The Rise Of Calamity

[You beat Yuri up when you came back from beating up the wyvern]

'Oh, crap... I did do that' I hammered my fist onto the center of my palm while simultaneously making everyone in the room look at me weirdly.

"What?" I looked back at them with a raised brow.

"Nothing" Rose waved it off for them.

Shrugging my shoulders, I also walked in while closing the doors of my hotel room before walking towards all of them who had just taken every space on the couch and asking "So, why are you guys here?"

"To chillax! Part-ayyy~" Xolder laughed, causing him to get another hard slap at the back of his head from River.

"We just wanted to smooth out our relationship before you left" River finally sighed and explained.

"Really? Then where are the rest of you guys?" I asked with a nonchalant shrug.

"Well, we have a little party we have planned for you. The sisters and giants are preparing everything back in the club so we came here to get you to come with us." River smiled

"Not Interes-" before I could even finish speaking, I looked at the pitiful-looking Olivia, causing me to sigh and finally say "Alright. I'll come." 

"Woo- Ouch!" Xolder was about to celebrate, yet he was hit with another fist to the top of his head.

"Really?" Rose looked a little shocked

"Of course, there is one condition" An innocent smile stretched across my face, yet everyone in the room except Xolder immediately became on guard.

[Is this what they call a women's instinct?]

'Nope. It is just that the guy in this situation is a slight numbskull' I chuckled

"My condition is that you get a few bottles worth of that wine I got from the forest" I winked at Rose who looked at me with a blank expression.

Even after a few seconds, her face was still blank so I decided to hint even harder.

"You know, the wine I got after killing the wyvern?" Her face was still blank.

[You are not hinting hard enough]

'HOW CAN I HINT HARDER!?' I retorted

"Ugh. I'll tell you later" I rolled my eyes

"So you're coming, right?" River narrowed her eyes. She did not look particularly happy about how all of this had been planned out, however, she could not complain outwardly so the most she could do was show slight changes to her facial expression. 

I on the other hand did not need her facial expression to know how she felt due to the fact that her soul flame told me everything that she was feeling at every moment of our conversation. Right now, she felt a mixture of annoyance, jealousy, and weariness.

[I think she thinks that you are gonna steal her cinnamon roll] Hela laughed with her robotic voice.

'Hahahaha'

After speaking for a little longer, we finally decided to move on and get ready to go. After all of them except Yuri, Olivia and Rose had left, I looked at rose and blurted out "Put the wyvern blood into bottles and bring it over. Make sure to give me all the bottles before we go inside."

It was only then that Rose finally widened her eyes as if understanding something that she had struggled to understand for centuries. However, her expression turned sour extremely quickly before looking at me as if I was some kind of monster

"What? It tastes nice okay! I have the gluttony sin, I can literally eat anything and this has been one of the best-tasting drinks I have ever tasted." I crossed my arms

Rose quickly shrugged off what I had said and left the room alongside Yuri. Right after they left, I and Olivia began to get ready. Even though I was planning to wear my Discarded Devil's uniform to the party, Olivia made sure that I would dress up nicely for it even though I could not care less about how I dressed.

After using me as a dress-up doll for an hour, she finally decided that the black dress that barely reached my knee was the best option.

The dress was completely black, however, with it came a few strands of gold that I had to wear as if it was a purse alongside a golden belt and golden heels.

"Do I really have to wear this?" I asked as my face flushed slightly at how much it revealed my legs.

"It looks really good!" Olivia replied with a little too much excitement, making me look at her with a skeptical furrow of the brows.

After seeing her look away from me with a shameless expression, I could not help but furrow my brows even further, yet I chose to ignore her while making a note to teach her a lesson when we get back to Lagua city.

It only took us another 30 minutes to get completely ready, allowing us to walk outside while making sure both our masks were on.

Another 15 minutes passed and we were finally in front of the entrance of the private club and I could already feel countless powerful figures conversing within. While none of them seemed to be as powerful as Rose, there were 5 of them that could probably rival her if they were to attack her at the same time, dare I say even win.

"Let's go" I sighed as I thought of how much of a crappy night today would be. This was only until I remembered what I has asked Rose to do for me. While at first, this was just a way for me to make sure that Olivia would not lose touch with the outside world while also being a way for her to recover, now it had become all about the wyvern blood that I would massacre to just have a taste of again.

As we walked downstairs, Olivia turned her head towards me and opened her mouth. 

"Thank you~" She smiled, something I could easily see with my divine eyes.

"No problem" I smiled as well, but unlike me, she could not see through my mask and therefore could not see my smile.

Once I stepped into the club, it seemed like everyone had become completely silent, all looking at me as if I was a mixture of a terrifying ghost and a gorgeous goddess.

"Looks like our main guest is here" Raquaz announced over the voice-enhancing crystal that caused his voice to echo throughout the room.

*CHEER*

*CHEER*

*CHEER*

I looked upon the cheering crowd with a dumbfounded expression.

'Since when was I this popular?'
