EP.254 Omen (6) 

Suddenly, a big question arose. 

“…Wait a minute.” 

The reason Aris targeted Si-hyun’s magic. 

It all began with a contract with a demon named Anne. 

But why…? 

Why did Anne order Aris to collect Master’s magic using her? 

Was it to corrupt the saint called Aris? Or because Aris had some special power? Or… 

Ariel furrowed her brow. 

A deep sense of foreboding welled up-directed more at the demon Anne than at Aris herself. 

She recalled something she’d once heard: 

The gods who preside over holy power sometimes give those who have fully atoned for their past sins another chance to wield divine power. 

A criminal who had massacred countless people might, just for helping punish an even greater evil god, later be allowed to join the holy order. 

There were cases of people who, like Aris, tried to seize power by imprisoning a goddess, or who used forbidden magic to plunge the south into chaos, yet were later chosen again by the gods. 

Ariel, who had committed many misdeeds alongside Aris and the other holy knights, might still be able to wield holy power because of this principle. 

If Ariel had remained as rebellious and brainwashed as Aris, she would have lost her holy power and met a lonely end. 

Ariel recalled a past memory. 

When the holy knights surrounded the goddess Elina with spears and swords, Ariel could only tremble helplessly as her comrades were beheaded in an instant. 

It was only then that she realized: humans could never stand against a goddess. 

She didn’t even need to try to understand it. 

Elina, crushing human lives like worthless bugs, was the very image of a demon goddess, and the overwhelming terror she inspired could be felt in the flesh. 

That’s why Ariel couldn’t understand why Aris still couldn’t accept reality. 

No ordinary person would make such choices. 

At least, not by Ariel’s standards. 

Even someone who didn’t value their own life would surely have faltered when faced with such a being… 

Moreover, Aris was already completely mentally crushed-at least when it came to Elina. 

Just hearing Elina’s voice would make her prostrate herself on the ground. 

Despite being so filled with fear of Elina, Aris refused to change her feelings toward Si-hyun, who stood above even the goddess. 

Having fallen under his suggestion, she was forced to call him Master and obey, treated as less than a beast, milked all day like a sow. 

Having completely fallen out of Si-hyun’s favor, she couldn’t even dream of sex with her Master, and had to make do with licking up semen sometimes poured into her dog bowl. 

And it wasn’t even fresh semen from Si-hyun’s cock. 

It was leftover semen and pussy juice, the dregs left after the female dogs had absorbed what they wanted, scraped up and given to Aris because it would be a waste to throw it away. 

From the female dogs’ perspective, it was annoying that their beloved Master wasted time squeezing out fresh semen for that sow. 

The semen that dripped out after sex was just the leftovers, mixed with pussy juice, not the real thing. 

Since being captured by Si-hyun, Aris had always been treated that way, her mind filled with fear of Elina, who could appear at any moment. 

In such a life, it would make sense for her to repent and hope to at least receive real semen. 

If Ariel herself were in that position, she would have made that choice long ago. 

Unless she’d never felt any pleasure from Si-hyun or had no desire for magic, that is. 

If Aris had simply promised to atone for the rest of her life and submitted at Si-hyun’s feet, she could have at least received real semen. 

Ariel couldn’t understand why Aris was still so stubborn. 

But now, Aris’s stubbornness and Anne’s hidden motives combined to raise a new suspicion. 

Among Si-hyun’s female dogs, Aris was the only one stripped of the right to wield holy power. 

So even now, in this situation, Aris showed no sign of repentance. 

Even the gods seemed to regard her as a villain. 

Anyone watching Aris, fallen so far yet still looking up, would find it chilling. 

But perhaps there was someone who liked Aris’s attitude. 

And if that person was Anne, the demon, then the magic leaking out around them couldn’t be ignored. 

If Anne had seen through Aris from the start and made her an irresistible offer as a saint, and planned to use her to the very end…? 

Ariel closed her eyes and opened them again. 

Strangely, it all seemed plausible. 

Especially, it seemed odd to just leave Aris alone. 

According to Elina, the contract between the two had a binding force even gods couldn’t easily break. 

If so, rather than leaving Aris here where she might say something important at any time, it would make more sense to try to rescue and deal with her. 

Of course, Ariel knew that other senior female dogs and her Master had similar suspicions about Anne. 

But the reason the mystery hadn’t been solved was that Aris hadn’t made any further moves. 

From the outside, it looked as if Aris’s will to resist had been broken, so it was hard to find any answers by continuing to doubt her. 

‘Let’s think, Ariel. Why does no one suspect this suspicious magic?’ 

It was strange. 

Her Master, Si-hyun, could endlessly supply strong, fresh magic to the female dogs. 

Elina was a goddess worshipped by powerful demons of the north. 

Both were more familiar with magic than anyone. 

There was no way they wouldn’t notice suspicious magic floating around. 

Especially since this magic was very similar to what Aris had harbored since her days as a saint. 

It was fainter than before, but its manipulative nature was even stronger, so anyone exposed to it should have felt their mood sour. 

If anyone ever really noticed it, it would be almost impossible to ignore. 

Then, she realized something. 

The reason Ariel could identify this faint energy as Aris’s magic was purely because of her past experience. 

‘Maybe the energy is so faint… the others just didn’t realize it was magic. But I recognized it right away because I’d experienced Aris’s magic enough.’ 

With that, the situation made more sense. 

‘I should consult with Elina-senpai.’ 

Thinking so, Ariel hurried down the hallway, trying not to forget any of her thoughts, and because things seemed serious. 

But then- 

“Ouk… ouwik… I-I’m sorry… agh… haaat…” 

She found Aris, on all fours, being mercilessly penetrated with dildos in both holes. 

‘Sigh. Can’t they give it a rest? Now I’ve forgotten what I was thinking…’ 

Ariel frowned as she approached them. 

Meanwhile- 

‘Damn it… seniors… it’s not even my magic… why do they keep blaming me…’ 

Aris was full of resentment.
