Seeing the Secret Admiral among them, the people grew extremely excited. Many of them wanted to ask all kinds of questions to the Secret Admiral and the Truth Fairy, and most of them were eager to take selfies with them so they could post the pictures on their social media accounts and gain popularity. However, avoiding the crowd's questions, the Secret Admiral and Truth flew back and soon reached Victoria's house.
"Oh God! People ask so many questions, Truth," the Secret Admiral said as she sat down on the bed.
"You'll have to get used to handling this kind of pressure," Truth replied, sitting on the bed as well. "Because little by little, as people learn more about you, they will start trusting you. And only when you talk to them and answer their questions will they truly place their trust in you, Victoria."
"Truth, tell me one thing," Victoria said as she made her costume disappear and returned to her normal form. "Did I use my powers properly today?"
"Yes, Victoria. And today you didn't even let that artifact fall into the demon's hands," Truth said, praising her. "If Lysandra had been there to see you fight today, she would have been very happy."
But just then, once again, a white light illuminated Victoria's room, and the very next moment, as the light dimmed, Lysandra was standing right there.
"Were you remembering me, Truth?" Lysandra said as she sat down on the bed.
Seeing Lysandra there, both Victoria and Truth immediately straightened up and stood at attention before her, like newly recruited cadets in the army.
"Relax, you two. I'm an angel, not a primary school teacher who carries a stick around to scold students all the time," Lysandra said casually. "Anyway, Victoria, you truly did a good job today and completed your task properly. You've learned to use your powers quite quickly."
As Lysandra smiled while saying this, Victoria and Truth looked at each other with happiness. Then Victoria said to Lysandra, "Honestly, I was really scared, thinking that maybe you had come here again to scold me. But I'm happy to know that you liked my work." As she said this, Victoria suddenly began rubbing her thighs together, while she was still wearing her pink pajamas.
"There's no need to get overly happy or too friendly with me," Lysandra replied. "You handled the situation well this time, so I only came here to encourage you. But don't feel too proud of yourself, because you still have many battles ahead of you. And I saw your costume today—it was actually very well designed. If it ever becomes a new fashion trend among angels, make sure to let me know," Lysandra added, glancing around Victoria's room.
But Victoria's entire focus at that moment was fixed on her vagina, for she was gripped by a strange craving, and her pussy yearned for the touch of a penis. Nothing like this had ever happened to Victoria before; it had all begun only after her rebirth. Seeing her repeatedly rubbing her pussy in such a manner, Lysandra finally intervened.
"What is it, Victoria? Why do you keep touching your vagina?" Lysandra asked, watching her closely.
But Victoria began to blush, prompting Lysandra to speak again, "Tell me, what exactly is the matter?"
Blushing, Victoria replied, "Ever since you brought me back to life after my death and sent me back to Earth, I don't know what has happened to my sexual desire; it keeps getting triggered, and I feel a powerful urge to be intimate with someone. It was never like this before, especially since I am a virgin." As she spoke, Victoria lowered her head.
"Oh! So, have you not charged yourself even once since your rebirth—I mean, your powers?" Lysandra asked, looking surprised.
Hearing Lysandra's words, Victoria was instantly startled and asked, "What are you saying? I'm not some electronic device that needs charging. How on earth would I charge myself?" As she spoke, Victoria looked back and forth between Lysandra and the Truth Fairy in utter shock.
"Forgive me, Victoria; perhaps I should have told you this earlier. Still, it's no big deal. Listen, you will have to charge your powers every month, and for that, you must have intercourse with a person who has true feelings for you in their heart, and then you must break their heart. The pain that person feels after their heart breaks, and the curses they hurl at you, will be what recharges your powers. Look, the logic behind this is simple: to end evil, one must use the power of evil itself. When people's hearts break, the emotions that emerge are true, and those are the emotions you need to recharge yourself." Saying this, Lysandra began looking at her face in Victoria's dressing mirror.
"What are you saying? Does it mean that to maintain my powers, I will have to have physical relations with different people every month?" Victoria asked, screaming.
"Yes, you've understood correctly. Because according to this rule, you cannot sleep with the same person twice; otherwise, your power will vanish on its own, and at that very moment, both you and your family—whose lives I restored under this contract—will die," Lysandra said with a laugh.
Upon hearing Lysandra's words, the Truth Fairy was also stunned, staring at Lysandra with wide, disbelieving eyes. Poor Victoria was in a wretched state from weeping; if she refused to abide by the contract's terms, Lysandra would reclaim her life and the lives of her family, but if she followed them, she would fall in her own estimation.
In that moment, Victoria glared at the Truth Fairy in anger and said, "You knew all of this, and yet you didn't tell me. You call yourself my friend. I hate you, Truth!"
But Truth, who was hearing this for the first time herself, approached Victoria and said, "Victoria, I didn't know any of this. I have only just found out about it myself." As she spoke, Truth also began to cry.
Seeing Truth and Victoria like this, Lysandra burst into boisterous laughter. Watching her, Victoria felt a surge of intense rage. Somewhere deep inside, she wanted to use her powers at that very moment to kill Lysandra, but she knew it would only make matters worse; Lysandra's fellow angels would arrive and take not just her life, but the lives of her entire family. Consequently, she stood still and ceased her weeping.
"Why are you laughing like this, and why didn't you tell me about this condition before I signed the contract?" Victoria demanded, glaring at Lysandra with fury.
Hearing Victoria's words, Lysandra smiled and then walked over and sat beside her. "If I had told you about this beforehand," she said softly, "would you have signed the contract at all?"
At Lysandra's words, Victoria fell silent. At that moment, she felt utterly deceived, and an overwhelming anger toward her own fate surged within her.
Then Lysandra looked at her and said, "Do you really think that God—or any angel connected to Him—would ask you to commit the kind of sins I just described?"
Hearing this, both Victoria and the Truth Fairy stared at Lysandra in shock.
"Yes, you heard that right. I was joking," Lysandra continued. "Your powers come from your purity and your good intentions. You've heard of the Virgin Mary, haven't you? My companions and I work under her, and it is her power that resides within you. And this means only one thing—that as long as you keep yourself under control and preserve your virginity, these powers and your family's lives will remain safe. Because you cannot form any kind of physical relationship with any human, demon, or even an angel."
As she said this, Lysandra magically brought a photograph into her hand—the image of the Virgin Mary.
Placing the photo on Victoria's side table, she said, "From now on, wake up every morning looking at this."
But then Victoria asked, "Then why did you tell me to get physical with other people earlier, knowing that doing so would cause me to lose my powers and result in the death of my family?" As she spoke, Victoria looked at Lysandra in sheer bewilderment.
"Because I wanted to see if, like Aethna, you too would become so obsessed with these powers that you would forget your rules, regulations, culture, and traditions. If you had agreed after hearing my words, I would have stripped those powers away from you that very moment, and your family would have died again. Now that I have told you everything that was written in that contract, I am leaving. But be prepared for new troubles, because after this blow, Aethna will not sit quietly." With these words, Lysandra vanished from the spot.
"Oh god! For a moment, Lysandra nearly scared the life out of me, and I actually believed her words," Victoria said, resting her hand on her head.
"And you started getting angry at me, even though I was shocked myself upon hearing Lysandra. And as for the craving in your pussy—before the rebirth, you were a thin, scrawny girl, but now you are so hot and sexy because your hormones have fully developed due to your powers. That is the reason you were craving sex," Truth Fairy said, pouting as she sat facing the other way.
Hearing the Truth Fairy's explanation, Victoria realized that she had scolded her unfairly, even if unintentionally. She apologized to the Truth Fairy and began trying to make amends.
Meanwhile, in Dark Heaven, chaos had broken out among the demons. The news of Umbraxos being killed at the hands of the Secret Admiral had reached all the demons, but so far, no one had informed the Dark Goddess Aethna, also known as KillWish. Everyone was left wondering who would break the news to her, for it was certain that whoever gave this news to the Dark Goddess was marked for certain death.
