Chapter 136: Thoughts Inside of The Darkness (Act 7 Epilogue 2)

Death God; Zarxis

I felt something approaching as I was meditating inside the darkness.

Diadona, eh? What happened to Dahark and Giltar?

Diadona was supposed to be looking at the injured Giltar and Dahark.

Considering our battle in the near future, it would be for the best to have as much power as possible for the war.

Those two still had a long way to go and were rather inexperienced, but we still needed their strength.

That's why Diadona was looking after them.

There's no problem with Dahark except the fact that he feels bitter about not being able to fight the Dark Knight. The problem is Giltar. Though his tail has recovered, the same can't be said with his heart, the Dark Knight smashed his heart to pieces that day, Giltar can't be relied on as a potential for war again.

I see I want to have as many allies as possible, but it's truly an unfortunate situation.

Giltar was quite a powerful evil god.

That's why it really was a huge blow to lose him.

Sure enough. And, speaking of potential for war, how's your new body, Zarxis? Can I rely on your power?

Asked Diadona.

Not yet. I have yet to return to my prime. But, just give me some time and I'll be back to my peak.

I see, I'll be waiting for that moment, Zarxis.

I laughed along with Diadona.

The darkness is coming.

===

Demon King; Modes

I received a report inside the darkness.

I see. Zarxis regained his original power, huh.

The altar room in which I enshrined my deceased mother was dark without a speck of light since my mother hated bright places.

I received a report from Loughas in front of that altar.

I felt an ominous premonition when I heard the contents of the report, it told me that an unpleasant fella had regained his power.

I don't think he's foolish enough to think about taking revenge on Your Majesty but, just to be sure, I'll collect more information about Zarxis.

Loughas bowed as he reported this matter in the altar room.

The one who incapacitated Zarxis in the past was me, Modes.

We fought, and I literally crushed him.

Alas, Zarxis didn't die despite losing his power.

Now that he regained his power, he must be thinking about taking revenge on me.

There's a possibility of him targeting this Modes, and the other fellas who betrayed mother

But Your Majesty, the world will be destroyed if he does that. Personally, I know that following Your Majesty that day was the correct choice.

I see Thank you, Loughas.

Loughas was trying to make me feel better.

Still, we have no idea what the people who follow Diadona and co are trying to do. As for Diadona and Zarxis, it must be something along the lines of the world's destruction.

Destruction? Those who follow Diadona don't seem to realize that. Poor fellas.

Safe for a few sharp ones, probably most of the Gods who joined Diadona's faction were tricked by her.

She probably used some sort of bait to lure them into her faction.

Well, those fellas were the kind of people who moved based on their lust after all.

And then, it reminded me of Mona again.

Will Diadona allow Mona's existence?

I don't think she would allow Mona's existence

Given the choice, I really wouldnt choose to fight her, but

I muttered while looking at the altar.

The darkness is coming.

Dancer, Sienna

An extremely ugly man was hanging on a rope inside a dark room.

Fufufu, Goz. I never expected that we would meet again in this place.

Standing in front of that man was Regena-san who laughed eerily with a whip in her hands.

The rope binding the man's body in a turtle shell-like pattern.

The man whose mouth was gagged was moaning painfully.

His name was Goz.

Though he was quite powerful, he was still far from Regena-san, a Melusine (Dragon Woman) who instantly overpowered him and captured him.

This Goz person seemed to be an old acquaintance of Regena-san.

But looking at Regena-san's face, I guess it wasn't a good relationship.

What happened between them I wonder?

From Regena-san's expression, it seems to be something that was better left unsaid.

This place was the basement of Regena-san's mansion in the Republic of Ariadya.

The only thing that illuminated the dark room was the light from the small candle, the light illuminated the figure of a beautiful woman and an ugly man.

This spectacle sounded like an impossible situation.

Too bad, Goz. There's a magic mark left in your body. Don't expect that you can escape from us. Honestly, I'm quite surprised that Master asked me to capture you when you came to this place.

Said Regena-san as she lashed her whip at Goz's body.

U~HM!

Goz raised a shriek.

U~hm, Regena-san?

Unable to endure it anymore, I called Regena-san.

I mean, the current Regena-san was scary.

Is something the matter, Sienna-san?

Asked Regena-san as she looked at me.

Her eyes, it was the eyes of an insane person.

No, it's nothing.

I ended up swallowing the thing that I wanted to say since she was so scary!

Thus, Regena-san looked at Goz again.

Fufufu, Goz. Since I was asked to spare your life, I won't kill you. But, I'll make you taste hell on earth until you get sent back to Nargol. I learnt from Sienna-san the way to torture you without having to kill you after all. Right, Sienna-san?

I nodded upon hearing Regena-san's question.

Yeah, he won't die Maybe.

In the first place, I was the one who taught Regena-san all about torture after all.

The truth is, I received an order from Kuna-sama to gather all the teaching material of pleasure techniques taught to Ishtar's priest.

And for some reason, a material about torture was mixed in among them.

At first the letter was blurry and so hard to read but, looking at the illustration, I had a rough guess that it was something related to torture.

Regena asked me to teach her how to inflict pain without having to kill Goz.

Is it really okay to send this material to Kuna-sama without any confirmation first?

That was what I felt.

Fufufu, is it painful, Goz? Too bad, we're far from over.

Regena then took the candle.

The candle was something that I took out from the warehouse of Ishtars temple along with the rope and whip.

The items seem to be made from special materials which could inflict pain without hurting the target.

There won't be a scalding wound since this candle melts at a low temperature. But, youll still feel the pain.

After taking the candle, Regena lit it up and dripped the wax on Goz's body.

Goz twisted his body, groaning in pain.

And yet, why did Goz look as if he enjoyed it so much?

I mean, his ugly face clearly looked delighted.

His already ugly face became even uglier than before to the point that I couldn't bear to see it anymore.

Hahahaha!

Regena-san brandished her whip while dripping the wax on Goz.

Goz raised a pained scream with an entranced face.

What was this feeling I wonder? It felt as if he just opened a door to a new world.

The darkness is coming.

Dark Knight; Kuroki

Kuroki, Shirone seems to have woken up.

I received such a report from Kuna in the sweet castle.

Kuna got that information from Rena.

Thus, she told me about the current condition of Shirone.

I see Thanks, Kuna.

I only gave such a short reply. I tried to suppress my delight in front of her.

Still, I was really glad that Shirone was safe.

It was enough for me to know that she was alright. There was no need to visit her place.

By the way, Kuroki. You know right?.

Kuna looked up to me, eyes filled with expectation.

Of course I know, My Dear. Well then, there you go, Milady.

I took Kuna's hand as I guided her to sit in the chair.

Today, I would be Kuna's butler for the entire day. In short, I had to follow her orders for the entire day.

That was my punishment for making Kuna feel so lonely.

Naturally, she didn't order me to do this either.

It was a role play. Kuna was the princess, and I was her butler.

And yet, I still had no idea what a butler was supposed to do. Could I really play this role?

Uhm, it's not bitter.

Said Kuna with a delighted look on her face.

I felt relieved upon seeing that look on her.

I was just happy that she appreciated my crude work.

I once again felt grateful for having something really important.

Well then, my princess. Heres the Nepenthes tea.

I brewed the prepared tea.

Nepenthes was something that I bought from Gypseal.

Its fragrance filled the room.

Kuroki, sit by my side.

Eh? Are you sure?

I don't think a butler was allowed to do this.

I don't mind, Kuroki. Kuna herself wished for it.

Said Kuna as she smiled at me.

But then, I guess I had no choice but to follow her order.

After sitting in my chair, Kuna wasted no time to sit on my lap.

Kuna?

Yup, it's no big deal even without a butler. Let's have some tea together, Kuroki.

Said Kuna as she leaned her head on my chest.

I could feel her soft and plump butt.

They were soft and really bouncy.

Jack O Lantern. Make tea for Kuroki too.

Right away, Kuna-sama!!

Upon receiving Kuna's order, a few flying kabochi with will-o-wisp inside them replied to her.

Kabochi was a native fruit from Nargol which resembled the pumpkins on earth.

They were sweet and delicious even by simply boiling or grilling them, but they were also the ingredients for sweets.

In addition, these kabochis had spiritual power too, they could hold a life sealed within in the form of will-o-wisp.

And they could be made into jack o lanterns by giving them the scarecrow form.

This jack o lantern was the new power that Kuna learned from Heqat.

Moreover, Kuna gave him doll attire and turned him into her attendant.

Still, whenever I saw jack o lanterns in the sweet castle, the first thing that came into my mind was a horror house.

The jack o lantern then started making tea while floating in the air.

Then, another jack o lantern came with sweets made from kabochi.

Kuroki. A~n.

Kuna opened her mouth.

There you go, Kuna.

I took the kabochi sweets and then fed them to Kuna.

Uhm, it's delicious, Kuroki.

Said Kuna with a delighted smile on her face.

Seeing that smile, I couldn't help but smile too.

I felt something warm burst forth from my chest.
