Chapter 280 - 280: Spreading Faith

Perhaps because he was born from his mother Lilith and the original Lucifer, Zekram Bael had never needed to bow his head before anyone except his father, nor had he ever suffered humiliation at any point in his life, even during the Great War.

He was extremely prideful of his clan's status as the highest ranked among the 72 Pillars, and because he had stood at the pinnacle of authority in the Underworld for so long, that pride had only grown until he believed himself untouchable. When he learned about Venelana's blatant affair with a man called Yusuke Aoki, he was filled with anger and disgust, and immediately ordered her to be summoned.

He was a staunch traditionalist who placed great importance on the aristocratic customs of the Devil Nobility, their ancient teachings, and their long held values, especially the purity of Devil blood. He did not view reincarnated Devils as true Devils, but as entirely different beings.

This time, when Venelana arrived alongside Serafall, Grayfia, and Eleonora, he believed she had come to acknowledge her mistakes and accept his punishment for tarnishing the reputation of the House of Bael. He was wrong. Venelana did not even bother speaking to him and immediately attacked together with the other women.

Although Zekram was powerful and the strongest member of the House of Bael, he was completely overwhelmed and crushed by the four women.

In the past, Venelana had the power of an Ultimate Class Devil, and her strength was only slightly below that of a Satan Class Devil. However, after receiving Yusuke's blessing, all of her skills advanced by four levels, and every one of her stats was doubled, granting her a full 100% increase.

This was without even including the three skills she had received from him, Immortality, Ascension Form, and Observation Haki. By now, she had become incredibly powerful and far more terrifying than before. The four level increase to her Destruction skill alone raised her control over the Power of Destruction to the same level as Sirzechs, if not even higher!

The same was true for the other women. Serafall, for example, was already considered the strongest female Devil in the Underworld. Now, she had become even more terrifying.

Zekram was unable to put up any resistance. He was utterly thrashed alongside the current head of the House of Bael, who was also Venelana's brother. By the end, the two of them had been beaten into an incredibly bloody and pitiful state.

"Venelana Gremory, Grayfia Lucifuge, Eleonora Phenex, Serafall Sitri." Zekram's face was covered in cuts and injuries, his stern features stained red with blood. If his face was in such a state, one could only imagine the condition of the rest of his body. He glared at the four women and uttered their names one by one. As for Serafall, he did not address her by her Satan title of 'Leviathan'.

He had always viewed the Four Satans as fakes, or more accurately, as little more than mascots. He had never addressed them by their titles before. He was someone who had lived through the era of the original Four Satans, and although he had opposed the Old Satan Faction, he still respected and revered the original Satans, especially Lucifer, who had created him and the other Devils.

"Do you even understand the meaning of this? Do you have any idea what the consequences of your actions will be?" Despite being beaten into a bloody pulp, he remained relatively calm, unlike his descendant by his side, who was writhing on the ground like a pathetic worm.

"Consequences? Such as what? Being antagonized by the Great King Faction? Or are you going to demand that Sirzechs Lucifer, my son, comes after me and throws me into prison? Oh, let me guess. Perhaps you're going to start a war against us?" Venelana smiled sarcastically as black and crimson Power of Destruction danced around her body. "Old Ancestor Zekram, it seems you've been in power for so long that you've forgotten the most fundamental law of our world."

"That is, might makes right!"

"..." Zekram's brows twitched. A bad feeling began to creep into his heart. The way Venelana had been acting since earlier was far too different from the woman he knew.

"But it's not your fault. It's Sirzechs and Ajuka's fault for being too pacifistic and soft. If it were me, even if I had to risk another civil war, I would've exterminated you, your faction, your Noble House, and all of your allies long ago," Venelana said calmly, speaking of exterminating her ancestor, his Noble House, and everyone aligned with them as though it were something utterly insignificant.

Sirzechs and Ajuka were both far stronger than even the Four Original Satans. By right, they should have commanded far greater respect and authority than they did. However, because they disliked conflict and were pacifists by nature, especially Sirzechs, someone like Zekram had been able to remain in power and gather many of the old fashioned relics of the past under his banner to oppose and contend with them.

"What do you want? What is your goal?" Zekram frowned and asked. He had realized that Venelana had not come because he summoned her. She had come to deal with him. It seemed that even if he had never summoned her, she had already been planning to come for him.

"We are planning to establish a new order and build a new world for our man, Ancestor. You'll be the first stepping stone toward that goal," Venelana declared as she spread her arms with a passionate and fervent tone. Her eyes glowed with a crazed, obsessive purple light, while a deep crimson blush spread across her face.

"You're crazy!" Zekram exclaimed as he stared at his descendant's crazed expression. When he looked at the other three women, he found they were wearing the same look. All four of them had their hands clasped together as if they were offering a prayer. Just what kind of insane transformation had these four women undergone to become like this?!

"Crazy? Haha, Zekram Bael, it seems you still need a little more convincing," Serafall tilted her head and grinned malevolently. "Fortunately, we have plenty of time to thoroughly 'convince' you."

"And we will be enjoying it very... very much~!"

...

"Yusuke-sama, did I keep you waiting for too long♡?"

Standing beside the fountain beneath the shade of a tree, Yusuke held his phone as he looked through Google Maps. When Yubelluna's seductive voice slithered into his ear, he looked up and saw her.

She wasn't wearing her usual outfit this time. It was summer, and she had on a white camisole that revealed a generous amount of her cleavage and left her navel exposed. A blue cardigan hung loosely off her shoulders, revealing her slender, silky smooth skin, while a pair of ripped jeans showed enticing glimpses of her thick, juicy, delicious thighs.

"Not really. By the way, you look cute in this, Luna," Yusuke said as he put away his phone and walked over to her. Wrapping an arm around her waist, the two of them began walking away together. "Where should we go first?"

Last night, when Yubelluna came back, she complained that she didn't have any new clothes, then begged him to go shopping with her. In the end, they decided to turn it into a date instead.

"Shibuya~!" Yubelluna leaned forward and kissed him on the cheek. "You're so sweet, honey!"

The two of them took the train to Shibuya because Yubelluna didn't want him to use magic or Instant Transmission. It wouldn't feel like a real date if they didn't experience everything like a normal couple, right? Where was the romance in that?

Unfortunately for Yubelluna, the train wasn't crowded for some reason, so she never got the chance to do all the naughty, sweaty things she had been looking forward to doing with him, which she found incredibly regrettable.

She had readied herself to desperately muffle her voice, cling to him to hide herself, and brace herself for the thick, hard impacts of his brutal thrusts. What a disappointment that, after all of her secret preparations, she never got the chance to put any of them to use.

"I have a question. Why are we in a men's clothing store?" Standing inside a clothing store, Yusuke glanced around in confusion.

Weren't they supposed to be shopping for Yubelluna's clothes instead of his? He already had more than five closets overflowing with clothes. Did anyone have any idea how many dates he went on every week with a harem of 20 women?!

"Shh! Don't sweat the details~! Let's pick something for you first. How about we look for matching outfits?" Yubelluna said as she wrapped both arms around one of his, pressing her large love muffins against him and completely burying his arm between them. "Let's go! I'll pick out your clothes for you! Let's gooo!"

...

While Yusuke was out on a date with Yubelluna, the Church trio were also out together.

Xenovia, Irina, and Asia went out every day, searching for people they could introduce to them their Lord and Savior.

"It's so hot today. Summer... I have such a love and hate relationship with you," Irina muttered as she leaned against a wall, taking shelter from the scorching sun. She wiped the sweat from her forehead with the palm of her hand.

"Here, use this," Asia said as she handed Irina a wet wipe, while fanning herself with her other hand. She glanced around before letting out a disappointed sigh. It seemed there weren't many candidates today who were worthy of receiving their 'teachings'.

After all, not everyone was 'qualified' to be taught by them, right?

"You're a savior, Asia-chan ~!" Irina exclaimed as she took the wet wipe and wiped her neck, forehead, and armpits. She felt so moved. Asia was always there to save her whenever she needed it. Asia-chan was just way too good for all of them!

Xenovia was squatting on the ground with her arms wrapped around her knees, her chin resting on them as she stared listlessly at the people walking by. "I miss Yu already," she muttered.

Instead of searching for random ungrateful trash so she could show them the beloved and glorious might of their Lord, Yusuke Aoki, she would much rather be out on a date with him right now.

She really wanted to find someone to vent her frustration on!

"Asia Argento... We finally met." A man with delicate features suddenly approached them. Stopping in front of Asia, he greeted her with a soft, joyful smile.

What do you think would happen when Ophis shows up?
