"Don't... don't be so cruel to yourself!"

"Just a gentle, beautiful end to your life, wouldn't that be better?"

Isabella's voice was soft, her words whispering into the ear of the demigod.

The next moment, the demigod seemed to have lost all rationality. With a crazed expression, he took a giant blade and cleaved himself in two, both halves then immediately attacking each other.

In the blink of an eye, two massive weapons collided violently. Every strike caused horrifying cracks to appear on their surfaces. However, despite all this, the demigod Faer didn't die instantly.

But because he didn't die right away, the other Fake Gods grew furious.

"Dammit, why won't you die?"

"If it weren't for you, Lady Isabella wouldn't be upset!"

"I'll destroy myself if I have to, but I'll drag you with me!"

"Die already! Die now!!"

...

Many Fake Gods, who had already been in the process of ending their own lives, stopped in their tracks upon seeing Faer still alive. Their eyes turned red, and their murderous intent exploded.

At that moment, they were like fanatical devotees who had abandoned everything. They charged at Faer without hesitation, disregarding their own safety.

But their actions were still a step too slow.

Faer had already chosen to break apart his own body!

"Great Isabella, dying for you is the greatest honor of my life."

"Please believe me, I will never... disappoint you!"

...

At this moment, Faer was completely captivated by Isabella. He chose to die, not just to release himself from pain, but to earn Isabella's favor.

Even if all he could hope for was to receive one glance from her, he would have no regrets in this life.

"Great Isabella, the only goddess in my heart, I have one request."

"Can you, please, just look at me? Just one glance is enough."

But Isabella's response was nothing more than an unchanging smile.

Her smile was serene, unwavering. No matter how desperate Faer's plea was, her expression never wavered.

The next moment, Faer's life force completely drained away.

Although Faer was a demigod from the ancient gods' lineage, a true Demigod Rank, even he was overwhelmed by Isabella's influence and ultimately offered his life in sacrifice.

After witnessing this, Kalbira understood how dire her situation had become.

She wanted to flee, but before she could act, Isabella appeared before her once again.

Since Daniel had not told Kartora about Isabella's existence, Kalbira had no idea who or what Isabella was.

In fact, Isabella had always been one of Daniel's trump cards, known only to the Luck Goddess, Luke.

Long before Daniel planned to fuse with the ancient god system's Time God Seat in Kartora, he had already started his preparations. Though he didn't know exactly how he would carry them out, he trusted his intuition, which was always guided by his exceptional luck. Even without fully understanding the plan, Daniel's instincts had never failed him.

Had he told Kartora about Isabella beforehand, Kalbira—who was essentially Kartora's puppet—would have had a way to prepare. Daniel had already anticipated this in the domain of Mental Deduction. Thus, he chose to keep Isabella as his secret weapon.

Meanwhile, Kalbira had already begun to flee.

In the blink of an eye, she had covered an enormous distance.

But no matter how far she ran, she could not escape Isabella's presence.

Isabella seemed like a ghost, not appearing anywhere near her, yet Kalbira felt as though she were everywhere.

...

"What are you afraid of?"

"Why won't you look at me? Is it because I'm not beautiful enough?"

"Look at me, I'm sure you can feel how beautiful and graceful I am."

"You will like me, won't you? Don't close your eyes; learn to follow your heart."

Kalbira tried desperately to block out the effects of Isabella's charm, but no matter how hard she tried, she could not resist the irresistible pull on her consciousness.

She knew that if this continued, she would die for sure.

Grinding her teeth, Kalbira activated the Time Prison.

But even though she had used one of her strongest techniques, Isabella's figure remained stationary, and her influence was still spreading relentlessly.

Kalbira thought she had used every possible means to defend herself, but even now, her mind was blank.

At this moment, Kalbira felt as though she had lost all her senses.

All that remained was the presence of one person: Isabella.

Suddenly, Kalbira wasn't sure if it was real or an illusion, but in her mind, Isabella spoke again.

"Kalbira, stop hiding. There is no meaning in it."

"Now, please look at me, will you?"

...

Kalbira continued to flee in desperation, but even then, she could still transmit a message to Daniel through her mind.

"Crossbridge, why didn't you tell me about Isabella's existence?"

As she fled, she sighed deeply.

One misstep, and everything she had worked for had crumbled. After Isabella appeared, the situation had completely reversed.

Now, Kalbira had lost all her belief power.

In the ancient god system, without belief power, one's strength would be greatly reduced.

Right now, Kalbira couldn't even match Kartora in terms of power.

Moreover, she now had to face an even more terrifying existence. Isabella wasn't just any demigod—she was far beyond the ordinary Demigod Rank.

"Crossbridge, you are indeed more powerful."

At this point, Kalbira knew there was no chance of turning the tide.

She stopped in her tracks, her gaze falling upon Isabella.

It turned out that Isabella's figure had always been nearby.

Since escape was no longer an option, she might as well take a good look at the beautiful face before her.

The moment she opened her eyes, Kalbira was completely mesmerized.

...

Meanwhile, Daniel's purification technique remained active.

In addition to his own range, he had also extended the effect to Kartora, who was standing beside him.

About ten minutes later, Daniel heard Isabella's voice in his ear.

"Everything is over now, little brother."

"I have done what I promised you!"

Daniel could sense that beside Isabella, Kartora's puppet-like figure had appeared.
