"Welcome back, Finn-sama~!"
Like a perfect, deeply devoted wife, Akeno welcomed Finn at the entrance of the shrine. She was entirely prepared to offer her body to wash away his exhaustion, yet she paused, blinking in mild surprise. Her master had returned from a single, brief outing with three unexpected women trailing behind him.
Instead of feeling jealous, Akeno found the situation incredibly amusing. She looked at the three girls—their pretty faces smeared with dirt and dried blood, their clothes ruined. Recognizing the distinct holy auras of two Church exorcists and a pure nun, Akeno couldn't help but giggle softly. She seriously wondered if the man she loved was developing a very specific, highly degenerate fetish for corrupting the faithful.
After all, Akeno herself was a former shrine maiden. Bringing home the devoted followers of the Bible was practically a running theme now.
"Welcome back, Finn-sama~!" Akeno practically purred, leaning forward so her lush, heavy cleavage was perfectly displayed. "Would you like to take a bath first? Have dinner? Or... would you like me~?"
The classic, incredibly lewd greeting caused the three holy women to freeze completely. They stared around the serene, beautifully kept Japanese shrine in absolute bewilderment. They never imagined a terrifying Ultimate-Class Devil would live in such a sacred, traditional place.
Hearing Akeno's highly seductive, shameless offer, Xenovia let out a heavy sigh. She gritted her teeth, her sharp eyes hardening as she fully accepted her grim fate.
"You two. Prepare yourselves," Xenovia ordered solemnly.
"What's wrong, Xenovia?" Irina asked, completely confused.
Asia tilted her head, looking equally lost.
"Tonight... we are going to lose our virginity," Xenovia stated with absolute, deadpan seriousness. In her intensely pragmatic mind, it was entirely inevitable. Three beautiful, helpless female prisoners brought back to a Devil's lair? What else could possibly happen? Frankly, she didn't even hate the idea. Submitting her body to an overwhelmingly dominant alpha like Finn was simply the most logical way to ensure their survival!
At least, he is strong and handsome, she thought.
"...."
Xenovia's breathtakingly idiotic logic left the other two completely dumbfounded.
Asia swayed on her feet, her face turning violently red as her innocent brain practically melted and shut down at the thought.
Irina, however, bit her lip, her eyes shining with unshed tears. "I-I suppose you're right. This is the tragic fate of a breathtakingly beautiful young woman like me. Even a terrifying Devil cannot resist my holy temptations..."
Irina suddenly pressed her hands together, looking up at the ceiling as she desperately prayed. "Oh, Lord! Please forgive Irina for surrendering her purity tonight! But this is the only way we can survive to serve You in our hearts! Please forgive all of us!"
"Amen!" Xenovia aggressively agreed, nodding her head.
"A-Amen!" Asia frantically squeaked, deciding to just blindly follow along.
Why did the two exorcists suddenly stick so closely to Asia? Because they knew Finn was planning to make her his Bishop. If they stayed glued to Asia, surely they would be safe, right? If Finn had overwhelming stamina, he would absolutely be satisfied ravishing the innocent nun!
Xenovia and Irina bet on Asia, hoping she would work as the physical shield to protect their lives!
"..."
"Finn-sama," Akeno whispered, leaning into his arm and eyeing the praying girls. "Are those two... complete idiots?"
"It's completely normal," Finn replied, his expression entirely deadpan. "They spend their entire lives locked in a church praying, or out on the battlefield swinging swords. They have absolutely zero common sense. Treat them like heavily armed toddlers."
"Ah, I see," Akeno nodded, completely understanding. "That makes perfect sense."
"....." Xenovia and Irina remained perfectly quiet. They weren't deaf. They heard the insult, but as weak prisoners, they didn't dare talk back.
"I need to take a bath," Finn sighed, wanting to scrub the lingering stench of Freed's exploded blood off his skin. "Akeno, can you lead them to the guest bath and find them some rooms?"
"Leave it to me, Finn-sama~!"
As Finn walked away down the corridor, Akeno turned back to the three girls. Her sweet, subservient housewife aura instantly vanished, replaced by the suffocating, terrifying pressure of a High-Class Devil's Queen.
"I assume you girls are fully aware of exactly how ruthless my lovely master can be, right?"
"....." The three girls gulped simultaneously.
"E-Excuse me, can I ask a question?" Xenovia suddenly raised her hand.
Xenovia, you idiot! Don't provoke her! Irina practically cried internally.
"Yes?" Akeno smiled, though her violet eyes were completely devoid of warmth. "You may call me Akeno. I am his Queen."
"Akeno-san..." Xenovia swallowed hard. "Your master... what exactly is his name?"
"His name is Finn Balam. He is the sole heir of the Balam Pillar," Akeno answered smoothly. "He is quite famous in the Underworld. Recently, he effortlessly crushed the user of the True Longinus in Hong Kong. Have you heard of it?"
"....."
The three girls turned completely pale.
"T-The True Longinus?!" Irina stammered, her knees knocking together. Cao Cao was the absolute strongest human alive, and Finn had crushed him?!
"Yes," Akeno nodded, her smile widening into a deeply sadistic, chilling grin. "Even knowing that... if you girls want to try and assassinate him tonight, you are more than welcome to try."
The three girls shook their heads so violently they almost got whiplash.
"Good," Akeno's smile finally reached her eyes. "Since he brought you here, I trust you won't mess around. Because if you cause any trouble in my shrine, I will personally punish all of you. Do you understand~?"
Akeno fully embraced her terrifying heritage. Under her father's brutal training, she had grown incredibly strong. If Xenovia or Irina tried anything funny, Akeno knew she could effortlessly fry the two exorcists into extra-crispy chicken. As for Asia? The cute, trembling nun was entirely harmless.
"You're all foreigners, correct?" Akeno asked, changing the subject.
"Um, yes," Xenovia nodded.
"Ah! Actually, I'm originally from Japan!" Irina quickly chimed in.
"Perfect," Akeno clapped her hands together. "Irina, you can lead the other two through the proper bathing etiquette. Once you're all completely clean, come straight to the living room. We will have dinner together."
"...." The girls hesitated.
"What is your answer?" Akeno's voice dropped an octave, dripping with a cold, absolute authority.
"YES, MA'AM!" the three girls shouted in perfect, terrified military unison.
"Good. Now go. You all stink," Akeno huffed.
"..."
No woman, holy or otherwise, liked being told they smelled. But they had to admit, she was right. Xenovia and Irina were covered in sweat, dirt, and dried gore. Their skin-tight latex suits were torn and sticking uncomfortably to their bodies.
Knowing they couldn't fight back, they obediently wandered down the hallway. They stared in an absolute daze at the breathtaking luxury of the estate. The outside of the shrine looked modest, but the interior was renovated with obscenely expensive, high-end materials.
When they finally reached the massive, spa-like bathing area, Akeno pointed inside.
"The baths are through there, and the living room is down the hall. Wait for us there when you are done. I need to go help wash Finn-sama's back~!"
As Akeno happily walked away, aggressively swaying her large, heart-shaped bottom, the three girls stared after her in a heavy silence.
"She is absolutely going to have sex with him in there!" Irina shrieked, her face turning as red as a tomato. "That woman is completely corrupted! I've read explicit doujinshi about this! The pure shrine maiden always turns into a mindless, sex-crazed whore after an alpha claims her body!"
"Irina, calm down!" Xenovia said, though she looked genuinely stressed.
"Xenovia, what are we going to do?! What if he does that to us?! What if we turn into drooling messes just like the girls in those hentai stories?!"
"Keep your voice down," Xenovia said, her stoic face attempting to project calm logic. "We are not weak-minded heroines. We are hardened warriors of God. Even if that Devil is physically overwhelmingly strong, it doesn't mean he has infinite stamina in that specific area. And as we just saw, his Queen is incredibly lustful. She is practically a succubus! She will drain all of his energy in the bath, leaving him completely exhausted! He won't have any stamina left to claim us tonight! Be positive, Irina! We will not fall like the degenerate women in the smut you secretly read in the chapel!"
"I-I do not read smut in the chapel!" Irina squawked defensively.
As the two exorcists fiercely debated their sexual survival strategies, Asia, who had been completely silent, timidly raised her small hand.
"Um... is it okay if we just take a bath now?"
"..."
Xenovia and Irina paused, looking at the innocent, blushing nun.
"Okay," they sighed in unison.
Yet, the absolute second they stripped off their ruined, sweaty latex and submerged their tired, aching bodies into Finn's massive, luxurious indoor hot spring... all three holy women let out a synchronized, deeply relaxed moan.
They all shared the exact same, sinful thought: A Devil is just unfair!
