Just as Dane was attempting to tame the Sinner Lords, the riot caused by the Sinner Demons gradually began to spread, even affecting the territories of some native Demon nobles, including the Goetia Family.
"I can't believe they would let these lowly things assault our territory!" the mistress Stella shrieked wildly in the castle.
Her husband, Stolas Goetia, had been trying to calm her, but clearly, his attempts were not very successful.
Stella's magic echoed through the castle, causing the surrounding load-bearing walls to tremble.
Their daughter, the young Demon Octavia Goetia, sat expressionlessly on the sofa playing video games. From the interface, it seemed to be a casual game of massacring humans. She paid no attention to her mother's yelling.
Stolas had a headache. Stella was completely impossible to communicate with. He had almost forgotten why he married this woman in the first place.
"You married me for my family's power, you perverted Imp-lover!" Stella continued to shriek.
Stolas immediately realized he had been mind-read. He quickly sealed his mind, his four eyes furrowed as he said, "You shouldn't do that?"
Stella sneered. She was a Demon, and a noble among Demons. She did whatever she wanted!
"You'd better figure out a way to solve the problem outside. As a noble Demon, I don't want to dirty my hands doing it myself!"
This was also why Stella was stamping her foot here but not acting; she was unwilling to lower herself to do such undignified things.
But throwing this task to Stolas was fine. After all, he usually enjoyed mingling with those lower Hell creatures.
Stolas's eyes darted, and he said thoughtfully, "Perhaps we can find some killers to clear out these Sinner Demons..."
Stella immediately sneered, "Are you going to find your little male prostitute? A filthy, despicable, hopelessly weak Imp? What positions do you use with him?"
Octavia's expression was about to break. She tried hard to pull her hat down, attempting to block out her hearing.
But Stella's shrill, abusive words still poured into her ears. Although most of Stella's insults were directed at another unknown Imp, Stolas's face turned pale and then green, looking very ugly.
Clearly, insulting the Imp had struck a raw nerve in his heart.
In Hell, there is no unified standard for morality. Everyone is already a Demon; you cannot expect them to adhere to human moral principles.
Therefore, here, your sexual orientation can be freely chosen. Bisexuality and pansexuality are very common here, and even more perverse orientations like zoophilia, necrophilia, and fetishism are rampant.
Demons' approach to relationships is very wild and direct, purely carnal desire. To satisfy their desires, they will try anything and dare to try anything.
But that doesn't mean they have no taboos.
For noble families like the Goetia Family, regardless of the sexual orientation of its members, he or she must marry an opposite-sex partner who is also a noble and produce offspring.
This is a responsibility they cannot refuse as Demon nobles, which is why Stolas married Stella. Their union is essentially no different from human political marriages.
As long as pure-blood offspring are successfully born, it doesn't matter how decadent the nobles' lives become afterward. Doesn't it have a medieval Western vibe?
Anyway, that's all Westerners pursue.
Therefore, Stella was very aware that Stolas had an affair outside, and she even knew who the third party was.
But what she couldn't tolerate was that her husband was actually seeing an Imp!
An Imp, the lowest race in Hell, until a thousand years ago, these creatures weren't even considered intelligent life; they called them animals, Reserve rations!
Stolas tried to soften his tone: "My dear Stella, I believe Blitzø has enough ability to help us..."
"Based on what? His status as an Imp, or some impressive magic?" Stella still sneered, "He's a loser! His company is full of Imps, oh, and a Hellhound."
Then she pointed at the "mob" outside the castle barrier and roared, "But out there are a bunch of Sinners!"
Stolas still tried to persuade her: "But Blitzø and his team are very experienced..."
"Enough! You just want to use this opportunity to fool around with that Imp! Do you think I don't know about the 'good' things you two did in my bed! You are as dirty and despicable as that demon!"
Stella looked disgusted when she said this. She now slept in a separate bed from Stolas, but she didn't like sleeping in their original marital bed either; she felt sick!
Stolas was speechless. Although Hell had no human morals, among the noble families who valued decency, marriage was still a relatively serious matter. Cheating with an Imp was a major stain on Stolas's reputation as a noble.
Among other things, in noble circles, Stella was often ridiculed by other demon nobles. Although those nobles also had their own problems, this still made her very unhappy.
Octavia could no longer endure it. She perfunctorily said, "I'm leaving," but no one heard her.
After a long time, and it's unclear how Stolas managed it, Stella finally roared, "If they can't solve this problem, I'll twist off his ridiculous Joker head and kick it around like a ball!"
After her roar, Stella stormed out in a rage, then opened a portal and disappeared to who knows where.
At this moment, Stolas eagerly picked up the old-fashioned telephone and dialed the number for Immediate Murder Professionals.
"Hello~ Blitzø, my dear~ Have you missed me lately~ Wait, wait, don't hang up yet! I have a job I want to give you..."
"It's a very simple job, you know, just like what you usually do, killing things and such. You should have seen the riots happening nearby recently. I need you to help me clean up the surrounding trash... And by the way, the reward is generous~"
After chatting about some unspeakable things for a while, Stolas happily hung up the phone, completely disregarding Stella's earlier roar.
Meanwhile, in the Immediate Murder Professionals building, the Imp boss, Blitzø, whose half-face was White, urgently summoned his employees after receiving the commission.
He had several red buttons under his desk, one of which was for emergency summons.
But when he arrived at the conference room, he found he was the earliest. The other members only arrived yawning half an hour later.
"When I press the emergency button, it means I have an urgent matter to discuss. What's wrong with you bitches? Why are you so late? You were just next door!" Blitzø said, furious.
