The Villains Need to Save the World?

The third floor of Matilda Cosmetic Store located within the Venus Naga Business District of the Euphemia Imperial Academy at the western campus of the Olsylvia Academy.
Bella’s team of three was about to infiltrate the store when they were attacked by demonic beings. 

  

The demonic black mud beings, who had turned a blind eye earlier, suddenly appeared out of thin air and charged at them from all directions.
Their attacks were so accurate and calculated that it felt as though someone was controlling them in secret.
Bella’s trio did not dare to be careless and did not remove their gas masks even as they fended off their enemy’s attacks.
The scent of that psychedelic perfume still lingered.
If they were to accidentally catch a whiff of it, it could spell trouble for all of them. 

  

“What a difficult group to deal with! Bella, we have to find the mastermind; otherwise, this will never end.”

  

Assassin Noreya leaped up into the air, and dozens of shadow doubles appeared behind her, promptly beginning to engage in battle with the black mud demonic beings.
The demonic beings mainly tried to strike their opponents using their muddy hands, which were covered in lethal poisons.
Once it made contact, it would corrode even the most durable armor, let alone human flesh.

  

Bella did not dare to fight in close combat as she was dressed casually and did not have any armor on.
Thus, she had no choice but to take a step back and allow Noreya’s shadow doubles to handle the battle.
As they were not physical entities, the attacks from the black mud demonic beings would simply pass through them and did not cause them any damage. 

  

President Isaman twirled the dark gold scepter in her hands and blessed Bella and Noreya.
She could have joined in the battle as well; however, the strange magical arrays on the third-floor lobby emanated all sorts of suppressive magic.
To prevent her teammates on the frontlines from being affected by them, President Isaman could only take up the position as the priest.

  

As Bella and Noreya moved around in battle, they were followed by a ray of dark gold light.
That was President Isaman’s Blessed Light.
Bella could feel that the support provided by Isaman as a temporary priest was far too immaculate.
That ability definitely surpassed President Maria, who was the heir of the Radiant Pope, as well as the four Holy Maidens.
Also, the Blessed Light held hints of dark attributes, which meant that Bella, as a Demon King, could be supported too.

  

For now, Bella was using a Savior’s weapon, the Great Evil Slaying Sword.
She mimicked Princess Kriss’s attacks and fought as a swordsman.
Sadly, the multi-purpose Great Evil Slaying Sword was not too effective against these black mud demonic beings.
After it sliced through the opponent and split it in two, both parts would swiftly regenerate and turn into two separate demonic beings.

  

Bella nearly forgot that the mastermind behind all these could have been a Creator.
This meant that a Savior’s weapon would not cause it any harm at all.
She quickly retreated back to President Isaman’s side to provide cover for the priest of the team.
Assassin Noreya and her shadow doubles had used every single dirty trick in the book to delay the onslaught of the black mud demonic beings.
Both sides were now stuck in a stalemate.

The hundred-odd female students who were imprisoned on the third floor were all from the Olsylvia Academy.
No matter what, they were technically Bella’s schoolmates.
Moreover, they were from prominent families.
This meant that it would not be convenient for Bella’s trio to unleash their ultimate moves.
However, in order to make a crucial breakthrough, the only thing they could do was to employ those attacks.
Bella and her team were now stuck in a dilemma. 

  

“Just destroy that magical array.
Bella, you do it; I’ll cover for you!”

  

“President Isaman, no matter what happens, don’t stop your support, alright? Otherwise, I’m screwed!”

  

“Please, I’m not like you problematic students.
Go quickly! Destroy the pillar of the magical array, and I will have additional energy to aid you in the fight.”

  

Under the support of President Isaman’s Blessed Light and Assassin Noreya’s cover, Bella finally made it to the edge of the magical array on the third floor.
The girls who were imprisoned here were still completely unaware of the intense battle happening around them as they remained unconscious.
Bella swiftly swung the Great Evil Slaying Sword in her hand and sliced the “cloning tubes” in their mouths cleanly in two. 

  

Without the connections held by the “cloning tubes”, many of those clones stopped regenerating.
Bella’s timely interference prevented the other party from moving on to the next step of their evil plans.
Next, the magical pillars were much easier to deal with.
Bella simply used the innate brute force that she had as a Demon King and pulled the pillars out along with the girls trapped inside. 

  

The pillars that formed the magical array had been installed much later and were not too secure.
It did not take much effort for Bella to pull them out.
Once the array lost the support of the pillars, it could not sustain itself and quickly disintegrated into nothing. 

  

As the influence of the magical array began to fade, the suppression that President Isaman had been feeling gradually eased.
Finally, after the last pillar was destroyed, the suppression completely disappeared.
President Isaman then released a powerful beam of Light of Purification that illuminated the entire third floor.

  

Every single black mud demonic being that came into contact with the light instantly dissolved into a pile of sludge.
Clearly, there were many other elements inside President Isaman’s Light of Purification.
A pure Light of Purification would never be able to cleanse the alien demonic beings that had been tainted by the energy of a Creator from another dimension.

  

The mastermind who had been hiding on the third floor did not make a move at all.
It might have been afraid that it would be affected by President Isaman’s Light of Purification and did not come out to attack them.
Instead, it transformed into a black shadow and escaped out of the window.
By the time Bella got there, the mastermind had flown up into the skies above Matilda Cosmetics Store. 

  

Suddenly, a flash of dark crimson light flashed through the skies.
The unfortunate mastermind, whom Bella had never met, was instantly killed by the reinforcements that she had stationed outside.
The two petite lolis, Devastating Evil Dragon Emperor Lolita and Devouring Holy Dragon Euphenisia, emerged briefly out of the skies and gave Bella a signal, indicating that they had taken care of that fellow. 

  

“Bella, the fellow that flew out, was it…”

  

“Isaman, I have no clue either.
I think it must have gotten away! Come on, let’s get everyone out of here.
We’ll talk about everything else later!”

  

Bella could not explain where those two reinforcements came from to President Isaman yet and could only attempt to redirect her attention by changing the subject.
With the combined attacks of Lolita and Euphenisia, there was a possibility that there would be nothing left of the body.
However, Bella did not want to take any chances.
She ran over to the place where the shadow had escaped, and soon enough, she found a pile of human skin.

  

“This… this is the Imperial Fifth Class Clerical Officer Karl… Could it be that he had already been dead…”

  

President Isaman forced the bile that threatened to bubble up her throat back down and turned to help release the girls from their cages.

  

Bella carefully used her sword to pick that shell of human skin apart.
The mastermind must have killed the real Officer Karl before using his human shell to impersonate him.
At the moment, its motives remained unknown to Bella.
However, she was certain that it must have been instigated by another dimension’s Creator.
Other than the individual’s soul, these cloned copies were exact replicas of the original.

  

This particular skill was unique to the Creators of the World Creator’s Camp.
Other than that, Bella did not find any other important leads.
This mastermind Creator was much more cunning than the previous Divine Creator God whom Bella had met as he did not leave any tracks for her to find.

  

Matilda Cosmetics Store had been set on fire the next afternoon after Bella and her group infiltrated the store.
Fortunately, the staff and customers were evacuated in time, and no one was seriously injured or killed. 

Once Bella and the others rescued the imprisoned girl, they set fire to Matilda Cosmetics Store to permanently get rid of any evidence regarding the clones.
Those things are far too frightening for anyone to see.
It did not take long for the fire to consume the sins and evil that had happened here.
As President Isaman was present, Bella acted more decently, helping her to rescue the other girls. 

  

Assassin Noreya, who was observing everything, thought that Bella was affected by the psychedelic perfumes and had forgotten about her favorite hobbies.
While the entire academy’s attention was focused on the fire at Matilda Cosmetics Store, President Isaman had made use of the Rose Society’s powers to take control of the girls from Olsylvia Academy who had been cloned.
Then, she secretly got rid of the clones and replaced them with their original owners, basically foiling the mastermind’s cloning plan.

  

Once the news that Olsylvia Academy’s internal rankings would be held in the Manasvir Empire’s capital, the Macnadix City was released, it spread like wildfire.
This highly benefited Bella and the others, as the hype took over the headlines and overshadowed the fire at Matilda Cosmetics Store. 

  

The management of Olsylvia Academy was extremely willing to accede to their request to move the internal ranking competition to a different location.
To them, this did not need to utilize any of the academy’s funds, which meant that it was a good choice.
After the approval of the student union presidents was obtained, Chief President Angelia, who represented the students, agreed to the suggestion as well.

  

Manasvir Empire was the most prosperous empire of the Human Race, and its capital, Macnadix City, was also known as the “City That Never Sleeps”.
The entertainment facilities there were world-class.
The Manasvir Empire held the top ranks in tourism within the five Human empires, so there was no harm in taking a trip there either. 

  

Most importantly, this would be completely free.
The emperor had promised to sponsor all expenses for Olsylvia Academy’s internal rankings, which meant that all bills would be paid for by the Manasvir Empire.
The academy’s management had no reason to refuse such an enticing offer. 

  

When Bella received the news, she had been resting in a luxury suite at Hausmann Hotel, which was located within the Rose Society’s territory.
She was feeling a little tired after helping President Isaman break open the metal cages and removing the pillars of the magical array.
Furthermore, those girls, whom she had rescued, were so close, yet she could not touch them at all.
This time was the only exception.
Bella would never do such a thing that did not provide any rewards again unless President Isaman was fully hers. 

  

Bella sat leisurely on a couch while looking at a map of the Macnadix City that was close by.
She had never been to the “City That Never Sleeps”.
However, she had heard that it was an amazing destination for fun and entertainment.
What a waste to visit such a city solely for an internal competition. 

  

Before, Bella would not have been full of considerations like she was now.
Once she had heard the rumors that the emperor of the Manasvir Empire was a fake, she felt that this invitation reeked of an evil scheme.
However, she had no evidence to prove that it was some other entity that was impersonating the emperor. 

  

The debaucherous scene inside this luxury suite was so blasphemous that even the most staunch followers of the Radiant Church would lose their faith in their religion.
Bella had the First Generation Radiant Pope Goldsmith and the Fifth Generation Radiant Pope Roxanne wrapped in her arms as they laid at her side.
Their faces were flushed red, and their hands were securely fastened behind them with gold chains.
Both Goldsmith and Roxanne were naked, with nothing to cover them from Bella’s leering eyes. 

  

The four Holy Maidens were in the room as well.
The Holy Maidens from the Allen Faction—Susan and Hayley—knelt in front of the couch as they massaged Bella’s feet.
The Holy Maiden Sophia from the Micah Faction leaned against the back of the couch, reached out, and massaged her shoulders. 

  

The Holy Maiden Daisy from Salo’s Faction, who was the boldest and most open, stood obediently as she held up the map for Bella.
With her help, Bella did not even need a table at all.
Other than President Maria and the Holy Swordsman Cynthia, every beautiful young girl who held some title within the Radiant Church was here.

  

The Holy Maidens did not have any restraints on them as they had already fully “defected” to Bella, and she did not have to tie them up anymore.
On the other hand, these two female popes still had moments where they would throw tantrums, forcing Bella to use golden chains to keep them in check. 

  

“Bella, could you please ask them to leave? This is too…”

  

“Bella, please have mercy, I’ve already…”

  

Roxane and Goldsmith pleaded shyly with Bella.
The fact that they were being bullied in front of the current Holy Maidens was too much for them to bear.
Bella did not respond at all, however.
Although these two female popes made fervent verbal objections, their bodies were honest.
There was no way they could lie to Bella, who was a Demon King.

  

“My dear older sisters, just stop resisting.
It’s perfectly natural for a Demon King to bully Holy Maidens, Popes, and Warriors.
Your resistance is futile!”

  

Goldsmith and Roxanne were stunned into silence by Bella’s “extreme heresy”, and they could not think of anything to refute her claims.
Taking advantage of their silence, Bella continued to kiss and caress them until their bodies were covered in a sheen of fragrant sweat, almost as though they had just been taken by a man.

  

“By the way, I intend to participate in the academy’s internal rankings.
Older sisters, you should come with me.
Since both of you are my personal priests, it would be a waste if you don’t!”

  

Goldsmith and Roxanne had learned to be obedient now and did not say a word in resistance.
Being in Bella’s clutches, her decision was final.
Once Bella was satisfied with the two popes, she left them on the couch as the highly aroused Holy Maidens began to close in on them.

  

“Wait, don’t be beguiled by that Demon King.
We are popes…”

  

“Bella, don’t leave… please… Tell them to stop…”

  

“Older Sisters, don’t be so uptight.
After all, they’re still your descendants.
As their ancestor, just take it that you’re simply guiding them with your body, alright?”

  

While leaving, an evil smirk appeared on Bella’s face, as though her scheme had been successful.
The First Generation Pope Goldsmith was being pinned on the couch by Holy Maidens Susan and Hayley.
Before she could even finish her sentence, Holy Maiden Hayley had pressed her lips against hers, silencing Goldsmith.
The Fifth Generation Pope Roxanne was not in a better state either.
She had been moved off the couch and onto the carpet as Holy Maidens Daisy and Sophia began to make out with her. 

  

Just like this, these two female popes were “reversed pinned” by their descendants.
They had no other choice but to lay there and welcome the Holy Maidens as they violated them.
Gradually, they soon fell deeper into the pit of girls’ love passion.

  

“Mistress Bella, you’re too bold.
You actually allowed the legendary ancestor to be… If the Radiant Pope were to see this…”

  

“Ah, it’s Liz.
What are you doing here? Do you want to join them?”

 

When Bella opened the doors to head outside and take a quick breather, she bumped into the Holy Maiden Liz from the Darkness Church dressed in dark purple priest’s robes.
The look on her face was equal parts admiration and fear.
In Liz’s heart, the status of this female Demon King, who had the ability to “bully” the Radiant Church’s Holy Maidens and early female popes to this extent, had already surpassed the Twelve Demon Kings back then.

  

“Mistress Bella, I have something extremely important to report.
Although next time, if you wish to… well… do that to me… if we have the chance… could we?”

  

“Well, alright.
Tell me what information do you have to report?”

  

Bella was slightly depressed.
After all, the dark purple robes that the Holy Maiden Liz was wearing were highly translucent, and she was not wearing anything underneath it either.
It did not take much effort for Bella to see everything that was going on. 

  

Seriously, that Dark Holy Maiden Liz.
If she did not want Bella to have any dirty thoughts, she should not have worn something so enticing.
It was extremely immoral to tease someone like this.
Bella fought the urge to drag Liz into the room as she listened to her report.
Back then when they were raiding the graves of the previous radiant popes, the Dark Holy Maiden Liz had already enrolled in Olsylvia Academy. 

  

According to the Darkness Church’s arrangements, Liz’s primary mission was to keep an eye on the Radiant Church’s four Holy Maidens and the pope’s heir, President Maria.
Unbeknownst to the higher-ups at the Darkness Church, Liz had already “jumped ship” over to Bella’s side.
Right now, her true mission was to help Bella collect information about the Manasvir Empire, as well as to “monitor” the Darkness Church’s every movement.
Bella had some strange thoughts about the Darkness Church as well. 

  

Bella learned that the four main warlords within the Manasvir Empire had recently been in a state of unrest and were getting antsy.
Somehow, they had caught wind of the news that the emperor was critically ill.
Since the reigning emperor had not named an heir yet, once he passed away, the empire’s political state would definitely be in a mess. 

  

The change in location for the upcoming competition might be related to the instability of the Manasvir Empire’s political climate.
Many of the students from the Olsylvia Academy were part of the five main empires’ royalty or nobility.
This meant that they would be treasured as hostages.
After analyzing the situation, she decided to join in the fun.

  

“Liz, I need you to make the arrangements to seal off this information.
As much as possible, the other empires cannot know about this.
I will provide you with more help, as well.”

  

“I understand, Mistress Bella.
I will take my leave now.
Eh, Mistress Bella, where are you dragging me off to?”

  

“Liz, you have the cheek to ask me this question when you’re not wearing anything underneath.
Come inside… Forget it.
If you’re too embarrassed, I have no choice but to teach you how a girl should dress right here.”
