After joining Palmer and Merdillâs forces, Seiraâs party continued to head west until they finally arrived in Armorica.
The city was destroyed.
But it wasnât dead.
They werenât the only ones who heard the rumor. Survivors from other regions were gathering.
Seira, who found an acquaintance, looked pleased.
âDear Angelica!â
Angelica, the Rhamniana Templar Lord, was alive, too.
That was thanks to the sacrifice of Frederick, the Templar Lord of Sorondi.
âYouâre safe, Seira. Iâm so relieved.â
The remnants of the Three Continental Powers, survivors of the six Churches, the Upper Draconiumâs Ancient Dragons freed from the ban, and Latnaâs Hunters endured the attack of angels and monsters.
Everyone mourned the dead and vowed revenge with anger.
Fortunately, there was hope.
Following the darkness, the light descended on this earth.
* * *
Han-binâs group, the surviving Fairy Kingdom, and the heads of the six denominations gathered in front of the incarnation of light.
Althea slowly spoke.
âThis is the Omphalos plan.â
Phase one, the Lord Throughout Heaven and Earth.
Throughout Latna, a vast network of sacrosanct powers was unfolded to rule out the influence of six Goddesses.
âItâs not exactly what weâve been doing.â
The six Goddesses laid out the great power of protection in this world. That was why the Devil didnât come down directly to Latna.
But this protection wasnât an intelligent shield or armor.
âItâs more of a strong iron grid.â
She compared the six Goddessesâ protections to a large chunk of iron.
It was a ball big enough to make shields or armors to equip the army with.
But what if it was the houses that were protected?
If they spread out a lump of iron and covered all the houses, the thickness of the plate would become too thin. If they just tapped it, it would breakthrough.
âTo achieve efficient defense with limited resources, weâll need to have a lot of gaps.â
Taking the form of iron bars rather than shields, it seemed racy at first glance, but the invasion of Omphalos was certainly preventable.
Han-bin murmured as if he understood.
âItâs Dungeons, the Alien monsters, and the Earthlings like me who squeezed through the gap between the bars?â
âThatâs true for Dungeons and Alien monsters. The Earthlings are a little bit different.â
âDifferent?â
âTheyâre special.â
Althea, who was answering casually, looked around and clicked her tongue.
âI canât talk about it here. Letâs discuss it later.â
That aside, like the Goddesses, there was a gap in the Devilâs protection.
Using the gap, Althea of Light sent her incarnation down to earth.
In the meantime, the Devil had gone to the next level.
Phase two, Heavenly Net.
If the influence of the Goddesses were excluded, the next step was for Omphalos to become the only God in the world. For that reason, the Devil forced Latnaâs intellectual bodies to serve him.
After lowering pain and fear, he threw ways to avoid it, lowered hunger, lowered thirst, gave misfortune, and injected futureless joy.
âIf one truly loves their creation, they should never do it. However, heâs not the creator of this world, so he doesnât care at all.â
Althea sighed.
Though the Omphalosâs false blessing fooled the believers, she couldnât blame them that they were stupid.
How many people could be free from the pain and fear in front of them?
A heroâs life of overcoming hardships and adversity and eventually fulfilling his beliefs were certainly right and beautiful, but breaking faith and compromising with reality didnât mean it was wrong and ugly.
Read at wuxiaworld.eu It was just normal human behavior.
Latnaâs believers who had succumbed to Omphalosâs awe and faith they sent would be the power of the Devil to infringe on this world.
âWhen he has gathered as much as he needs, the final phase kicks in.â
Phase three, the Possession of God.
After collecting the worldâs components, the entire Latna would be smashed and transformed into something completely belonging to the Devil.
The world of the six Goddesses would disappear, and this world would be the cradle for the new Kaldera.
âOnce he activates the possession of God, itâs over. Thereâs no way we can use our hands anymore.â
So they needed to slow down the current phase as much as possible.
The Pope of Light asked, bowing and scraping.
âTeach us what we need to do, Incarnation of Althea.â
The girl addressed everyone.
âBreak the angel statues with all your might.â
The second phase of the Devilâs plan was being carried out through tens of thousands of angel statues, the columns of Kaldera, which had taken root throughout the continent.
Breaking it would slow down the Devilâs plan.
Ryu Han-binâs eyes shone.
âAll right, Iâm just gonna have to break down the angelsâ statues, then?â
Effir and Artisâs facial expressions also brightened up.
Those who had a definite purpose were motivated.
âThatâs not your job.â
Althea shook her head.
âIsnât this easy to guess even without the wisdom of a Goddess?â
It was easy to infer for anyone who just had an idea.
There was a separate plan for the Goddesses she had prepared.
âThe destruction of angels is only a quick fix.â
Omphalos was powerful. He would keep pulling out new angels and building new pillars.
Though they destroyed the angel statues, it wouldnât stop at all, even if it might slow down the coming doom a little.
âWhile others are buying timeâŚâ
The incarnation of light looked at Han-bin and Kibie.
âThereâs something you need to do.â
* * *
The ownerless Shukas estate, formerly part of the Mali kingdom in the countryside.
The female Magic Swordsman wearing blue armor flew through the overflowing waters.
Every time she wielded her twin swords, a gust of wind blew the heads of the Alien monsters.
âYou bastards!â
Drenched in blood, Angelica roared.
âThis is for Frederick!â
The knights of Latna followed her.
Seira quickly spoke to them.
âAlthea, give us your protection!â
Thanks to that, knights pushed the monsters even more violently. Fierce battles erupted all over the place.
In the sky, a Giant Dragon was spewing fire.
Boom!
Upper Draconiumâs Ancient Dragons and the Fire Dragon Willatâs Breaths were powerful. In an instant, a wide path was drilled between the groups of monsters.
At the end of it stood a three-meter angel statue.
Seira screamed.
âLord Angelica!â
Angelica gritted her teeth and executed magic swordsmanship again.
-Magic Swordsmanship: Horn of the Storm Dragon!
Wrapping the wind blades all over her body, she became a gust, flooding the face of the angel statue. She then hit it with her sword.

âBroken!â
* * *
Boom!
The angel statue was shattered with a heavy explosion.
The shattered debris became a particle of light and disappeared by itself. All that remained was a large pit and a trail of its roots.
âWhoa, good. I cleared this place, too.â
Palmer caught his breath, his battleax in hand, but he couldnât rest.
Breaking the angel statue didnât mean it was over. There were still a lot of Alien monsters around.
âIâll have to kill them!â
The Dwarven warrior charged as he clenched his ax. His knights and soldiers once again strengthened their wills.
A light of recovery sank over everyoneâs heads.
It was Leslieâs spiritual art.
Looking back at her, Palmer gave her a look of admiration.
â⌠I didnât expect you to do this, Hollienâs ex-maid.â
In an indifferent tone, Leslie replied, âBecause itâs your order.â
The order of her owner, Ryu Han-bin, whom she met again in Armorica, was simple.
Follow Palmer around and do his orders.
âMy master has commanded me, and I will give my life to fulfill it.â
* * *
Alien monsters started from the Four Prohibited Areas and spread to the countryside, opening all Dungeons sequentially.
It meant that the more they moved from the center of the continent to the edges of Latna, the lower the monsterâs levels.
Unlike the countryside, the angel statue in the center of the continent was guarded by the Four Prohibited Areasâ inhabitants, ranging from 80 to 90. The angels of the Devil themselves even took part in protecting it.
The mission of destroying the angel statue of northern Allendia consisted of specially chosen strong individuals.
âDonât retreat!â
The former 4th Corps commander of the Mado Kingdom, Balley Fight, wielded a Blade Aura and burst into a furious cry.
Knights and soldiers followed him, formed a formation, swinging their swords and thrusting their spears into the monsters.
Plater took the lead, protecting his body with a spiritual shield.
âRhamniana, heal them with your tears!â
As the Head of the Sages Guild, his power was truly immense. Thanks to that, everyone could fight with all their might.
In the sky, Manakiras, a giant Black Dragon, was fighting against numerous angels.
With a roarâŚ
âDie, puppets of the Devil!â
She stretched her front foot fast, lightly, and incessantly.
Boom!
It was her main specialty, also known as âthe big dragonâs cat-like pounce.â
They were smaller than dragons, and although they had wings, they were still humanoids.
âItâs my most trusted specialty!â
Boom!
The angels who couldnât escape were smashed and crashed.
The power of the Level 140 Ancient Dragon and the Level 121 Spiritist was extraordinary. All the monsters and angels were turned into corpses.
All that remains were their targets, the pillars of Kaldera governing the area.
âHumph!â
Along with a snort, the Aura bullet of Manakiras shattered the angel statue.
Plater urged her.
âGo to the next location.â
The number of angel statues that they had been destroying for days had reached the double digits.
Nevertheless, there was still a long way to go.
The number of columns of Kaldera scattered around the world by Omphalos was around five digits.
âEveryone, get on.â

Manakiras cast her wings over the ground. The knights and soldiers climbed on her back in an orderly fashion.
âLetâs go. Hold on to my scales.â
The giant figure carrying everyone began to rise high in the sky.
* * *
The weak fought the weak, and the powerful fought the powerful.
Each of them did their best to delay the Devilâs plan.
While everyone was doing their best to slow down the catastropheâŚ
âOh, itâs hot.â
Han-binâs group was walking in a large volcanic cave.
After a long walk, dozens of fire spirits appeared and roared.
âArgh!â
Kibie clapped twice.
Clap!
All the spiritual tree of fire was extinguished from the spot.
As they walked a little further, they were met by a large cavity, and a burning giant appeared amid the lava.
âThis is a sacred land, and only those who are qualified can step on itâŚâ
Clap!
The giant of fire sank back without finishing his speech. At the same time, rocks soared through the magma, creating a path.
As they moved deeper, all kinds mental attacks flew inâŚ
âSister, Iâm busy. Go away.
They all disappeared with two claps.
As she walked, Effir burst into laughter.
âGetting the Sacred Heart of Darkness was easy, but it wasnât this much.â
Kibie shrugged.
âYou had the answer sheet before. Right now, youâre tearing the test itself apart.â
Soon, a large red door appeared in front of the partyâs eyes.
It was engraved with flames burning over the door of jewels shining brightly like rubies.
It was proof that the holy place where the sacred item of Yessen, the great Goddess of Fire, was stored within.
Of course, there was no reason for Han-binâs party to be impressed now.
âOpen the door.â
Leon Hart, the Goddessâs Blessed, opened the door.
He thought they had to be cautious in doing so.
Soon the mild heat came out.
Merciful flames covered the place warmly and gently.
âOh, Iâm busy.â
Clap.
It disappeared immediately as it was about to unfold.
Ignoring all the directing, Kibie strode to the center, and she picked up the red bead in the air.
It was the Flames of the Origin.
She took a pouch out of her arms and put the marble in roughly.
Crank~
It struck the Touchstone of the World, the sacred item of Sorondi, the Goddess of Earth.
Artis was bewildered.
âTheyâre the sacred items of the great Goddesses, but youâre handling it so casually?â
Kibie ignored him.
For the Latnains, it was the sacred items of the great Goddesses, but for her, it was just handmade by her sisters.
âWeâre great, arenât we? Iâm ashamed to see the people these days.â
Pouting, Kibie put it back in her arm.
âWeâve collected fire and earth.â

âLetâs get going. Weâre running out of time, so letâs hurry.â
