A deal with the devil's incarnate

"I'm a little tired. Cadel, Clovis..." Roryiana stared at the two identical panicking knights in front of her. They are her twin knights, Cadel and Clovis. Despite being a man and a commoner, she blessed Cadel and his twin sister Clovis, the orphans she saved as black knights which is the highest title bestowed to those knights who are chosen to personally protect their masters.

"I am extremely glad that both of you are alive, you must...keep it that way." The knights stared at their master, teary-eyed.

"Master...could it be that- You're concerned for us? We are so grateful for this honor my liege!" The twin knights exclaimed in unison while wiping their tears.

She gave them both a light pat in their heads and called the attention of her aide who didn't stop working with the invitations despite all the commotion "Nero."

"Yes, Master?" He lifted his head. Nero is Roryiana's aide. Although men are not allowed to study, Roryiana sponsored Nero when he was young and allowed him the opportunity to study and become her aide.

Roryiana approached him and gently wiped the blood falling from the blindfold that he always wear. "Your eyes are bleeding once again. Go to the physician and have him examine you...It seems that the medicine have lost its effects."

Nero flinched at the sudden action. He was confused by the sudden whiff of gentleness that his master has bestowed to him.

"..." He was silent for a while but he eventually responded "Yes, master."

"Very well. All of you, leave for now." The three of them bowed to their master and left without questioning anything.

Roryiana sat in the sofa located at the middle of her estate's main office. Her hands started shaking and her heartbeat rose in an irregular level. She can feel it...An extreme amount of rage that she has never felt before. It clouded her vision and the adrenaline rushed throughout her entire being.

"Why...did I go back once again? Why do I keep repeating the same thing over and over again...Please...someone tell me...when will this end..." Tears started to fall from her beautiful crystal like eyes.

[Host's mentality has decreased a lot. There are several potions that might assist the host. The system recommends checking out the potion shop.]

Her lips pulled back as she bared her teeth, and her veins emphasized how extremely angry she is. She grabbed the glass in front of her and smashed it to the wall. The wall was stained by the red wine that was once in the glass.

At that moment, there was only one thing in her mind.

She was done.

While it is true that she was mad for she has suffered too much with the betrayals, the deaths, and the tragedies from her past life time-- what caused her rage the most, however was not those facts. Instead, it was the fact that-

She wasn't able to take her well deserved vacation.

Yes, You indeed read it right.

Her well deserved-

Vacation.

Ah. How lovely would it be if only she could bask in the sunlight while rolling around the green grass in her small backyard on the outskirts of the city~

"This is the fucking fourteenth time. Did you hear me you son of a bitches who claimed to be Gods?! THIS IS THE FOURTEENTH REINCARNATION I HAD AND I HAVE YET TO EXPERIENCE A LUXURIOUS AND PEACEFUL VACATION BEFORE REINCARNATING ONCE AGAIN?! WHY!!" She rolled over to the floor and started throwing a tantrum. Roryiana saw the golden statue of the God of War and she immediately stood up so she can smash it in the ground.

"You know what? Fuck this. Fuck the Gods, Fuck this system, Fuck everything! I'm so fed up. Alright, you damned system, You won't give me my vacation? Fine. It's time you burn in hell. Click option, delete the system."

[Yes host, commencing the operation: Delete sys-- WAIT WAIT WAIT WHAT?! HOW DARE YOU DELETE ME?! IF I FAIL THIS MISSION ONE MORE TIME, YOU'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO'S GOING TO DIE---Ah shit.]

Roryiana's breath hitched. Her lips started to turn upward and her smile- oh her smile was similar to that of the devil's incarnate. Her whole being was quivering with excitement. She felt the chills straight right through her soul, going right through her bones and flowing through her veins.

"Oho, so you're not just a system."

[...]

The system's silence confirmed one thing.

One important thing.

Something that could have turned the games upside-down a long time ago.

This damned system.

This god forsaken system.

Was not just a system.

And when you have the upper hand, what would you do?

Of course. Nothing works better than one thing.

Scam.

She was going to rip off the system and scam it until it begs her forgiveness.

"It's a little bit too late for that buddy. Alright, you better listen to me before I blow both of our heads off. You know very well that I am capable of doing that."

[....Bloody hell]

"Bloody hell for sure. I'll take my time milking you out until I scare the living daylight out of you."

[Fuck! D-do you think you're allowed to do this?! Without me you won't have a-]

"Come on now, let's be honest here my sweet little bunny. The worst that could happen without you is death. Just how many times have I died already? Even if I die, I'll just reincarnate anyways. In fact, loosing you would be beneficial. I won't have any punishments anymore and I can do what I want~"

[Y-you won't dare!]

"Don't test my patience bunny. You should never underestimate what a four hundred and two years old furious, tired, and vacationless woman would do. You must have forgotten that I castrated my ex lover for cheating on me back in my original world. This time, however, I won't castrate your head down below, but your head above!"

[Y-you devil! F-fine what do you want me to do?!]

"Nothing much. Just do whatever I tell you to do."

[How is that nothing much, you vile host?!]

"I'll take that as a voluntary yes. Alright, first and foremost. Tell me about everything- and I mean it when I say everything."

[I can't...]

"If you don't tell me-"

[I really can't!]

"Alright then, I won't force you to tell me everything. In exchange you must tell me about them."

[About who?]

"Them."

[By them...do you perhaps mean--]

"The Gods."

[NO! IMPOSSIBLE! I can't reveal anything outside my grasp. ESPECIALLY NOT ABOUT THAT! Things are as simple as it seems. This is more than just a puny fights between kingdoms in this world-- #%@^ error. System error. The system is not allowed to reveal classified information. As punishment, both the system host and the host bearing the system will receive a temporary shut down punishment. Punishment commencing- now.]

Roryiana's head suddenly rang. It felt heavy. Like a brick of huge stone was slammed directly in her skull. In a span of a few seconds, she lost her consciousness. She fell in the ground like a lifeless corpse.

After she passed out an unidentifiable creature walked in through the window. The creature lifted Roryiana from the floor and transferred her to the sofa.

"Such a bothersome being. An intelligent yet stupid human. And this system too, how could he be so careless. My, my. This system seemed to have taken after its host. Isn't it common sense that you should never talk about them? After all, they are--"

"Gods."
