Assassination Through the Netherworld - Chapter 78

The three of them didn’t leave the establishment yet.

With jealousy, both girls also snuggled against the other sleeping beard that by now adopted the name of ‘Teddi’.

The bear wasn’t concerned or knowledgeable enough in the arts of language to spit blood at her new name, she just snuggled against Vera comfortably and let the humans do their human things.

Vera and Fayette had a big argument about the name, the former wanted to address the bear as ‘Teddi’ but Fayette wanted to name her ‘Nou’, meanwhile Valentine lay against his own, thinking of naming her ‘Destroyer’ or ‘Murderer’.

He was never good at names.

Sadly, he wasn’t allowed to go with that as both girls literally threw themselves at him after Fayette lost the competition for the bear’s affection, ultimately Teddi still choose Vera.

Now, he lay together with ‘Miki’ snuggled in her warm volcanic-like body as the bear slept, actually… not snuggled, locked.

“So? What’s the plan now?” The girls caressed their cute-looking callisto bear and asked about their next

“The plan now is to sneak our way through that gate like little weasels…” That’s the most difficult part of the plan, according to their intel, there are at least five demon soldiers… he didn’t expect that there were so many, it made him wonder how rare are Demon Soldiers exactly and whether

“Like this? we’re anything but ‘little’.” She pointed at the two giant bears that would be perceived the moment they left this arena, the moment they leave this establishment, attention is going to be against them across the departure endeavour.

They can only leave once the plan is clear.

“You get me.”

“And then?”

“Run… run and get wherever we reach first, slaughtering anything ahead for friendship exists no longer past those gates.”

“Sounds poetic.” Vera giggled, she knows she’s gonna devour every core she finds in the way.

“But truthful.”

It’s time to leave and the first thing is to make sure that there won’t be an issue taking the bears.

“Y-Yes, you can definitely take them.” The scared vendor was together with Andrea somewhere else.

“I take it my responsibility with you is done, right? a deal is a deal and the pub is mine~” Andrea approached Valentine and even focused at only him as if the other two girls didn’t exist, there were literal hearts in her eyes.

Two piercing gazes immediately punctured her seductive face, but demonesses are shameless.

“Yours it is.” He said and didn’t pay much attention to her, she did as they requested, this is an equal exchange.

What he wasn’t expecting tough was that the demoness would take his palm and kiss the back of it!

“If you ever want some other service, please come to me first! I’ll do my best and it will be for free, you don’t even need to give me any wisp of your soul, okay?~” The red-skinned beauty moved her blouse a little and flashed him a nipple with a wink!

So long as she can get to be this strong protector’s little bitch, what pub!? she can have anything she wants!

“GET OUTTA HERE!” Two wild cats lunged at her and the girl had to reluctantly release her new crush’s hand to run for her life.

“HYAAA!!”

The two ladies came back to find Valentine with the two mounts placing them on top of the bears.

They were sad that the head of that demoness was not in their hands, that bitch knows how to run.

“You two are exaggerating, she just took my hand…” He snickered inwardly and ignored their bloodied gazes.

“Shut up! I’m about to throw boiling water to that face of yours!” Fayette threatened, there is no doubt the demons are lustful whether it is males or females, but why are those demonesses so brazen with him?!

‘It’s as if we don’t exist!’ they get thoroughly ignored each time…

“Then you have to throw some on yours as well, you think I have not seen how those demons look at you!?” He threatened back with poison, she attracted gazes wherever she went and it wasn’t only her, Vera too, the difference is that a gaze from him was enough to deter any ‘stupidity’.

‘You get close, you’re fucking dead.’

That’s what his gaze said each time, but this isn’t something the girls have noticed.

“They’re not offering US sex!”

“She didn’t offer me sex… she offered her services…” He continued to deliberately piss her off, Fayette’s jealousy is amusing… until she takes a knife to cut your dick, even Vera laughed as she knows he is just playing around.

“…” Boiling point.

“Yeah yeah, don’t worry, I only have eyes for two people…” He had to embrace the two of them before Fayette brandished her knives, it’s clear she still isn’t over his ‘infidelity’… he will have to work hard to get things back to how they were, even if she’s the jealous type, she’s never this possessive.

“I know, don’t worry Vale, I trust you~”

‘You’re too naive Vera…’ Fayette sighed and released her clenched hands, she knows she’s still holding a grudge, more from Sasha’s last ‘service’ than the lovemaking session with Vera included.

Maybe she’s still angry that she was too powerless to do anything except for watch…

“See? I got these mounts for free, the vendor was too scared of me to even argue, wanna try?” He pulled both of them to the awaiting bears and when they nodded, he lifted them up to try and feel how a ‘ride’ would be.

“Try riding them around this arena to get comfortable.”

“Okay…” sighing a heated breath to release her stress, Fayette did as he said and tried to get used to riding Miki, as if aware of Valentine’s intentions, the bear did as asked and started to walk around the arena with Fayette on top, she guided her with a reign.

“It’s… easy?” Vera said, doing the same, with this comfy mount, it wasn’t as uncomfortable as she expected, although definitely different than a horse.

“It’s because we’re going slow… once they start to run, it will be more hectic.”

“We don’t have the place to test it, let’s take these out and head to the southern gate…” Valentine got on top of Miki and the three of them started to make their way out, attracting gazes through the entire slow journey, they were the only ones that had such mounts.

Adding the cloaks that barely concealed their faces, the bags and weapons… they seemed like members of the Elite.

The Demon Soldiers that worked as guards of the city only gave the three of them a brief glance before leaving… Vera made sure to conceal her knife, they could be recognised because of it.

Still, even Demon Soldiers know they shouldn’t mess with protectors until necessary.

…

Once they reached a relatively safe distance from the gate, the plan began and he sighed, there are five Demon Soldiers with heavy armours and on top of that a little more than ten common demons… none of the bulky ones looks weaker than Bellcroft.

“I’ll head first and then make a distraction with my girl here, once you see the gate is clear, chase and support engaging from their backs, our objective is not to kill all of them, the objective is to survive and escape.” He said with determination, it won’t be easy but they need to get away from this city, he could feel several gazes on him as if someone had already realised their identity.

Better to fight five demon soldiers than twenty.

“Why is your plan always to risk your life?” Fayette’ rubbed her forehead in exasperation, he’s always the bait.

“It’s the most efficient way to do it, if we all head there at the same time, we risk that their battle power will be higher than our joint forces… at least like this, you two can engage from the back while they follow me. It’s how I rock and roll~”

He tried to reassure them, this is the way he does things, attacking head-on, Rose used to get worried whenever she was at the other side of the intercom, and ultimately, he died because of it… but it’s worth it.

“I never liked rock and roll.” Fayette groaned and got down from Miki towards Teddi, she readied her arrows, best case scenario is that these arrows will go through a demon soldier’s tough skin, surprisingly, they’re of the best around, she’s sad that after firing them, she likely won’t be able to recover them as they’re moving.

“What is rock and roll?” Naturally, Vera is too ‘old’ to know of these things.

“…”

“We have to teach her a few things.”

With all the plans laid, Valentine took a deep breath and started to move forward, but it was then that someone spoke all too suddenly!

“Hey my friend~ it’s been a long time isn’t it?”

!!!

“Y-You are…”

It’s the vagrant from back then, and he is together with someone.

“You are that bastard from before!”
