A clear female voice suddenly sounded, and the New Moon Nobles in the entire dark room almost instantly changed their expressions.

Louis V instinctively wanted to stand up, but... when he tried to press the emergency mechanism on the table to activate the Mythical Magic Defense Spell that covered the New Moon Palace, he was horrified to find that he had lost control of his body.

That feeling... it was as if an invisible huge hand beyond resistance had restrained everything about him; his body, his magic power, his perception... everything he could use as a Transcendent was instantly sealed by some terrifying force.

Even though... Louis V's strength had long surpassed that of an ordinary Legendary!

As for the other nobles, they were even more embarrassed. They couldn't even control their facial expressions. After showing a horrified expression, they could no longer control their facial muscles, but could only stare wide-eyed in horror at the beautiful figure slowly entering the dark room...

The Prince of the Bloodline, the incarnation of a True God, the Dark Night God who destroyed the Sun God's Divine Body—Charlotte de Roman-Castell!

Looking at the indifferent silver-haired girl, a name that sent chills down the spine of all Sun believers simultaneously rose in the hearts of the New Moon Nobles...

The veins on Louis V's face bulged.

The Sun Emblem on his forehead flickered, and the entire person let out a difficult low growl, while at the same time, his fingers struggled to press on the magical mechanism on the table.

A dazzling brilliance exploded, and one after another of mysterious and complex Magic Arrays rose above the dark room and the entire New Moon Palace. The National Guardian Artifacts suppressed in various parts of the palace consecutively lit up, converging into an aura that made even Legendaries tremble in fear, wishing to flee immediately.

The terrifying power continuously accumulated, coalescing around the dark room, finally transforming into a golden Magic Sword, bursting with a terror far surpassing Legendary, and thrusting towards the silver-haired girl.

The Sword of God Slaying!

This was a Mythical Spell created by the New Moon Royal Family's Ancestor, modeled after the Power of God Slaying in the Sea King's Trident, capable of even killing deities. It was also a National Guardian Magic Technique once possessed by the Yonette Empire that unified the entire Mireya Continent!

This spell was very draining, requiring nearly a century's worth of magic power accumulation each time it was cast. Of course, its power was equally considerable.

Historically, this Magic Technique even once slew three Demigods!

And now, this National Guardian Spell, which the New Moon Kingdom had refrained from using in the two Star Moon Wars, was unhesitatingly employed by Louis V at this moment!

The golden sword peak converged, directly targeting Charlotte entering the dark room.

And immediately after, a pair of crimson-gold eyes looked over.

The girl did not resist, merely glanced lightly at the Magic Sword, and then... the Magic Sword, capable of annihilating a Demigod's body, melted away like snow under the sun.

"Too weak…"

Charlotte sighed softly, with a hint of disappointment in her tone.

She was genuinely disappointed.

She hadn't expected that the Mythical Spell, which was the National Guardian foundation of the New Moon Kingdom that once supposedly defeated the Falling Star Kingdom as predicted, would be so feeble.

No...

Actually, it wasn't that the inheritance of the New Moon Kingdom from the Yonette Empire was too weak.

It was that Charlotte was now too strong.

Seeing Charlotte unharmed, without even raising a hand to resist, Louis V's expression completely changed.

The horror in his eyes was replaced by deep-seated fear, as he struggled, mustering all his strength, to press down on another mechanism on the table with a hoarse roar:

"Protect the king—!"

A shout mixed with urgency and terror penetrated the dark room, spreading throughout the New Moon Palace, and even the entire Royal Capital.

However, no one responded to Louis XV's call.

Charlotte's aura spread, her vast Divine Mighty had long suppressed everything.

Within the palace, all the nobles fell to the ground with terror-stricken faces, unable to move under the immense pressure like a deep abyss.

Outside the palace, the High Tier Knights felt their legs heavy as mountains, their entire Transcendent power suppressed, as if they were paralyzed mortals.

Even the few legendary Knight Order Commanders could not break free from the ominous aura, their faces showing shock, feeling as if they had turned into infants.

Then, Charlotte moved.

She walked leisurely to Louis V's side, extending her long, fair arm, gently placing it on his shoulder:

"The New Moon Kingdom doesn't need a king who is a Sun believer..."

Louis V turned his eyes, looking at the girl in terror.

His lips moved slightly, wanting to say something, but found that he could no longer utter a sound.

Cracks spread from Louis V's body, quickly covering him completely.

Then, his tall figure shattered like a glass bottle, burned, and finally turned to ashes.

The current King of the New Moon Kingdom, seen by the nation as a savior monarch, heralded as the greatest monarch of the New Moon in a millennium, Louis V... had thus perished.

Watching the incomprehensibly powerful king turn to dust in an instant, the eyes of the other nobles in the dark room widened even further.

Shock, terror, pleading... various emotions flickered in their pupils.

But the next moment, they, like Louis V, had web-like cracks spreading across their bodies.

Then, they shattered, burning to ash.

At this moment, the unfinished words of the young girl finally fell:

"Also... we don't need so many Sun believers to hold the great noble positions of the Kingdom."

Annihilation!

From the moment Charlotte entered the secret chamber, only ten seconds had passed.

Within ten seconds, the New Moon King and the eight great nobles who formed the New Moon Kingdom Cabinet were all dead!

This is the power of a True God.

When a True God at their peak walks the world, no mortal can stop Them.

When a True God at their peak wants to do something, no mortal can obstruct Them!

A True God is power, a True God is the law, a True God is the true ruler of this world!

Especially... Charlotte is the only True God of the current age walking the world, and at the peak of Their power!

Charlotte stepped out of the secret chamber and then took a stride into the ballroom of the New Moon Palace.

In the ballroom, the nobles were already prostrated on the ground, unable to move.

The dance stopped, the music stopped, and the waiters and musicians were similarly prostrated, unable to move under the pressure.

They couldn't clearly see Charlotte's appearance, only feeling a holy figure bathed in golden-red radiance walking in, and that figure seemed to be everything in the world.

Charlotte crossed over everyone and walked directly to a nobleman who was slumped on a recliner at the back of the ballroom.

He was a somewhat thin middle-aged nobleman with a Ring Cross Holy Emblem on his chest and a look of bewilderment and terror.

Charlotte remembered him.

He was the Moon Guardian Duke John de Anlo, a collateral member of the New Moon Royal Family's Valva Family and the only great noble in the New Moon Cabinet who hadn't entered the New Moon Palace's secret chamber aside from Charlotte.

As for the reason, Charlotte had understood from the various pieces of information about the New Moon Kingdom transmitted into the Falling Star, ever since the Third Prince was executed, the Moon Guardian Duke became the de facto first heir of the New Moon Kingdom and the favorite among the noble circles of the New Moon Kingdom.

But this aroused the suspicion of the already highly suspicious Louis V.

Once created, conflict is hard to eliminate; once a crack appears, it only grows deeper over time.

Even though the Moon Guardian Duke was a loyal Royalist, under the King's suspicion, the two drifted apart and eventually became like strangers.

Finally, Louis V even elected a child under five years old from the collateral line as an adopted son and made him Crown Prince.

From then on, the two completely broke apart.

Of course, this was the official judgment of Falling Star.

As for Charlotte, she had her own opinion.

Charlotte had dealt with the Moon Guardian Duke many times and knew this royal collateral was not particularly concerned about the succession to the throne.

The real reason Louis V and this Royalist noble drifted apart was probably not due to succession rights, but because the Moon Guardian Duke was a devout Holy believer.

This was evident from the holy emblem on his chest, which he never took off.

Arriving in front of the Moon Guardian Duke, Charlotte withdrew the Divine Power from her visage and released the pressure restricting him.

Seeing Charlotte's appearance clearly, the Moon Guardian Duke's eyes widened immediately:

"Cha..."

His voice retreated as soon as it was uttered, quickly turning into terror and respect, and he bowed deeply:

"No, Honorable... Your Majesty..."

Charlotte glanced at him, her ethereal voice carrying an undeniable authority:

"John de Anlo... from today on, you are the new New Moon King."

"Ah? I...?"

The Moon Guardian Duke John de Anlo was instantly stupefied.

He raised his head in astonishment, but the girl's figure was already absent in front of him.

Crimson radiance lit up throughout the New Moon Palace, revealing numerous golden arrays.

The next moment, several priests and Holy Hall Knights emerged from the Teleportation Array.

They were fully armed and solemn, the leading Legendary Cardinal seriously unfurling the golden scroll in his hand, his voice imposing as he declared:

"Upon investigation, New Moon King Louis V and his followers... betrayed the Divine Church, willingly fell, and became lackeys of the Evil God... have now been executed!"

"According to Chapter five, Article seventeen of the Holy Code, the New Moon throne and succession rights of Louis de Valva and his direct bloodline are hereby revoked, and the throne is to be inherited by the collateral Holy believer of the Valva Family, John de Anlo, and his descendants!"

Having spoken, the Cardinal Priest tasked with delivering the Holy Edict looked at the Moon Guardian Duke with a complex expression, and along with the other clergy, smiled slightly and spoke gently:

"Lord John, please... assume the throne as soon as possible!"
