Moses and Millie scratched their heads after hearing Blitzø's words, wishing they could strangle Blitzø on the spot!
If the deposit had already been taken, the nature of the matter changed completely.
Moreover, refusing an ordinary customer and refusing a noble were different in nature. If the former held a grudge, they could still find a way to kill the customer.
But if they encountered the latter, they could only wait for Death.
"I don't understand." Millie pinched her temples, feeling a headache. "With the Goetia Family's strength, they could completely deal with those Sinners themselves. Why would they commission us to do it?"
Blitzø, of course, knew that Stolas wanted to use this opportunity to make improper advances towards him, but he couldn't say it; he had his pride, after all.
So he could only prevaricate, "They are nobles, you know, they don't like to get their hands dirty easily."
Moses and Millie had no choice but to figure out how to complete this almost impossible task.
"If we have to kill them all, it's very difficult. I only have one arrow, and Millie only has a small knife, and you, Blitzø, you have nothing!"
Incredibly, Blitzø, as the boss, hadn't prepared any Angel weapons for himself.
Moses suspiciously asked, "You're not planning to have the two of us do all the work while you do nothing, are you?"
Blitzø turned his head away guiltily: "How could that be..."
That was definitely it. Moses had no hope for his boss's integrity.
At this moment, Blitzø thought of an idea: "Actually, the Goetia Family's biggest problem is that these bitches are constantly blocking their doorstep. If we can find a way to divert the attention of these Sinners, then we don't actually have to kill them to complete the mission..."
"Anyway, that bird Prince couldn't possibly know who these Sinners are, and he wouldn't verify their Death, right?"
This idea sounded more reliable. Moses and Millie exchanged glances and nodded slightly. This seemed worth trying.
"So, do you have any good ideas?"
Blitzø pulled out a pile of grenades from his pocket and stuffed them into Moses and Millie's hands.
"These are gas grenades; they can temporarily slow down the Sinners' movements. You might be able to take the opportunity to kill a few bitches and cause some chaos."
Then he handed them two gas masks.
"What? You're not coming with us?" The honest Moses asked.
But Blitzø said as a matter of course, "All the Angel weapons I have are given to you. How can I deal with that bunch of Sinners? Go quickly, I'll support you from a distance!"
Blitzø pointed to a nearby tall building, gave Moses a wink, and then disappeared with a few leaps.
"How could he do that!" Moses was furious, almost throwing away the gas mask and gas grenades, but Millie stopped him.
"My dear, you can't just throw these away. It's okay, as long as we're together, we can definitely get this done."
Millie's encouragement gave Moses strength. He composed himself and refocused his gaze on the Sinner Demons, but... there were still so many of them!
"Fuck Blitzø!" He cursed under his breath, then quietly sneaked into the crowd ahead with Millie.
Since Imps are generally smaller, Moses and Millie walked bent over without attracting the Sinner Demons' attention. Their attention was completely drawn to the Goetia castle.
These demons were not newly arrived Sinners; the youngest among them had actually been here for over ten years.
But it was clear that, accustomed to a World where "everyone is equal" while alive, how could they endure the result of becoming subservient after Death?
But to be honest, although Sinner Demons were not well-regarded by native demons, their status was not low.
Hell is a place where strength is admired. Sinner Demons almost immediately upon their appearance in Hell already possessed superpowers that some native demons could never acquire in their entire lives.
For example, for creatures like Imps, it is very difficult for an Imp who knows how to use magic to appear.
A long time ago, Imps were actually created to be food for other native demons. However, because Imps were good at learning and highly intelligent, they took the opportunity to rise when Hell's industrial revolution began.
And relying on some industrial technology, they gained the qualification to survive as intelligent beings. However, in front of demon nobles who followed ancient customs, the status of Imps was still very low, which is why Stella looked down on Blitzø.
Their families even kept several Imp slaves!
So, Stolas's affair with an Imp, in Stella's eyes, was no less disgusting than the cohabitation between a noble pure-blood wizard and a lowly house-elf.
Stella had shamed Stolas more than once at banquets, saying that being with him was like fucking a dead person, devoid of pleasure or passion.
She should be grateful that she reproduced by laying eggs; otherwise, the process might have been even more unbearable for her.
Returning to the topic, the reason Sinner Demons gathered in front of the Demon Lords' castles this time was to fish in troubled waters while the entire Pride Ring was in chaos.
It's a zero-dollar shopping spree; traditional skills cannot be lost. How can those at the top not engage in zero-dollar shopping?
However, they couldn't break through the protective shield outside the castle, so they could only surround the outer perimeter, cursing the Master inside with all sorts of vulgar and offensive language.
Once the people inside couldn't stand it and chose to come out, they could use their numerical advantage to defeat those nobles.
Don't doubt it, these Sinner Demons truly had such audacity.
They hadn't done it before due to historical inertia and the lack of a leader. This batch of Sinners hadn't experienced the era of being expelled by the Demon Lords, so they had long forgotten what power these nobles possessed.
The nobles, being high and mighty, always had bodyguards (yes, they had bodyguards, even though they themselves were far stronger than their bodyguards) to escort them, so they never had to personally intervene.
This led to some misunderstandings on both sides.
The nobles mistakenly believed that their title alone would deter them, while the Sinner Demons misunderstood that the nobles were not that formidable.
And the new Sinners summoned by Dane, the riots they incited, showed these Sinners an opportunity, which led to the current situation of the Goetia family.
