon King’s power or directly overrule the process of the contract ceremony with her power as Demon G.o.d.
According to the consensus reached by both sides, Bella handed over the three crosses to Swordsman Cynthia to watch over them. The Radiant Church promised to abide by the agreement and wouldn’t force Holy Swordsman Cynthia and the four Holy Maiden to marry for political alliances. Bella temporarily added another request which was to promote the rescued Captain Mathilde to the Radiant Church’s Law Enforcement Team chief, to which the Archbishops agreed.
The accident that happened in the exploration of the Scripps Cemetery required a scapegoat so they could answer to the four giants of the underground dark forces of the human empires–the Eye of Darkness, the Blood Skull, the Horrorshow Group and the Skeleton Tower. The former chief of the Radiant Church’s Law Enforcement Team, Gralen, was made the fall guy and dismissed. Mathilde’s appointment letter would arrive soon.
The three Archbishops of the Radiant Church had pleased expressions on their faces, happy with the bargain they had just made. Bella was secretly pleased with herself too. These old foxes really thought they received a bargain but President Maria and the four Holy Maiden had long been involved with her. Swordsman Cynthia was also one of her own so placing the crosses of the first three generations of Light Popes in her custody was akin to keeping them herself.
“Then us old men won’t disturb you girls. We’ll leave first.”
After everything was settled, Archbishop Miga and his colleagues withdrew. Today happened to be St. Louis Church Academy’s rest day. They had to deal with the follow-up of the Scripps Cemetery. On their day off, President Maria and the others had nothing to do so they stayed at the Hausmann Hotel and rested for a day.
As part of the conditions they discussed, the Radiant Church had also allowed that President Maria and the four Holy Maidens’ move to Bella’s dormitory, Pure White Heaven, was in line with the church’s regulations. Archbishop Miga most probably intended to have the four Holy Maidens get closer to Bella. They didn’t know that the relations.h.i.+p between the four Holy Maidens and Bella had moved beyond a normal friends.h.i.+p.
The girls at the scene could guess what Bella wanted to do but their feet seemed to be pulled by some sort of mysterious magic so they couldn’t get out of here at all. Holy Maiden Hayley wanted to get up and leave, but Holy Maiden Daisy and Holy Maiden Susan held her from both sides, keeping her from leaving.
“Susan, Daisy, let me go now! Stop pulling me back... “
“Hayley, stop trying to run away by yourself! Bella, punish this girl first. She’s a bit out of line!”
“Glad to help. Let’s go! I’ll show you around my room.”
“Wait... Stop, I won’t go, I...”
“Hayley, are you going to...”
Holy Maiden Hayley was taken to Bella’s luxurious room by the other Holy Maidens. President Maria held Swordsman Cynthia’s hand as she gave her orders to enter the room on her authority as the successor to the Pope. Holy Maiden Hayley couldn’t protest so she kept quiet and behaved herself. She was surrounded by “traitors”, who made it too difficult for her to resist.
Today was a self-study day for the courses in the other branches of Olsylvia Academy so Bella’s absence would have no effect on her attendance. Anyway, she had her subst.i.tute body take her place in those formal cla.s.ses. If it weren’t an important course, such as the beautiful Dragon Knight Miss Ingrid’s cla.s.s, Bella usually wouldn’t attend them.
The northern area of Olsylvia Academy’s campus, the Filomena n.o.bility Academy, the central area of the Emerson Business District, the exclusive luxurious suite of the Rose Society’s Hausmann Hotel.
The fake pharaoh’s coffin containing the first generation Light Pope was leaning against the wall. The coffin lying next to it that was shaped like the coffin of Anubis, the ancient Egyptian G.o.d of Death, contained the fifth generation Light Pope Roxanne.
Goldsmith’s situation was different from Roxanne’s. She knew that the mysterious coffin with the appearance of a strange wolf-headed person beside her was holding the fifth generation Light Pope Roxanne. The power of the curse on Roxanne could be felt through the coffin despite the many seals.
Right now, Goldsmith even envied Roxanne, who was lying down. At least she couldn’t see anything at all. Bella had intentionally opened the two small openings at Goldsmith’s eye level to enable her to see the situation outside.
In the luxurious room, filled with the bewitching fragrance of girls, Bella had gathered the others to “play” here early in the morning. As soon as they entered the room, President Maria, Swordsman Cynthia and the four Holy Maidens, Hayley, Susan, Daisy and Sophia, of the Radiant Church had removed all their clothes at Bella’s request. Goldsmith was forced to watch all kinds of R-rated, shameful images afterwards.
At Bella’s invitation, Succubus Queen Aisha and Demon World Princess Diaz joined the fun midway. Kleina and Mathilde, who had been resting in bed, were forced into the “battlefield” for another round.
The entire room was filled with the ambiguous scenes of their entangling bodies. The beauties who were tired after fooling around had pa.s.sed out. Those who had collapsed from exhaustion were the Radiant Churches’ beauties. Demon World Princess Diaz and Succubus Queen Aisha had better physical strength than the average human. Unless Bella personally started playing with them, they would still be alright.
Holy Maiden Hayley’s hands and feet were pinned to the carpet by Holy Maiden Susan and Holy Maiden Sophia, on the left and right respectively. Holy Maiden Daisy was lying on top of her, igniting her body with kisses and caresses. Under the control of her fellow Holy Maidens, Hayley could only allow them to behave in such a way.
Captain Mathilde was entangled with Demon World Princess Diaz on the bed. G.o.d knows how the Chief of the Radiant Church’s Law Enforcement Team felt after being embraced by Princess Diaz. Anyway, she was currently unable to punish the princess for her “crimes.” Under the overwhelming kisses of Princess Diaz, Captain Mathilde could only moan in pleasure.
Kleina, daughter of the Skeleton Tower’s head, was the most unlucky. She had attracted Succubus Queen Aisha’s attention. The beautiful grey-haired girl had her hands tied behind her with red leather straps but her black blindfold had been removed. Succubus Queen Aisha placed her against the wall while she groped Kleina’s chest with one hand and shoved her fingers into Kleina’s mouth with the other.
Succubus Queen Aisha had successfully trained Kleina, as expected of a professional with techniques better than Bella’s. Bella was holding President Maria and Swordsman Cynthia in her arms. The two beautiful girls, who symbolized the main powers of the next generation of the Radiant Church, had collapsed beside Bella, their bodies twisted in an erotic posture.
Goldsmith already knew the ident.i.ties of the girls. Bella had deliberately asked Maria to introduce herself before the fun started. President Maria, who didn’t know there was anyone else in the room, readily agreed to Bella’s request.
“That woman is a Demon King... The top rungs of our church have fallen.”
Before Goldsmith could continue thinking, Bella walked up to the fake ancient Egyptian pharaoh coffin and opened it, pulling out Goldsmith who was wrapped in a white cloth. The cloth strips around Goldsmith were being rapidly removed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Before long, Goldsmith’s beautiful figure was revealed to Bella. Bella stared at Goldsmith with a meaningful look. Goldsmith could feel the danger in Bella’s eyes, the parts of her body swept by her eyes seemed to turn hot and extremely sensitive.
“What... what do you want? I’m... What are you doing with your hands?! You can’t touch me there...”
“Your Holiness Goldsmith, why are you still being so dishonest? You obviously want me, but you still deny it...”
“N-no way! Stop now! They’re all still here... “
Goldsmith, who had long been unable to hide her l.u.s.t, refused Bella as a final show of bravado. Bella knew that she wouldn’t last long. This simple first generation Light Pope had always been very conservative being influenced by abstinence in the Radiant Church. However, under the indirect “visual a.s.sault” given by the second generation Pope Aesop for 10,000 years, Goldsmith was already close to falling.
Bella wasn’t in a hurry to play with Goldsmith either. It was still morning so she had plenty of time to wait till Goldsmith gave in. Bella’s small hands rubbed and stroked Goldsmith’s sensitive spots, almost forcing moans out of Goldsmith’s lips.
“Are you sure? Goldsmith, you are no longer the Light Pope. The world only regards you as a legend. Just accept reality and your status as an ordinary girl.”
“No, I didn’t. I’m not... Don’t tempt me. I...”
“Well, I’ll tell them your ident.i.ty then!”
After hearing this, Goldsmith froze. She couldn’t let Maria and the others see her like this. President Maria and the others were busy being intimate with their companions and hadn’t noticed another beautiful girl in the room. Bella wouldn’t let go of such an interesting thing as invading the previous generation Light Pope, especially the first generation Light Pope, in front of the current Pope’s successor.
At last, Goldsmith gave up her last bit of resistance and loosened her clenched jaws. Bella took advantage of the opportunity to kiss Goldsmith’s lips and slid her sweet tongue within. Goldsmith had kept her first kiss for more than ten thousand years, but in the end she could not escape the fate of being taken. And it was a female Demon King who had taken away her first kiss!
Goldsmith shed glittering, translucent tears from the corner of her eyes, but she didn’t cry out loud. She was soon engulfed by the pleasant sensations that followed. Bella was an experienced lover and knew that at this time, the best way to comfort her was to let her sink into the pleasure.
In the courtyard outside the Hausmann Hotel, Bella’s strongest subordinate, Devastating Evil Dragon Emperor Lolita, was walking around with a small parasol. She was looking for any traces left by the mysterious visitors last night. At Lolita’s feet lay a large number of men in black who had been “killed” by her.
