My Goddess is Good at Pretending

Chapter 102: Group of Devils

"It’s Yuuki..." Ely looked up. She knew Yuuki would be angry at Sylvia.

"It’s okay. I’m ready for this confrontation." Sylvia took a deep breath and let it out slowly.

She then brought Ely to the ground and waited for Yuuki’s arrival. This nine-tailed snow fox was her friend, but she tried to kill her friends some time ago in her confused mental state, regardless of what they said. She also considered them traitors...

The temperature suddenly turned cold, and snow fell from the sky. A chunk of sizable ice descended from the sky with a helpless black dragon inside. Its body froze in the chunk of ice, only its head sticking out, and Yuuki stood above it.

The dragon was already battered, and its fire was already extinguished. It was frightened by the nine-tailed snow fox.

*Swoosh*

Yuuki immediately flew down once she spotted Ely. She kicked the frozen dragon away like a piece of garbage, and it fell down like an ice meteor.

*Bam!*

The ice meteor caused a blast, but Yuuki landed smoothly. She snatched Ely from Sylvia’s hand without further ado.

"Hey." Sylvia complained because of Yuuki’s rough treatment of Ely.

"Yuuki, it’s hurt..." Ely groaned when Yuuki gripped her hand tightly.

"Ah, sorry." Yuuki rubbed Ely’s hand to her cheek. She then glared at Sylvia. "You, are you sober now? It’s good that you didn’t hurt Ely, or I’ll never forgive you."

"The fault is on my side. Please forgive me for my previous offense. However, please don’t put the blame on me. I was manipulated, and Ely brought me back to myself." Sylvia bowed in apology.

"Yuuki, please don’t blame Sylvi. She fell into her demonic impulse because of the flawed ancient evil legacy and vampire overlord’s forbidden demonic art." Ely grasped Yuuki’s icy-cold hand and looked up at Yuuki’s cold face.

She then explained Sylvia’s situation and her intention to assist Sylvia in punishing the perpetrator and the mastermind behind that incident.

"Is that so? I expected it. This stupid devil was manipulated by something evil. Your faith is not strong enough, so your mind can be affected. After you take revenge, you will come with us to Sacred Mountain, Sylvia. You must kneel for three days before our Goddess Master’s statue." Yuuki nodded at Ely, then pursed her lips to Sylvia.

"Three, three days? Why did I need to kneel down for that long? Ely is so forgiving and kind. It wasn’t entirely my fault either." Sylvia was taken aback. She couldn’t help but complain while glancing at Ely for help.

"Do it or not? I’ll never ever forgive you, then. Since our Goddess Master isn’t around, that doesn’t mean you can be disobedient and defect. Even if it’s by the other’s manipulation." Yuuki squinted her eyes. She didn’t want to hear any excuses or complaints.

"Uh, okay then. I deserve it." Sylvia sighed. It was only three days.

"Are you still retaining your virgin blood?" Yuuki suddenly asked while looking Sylvia up and down. Sylvia’s current outfit already resembled a lust demon. Even Jophiel, the charm demoness, always wore decent dresses.

"Wh, what? What’s with your sudden question? Do you think I became a slut in my confused mental state?" Sylvia closed her legs and covered her lower half with her wings.

"So, yes or no?" Yuuki was adamant about knowing the answer.

"Yes, I’m a good devil girl. What’s your problem? I’m still the same Sylvia." Sylvia rubbed her lower abdomen, then harrumphed.

"Then, that’s good. Let’s go to kill that vampire overlord and solve your problem from that flawed inheritance. Uh, to be honest... I can’t imagine what your mentors will think when they find out about this." Yuuki wrapped her arms around Ely’s waist as she was ready to bring Ely to fly.

"If it doesn’t suit you, you can always abolish that flawed inheritance, or we may need to address the drawbacks. That’s why we need to know more about its origin. But we need to stop the war first. My disciples are still on the battlefield." Ely tugged at Yuuki’s sleeve. They had to do something for the great war before anything else.

"You don’t need to worry. The demons have retreated after your sword slash. A particular devil girl has also been defeated, and her dragon pet is there. Your disciples have returned to the Sacred Mountain. I have contacted them and Evelyn for it." Yuuki reassured Ely with a smile.

Hearing that, Ely asked to contact her disciples and Evelyn for a moment. She wished to exchange some information with them.

The demons from Demon Realm fled from the battlefield, and the alliance retreated to the border. Most of the allied forces went to destroy the Tiangong Sacred Land. Frozen Cloud Immortal Palace and Blood Moon Pavilion led the operation.

The ancient demons wished to develop their new territory. However, they returned to the Ancient Night Secret Realm to recuperate. Also, the ancient demon ancestors requested the Young Demon God meet them later.

After that, Ely told them about her devil friend’s situation in a brief summary. Yuuki and her would help Sylvia before they could return.

Although, Ely’s primary motive for helping Sylvia was that she needed Sylvia’s help. Before asking for help, it would be better if she helped the other party first.

"Master, please bring us with you! We can help you." Jophiel butted in.

"Yes, master. Can we teleport to your location now?" Gabriella agreed with Jophiel’s suggestion.

"Do you want my help, Ely? If it’s to slay the demons, I can do that too. Kirara will come with me. Her sword technique and holy light magic are super effective against demons. I also want to hit Sylvia at least once!" Evelyn exclaimed as if she was holding a grudge.

Ely’s core disciples then voiced their readiness to explore the Demon Realm and destroy the mastermind behind Sylvia’s case for their master’s sake.

"Why do you suddenly intend to destroy the mentioned demon?" Ely was a bit overwhelmed because her people begged her to come.

"Yeah, we shall destroy them if you wish, master."

"They are too dangerous to be left unattended."

"Kill the villains!"

"No mercy to the mastermind that indirectly hurt you, master."

"That stupid female devil may be innocent, but we must also punish her."

Ely’s core disciples and Evelyn expressed their desire. They then stated many reasons for them to get Ely’s permission.

In the end, Ely gave her permission. Her core disciples, Evelyn and Kirara, would come to help her assist Sylvia in bringing justice.

She also needed this reinforcement, considering their target possessed a powerful forbidden demonic art and probably a powerful backer.

*Zap*

Ely’s core disciples teleported to their master’s side, and two people emerged from the other side.

"One teleportation crystal just shattered to dust..." Kirara muttered while staring at the crystal dust blown by the wind.

"What can we do? The teleportation array is only available in the major cities of the Human Realm and the Northern Realm. We also can’t cross the realm’s boundary with it." Evelyn patted her friend on the back.

"Master, we’re at your service." Gabriella bowed respectfully, and her juniors followed her action.

"Um, we need your help. Hm?" Ely picked up a spiritual thing from Gabriella’s back. It was a sticky spiritual demonic mark. "An ancient demon marked you. This isn’t from an ancient demon ancestor. Who approached you in the last few hours, Gab-chan?"

"This... Apart from the Nightmare Demon Ancestor, only the one who claims to be the Young Demon God’s fiance. Is it possible that it was her doing? I can’t detect it..." Gabriella paled.

"Sakura should have detected it easily. No third-party marker will work in the shrine abode. Have you returned to our home?" Ely raised her eyebrows. Skyla wished to track her down.

"We just arrived at the foot of the mountain." After saying that, Gabriella immediately apologized like a child who had just made a mistake. She then ordered the other disciples in the Sacred Mountain to return to the shrine abode immediately.

"No worry. It’s just a mischief demoness and a misunderstanding. I’ll handle it soon." Ely raised her palm as she thought everything was still fine. She only needed to meet the ancient demons after Sylvia’s affairs were over.

*Zap* *Pa!*

A clear yet crisp sound resounded. Purple-blue lightning struck in various directions.

Evelyn punched Sylvia, and the latter received it without resistance.

However, a 10th Rank devil’s physical defense was too high for an 8th Rank mage to injure with a bare hand. Evelyn was venting her frustration and anger, not wanting to hurt Sylvia.

"I’m angry. I don’t really understand your overall situation. You received that shady God-tier ancient inheritance, learned flawed ancient magics, and fell into an evil demonic path. It’s good Ely can save you, or we have no choice but to kill you, then find a way to revive you afterward." Evelyn rubbed her hand and snorted.

"Ugh, I’m just unlucky, but I’m the closest to success. When I successfully refine my God-tier blood-summoning magic, I can summon our God." Sylvia rubbed her tummy. It was a little sore, but she knew Evelyn didn’t really want to hurt her.

"God? What God? Who is your God? Is that a Demon God? Ely and her disciples slaughtered that thing a month ago. Are you still one of us? All of us promised to meet in four years from that day. That should be three months away." Evelyn scoffed harshly.

"It’s our Supreme Goddess... Why would I want to deal with the Demon God?" Sylvia laughed awkwardly. God was not constrained by gender...

Ely then reconciled the two sides and returned to the main topic.

Everyone then disguised themselves as a group of devils before going deeper into the Demon Realm.
