The Sky Arena at the imperial city within Macnadix City, the capital of the Manasvir Empire. The Ogre General Adams and the G.o.d of Time Gaskell, who had attempted to take over the area, were instantly killed by the awakened Dark Warriors.
Due to them acting as the cannon fodder, Bella finally managed to get a clear look at the original dark forms of the six Dark Warriors around her. Back then, inside the bath, she had only seen a blurry reflection in the water. However, after the entire Sky Arena was placed into the Black and White Time Suspension, the Dark Warriors were forced to reveal their original forms.
Like Bella, Dark Warriors possessed their current bodies by preserving the original owners’ bodies while having another body for their original dark forms. That strange hourgla.s.s was a divine artifact that could immobilize all ent.i.ties within this dimension. However, it was useless against invaders from other dimensions. As their surrogate bodies were ent.i.ties of this world, they were affected by the artifact and were frozen in time.
However, as Bella and the others were interdimensional travelers, their original forms were not from this dimension. It meant that the hourgla.s.s’ effects did not work on them at all. Once they had transformed into their original dark forms, they easily broke free of the divine artifact’s influence.
Among all the Dark Warriors, Bella had interacted the most with the Demonic Dragon Emperor Alisha and the Myriad Sword Demon Krysan. Other than those two, this was the first time Bella was officially meeting the remaining four.
After taking on their dark forms, the Dark Warriors carried some form of dark sensuality. The a.s.sa.s.sin Noreya’s black hair was the deep crimson that reminded Bella of blood and her eyes were a matching shade of demonic red. Although her body did not change much, she clearly carried herself differently. She used to have the air of a cold-blooded killer. Now, she felt more like a killer demon filled with bloodl.u.s.t.
Beautiful, blood-red designs also appeared on the a.s.sa.s.sin Noreya’s pale white skin as she had changed into a suit of dark red a.s.sa.s.sin’s light armor. When she caught sight of Bella’s Demon G.o.d true form, Noreya nearly used the Backstab on her out of habit. Fortunately, the Demonic Dragon Emperor got there in time and stood between Noreya and Bella, allowing her to have some time to get accustomed to Bella’s new look.
Like Kriss, the Mage Ariel kept her long silver hair after going through her dark transformation, with the addition of some pink streaks. The most obvious change in her appearance was in her eyes. Inside her pink demonic pupils, special magical arrays in a five star formation and a hexagram appeared. This was a pair of extremely powerful eyes.
The eye with the five star formation was a Replicating Eye that had the magical ability to a.n.a.lyze and imitate all their opponent’s magical abilities immediately. The other demonic eye with the hexagram was a special one used to summon demonic beings. There was no limit to the demonic being’s powers. If needed, the eye would be able to summon even the World Destructor Demon G.o.ds and Evil G.o.ds as support.
In terms of outfits, Ariel was now dressed in dark pink mage’s robes. Like Kriss, she was dressed provocatively in an outfit that basically revealed her creamy white thighs and her stunning décolletage.
Ariel did not have any wings on her back. Instead, books were suspended in the air behind her. Those books were similar to Kriss’ precious swords and had some special sentience imbued within them. A book soul resided within each book that had the ability to fight in a battle.
The Puppet Master Elaine was already dark and was evil, even before her dark transformation. She had often done “bad things” together with Bella. After transforming into her dark form, Elaine still had long orange hair. However, she was now wearing a gothic style dress. Although it was not a loli type dress, it had its own unique appeal. Her orange demonic irises had the same magical arrays like the ones that appeared in Ariel’s eyes. The main difference was that unlike Ariel, who purely used them for summoning and replications, Elaine was more inclined to use them for more malicious purposes.
The Priest Isaman, whom Bella was currently holding on to, had the greatest transformation. Her outfit’s style had changed from priest robes into the image of an imperial consort as she was now wearing a black evening gown made out of an extremely light fabric. Her usual long violet hair had darkened into a deep, rich purple. Her blue demonic irises almost seemed to have the ability to see a person’s different reincarnations. In her eyes, Bella could almost see images of her surrogate, Princess Felia’s life, when she was still alive.
Isaman and Bella were still holding hands. However, as their hands were both ice cold, Bella did not think that there was anything intimate about their behavior. When the others saw Bella’s Demon G.o.d’s true form, they began to gather around her. For a moment, none of them knew how to react.
Other than Kriss, who had “snuck off,” the other Dark Warriors had no clue that Bella was actually a Demon G.o.d of the World Destructor Camp instead of a Demon King. Bella, the Demon G.o.d Angel and the Evil G.o.d Mia were such good actors that none of her close friends had suspected anything at all.
The Demon G.o.ds and the Dark Warriors were not from the same camp as their level of combat powers differed significantly. Even the most powerful Dark Warriors would not be able to surpa.s.s the top twenty-five Demon G.o.ds or Evil G.o.ds of the World Destructor’s Camp. Bella was currently ranked fourth, which meant that there was an immense difference in power.
This made the other Dark Warrior girls rather nervous. The change in ident.i.ty had happened too quickly as they could not get used to it. Luckily, Bella was adept at breaking awkward silences like this. She quickly used an erotic topic to diffuse the tension as she noticed a common similarity among the Dark Warriors.
“Say, why are you all bare inside? Seriously, I’m still Bella, don’t be so uptight!”
“Demon G.o.d... Bella, your point of focus is still... Well, it’s for the same reasons you World Destructors have.”
“Bella, you will understand why after you have transformed into your Demon G.o.d state. Your Holiness, what do you plan to do now?”
Bella’s usual teasing words quickly bridged the gap between both sides. She could not help but comment on the obvious lack of underwear among the Dark Warriors. Otherwise, it would constantly bug her. Unfortunately, none of the Dark Warriors gave her a direct answer. Instead, they merely indicated that Bella would eventually understand.
With Ariel’s explanation, Bella finally understood that although the Dark Warriors and World Destructors were both dark and evil by nature, they were of different camps as their powers would clash. If they were not in any special contract with Bella after fully transforming, their energies would clash and undoubtedly affect their battle performance.
“Well, Older Sisters, why don’t we enter into a Treason Contract? This will solve all our problems.”
“A Treason Contract? You need all three camps to be present. At this point, where can we find... Erm, the two of you!”
The Mage Ariel, post dark transformation, was aware of the existence of this G.o.dless contract. According to legend, Savior Warriors, who had been corrupted or turned dark, had one opportunity to enter into a contract with a Demon G.o.d or Evil G.o.d of the World Destructor Camp. They would change their religion and pledge their allegiance to the Demon G.o.d instead.
This contract was limited to those who had traveled from another dimension. Other than a Demon G.o.d or an Evil G.o.d, a Chaos Bringer had to be present as a witness and underwriter to the contract. If not, the contract would not be valid. Inside the Sky Arena, only the Demon G.o.d Bella and the Dark Warriors were present. Where were they going to find a Chaos Bringer? The only ones who fulfilled the requirements were the Time s.p.a.ce Magic Demon Noesha and the Poison Origin Betty. However, they were currently commanding the battle at the Christian Hotel in the east and would not be able to make it here in time.
It was only until she heard the “pseudo-loli” Charlotte’s voice that Bella noticed two people seated at a remote corner of the spectator stands. They were the “pseudo-loli” Charlotte and the “pseudo-shota” Demir who were currently snacking on sweets as they watched the situation unfold. From the beginning, neither of them had been affected by the hourgla.s.s. However, they did not go through any unusual changes. The only difference was a strange energy that rippled behind them.
Actually, both Charlotte and Demir were ent.i.ties of the Chaos Bringers. The only problem was that they clearly got their priorities wrong. Instead of disrupting the world and creating chaos, they chose to focus on the weird interest of crossdressing. As they had hidden their abilities extremely well, even their comrades from the Chaos Bringer Camp, the Time s.p.a.ce Magic Demon Noesha and the Poison Origin Betty had no idea that they were allies. There was no way Bella could have known either.
Bella had to admit that those two were the real “movie kings” as she could not determine their background. In a flash, Charlotte and Demir s.h.i.+fted from the Sky Arena’s spectator stands and appeared right in front of Bella without causing a single ripple of energy. To show that they did not mean any enmity or have any intention of creating chaos, those two Chaos Bringers had taken away their own powers and seemed just like normal Humans.
“Chairman Charlotte, you... you’ve hidden it extremely well!”
“Older Sister Bella, Demir and I do not specialize in combat. In fact, there are so many ways to create chaos! Violence is not the only way. This is the main difference between the Chaos Bringers and World Destructors. Not all of us are like Noesha and Betty. Anyway, I think I’ve gone on a tangent. Let’s get down to business!”
Bella was still rather suspicious. Could this be why Charlotte was always dressed in female clothes and was more feminine than most women? Although, there was a definite possibility that cross-dressing as a female could bring chaos to the world. As for their powers, Charlotte and Demir refused to comment. There was nothing Bella could do but to let it go. However, with the presence of these two Chaos Bringers, they could act as a witness to the special contract, making it valid. It was all Bella cared about for now as she had turned a blind eye to everything else for now.
However, when the contract was mentioned, a few of the Dark Warriors had hesitated. The Treason Contract was similar to a follower contract. Once they declared their allegiance to a certain Demon G.o.d or Evil G.o.d, they would automatically change positions. Instead of being Dark Warriors, they would be considered “Renegades,” which was one of the few mutated positions of the Savior Camp. It was said that the first Renegade had fallen in love with a certain Demon G.o.d from the World Destructor Camp and had chosen to turn her back on her comrades and walk the path of the Renegade.
Once the contract was established, the Demon G.o.d would gain access to the Renegade’s true names and background. Simultaneously, the Renegades would gain some of the Demon G.o.d’s powers, which was similar to the relations.h.i.+p between the Creator G.o.d and their interdimensional-traveling Saviors. It was equivalent to revealing everything about their past and all their secrets. It was not surprising that some of them might have some reservations.
The Demonic Dragon Emperor Alisha and the Myriad Sword Demon Krysan did not have any objections to this. As they were Bella’s adopted little sister and girlfriend respectively, Bella had already known their true names and their Golden Fingers. It did not bother them that they would have to reveal more information. The other four were the ones who hesitated. However, it did not take long before the Mage Ariel “defected” and agreed to sign the Treason Contract with Bella. It was likely that since Kriss did not hesitate at all, she decided that it was fine to follow suit as well.
Fortunately, Charlotte had acted as a “mediator” and managed to a.s.suage their considerations in time. Soon enough, the other three had agreed to enter into the contract as well. They had made some modifications to the contract as Bella agreed that she would not ask for their true name until they were willing to tell her. On the other hand, Kriss, Ariel and her little sister Lisha had agreed to the original terms of the contract and allowed Bella to gain knowledge of their true names and past.
With the Chaos Bringers Charlotte and Demir as witnesses, the Demon G.o.d Samantha, also known as Bella, signed the Treason Contract with the six Dark Warriors. According to the contract, these few Dark Warriors were now Renegades and were officially Bella’s followers. This follower structure was similar to a certain “Cup Battle” as the followers acted out of “Forced Servitude.” The only difference was that the owners would not be a match for most of their followers, while Bella could easily suppress hers. It meant that she did not need to cast any of those restrictive magic on them at all.
In a flash of black light, Bella successfully obtained the true name of a third Dark Warrior. Mage Ariel’s true name was the Demon Gate Lordress Arifiels. Now that she knew her true name, her past was revealed as well. Previously, when Lordress Arifiels had traveled, she was a Magical Sage. However, she had used evil magic to defeat the Demon Kings. This caused her comrades to be suspicious of her as she lost the trust of the empire she had saved.
After she had gotten rid of the Demon King, Ariel was then betrayed by her comrades who banded together to send her into prison. In the end, Ariel could not endure it anymore and turned fully dark. Within one night, she destroyed the empire that she had once saved and slaughtered her former comrades. Since then, she had walked the path of the Dark Warrior.
Compared to the Demonic Dragon Emperor Alisha and the Myriad Sword Demon Krysan, the Demon Gate Lordress Arifiels’ past few incarnations had gone through many extremely dark experiences. Since then, she had never believed in friends.h.i.+p until she met Bella, who had mistaken her for Kriss. She then finally opened up her heart and interacted with Bella and Kriss. Soon enough, her circle of friends gradually began to grow.
Other than Ariel, the other three Dark Warriors had become Renegades as well. However, Bella still had no idea what their true names were and knew nothing about their past because of their agreement. The only way she could find out this information was to chip away at them slowly. Otherwise, Bella still had the “Forced Servitude” to fall back on. No matter what, they would eventually cave.
Once they were done signing the contract, Bella used one of the puppets that Charlotte had previously given her to act as one of her surrogates, the Dragon Mage Baize. The fake Baize would remain behind to provide the illusion that she was still within the Sky Arena. After instructing Charlotte and Demir to help guard the Sky Arena, Bella left the area with the other Renegades to hunt down the mastermind within the imperial city.
The mastermind Creator G.o.d was similar to the Divine Creator G.o.d whom Bella had fought against previously. Neither of them was from this dimensional world. There was a definite possibility that they had arrived by using a Human’s body as a proxy. Since this was not their original form, there was a chance that they could chase that Creator G.o.d back to where it came from by killing the body that it was currently residing.
Bella decided not to split up this time and concentrated all her forces to end this battle once and for all. She was a Demon G.o.d with six Renegades, and there was only one Creator G.o.d, which meant that the odds were in their favor.
That evil Creator G.o.d still had not realized that his subordinates had already been killed. Bella had deliberately chosen not to destroy the hourgla.s.s, allowing the Underworld Creator G.o.d to have the impression that his two subordinates were doing fine and were merely taking their time. At the moment, he was busy directing his demonic beings to fight against the Abyss Demonic Beings that were advancing from the west. It meant that he did not have time to monitor the situation within the Sky Arena.
Inside the imperial city, a fight to the death without a good or bad side was about to commence. Bella was leading her team of Renegades to attack that evil Creator G.o.d. Her plan did not include any of the official Saviors at all. When the battle first began, the G.o.d Chosen Knight Scott and the other male Saviors had been lured to a different region by the Underworld Creator G.o.d’s lies and would miss out on this “Dark Party.”
The entire capital had now become the location of the Demonic Beings’ melee. The residents of Macnadix City were all hidden within their houses, terrified. The skies and streets were filled with demonic beings tearing at each other’s throats. Right now, it was still daylight, yet the demonic beings were already acting in such an insane manner. The usually awe-inspiring Imperial Guards had fled as no one knew where they were hiding. The scene almost seemed like a chaotic gang fight where the police were too frightened to do anything.
As Macnadix City residents could not understand the demonic beings’ camp insignias and flags, they obviously could not differentiate between the fighting demonic beings. Regardless, they knew that no matter what, those demonic beings were not friendly towards Humans. Every single teleportation array within the city had been destroyed by the Demonic Being army that had been controlling the city. Now, the entire capital was an isolated city, as more than ten million residents were now trapped. There was no way they could escape as they had no idea what else they could do aside from waiting for death like sitting ducks.
Justice may be late, but it would never be absent. To Bella, the traditional male Saviors that represented justice were not involved in this battle. Since justice could be late, in the end, the only one who could end evil was another evil.
