Chapter 336: Real Madness

- Craaaack!!

"Keuaaaaah!!"

The Bishop's desperate scream echoed through the forest.

“Even after all of this, you still won’t talk?!”

"Kkeeeek!!"

"Ah, is the secret code 'Kkeeeek!!'?"

Ferloche looked at him and casually asked with a bright smile.

"Egeuk, uuuuuh..."

"Egeuk, uuuuuh? Your articulation is hard to understand! Speak properly!"

"Ebeub, euuu..."

However, the Bishop continued whimpering while staring at Ferloche with a terrified expression.

"Gosh...."

Ferloche lifted him by his collar, looked down with cold eyes, and whispered.

"Speak properly, you pig."

"Ughiiii..."

Trembling while looking at her, the Bishop went limp.

- Drip...

At the same time, his lower garment becomes damp.

Overwhelmed by fear, his expensive priest attire was now stained yellow.

"...The hell?"

Staring at the scene expressionlessly, Ferloche shook her head and then muttered with a sunny smile.

"Huh? So, it was because your jaw was completely smashed, and your regeneration became weird? You should have told me earlier!"

The Bishop's head exploded with a popping sound the next moment.

"I can fix it right away if I do it like this!"

Without a hint of expression, Ferloche casually extended her hand and started emitting divine power. As she did, the Bishop's head rapidly began to reconstruct at a fast pace.

"...P-please. Spare me. Spare me."

"What are you talking about? I have no intention of killing you, Your Excellency."

As the Bishop stammered with his face fully reconstructed, Ferloche tilted her head and threw a question.

"Even if I want to kill you, I can't, right? Even if I smash your head, pierce your heart, or turn you into ground meat, you keep coming back to life, don't you?"

"...Just let me die."

Finally realizing his situation, the Bishop spoke detachedly, but Ferloche remained indifferent.

"So, you can't die, right?"

"Keuaacckkk!!!"

Holding a club, Ferloche swung it down onto the Bishop's lower garment, trampling it. Then, with a bright smile, she spoke.

"You chose immortality, didn't you? Then you have to endure it."

"R-release me. I'll let it go in front of you and kill myself. If you find a mage or a sorcerer... Kkeeeeek!!"

"For someone with a gaping mouth, you seem to talk quite well!"

Just as she said, Ferloche punched him, tearing the Bishop's mouth apart.

“If you give up so easily, what happens to all the things you did to gain that power?”

Just like that, she kicked the Bishop, who was slumped on the ground while covering his mouth.

"You offered innocent children as sacrifices and buried the ex-ex Vice Commander alive when she was trying to expose the truth, right?"

"Kkeoeok..."

"With those powers obtained through such despicable deeds, you should live with it for a very, very, very long time!!"

Then, Ferloche swung the club at the Bishop. However, she widened her eyes and suddenly shouted.

"Uh. Oh. Oh. Oh. This is bad."

"Gu?"

"The club is broken."

Gazing at the broken club, she tossed it to the ground, Ferloche looked around and mumbled.

"Let’s see what is suitable... Aha."

Then, she picked up something lying shattered on the ground.

"S-Saintess... I made a mistake... Please forgive me...!"

It was none other than the ex Vice Commander who had launched a sneak attack on Ferloche a few days ago.

"I-I'll do anything. I was wrong. So, please, just don't swing me like before..."

"The club... talks, huh?"

"Kkkeuk."

Ferloche tilted her head, grabbed the ex Vice Commander’s legs, and lightly slammed her to the ground, making her unconscious.

"S-Sister!!"

Seeing this, the Bishop, with wide eyes, shouted.

"...Uhhng... Huuuh..."

- Boom, boom, boom!!

"Kwaack!"

The Bishop, shedding tears as he witnessed his younger sister, hanging limply with her legs held by Ferloche, soon found himself smacked by his sister who was swung by Ferloche.

"D-devil... Devilish bitch...!"

"Right? She does seem a bit like a devil, doesn't she?"

"W-what?"

“Due to feeling envy towards the ex-ex Vice Commander, she joined in on your plan, sacrificed the ex-ex Vice Commander's younger sibling, and then buried the ex-ex Vice Commander alive when she investigated the case. What a fitting member of the Sun God Church!”

"How did you... kugh..."

"Originally, I planned to trick you into thinking that she was me and letting you torture her! However, no matter how many times I tried, this way seemed like the most dreadful punishment for you!"

As he stared at Ferloche with trembling eyes, the Bishop was struck again by his sister and started rolling on the ground.

"So! What's the secret code!"

"I-I said I'll tell you! The code is the true su— Kkeeeeek!"

"Geez, you're quite persistent!! Are you still not going to tell me even when you're at death's door?

Despite the Bishop's willingness to talk, Ferloche continued swinging her ‘club’.

"His Holiness, the Pope will excommunicate you!!"

"How can a mere pope excommunicate the Saintess? You clearly didn’t properly study the doctrine!"

"Y-You! Aren't you afraid of hell!!"

"I can handle hell! I've already conquered it twice!! Of course, it got reset each time because he wasn't there!!"

"A-aren't you terrified of the Sun God!!"

"Lameeeee! Besides, I have the Creator God backing me up! So, don't you dare mess with me!"

Swinging her ‘club’ while countering the Bishop's words, Ferloche soon turned her gaze quietly to the side.

"Ah, it's broken."

"Kkrrrk..."

With that, she transmitted a bit of divine power and casually tossed her special club to the ground.

"After all, I'm currently infiltrating this hideout. No one knows what I'm doing here."

"This... how could you call this an infiltration..."

Behind her, the cave that had collapsed into a flat plain was clearly exposed, and around it were lined with numerous fallen paladins and soldiers, foaming at the mouth.

Even from the Bishop’s perspective, who had been relentlessly beaten by Ferloche for hours and was in a state of panic, this didn't seem like an infiltration.

"You don’t know? If no one notices, it's infiltration..."

However, Ferloche spoke confidently.

"...Huh."

After slowly turning her head to the side, she soon tilted her head and opened her mouth.

"Hey, who's there?"

And then, a moment of silence began to settle into the clearings.

Behind the bushes, both Frey and Ruby were crouching, trying to hide their presence.

"Did I look like that to you?"

"..."

Seeing the devastation that Ferloche caused, Frey asked Ruby in a low voice, but Ruby just gazed at him blankly.

There’s another crazy bastard here.

She desperately hoped all of this was just a horrible nightmare.

.

.

.

.

.

"...I don't really know."

"Stop your nonsense and analyze her quickly."

I watched Ruby with a detached expression for a long time. When she looked at me cautiously and spoke, I took out my fist, shook it, and pressed her again.

Of course, this was an expression of affection. Hitting her was an act of affection, so shaking my fist was definitely an expression of affection.

“To put it simply... While you draw a line and constantly step over it, that girl goes beyond that, she’s jumping rope with that line.”

Ruby flinched upon seeing my fist.

She hesitated for a while before answering.

I didn’t quite understand the meaning, but it seemed like Ferloche was one step above me in terms of craziness.

And I agree with that.

"Look at this, Vice Commander! We’re playing soccer with your brother's head!"

"Stop... Stop it..."

"But, Your Excellency, you're not dying even if I do something like this to you, right? Didn't you sacrifice children in order to be immortal like this? What's the use of being immortal if you haven't played soccer with your own face? I’ll make sure you get the full experience today!"

- Swoosh...

"Why the hell are you doing this? What's the purpose? Just tell me right here. Don't talk about acts of affection or anything."

"Purpose?"

"I’m talking about the reason you keep inflicting pain and giving me medicine since earlier...!"

"Well... you see..."

Hearing Frey's words, he gave her a lovely smile, touched his cheek against hers, and whispered in a soft voice.

"It’s just because I like you."

"Please stop with the crazy talk..."

"Haub..."

"Uwaa?”

Ruby looked at Frey with a vacant gaze as he started nibbling on her cheek.

"You're my favorite in the world, Ruby."

"...!!!"

Upon hearing those words, Ruby's eyes started to tremble slightly.

"You... How dare you say such things..."

However, she soon shook her head resolutely, determined not to give any openings, and she began to try to cool her head.

- Thump, thump, thump...!

"Heheiiik..."

However, on the contrary, her stomach, and heart began to heat up like crazy. It seemed almost inevitable.

- Thump, thump, thump, thump...!

"Huh, hua. Huwaaaa..."

"Ruby."

Due to her heart pounding like crazy from Frey’s actions, Ruby started to hyperventilate. Frey then softly whispered to Ruby.

"Is your heart pounding again?"

"..."

“You know what happens next, right?”

And in the next moment...

"Kehek!!!"

Frey grabbed her by the neck and lifted her up before forcefully slammed her into the ground.

"Ugek..."

Then he forced his fingers into her mouth, and started to play with her tongue.

"W-wait a minute..."

His fingers then slowly left her mouth, passing over the chin, down the neck, beyond the chest, and ultimately reaching her abdomen.

- Srrk...

After taking a moment to linger there, Frey's hand gently pressed and caressed her stomach before lifting her top.

"Eeuu..."

Revealing Ruby's milky skin.

- Thud...

"W-Wait..."

- Ssk...

"Uck..."

As Frey's fist briefly clenched on her exposed skin, making a slicing sound as it withdrew, Ruby anticipated the impending pain and tightly shut her eyes.

- Smooch...!

"Hwbub!?"

However, Frey, who had been on top of Ruby, suddenly leaned down and inserted his tongue into her mouth.

- Crunch...!

Momentarily surprised by the sudden turn of events, Ruby attempted to retaliate by biting his tongue. However, due to the system's defense mechanism, all Frey felt was a ticklish sensation from her biting.

- Thud...!!!

"Eubuebueuup!!"

While their tongues danced around each other, Frey suddenly punched Ruby’s healed stomach, causing her to writhe in pain.

- Smoooch, smooch...

Simultaneously, Frey's tongue delved even deeper.

- Sskkk...

"Eubeub..."

Although Ruby didn't let out an unseemly scream, she winced in fear and closed her eyes as the fist that had dug into her abdomen withdrew again.

"...Eup?"

Strangely, the fist doesn't come crashing down on her even after a considerable amount of time.

"Eubeeek!?"

As Ruby slowly opened her eyes, she could see Frey’s innocent smile, and with it, the second punch landed on her stomach.

- Smooch...

Their tongues were still connected.

- Thump, thump, thump...

For some reason, Ruby's chest continued to pound fiercely.

- Crash, crash, crash...

The consecutive third, fourth, and fifth punches landed squarely on her stomach.

"...! ...!"

Despite contorting her body in various ways and attempting to entangle Frey's waist with her legs, she could only helplessly endure the punches starting from the sixth.

- Squish...♡

"Heueu..."

From this point, Frey's rough hand returned to her neck.

This can't be... No matter how I looked at it... I was...

As she suffocated with her abdomen being vigorously licked by his tongue like before, one thought popped into her head amidst the bursting bubbles.

Being devoured by him...

Just a few days ago, this was something she hadn't even considered.

Damn it... I don’t want to be devoured by him... No...

- Thump, thump...

"...Heu."

Though Ruby had been trying to muster the strength to resist, the increasing intensity of the pounding in her heart made her unable to do anything but let out strange moans with each punch.

I’m... the one that should devour him

Before she knew it, she was being devoured by Frey.

"My heart is pounding just like yours."

S-stop this nonsense... Frey...

After managing to weakly lift her head, Ruby responded to Frey's murmurs as her consciousness faded.

...I’m the one that should do the devouring...

"I truly love you, Ruby."

...

At that moment, Ruby's consciousness was severed.

.

Meanwhile, at that moment...

"H-h-h-h-hello."

For some reason, the seemingly fine Bishop stood frozen in the underground cave, staring at the human shadows before him.

- You're late.

- Being tardy is not like you.

The shadows glanced at him, and with that, they started whispering among themselves.

- Well then, let's begin the meeting.

As the central figure among the shadows began to speak...

"Behave yourself, Your Excellency."

Behind his massive figure, Ferloche murmured in a chilling voice.

"If you don't speak as I instruct..."

"Euaaahhh!!"

However, as the shadows in front of him became clearer, the Bishop suddenly shouted.

"P-please save me!!!!! Your Holiness!!!!"

"Huff, damn it."

"T-the Saintess is heeeeere...!"

In the next moment, the Bishop's body exploded, scattering blood and viscera in all directions.

"In the end, the infiltration failed."

As the shadows, bewildered by the sudden turn of events, began to stare blankly, Ferloche sat crookedly and mumbled.

"I almost succeeded."

"Keu-kyaaaackkk!!!"

"W-what is this...!"

"H-how did the Saintess end up here...!"

"Forget it, let's just start the executives meeting."

She spoke indifferently, with a truly regretful expression on her /genesisforsaken
