Olsylvia Academy, at the newly constructed St. Michael’s Cathedral at the center of McPherson Monastery. Bella encountered Goddess Suzia again after taking in the Goddess of Light. The place that Goddess Suzia had been staying at, Sky Jungle Veblen, had been seeing a skyrocketing population of mutated Holy Beasts lately and Suzia’s strength wasn’t up for the task. In order to avoid being found out by the Twelve Demon Kings, she could only flee to the human continent.

St. Michael’s Cathedral was discovered by the Goddess of Light and God Princess Suzia had also discovered this miraculous cathedral while following the scent of the Goddess of Light. She was pleasantly surprised to find that the dragon knight she had met before, Bella, was the keeper of this cathedral. She didn’t even think much of the situation before requesting Bella to give her a place to settle down at.

The defensive power of St. Michael’s Cathedral is unexpectedly strong. The defensive barrier set up by Isaman of the Renegades earlier was able to isolate even Goddess Suzia from the God Race outside of the barrier. It was after seeing this powerful barrier that Suzia finally made up her mind to seek shelter here.

Goddess Suzia’s combat power was close to that of the Ancient Twelve Demon Kings. The God King of that time was barely able to take on the Twelve Demon Kings one on one, but was finally defeated after being surrounded. Of course Bella welcomed Goddess Suzia. She had the strength of one of the Twelve Demon Kings. Even if she didn’t go out to fight, it was enough for her to protect St. Michael’s Cathedral.

In addition to God Princess Suzia and the Goddess of Light who had just arrived today, Bella’s St. Michael’s Cathedral also housed the second-generation Death Goddess Rowling, second-generation Water Goddess Serna, Fallen Love God Mabel, and the Goddess of Life’s spirit. In addition to the generally accepted name of St. Michael’s Cathedral, Bella preferred to call this place the “Goddess Prison Cathedral” in private. This is basically where she’ll keep the goddesses she takes in in the future.

God Race Princess Goddess Suzia would never even think that this blonde beautiful dragon knight in front of her with her harmless smile would be one of her rivals, a Demon King, much less that Bella was even a high-ranking Demon God. Walking out so unpreparedly like this was equivalent to “throwing herself into the net”.

Bella personally brought Goddess Suzia into the cathedral to find a place to rest. While walking, she chatted with her. Suzia was very naive and didn’t try to hide anything when Bella asked her questions. Just like that, the simple-minded princess let loose large amounts of information on the God Race and unknowingly betrayed them to the race’s sworn enemy, the Demon Kings.

Goddess Suzia had also “sold out” the prettier goddesses from the God Race. She didn’t think it was any problem revealing basic information of the goddesses she could call her sisters to this Dragon Knight Bella. Other than God Princess Goddess Suzia, the four most beautiful goddesses of the God Race are the Goddess of Light, the Goddess of Darkness, the Goddess of the Moon, and the Goddess of Life.

Bella had taken in one and a half out of these four goddesses. The Goddess of Light had sought her out by herself to seek lodging while the soul of the Goddess of Life was temporarily residing here. She was just waiting for a way to restore her body. The whereabouts of the Goddess of the Moon and the Goddess of Darkness are currently unknown. Bella figured that they haven’t disappeared either, though. The Twelve Demon Kings didn’t even completely annihilate the Goddess of Light that they hated so much, so there was a much lesser chance they would for the Goddess of the Moon and the Goddess of Darkness who shared the same dark attributes as them.

But Bella also obtained an interesting piece of information from Goddess Suzia. Based on her memories, the Goddess of Light Saldina had the ability to listen and observe the movements of her devotees inside of a church through the statues of the Goddess of Light that were erected all throughout the human continent. Since the Goddess of Light Saldina had been put under the Demon King’s Curse over ten thousand years ago, her sight had been robbed of her and she could only listen.

Which is to say, every time Bella bullied the Holy Maidens, priestesses, and nuns in front of the statue of the Goddess of Light in the Radiant Church’s cathedrals and convents, the Goddess of Light Saldina may not be able to see what Bella was doing, but she heard it all loud and clear. The reason she could not distinguish Bella’s voice earlier was purely because Bella’s voice would get mixed in with the girls every time she bullied them. Goddess Saldina was already red-faced at hearing those noises, how could she have the willpower to distinguish between the voices of the girls?

Since Goddess Saldina knows so much, there’s no way Bella would let her go easy. After being a listener for so long, it’s time for her to become a “participant”. After Bella brought Goddess Suzia to a quiet room, she secretly entrusted Priest Isaman to help watch out for her. Then, Bella rushed to the place where Goddess of Light Saldina had settled down. Of course, she did not intend to push down Goddess Saldina through force. Her eyes have yet to recover. If she pushes her with force, then she might be bullied into becoming a “disabled goddess”.

In a corner of the first floor of St. Michael’s Cathedral, Bella saw the Goddess of Light Saldina, who had just stepped out of her bath. Succubus Queen Aisha who brought her here did not prepare a towel for her on purpose out of professional habit. After sensing that her Mistress Bella was about to arrive, Aisha lured Goddess of Light Saldina, who was still naked and dripping, out to meet with Bella so that Demon King Bella could admire her body.

At first, Goddess of Light Saldina wanted to ask for a towel. It was very shameful for a goddess to walk around naked in the cathedral. If it were seen by any devotees of the light, then the Goddess of Light’s reputation would be shattered. However, the reason given by Succubus Queen Aisha was, “we’re all girls here after all, there’re no secrets to hide”. Goddess Saldina couldn’t refute this, so she had no choice but to compromise.

Bella finally saw the true appearance of the Goddess of Light Saldina. After a simple round of cleaning, Saldina had been returned to a gloriously beautiful appearance. Sure enough, the beauty of the great four beauties of the God Race weren’t mere rumors. She had the standard long locks in a pure gold color. Even though her eyes were shut, it did not conceal her elegance in the slightest. Her fair and dainty body was close to the golden ratio, and standing there, one could even see a faint ray of golden light shining over her body. That golden glow looked so strongly divine, majestic as an inviolable Goddess.

At this point in time, your average person would have submitted to the divine majesty of the Goddess of Light. Nobody would even have the slightest doubt or blasphemous idea in their minds. But Bella is a Demon King. Seeing Goddess of Light Saldina’s gorgeous body filled her mind with all sorts of wicked and erotic ideas, and she was nearly unable to help herself from reaching out for a “breast attack”. But she couldn’t be blamed for her lack of self-control, it’s just that Goddess of Light Saldina clearly had the face of a young beauty, yet she had a proud older sister type beauty with a chest size even larger than the God Race Princess, Goddess Suzia.

“Goddess Saldina, you should stay here for a while. I won’t charge you any rent, but I’ll have to trouble you with the nun work, if that is fine with you? Right, my name is Bella. I’m sort of the manager of this Cathedral.”

“Uh, how did you know my name...But alright, I promise. Only...You should understand my identity. I can’t just pray to my own idol every day, can I? That would be too humiliating.”

“Don’t worry, you won’t be praying to your own idol. The front half of the prayer hall is for the general devotees and the back half is prepared for you. Alright, let’s get you changed into your nun robes.”

“Uh, I can change myself...Wait, I really can change by myself!”

Goddess of Light Saldina didn’t even have time to think about how Bella knew her divine name. She was being dragged into the changing room semi-forcefully by Bella and dressed up like a doll to Bella’s wishes. She personally changed the Goddess of Light into the robes of a nun. During that process, she was able to see practically every nook and cranny of the Goddess’s body. The holy, sacred, and inviolable Goddess of Light in the hearts of her countless devotees was taken advantage of just like that. If any of the light’s believers saw this, the Radiant Church would probably face a great collapse in the faith which had been passed down for ten thousand years.

Bella brought over a white blindfold and put it on Goddess of Light Saldina. Gold crosses were depicted on the white blindfold, a product of the Radiant Church. This would temporarily cover up the matter of the Goddess of Light having problems with her vision. Whether it was a cathedral or a monastery, the Radiant Church will not hire people with physical problems. So, the issue with the Goddess of Light’s eyes had to be concealed for the time being, otherwise, it would easily arouse suspicion about her identity. The source of this ᴄontent is ɴo(v)elFɪre.net

In the hidden area behind the prayer hall of St. Michael’s Cathedral, Goddess of Light Saldina could feel a huge emission of light energy from the idol figure that was worshipped here. It felt like you were flowing down a river and realized for the first time the vastness of the ocean as you reached the edge. Without needing for Bella to say anything more, Goddess of Light Saldina crossed her fingers together and performed a solemn prayer to the statue she could not see.

That was a statue of Creator of Light Anastasia Vianne. In terms of light attribute divine power, the difference between the radiant gods of other dimensions was practically like a god and a normal believer of the light in front of her. There was nothing wrong with Saldina’s actions. The Goddess of Light was praying to the Creator of Light. Be it her identity or power, it made perfect sense.

The idol was created by Creator of Light Vianne herself and had a trace of her consciousness left on it. Bella herself would not worship her idol. Creator of Light Vianne told her that Bella did not need to worship her idol. As for the reason, she said that their identities were incompatible. Bella was the same as her and did not need to do this. In the end, Vianne never said which parts of them were the same.

After settling the two goddesses down, Bella’s daily management work in St. Michael’s Cathedral was considered over. Based on her request, Goddess of Light Saldina would temporarily serve as a nun in the cathedral and help look after the idol of the Creator of Light. As for her temporary vision loss caused by the Demon King’s Curse. Bella would find some other way to help her recover.

God Princess Suzia was placed elsewhere and would not meet the Goddess of Light for now. Bella had arranged for her to become St. Michael Cathedral’s female pastor. This statue was slightly higher than that of Goddess of Light Saldina’s, which was just in line with their positions in the God Race. Neither of the two goddesses had any objections to Bella’s arrangements. After all, they were “staying under her roof”. It was fortunate enough that they were able to find a landlady like Bella that did not ask for “rent”.

It was only later that each goddess that had been “picked up” found out that their “landlord” collected rent too, just that the rent was a bit special. It was something that was “precious” to the goddesses. It was too late for them to regret it then. One by one they were bullied by Bella into becoming her personal goddesses for the rest of their lives.

Olsylvia Academy’s proposal to organize a tri-academy joint campus festival event at the Ancient Saxton Battlefield quickly received responses from both academies. The first one to respond was Antoinette Academy. As an art school, this sort of networking activity can open up “special markets”. Many students over there were looking for opportunities for business deals in the name of networking. So, Antoinette Academy was the first to agree to merge their music festival with Olsylvia Academy’s community festival.

Alessandra Academy for the Foreign Races agreed after that. It didn’t take Bella any special work. There were many foodies at Alessandra Academy. When they heard that Olsylvia Academy’s festival also had good food on offer, they happily agreed to move their food festival over and merge with Olsylvia Academy’s campus festival. The various diplomatic efforts Bella prepared before now seemed unnecessary.

The Ancient Saxton Battlefield had been transformed into a scenic outdoor event venue in just a short amount of time. There was lush green vegetation everywhere and the place looked vibrant. In order to achieve the best effect, Bella and the insanely rich members of the Rose Society spent a lot of money to buy large trees, transplanting them directly at the area, making it look as if these woods had existed for some number of years.

Nobody would even associate this area with the ruins of the legendary Ancient Saxton Battlefield. Apart from the towering Requiem Tower built at the center to silently commemorate the heroes of the human race who passed away here, there was no trace of the ancient battlefield left behind. In order not to cause panic, the Rose Society changed the name of the location to Margarita Resort Plains after receiving official permission from the Manasvir Empire. They won’t be using the original name Ancient Saxton Battlefield for the time being.

The students of the three major academies who were participating in the joint campus festival all came together to set up their stalls based on the initiative as a sign of friendship. Everyone’s stalls were set up together so there was no area where a single academy occupied a large chunk of alone. The only thing that stumped Bella was that everyone had come out in their own academy’s uniforms to differentiate between the students.

This decision felt purely redundant to Bella. If they wanted to differentiate each other then just wear the school badge. Did they need the uniforms? The person who thought of this dumb idea definitely has a grudge against “gentlemen”. Except for the paid version of Alessandra Academy’s military style uniform, the uniforms of the two other academies are extremely conservative. They were designed to seriously “impede the progress of human civilization”. It wrapped the wearer up so tightly that you couldn’t get any fan service from it. Bella was the same as most of the “gentlemen”. She was looking forward to the fan service, but now it’s all ruined because of those pesky school uniforms.

For Alessandra Academy, the only one with a fan-service type uniform, the percentage of those with the paid school uniform weren’t a lot. These girls belonged to the rich and powerful type. Most of the girls participating in the joint campus festival aren’t here to run a booth. If they didn’t walk around with their black and white stockings, it’s the same as not having them.

Near the entrance of the campus festival, Bella secretly set up an energy detection crystal. It was able to detect the power levels of the students who enter. This energy detection crystal is a product of other world “black magic” technology that Bella entrusted Mechanical Creator Andrea and Magic Creator Bethia with creating. The maximum energy detection value was based on Bella’s own body, Sacred Demon God Samantha.

Only when the person’s power can surpass Sacred Demon God Samantha’s will the energy detection crystal explode and be destroyed. There were only a few existences who can surpass the fourth-ranked Sacred Demon God Samantha of the World Destructor’s Camp in terms of power and could be counted on one’s fingers. The chance of the energy detection crystal being damaged was very low. For other existences not too far different from Bella’s power, such as other World Destructors in the top ten, the energy detection crystal will give a warning but will not explode.

With this energy detection crystal in place, Bella didn’t have to investigate personally and she could easily obtain the energy data of the students participating in the joint campus festival. Based on the intensity of the energy, she could easily determine the general strength of the students. After setting this all up, Bella took her girlfriends to enjoy the rare leisure time at the campus festival with ease. Ever since returning from the inter-academy qualifying competition, Bella really hadn’t relaxed properly! She will have to make up for that on this campus festival.

Not all of her girlfriends could come out with Bella for a walk. Bella brought her girlfriend Kriss and little sister Lisha. These two were walking each on one side of Bella. Since this was a public place, Kriss didn’t dare to hold Bella’s hand openly. However, that didn’t bother Lisha that much. The emperor of the Octavia Empire had already acknowledged that Bella was the ninth princess, Felia. There was no problem with Lisha holding her older sister’s hand. It was normal for sisters to hold hands; there’s nothing strange about it.

As Bella’s “temporary maid”, Isaman could only follow behind Bella and the girls. Fortunately, Bella still had a conscience and did not have Isaman wear her maid costume in public. If that had been the case, Isaman would have become the front page of Olsylvia Academy’s campus Gossip News this week. As for the other girls like Assassin Noreya, Mage Ariel, and Marionette Master Elaine, they didn’t come for certain reasons.
