Sins Paradise: Domination System

Entering a slightly luxurious room that was designed like a guest room, complete with a king-sized bed on the corner, I was asked to sit on a soft couch in the middle of the room.

Misa almost immediately undressed, starting with her black cape. Her face was still red from embarrassment, but she continued nonetheless.

"What are you doing?" I asked in a confused tone as I looked at her from where I sat.

When I asked, her cape was already on the ground. Her shoulders were exposed, and she looked at me shyly when answering.

"Umm, preparing for the punishment? Aren't you going to… punish me like the church knights in the Academy City, Your Holiness? I heard from Archbishop Sana back in the Holy City that you… loved to spank them and squeeze their breasts as punishment, so…"

Saying that, she grabbed her leotard's shoulder strap and took it off slowly.

"I am trying to make it easier…"

"Stop that." I sighed and held my head.

So it was Sana who spread the news. I meant I spanked those female knights because I wanted to play around with them. Besides, I did so due to their requests after watching me screwing Rania and Sophia. Also… Well, it was part of Sophia's fault that they became a pervert too.

Still, I knew that my reputation within the church became like this due to my own fault, and the female members were always happy to give their bodies to me. I just didn't know that they were this eager.

'I should've held myself back then. Now, I am troubled with their desires. If not for my engagement ceremony and the quest I need to finish, I will happily embrace a beautiful woman like Misa. But I have priority. My bad.'

"I won't punish you like that. Just wear your clothes again and sit. I need to hear the interrogation result that the church got from Jonathan and Colten Steelwill."

Looking flustered, Misa quickly fixed her clothes and took the cape from the ground.

"M-My apologies. I was getting ahead of myself. Please forgive me, Your Holiness."

"I don't mind. Just… Tell me the information that the church gets. I believe you just finished interrogating them, seeing how we met near the underground entrance." I gestured for her to sit next to me.

While I didn't want to give her expectations or punish her, those thighs and ass still looked… really juicy. She also wouldn't mind if I touched her, so… I would take it.

'I sound like a pervert, but still… She seduced me first even when I never said I would punish her or do anything to her.'

"Yes, we just finished a few minutes ago." Misa embarrassingly took a seat close to me. "And we indeed gained a little information. One of them is so adamant about praying to their 'God' that the former Viscount even refused the blessing from our priest."

"Hmm?" My hand stopped mid-air before it reached behind her as I heard something that caught my attention. "Refused the blessing from our priest? Did you mean that <Holy Magic> has no effect on them?"

"That's precisely it. Only my <Holy Bind> or Lv 5 or above <Holy Magic> seemed to work on Jonathan Steelwill. His son, another follower of a fake religion, can receive <Holy Magic> above Lv 2. We tested it, and <Cure> worked on him, although it was hurting them rather than healing them."

My expression turned serious. It wasn't the time to caress her thighs or ass, no matter how much they invited me.

It was different. My <Holy Magic> still worked on the cultist caught in the Capital City. And the fact that <Holy Magic> also didn't work on a Human like Colten was strange.

'Is it because Colten is a follower of the Hell's Cult?' I mused in my mind. 'Jonathan is a Devilkin, so it's not strange that <Holy Magic> hurt him rather than heal him. No, that's not the case. Even Adam can be cured with <Holy Magic> even though Beatrice turned him into a Devilkin too.'

So, what was different?

I held my chin and thought deeply. The only thing that made them different was the fact that Beatrice, a primordial Succubus, turned Adam into a Devilkin while the others were Hell's Cult followers. Although she was born in Hell, she didn't really have hostility against the Goddess.

'Ah, is that the reason?'

<Holy Magic> was something that the Goddess controlled directly. She also had something to do with the System and could influence it slightly.

'Maybe she designated those with Hell's Cult in their title to be harmed by <Holy Magic>. Knowing that the title also has the effect of resisting <Holy Magic> or something.' I nodded as I got an idea of what happened.

'I need to use <Appraisal> on that instigator in the Border City. That means <Charm Magic> probably won't work on them too. Even if people don't know it, the Goddess also governs that skill, seeing her real title is the Goddess of Lust.'

As much as I wanted to use <Oracle> to ask the Goddess directly, I decided not to and found out about this mystery myself. It was fun.

Of course, if I was in a bind, I would ask her. She also knew about me so well that she wouldn't even tell me about it, just like when I asked her about what lay beyond the edge and told me to find out about it myself.

That made sense now.

I looked at Misa and eased my expression.

"So, what's the important information you gained from both of them?"

"Ignoring their nonsensical praise about their God and Hell, we managed to fish two pieces of information from them. About what they did in the Steelwill mansion and the Hell's Cult goal." Misa raised two fingers at me and looked serious.

"First of all, they summoned a Devil from Hell in their mansion, using the Madams as… sacrifices. The Devil was summoned, and Jonathan Steelwill managed to become a Devilkin. The whereabouts of that Devil right now are unknown. Even he didn't know about it."

I see, so that was indeed a summoning ritual. And the Devil was gone, huh?

"Continue."

"Next is Hell's Cult goal. Your Holiness, I believe you're aware of the four edges of the world and what keeps monsters from approaching the mainland, right?"

"I am aware. The north is protected by the World Tree and elves, while the South is filled with fog. The West and East are protected by the Castitas and Luxiria Churches' Popes."

"Indeed." Misa nodded firmly, "Their goal lay beyond them. Jonathan Steelwill exposed… No, it was more like he prayed…"

She paused for a while and bit her lower lips.

However, I could guess something.

"Their goal is…" She took a deep breath, trying to calm herself. The information seemed to be too much even for an Archbishop. "… The Hell's Cult goal is to revive their God, summoning IT from beyond the horizon."

The presence I felt back in the World-End Waterfall was their so-called God.

'Fuck… Now I really need to destroy them and visit all borders soon. Man… this is supposed to be my bonus stage, but why does this world have a final boss?'
