My Wives are Beautiful Demons

Chapter 34: Whoever moves will die



A memory flashed before her eyes...

"Did you become the strongest? Or were you born the strongest?" A woman with blue eyes and white hair questioned her...

"Who knows... I was born rejected by the world, so I rejected humanity."

"Your strength shows how lonely you are. Is this the punishment imposed on the strongest to continue wandering in search of an endless display of power?" She said, holding a staff as the demon realm began to yield and crumble.

"How extravagant," Sapphire smiled as her worn lance fell, "You\'re interesting, I see... you feel lonely for being stronger, don\'t you? Come, I\'ll teach you."

\'You were interesting,\' Sapphire thought, her madness focusing on a specific point.

Her loneliness.

"Many have challenged you, body and soul. It\'s not because they wanted to defeat you, they wanted recognition, didn\'t they?" The woman, smiling, parried Sapphire\'s lance fearlessly and without hesitation.

"People challenge you to understand who they are, and you personally annihilate them," She said while surfing the clouds as the sky opened up...

"What a joke," Sapphire said, kicking her and throwing her far away...

"Are you satisfied with just that? Is that why you fight?" The staff flew toward Sapphire, who blocked it with her hands, reappearing in front of the woman...

"I don\'t follow orders, I eat when I want, kill if they\'re annoying, and play when it\'s fun," Sapphire said, throwing her back and taking the staff. "I live the way I want." Sapphire concluded, launching the staff with such force that when blocked, the woman\'s hands broke...

"One day you\'ll tire of this," The woman said, smiling as she saw her end approaching, yet she had no regrets, "Perhaps." Sapphire said before taking her life, splitting the sky in half and the woman\'s body, turning into shimmering dust...

"I hope to meet you again, Honorable Woman," Sapphire thought, returning to reality where she stood before the men of faith...

"My mistress, are you alright?" Viola asked, seeing that Sapphire was static for a few seconds, enough to worry, she was in front of the enemies!

"Oh... I had a flashback," Sapphire said, causing Viola\'s face to almost shatter; her expression was hilarious!

\'C-crazy! Insane! Delusional! Sick! Deceptive!\' She shouted, cursing her mistress in every possible way to vent her anger! Her life was in trouble here too!

\'I guess she was right... these worms tire me out.\' Sapphire thought as she analyzed the two men in front of her... \'What a waste of time.\'

She changed her expression as she put her hand on her chin, "What should I do with you?" She questioned aloud, as if she were...

\'Damn it! Is she treating our lives as a game??\' Gordon thought.

\'My life is in the hands of a gorgeous redhead!\' Lariet thought... well, he was an idiot.

\'I should retire...\' Adrian thought, seeing how nothing mattered to this woman in front of him...

Time seemed to stop... Only for Sapphire. For them, it was an endless tension, not knowing when it would end, and this woman wasn\'t helping! She made faces as if she was trying to make them laugh, but if they laughed... they would die!

\'She probably isn\'t even aware of this...\' Viola murmured, it was almost amusing to see the sweat of the humans drip down with each passing second of silence...

"Ah! For heaven\'s sake, just finish this already!" Gordon could no longer bear it, breaking the silence and finally shouting, seeing that this was going nowhere; if she was going to kill them, then let her do it already!

"Uááá" Sapphire yawned, looking at the man. She had previously analyzed Lariet, now, seeing Gordon, she couldn\'t help but sigh again. She liked talented people, but why was it always... with just one look, she could tell that most men had negative potential, how bad could it get? He smelled like trash! To her, this man wasn\'t even qualified to breathe the same air as her.

"Puppy, be quiet, okay? I only speak to your owner." She said casually.

"Y-you-" Before he could continue, a thread of desperation ran across his neck; he felt the danger, but...

Boom!

"You\'re worse than usual." Adrian said, stopping the woman\'s attack with his hands... Losing one of his arms from the impact.

"Tsk, I hate dealing with men of god," Sapphire murmured, seeing that the sacred energy had protected him. \'Useless humans depending on artifacts...\' She cursed.

Gordon was completely at a loss for words; he couldn\'t even utter a grunt, he was just... pissing himself in fear.

"You\'re stronger," Sapphire commented. "I never stopped training," Adrian said gently with a smile. Receiving such praise from her was truly something to think about.

A moment of silence passed between Adrian and Sapphire.

Soon, Adrian sighed again. He didn\'t know how many times he had sighed that day, "I\'m sorry for what my subordinate did, he will be punished. Please, can you leave as if nothing happened?"

Sapphire\'s smile grew. "The pact was broken due to your incompetence. Honestly, I couldn\'t care less about the Sitri and Baal bitches, but here we are. Why, puppy?" She questioned Gordon...

"Y-Y-Your daughter was there..." He said, trembling in fear, "It seems someone is very well-informed. So, let\'s not rush... tell me honestly, how many times have I personally come here to punish you?" She questioned...

It wasn\'t the first time, the second, or the third... She had come here so many times that she knew the way, even knew how to break the obelisk to make it fall in the shape of a throne...

"Damn..." Lariet murmured...

"You didn\'t leave me a choice then..." Adrian spoke as his eyes began to shine golden. Slowly, a golden aura began to cover his body.

"I\'m sorry, not today," Sapphire said as her aura spread over the entire area, the whole Vatican felt the heat emanating from the woman\'s brute strength.

Sapphire had an absolutely arrogant and egocentric vision. She always believed she could reach the ultimate incarnation of strength and power.

The concept of \'being the strongest\' for Sapphire was clear and straightforward: She considered herself invincible, unmatched, and anyone who dared to challenge her or place themselves as an equal was despicable in her eyes.

Sapphire believed that the world follows a natural hierarchy where the strong rule and the weak serve as nothing more than mere obstacles to be overcome or destroyed. She valued strength above all else and showed no interest in morality, justice, or compassion. To her, the true essence of strength is the ability to subjugate and eliminate any opponent without hesitation.

And if she can do it with a single blow... Then she will, with all she\'s got...

They couldn\'t move, at least not try... After all, the devastating demonic aura made them freeze, but she released them slightly...

"No one moves... those who move will die." She said with a smile, sadistically no longer just playing with the lives of these three, but everyone in the vicinity...

Sapphire\'s smile widened even more, a wild gleam danced in her eyes. The air around her seemed to vibrate with the pure energy emanating from her body. With a slow, almost lazy movement, she raised a hand to the sky, as if touching the very essence of the universe. The light intensified, swirling into fiery whirlwinds.

"Do you really think you can mess with my beautiful daughter, huh?" her voice sounded calm, almost seductive, but laden with devastating malice.

Viola, standing beside her, felt a wave of despair engulf her body. Something monstrous was about to happen. The clouds above began to swirl, an inexplicable concentration of energy formed a vortex in the dark sky, opening up to reveal an intense, reddish light.

\'M-M-Mistress! Have you gone mad?!!!\' Viola screamed internally, watching as the woman smiled with her hair glowing... not because of the moon, but... what was obscuring the view above her... a red glow...

"Your disgrace will be swift, but it will last forever in your memory... for a few seconds," Sapphire whispered with a sharp smile.

She lowered her arm slowly, as if giving permission for the cosmos to descend. The red glow in the sky intensified, and the ground trembled under the feet of the men of faith, who somehow knew that nothing else mattered.

A meteor of significant size, with pure violent flames, cut through the sky above them.

Gordon, Lariet, and Adrian looked up, frozen. The meteor came as a harbinger of doom, its enormous mass burning everything in its path, illuminating the Vatican as if hell itself had been summoned to destroy the sacred place.

"You should have run when I yawned," she murmured with a cold and merciless smile.

The impact was imminent.

The wind began to whip through the area, dragging everything around as the vortex above roared.

The pressure from the meteor intensified, creating shockwaves across the ground.

Sapphire\'s eyes glowed intensely as the meteor approached, as if all the chaos was in perfect sync with her own essence.

Adrian tried to move, desperate, but his legs would not obey. He was trapped, frozen by the sheer terror of the situation, feeling like an insect under the gaze of an unyielding goddess.

When the meteor was mere milliseconds from its destination, Sapphire let out one final low, cruel laugh, her hair blazing in the light of the impending cataclysm, and she disappeared, holding Viola like a sack of potatoes.

Then, the impact.

The ground shook violently as the meteor struck the earth, releasing an explosion of pure destructive force that swept everything in its path. Sacred buildings disintegrated, chunks of the ground lifted as if the very soil was fleeing from the overwhelming power descending upon them.

A 200-meter-wide crater formed at the heart of the Vatican.

She appeared on the other side of the city, atop a clock tower high enough to view the scale of the chaos. There was nothing left but rubble and more rubble. She watched with satisfaction, as if observing a moving piece of art. The absolute destruction she had wrought pleased her greatly.

"How delightful," she murmured softly, gazing at the void left by the impact, where once there had been men of faith, now only rubble and ashes remained.
