A Bet with Slutty Evil Being!

"Regarding the decision to let Danna pass away, I did so because I was aware that she was corrupted by sin and that she was destined for her own downfall if she continued living the way she did. It would have been more compassionate to have let her die where she was instead of executing her here."

"I see, very well. I am going to turn now..... Michael." Linias fly toward the air and headed upward.

"Portals are the worst... setting one up is a pain in the neck." According to the grumblings of an old Asmodea, setting up portals can be an extremely frustrating process. "Oh well, it looks like I'll finally be able to go back to my house with Alex and his group after this."

She has just taken a call from Lauryn, who informed her that they are going to be travelling along the route she specifies with a Fallen Angel named Aureal. She had also discovered that this angel possessed the ability to control both light and darkness in the world.

"A Fallen Angel... It takes a lot to bring down an angel from their heavenly position. And certainly an unusual one. No human, angel, or demon that I've ever heard of or read about has any kind of control over the balance of light and evil. She will prove to be an extremely useful ally."

"Let's see... The only thing that is left to do is recite the incantation. Oh, I can't wait to take a deep breath of the fresh air in my own home!"

A ring of stones bearing inhuman glyphs had been placed in the open area of a park not far away.

In order to open a portal to another planet, certain rituals required a circle of stones, and through an incantation, the practitioner would select a particular combination of four stones that would transport them to the desired location.

The combinations might transport you to any two of the seven Circles of Sin, the human world, Heaven, the intermediate realm, hell, or certain realms associated with ancient gods.

Because portals could only open up in specific locations, each one was closely guarded by guards.

Individuals who entered a portal without making prior arrangements were typically killed or captured upon entering the portal.

The chant of Asmodea for opening the portal was:

"The gateway that connects different realms and planets.

I implore you to make room for me in your life.

In the direction of the seven sin of circles

In the direction of the brilliant Land of Lust"

With each line, a stone within the circle started to glow, and eventually, what seemed like four stones at random began to shine together.

The runes on each stone began to emit a light that was variously blue, white, green, and purple.

Every one of the lights came together and started radiating outward from the middle of the circle.

A liquid with the consistency of water that rippled incessantly began to develop at the circle's centre and quickly grew into a sphere that perfectly encircled the runes.

If a person were to enter the sphere at any point, they would exit on the side of the sphere that corresponded to the location of their final destination.

Asmodea gave the sphere a breath, and then "It feels like an eternity since the last time I breathed in the scent of my own house. In contrast to the pollution that is present on this land. Oh my god, it smells so fresh and wonderful..."

Then, something that sounded more like a shout reached her ears "Asmodea! Here we are!"

"Oh my goodness, they weren't joking, there actually is a Fallen Angel in that spot. I can't remember the last time I saw one of those."

Over the treeline of the park, two pairs of wings could be seen flapping: one set of wings resembled a bat and was white, and the other set of wings was black and fluffy.

It is almost as if a picture were being drawn to symbolise an impossibility.

"Oh? At long last, you've arrived, right? I have made preparations for the portal."

Nyssa and Aureal had a smooth landing, Lauryn fell with grace, while Alex landed like a crippled donkey.

"Portal magic like this is something I've never seen before..." Lauryn was bewildered.

"Before I met Alex, I had already compiled the runes into a single location, so I was completely prepared. Be prepared for the fact that going through this for the first time could make you feel quite uncomfortable. Kind of like jet lag after a plane journey."

"Uh yeah... I have a feeling that my first journey through an inter-dimensional portal won't be one that I'll enjoy very much." Sighed Lauryn.

"I'm no stranger to portals; in fact, I had to go through one to get here in order to meet the woman I'm going to marry. Where do you stand, Aureal?"

"I participated in the most recent conflict that raged between angels and demons. So it stands to reason. On the other hand, I've never been fond of the sensation... If we were to compare this experience to something that happens to humans, we could compare it to having your face first sucked into a vacuum cleaner while simultaneously having every part of your body stretched in a different way. Master, if you will just grab hold of my hand, you will get through this unharmed."

"...Then keep one hand on me while you keep the other on your husband, and we should be fine."

"Okay, I'll go first so that I can check with the security personnel on the other side to see whether we are permitted to go through the entrance. Your own bodyguard ought to be waiting for you on the opposite side, my lord."

"Personal guard? Eh? Oi! I have a personal guard?"

"Don't be concerned; they are interesting people, and I think you'll get along well with them."

Asmodea was the first person to pass through the watery sphere, and after she did, an afterimage of herself emerged on the sphere before it began to gradually disappear.

"Then I'll go after that, and just for excitement, I'll go without holding hands," she said. After stepping inside the circle, the next person to do so was Lauryn.

Alex was quite amazed by her fortitude, despite the fact that she was a human (or a witch), as she showed no fear. Another afterimage of Lauryn briefly materialised before vanishing completely.
