Nobody knows how to be a villain better than me.

A group of four...

Instantly, the same answer popped into everyone's minds, and their expressions all turned sinister.

Are you afraid I won't die fast enough? You've even activated your powers!

Samael glanced at Sakura, whose smile seemed the most harmless but whose eyes were filled with a hint of pink, and looked utterly dejected.

With the influence of the divinity of love and desire, they can't help but have impure thoughts now.

Seeing the situation becoming increasingly dangerous, Samael steeled his resolve, swallowed hard to moisten his dry throat, and forced a genuine smile onto his face.

"Actually, I can explain this..."

"Sister Lydia, he bullied me!"

However, at that moment, the silver-haired girl, who was haphazardly putting on her clothes, rushed out of the room and crashed into the arms of the Coal Witch Lydel. At the same time, she stretched out her trembling little finger and cried out in a tearful and aggrieved voice.

Incidentally, each of the twelve disciplines of the Clock Tower has a Lord, forming an intricate family lineage based on the Clock Tower.

Currently, the Lord of the Celestial Sciences is Marisbury Animusfia, the father of the little girl Olga Marie before us.

The Lord of the Plant Family is the current head of the [Acherot] family, and is the elder of the Coal Witch May Lydel Acherot.

Both belong to the aristocratic school of thought.

Simply put, the two sides have long had connections, both in terms of their political affiliations and their interactions.

As daughters of the same family, Lydia and Olga Marie had already met each other through arrangements made by their elders and had a good relationship.

After all, the two of them would be the successors of each other's families and disciplines, and candidates for the throne.

In order to solidify the relationship between the aristocratic school, a good personal relationship is the most basic element.

Since Lydia, the Coal Witch who travels the world for concerts, rarely returns home, she naturally invited Olga Marie to go shopping together during her stay in London, engaging in some basic family socializing.

In addition, to avoid an awkward silence, both sides brought along a friend.

That is, Aozaki Aoko, who came here as a tourist, and Akuta Hinako, who infiltrated the plant family through academic fraud.

So, these two groups actually came together, and it's not an accident that they both ran into each other.

Seeing her neighbor's little sister running towards her with tears streaming down her face, almost being violated under her supervision, Lydia's heart sank, and her eyes filled with murderous intent.

They even prey on children! What a beast!

Now, not only the parties involved, but also several bystanders, such as Ayaka Sajou and Reines, who had not yet expressed their opinions, became united in their hatred of the enemy.

Faced with a barrage of sinister gazes, Samael turned to look at Gray, who was probably the only one beside him who knew a little about the truth, and gave a helpless smile.

"run!"

The next moment, before Grey's bewildered brain could finish processing the backlog of information, Samael's expression hardened. He grabbed the young apprentice's shoulder, turned around without hesitation, and rushed towards the door and window.

But at the same time, the figures surrounding them all reacted in unison.

Voice of the stars, form of the universe, this is the moment of judgment, I call upon your name—the Star Court!

Themis subtly flicked the scale-shaped ornaments on either side of her wrist, the metallic clinking producing a pleasant ringing sound.

In an instant, a dense, cascading shower of starlight poured down from the dome of the Carnac Grand Mall, creating a secluded space that isolated the judicial process from outside interference.

However, even the most impartial court will inevitably be found to have loopholes when faced with a snake that is adept at exploiting legal loopholes.

Found it, on the left!

Samael slid sideways and crashed directly into the solid concrete wall. At the moment of contact, his body strangely merged into it.

As always, it uses the twelve zodiac signs as its base and guides the movement of the eighty-eight constellations.

But I'm sorry, I'm familiar with this stuff too.

Samael, who had successfully slipped out of the Star Court before Themis closed the gates, couldn't help but feel smug, a smirk playing on his lips.

But before the joyful expression could linger on his face for even a few seconds, Kama, holding a flower arrow and a sugarcane bow, stepped lightly forward through the boundless starry sky, his feet lightly touching the ground.

All around was a void, with stars rippling with magnificent patterns of light.

The water on the ground gradually spread outwards due to Kama's feet. Below Kama, countless white hands appeared, rising in a circular motion, one clockwise and one counterclockwise. As the numerous hands enveloped Kama, many more "Kamas" appeared around him.

"Boundless sounds arise from boundless realms, boundless realms confine boundless forms, otherworldly transformations are free, without physical existence—the Sixth Desire Heaven opens!"

A chant, its origin and destination unknown, drifted forth. Kama's feet gently touched the ground, and a ripple spread outwards. The white arms surrounding Kama and the other "Kamas" turned into pink fragments, which slowly merged with Kama. As the pink fragments gradually merged with Kama, Kama's hair grew longer and longer, its color changing from a mix of white and blue to a mix of red and blue.

Pairs of arms, as tender as white lotus roots, came from all directions.

He embraced a fugitive.

A land of tender pleasures, a graveyard for iron-blooded heroes.

Here, everything will be fulfilled, and everything will be consumed by love.

Finally, until you are loved—and melted.

Seeing countless Kama, some tall, some short, some fat, some young, some mature, murmuring, laughing, lamenting, and entwined, swarming forward as if a black hole devouring starlight were about to swallow him whole, bones and all, Samael felt a chill run down his spine. He immediately spread his right hand, pulled out half of an Old Testament stone tablet, and held it in front of him, like a golden meteorite passing through the overflowing cosmic figures of love and desire.

Golden flames ignite, and the flood of desire recedes.

Because God said, "No lewdness allowed!"

But just as Samael broke free from his love affair, the boundless Milky Way began to twinkle again.

"There are vast seas in the sky and prisons on earth!"

"Use the earth to ascend to heaven! Use heaven to become the earth!"

"The origin is extremely small."

"Expand to infinity."

Two distinct chants gradually merged into a unified chord amidst the echoes of the Milky Way. Two stars, shining brightly on the left and right of the void, converged and blended, like the positive and negative poles meeting in the universe, making a majestic pronouncement.

"All is contained within my heart—the crown that shines in the primordial universe!"

No way? A combination technique?!

As the boundless universe expanded before him, and the glass doors and windows connecting him to reality seemed to be swallowed up bit by bit, Samael was filled with despair.

When did they learn this?

Never mind, these women have all gone mad. If we get caught, being squeezed into snake jerky or stewed into snake soup would be the least of our worries. Escaping is the priority now!

"Grey!"

There was no time to think further. Samael looked at Gray's chest and quickly gestured loudly.

The young apprentice understood immediately and subconsciously pulled off the pendant from his chest and clenched it in his palm.

Samael then pressed himself against Grey's back, took his beloved student's small hand, and solemnly chanted.

"Glory, now!"

In an instant, a dazzling spiral beam of light shot into the sky in the vast universe.

"Holy Spear, pull out the anchor!"

The next moment, accompanied by a loud shout, the two swung their weapons forward together.

The Holy Lance Rungomminiad, the wedge of light anchored between the surface and the earth, possesses the power to cleave the sky and tear apart the land.

In an instant, under the impact of the light cone, the rapidly expanding cosmic galaxy began to collapse and disintegrate. Samael managed to touch the door and window of reality just before the barrier was formed.

However, just as the ancient snake was about to jump out of the window with a big smile, its outstretched hand touched a cold, solid cement wall.

The ancient serpent was slightly taken aback. By the time it realized what was happening, even the last trace of real touch on its hand was swallowed up by the boundless starry sky.

Ouch, what are you doing!

At this moment, Samael seemed to realize something, stiffly turned his head, looked at a certain place in the boundless starry river behind him, and uttered a grief-stricken accusation.

The primordial chaos is pierced with seven orifices; the senses, hearing and sight, are the very source of death. There is no sun that does not fall, nor is there a moon that does not sink; what is seen is not what is obtained. This is… the Primordial Chaos Formation!

So, please witness my strategy, dear former boss.

Inside the mall, a tiny blonde girl hiding behind a clothes rack in reality raised the corners of her lips in a sly, mischievous smile.

As is well known, Sima Yi's most prominent features were his eagle-like gaze and wolfish demeanor, coupled with his rebellious nature.

Clearly, Reines, now possessing this knowledge, is no pushover either, having perfectly inherited the treacherous nature of betraying her benefactor.

It's really true, why did she have to choose Sima Yi for her of all people?

Realizing that the deception tactics he had used so successfully in Tulifas had been used against him, Samael was filled with remorse. He couldn't help but glare at the betraying Reines from afar, secretly making a mental note of the incident.

When I get back, I'll definitely hang that damned traitor up and beat him to a pulp!

Spanking until his buttocks are raw and bleeding!

However, that's a story for later. Right now, he himself is in big trouble.

Who knows what auspicious day it is today? A bunch of old flames gathered in a big shopping mall, and each of them is a top-level controller.

Themis's Starry Court, Kama's Sixth Heaven, Ishtar and Ereshkigal's Primal Universe, plus Reines's treacherous Mixed Forces...

With so much control over him, even he was momentarily overwhelmed and ultimately fell victim to it, getting trapped inside the formed barrier.

There's no other way but to face it head-on.

Samael sighed resentfully, pushed Gray aside, and the surrounding starlight seemed to have a mind of its own, pulling this unrelated person out of the galaxy, leaving him all alone in the vast universe.

"Run, keep running...!"

A moment later, a suppressed angry voice came from ahead. Hinako Akuta took off her glasses, and her twin ponytails, which were tied up like those of a literary girl, fluttered in the wind. A chilling blood color was reflected in her deep eyes.

"Although I'm not from the Department of Law and Politics, with my relationship with the old man Gemstone, getting a job won't be difficult at all, believe me!"

Samael made a solemn promise, but involuntarily he was backing away.

However, the intense malevolent aura behind him sent chills down his spine.

"Putting that aside, four people? They've got some pretty fancy moves!"

Amidst the somber rebuke, Aozaki Aoko, whose black hair had turned red, emerged from the starlight, her face grim as she clenched her wrists.

"Qingzi, this is really a misunderstanding!"

Samael broke out in a cold sweat and began to explain repeatedly.

"Oh, so you're the one who had an ambiguous relationship with Orange, and behind her back..."

"That guy who hooked up with Yu-joo, two-timing without getting caught, and still making her can't forget you, impressive!"

On the left, the Coal Witch sneered incessantly, her face filled with mockery.

At this moment, Aozaki Aoko looked around at the strange phenomena and recalled the group of beautiful women who had attacked in unison. Her face gradually turned extremely ugly, and she forced out a cold voice through clenched teeth.

"Are there two? I think that's enough for a fleet!"

"A fleet? Don't have such a big misunderstanding about me!"

Samael appeared confident on the surface, but inwardly he was starting to have doubts.

I wasn't wrong, one fleet is indeed not enough...

However, whether she heard Samael's inner thoughts or recognized the true nature of the bastard in front of her, Aozaki Aoko decisively rolled up her sleeves and, with a dark face, blasted the other party's explanation back into her stomach.

"Stop pretending to be innocent with me! How could you do this to my sister! How could you do this to me?!"

Chapter Seventeen: You're utterly incompetent (4.4k)

Fate arises without knowing its origin, yet deepens with time; the attraction between the sexes is always so unpredictable.

But when it comes to feelings, you need to meet the right person at the right time.

Admittedly, due to various coincidences and fates in Misaki City, I inevitably developed feelings for this attractive guy in front of me.

But she had already stolen her grandfather's affection for her older sister, stolen the friendship between Yuuki and her older sister, and stolen the title of the Aozaki family's magician...

She has far more than the other person.

Therefore, whether out of guilt, moral constraints, or the pride instilled by orthodox education, Aozaki Aoko could not bear to continue taking away her sister's last support.

So she chose to leave and travel around.

But unexpectedly, before she could even try to forget the past, she ran into this persistent guy again in London.

Moreover, this bastard seems to have hooked up with someone else!

What's even more shameful is that it wasn't just one person, but a whole group!
