Bakuha swung his arm forcefully, flinging Corinne away. Corinne used her sea monster chainsaw to stab into the wall of a building, hanging herself there.
Then, Corinne began to spin on the long handle of the sea monster chainsaw. After a few rotations, she pulled it out and slashed toward Bakuha.
Roar—!! Howl—!!
In an instant, a deep blue sea monster resembling a sea serpent and a fierce Iron-Eating Beast, far larger than Bakuha, appeared before him.
Long gashes continuously appeared on Bakuha's body, looking as if he had been clawed by bear paws or bitten by some unknown creature.
"Why are there a sea monster and a bear?" With this question in mind, blood sprayed from the wounds on Bakuha's body, and he fell to the ground.
The Iron-Eating Beast and the sea monster vanished, leaving only Corinne swinging her sea monster chainsaw downward.
"Whoa! I didn't expect this! Even though contestant Corinne Wix looks delicate and pitiful, her strength is incredibly formidable! She actually defeated Bakuha, the son of a Dragon King, so easily!" Nado spoke into the microphone, his emotions exceptionally excited.
"As expected, even if she's still a young girl who hasn't fully grown, the strength of a Specter cannot be underestimated." Tannin said as he looked at the fallen Bakuha. He hadn't expected that even a young girl among the Specters could so easily defeat his son.
Rosweisse and Rohan were moving together when Phantasos appeared before them, smiling as she spoke:
"The Valkyrie of the Great Norse God Odin, and the second rank of the Devil's Rating Game—truly excellent collectibles."
Seeing Phantasos appear, they immediately grew alert and said:
"She is?!"
"I remember she's one of the four Dream Gods!?"
Create Beautiful Dreams—!!
Phantasos extended her right hand, emitting a purple light. When the two women were struck by the light, their eyes suddenly closed, and they fell to the ground, fast asleep.
Then, two purple orbs of light flew out from their bodies into Phantasos's hand. These were the manifestations of their dreams, a technique the Dream Gods often used for collecting.
Phantasos examined the dreams in her hands. Rosweisse's dream was an ideal fantasy of catching a rich husband, while Rohan's was a harem dream surrounded by men.
"Hehehe~~!!" While Phantasos watched, the two sleeping women wore infatuated smiles. Phantasos threw their dreams back with a look of slight disgust.
She didn't need to worry about them for now; she would just let them sleep.
In a luxurious hotel building, Asia and Ravel walked hand-in-hand. There wasn't a single light in the building, and horror music similar to 'Friday the 13th' played in the completely dark atmosphere.
Rumble—!!
Even though they were inside an Alternate Dimension, for some reason, a bolt of lightning suddenly struck outside the building. Likely due to psychological factors, the two girls trembled and hugged each other tightly in fear.
"O lost wanderers, have you ever heard the rules of this place?" A beautiful yet spine-chilling female voice echoed in the hotel. The fear they felt made Asia and Ravel's faces gradually turn pale, and they couldn't stop trembling.
"Rule number 1: Trespassing into private territory is prohibited. Violators... will be punished." The voice echoed around them, creating a terrifying and eerie atmosphere.
As the voice finished, the ghost-like figure of Lina, wearing her noblewoman-style underworld armor, emerged from the hotel window glass. The eerie atmosphere and psychological fear caused the two girls to scream instantly:
"Aaaaaah—!!!"
The two girls, overwhelmed by their prior fear and the terrifying atmosphere, fainted directly.
"Rule number 2: Good children get rewards." Lina placed Asia and Ravel's heads on her lap. In the broadcasting room, Fafnir said with some envy:
"I'm a bit envious of Asia-chan and the others. I want Lina-neesan's reward too."
"Me too..." Azazel and Nado shared the same sentiment, sucking on their fingers.
"If only Grayfia had a personality like this Ms. Lina." In the VIP seats, Sirzechs watched the elegantly behaving Lina and compared her to his [Queen]. He somewhat wished his Grayfia could also have a smiling face and a gentle personality like Lina's.
"Ugh... Specter...!!" Asia and Ravel woke up in a daze. When they saw the underworld armor on Lina, they quickly stood up and distanced themselves from her.
"Ara ara, don't be so nervous, you two guests." Lina looked at the two nervous cuties and chuckled while covering her mouth.
"Are you... that Specter?" Asia asked Lina nervously.
Lina stood up and performed a maid's salute, saying: "I am the Head Maid of Master Hades, the Specter of the Celestial Authority Star, Bloody Mary Alexandrina Sebastian. You may just call me Lina."
"The Underworld King's Head Maid?" Ravel looked at Lina, who exuded an elegant aura, and spoke in confusion.
"She has even more poise than Lady Grayfia, and she seems gentler too." Asia, on the other hand, was deeply attracted by the aura Lina exuded, longing to become a woman like Lina in the future.
Lina looked at Asia and said with a smile: "Are you Miss Asia Argento? I've heard about you from Judge Lune of the First Prison. You were actually willing to give up your right to enter Paradise for your lover, falling into Cocytus after death. What a truly good girl."
"No... Sister Lina, you flatter me..." Asia blushed, fidgeting shyly.
When Fafnir heard this in the broadcasting room, his face was filled with horror. He turned to Azazel and roared: "Azazel!! What is going on?! Why would the gentle Asia-chan fall into that cold icy hell!!"
Azazel endured Fafnir's roaring and said: "It's like this. When we reached the First Prison of the Underworld, Issei accepted the Underworld's judgment and was cast into the hell known as the Valley of the Black Wind. Asia used her right to enter Elysium after death to exchange for Issei-kun's release from hell. Having lost her right to enter Paradise, she can only fall into Cocytus after she dies."
"What!! For my sake, Asia can only enter that cold hell after death!!" Issei Hyoudou also heard Azazel's words and fell to his knees in a daze, muttering to himself.
"No wonder we could escape from the Valley of the Black Wind. She exchanged her right to enter Paradise for it." Ddraig also realized the truth at this moment.
"I'm sorry, Head Maid Lina. Normally, I would invite you for tea, but I must win this match for Lord Issei Hyoudou." Phoenix wings unfolded behind Ravel, and with a wave of her hand, the fire of the undying bird attacked Lina.
"Miss Ravel, Rule number 3: Loud shouting in the lobby is prohibited." Lina floated up like a ghost, her hands making the classic ghostly gestures.
Furthermore, lightning crackled between each of the fingertips on her gloves.
Her fingers moved like a conductor's baton, and countless bolts of lightning fell, instantly extinguishing Ravel's Phoenix flames. Ravel was also struck by the lightning; her face turned charred, her hair became an afro, and she collapsed with swirly eyes.
