Endless Plunder in High School DxD

Chapter 326: The Fallen Soul

Griselda-Sama.

Griselda-Sama.

In her pristine white nuns robe, Griselda, having just finished her prayers, was on her way back to her own room. Along the way, she exchanged friendly and reverent greetings with the other nuns and clergy.

Griselda was known for her exceptional strength, unwavering belief, and her esteemed position as the Brave Saint Queen, a Royal User of the great Archangel Gabriel-Sama in this church. Everyone held her in high regard and had deep affection and respect for her.

As always, Griselda carried herself with humility, offering warm, saintly smiles in response to everyones greetings.

Clergy Gerome.

Griselda called out to a young clergyman approaching her.

Nun Griselda, how may I assist you?

Gerome, a young clergyman and a formidable exorcist who was also one of the churchs administrators bowed respectfully to Griselda.

Griselda hesitated for a moment, her lips parted, showing a hint of inner turmoil before regaining her composure.

I have no specific request, Clergy Gerome. I only heard that youre going on a mission. Please take care of yourself, and may the Lord bless you.

Thank you for your blessings, Nun Griselda.

Clergy Gerome, feeling honored, displayed a hint of joy on his face.

With a slight smile, Griselda nodded and then continued on her way to her room.

Watching her beautiful figure as she walked away, Clergy Geromes eyes briefly held a hint of admiration before quickly turning melancholic.

Although he was a devout believer, a powerful exorcist, and excelled among his peers, Nun Griseldas excellence cast a shadow over his own achievements. Moreover, Nun Griselda was a living saint, dedicated to the Lord in body, mind, and soul, untouchable by mere mortals like him.

Shaking his head with a bitter smile and sighing, young Clergy Gerome left the church.

Meanwhile, in another part of the church

Upon returning to her room, Griselda locked the door. The serene and gentle expression on her face disappeared, replaced by one of pain, inner conflict, and confusion.

She had failed again. Despite her determination to confess her sins, she always hesitated at the crucial moment.

She couldnt do it.

Its all your fault!

With anger and frustration, Griselda angrily threw the Gods and Demons Scripture from her desk to the floor. However, a deep sense of guilt surged from her soul.

Im sorry! Please forgive me

Like a child who had done something wrong, Griselda hurriedly picked up the Holy Scripture and carefully wiped it, her face filled with remorse.

Trembling hands opened the Holy Scripture, and Griselda read the teachings within, calming her restless and guilt-ridden heart.

But when she came back to her senses, Griseldas face turned as pale as snow.

It had happened again. She had once more betrayed the Lord, betrayed Gabriel-sama!

Regret overwhelmed Griseldas heart. She shouldnt have opened the Evil Gods Demon Scripture out of curiosity. She had opened Pandoras Box and had been cursed by the Evil God, unable to resist

No one knew that the miracle of the Phenex family, the owner of the two Heavenly Dragons, the half-human, half-Devil Kamiya Tenraku, harbored such grand ambitions to become a god.

If she hadnt experienced it herself, Griselda wouldnt have believed such a fact. That man concealed such enormous ambitions!

She wanted to reveal this secret to her fellow church members, even to Gabriel-sama, but what troubled Griselda was her inability to do so. Every time she reached the crucial moment, she would falter.

She knew it was wrong, but she yearned for the world described in the Demon Scripture, irresistibly drawn to the teachings of the Evil God.

Her body, her soul, her beliefeverything belonged to the Lord, to the great Gabriel-sama. But now, she found herself yearning to embrace the Evil God.

She desired to believe in the Evil God, she desired to make Kamiya Tenraku her one and only true master. As time passed, this feeling grew stronger with each passing day. Griselda knew that she must have fallen under some curse from the other side or some peculiar ability of a Sacred Gear.

However, she had no way to free herself. The adversary didnt harm her physically but was invading her soul. She couldnt save herself, nor could she seek help from others. She prayed to the Lord and Gabriel-Sama, completed her duties in the church, and went about her daily routines, hiding any signs of abnormality.

But inside, Griselda was consumed by guilt and torment, watching helplessly as she descended further into the abyss of darkness.

Unconsciously, Griselda once again turned to the Gods and Demons Scripture. Even though it was filled with traps of the Evil God, she found it sacred and magnificent. Each time she read it, she felt a profound inner peace and satisfaction. The conflicting emotions of guilt and contentment continued to intertwine and clash within her.

One side was growing weaker while the other was becoming stronger. Griselda knew that if this continued, it wouldnt be long before she was completely dominated.

Save me, Gabriel-Sama, please save me

Deep within her soul, Griselda, who still held a shred of sanity, continued to call out. But the voice was too faint, too distant for Gabriel in the heavens to hear. What he did hear was the Evil God who sought to dominate her.

Nun Griselda, it wont be Gabriel who saves you; it will be me

In his own room, Tenraku opened his eyes, a wicked smile curling on his lips. Through the Belief threads woven by the Gods and Demons Scripture, Tenraku could hear the prayers and thoughts of his believers, and naturally, he heard Griseldas deep-seated cries.

It seemed his experiment was incredibly successful; the Seed of Belief had taken root and sprouted in the nuns soul. Soon, he would be able to reap the harvest!

As a side note, Irina and Asia were resting on either side of Tenraku, while Xenovia lay on Tenrakus chest, panting. Tonight, the Church trio served Tenraku.

Xenovia, continue, for the sake of your dream.

Tenraku encouraged her as he gently patted Xenovias backside.

Xenovias dream was to serve the Lord and bear a holy child for her master, and at this moment, she was working hard to fulfill her dream.

Yes, Holy Lord-Sama.

With devout devotion, Xenovia seemed to gain immense courage and strength, rising once again
