Chapter 1863: Before the Ship Party Starts 3

Not long after Tiamat was moving down the stairs, she found the person she was looking for.

[Ah, Tiamat. Where have you been?]

[I just ran a small errand earlier Sorry to keep you waiting, Phenex.]

There stood a petite woman with long emerald hair, and her figure, adorned with many frills and a cute dress, exuded a hint of childishness.

It's the Humanized Phenex, who, like Tiamat, is one of the Ten Demons, and the two, who are good friends in their private lives, often work together on such occasions.

[There really is quite a lot of sorrow in this world. I'm especially careful when dealing with the weak. It's not good for the soul to be with someone who could kill you if they wanted to.]

[Is that so? I've never really cared about beings whose existence doesn't give me pleasure. If they can't give me pleasure, they're just worthless in my world and I'm not interested in them.]

[Fumu, I think the weak and tender-hearted and precious though]

[Isn't it fine? If Tiamat thinks so, then in Tiamat's worldview, that is right and true. People's sense of values are varied and wide-ranging, and as long as you're clear with your own standard of values, that's all that matters.]

[I see Talking with Phenex has been quite constructive.]

Phenex has a dry personality when it comes to matters she isn't interested in, but she isn't so shallow as to refuse to accept those with different values. She understands and accepts that her values and those of others are naturally different, and that what she perceives as worthless may be important to others.

However, even if that is the case, Phenex remains in her stance in regard to things she doesn't care about. And so, while she acknowledged Tiamat's sense of value, she responded in an uninterested and noncommittal manner.

After lightly smiling at Phenex, Tiamat, seemingly having remembered something, spoke.

[You two You aren't going to indulge your vile fetishes at a party hosted by Miyama-sama an act unbecoming of the Ten Demons, right?]

[ [ .. ] ]

Tiamat and Phenex quickly looked away at Pandora's question. In any case, they had no room to refute. The fact is that they actually did feel excited and their minds had transitioned into indulging in their fetishes.

[This time, I've been tasked by Shalltear-sama to monitor the movements of the Ten Demons, which includes you two. Listen here, if you dare to act foolishly, I will deal with you at my discretion]

[Ahh~~ It's over. If we really mess around even a little bit, we'll be sealed up and thrown into the sea.]

[As expected of Shalltear-sama, but having Pandora-sama, who is quite thorough in carrying out her duties, watch over us, she managed to contain Pandora-sama and us all together How sorrowfully brilliant.]

Yes, even though she was angry, Pandora also has a dangerously peculiar fetish, being a sadist towards others and a masochist only towards certain individuals, which often makes Kaito and Alice scratch their heads.

However, Pandora never lets her fetishes surface during missions, carrying out her orders seriously and perfectly.

Therefore, Alice gave Pandora an "extremely important order" beforehand, to monitor and supervise the other Ten Demons, taking steps to prevent the Ten Demons, including Pandora, from going out of control.

In fact, it was so effective that with an expression Tiamat and Phenex were dragged away with chains wrapped around them, looking as if they had realized everything and had given up.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [Just when I was getting a better opinion of you last chapter, you actually went and did this!? Come to think of it, these two are 9th and 10th in the hierarchy, right? Phenex is higher than Tiamat?]

? ? ? : [No, the reason these two are lower in the hierarchy is because they take time to vent their fetishes on their missions. Phenex, after enjoying herself with her fetishes for some time, carries out her mission quickly, but Tiamat, after she has finished, comes back after a while crying (writhing in pleasure) with the grief of having lost her close partner (as she sees it), spreading ultrasonic waves and destroying the surrounding area Taking into account the damage she causes to her surroundings, Tiamat is placed in 10th.]
