My Goddess is Good at Pretending-Chapter 598: The Laid Out Plan

"They’re avoiding us, it seems." Fortuna murmured as she tried to find the imperial family’s ancestor.

"That’s really hard to believe since he actually summoned someone from Earth. We’re currently in the universe’s higher layer..." Gaia still found it hard to believe. Based on the information from the girls, the Glorious God wasn’t that powerful, but the hero summoning was successful even though it was an accident.

"Well, that’s life. Things don’t always go as planned. The unexpected things, even the most unreasonable ones, often happen." Lifa faintly smiled and shook her head.

"They are such a cheat. Imagine someone who had spent years of diligent hard work being defeated by the blessed child who just entered the field for a month, especially that white-haired guy." Nell observed the summoned heroes more closely.

"Nee, I just looked deeper, but the Great Demon Kings Of Hell only numbered six. If they took the names of the seven deadly sins, then who disappeared from the Hell thrones?" Morfina mentioned it to everyone, and the other conversations soon stopped as they felt intrigued about it.

"Yeah, I just realized it. If they are the overlords of Hell and are the embodiment of the seven deadly sins, why are there only six of them?" Sylvia rubbed her chin, pondering about it.

"I guess, the other one has fallen? There will always be many overlords who rise and fall in history." Ella guessed the obvious.

"What do you think, master?" Lynn looked up.

"We just encountered a former overlord of Hell a moment ago, and this demonic beast was no longer bound by the infernal rule. If there were only six supreme overlords of Hell instead of seven, then one of them would have definitely fallen. They are actually enemies with each other." Megami rubbed the curious Lynn as this young soul fox lying on her lap.

Luna was currently with Elysia, and Lynn somehow became a bit spoiled, sticking close to her since they arrived at the Imperial Arena.

"O-oh~ above the overlord is the supreme overlord. It’s like the King to the Emperor, right? So, the one who forms a contract with the fake hero is the highest-level bigshot in the Hell Realm." Sylvia dropped her fist onto her open palm.

"That one is most likely Pride, the Demon King of Pride. According to history, he is the 2nd strongest Demon King of Hell." Morfina checked her notes and told everyone confidently.

"Wow, the 2nd strongest final boss. He is truly something else, huh. However, Miko already went to warn that boy last night. He’s cooking up some deep schemes, it seems." Vanessa was shocked a bit. She perked her ears and tried to observe the fake hero more closely.

"Then, do you know who is the strongest one in the Hell power rank?" Evelyn tapped her cheek. To suppress the 2nd, they might need to do something to the 1st as well.

"That’s most likely Wrath, the Demon King of Wrath. The one who held the contract with him was renowned to this world. He is a high devil in the Demon Realm, and his name is Alucard." Morfina showed the list to everyone.

She only had some info regarding the three strongest Demon Kings of Hell, namely Wrath, Pride, and Greed. Unfortunately, the last one had yet to form any contract since the previous contractor died three hundred years ago.

"Well, I wonder where you got all that info in such a short time, Morfi. You haven’t been in the Chthonic World for long. Even Vann is clueless about this." Dory found that a bit odd.

"Hehe, I asked for help from the Blue Soul Fox’s intel and Xentia’s super network." Morfina put the credit to Lynn and Xentia.

"Hum." Xentia nodded in reply.

"It’s not that hard. Vann is clueless because she only minds her own business like a wild cat." Lynn waved her hand.

"Yeah, what can I do? I’m a traveling hunter tiger in those years." Vanessa shrugged. Her sole purpose was to find any clue about her missing master during those five years, and she literally had no interest in any unrelated matter.

"Yuuki, can you feel something strange from up there?" Yae pointed to a particular direction in the sky.

Yuuki glanced at the fairy on her shoulder and then looked up. She could faintly feel someone else was observing the arena from there. "Hmm, yeah... I can feel it."

"Oh my, so they’re hiding there~ Should we greet them and ask them for an explanation?" Gaia faintly smiled as she put her hand to her cheek.

"Leave them alone for now. They don’t want to see us now." Megami extended her hand to the side, preventing Gaia from leaving.

"If you say so. They may be embarrassed to face us after realizing that our heroes are superior and are lenient to the summoned heroes." Gaia stepped back and nodded. Tomorrow they would ask everything directly to the Glorious God, so she had no urgency right now.

"We recently hired two high-ranked demons. The first one is a former overlord of Hell, a guardian-type demonic beast. The second one is Envy, the Demon Queen of Envy." Megami informed everyone, especially Ella, Morfina, and Yae.

"E-eh?"

"Uh-huh?"

Ella and Morfina gasped in shock. They did receive the early notice that the trap would involve a guardian beast, but they never expected that their master would summon one of the Great Demon Kings of Hell!

"You are truly overbearing, master. It was her good fortune to seal a deal with you." Lynn’s eyes lit up in amazement, understanding what her master would do by bringing such a powerful great demon into the plan.

"Wow, it’s not someone who forms a contract with a demon, but a demon who forms a contract with a Goddess. The demon who reaped people’s souls will get her soul reaped this time, keke~" Sylvia couldn’t help but laugh in amusement.

"Wait, Ely summoned a Demon King of Hell? She is currently in the Caelum World, right?" Lifa felt a little worried.

"We need to challenge the world law’s authority. The heretics who oppress the Elysion Church need to be destroyed with the same scheme as they do to harm our people." Megami heaved a subtle sigh as the things were a bit complicated to explain, but she had to let everyone know about it.

She then shared the laid-out plan that Elysia had spread to happen next week. Ella, Morfina, and Yae were already informed about the retaliation plan. However, who would be involved at that time was not only the Elysion Church and the factions under its banner. Sacred Sakura’s entire forces would intervene if the enemies crossed the lines.

After everyone understood, Ella then shared her testimony about what happened in that world.

"They really wanted to kill, so they should be prepared to get killed, right? How dare they ambush our sister?" Lyla clenched her fist as if she was eager to punch the offenders.

"Hum, Ely wants to keep them busy with the Gray Vault Mine. They will suffer greatly under that demonic beast, but the full retaliation will have to wait until next week, huh." Nell crossed her arms and nodded in agreement.

It was such a vicious plan, but it was necessary to wipe out the enemies.

"The heretics, eh? They bring trouble no matter what world they are in." Darkness sighed, feeling a little fed up with the so-called heretics.

"Aren’t you a devil, a high demon? The heretics should bring you benefits, right?" Vanessa found it a bit strange.

"Nah, they’re the wretched ones. I will never want to answer their calls and pleas even if they present me with huge prices and sacrifices." Darkness pursed her lips with disdain. She didn’t even want to remember the last time she dealt with the so-called heretics.

"Let the purge happen." Gaia agreed with what would happen next week. She couldn’t even remember how many heretics she had purged in her lifetime, but she would gladly add to the count.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the quarterfinals of this incredible Martial Arts Competition! The battles have been fierce, and now we’re down to the finest fighters left standing." The emcee opened the quarterfinals and then introduced the two warriors who would fight in the first match.

In the blue corner, the leading hero of humanity, the White Hero, entered the arena on foot. He resorted to no fancy moves, just a casual walk to the arena.

And facing him, a knight of divine strength and unparalleled combat prowess, wielding both sword and shield in perfect harmony, the Godly Warrior leaped from the Elysion Chruch’s quarter and landed on the arena smoothly, leaving no impact on the ground.

Mashiro and Michael faced each other with their respective resolves and motivations.

"Show me the best of your capabilities, White Hero. I’ll focus on defense, so try me with no worries." Michael held his shield with both hands, ready for full defense.

"I don’t doubt your ability, but I hope your shield barrier is powerful enough to withstand my sword, Godly Warrior." Mashiro said it not out of arrogance, but because he had yet to encounter any situation where he really needed to unleash his full power.

If he got pushed into a corner, he might unleash his full power or desperate measure unconsciously. Thus, he really hoped the Godly Warrior’s shield was powerful enough to prevent serious injury or even death.

"Warriors, are you ready? The stage is set, the crowd is waiting, and let the battle begin!" The emcee announced the start of the match with great enthusiasm.
