Reincarnated With SSS Deathless Skill in Female Dominated World!

Chapter 123 Darkness Of The First Hunter Union (3)

Chapter 123: Darkness Of The First Hunter Union (3)

"Why?" Hunter asked, aware that he stepped out of the boundaries.

At this point, there was no way Celestia would tell him about the reasons behind her ambition. He wasn't anyone close to her, and it wasn't like this woman couldn't draw him to her schemes. Nakisha hadn't warned him about Celestia for no reason, after all.

And Hunter wasn't stupid enough to not tell that someone who could kill The Lord Demon and scheme against the world's connection was someone he could associate with. If he recalled well, Celestia's innate skill was SS, but it was information she could casually pass to others, so there was a chance she had more skills.

Perhaps she could even make her SS skill turn into SSS with some ancient knowledge.

Hunter had a lot of thoughts running across his brain as he stared at the beautiful boss. Even if he no longer felt much affection toward her, she was still so beautiful that some of his initial feelings for her billowed from the bottom of his heart.

She smiled.

"How much do you know about your inheritance?" Celestia asked.

It was a test. If he replied with two words 'A lot', Celestia wouldn't share her reasons with him. If he just said 'Not much', she would just accept him to her guild and pass him quests to keep making him stronger. And if he were to genuinely share what he knew about himself, there was a high chance she would share her ambition with him.

'I was a piece that pushed her plans somewhat and somehow,' Hunter inwardly thought. The laws he wielded in his Death Origin were of the highest ever possible grade, and there was a chance he would be able to resurrect or reincarnate himself should Celestia aim for his life.

He would abandon Aimee and Seraphina if that were the case, however.

Feeling for those two outweighed his curiosity.

"A lot," he replied.

-

In the end, Hunter hadn't learned the reason for Celestia's ambitions.

He had officially joined her guild and was told to wait for the first quests that were adequate to his level. That really made him wonder how much the boss knew about him, but he didn't question anything aloud. He understood that Aimee and Seraphina were thinking the same.

"Didn't you want to speak with Miss Charlotte?" Hunter asked Seraphina as he added strength to the grip around her little hand, drawing her attention.

Seraphina faintly smiled, "There's a lot to talk with her… but I couldn't bring myself after hearing the boss' ambition."

"Yeah… true," Hunter nodded, "We can meet her tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

"Yes," Seraphina nodded, still bothered by the boss' tale. It was like learning about the existence that could threaten the world, and the existence in question was living close to her. No, that existence was her boss now. She could drag everyone and even the hunter union to her schemes!

That was quite terrifying now that she thought more about it. And that woman surely didn't just have connections in the union, right?

Aimee voiced that out, sighing, "We can't go back now. Only if we develop to match the boss and her strength will we be able to decide about the world's future." Aimee suddenly chortled, compelling her beloved and friend to look at her with big eyes, "I'm the laughingstock of my family, yet I got to know about someone who can possibly change the entire world. This feels surreal, but she's someone I want to become, in a way."

If Celestia's plans bore fruit, she would entirely change the world. Aimee wasn't really aiming that high as she wanted to make a royal hunter world, which would, at most, affect the nobles of the continent and some of its lands. Maybe the culture would spread far to other corners of the world, but that was it.

But Celestia wanted the whole world to be influenced.

"I am selfish just like her," Aimee smiled, "My dream remains the same."

"Does it mean you support her?" Seraphina asked, as she couldn't really understand Aimee's words well.

Her friend shook her head, "I support whatever decision Hunter takes. Her plans somewhat align with mine, though. Imagine this. The spirits lose the connection to the spirit world. This alone should make monsters more active. Some intelligent monsters strong enough to oppose demons' influence might reveal themselves, drowning the world in their own factions. This gives a lot of room for me to create the royal hunting world I dream of."

"I see," Seraphina nodded in understanding.

Even if Hunter didn't support the boss, her plans remained the same. She would just use him in another way and continue with her ambition, so what Hunter could do was become strong enough to go against her or decide what to do in the world she would create.

Aimee's words had given him more thought.

"Alastor's death has been confirmed, my liege," a demon in a white tuxedo bowed before the lord demon, Asmodeus, clad in black robes.

While the servant wore white clothes as though making himself chaste, he was nothing but chaste. No one could ever be called innocent while working under Asmodeus. The leader seemed to represent that well with his clothes and natural dimension, turning anything around him into debauchery.

Weaker demons would always get troubled in his presence.

It wasn't the case for a tuxedo demon, though.

Asmodeus rolled his eyes up and bore them into his castle's ceiling, "He left a troublesome fellow behind to deal with, didn't he? That Lucifer bastard."

The relationship between the thirteen demon lords was quite complicated, but Asmodeus found Lucifer on the same level and was quite fond of him. It didn't mean he would do all in his strength to bring him back or not scheme to let Lucifer sleep for a little longer.

It wasn't like Lucifer could return at any moment, though.

As he stared at the ceiling, Asmodeus was thinking of a woman he'd love to snatch. A forbidden fruit. He wasn't thinking of a relative but rather of an existence that should never ever exist in the universe. The last time he saw her, her demonic eye drove him crazy, and the other spirit eye made him wish to gouge it out and make her repent for even daring to look at him through it.

"Indeed, it's Celestia who killed him," the tuxedo demon confirmed his liege's words.

Asmodeus scoffed, "No one actively goes against us anyway. All enjoy this stalemate forced upon them by the World Order, be it demons, humans, or spirits. A few sacrifices aren't enough to snap and break that chilling period. Though…" Asmodeus pierced his servant with a meaningful glare.

The tuxedo man nodded, "Alastor's death seems to be a nail in the coffin. They want to make her identity clear."

"A forbidden fruit shall be known, then. I reckon it's only limited to this world?" Asmodeus asked.

"Yes," the tuxedo man bowed, "If everyone learned about her existence, this world would be flooded by all spirits and demon lineages, so it's best to keep it limited. The World Order has already been notified of it, so they will do their part in keeping this information confidential from the spirit side."

"Hmmm," Asmodeus mused aloud, "So it boils down to who will lay claim to Celestia first and her preparations against the entire world should it go against her."

The forbidden fruit was no one other than Celestia. She was Lucifer's daughter, whose seed had somehow made it through a sun spirit's royalty. It went without saying that demons and spirits couldn't have children, but Lucifer and that sun spirit had managed to break the rule and conceive a daughter of two bloodlines at odds.

What was amazing was that she kept those bloodlines at bay. Her eyes weren't of a demon or spirit, and her hair wasn't anything like a sun spirit female should have. It wasn't shining and sparkling in the sun. It was dark. Also, Lucifer didn't have dark but red hair.

Celestia had somehow made herself 'human', or rather, an epitome of darkness.

The tuxedo man nervously smiled, "There are a few problems… they fear Celestia has a key to Lucifer's curse. It's been confirmed she uses the wind element, the same element that Lucifer used to curse the entire world. It's not the same kind, though, but I believe she developed it to herself to have zero connection to him."

Having the key to Lucifer's curse, or at least some method to manipulate it, would be enough to get a lot of allies onto her side. Monsters that even demons couldn't control would probably ally themselves with Celestia, and even men, who were scorned and weak in this world, would probably grow much stronger under Celestia's influence.

She could have an army of men waiting for her command…

There were many problems that The World Order and other demons had brought up.

"Who gives a fuck?" Asmodeus sneered, "Announce her name!"

"My liege, if you were to announce that yourself, no one would believe you," the tuxedo man calmly said.

Asmodeus slammed the handrail of his throne, "Dude, fuck this shit! When and where is the next meeting?"

"In a month, I believe. Everyone wants to see what they can do before starting that plan… you could say they are preparing against whatever Celestia has stored for years."

"Losers! As if a mere month is enough to prepare for that shit! Fate will decide who survives and who does not! If they aren't ready in a month, I would drag my entire lineage to that hunter union to announce Celestia's origins! Tell them that!"

"As you wish," the man's tuxedo turned black, and he disappeared from the throne room.

A few seconds later, Asmodeus surrounded himself with demonesses and had them ride on him as he laughed at the impending events.
