Chapter 288: Are You Going to Kill Me?
"My Lord, we lost contact with the vanguard team. Red spirit signal, they died because of the Evil God." Doominick informed shortly after receiving the spirit signal in question. Five of his elite subordinates died just like that from the impact of a God class battle, which so regrettable.
"Hum, will Elysia join the fray as well? She's a Human Goddess too, right?" Sylvia mumbled under her breath, but Dylan could hear that while Doominick was too busy to double-check the spirit signals of his five underlings.
As soon as Sylvia wondered about her Goddess friend, a golden light shone brightly in the dark sky. A six-winged heavenly Goddess hovered above the two opposing God-level beings as if looking down on all of them.
Just because of that, Sylvia jumped happily to her father. "Father, that's Elysia, Ely, my Goddess friend. She came to join in the chaos, hehe... Let's greet her later."
Dylan just remained silent and looked at the scene with a complicated gaze.
If Elysia in question joined hands with the Goddess of Blessings, then the Evil God defeat was possible. With that said, there were two Goddesses on the side of the Human Race. Even though he wanted the Evil God to lose, it would be complicated if the Evil God did lose or even died. Because of that, he had a mixed feeling.
He just sighed when he saw the six-winged Goddess go to the Goddess of Blessings and face the Evil God as if they were on two opposite sides, one on two.
Dylan, Sylvia, Doominick, and the devil elites looked at the scene with different thoughts. Neither of them knew what the Evil God and the two Goddesses were talking about. Still, they could already make an assumption about the position of the newly arrived Goddess... Human Race's side.
Right when the Evil God attacked and was thrown down by the six-winged Goddess with ease, Dylan just smirked.
Even Evil God was brought down effortlessly by his daughter's Goddess friend. Indeed, he had to find a way for that six-winged Goddess wouldn't oppose the Devil Race. Even though his daughter's Goddess friend said that she was on the neutral side, that was still not a guarantee.
"Woah, I know my friend is strong, but this is really amazing. Oh, look! The Evil God was thrown again far into the air. His attack failed, hehe..." Sylvia muttered with sparkling eyes. She wanted to fly off and greet her first friend, but she knew it was still dangerous there. So, she could only wait for a while.
Dylan's mouth twitched to hear that. He glanced at his daughter strangely. Only this one girl was so enthusiastic without feeling tense or oppressed by the situation.
However, the sudden realization dawned on his face. His daughter and his daughter's Goddess friend... Maybe, Sylvia could be an excellent bridge to solve the problem in question.
He breathed a sigh of relief at the fact that he had gotten a pretty reliable solution.
Doominick frowned, but Dylan seemed to notice. "It's okay, that six-winged Goddess won't attack the Devil Race without a cause. She's neutral." Hearing that, Doominick just nodded in silence.
About 300 kilometers to the north of Dylan's investigative force, Elliott and his troops had just arrived in the vicinity.
"That huge ball of calamity energy is causing these dense dark clouds, huh. Wait, what's that light?" Raphael used his magic vision to see the several figures behind the energy ball in the distance.
Yet, he became pretty surprised to know the two opposing figures. "Holy! Is that the Goddess of Light who is being talked about lately? She is fighting the Evil God right now."
The Eastern Emperor's statement attracted the attention of others, including Elliott. They immediately tried to look at the distant sky, golden light shining there.
Sure enough, the six-winged Goddess was dealing with a black devil. They had no idea what was going on, but they knew the Evil God was the cause of all this.
"Our estimates missed the mark. It wasn't Devil Emperor or accursed monsters, but Evil God. Take a safe area. We will erect a barrier so that we won't be affected by the God class battle." Elliott turned and gave his orders.
All troops didn't need to ask or confirm anything, the order had come, and it had to be done. Elliott, Raphael, and the others went to flat ground and put up a barrier to cover their presence, including their auras and sounds.
"Emperor Elliott, what are your plans at this point? I'm sure there are one or two Devil Emperors and their armies around here as well with goals that may be similar to ours." Raphael narrowed his eyes to see the Goddess of Light and Evil God facing each other, but he couldn't hear anything from them.
"We will be here for a while to see the situation after this, and if possible, to help the Goddess of Light defeat the Evil God. Also, if the Devil Emperors interfere in their battle, so will we." Elliott stated it with a firm gaze and solemn expression.
At the same time, he took out a black wooden plank and broke it. It was a signal for the other Emperors to prepare for one of the worst-case scenarios.
The situation had become even worse than expected. Elliott and the others were still in the dark about what was happening, but Evil God's dark energy was dangerous. Not to mention on a scale of that size. Was the Evil God planning to destroy two continents if this continued?
"All right, I'll be at the forefront if that happens. Let's hope the worst doesn't happen. Celestial Goddess, eternal light in the darkness... Please guide us with your divine favor, o brightest light. May your illustrious kindness of holy light and blessings shine upon us." Raphael sent his prayers sincerely, but not to the Goddess of Blessings.
As soon as he said that, the Evil God flew towards the giant ball of energy. The energy fluctuations churned the instant after, followed by a much more violent unnatural phenomenon.
The sudden earthquake, thunderstorm, and hail occurred as if shaking the world because of something that was not supposed to happen.
"Behold my absolute power!"
The Evil God's oppressive shout rang out several hundred kilometers away like the ruler of calamity.
"Set up an additional protective barrier. We'll see how this will come out. The Goddess of Light is still there. She is preparing her move to face something from that Evil God." Raphael sent his orders swiftly to all. He also installed layered barriers for extra protection.
*Kaboom!*
Thunder rumbled fiercely, but it was nothing for the elites who were accustomed to the battlefield. Whether it was the investigative force of devils or humans, they installed additional protection to see the outcome of this battle of two divine existences.
Unfortunately, there was only one girl who panicked absurdly when the disaster occurred. The Devil Princess gripped her father like a koala against a tree trunk as if she was afraid of being thrown out by the terrible earthquake. They were pretty close to the epicenter of the disaster, after all.
Meanwhile, Elysia was already bracing herself with her moves. She completely ignored the cries from the cocoon floating beside her.
Using sacred vision, she inspected Xero's state and what had gone wrong. There was both worry and enthusiasm in her. She was worried that she would end up like Evil God when she used too much curse energy to level up. She was enthusiastic because it was still the curse energy to level up nonetheless.
'Ely, are you really going to do that? That's quite reckless, you know?' Elena became concerned about all of these things.
'En. Looks like I know the crux of this Evil God plan. He does not purify the curse energy... But only extracts it and releases some of the corruption energy portions to become the clouds. I don't know much about it, but I intend to help this insane and reckless Evil God by burning some curse energy while purifying some for us to level up. Sister Elena, what do you think?' Elysia observed the situation and conditions and also her magic. The golden light shone brightly from her as if illuminating the world with her eternal light.
'You're just as reckless! But, alright... According to his intentions, we need this Evil God power to fight against accursed monsters in the future. But please stay alert for attacks and the unexpected!' Elena couldn't help but talk and suggest. So, she hoped for the best way out of the Elysia decision.
'En, I will.' After saying that, Elysia flew closer towards the Evil God. He was fighting against the invasion and corruption of curse energy.
"Aaah! Elena, you are crazy and stupid! Ely, Ely, help me... Your m- Hmpf!" Nell screamed, but that was her last word before Elysia covered Nell's mouth with another magic silk bandage.
Elysia set up a gigantic spherical barrier around the Evil God to block the chaotic energy. Then, put up several other barriers in layers for the unexpected.
After that, she flew closer to the Evil God, who was screaming in pain. She still saw clarity and awareness in his blood-red eyes.
If she looked closely, this black devil's body became somewhat similar to that of an accursed monster, although only in the gray tattoos all over his body. The rest, Xero, was still the Evil God. What was different was just the hair and horns that were longer than before.
"Argh... Ar- Are you, are you going to kill me?" Xero gritted his teeth and spoke with difficulty. He was on the brink of his consciousness.
