BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1137 Perspectives 5
Chel and Bria chuckled as they enjoyed the sense of returning home while Misery felt slightly somber at the atmosphere he was feeling here.
Inside, the Devil Castle was a labyrinth of opulence and desire. Marble hallways, adorned with crimson velvet drapes, led to lavish chambers that promised unparalleled pleasures. Intricate stained-glass windows depicted scenes of sinful indulgence, while the air was filled with a delicate scent of incense and seduction.
Chel and Bria led the way through the castle's winding corridors, passing by sumptuous lounges where sultry music played, drawing couples and trios into sensuous embraces. Golden chandeliers hung from the ceilings, casting a warm and intimate glow over the rooms.
Misery looked these devils up and down and noticed that they were similar to the two with him in that they had royal bloodline, but it was much thinner. Not to mention that they stopped to greet Chel and Bria respectively as 'Royal Cousin'.
Aside from that, one of the most impressive features of the Devil Castle was its central hall, known as the Hall of Temptations.
This grand chamber was a masterpiece of sinister allure, featuring a massive dance floor surrounded by decorated balconies. From the balconies, succubi and incubi watched as they enticed everyone below with their alluring bodies that were almost on full display, galvanizing mortals and immortals alike to join them in the dance of temptation.
Misery noticed more than a few Rank 4 and above men and women from the Main Plane who behaved like dogs, trying their hardest to win the favor of the succubi or incubi of their choice to come down so that they could take part of the sexual orgy on the ground.
Wild.
Throughout the castle, the walls were adorned with exquisite paintings and sculptures, depicting devils entwined in intimate and erotic poses. Each piece seemed to tell a story of desire, passion, and indulgence.
At the highest tower of the Devil Castle lay the private quarters of the Devil King and Queen. Accessible only to those with the highest authority, these chambers were said to hold the most powerful enchantments and secrets of the Devil Realm as well as the now defunct passage to the Divine World.
As they wandered through the castle, Chel excitedly explained some of its history and significance to Misery. It was not only a place of pleasure and indulgence but also a center of political power. Within its walls, devilish factions gathered to negotiate alliances, engaged in political intrigues, and planned strategic moves to strengthen their influence over the Main Plane, especially with the upcoming millennia Great War.
Misery chuckled but refrained from informing Chel that such a thing was unlikely to ever repeat itself. If anything, the Main Plan would be the invader. Still, he thought it best if she and the rest of the devils found out on their own.
Soon, Misery was brought to the chambers of Chel and Bria, which made him raise an eyebrow.
"You two, I thought you were bringing me here to meet your father?" Misery asked with a look of confusion.
Chel chuckled evilly. "Maybe, maybe not…"
Bria closed the door and locked it ominously. "It won't matter if we bring you to him right now… or after you've been drained."
Seeing the obvious malicious intent his two women had for him, Misery only drank from his bottle and muttered to himself.
"I'm probably going to die. I wonder, will I go to heaven or hell?"
The two Royal Devils pounced on their prey at the same time and a serious, world shaking battle ensued in the room thereafter.
...…..
Meanwhile, Deployed Soldier was seated within his office in the Rank 7 Barracks. He was currently glancing at a map that showed the details of the entire Main Plane in a holographic like form powered by magitech.
A knock on the door sounded and he shouted that the person could come in. He frowned slightly when he wondered who could come to see him at this time since most of the troops were deployed and still handling the conquest.
When the door was pushed open, a mildly handsome young man with a very light tan that was almost yellow in color entered. Deployed looked him up and down then observed that he was tall with his height surpassing 6 feet, whereas his natural born blonde hair was revealed as well as his light green eyes.
"Ah, you must be our newest core members, AkaWhite Ninja, right?" Deployed Soldier smiled as he recognized the fellow from his guild badge and saw his name above his head.
Gage nodded. "That's me, though I prefer just Ninja from now on."
Deployed nodded amiably. "What brings you here, brother Ninja?"
"Well, after I passed and joined, I noticed the guild was quite err… empty. Not only that, but the entire chat was lively talking about war and stuff, so I asked some people about it and was told to come and see you." Ninja explained with an awkward smile.
Deployed touched his nose as any new members would naturally be confused by this, especially since Ninja was entirely new to the game.
"Right, before that, have you gone to Class Up?" Deployed asked quickly.
"Yeah, somebody explained that process, so I've already done it. Do you want me to share my class details?" Ninja replied thoughtfully.
Deployed nodded. "Please do."

Whew, Deployed Soldier was slightly shocked by this. Ninja's class was strange as it was one of the first that did not mention Laws and Rules among the core members. Heck, it was almost like… the way Draco, Eva and Shuangtian's classes were.
Deployed Soldier's pupils suddenly constricted at the thought and he raised his head to glance at the smiling Ninja with a chill. He scanned the man up and down again before asking seriously.
"Ninja… do you have any… special abilities?"
Ninja was surprised by the question, then he grinned.
......….
Draco was currently in the Main Plane, browsing through the Rank 7 Shop which was like a super mega mall in reality. He specifically chose the shops that sold skills and looked for those in the category of Draconic, Demonic, Devilish, Angelic, which were the only ones he was allowed to learn.
Well, aside from Eternal, but Draco was not yet stupid enough to believe he would actually find such stuff down here. Even plot convenience had its limits.
From them, he picked 3 options each from the Draconic, Demonic, Devilish, Angelic selection before him and checked them. They were;

Draco was satisfied with these skills. Each of them had a purpose and had been chosen carefully by him to fulfill different purposes when imbued by Laws once he returned to the Divine World.
Some were even geared for the Divine Trial!
Of course, don't look at the pathetic numbers on those skills, these were the base numbers of the skillbooks. When Draco learned them, the effects would be changed and adjusted based on his Rank and Class, so you could be sure that all those numbers would become crazy.
