Chapter 211: Dante took Valentina's soul forever.
"What is this?" Valentina asked, clearly knowing what a marriage certificate is, it's obvious, but what she wanted to understand was, why now? After everything, why did he only show it to her now?
Skyla watched from behind, her eyes wide with shock. She had never thought Dante would do something like this... he was quite carefree when it came to formalities and was quite similar to Valentina, who didn't care about anything or anyone and would ignore anyone who questioned him and treat them like an inferior person.
"At least he won't kill anyone like that crazy woman," she thought while watching her mistress reading calmly from the paper.
As she read the golden paper, Dante just smiled while eating a toast with jam and drinking black coffee, which was quite sweet.
"Skyla, you've improved in cooking in ten years," he commented with a smile, Skyla blushed... "What the hell is this? Again!" She roared and turned around, "Hmph, of course I've improved, I'm the best employee that exists!" She huffed and replied to Dante, who just smiled seeing how assertive she was towards him.
"It's just that way... I should give you a reward, what do you want?" He asked with a mischievous smile, clearly flirting with her, Skyla feeling it again. "Hmph!! I don't want anything from you!" She said, again huffing and turning her face with a pout... "Cute." He said and Valentina finished reading the marriage certificate now.
"You haven't answered my question, Dante. Answer me, why now?" Valentina asked, and he looked at her with a loving smile, "I want to ensure that you will be my first wife, forever." He said, his obsessive eyes almost engulfing Valentina's face, as if... at that moment, Dante was orbiting around Valentina like the sun and the moon around her.
"T-t-so possessive." Valentina thought, seeing the two black fissions like an abyss, despite... "Why is this? I'm sure it wouldn't happen if we were more carefree with formalities. We're always been like that. You wouldn't do something like this without any problem that would come after." Valentina said, nothing passed through her eyes even though it was real possessiveness.
She knew it wasn't just that; after all, it was Dante they were talking about. He was the only one on earth who would disobey an order from Valentina. Why? Because he could.
"Ahh~" Dante sighed heavily while looking at Valentina's red eyes. "Nothing can be ignored, right?" Dante said, and decided to reveal some things to Valentina. After all, she was the first one he would trust in a crisis. "In twenty years, something will happen in our world" Dante said, and Valentina raised her eyebrows, waiting for him to continue.
"I would love to spend all my time just going on dates with all of you, passing years going out and having fun with you and the others, but we don't have time to rest, not just something will happen in twenty years, but... Hell is at War Total right now." Dante said, and slightly smiled. "Valoran, ninth floor of hell, capital of hell." He revealed, summoning a kind of hologram, more like a portal.
Valentina just saw a peculiar scene...
"Demons killing demons..." She said, Dante just looked at it and said, "Lilith is losing right now, and I have a contract to fulfill with her, but it starts in 11 months and two weeks." He said... "What made you make a contract with the Queen of Demons?" Valentina asked seriously...
"My evolution as a Demon King needed to be delayed, as well as some other problems in this evolution, since she is the mother figure, she gave me a help in exchange for a contract..." Dante said again with sadness, as if... he wasn't strong enough.
"Naturalmente if it were anyone else besides Dante who ignored him and didn't take it seriously. But since it was coming from the woman who taught him how to fight and taught him everything he knew about this world... it was really special for him to hear this from Valentina."
"Thank you, dear." Dante said with a smile and the woman did the same, "Then, this settles everything." She said when her finger stained with blood smudged her name on the contract...
"For all eternity, I will be your wife." She said with a happy smile, and Dante did the same. "Even if the forever ends, I will be yours." He said and the contract broke and Dante...
"Congratulations, you sold your soul to a demon." He said smiling, "Sell? What nonsense, I only gave my soul to the man I love most in this whole world, it's just an investment that will have infinite return." Valentina felt good with sentimental words, now she was really his, so his that she could never separate from him again.
"Tsk, this sweetness gives me chills." Skyla commented on the table, leaving the two statuesque... "Skyla..." Dante said looking deep into his soul... "Do you want to be fired?" Dante asked... "What did I do?" She exclaimed, as if it were an unfounded accusation. "Well, apparently you don't like me so much after all, don't you?
I don't need an employee who doesn't like her master and makes malicious comments... seems like after Valentina got sweeter, you're pretty free now aren't you?" Dante said.
"What are you doing?" Valentina asked through magic communication. "Playing with my employee." He responded... "I'm sure she is mine." Valentina replied.
"Okay, fire me." Skyla said, and completed "Including paying my vacations, my labor rights and the food allowance and health card that Valentina withheld from taxes for the last six hundred and seventy-three years, six months, fifteen days and... one hour and thirty-six minutes and forty seconds." She said looking at her watch on her wrist.
Valentina and Dante were... in shock after what Skyla had just said, I mean... "D-Did you count everything?" Dante asked incredulously, but something that still left him more shocked... "And... You're withholding taxes, dear?" Dante said, looking at Valentina...
Fiu-fiu
Fiu-fiu
Fiu-fiu
Valentina started whistling while turning her face, Dante just... remained with his mouth open... "I mean, you're not theoretically the richest person after the Old Weird Vlad?" Valentina didn't respond and continued to whistle into the distance...
Meanwhile, Skyla... well, she was already almost passing out from holding back her laughter... And finally, she couldn't take it anymore...
"HAHAHAHAHA" she screamed with laughter, while putting her hand on her stomach as it was so strong that the laughter was coming out, "Hahahaha!" She continued laughing, while her eyes began to tear up...
"Sério, what an irrational woman haha" Dante said while smiling and lightly laughing at the girl who seemed like a child laughing at a stupid joke, Dante looked at Valentina and she was also smiling.
"Maybe I... should make Skyla... No, it wouldn't be right now." He thought and got up from his chair and went to Skyla who continued to laugh, but tried to recover and suddenly, she felt a hand placed on her head and looked up.
It's worth remembering that currently Dante has the same height as Valentina, which can be compared to two meters, while Skyla is about 1.6 meters tall, so she really has to look up to face Dante.
"I know you've been getting a lot of work, sorry for playing with firing you, since you're a very hardworking woman, it's just that you're too perfect and I like seeing you working hard, that combines with your cuteness." Dante said with a smile on his face, while stroking Skyla's head...
"P-P-Perfect?" She stuttered, while her whole face turned red with shame or embarrassment at hearing Dante's words.
"Yes, you're perfect in everything, the way you are... But it's even more perfect when you're working for me, the perfect employee" He said in a slightly... luxurious tone... Skyla felt this and jumped quickly backward, moving away. "Lady Elizabeth Tepes wants to speak with you! I'll tell her quickly that you'll receive her!" She said and ran away as fast as possible, like a lightning bolt...
Dante looked at Valentina and just smiled "Where did you find her? She's very competent" He said smiling.
"Humpf! You're very gallant! You were flirting with your employee in front of your wife!" She said while puffing irritably, but Dante knew what she wanted... "You know, if you want something, just ask." He said appearing in front of her like a flash of darkness. "Hmm is that so?" She said while tracing her lips with her fingers... "What do I want?" She said smiling, and Dante held her hands.
"Maybe it's... that" He said and deeply kissed her... "Until death do us part..." Valentina said as she pulled away from the kiss... "Death will not separate us again." He said...
Dante took Valentina's soul forever, now, even if she dies in battle, or anything like that and her soul is not destroyed, she will always return to Dante, after all... Her soul will always go to Hell.
Where Dante will always hold her, this was the first marriage of souls that Dante made, the Marriage that unites their souls.
