Manga World: Bringing Steam Technology to the World of Sanctuary

The chamber where Ravenna was located was about 30x40, the interesting thing that Christel has noticed throughout the way is the limestone and clay areas. In this chamber, Ravenna has made a construction with the help of her ice magic and clay walls, floors and ceilings of different sizes. Limestone and clay are the raw materials with other materials to cook cement.

'Miss Coldcrow, I love you. You've given me the masonry workshop without even finishing the carpentry workshop.' Christel's eyes lit up as she looked around as she entered the final chamber of the Caverns. Christel knows that there is a second underground floor where the Treasure that Ravenna has obtained over the years of murders is. But first this Ice Crow must be captured. But she never expected that the greatest treasure would be the cave itself. The foundation of any civilization is its construction method, leave the construction with heavy stones properly cut and perfectly aligned, before that you have to know how to manipulate the cement and have your home and then you can dedicate yourself to creating your pyramids and other architectural wonders.

After a back and forth with harsh words and sentimental promises, the place turned into what would be a very heavy party with walls of destroyed bones, frozen areas next to intense fires, craters and plant vines.

Ravenna was accompanied by five of her best companions and Elite Rogues wielding spear weapons. With the small army of Fallen revived by Malachar and summoning walls of bone to separate them each hero managed to subdue one with Korgar tanking Coldcrow.

Christel, with the help of Sir Valen's aura of divine light, has already managed to subdue each of the dark lancers and wrap them in warm but tight vines. Which brought everyone to the point where they were facing each other eight against one.

Ravenna grits her teeth. Her bow had long since been lost somewhere and now she only fights with a dagger in her left hand. She is already exhausted and although it is not noticeable on her pale skin, beads of sweat fall from her forehead.

Unlike other Rogues like Moreina, who were corrupted by brainwashing methods, Ravenna herself fell into greed, which is why she stole the Karlei's Point dagger in the first place, and why she killed greedy rich people who she could snatch their treasures and riches from. In this chamber alone in the house she created herself out of ice and clay, there are many gold coins, if not a hundred thousand, then at least eighty thousand coins stored.

"...Damn brat, I don't know why you're capturing these fallen rogues, but trust me, there's no way you're getting them out of Andariel's hands."

"That's something I'll worry about, Ravenna avoid getting hit and let yourself be captured"

"Hehehehe, you want a kiss from me so much, come closer and let me capture those lips instead... Ugh, cough, cough, COUGH, blueh..." Ravenna, who was arguing just to gain recovery time, suddenly coughed up black blood and a corrupt energy gushed out from within her like hot spring water.

"What's going on?" Korgar felt the cavern begin to shake.

"No, the controller in the shadows is using a way to destroy Coldcrow's soul" Malachar felt the spiritual changes in Ravenna

"The dark mana around Coldcrow has risen at least threefold" Lyara sensed how the natural mana around her was fading away and a sinister mana was taking its place.

"Darkness surrounds this place..." Sir Valen felt his aura of divine light gradually weakening.

"...The ground, something is emerging from the dream..." Fenrir felt the earth element groan and cracks appeared on the ground beneath Ravenna from which emanated a fiery red light.

"I'll go knock her out..." Shira disappeared from her position to appear behind Ravenna in the air giving a horizontal kick towards the Corrupted Rogue's neck. But the dark energy exploded, throwing her away.

"Ugh, it's a strong dark energy..." Shira spun in the air and landed on her feet on the ground, but took a few steps back.

"Leave it to me, Hiaa!" Zara raised a javelin and threw it with force - a Lightning Fury - hitting the ground where the now Ravenna was enveloped in a dark cloud. But when the Lightning Javelin crashed onto the ground, but the lightning failed to penetrate the red crack marks.

"...It's going to explode, we better get out now!" Malachar knew that he couldn't stop this spiritual outburst, this was definitely not something a mortal could do. As he turned around to urge everyone, he noticed a golden bolt of lightning rushing towards Ravenna.

"Girl, what do you think you're doing?"

"Christel?"

"Hey, stop"

"..."

Shira noticed Christel but to reach her she had to go around Ravenna and she wouldn't have time.

Christel knew that if she didn't do something, she would lose this excellent assassin. 'I saw you...' The moment Ravenna started to cough, she noticed a shadow looming over her, it was as if it appeared out of nowhere, but in her eyes she saw perfectly how it came from a dimension that was not the three known ones. A vector that was not X, Y or Z.

Christel noticed the changes at a spatial level, the strange vector entered from the ground so it seemed to crack, the red light that emanated was perhaps from space where it came from and not from what is underground. The shape of the shadow intrigued Christel, as it resembled a Zerg Hydralisk, but with a female upper part and with four blades instead of two. As it was not the same entity and only a kind of spiritual clone. Christel did not feel much pressure. He may be afraid of Ravenna's physical strength and magic power, but not at this spiritual level since he himself is very strong in this sense.

He could save her, he would only have one chance, so he took the risk by covering himself with his power and hitting the dark cloud. Everyone could see how Christel quickly reached Ravenna in the air and took her face with her hands.

"-Aura: Prayer-, -Aura: Purification-, -Aura: Holy Fire-, -Curse: Weaken-, -Summoning: Solar Vine-, -Shadow Discipline: -Psychic Hammer-...I will capture you 'Andariel'..."

A series of spells learned from the heroes, with the highest level of the single vine taught by Fenrir, fell upon Ravenna, or rather upon the shadow that fell upon her. After using the sealing method by internal energy many times, this time Christel knows well where to strengthen it. The dimensional vector where the shadow came from may be the same as where Andariel has captured the hearts of the Corrupted Rogues.

According to what we know about Andariel from the game Diablo II and in the years since changed, legend said that she is the daughter of Lilith. This was cosmically changed in the Book of Caine, where the author states that Andariel was actually born from one of the seven heads of Tathamet, thus preceding all other demons along with the other Great Evils.

But Christel saw something interesting in this spiritual clone after attacking for the sixth time with the Psychic Hammer while injecting her energy through Ravenna's mouth with her lips. After delivering the sixth blow, Christel entered a dark space, on the ground there is water about 18 centimeters deep. The floor seems to be solid since, although she cannot see it, her feet are firmly in the water.

"...Little girl, why are you stealing my toys?" A soft voice that seemed to come from the breezes of the wind rang out throughout the darkness surrounding Christel.

"Andariel?"

"...Little girl, how should I punish you..." The voice grew closer and closer, and ripples appeared on the still water.

"Andariel, I want to ask you something... Is Lani okay?"

"...Little girl, do you think I can't kill you now? But now I want to see you suffer, first I will kill this useless Ravenna Frostine, then I will burn your beloved Homeless Girls' Camp in demonfire." As the soft voice already in the nearby surroundings was heard, saying Coldcrow's name, the space around seemed to tremble.

It seems that the question irritated this shadow a lot, Christel got an answer in his silence from which two paths could be derived. But no matter which path it gave Christel a chance to face Andariel.

"Child, if you surrender to me and swear to be mine, I will let your beloved sisters live and spare Ravenna." The voice could already be heard near Christel's ears. Despite the darkness in this space, Christel could only see the surroundings within a 5-meter radius. No one could simply speak into her ear without her noticing.

"What do you mean?" Christel actively used the Spiritual Eye to see where the shadow was hiding. She also followed the conversation to gain time, as she thought, the enemy also wanted to gain time for his purposes.

"Come to me, let me take you, I will help you awaken your true strength and you can be the leader of this girl guild. You just have to come to me and let me enter you..." The whisper of the soft voice was already becoming more and more seductive, full of temptations.

"Uhm..."

"Baby, I can make you feel feelings you've never imagined, I can..."

'This... What does Andariel think I am? A female character from NTR? Are we in a Netorare manga here? Does she really think my intellectual capacity will drop to negative by threatening the people I love, then blackmailing me into doing unspeakable and humiliating things until I become corrupted?'

"Hehe~ If you think I'm a main character of an NTR manga, I'd be the Main Character of a NETORI story!"

"...Eh? Girl, I don't understand what you mean."

"Cough, what I mean is that you get ready, because I will definitely come looking for you and I will be the one who takes you! Andariel!"

"Do you want to see this child's soul die, little girl?" The voice changed its tone to an angrier one, but it was still soft. Christel wonders how such a sweet voice can come out of a female hydralisk.

"Go ahead and do it"

"Do you think I don't dare?"

"What I think is that you can't. You just taught me how to defend myself against you. Now you can't harm Ravenna even if her heart is in your hands." Although it felt like a long talk in the dark space, in the real world it only lasted a few seconds, six to be exact. Then Christel threw the seventh Psychic Hammer at the shadow that enveloped Ravenna and a furious scream echoed throughout the cavern.

"AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH !! ! . . . "

"Little girl, you will come for me, I promise..." Christel felt this voice full of anger and mockery, then, she felt like a burning fire entered her stomach and a burning sensation spread throughout her body, then nothing.

Christel lost consciousness and fell with Ravenna's body. Zara the Amazon caught them both in the air. Ravenna, aware of what happened, looked at the girl above her and her golden blonde hair. She was also in the dark space, but far away from the girl, some tree root tentacles caught her, and she heard everything, especially the part where she said -I will capture you- before entering the dark space.

Something strange with the persistence of this girl made her feel warm for the first time in years of being in a freezing temperature surrounded by ice. When she was caught by the Blonde Amazon Woman, although she could still fight, she just let herself be captured. The Druid used vines to tie her up and block her mouth, Ravenna just closed her eyes.

"What about Christel...?" Shira came running first followed by the other heroes.

"It seems she was cursed, Flames of..." Malachar stopped talking.

"What's wrong Malachar, did you see something?"

"..."

It seems that apart from Korgar, all the other heroes were able to recognize the curse on Christel. -Flames of Sin: Lust-

"Let's quickly return to little Christel's Research Center... We'll call Akara to explain what happened, at least the mission was successful, and we didn't lose any Rogues" Lyara simply said, thinking here is not comfortable, it is best to return and let the Rogues clean the place.

Christel at the moment of losing consciousness actually appeared over her bed, her world travel ability can save her life. But she did not wake up instantly, from the third hour with the thirty-third minute and thirty-three seconds until seven in the morning Christel was in a deep sleep, with nocturnal movements that she normally does not do and by instinct she hugged a warm body to her left. As time passed her consciousness was recovered, since the curse consumed all her magical and physical energy, which caused her to lose consciousness.

Normally with that curse placed by Andariel herself, no woman would endure it, if the burning of her body's energy did not kill her, she would become a slut worse than prostitutes, completely destroying her body and her life, since the -Flames of Sin- would burn her soul with every action she did in sin.

The only way to counteract that curse is to be with the person you love and have that person extinguish the flames within the cursed person, it's just that the curse will raise the physical ability and desire to a very high level that the loved one will not be able to sustain, that's why no one has survived any of the -Flame of Sin- level curses. But Andariel would never think that this girl had the ability to travel between worlds, and, as a loophole within the curse, there is no closure that says that you can only have one love.

The energy of the flame of sin within Christel was at its peak and being the first activation, her desire was very high. It's just that between Christel's legs, as usual, was a succubus who could extinguish them with great joy. Maria, still unconscious, felt the scent of spring. The smell that emanates from creatures in nature when the ice melts and flowers bloom.

Lala doesn't care when people move in the bed, she doesn't wake up, so Maria climbed up Christel's body and put her hands inside her pajama top. As Christel was hugging Mio on her right, Maria climbed up on her left side, unconsciously moving Lala away a little, who just turned around.

Maria woke up when she felt Christel's body was warm and she smelled a sweet aroma that she herself has tried many times. But lately Christel has been very busy, so the moments where she could be with her were minimal. Feeling Christel's natural desire, and her own burning desire, she hugged Christel from her right with her hands inside her clothes touching the blonde girl's breasts. Her tail already out moved up Christel's right leg and entered her shorts. Although it is pajamas, she does not usually wear underwear underneath and her B cup breasts do not have the need to wear a bra when sleeping, so Maria always has easy access to Christel's body from all sides.
