The Manasvir Empire’s capital, Macnadix City’s Eastern District, Christian Hotel. Today’s preliminary round of the finals’ qualifier had ended. After a day of intense battles, almost all of the Rose Society’s major members had managed to advance into the top hundred. Of the girls in the top hundred, nearly all of them were the Rose Society’s prominent members. Only a few were not members of the Rose Society.
The first to advance was the team made up of Dragon Knight Grand Duke Bellina and Priest Isaman. With the flying dragon mount, they basically crushed their way up. And without having to bump into experts of their own Rose Society and the male Saviors, they advanced smoothly. Dragon Mage Grand Duke Baize and Princess Krizz’s team also managed to squirm into the top hundred just as it was about to end.
Throughout the preliminary stage, the one that attracted the most attention was Grand Duke Baize. Till now, the results of that battle were not made public. According to Grand Duke Baize’s post-battle statement, the abilities of the demonic dragons present were so terrifying that they incurred heaven’s wrath. Thus, they were all killed by a strike of thunder. This was clearly nonsense, but the only ones there were Grand Duke Baize and Princess Kriss. One was a princess, and the other a Grand Duchess. If they didn’t want to say it, there was no way the outsiders could persuade them to speak.
However, as the mounts of some contestants had violated the rules severely, the organizers of the competition decided to ban dragon mounts after some internal discussion. Neither pure dragons nor wyrms were permitted. They could use other mounts, however, such as griffins and the like.
Considering that this rule might directly lead to the weakening of dragon knight students, which went against the principle of fairness of the competition, each dragon knight contestant got an additional privilege. They could decide the competition’s venue up to three times as compensation, valid when the other party did not have a Dragon Knight in their team. Otherwise, the venue would be random if both sides had dragon knights.
Bella wasn’t very concerned about it, though. After the match, she immediately withdrew to the Christian hotel. Bella dared not stay for even a second at the palace provided by Emperor Manas XVIII for the contestants to rest. After killing the two senior demon subordinates behind the scenes and even stealing ownership of the Emerald Demonic Dragon and the Gem Dragon, it would be much more dangerous to stay at the palace. If the masterminds at the back were unable to forgive this and made their move, things would become troublesome in case of a conflict.
Curious people surrounded the Christian Hotel. Many wanted to catch a glimpse of Dragon Mage Grand Duke Baize, but the members of the Manasvir Empire’s royal guard helped protect the hotel’s perimeter. They stopped these busybodies from disturbing the resting space of the Olsylvia Academy’s girls.
Barely half of these imperial army soldiers were under Empress Manya Felan’s General Fanny. Bella falsely borrowed General Fanny’s name to mobilize them in the name of Manya Felan so that they would come to guard Christian Hotel. Even though the imperial army soldiers were generally no good at fighting, it was still better than nothing!
The strength of the imperial guard was limited nonetheless. They might be able to stop the general public, but they could not guard against the infiltration of high-leveled assassins. Assassins belonging to different forces managed to bypass the royal guards stationed at the outer periphery of the Christian Hotel and sneaked into the hotel in an attempt to investigate Grand Duke Baize.
However, though they came, none ever returned. Save for some floors, most of the Christian Hotel was now no different than a dark region. No matter how good their sneaking skills were, once the assassins entered Christian Hotel, they would be revealed by their vitality. And once exposed, the demonic beings around them would immediately close in and quickly finish these damned intruders.
Inside the hall of the Christian Hotel’s third floor private ocean room, Bella was entertaining her dragon companions. This was a large, luxurious, and elegantly designed ocean-themed room. It was primarily in an aquamarine shade with all sorts of seashells and pearls decorating it, making the guests, who came to dine, feel as if they were at the ocean.
On top of that, a super large rectangular fish tank was installed in the room, mounted as a wall cabinet next to diners as they ate. Vast numbers of underwater fish had been stocked in advance, and just looking at the carefree swimming fish gave one the wonderful feeling of being in the ocean.
The dining hall’s tables and chairs were all made out of precious red coral, providing an added immersive effect to guests. Bella sat at the host seat, casually dressed in a black bikini swimsuit. Around the large table, beautiful girls in various colors and types of swimsuits were also seated.
At Bella’s left was Golden Dragon Princess Laceman in her golden bikini. Laceman had only watched the previous fight with the demonic dragons. As her abilities were not strong enough, Bella forbade her from joining the battle. At the moment, Laceman was obediently pouring tea for Bella. The other dragon beauties here were senior to her in terms of qualifications and strength, so keeping a low profile was the wisest choice.
The one to Bella’s right was Crystal Dragon Princess Purple Crystal, dressed in a purple bikini. A big unhappy pout adorned her cute face, clearly upset about the new addition of the Emerald Demonic Dragon and the Gem Dragon. However, since Bella was around, it would be bad for her to throw a tantrum. Bella reached out to take Purple Crystal into her arms.
“Master... I... My injuries are still...”
“No petty excuses, Miss Purple Crystal. Your eyes still seem to have... I’ll...”
“Don’t... I understand, Master. I’ll get along with them.”
Purple Crystal immediately conceded upon meeting Bella’s playful gaze. After having previously endured the power of that doomsday lightning strike, save for Golden Dragon Princess Laceman, who still had energy, the others were only barely able to remain seated. They were completely drained. Other than the distinctive scent of a dragon on their bodies, they were no different from a weak human beauty.
Bella clearly chose to invite them at this time for a reason. If any of them didn’t go along with her wishes, this demoness might just play some strange tricks to make them submit. Thunder Dragon Queen Geleman, New Moon Demonic Dragon Dorothea, as well as Sea Demonic Dragon Amy Beth, were wearing dark-blue, moon-white, and sea-blue bikinis, respectively, sitting around Bella. Although they were usually arrogant ladies, they were all well-mannered in front of their “Dragon Knight” master. They gracefully tasted the delicacies at the table.
Emerald Dragon Princess Bess and Gem Dragon Queen Lolifel were sitting in front of Bella and eating without any sense of crisis. They were wearing the most revealing style of bikinis, and it was not an exaggeration to call them lingerie instead. The one Bess wore was special lingerie made up of pearls and shells, while Queen Lolifel wore gemstone lingerie as usual that looked exceptionally sexy and alluring. Bella gulped under her breath and got up, approaching them carefully.
“Huh? Didn’t you say... we were just going to eat...”
“Bella... You already have the other dragons. We...”
Bess and Lolifel realized that the situation wasn’t right, but it was too late to escape. As soon as these two foodies heard that there would be a free meal where they were allowed to eat and drink to their hearts’ content, they threw everything aside and even forgot about their severe injuries. They didn’t even care that they were asked to change into strange bikini swimsuits and just came.
Bella went towards them and pulled them both into her arms, one on each side. She then headed to the platform at the center of the room. The other dragon beauties lowered their heads and endured the urge to laugh. They all continued pretending as if nothing had happened, turning a deaf ear to Bess and Lolifel’s pleas for help. In their opinion, it was only fair that everyone would become Bella’s mount. Even if Bella really wanted to let the Emerald Demonic Dragon and Gem Dragon off today, they wouldn’t be willing.
“Bella, the bill for the food... I’ll pay with emeralds! Let’s talk this out normally... No... Don’t kiss...”
“Bella, I’ll give you the most beautiful gemstones. You... Don’t do anything funny. I’m scared...”
Bess and Lolifel were easily pushed onto the platform, and they were instantly relieved of their special non-essential bikini swimsuits. Quickly, they were transformed into naked and inviting appearances. Bella pounced over and straddled Bess, keeping her in place and not allowing her to get up. Holding Gemstone Dragon Queen Lolifel with both hands, she also imprisoned her securely in her arms. The two dragon ladies were shaken by Bella’s dominance and forgot to resist for a moment, watching Bella silently, as if waiting for their final edict in anticipation of her next move.
“Lolifel, become my mount. Come into my possession, and you will have endless delicacies to enjoy. Your former master will surely not be able to treat you as well as I can.”
“This... We Gem Dragons are... Mh... Wait... Let me... finish speaking! Don’t...”
“I’m not listening. Tell me later if there’s anything you need to say.”
Bella took Gem Dragon Queen Lolifel’s lips domineeringly. Just like with Thunder Queen Geleman, she broke through both her and the other party’s skin with a bite, allowing their blood to mingle in their mouths. It formed a special blood contract. Queen Lolifel’s beautiful irises that looked just like gemstones were now dazed. Bella deliberately teased her lips as her demonic blood seeped into her body bit by bit, transforming her into a Demon King’s possession.
Lolifel wanted to resist, but her hands and legs were powerless, so she could only think about it. She was stuck close to Bella, and their chests felt the wonderfully soft sensation of each other. This made her unable to endure, and she was doomed to sink one step at a time. When Bella took her lips away, Lolifel’s face had already become charming from the fluctuations of her emotions. Without needing any more teasing from Bella, she fell into her arms.
“So, have you come to your decision yet? Gem Dragon Queen, you were not as proactive earlier.”
“Bella, you... you’re annoying! Can we not mention what happened earlier? I don’t care anymore; you’re too domineering. I admit my loss, alright!”
Looking at the Gem Queen, who was hot all over from her intimacy with Bella, Emerald Demonic Dragon Princess Bess, who was under them, felt her cheeks blushing shamefully. The two were being intimate while straddling her and using her as a meat cushion. How despicable! They were teasing her on purpose! Bess tried to take advantage of the chaos to break free, but she was pressed down onto the platform once more by Bella.
“Bella... You... Don’t be like this. Queen Lolifel has already submitted to you, so please... please let me go!”
“No, Bess. I never like settling for less. Why don’t you stay with Queen Lolifel? You’re clearly feeling it already.”
“Who... Who’s feeling it! Don’t you... simply... Don’t kiss... Everyone’s watching!”
Bella had already put Queen Lolifel aside and lowered her head. From her legs onwards, she kissed upwards through Emerald Demonic Dragon Bess’s whole body. This was one of Bella’s super “ultimate gentry tricks”. Pretty much no beauties could keep their resolve under this move. Bess had already gotten aroused at the intimate scene of Bella kissing Queen Lolifel in all sorts of ways. Being kissed by her now caused her to directly surrender. She should be glad that she didn’t have a loli-type body; otherwise, it wouldn’t end at just kisses. This demoness was the type to lick loli beauties all over!
Very quickly, Emerald Demonic Dragon Bess, who was feeling all heated, embraced Bella and “rolled around the sheets” with her. The other dragon beauties looked at the locked door, knowing that Bella had no intention of letting them go first. However, she did not intend for them to be mere spectators either. Under Thunder Dragon Queen Geleman’s leadership, they shed their bikinis one by one and climbed onto the platform that was filled with the fragrance of lilies.
While Bella was still “training” her mount, the crowd of onlookers outside the Christian Hotel began to disperse in an orderly fashion, as they had been unable to see Bella. They could only look forward to the broadcast of the finals. At the same time, several shadows hiding in one of the rooms in the building across the street were plotting something. They whispered to each other as they watched the going-ons inside Christian Hotel through the window.
“Brothers, is the news reliable? Is that dragon knight whatever in there?”
“Of course! Grand Duke Baize and Grand Duke Bellina are both in that hotel. Because of them, the top lost a large sum of money. We can’t just let them go without teaching a lesson, or we’ll lose money again on our Top 100 bets.”
“We should still be careful. After all, they’re duchesses. Things are gonna get messy if we’re found out. Also, the leader of the Eyes of Darkness, Chairman Sally Roy, and the other underworld young mistresses are in there. Tell your men to be careful. If you catch the wrong person and clash with the four great young mistresses of the major evil organizations, we’re done for. Even the top won’t be able to save us.”
“I know that. It’ll be fine. I have an idea...”
The men dressed in black were the leading members of the human underworld’s largest gambling organization, “Spades K’s” Manasvir Empire’s capital, Macnadix City, branch. Spades K was an underground casino that had been developing rapidly and seemingly had the ability to become the fifth major evil organization of the human underworld after the Blood Skull, Skeleton Tower, Eye of Darkness, and Horrorshow Group.
Due to Bella’s upsets during this Olsylvia Academy Inter-academy Qualifying Competition, Spades K had lost a lot of money in the bets. In order to teach Bella a lesson, Spades K, which had been developing smoothly, decided to show her what they were about. This was their first time “seeking death”, and perhaps, this would also be the last.
Wearing a white towel, Bella walked out of the room. Her body was covered in sweat. She just had an intimate session with her mounts and had no idea that some death-seeking characters had their eyes on her. As soon as she stepped out, she bumped into Little Sister Lisha. Lisha was dressed in standard dragon knight light armor with a letter in her hands. After seeing Bella, she quickly went over to her.
“What’s wrong, Little Sister Lisha? Your complexion looks bad. Are you feeling unwell? Why don’t I take you to Priest Isaman and have her look at you? She can cure anything.”
“That’s not it, Big Sister Bella. Read this letter. It was urgently sent from our homeland shortly after the competition. Big Sister Irene and Luce received similar ones too.”
The logo of the Octavia Empire imperial family was boldly emblazoned onto the envelope. It was from the Knights’ nation to the north, the Octavia Empire. Based on what Lisha said, this letter was sent over through the magic teleportation array. The cost of transporting this all the way here was huge, so it was not hard to imagine the urgency of the situation.
Bella opened the letter with some doubts. It was a letter that the Octavia Empire’s emperor had written to her little sister, Lisha. Bella could recognize those familiar strokes at a glance, but she couldn’t help it. Her surrogate body, Princess Felia, had a lot of dissatisfactions with her life before, but she never once complained about the Emperor, that loving father of hers. After taking over her body, though she disliked the Emperor, it wasn’t hatred at all. Presumably, that was because of her surrogate, Princess Felia!
Bella perused the letter for a while but didn’t discover anything strange. It was a typical letter about a father asking about his daughter’s recent life. It was as normal as it could be. The Emperor did not put up his majestic airs when he wrote the letter. Rather, it felt more like an average father caring for his daughter.
At the end of the letter, the Emperor had seemingly unintentionally asked Little Sister Lisha whether Grand Duke Bellina and Princess Felia were the same person. The Emperor of the Knights’ Empire was straightforward and did not hide his intentions. This left Lisha at a loss on how to respond.
The other two princesses, older sisters of Bella’s surrogate body, Princess Irene and Princess Luce, had also received the same letter. They, too, had no idea how to respond. Thus, they simply had Lisha come over to seek Bella’s opinion.
Bella guessed that it was probably related to the magical broadcast. Several of her other older and younger brothers, such as Prince Copperfield, had mostly forgotten that they had a sister called Princess Felia, but not the Emperor. He recognized Bella’s surrogate body as Ninth Princess Felia. Right now, Bella’s identity was that of the Gabriel Empire’s Grand Duke. Therefore, the Emperor would not dare to openly send someone to investigate Bella.
“Little Sister Lisha, just reply to the old man and tell him it’s not me. This isn’t within the sphere of influence of our Empire anyway. That old man can’t do anything.”
“Big Sister Bella, actually... There’s also a letter addressed to you. Old father wrote you one as well.”
