Boom!!

Inside the underground palace, four rays of multicolored light exploded suddenly and intertwined continuously. The black chains were suspended in midair by a force field and did not move at all.

Veska’s entire body was enveloped by dark blue seawater whirlpool, and the dagger in his hand was soaking in seawater. His surroundings were filled with the echoes of crashing ocean wave noises. His eyes were like deep sea whirlpools that were almost bottomless.

"Choking Blade…" First Concubine, Her Excellency Delouse, or God Cloud, was currently smiling while looking at the dagger in Veska’s hand. "Ocean Ultimate Technique Whirlpool Blade. Legend says that it is a terrifying weapon that can silently cause the death of others, and today is the first time I’ve seen it properly."

She looked at the light blue halos that circled her surroundings, as her eyes blinked in awe.

"You already know my strongest Ultimate Technique, but you’re still brave enough to show off?" Veska spat coldly. "However, I’m not your most important opponent today."

Standing on the sidelines, the captain of the Silver Knights, Woods and the King of the Stars from the Geometry Service both smiled simultaneously and took a step forward together.

"With Lord Veska possession of the distortive power of the Original Heirlooms, the next step will depend on us."

Woods leaned on his wooden staff, as a cloud of black smoke circled the top of the staff and formed a whirlpool there, the center of the whirlpool seemed to have a terrifying gaze looking outwards.

He raised his wooden staff and pointed it towards God Cloud suddenly.

A hissing noise could be heard as a cloud of black smoke spurted out suddenly, and flew towards God Cloud. The black smoke was accompanied by an inexplicable heartbeat noise that pumped continuously, causing mysterious sound waves.

"Oh? Fragile Eye? An Ultimate Totem ability that allows one to mold their opponents?" God Cloud’s hands were placed together and then separated, before a dark green ball floated at the center of his palms suddenly, emitting a strange green light.

The circle floated in the middle of God Cloud’s chest, as thin transparent distortions began floating out of it, and landing on the empty spaces in the surroundings.

"Second activation, distortion!"

God Cloud said the Precious Heirloom’s activation commands.

The empty spaces near him suddenly began shaking slowly.

Both Woods’ black smoke and Veska’s Choking Blade halos were suddenly shaken up by the strange distortive powers.

Bang!!

Both powers collided with one another directly, before extinguishing themselves in a clearing nearby.

The moment the powers collided, the distortive waves from the distortive beads quickly stopped suddenly as well.

King of the Stars held a paintbrush, and the dancing flame on the burning paintbrush began to burn brighter.

"Dimensions of drawn destruction!"

His shadow spread out in a flash suddenly, as the tip of the paintbrush began shooting out black flames.

Shh…!

The paintbrush that King of the Stars held began to etch black drawings in the air, enveloping God Cloud’s surroundings. These drawings floated towards God Cloud like pieces of black ribbon, and also like countless black snakes.

Hiss!

The strands of black ribbon began weaving inside when the distortions stopped, and the place they flew towards was coincidentally the back of God Cloud’s head.

****************

A few thousand kilometers away, at an important checkpoint at the West Farm defense line.

The night sky was filled with stars, and the dots of blue light were like diamond fragments that embellished a black curtain, and were densely packed, as they drifted off far away quietly.

Under the starlight, the guards at the bright, lamp-lit checkpoints yawned a few times and were about to drift off to sleep.

Woo~~!!

Suddenly, an ear-piercing warning siren suddenly rang out from one of the checkpoints that were further away.

Bang!!

A large cloud of yellow fireworks exploded in the sky, resembling a yellow flower.

The guards were almost frightened to the point where they fell on the floor, as they wiped the saliva on the corners of their mouths frantically, and carefully deciphered the faraway warning signals. Next, they rushed towards the fence frantically and peered downwards.

Vaguely, they could see that the black checkpoint wall had collapsed, and was also faintly dotted with countless green and red spots of light, which were actually the eyes of numerous monsters.

The guards began to shiver and did not hesitate any longer.

Woo!!!!

The checkpoint sounded its ear-piercing alarm immediately.

***********

The sound of frantic footsteps.

Inside the Kovitan defense line’s main command room.

Throughout the corridor, a group of silhouettes in full-bodied black cloaks walked towards the main command room quickly.

The man at the front had a face that was ghostly pale, and his blinking eyelids were purple, while his lips were pitch-black. His collarbones on both sides were now connected to biochemical tube-like tracts, and the tracts were translucent and light yellow, while light yellow fluids flowed throughout them constantly, causing a large number of air bubbles to form occasionally. It gave off a strange quality.

The Totem Users and workers on the surrounding corridors would leave quickly with their heads downcast and bow the first moment they saw him. All of their eyes were filled with looks of horror and a touch of fear.

Bang!

The man pushed opened the metal door at the end of the corridor quickly and brought the others into the main command room.

Inside the command room, a middle-aged man in a white coat stood in front of a large map of the kingdom with his eyebrows knitted tightly. His surroundings were densely packed with office desks filled with over a hundred workers who were seated there and collected large amounts of information from the outside world.

When he saw that the main door had been pushed open, the middle-aged man furrowed his eyebrows and looked over.

"How’s the situation?" The man in black had a feminine voice that resembled a woman’s, but he did not have a woman’s gentleness, as he gave off a fierce, demon-like air instead.

"The situation is terrible! There were a total of forty-two checkpoints in the defense line that released reports at the same time!" The middle-aged man shook his head. "I’ve already passed the message to the kingdom, but I’m afraid that they have yet to respond until now."

"Don’t wait for them anymore, since the situation at the kingdom remains unchanged, I offer my services as the chief for life, and I will step forward to accept the guarding tasks of the entire defense line." The man in black’s tone was unquestionable.

"Vice chief, this matter is the responsibility of the National Service."

"It is not your responsibility anymore." The man in black reached his hand out, exposing his five slender fingers that were painted in a layer of purple nail polish, while a black bracelet embedded with diamonds was worn on his wrist, causing bell-like jingle noises when he moved.

"This is what the chief of the Geometry Service intended, as he is busy getting rid of the nests of the newly aberrated monsters, and as the situation on the surface is still not optimistic, I have volunteered myself to come here for a visit."

The man in white narrowed his eyes and glared at the other man. He knew that although the situation was urgent, once he gave in, it would troublesome for him if he wanted to regain total command from his opponent ever again.

"Idiot!! Why are you hesitating? What’s the use if the defense line was defeated by a stronger power?!" The vice chief snorted coldly. "According to the Secret Service‘s reports, currently outside the defense line, the five highly dangerous nests that were initially noticed are now moving quickly towards our direction, and our time is running out!"

"Highly dangerous nests?!!" The middle-aged man’s body shuddered. "Fine! I’ll give you transfer the system control rights to you immediately!"

He turned around.

"Martha!"

"Captain Colossus, sir," said a gentle woman’s voice within earshot of the men. "Martha number 2 at your service."

"Transfer my highest control rights to Lord Yesha, the vice chief of the Geometry Service!"

Bang!!!

Suddenly, a loud roar shook the ground. The quakes made it almost impossible for the command room to remain standing.

"The defense line… has been broken!!!"

The two highest commanders glanced at each other and saw a trace of fear in each other’s eyes.

"How is this possible?! The final defense contains twelve Spiritualized Totem Users, and is guarded by two Form 4 generals!! How could they not have released even one message?!"

Some of the staff officers stood up suddenly.

A large and powerful reaction is coming closer to us quickly!!" yelled one of the staff officers frantically, while he stared at the arching, translucent screen floating in front of him, as a large cluster of red dots rushed towards a blue area rapidly. One of the red dots was abnormally huge and took up half of the screen.

Both of the commanders shivered and rushed towards the screen that the man was monitoring.

"This… This is…!!??"

"Giant Stone Sculpture…!!!" The Vice Chief of the Geometry Service’s voice rang out bitterly. "Ender’s Giant Stone Sculpture…"

**********************

Plop…

A drop of fresh red blood dripped on the floor.

It dropped on the large pile of black ruins and rubble in between the palace.

The left side of Garen’s body had been expanded by a meter, as the ten meters long, large white sword cut a deep gash there, while the blade had almost sliced off one-third of his body.

On the border of the red wound, pools of fresh thick blood circled around constantly, trying to flow back into the wound, as a layer of thin flesh began growing at the corners quickly, attempting to heal the wound once again.

"Hee… Hee hee…" Garen laughed quietly.

Plop!!

He held the large sword in one hand and took a heavy step forward.

Boom!

A tearing sound could be heard, as the blade tore his long wound open again. The immense pain pierced Garen’s nerves constantly.

He ignored it and took a step forward again.

Bang!

The hand that Edin used to hold the hilt was sliced open suddenly, as fresh blood began to drip down the hilt slowly as before.

"It’s over…" He looked at Garen who was inching closer, and said softly.

The ring on the large silver ring sword stopped turning suddenly.

Garen’s footsteps halted suddenly as well, as the expression on his face began to froze.

Tch tch tch!

In that moment, endless amounts of blood began spraying out of Garen’s body.

There was a ‘bang’ before his entire body immediately exploded into a cloud of dark red blood mist.

Within the blood mist, countless white rose petals sliced him like blades continuously, strangling him, as if the blood mist was being sliced into even smaller pieces.

But Edin remained motionless, as he clenched the hilt tightly, while his gaze glared at the blood mist nearby.

"Ready?"

"Of course." The shadow of a girl who wore a crown of white roses appeared behind him slowly, except that her image only included her upper body, while she was holding a long white sword in her hand as well. "Such strong vitality!"

A shocked look appeared in the girl’s eyes as she looked at Garen’s blood mist.

"My White New Moon sword causes every opponent that touches the sword itself to be strangled by unending flower petals, and regardless of the strength of their vitality, they all die eventually." Edin closed his eyes as he was somewhat mentally tired by now.

"Let’s begin then." The girl nodded. "What a shame, another genius died at the mercy of your sword again."

"This is inevitable." Edin opened his eyes slowly with both hands still holding the hilt.

The girl stood behind him and held the hilt of his sword as well.

"End of the fantasy…"

"End of the fantasy!"

Their voices chorused with one another, as they raised their long swords at the same time.

"Silver Flowers!"

They placed their swords together suddenly, as the shadows of Edin and the girl became one as well, while four hands held the hilt of the sword tightly, and dashed towards the blood mist quickly.
