The Fourth Volume: Fading from the World - Chapter 302: Siblings, Sin Annihilation, and a Dog Girl

Temporary shelters for children in residential areas

"... And then, the Queen and the Princess lived happily ever after. Congratulations!"

"Great!"

"Tell me one more! Tell me one more!"

Please!

"Yes, yes, yes... how about another 'The Little Mermaid'? The story of a righteous Witch from the sea helping a cute little mermaid defeat an evil prince on land..." (Author: Huh? The plot seems a bit off?)

"Yay~~~~~~~"

Xiao turned to a new page in her storybook and began to tell the next story, and the children listened attentively.

Sigh... why am I destined to be a nanny no matter where I go? -- Xiao sighed.

Ye was comforting soldiers and refugees, Xiao Wu was idly training soldiers, Haoyue was interrogating the Saintess, Bradwich siblings were discussing future actions, and he was volunteering with children among the refugees...

Wait, where did Givinia go?

"Ah--ah--ah--I'm so tired I'm about to vomit blood..."

The moment I entered the staff room, I plopped down on the only sofa, my carefully maintained saintly image completely crumbling. I was utterly exhausted! Not physically, but mentally!

"Well, you'll get used to it. After all, you are the 'Blood Emperor'."

Loxue suddenly revealed a somewhat sly expression, which caught my eye, but her next words dealt me a heavy blow.

"As a spiritual leader, these are your daily tasks. However, I was quite surprised to learn that you also have powerful healing abilities. I'll be relying on you to heal large groups of wounded soldiers at once in the future."

"Hey, hey, hey, do you think healing is as simple as just soaking them in blood? Different people have different constitutions and injuries, so the amount and speed at which life force should be infused are also different. Too little and it won't heal properly; too much and it will cause even worse reactions. It's incredibly energy-consuming!"

"Cooperation, oh cooperation, wasn't that what you proposed in the first place?"

"... Don't even mention it, I'm starting to regret it. Anyway, where's Nid?"

"He's gone to maintain his sword; he'll be back soon. That sword is very important, and he never entrusts its maintenance to anyone else."

"Oh, right... So what are your next plans? The Torres Ecclesiastical Province has been taken over by the Revolutionary Army. Are you going to advance into other provinces?"

"Over the past two hundred years, Blood Edge has been accumulating power while secretly infiltrating the upper echelons of various religious provinces over a long period of time. Guess how many religious provinces are now in our hands?"

"Hmm... if we include Torres, two?"

"Wrong, if you include Torres, there are four."

"Oh--wait, wait, wait!? There are only twelve provinces on the mainland, doesn't that mean Blood Edge takes up a third of them?"

"Now you know the source of our confidence in confronting the Divine Law Cult, but we've only publicly announced two: the Torres Ecclesiastical Province and the Kasser Province. The other two are secretly controlled through puppet regimes."

"Wow, that's amazing... Wait, the Kasser Province, could it be—"

"That's right," she smiled slightly, "It was the province where the former Blood Emperor, the blood-stained Saintess Ai Kasser, used to reside. That was originally the Blood Emperor's hometown, and after she joined the Revolutionary Army, it naturally came under their Revolutionary Army."

"Home..."

Blood Fiend, is that your hometown?

Perhaps, the Kasser Province is where it all truly began.

I'll have to go check it out when I have time.

"Hmm... Miss Tartaglia is a bit slow."

"Haoyue? Where did she go?"

"Torres Saintess, who was brought back as a prisoner, is the Valen facto Archbishop, but there are some technical issues related to the Sanctuary that only Saintess knows. However, because Saintess is protected by very powerful divine magic, Mind Reading and the ability to expel truth pills are ineffective; only traditional torture can be used."

"... I have a very bad feeling."

What would happen to the person tortured by Haoyue...? I really don't want to imagine it. After all, she's a monster who only follows her own sense of good and evil and her own code of conduct. It wouldn't be surprising if she did something.

Where's Xiao Wu?

"Miss Xiao Wu is currently training the soldiers, and it seems she won't be back for quite some time."

"Then we'll just have to wait."

At that moment, neither I nor Loxue knew that a monster was hidden on the outer wall of the staff room.

The so-called staff room was actually a small lounge inside the Torres Cathedral. Its location wasn't particularly prominent, but its window offered a clear view of every detail of the square outside the Torres Cathedral, providing a very unobstructed vista. This is why it was used as a temporary staff room.

"..."

Outside the lounge window was a steep wall, its specially made white stone brick surface remaining weathered even after a thousand years, instead becoming increasingly hard. There were some reliefs and protrusions on the wall, but they were far too weak to serve as footholds, not to mention that anyone who climbed up the wall would be spotted by the guards below, as a person on the snow-white wall would be far too conspicuous.

But the Sin Annihilation easily hid next to the window.

She was currently clinging naked to the wall outside the window, but this didn't mean the guards outside could appreciate her exquisite naked body, because her skin had turned completely white like rock, and even the texture of her skin was as rough as stone, making it impossible to detect from a distance. More importantly, she had completely stopped all biological activity of her body, like a stone without a trace of life, and even the pink-haired woman couldn't detect it.

She is waiting for the right opportunity.

When Grand Master Nid returns and the three of them are together, they will use the strongest sacrifice to wipe them all out.

"...!" Here it comes.

The handsome man in the dark red trench coat approached, his hand lovingly stroking the blade of the Greatsword. He was also unaware that an assassin was lurking outside.

He made his move as soon as he entered the staff room... Hmm?

The fourth... no, the fourth and fifth people are getting close.

"Sister Xue, I'm back... Oh? The Blood Emperor is back too?"

"You're too formal, Blood Emperor... Just call me Ye."

"Then, Sister Ye?"

"When did I get a younger brother...?"

If possible, I'd like a cute little sister/girl. Now that I think about Ally, Alice really doesn't know how lucky she is.

For some reason, I feel a little uneasy.

It feels like being hit by static electricity, a tingling sensation on the skin, as if something is about to happen...

Alright, the three highest-ranking members of the Revolutionary Army have all gathered together.

A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

It's time to take action.

"Offered with the abdominal cavity and brain... huh?"

Well, that's settled then~

"..."

We were dumbfounded.

When I saw someone suddenly push the door open and enter, I thought it was an enemy attack, but it turned out to be Haoyue.

The problem is the one following behind her.

She was a beautiful woman around twenty-five, with a standard, extremely bad mature woman's figure.

However, she is now walking on all fours like a dog.

Thick ropes bound her body into a perfect turtle shell bondage, and a leather collar was tied around her neck. A long chain was attached to the back of the collar, and the other end of the chain was held in Haoyue's hand, like a dog leash.

"What... what is this...?"

Loxue was stunned.

So that's how it is, completely turned into an animal... It's a little better than I expected.

"Let me introduce you to our adorable canine Saintess —Laika Torres~~"

Haoyue zipped up the zipper, and Miss Saintess immediately trembled, scrambling forward on all fours.

"Woof... woof woof woof, I... I'm a lowly little bitch Laika, please... please, masters, treat me well..."

She spoke with a flushed face, her expression one of extreme shame, but there was a strange sense of pleasure hidden within that shame, as if she couldn't help but enjoy the fact that she was appearing before others in such a vulgar and provocative manner.

"How is it? If time weren't so tight, we could train her even better. But this is enough to get the information she needs. Right now, she's completely obedient to us."

I was prepared to see the Saintess's flesh minced up; she's just so lucky to have been trained to be a dog.

Loxue quickly accepted reality. After all, all she wanted was a result. Regardless of the means, getting information was good enough.

As for the innocent young virgin Nid -chan--

"Eh, what's going on? Waaaaaahh..."

... It seems even the most basic training play is too stimulating for him. Hey, hey, hey, this is just training him into a dog, not completely [beep--] genitals, and certainly not shaved into [beep--] or made into [beep--]. If I were in his shoes, at best I'd use his blood to congeal into tentacles and ravage him, at worst I'd create a whole bunch of Blood Beast to take turns on him, driving him insane in no time. (Author: Stop! Stop! I've already been taken away by the anti-pornography office once! I don't want it to happen again!)

"Uh... Miss Tartaglia, my brother... as you can see, has an exceptionally high level of virginity, which is very exciting for him."

In fact, even before Loxue could say anything, Nid had already assumed a posture of dejection and bent forward, moving outwards.

"Well, you guys chat first, I'll go check on the army..."

After saying that, his face flushed, he stormed out of the door, slammed it shut, and ran away.

"... I'm talking about Loxue."

"Um?"

"This kid, as the commander-in-chief, certainly has strong leadership and combat capabilities, but he seems to be quite bad at handling matters between men and women. Who knows if he'll fall for a woman in the future?"

"This is also what I'm struggling with..."

"... It failed."

Those Sin Annihilation to the outside had to admit that this attempt had failed.

She was about to unleash a powerful surprise attack when the Qipao Woman and the dog-like woman suddenly appeared, scaring the leader away.

This meant that the three top leaders, who had already gathered, were separated again, making it impossible to take them all at once.

However, the Sin Annihilation was not discouraging.

Because she simply didn't have those feelings.

If one attempt fails, try again.

And--

"Blood Emperor..."

Previously, the commander-in-chief seemed to have addressed the pink-haired woman as "Sir".

So... the pink-haired girl is actually the one with the highest status?

That makes things much easier.

Start with her—but not now.

There are plenty of opportunities.
