On the Beastmen Continent Sacred River’s far shore, Terror Demon King Griffin and Bone Demon King Trollope stood in front of a summoning array. The two Demon Kings bore awkward expressions; the Demon God Summoning Ritual was motionless.

Behind them were large numbers of wizards stood with their heads bowed. They wanted to laugh, yet were too scared to laugh; the scene was extremely awkward. The dark summoning ritual had failed. It was the first time they had seen their demon king pretend to fail.

“You guys... you guys take a break! The Lord is temporarily too busy to come.”

Hearing Trollope’s words, the wizards let out a collective sigh of relief. If they had to keep suppressing their laughter, they might have received internal injuries! They quickly retreated, and soon only Trollope and Griffin were left in the Summoning Hall.

“What do you think, brother? I’m confused. Someone even interfered with the Demon King Summoning Ritual... It couldn’t be the same mysterious Demon Kings that fought us for the Demon King Passage last time, right? Did that boss lady sell off the summoning ritual array to someone else?”

“Brother, I think it’s time to talk to Victoria. We brothers are trying to perform this ritual behind her back isn’t too good!”

“No, that girl is too lazy. Real talk, I don’t trust those female demon kings. Let’s just do this by ourselves; we don’t have to rely on those girls.”

Trollope didn’t overthink about Griffin’s response and agreed, mostly due to Griffin’s seeming confidence. Besides Sea Demon King, there were still the Demon King of Death and the Demon King of Night nearby.

Due to Terror Demon King Griffin’s blind confidence, Trollope didn’t contact the Demon Kings of Death and Night. Those two were females, just like Sea Demon King Victoria. Griffin’s misjudgment caused them, who had boasted an advantage initially in numbers, actually to have two less combatants than Bella’s side.

The Demon Kings of Death and Night were preparing to come to this side of the Sacred River to inspect the battle situation. They would have easily been able to help on the way. Unfortunately, Griffin rejected them before even seeing them.

After seeing Sea Demon King Victoria’s laziness, Griffin lost his trust in those female demon kings. He had already received news of the defeat at Harvey Plains, but he didn’t pay it much attention.

Wolfmen, Tigermen, Lionmen, and Leopardmen, among the eight different Beastmen tribes, were lower class tribes. They couldn’t even compare to the tribes on the other side of the Sacred River, and giving up on them wasn’t even necessarily a bad thing. If it weren’t for the Dark Humans requiring all of them to work together, the demon kings would have sacrificed a portion of the Beastmen tribes.

Humans were like this; even the Dark Humans wouldn’t forget their original nature. They liked to use various sinister tactics. Demon King Griffin disliked such underhanded tactics and, as a result, looked down on humans as a whole.

In a hidden pavilion near the Sacred River, the Demon God’s Summoning Gate opened wide, and Bella stepped through, covered head to toe in a suit of black armor. Behind her streamed six illusory black wings. These wings were a present from Dark Demon God Alice, a specialized flying magic tool.

“What is this smell, so stinky. Is this a toilet?! Eh... This is...”

Before she could even steady her feet, several black tentacles wrapped around her feet and tried to trip her over. Bella had seen a lot of movies in her past lives and could efficiently deal with sudden ambushes like these. She unsheathed the Great Evil Slaying Sword and, in a flurry of blows, left the black tentacles in pieces.

The black tentacles were terrified of the sword in Bella’s hand and no longer attacked. Dozens of black tentacles hovered several meters away from Bella, setting an eerie scene. The severed tentacles spurted out green blood while Bella dodged away, avoiding the poisonous liquid.

The green blood splattered onto the floorboards, causing a surge of white fog to rise; it looked as if someone had splashed sulfuric acid onto the ground. Bella realized that these tentacles wanted to steal away the teleport gate behind her; this was the passage by which demons arrived in this world.

“You want to flee, that won’t be easy! You tried to sacrifice the Demon King to these tentacles; you’re far too brave.”

Bella was the type who would repay all grudges and find trouble where there was no trouble. As the Demon King, Bella forcibly closed the Gate of the Demon God.

After discovering that the gate had been closed, the black tentacles stopped caring about the danger of the Great Evil Slaying Sword and attacked Bella from all directions. However, their attacks were all stopped cold on a dark golden barrier two meters away.

It was the signature move of the Holy Knight, “Holy Guard.” When used by a demon king, it became “Sin Guard,” and the color changed to a dark golden color. As blocked outside of the dark golden barrier, the tentacles couldn’t advance at all.

“This is disgusting, disappear for me!”

Bella moved her arms to form an X in front of her chest, and her body began emitting black-colored energy. This darkness energy formed into countless knife edges and diced all of the tentacles into pieces. This “Black Cut” was one of the signature moves of the Demon King.

After this round of killer moves, the black colored tentacles’ true body appeared. It was a humanoid figure, two meters tall, and wore a black cloak.

However, this thing didn’t have a face at all. The black cloak didn’t cover its face, and instead of a face, there was only a dark hole from which the tentacles emerged. It was extremely disgusting to look at.

“Who exactly are you... a demon king’s strength doesn’t respond that fast unless you are...”

“You disgusting fellow, you should state your own name first before asking for someone else’s name! You don’t even know these simple manners!”

“This Deity is Abyss Demon King Brewster, I am... S***, you demon wench would actually sneak-attack me, this is...”

Brewster’s coarse voice made Bella feel extremely uncomfortable. Without a thought, she took advantage, while the tentacle monster was introducing itself, she attacked. Bella used a very underhanded method of attack; she used the Creator of Light’s gift, the “Praise of Light,” like a snowball, and launched it straight into Brewster’s face.

Brewster’s face was already a dark hole, after being attacked with a light treasure, it was as if his body was bathed in light energy. The killing power of this attack was extraordinary. The tentacle monster instantly received critical damage. The hovering tentacles all fell limply to the ground.

“You... wench, this energy is... Honored Miss, please take back this orb, we... we can always have a peaceful discussion!”

“My apologies, I don’t like ugly demons. Goodbye, in the next life, make sure you get plastic surgery before you go outside!”

“Wait... I surrender, I... how hateful... you... wench...”

Bella wielded the Great Evil Slaying Sword as if it were javelin and threw it. The sword transformed into a white light and pierced straight through Abyss Demon King Brewster’s chest and nailed him dead against the wall.

Under the twin assault of the “Praise of Light” and the Great Evil Slaying Sword, Brewster quickly perished. His death was too pathetic, if he was up against a demon king or demon god, at least he would’ve been able to escape.

Unluckily, Bella never attacked according to the convention. She carried the Savior’s Great Evil Slaying Sword and the Creator of Light’s treasure; this was already an ultimate cheat. Added to the fact that Bella used an underhanded sneak attack, Brewster ended up defenseless and died nailed to a wall.

Brewster’s final insults died on his lips, his coarse voice unable to finish his words. In a burst of light, his body transformed into a pool of foul water and gradually dissolved into the wall.

With a slight shattering sound, the demonic beast’s core shattered like a glass marble. With Brewster’s core in pieces, the demon king had no hope of resurrecting.

It was a shame about this demonic core, though. If she were able to feed it to one of her underlings, their power could have significantly expanded. On the other hand, Bella was planning to gift it to Succubus Queen Aisha anyways.

Also, demonic cores could transfer their original owner’s abilities to their new owner. If Aisha somehow inherited that tentacle ability, that would be a disaster. No matter what, Bella couldn’t stand tentacles, it was better that Brewster was dead.

After taking care of the boss, Bella retrieved the Great Evil Slaying Sword and the Praise of Light and falling into old habits, and began searching for loot. Even though this world wasn’t a game, loot still existed.

This room was only a small corner of the palace. After pushing open the door, Bella came to the main hall of the palace. It was the main room where summoning rituals were performed, and in the center of the room, Bella could see a dark red colored summoning array. Besides this summoning array, Bella finally saw the main culprit behind the summoning ritual.

Dark Princess Elsa was the originator of this time’s summons. However, her current appearance was rather pitiful. She was bound by all fours with black tentacles and was hanging upside down from the ceiling. All of her clothes had long dissolved from the venom, and it looked like the tentacles had nearly raped her.

Due to the death of Brewster, the black tentacles here had stopped moving. A thick, strong tentacle was poised motionless right next to her “critical spot,” less than half a meter away. If Bella had arrived any later, Dark Princess Elsa might have lost her virginity to the tentacle.

There was also a small tentacle next to her mouth, and it was also stopped half a meter away. Clearly, this tentacle was just about to enter her mouth. Besides Elsa, there were too many other dark witches scattered throughout the hall. They were all bound and naked, on the verge of being violated by tentacles.

Thanks to Brewster’s death, this group of witches luckily avoided the worst. There was a lot of corpse water spread across the floor, and judging by the remains, looked as if they belonged to humans. There were also Black Robed Wizards in the summoning ritual, but the black tentacles had already consumed them. Judging from their value in repeated uses, Brewster did not find them as valuable as the witches and decided to consume them simply.

“Brewster, you really were an old gentleman. My apologies, I killed you too quickly, I should’ve left your corpse whole.”

Brewster’s gentlemanly manner moved Bella, therefore, she decided to destroy all of the remaining tentacles. Seeing Bella turn away, Elsa became desperate. To her, these tentacles had suddenly stopped, who knew when they would start moving again!

If the tentacles started moving again and continued where they left off, then her situation would become genuinely tragic. Dark Humans, unless a stronger demon absorbed them, were immortal. If she couldn’t die, then she would end up being played with by these tentacles forever, thinking of such a situation made Elsa’s face turn pale, and her deep blue eyes filled with panic.

“Lord Demon King, don’t leave! Please rescue me first. I’m very uncomfortable like this!”

“Nope, you weren’t the one who summoned me, this ritual is different from the one I gave you. You summoned these black... Forget it. I’ll stop bothering you and him...”

“No... Lord Demon King, I was wrong. Could you please save me! Big sister Erica is investigating the frontlines. I did this behind her back. If she comes back and finds out, she’ll ground me!”

“You just sit around for a bit and think about what benefits you can give me. If there’s nothing in it for me, I won’t do it.”

Bella turned around and returned to the room she had arrived in. Shortly after, she came back out, looking a bit awkward. She had forgotten that she had already closed the Demon God Passage.

“Are you crying? Princess Elsa...”

“N-no... Who’s crying, don’t say random things, Lord Demon King!”

“Then the tears on your face are...”

“This... This is sand that got into my eye, I really... really didn’t cry!”

Bella flapped her wings and rose to the ceiling, reaching out to cup Elsa’s soft chin. This Dark Princess’ beautiful face had very obvious tear tracks. She was undoubtedly proud enough; even with such undeniable evidence, she still refused to admit to crying. Bella almost wanted to make her cry for real.

Elsa understood the rules, after promising an enormous reward, Bella finally reluctantly let her down. Brewster had tied them in positions that were too... professional. They were comparable to the CG images found in the adult games of a certain island country. When Bella had first entered the room, she had almost thought that she had come into the wrong world and entered the world of an adult game.

“Lord Demon King, can we change this last condition? A master-servant contract sounds like...”

“No changes, what are you afraid of! I can’t do anything to you. I’m merely in need of a maidservant. I just wanted to recruit a cute, long-lived maid like you!”

“This... could you wait until I ask my big sister? We’re very close, and I’d like to ask for her opinion on this.”

“Fine... Princess Elsa, then put this necklace on. I’ll save you after you put it on.”

Elsa, to quickly escape the black tentacles gasp, agreed. She let Bella place the black skull necklace over her neck. This necklace was known as the “Black Heartbeat;” unknown to Elsa, this necklace possessed a destruction mechanism. Bella was planning to use her as a hostage should the need arise in the future.

As for Princess Erica’s opinion, Bella didn’t care. She wasn’t planning on missing out on this Dark Human princess’ sister either. Collecting sisters was one of Bella’s dark desires; Erica would only be a matter of time.

The dark humans likely built this location on this side of the Sacred River as a defensive stronghold. To Bella, this was the heart of the enemy territory. She didn’t know if there were any other strong enemies, only counting the Twelve Demon Kings, there were two here, and they were males as well. This would be a problem.

Right as Bella helped Elsa down, a storm of frantic knocking rang from the door. Earlier, to maintain the secrecy of the summoning ritual, Elsa had locked the doors.

“Elsa, what are you doing? Why did you lock the door! You aren’t doing strange things behind my back, are you?”

“Uh... Big sister, I... I haven’t done anything, stop making wild guesses!”

“Nothing? If there’s nothing, then why did you lock the door! Hurry up and open the door.”

Dark Princess Erica had returned; this timing left Elsa feeling awkward. With her current situation, who would believe that nothing had happened! The other dark witches were still tentacle-bound and scattered throughout the room. If Erica saw this, she would give Elsa a harsh scolding.

Elsa held tightly onto Bella’s right hand, giving her puppy eyes. Right now, only Bella could help her, the other witches were incapacitated, and the wizards were long dead and dissolved.

Elsa’s expression gave Bella a sense of intimacy that made her feel complicated. With the return of Erica, this was like being caught cheating by the “husband.” It was Bella’s first time in this kind of situation.

At this point, a mere explanation wouldn’t be able to solve the problem. Although the Demon God Passage used to summon Brewster was already closed, the remaining tentacles would be difficult to explain.

Erica was waiting impatiently outside the main hall. She had given her keys to Elsa for safekeeping, and they should be within the main hall. Earlier during her scouting mission, there had been an accident, and her clothes had gotten dirty.

Now, Erica wanted to go back to her room to change, but without the key to the main hall, she couldn’t get to her room. It left her feeling awkward; after all, as a Dark Princess, she couldn’t wear dirty clothes in public, that would affect the image of a Dark Princess too much!
