"The moon may be down, but the sun may be up," Asmodea repeated the incantation, her voice soft and soothing. "However, the time of your relaxation is coming," she added, her tone filled with hope and confidence that Ruby would recover from her wounds and come back stronger than ever before.

After casting the spell on Ruby, Asmodea carefully placed her on a smooth rock to rest. The location was chosen carefully, as it was hidden away in a partially submerged room with a sturdy roof that could protect her from any potential danger that might arise. Ruby could now sleep soundly, without any concern about the Vanishing Storm reappearing.

Asmodea then turned her attention to Reginald, who was still recovering from his injuries. "Don't worry about me, I'll be fine," Reginald replied weakly. "Thank you for your concern, Asmodea."

Asmodea ignored his response and instead positioned a small gem next to Ruby. It was a signaling device that would allow them to locate her again in the future.

"We will come back for you, Ruby," she promised. "And as for you, Reginald of the Parish, don't think for a second that you're safe. If you cross us again, I won't hesitate to end your life."

Reginald nodded weakly, too injured to do much else. Asmodea turned away from him and began to make preparations for their next move. There was still much to be done, and she couldn't afford to waste any more time.

Asmodea was taken aback by the sound of Sitri's voice. It had been quite some time since they had last spoken, and Asmodea had been worried about her friend's well-being. "Sitri!!?" Asmodea asked with surprise and relief evident in her tone.

Sitri responded with a light chuckle, "Yes, it's me. I'm sorry I've been out of touch for so long."

Asmodea was quick to put Sitri's previous disappearance behind her, and the two goddesses began to catch up on what had happened during their time apart. It was during this conversation that Asmodea learned of Reginald's plight and was quick to offer her apologies.

"I'm sorry that I let a reputable member of the Daughters of Lust be knocked unconscious in such a manner," Asmodea said, her tone apologetic and concerned. "Do I have reason to believe that the venom has been extracted from your body?"

Sitri confirmed that she had managed to extract the venom from Reginald's body and that he was recovering well. "Hey, what's up? Let's not murder him yet," Sitri joked, lightening the mood.

"Yes, it is a great stroke of luck that the poison turned out to be of the type that did not cause death, and that it did not remain in the body for very long." Sitri's voice was quiet as she spoke, expressing relief at the fact that the poison was not fatal and did not linger in her body for long.

She attributed this to being lucky, as only 45 minutes had passed between the time she was poisoned and when she regained consciousness after the battle had ended.

Asmodea nodded in agreement and then turned her attention to the captive, Reginald. "Let's bind him up so that he can't move or use his tattoos," she said. "From what you saw during your slumber, if he can't fight back, it should be considered a loss for his team. We should use him as a hostage or for any resources he may have available."

Sitri thought for a moment before responding. "Yes, that sounds like a good plan. We should also search him for any useful items or information that he may have on him."

Asmodea and Sitri proceeded to tie up Reginald with the rope that they had taken from Elizabeth's body. The knot was tight, and Reginald had no chance of escaping.

As he slowly opened his eyes, he realized the gravity of the situation he was in. His captors, Asmodea and Sitri, were standing in front of him, armed and ready to act.

Reginald let out a frustrated "Fuck" as he took in his surroundings. He knew he had been outmatched, and there was little he could do now to change the situation.

Asmodea then took charge and suggested they proceed with caution, warning their captive that they would not hesitate to harm him if he tried anything funny.

Asmodea drew her sword and pointed it menacingly at Reginald, who was now completely at their mercy. "The people are saying to all of their captives, 'Come with us the easy way, and you won't be harmed,'" she announced, her tone firm and confident.

It was clear that she was enjoying the power dynamic of the situation, relishing in the control she now had over Reginald.

Sitri's eyebrows furrowed in irritation as she looked at Reginald, the one who had poisoned her earlier. The frustration was evident in her expression as she spoke.

"If we manage to survive this competition, we may spare your life. But that will only happen if you remain still and keep your mouth shut when we ask you to," she warned him, her voice cold and stern.

Reginald gave a frustrated sigh and rolled his eyes, a look of disgust evident on his face. Despite the fact that he appeared to harbour no ill will towards his captors, the mere fact that he was in such a situation seemed to be irking him.
