Volume 6 Chapter 327: The Perfect Ending To Operation Escaping Chapman City

The Grand Duke Gould’s mansion within Chapman City, one of the defense cities of the Manasvir Empire’s capital, the Macnadix City. Bella and Noreya were hiding on the roof of Grand Duke Gould’s mansion. After witnessing the Grand Duke’s near animalistic “dominant actions,” Noreya whipped out her bow and arrow as she was fully prepared to shoot the man.

Bella turned to look at Noreya as she felt the presence of a murderous aura in the air. She realized that Noreya was standing there with a weapon in her hand. However, this was not the right time to attack. Fortunately, Bella was standing close by and managed to stop Noreya in time. Like Officer McAdam, the Grand Duke Gould could be killed easily. The crux of the matter was that the few demons impersonating as imperial ambassadors were much more challenging to handle.

“Bella, you…”

“Noreya, just wait a little more. Don’t worry, I promise I will not stop you later on.”

“Fine, I will allow him to live a little longer on your account.”

The Grand Duke Gould was still blissfully unaware that he had already been marked as a target as he was still engaged in discussion with those Imperial Envoys and the First Class Clerical Officer McAdam. The Grand Duke’s seal that Bella was looking for was with Grand Duke Gould. That fellow had kept it close to him and carried it everywhere he went. By the looks of it, there was no way he could be kept alive.

“My Lord, you really do know how to have fun. These breasts are so pure and fragrant, what a delicacy! It’s a shame, though. If only these girls were…”

“Officer McAdamn, from your tasting methods, I could tell that we share similar tastes. I wanted them too. These young ladies are definitely not a match for girls from the Olsylvia Academy. Unfortunately, those girls all have titles and are difficult to get!”

Through that borderline creepy conversation, Bella had a vague idea of the situation now. The plan had been to separate the students into two groups by lying to the boys and leading them away, leaving the girls behind to be closely monitored. This was all done according to the Imperial Envoy’s instructions. The teacher leading the boys, Great Magister Orlando, had been duped by the Grand Duke Gould and brought the boys on a mission to slay demons.

The few demons masquerading as Imperial Envoys barely touched the variety of delicacies on the dining table. There was a possibility that those demons were shocked by the Human dominant’s tastes, and for a moment, they did not know what to say to express their opinions.

“Imperial Envoys, have you lost your appetite? If you do not like this event, I have something more fun in store. Later on…”

“No, thank you, Grand Duke Gould. You Humans… I mean, you nobles really do know how to have fun. Since we are here on official business, we shall abstain this time. You may proceed according to the imperial decree.”

“If that’s the case, Imperial Envoys, please excuse me.”

The troublesome demons impersonating Imperial Envoys left the feast as quickly as they could. After all, they had accomplished what they came to do, and they felt uncomfortable acting as though they were humans. The Grand Duke Gould did not keep them back either and gave each of them an unmarked magical debit card. It was unclear how much gold was stored in those cards. However, those were black in color, and such “black cards” usually were at least ten thousand gold coins in value and did not have an upper limit.

“Hehe, those prudish Imperial Envoys are finally gone. From the moment I laid my eyes on them, I knew that they could not handle it and would only spoil our fun. Grand Duke Gould, do you have anything else in store for us?”

“Of course, I do. These are simply the appetizers. Later…”

“Excuse me, my lord, the granary area is being attacked by corpses of an unknown origin… Please, my lord…”

Just as the Grand Duke Gould reached out to caress every inch of the beautiful girl placed on a plate in front of him, a report from one of his troops outside stopped him in his tracks. The soldier was fully aware of the rules and waited at the door instead of stepping into the special restaurant. He was not supposed to see some things, and he chose to take a step back to protect himself.

“Where did those zombies come from… Could there be an uprising among the corpses in the cemetery at the back of the Valentine Cathedral? Damn it, if I had known this would happen, I would have paid good money to someone from the Radiant Church to take care of that dump.”

“Suppress them then, fight back! As Imperial Guards, shouldn’t you already know what to do? You don’t have to report your every move, just tell me when it’s over…”

“My Lord, it’s not that… The guards can’t hold on much longer. The horde of zombies will reach here soon.”

Upon hearing the news, the glass in the Grand Duke Gould’s hand nearly fell to the ground. More than forty thousand Imperial Guards tried and failed to block the advance of the Corpse King. The remaining survivors had all retreated towards the city walls to join the sixty thousand Imperial Guards there.

Usually, it was not difficult to deal with those corpses. However, Bella had underestimated the power of a single drop of her Demon King’s blood. The first Corpse King that she had resurrected was basically a mini-boss that was much more difficult to deal with. Under the Corpse King’s command, the Corpse Army’s combat power instantly increased by a few levels. Since the Corpse King was semi-intelligent, it knew that the city lord’s mansion was the city’s command center. This meant that by attacking the mansion, it would definitely destroy the guards’ morale.

At the moment, the Corpse King still did not dare to approach the barracks, which temporarily housed the girls from the Olsylvia Academy. The barracks were filled with the presence of powerful entities from the Radiant Church. It was also protected by a large magical barrier, the “Sacred Heaven,” that would significantly affect the corpses’ abilities to attack. It knew that it was more likely to fail if it attacked the barracks than the Grand Duke Gould’s mansion.

“What… we need to leave. Officer McAdam, retreat… You, send out my orders. No matter what, we need to protect… Where did he go? I…”

Once the soldier heard the word “retreat” coming out of the Grand Duke Gould’s mouth, he left as quickly as his legs could carry him. The soldier disappeared without a trace and did not even wait to listen for further instructions. This slap in the face came too quickly. The Grand Duke Gould was stunned as the situation became incredibly awkward. However, something more embarrassing happened. Officer McAdam had run away at the first moment. Before Duke Gould was done with his conversation, Officer McAdam was already nowhere to be found.

Outside Duke Gould’s Grand Mansion, the hordes of corpses were closing in. The Imperial Guards were losing. Just as Bella predicted, even the Imperial Guards who were decked in golden armor were practically useless. The guards were quickly defeated by a combined attack by the Corpse Army. After losing more than one thousand troops, the remaining Imperial Guards swiftly retreated towards the city walls behind them.

After all, there were many large machines on the city walls that helped defend the city against any threat. It was much safer there than being out in the city streets with no cover at all. The guards outside the mansion were even more cowardly than the Imperial Guards. Even before the Grand Duke Gould had sent out his orders, they were already gone. By the time the corpses reached the mansion’s entrance, the guards were nowhere to be found.

“These guys, seriously… damn it, there’s no way I’m dying here. You people will simply have to remain here as bait!”

Grand Duke Gould got up and walked to the wall at the back of the restaurant. He pressed a switch as a secret door swung open, revealing a dozen or so imprisoned girls inside the annex. Those girls had already been prepped and cleaned to replace the beauties in the restaurant at any time. Their creamy-white skins were covered in a layer of honey, and the intoxicating scent could be smelled even from a distance.

The female prisoners had their hands and legs tied behind their backs. At this point, they had no clue about the situation outside as their eyes had been covered with black blindfolds and had red ball-gags stuffed inside their mouths. Grand Duke Gould did not have any regrets. Although it was a shame that he did not get to use these “first-hand goods,” there was nothing else more important than staying alive.

Grand Duke Gould raised the butcher’s knife in his hand and was prepared to cut the female prisoners to use the scent of fresh blood to distract the corpses. At that exact moment, a single arrow descended from the skies, pierced the arm holding up the knife, and stopped him from committing this insane act.

“Who is this, you are… assassins… don’t kill me… I can give you money…”

“Goodbye, you imbecile!”

Assassin Noreya dropped down from the ceiling. She teleported behind him and unleashed the assassin’s signature move – the “backstab.” With incredible precision, she plunged her blade into Grand Duke Gould’s heart from the back, finally ending the evil Duke’s life.

Bella quickly jumped down and grabbed hold of the seal that Grand Duke Gould was carrying around. Then, with a powerful push, she flung Grand Duke Gould right out of the restaurant’s doors. Once he landed outside, he was met with a swarm of corpses as the blood on his body had attracted the attention of countless corpses.

“Help… Somebody… My leg… Ahhhh….”

With his remaining breath, Grand Duke Gould tried to call for help. However, he was soon bitten to death by the corpses. The entire scene was extremely gory. Fortunately for Bella and Noreya, the mansion was not well lit, and they did not have a clear view of the R-rated image of the Duke’s death. The darkness of the mansion had managed to protect their eyes with a “Dark Screen.”

Although this was a cruel and unusual punishment, it was what the Grand Duke Gould deserved. The leader of the Corpse Army, the nameless Corpse King, immediately recognized Bella, who was still standing inside the restaurant. As the wound on Bella’s finger was still open, the Corpse King must have detected the faint smell of Demon King’s blood that wafted from her finger and instinctively knew that Bella was the one who had summoned it.

The semi-intelligent Corpse King stood still for a moment before kneeling to the ground to salute Bella. Likewise, Bella did not hesitate and quickly got used to her new role. She immediately used the Dark Demon language to order the Corpse King to move away from this place and create trouble elsewhere.

As the light was too dim, Bella could not tell what that Corpse King looked like. However, she could not shake off this feeling that the Corpse King was a little more petite than the other Corpse Kings from the Darkness Sacred Region. It was a far cry from the giant muscled, thickly built, and ferocious Corpse Kings in her memory. If the lighting were slightly better, Bella would have seen that the Corpse King was, in fact, a young lady and had curtseyed to her earlier on.

The Corpse King seemed to be reluctant to leave the pile of snowy white, extremely fragrant, Human beauties. Her human-like hands were clenched tightly into little fists, as though it was unwilling to walk away. After all, she was different from the normal Corpse Kings and was extremely picky about her food quality. Due to Grand Duke Gould’s overindulgence in life, his body was no good at all. Also, the texture was too bad, as it was evident that he was not up to her taste. Her sense of aesthetics was much more attracted to the pile of fresh meat.

Bella did not know that mixing Demon God’s blood with a Demon King’s blood made her blood even more potent than the normal Demon King’s blood. The first of every type of humanoid demonic being that had been blessed by her blood would experience powerful growth and development. As this Corpse King was the first to be awakened by Bella’s Demon King’s blood, it had attained many strong command type skills.

“Create trouble elsewhere. I am going to let these pretty sisters go!”

“Yes, Mistress. I hope our paths will cross again soon!”

“Eh… your voice is…”

Bella and Noreya were stunned. The Corpse King’s voice was clearly feminine. Even if Noreya could not understand the language, she could definitely tell that it was a girl! Bella was way too lucky. She somehow managed to awaken a Corpse King, who was a girl. By the sound of her voice, she could tell that it was a young loli.

The Corpse King left too hastily, and Bella missed the opportunity to ask that loli Corpse King for her name. Once she and Noreya put on their masks, they shook the imprisoned girls awake. As Noreya was constantly keeping an eye on her, Bella couldn’t manage to sneak off to pick up one of the glasses that had been left on the dining table. Despite trying a couple of times, she still missed out on the opportunity to savor that special “milk.”

As the city was now deep in chaos, these girls had no idea where to seek shelter. They were originally the residents of Chapman City and had been secretly imprisoned inside the Grand Duke Gould’s mansion. That pervert had a severe “virgin” complex. Although he did not truly penetrate them, he had used them for his erotic pleasure as those acts were humiliating enough.

“Oh, brave warriors, please… please take us in! We can do anything in return for some food.”

“Brave warriors, please take us in. Chapman City has already removed us from its city records, there’s nowhere for us to go to anymore!”

“Brave warriors, we remember everything that Master Gould had taught us. If you like, we can also…”

“That would be great… I mean, if you’re sure, then use this teleportation scroll. This will take you to the city lord’s mansion inside Angus City, the Grand Duchess Baize’s Mansion. There are several vacancies for maids there. All you have to do is report to Marquess Karoluna.”

Those girls were unwilling to remain in Chapman City as it was now a place filled with bad memories. They had no choice but to beg for Bella’s assistance. Bella then casually agreed to help them and gave them a few teleportation scrolls that would take them to her mansion in the Aldridge Empire.

Those girls had already been well trained by Grand Duke Gould, that “super gentleman.” By the time Bella returned to her mansion, she might have the opportunity to recreate the Grand Duke Gould’s special “banquet.” Once they made sure that those girls had left for the mansion using the one-way teleportation scrolls, Bella and Noreya cleaned out the Grand Duke Gould’s family vault that had existed for more than one hundred years before leaving as well.

The Gould Clan had accumulated so much wealth that it could not fit inside Bella’s personal storage ring. Fortunately, the Assassin Noreya, who accompanied her, carried more than a dozen spare rings, possibly out of “habit.” Both of them had taken every coin that the Gould Clan had hoarded for hundreds of years. While they were reaping their rewards, neither of them found any proof of the Grand Duke Gould’s spouse or other family members.

In reality, the members of Grand Duke Gould’s family had been imprisoned inside the Imperial City as hostages to claim rewards from the Emperor. He was the only one left. Otherwise, he would not have dared to fool around like this and imprison a large group of female slaves to play all sorts of humiliating games.

Bella found Officer McAdam, who had secretly tried to run away earlier. That guy had been chewed up and swallowed by the Corpse Army, leaving only an empty skull. Even his eyes were eaten as only a pair of empty bloody hollows remained. His name was extremely unfortunate as it basically sounded like a snack, which ended up being the reason for his demise. Those few demons that had been impersonating Imperial Envoys were nowhere to be found. No one knew if they had escaped or had found a different location to proceed with their mission.

By the time Bella and Noreya got back to meet the female students of the Olsylvia Academy, the other girls were almost ready to wage war on the Imperial Guards. The female students wanted to leave the city. However, without the Grand Duke Gould’s seal, the guards refused to budge, even with the presence of three princesses of the empire – President Isaman, Puppet Master Elaine, and Princess Pamela.

Since it was confirmed that most of the teleportation arrays had already been destroyed, the girls decided to conjure their own teleportation array with a fixed destination. The few thousand girls would be transported to the border regions of Macnadix City. With Supreme Magic Mentor Catalina around, it would not be difficult to achieve it.

“Your Highness, please do not make things difficult for us. We are simply following orders. Why don’t…”

“Alright, shut up. Here’s the seal. Can you open the gates now?”

As both parties were going head to head, Bella and Noreya arrived in time to stop them. Once they saw the Grand Duke Gould’s seal in Bella’s hand, the Imperial Guard commander had no choice but to give way. In the presence of various princesses and young mistresses of the five main empires, it would not do him any good to renege on his word. The commander then gave the order for the gates to be opened.

“Your Highnesses, where are you going…”

“Stop your chatter and open the gates, don’t dawdle and waste our time. If not for the fact that you were simply following orders, I would have killed you already.”

Without a second thought, Bella raged at the Imperial Guards, who tried to delay their departure. If they had a death wish, there was no way they were going to take Bella and the others down with them.

Within the central region of Chapman City, those imposter Imperial Envoys had all been killed. Demon Gavin had a disbelief look on his face when it realized that it was a Corpse Army that took them out. According to the hierarchy of dark beings, corpses were on the lowest rung. Even the most powerful Corpse King would not be a match for a high-level being of the Demon Race. Logically speaking, getting “five kills” like this was technically impossible.

“You… who the hell are you…”

“Your time has come. This is my territory now.”

With a swipe of her hand, the loli-sized Corpse King split the Demon Gavin cleanly in two. She then turned towards the city’s back gates and gave a solemn salute in Bella’s direction to say goodbye.
