Chapter 285: Evil God's Plan

"What, oh no, Ely, oh Ely... Your master turned out to be unreliable for this, huhu... She is now drawn to the wrong side, eh? Why can't I connect to Ely? What happened? Welp--" Nell felt another strange thing happened. Her spiritual connection to Elysia was blocked by something, and she could not penetrate it.

Elysia just stared at the confused Nell with an expressionless gaze. She blocked the spirit connection in her upper dantian, just like Nell had done in the last month, so she couldn't find out Nell's whereabouts or send telepathy.

"Why do you think I will tell you?" Xero kept his black scythe into his mini pocket dimension and folded his arms in front of his chest.

"I do believe because I know you will. Take it easy. Nell won't interfere with anything unnecessary, and neither will I. As long as you don't cause any other havoc, I'll act according to my judgment. I will speak honestly to you. If you don't want to talk, I will take care of that giant energy ball.

As you can see, inauspicious clouds are already spreading so widely. I don't know what will happen next. Still, the drop in temperature within a radius of hundreds of thousands of kilometers is already terrible enough." Elysia didn't play with words or anything anymore. She just went straight to the subtle threat while pointing out the obvious.

Xero sighed, and it seemed that he had no other choice but to speak to satisfy this domineering Goddess's curiosity. To say it harshly, he had no doubt that Elena could do as she said.

"Elena, this stupid Shiro has done despicable things without the supervision of the other gods and goddesses. The blood rune below us is concrete evidence. He used the blood of more than 5 thousand followers for this extraction ritual. We don't know what he has done in the last thousand years." Nell interrupted again, trying to get the Goddess of Light's attention.

Hearing that, Elysia stared at the giant blood rune below her with a complicated gaze. She had mixed feelings because she thought the rune only had red color, or it was from Xero's blood. However, apparently not so.

Besides, she also couldn't try this Evil God in the name of justice, right? She didn't know the details, and Elena advised her not to get involved in it... Return to the main topic and then leave.

Therefore, Elysia put her thoughts aside and looked at Xero, waiting for the answer. She checked Xero's status screen one more time to make sure the changes were taking place, but it was still the same numbers she saw when she first arrived.

[| Lv. 209 | Evil God | Xerroth | Male (N/A) | HP: 5,143,000 / 7,515,000 | EP: 4,134,500 / 5,808,000 |]

[| STR: 725 | AGI: 644 | VIT: 543 | INT: 666 |]

"Is what you tell the truth? Make me sure that you will not interfere in my business." Xero cocked his head to the side, looking at Elena and his giant ball of energy.

"My strength is absolute, and my words are the truth. If you doubt me, then you are the wretched faction. What I will do is nothing more than knowing the situation and seeing how things will go. When push comes to shove, I will be there to take care of situations before the disaster occurs. I'll kill you if you become an accursed monster and lose your mind." Elysia tried to convince Xero, but her intonation was oppressive. As Elena reminded her, she was superior at this point.

Nell was dumbfounded to hear that, and Xero faked a smile. Then, he gave a subtle nod. "Fair enough."

After saying that, Xero shared a few details about his plan to perfect the curse energy in his body, his new power.

Elysia and Elena consulted together to ask questions, while Xero answered some of them and ignored what he couldn't answer. Nell also joined the fray with her opinions.

It started with the experiments he had done from a thousand years ago, five thousand years after his awakening to the world. The countless trial and error, until the crazy things to reach the level that no one ever imagined before.

Yet, it was all done to face the inevitable battle. Devil God left nearly everything just for that, then changed his title to Evil God just because of what he did to himself.

Elysia and Elena understood the enormous risk that the Evil God bore. Basically, he sacrificed himself, but his method was quite selfish and deviated from the divine path.

Most importantly, Xero shared a lot of history with Nell. Based on that, Elysia and Elena concluded Xero only wanted to drive Nell away at this opportunity. Even so, Elysia's vigilance didn't drop just because of that.

'I see... So, like sacrificing one to save a thousand? May those who become sacrifices for this Evil God ritual be blessed in the afterlife... Doing evil for the greater good? I do not know what to do.' After hearing some details from Xero, Elysia muttered with a hint of sorrow in mind.

'Yes, that's it. Just don't overthink about other people's business, Ely. Xero just wanted to be the absolute power to overcome all of the accursed monsters. Honestly, he's just stalling for time, and we let it be. Ely, please prepare yourself if this Evil God truly loses his mind while trying to absorb that gigantic energy ball.' Elena warned after receiving some information from Elysia. She couldn't have direct access to what Elysia saw and heard, which was very disturbing.

'En.' Ely understood very well and continued her conversation with Elena with a lower focus. She paid attention to all the circumstances around her with her advanced perception at all times and also observed every Evil God's movements.

Xero's red eyes lit up with a gleam as the blood rune faded slowly, followed by the cessation of the supply of curse energy to the energy ball in the air. The refining process was complete, and it was time to move on to the next plan.

"That's all for the talk. I need to welcome my perfect power, my perfection." Xero immediately became a flash of shadow and rushed towards the ball of energy without waiting for anyone's response.

"Go ahead." Elysia responded nevertheless. Her arms remained at her sides, ready to cast magic whenever it was.

"Elena, why, you-" Nell wanted to speak at length because of her complaints and disapproval, but the Goddess of Light interrupted her.

"Sshh... Let's take a look at the situation first. He's your old friend, right? Have a little faith in him, and I'll be here to observe the situation. I'll take care of it if things get out of hand." Elysia was aware of what Nell felt, but she couldn't explain much other than giving Nell her reassurance.

Nell could only exhale a sigh and turned her head towards the giant ball of energy in the air. The pitch-black sky still covered this area, and she wouldn't be able to see around if it weren't for her magic vision.

"The absolute power shall be mine to hold." Xero muttered with an evil smirk plastered on his face. He stretched out his hand for the black energy ball and pushed himself inside.

At the same time, a gust of gusts of wind ravaged like a storm that swept across an area hundreds of kilometers away. The dark sky without light rumbled restlessly. Flashes of purple lightning flashed in various directions as if welcoming the arrival of calamity.

"Behold my absolute power!" Xero roared out loud as he spread his arms and legs, bathed in an abundance of curse energy while absorbing everything.

*Kaboom!*

Rows of purple lightning flashed like they were sweeping the land around the ball of energy. An earthquake followed a moment later as if in harmony with Xero's echoing roar.

"This is bad. It's peculiar, and it looks like you made the wrong decision by letting that stupid Evil God finish his plan, Elena, Goddess of Light." The color drained out of Nell's face, but she still stared at the scene in front of her eyes without blinking.

Meanwhile, Elysia and Elena possessed another assumption of this phenomenon. They used the curse energy to level up, and they assumed the same for the Evil God. However, they did not trigger any natural occurrences like this. Perhaps, the ritual thing that the Evil God did had a flaw and gone wrong? Not as practical as them, but this was just too much.

"Urgh... Argh!" Xero let out a loud roar once again with a sound pressure that was more than before.

Nell blanched, but that was not for Elysia. She added another layer of her barrier, then went to the best spot to launch an attack to clear things up if this was beyond the Evil God's control.

Gray streaks appeared from the center of Xero's chest and spread slowly across his body. Slowly but surely, he got tattooed like accursed monsters. His snow-white hair immediately extended to the middle of his back. The small horns on his head also extended upwards.

Xero grinned widely at his success. He felt a surge of power within him, flowing through his veins. Being consumed by his confidence, he immediately absorbed the giant ball of energy until it disappeared entirely with a frequency that exceeded his absorption capability.

His energy absorption's skill screamed for danger, but Xero couldn't do anything either. The turmoil of corruption crept into his mind, clouding his senses as Nell had feared.

"Argh!!!" Xero screamed with a deafening roar, full of pain and anguish. His body was torn apart, his bones were crushed, and his mind was violently shaken.

He clasped his heads together, trying to resist the turmoil of corruption that had invaded his body and mind.

*Kaboom!* *Swoosh!*

A shock wave exploded with the Evil God as the focal point. Thunderstorms, heavy hail, and earthquakes followed as if welcoming their God's rebirth.

At nearly the end of Xero's consciousness, he accidentally caught a glimpse of the golden glow of the six-winged Goddess. The Goddess of Light was there to kill him as she said earlier?
