The Alessandra Academy’s Eiffel Hotel located in the central region of the Emerson Business District within the Filomena Nobility Academy at the northern campus of the Olsylvia Academy. Bella was currently moving on the dancefloor with Princess Kriss. The guests of the other exotic races around them did not bother them as they were engrossed in their own dance partners.

As she stood close to Kriss, Bella realized that there was something different about her. Kriss’ hair was still a silvery-white, but her eyes seemed to have become a deeper violet color. Hints of violet could be found in her hair, and it glimmered as she moved. No matter how rugged she looked, Kriss’ face was still absolutely gorgeous. However, those subtle differences could not escape Bella’s eyes.

Kriss had gone commando and did not wear any undergarments inside her pure white ball gown. Standing in front of her, Bella could see everything.

“What are you looking at? Older Sister, how are you related to Bella... she would not hand over her storage ring to any outsider.”

“I... You aren’t Kriss either. Your presence is different...”

“We are one and the same. But you... could it be that you are the Demon God who gave Older Sister Bella her Demon King powers?”

Out of habit, Bella had used the Demon language to communicate with Kriss. The fact that Kriss had been able to reply in the same language meant that her dark side was an entity that was similar to a Demon King. Bella was still hesitant to tell Kriss the truth for now. Other than the Great Evil God Mia, Demon God Angel, and the Interdimensional Illusion Demon Noesha, no one else knew of Bella’s true identity.

However, based on her short introduction, Kriss was clearly mistaken and thought that Bella was the Demon God that gifted her surrogate, Princess Felia, her Demon King powers. Bella did not argue against it either as it did not feel like it was the right time to reveal her identity to Kriss.

“Head over to that room later, I will tell you the truth then.”

Kriss hesitated for a moment and decided to tell Bella the truth. When they were done with the dance, the pair left for a secret location. Kriss held onto Bella and walked towards the room that she had reserved inside the Eiffel Hotel. Lolita, who had arrived with Bella, would be remaining behind to await further instructions. She noticed that Kriss was rather guarded. However, once Lolita realized that Kriss did not have any ill intent behind holding Bella’s hand, she continued to enjoy her drink.

Inside one of the Eiffel Hotel’s regular lounges, Bella was seated face to face with Kriss. As proof of her sincerity, Kriss told her everything about her identity as the Myriad Sword Demon Krysan, also known as the legendary Fallen Sword Demoness. She used to be one of the most powerful warriors around. However, during the final hunt for Demon Kings, she was left with no choice but to kill her companion, the Demon Queen of the Sword Claudia.

As they had been partners in the exploration team, the Demon Queen Claudia had impersonated a warrior in an attempt to make use of the human’s most powerful swordsman, Kriss, to eradicate the previous Demon King of the Sword Claude who had stolen her throne. When she died at Kriss’ hand, she had been named as a traitor who had been in cahoots with the Demon Kings by the humans in that dimension.

After that, Kriss decided to betray the entire human race of that world and went on a rampage, killing everyone in her way until no one was left alive. Krysan did not speak about her experience in detail, probably in fear of recalling her dark history. The Golden Finger, as well as the multitude of precious swords that Bella had seen inside Kriss’ sword space, were trophies that the Myriad Sword Demon Krysan had collected from those Demon Kings who had died by her hands.

Bella did not pry either as she herself was holding back quite a bit of information as well, such as the fact that she was an interdimensional traveler from Earth. Kriss’ abilities were on par with the Demonic Dragon Emperor Alisha, who had gone through a few reincarnations. There was no reason why Kriss would not have reincarnated on Earth either. She was also familiar with many of the items that Bella had brought from Earth and did not seem like it was her first time encountering those objects.

“You’re allowing me to keep addressing you as Bella... seriously, you’re a Demon God who is temporarily taking possession of her body after all. Oh well, I’m fine with calling you Bella, as long as Your Godliness does not take offense.”

“It’s not a big deal if I tell you... the reason why I’m here is for the petals of the Flower Fairy Race’s Mable Flower.”

The Myriad Sword Demon Krysan’s reasons for obtaining the Mable Flower’s Petal was not what Bella expected. Legend has it, the Mable Flower’s Petal was the Love God Mable’s gift to the Flower Fairy Race. Anyone who possessed the petal would simply have to scatter the petals into a bath that they would share with the person they love, and both parties would fall in love, regardless of gender.

After Kriss accepted Bella’s confession of love, she continued to watch as Bella continued to surround herself with many more beautiful girls and began to feel that her status as her “official girlfriend” was being threatened. When she heard about this folk prescription, it was not convenient for her to come as Princess Kriss. She had no choice but to use her Dark Transformation to seek out the Mable Flower’s Petal on her behalf.

Bella was so touched by Kriss’ gesture that she almost revealed her true identity. Kriss actually fancied her, she just did not know how to express it. It was her fault. She must have neglected Kriss recently, causing her to worry.

However, Kriss’ operation had not been smooth sailing at all. Based on her ability, it would not be difficult for her to break into the treasure vault level of the Eiffel Hotel. The problem was that there was a ridiculous amount of people who wished to steal the Mable Flower’s Petal. Moreover, those people were just as powerful as she was, which complicated things.

Not many had the ability to be on par with the Myriad Sword Demon Krysan. Based on Bella’s memory, the only one who she knew could be a match for Krysan in a fight was her younger sister Lisha’s Dark Transformation, the Demonic Dragon Emperor Alisha. Other than the Mable Flower’s Petal, the top floor of the Eiffel Hotel was rumored to be the hiding place of the Fairy Race’s new batch of treasures.

“Krysan, would you like me to give you a hand?”

“Your Godliness, there’s no need for you to worry. If you were to interfere, there may be a possibility that it would attract the attention of many other Demon Gods. Please do not tell the real Bella about this! Please, Your Godliness.”

In the end, the Myriad Sword Demon Krysan politely declined the Holy Demon God Bella’s request to help. She did not wish for Bella to interfere as she wanted to obtain the Mable Flower’s Petal with her own abilities. As it was not Bella’s place to force her into forming a team, she could only watch as Krysan walked away from her. However, Bella managed to obtain more accurate information about the Flower Fairy Princess Luluxia’s location. The princess was in the Eiffel Hotel’s ninth floor, room number six.

This information could not have come at a better time. Krysan had only mentioned it offhandedly, but Bella already took note of it. Anyway, Bella’s main reason for being here was to look for Kriss. Since she found her and ensured that she was fine, Bella had easily accomplished her mission. The other reason was to capture the Flower Fairy Princess Luluxia, who had escaped previously and to bring her back to her own hotel where the princess would have a nice reunion with the Dark Elf Princess Camille. By then, she would be able to breach Princess Camille’s mental defenses more easily.

Soon after Krysan left, Bella walked out of the room as well. She needed to find the sly Flower Fairy Princess Luluxia as soon as possible before the princess found another way to escape.

This time, Bella had openly infiltrated the Eiffel Hotel as a solo operation. The hotel had nine floors, excluding the legendary mysterious tenth floor, which was apparently defunct. According to the staff at the Eiffel Hotel, the tenth floor was designed and built with the intention of allowing guests to stay. However, due to some unknown reason, it was sealed off to the public.

The rumors of the existence of various Fairy treasures, including the Mable Flower’s Petal, all pointed towards this mysterious tenth floor. Based on her own experience, Bella suspected that someone had planted traps to attract prey to their deaths on the tenth floor. The higher Bella went, the fewer people she saw.

From the seventh floor onwards, the beautiful Dark Elven maidens who worked as maids were nowhere to be seen. When Bella arrived on the ninth floor, she did not see a guest at all, let alone a servant. She began to suspect if Krysan had given her false information. She was dressed in an elegant black gown and emanated the unique aura of a Demon God. As she roamed around, no one dared to stop her.

The luxury suites on the ninth floor of the Eiffel Hotel were reserved for the hotel’s important guests. Most of the high-class hotels in this Other World preferred to place their luxury suites on the top floor. Bella’s Hausmann Hotel and the Eiffel Hotel were no exception.

However, Bella was getting a little dizzy. The room numbers here were not arranged in any particular order. It was so random that there was a big difference between the room numbers of adjacent rooms. Furthermore, Bella found two rooms that were numbered room six, and she did not know which one to choose.

Those two luxury suites that had the same room number had been placed next to each other. One of the number plates on the original room number nine had broken off due to a strange rumbling from the tenth floor earlier, inexplicably causing the digit nine to look like a six instead. Bella could not openly knock on the doors, either. She could only take her chances and pick one of the luxury suites and hope for the best.

There were no staircases that led to the tenth floor of the Eiffel Hotel. Bella circled the ninth floor of the hotel and did not find a stairwell at all. After going back and forth a few times, Bella once again returned to the two luxury suites with the same room number.

Bella did not wash her face before coming out and could only depend on her personality now. When she used her surrogate, Princess Felia’s body, she had been rather unlucky. This time, she was using her original form as a Demon God. Hopefully, she would have a bit more luck. Bella reached out, grabbed the doorknob of the door on her left, and realized that it was not locked. It seemed like using a different body had been a good idea.

At the skies above the Eiffel Hotel, the Myriad Sword Demon Krysan was dressed in silver armor and was surrounded by many swords. She was accompanied by her temporary partner, the black-haired and golden-eyed Demonic Dragon Emperor Alisha. Right now, Alisha was in her Dark Transformative state as well. When Bella was not around, Lisha and Kriss had gotten rather close as their original forms were already acquainted.

“Demonic Dragon Emperor, you’re here. Tonight will be crucial... I must obtain the Mable Flower’s Petals... I hope you will be able to help me.”

“Myriad Sword Demon, don’t be such a stranger! Just call me Lisha, and I’ll do the same and use Kriss to address you instead. However, once we succeed, I want a share of Mable Flower’s petals! You aren’t the only one who desires those petals...”

“Dragon... I mean, Lisha, you’re Bella’s younger sister after all, why don’t you let me...”

“We aren’t even biological siblings... Older Sister Kriss, I met Bella much earlier than you did!”

“We have to get our hands on the Mable Flower’s petals before Bella returns to the dorm. By the way, aren’t you still supposed to be at President Isaman’s princess networking event? Wouldn’t Ariel and the others realize that you’re gone? The event would only end tomorrow morning.”

“It won’t be a problem. Ariel and the others had fallen asleep much earlier. No one noticed anything when I slipped out... Hey, a troublemaker has arrived.”

In the distance, Kriss and Lisha saw two phantoms, shrouded in darkness, drifting towards them along with the wind. Both seemed to be part of the same team. They looked as though they were rather powerful and were mainly of the magical profession. When both sides met, they did not bother with small talk and immediately launched into various attacks while remaining suspended in the air.

A solitary phantom stood on one of the balconies on the Eiffel Hotel’s ninth floor and quietly observed the battle in the skies. There was a mysterious invisible barrier that separated the hotel from the eighth floor onwards. This meant that no matter how much noise the battle in the skies generated, it would not travel outside the barrier. The guests and staff in the hotel would have no idea that a battle was happening above them at all.

Similarly, due to this special barrier, the pedestrians around the Eiffel Hotel would not be able to see the melee that was occurring in the skies. President Isaman of the Euphemia Imperial Academy had appeared behind that solitary phantom. A black colored, lightning type energy buzzed around President Isaman, which meant that she must have been in a dark transformative state as well.

“Bone Burier, aren’t you going to join in the fun up there?”

“Underworld Queen, look at the atmosphere around you. With such a special barrier, this area has turned darker than night, and you can’t even see the face of the person next to you. Plus, there’s that Demonic Dragon Emperor, Myriad Sword Demon, the Demon Gate Lordress, and either way, I do not enjoy going into a battle in darkness!”

As there was not much light that night, visibility was extremely low, and the few girls who were fighting above the Eiffel Hotel did not realize that they were all on the same side. Other than Isaman, the other five were from the same dorm. However, they did not recognize each other as they were all in their Dark Transformative states, and it was too dark to see anything.

If there were a bit more light, Kriss and Lisha would have realized that their opponents were actually their dorm mates, Elaine and Ariel. Bella still had no clue that her dorm mates were currently engaging in the battle of the year in “friendly fire.”

Bella had to admit, even if she switched to a completely different body, it did not change anything as her darkness came from the soul, and the body did not matter. She was speechless. Even with a fifty percent chance, she still managed to make the wrong choice. This luxury suite obviously was not room number six that belonged to the Flower Fairy Princess Luluxia. Instead, it was room number nine. The decor and design of the room was a far cry from what Bella imagined a Fairy’s room would look like.

Once she entered the luxury suite, she could smell an unusually delicate fragrance of blood that lingered in the air. The walls of the room had been painted crimson red, and there was a possibility that they had been painted using fresh blood. There were many tools all over the living room that Bella could not name as well. In order not to alarm the suite’s owner, Bella tiptoed into the room. She retrieved a stealth divine artifact, the Invisibility Cloak, from her storage ring and put it on.

Inside the luxury suite’s bedroom, the bed had been replaced with a heavy dark wood coffin. There was an inverted cross engraved into the top of the coffin as a representation of a rebellion against religion. Bella felt that the coffin must belong to a Vampire and a vain one at that.

A ring of blood-red roses surrounded the dark wood coffin. Peering inside the open coffin, Bella could see an adorable pink pillow and a few cloth teddy bears that were made to appear injured. The Vampires here in this Other World seemed to have quite a life of leisure and even owned pillows and toys. Bella saw a neat stack of blankets in the coffin as well. She wondered what the Vampires from her previous world who slept on wooden blocks would think about the arrangement in front of her.

The bathrooms of the luxury suites were connected to the bedrooms. Hotels of a certain quality in this Other World had designed the ensuite bathrooms this way to accommodate their guests’ “special needs.” This was for the convenience of the couples to engage in “activities” right after a shower.

Inside this bedroom that was filled with the metallic scent of blood, the ensuite bathroom’s door had been left wide open. The beautiful maiden having a bath was so bold and did not even bother closing the door. After taking a closer look, Bella recognized the girl in the bathtub as her acquaintance from the Alessandra Academy, whom she had met earlier, the Vampire Evelina.

Evelina was currently the image of a loli with blood-red twin pigtails. She had her back to Bella as she took a bath that was filled with fresh blood. She held a long-stemmed glass in her right hand with a bright red liquid that was definitely not tomato juice. Even in this Other World, the Vampires’ thirst for blood was the same.

Bella had only ever heard about using fresh blood to take a bath. It was definitely eye-opening to see it in person. However, this bath would come at an extremely high cost. The method that Evelina was currently using to take a bath was similar to one of the infamous ladies in history, “Bloody Mary,” who only bathed in the blood of young maidens.

The blood that Evelina was using must have been supplied by her beautiful blood servants. However, the only difference between the “Bloody Mary” and Evelina’s methods was that the latter used the same sources repeatedly and was not as cruel as the former who killed the girl once she used their blood.

Initially, Bella intended to turn around. However, she caught sight of a name list in Evelina’s left hand that stopped her from taking another step. She recognized the names on that list, and her younger sister Lisha was at the top of the list.
