At the Aldridge Empire’s seaside resort spot, Oldrango City’s coastal region, near the center of Phoenix Island, the ancient Victor Magic Ruins where the final round of the “Night of the Witches” was being held. To fight against the Creator power of the Alessandra Academy’s seven-colored rainbow tower, Bella did not hesitate to use the “Original Sin Pentagram” array in an attempt to suppress the rainbow tower with the five towers forming a pentagram formation.

As a result, the ritual was botched. The “Original Sin Pentagram” that was originally used to summon Demon Kings ended up turning into a “Pentagram of Bonds” that summoned other beings such, Sacred Demon God Samantha’s big sister, little sister, her “imaginary friend,” and the “cameraman” in charge of recording the memory, and a mysterious Creator.

The Chief of the World Destructors, the Demon God Emperor of Demise, the Leader of the Chaos Bringers, the Ruler of the Void, and the Forsaker had appeared in shadow forms. Their bodies were not here, so these couldn’t even count as doppelgangers. The only one present in their true form was the mysterious Creator, who was unwilling to reveal their identity. Seeing that they had become conscious, Bella chose to stay silent for a moment to see what would happen next.

The Creator had completely turned into a phantom state and no longer participated in anything that happened next. Currently, Bella didn’t have the time to explore the origins of this mysterious Creator. Her top priority now was to deal with her big sister, her little sister, and her imaginary friend.

“Seriously, sister. This pentagram array of yours is too inferior. You were only able to summon a residual phantom of mine. However, it’s wonderful to know that you’re fine.”

“Big sister, it’s bad enough I was summoned here as a phantom, why did you summon that annoying woman here as well?”

“You brat, are you looking for a beating? I swear I’ll hit you, and don’t think I can’t do it just because we’re in a phantom state right now! Hurry up and disappear. You’re in the way. If it weren’t for you back then…”

“I was doing it for big sister’s sake, you big-breasted woman! As the Chief, shouldn’t you understand why I had to do that? I really wanted to…”

When she saw the Demon God Emperor and the Ruler of the Void bickering just like before, Bella felt inwardly relieved. If they were still in a phantom state, that meant they couldn’t see Bella’s true appearance and could only sense that it was Bella who summoned them.

Similarly, Forsaker was also unable to see Bella. She had also used telepathy magic to locate Bella. When Bella met with the Forsaker 1,300 years ago, she was already in this state. After meeting again in this current timeline, Bella found that this Forsaker was still in the same state as when they just met.

After sensing Bella’s gaze on her, the Forsaker made a gesture of silence, clearly signaling for Bella not to reveal her presence. Like back then, the bickering Demon God Emperor and the Ruler of the Void did not realize the Forsaker’s existence. They were only able to sense Bella and each other’s presence. They didn’t even notice the mysterious Creator who was watching the show right there.

“Big sister, little sister, please don’t argue anymore. Can you lend me a hand?”

“Sure, but sister, can you tell me your current location?”

“Just tell me what you need to do, big sis. You better not tell that big-breasted woman where you are. Things will go out of hand if that one moves her true body over.”

“You brat, you really are annoying. So what, you think you’d be fine if you moved your real body over? Little Sister, it’s fine even if you don’t tell me the location now. I don’t want that brat to go over and annoy you.”

The Demon God Emperor and the Ruler of the Void were bonafide siscons. They didn’t even ask what Bella wanted them to do and immediately agreed to help without any thought. Bella was seriously wondering if the two of them would hesitate if she asked for them to destroy the world.

Fortunately, the Demon God Emperor and the Ruler of the Void both did not want the other to find Bella first and would rather hurt each other so that Bella would not reveal her location to the other.

Bella took the opportunity to pull the wool over their heads this once. Based on the tone of the Demon God Emperor and the Ruler of the Void, these two top-tier existences were very likely to be in the same dimension as she was now, but were unable to find her for certain reasons.

The pentagram array that Bella made was incomplete. Otherwise, she would have been able to summon the Demon God Emperor and the Ruler of the Void completely. Right now, the reason why she was only able to summon phantoms of them was only that the array was incomplete. Bella had seen the Ruler of the Void once using a surrogate, so she probably knew what continent Bella was active in.

Not only had the Forsaker met Bella in the timeline 1,300 years ago, but she appeared with the Ruler of the Void’s surrogate last time when she tailed her, so she had seen Bella in the current timeline as well.

The only one who hadn’t seen Bella yet was her big sister, the Demon God Emperor. The Demon God Emperor spoke in a very imposing voice, but much more of it was her concern for her little sister. Based on the scattered contents of her argument with the Ruler of the Void, Bella vaguely figured out that the Sacred Demon God had secretly come to this dimension with the Ruler of the Void more than ten thousand years ago without the knowledge of the Demon God Emperor.

As for what happened between the Sacred Demon God and the Ruler of the Void, Bella had no idea. It was something that happened before she transmigrated into the body of Sacred Demon God Samantha. Anyway, that incident made the Demon God Emperor very angry, as if she had lost her little sister.

Right now, as both the Demon God Emperor and the Ruler of the Void were present, even if Bella had questions, she couldn’t just ask the Ruler of the Void head-on. There were a total of six people who were involved in that event. According to Bella’s scattered memory fragments, six of them were the World Destructor Camp’s Demon and Evil Gods, while the other three were the Chaos Bringers brought along by the Ruler of the Void.

Combining what happened when Bella transmigrated over, she estimated that the two World Destructors who came with Sacred Demon God Samantha back then were Great Dark Demon God Angel and Great Dark Evil God Mia. Neither of the two was part of the top ten in the World Destructor Camp and were also loli beauties like the Ruler of the Void. The chances of them receiving a call to action from the Ruler of the Void were high. After all, it was easy for them to find a common topic.

However, from the current state of Angel and Mia, they didn’t remember what had happened back then and had selectively lost part of their memories. If Bella wanted to know the truth, she couldn’t count on them for the time being.

One of the Chaos Bringers who participated in that event was Ruler of the Void. She wasn’t sure who the other one was, but Bella could identify one of them being the erotic loli, Time Space Demon Noesha, who was highly likely to have participated in it. She was the No.3 Chaos Bringer. Noesha’s mouth was also shut tight, so Bella probably wouldn’t be able to get anything useful out of her. The only ones left who knew what happened back then were the Ruler of the Void and another Chaos Bringer, who Bella couldn’t remember for the time being.

Bella entrusted them to help her in destroying the rainbow tower, then they won’t have to bother these super bosses for the rest of it. For something as easy as this, both the Demon God Emperor and the Ruler of the Void easily agreed. It wasn’t something that was difficult to do, and a nod from the onlooking Forsaker counted as a response to Bella’s question that she was willing to help.

Bella never needed to ask in the first place as the three of them would accept any request without question. No matter how unreasonable it was, it was no big deal to them.

The next part was much easier. The Demon God Emperor, the Ruler of the Void, and the Forsaker all directed a tiny bit of their energy into the pentagram array. That mysterious Creator had already inserted their energy into the array long ago. Finally, after Bella inserted her own energy into it, the pentagram array began to emit a dazzling glow.

Bright glows of the same color as each of the five towers appeared above them. Purple, black, white, blue, and gold, all five lights shot out from each direction and intersected in the very center of the pentagram. The rainbow tower that was still standing firm earlier with the barrier of the Creator’s power had instantly turned into an almost paper mache-like state. When the energies crossed, it exploded as the witch at the top of the tower fell along with the entire magic tower.

Once this was over, the world regained its color. The originally black and white world was gone as Bella had returned to the bustling Victor Magic Ruins arena. When she saw the rest of the magic towers, she found that the beings atop each magic tower had disappeared without a trace as if they had never been there. It felt like that encounter from before had happened in a parallel world.

The audience only saw the moment when the five magic towers emitted the five-colored glows and knocked down the Alessandra Academy’s rainbow tower. They weren’t able to see anything apart from that. After seeing the rainbow tower defeated, many of the spectators fell to the ground on the spot with stimulation, not because they had witnessed some sort of amazing miracle, but because they had bet all their money on the Alessandra Academy.

The Alessandra Academy’s defeat left many spectators to a fate of sleeplessness tonight. They had lost all their money, their bets washing down the drain. Due to the undefeated legend of the seven-colored rainbow tower, many gamblers blindly followed along and bet all their money on the Alessandra ACademy like crazy. Practically nobody bet on any of the other academy’s magic towers.

However, Bella did not have the time to consider the feelings of these gamblers. She tried tentatively to ask the girls around here and realized that she was the only one who knew what had happened earlier. Even the powerful Renegades who were nearby Bella at the time, Mage Ariel, Puppet Master Elaine, and Priest Isaman, had no recollection of that period. They only remembered Bella casting some “Original Sin Pentagram Array,” as it stopped at that with no recollection whatsoever.

There was likely someone among the four who had a special ability to selectively erase the memories of others, but she wasn’t sure who it was specifically. The only thing she could be sure of was that none of that was a dream. It really happened.

Other than the mysterious Creator, the appearance of the three phantoms left proof of their existence to Bella. The relationship between that mysterious Creator and Sacred Demon God Samantha did not seem like that of a friend, so they did not leave anything to prove they had just been here.

What the Demon God Emperor left Bella was a black diamond-shaped gem. Unlike obsidian, this black gem contained pure dark energy and was also black to the core. Bella had only put the gemstone in the palm of her hand, but she could feel such a strong burst of cold reaching her soul. However, Bella had no idea what it was about the cold, but it made her feel very comfortable.

The Ruler of the Void left something closer to her identity as a loli. It was a delicate pink music box inlaid with gems of various colors. For safety reasons, Bella did not open up the beautiful music box for now. Even though she really wanted to hear what sort of melody the music box would play, this wasn’t the right place for it.

The item left behind by the Forsaker was a hidden ring, the size of which fit Bella’s right ring finger perfectly. This Forsaker really was a qualified “friend” to send her a gift like a ring. Bella was temporarily unsure about the power within this ring. Just like the music box, Bella also did not put on the ring out of caution.

These beings who sent Bella’s gifts had forcefully shoved them onto her without her knowledge. The gap in strength between them was already obvious from that. Fortunately, the three of them had a good relationship with Sacred Demon God Samantha. Two of them were siscons, and the other was something like an imaginary friend.

No matter how evil or merciless they were rumored to be in the outside world, they at least had an affectionate side to them in front of Bella. For Bella, that was enough. When the previous Sacred Demon God Samantha had no idea how to balance out her relationship with the three, she would only smile silently and avoid their strange gazes.

It was Bella’s turn to take on the old veteran’s role this time. She won’t be like the previous generation Sacred Demon God Samantha and not dare to meet the gaze of the Demon God Emperor and the Ruler of the Void that was clearly beyond just sisterly friendship. Bella was the type who would never refuse a girl, and since the Demon God Emperor and the Ruler of the Void had such intentions, Bella wasn’t concerned about any taboos or whatever. Be it a big or little sister, she would just take them all.

Bella carefully put their gifts away for now and did not use them. Since she had no idea if they had any GPD functions, Bella could only put it away for safekeeping. She did not want to be found just yet. Once the Demon God Emperor or the Ruler of the Void’s true bodies appeared, it would alarm multiple forces to come to scout, and Bella was not yet ready to face multiple of them at the same time.

Due to an “accident,” the Alessandra Academy’s rainbow tower became the first to withdraw from the “Night of the Witches'” final championship round, so the rest of the event became much simpler. Since it was a battle among themselves, the intensity of magical attacks was not as intense as the beginning of the finals.

In the end, the Olsylvia Academy’s purple tower won the championship of the girls’ final of the “Night of the Witches” event, while the Listabel Academy’s white tower and the Dimiost Academy’s black tower received second and third place, respectively. Other than the rainbow tower that was instantly killed off in the beginning, the remaining five towers help up until the end of the competition, making it the largest number of towers left in the final round in the history of the “Night of the Witches.”

Bella’s purple tower and the other academies’ magic towers were all on the same side, so everyone was only putting on an act. They wouldn’t go all out for real. In the end, they judged the amount of damage done to each tower as a means to judge who the strongest among them was as all five were still standing. After Bella’s purple tower became the champion of the “Night of the Witches,” the Olsylvia Academy instantly pulled away from the Alessandra Academy, which was in second place in the Twelve Academy Exchange Tournament, continuing to lead first on the leaderboard.

However, they couldn’t be happy just yet as the Alessandra Academy would likely catch up in the boys’ “Night of the Mages” event after this in a desperate fight. The key battle that would determine the final score difference between both sides was the final round of the “Light of Dawn” event, the large group battlegrounds for martial professions.

Even though the “Light of Dawn” event was still split up for the boys and the girls, the boy groups of the Alessandra Academy and the Olsylvia Academy both lost during the advancement round due to an early confrontation and did not make it to the final round.

So, the final score difference could only be determined by the girls’ group in the “Light of Dawn” final round as the girls of both groups made it through the advancement round. Of course, if the boys of the Olsylvia Academy could win the “Night of the Mages,” then the Olsylvia Academy’s final score against the Alessandra Academy would be higher regardless of it they win or lose in the later rounds.

However, the Olsylvia Academy’s boys’ group lost very quickly. The crown was handed over to the Alessandra Academy, not because the boys were no good, but because the “cheat” students didn’t participate. The male Saviors, God Chosen Knight Scott and the others, had all gone to fight in the solo events and did not have the time to participate in the group event, which led to the Olsylvia Academy losing to the other academies in the “cheat fight.” So, Bella and the others still had to win the finals for the “Light of Dawn” event.

Bella and Kriss had gone to survey the arena ahead of time. Based on the information they obtained, there was an entrance in the arena that connected to the Cursed Land. Some people with ulterior motives wanted to take advantage of the crowd to open the sealed gates and release the strongest Demonic Being from the Cursed Land.

The Cursed Land’s Demonic Being was at the same level as Collapsing Evil Dragon Emperor Lolita and Devouring Holy Dragon Euphenisia. Bella speculated that it might be the Forsaker who was sent to keep watch over the Cursed Land. Phoenix Artificial Island was the Manasvir Empire’s property, which was also considered Bella’s property. As the “landlord,” Bella didn’t want anyone to destroy her property. If that were to happen, her summer swimsuit party would be ruined.
