"Teacher, no, this is my fate..." the young lady's voice rang out.

"Then I will battle fate and win for you!"

Birds scattered in fright, beasts fled in panic, and even the most resilient plants withered in decay.

The arrival of the Evil God, even as just a shadow, brought an apocalyptic terror, making all living things acutely aware of life's fragility. At this moment, everyone understood that the world was no longer familiar to them.

The knights wore full-body armor, but it couldn't provide them the slightest sense of security. Gripping trembling longswords, faced with unprecedented terrifying sights, their faces were filled with fear, helplessness, and despair.

Even those who were once part of the Hero Squad looked at the distant sky where the Evil God's shadow appeared, an abomination resembling all the world's evils formed into a twisted, broken, and frantic monstrous worm...

King Kaiya extended his hand, intending to draw his sword, but he couldn't do it for his life. His hand trembled in fear, with instincts deep within warning him madly.

Run! Quickly, run!

This is only a shadow.

Only now did they realize that the hero sixteen years ago faced such a monster, one that seemed impossible to defeat.

Mythic Level? No, no, even just the residual wave of a shadow is far stronger than the Mythic Level they tried so hard to achieve!

Back then, how did the hero summon unparalleled strength to seal a monster like this? Heroic Lot, just how powerful was that man! What was he thinking when he faced such a monster alone?

How are they to repel such a monster? How should they resist?

"Run, quickly run!" A terrified knight desperately lashed his horse, but by now their horses were shaking severely, losing control, and unable to move an inch.

"I want you to run!" The knights were frantic, having consumed Secret Medicine, and under such stress, it began to run wild. Their bodies twisted and mutated uncontrollably, beginning to slaughter each other.

The situation spiraled out of control, the fear of the Demon King's arrival completely overshadowing their pursuit of glory and battle, some knights madly attacking their horses and comrades.

Terror spread completely.

...

"Xue Dili!" Uncle Brave was shocked, furious.

He didn't realize the effect of Curse Blood, thinking it was simply Treasure for blood manipulation. Only now did he understand Xue Dili's ultimate solution was transferring everything onto himself.

Curse Blood, this Treasure from the Great Sage, might not be the strongest, but it's certainly the most comprehensive, ideal for the former Great Sage and now Xue Dili.

Blood shaping, blood manipulation, genetic modification, and most importantly, the ability to transfer all suffering.

Fafnir's body was in a precarious balance; any advantage from the Evil God or Hero's power could cause her Death. Previously, the Evil God's power overwhelmed the Hero's, but if the Hero's strength could dominate the Evil God, it would also lead to her Death.

Thus, Xue Dili chose to fully unleash Curse Blood once more, transferring all suffering, along with the Evil God sealed deep in the brain, onto himself.

Become the container for this Evil God by himself!

"Uncle, don't worry. Though I'm not as good as your daughter, holding on for a while won't be a problem." Xue Dili's face distorted painfully under the Evil God's influence, but he still gave a thumbs up.

"Like you said, this is called self-restraint!"

"Rest assured, I still have a real trump card that hasn't been used yet, a cadre of genuine 'Godslayers.'" Xue Dili extended a thumbs-up.

"You... My strength for you, my power can suppress the Evil God..." Uncle Brave unsheathed his Beloved Holy Sword. He couldn't directly aid Xue Dili but he had this Holy Sword, the strongest sword inherited from his mentor.

However, the Holy Sword's response was feeble, nothing like the Love Unlimited's power in the past.

"How could this be... Why, why isn't the Holy Sword responding to me!" Uncle Brave was thoroughly panicked.

Ever since he took this sword, he could perfect its powers, but why, why at this critical juncture, he couldn't utilize it!

The power of love, come forth...

Uncle Brave was stunned, tears flowing, realizing why the sword's power was so weak now.

Because he saw the reality...

Curse Blood accomplished its task, leaving Fafnir's body to return to Xue Dili's.

"Sleep well, when you wake, the world will become a fairy tale Paradise, my Little Princess." Xue Dili set the Princess down, laying her on the desk to rest her head on a thick Ma Yuan book.

"Teacher..."

"Teacher is going to save the world now, Ghana!" Xue Dili took off his coat, covering him.

Donning unnecessary sunglasses, hands in pockets, he stepped into the vast rain, facing the armies.

The gaunt warhorse sagged its bony spine, coming beside Xue Dili, undeterred by his aura, but nudged against him.

"Take care of her, I know you can understand." Xue Dili laughed, each breath exhausted like the weary old horse.

The old horse didn't follow but watched Xue Dili's figure stretch westward step by step.

The silhouette was desolate, standing at the battlefield's forefront, armor like the ocean, blades and spears like forests.

Countless knights were obscured in the rain, a black cloud looming overhead. His solitary figure stood firm in the storm.

Xue Dili slightly lowered the sunglasses, gazing at the terrified knight army, at the Hero Squad members gritting their teeth ahead, each face familiar to Xue Dili.

During group photos with Uncle Brave, they smiled happily, but now, what were these twisted, grim expressions about? And those tears?

"I'll give you one minute, to kill me." Xue Dili kept hands in pockets, and the haunting pressure of the Evil God began manifesting.

"Don't worry, it won't take long, so come at me together."

In the rain, Xue Dili removed his sunglasses, brushing his forehead, pushing back his hair into a slicked-back style. He laughed wildly as the Evil God's power began consuming him, but it didn't matter.

Since he was already part Half Heroic Spirit anyway.

"Charge, exterminate the Demon King! For the knight's honor!" Kaiya roared, drawing his sword, leading the charge himself.

He knew they couldn't escape, impossible to flee, as exposing their backs would mean Death.

Defeating the Demon King, vanquishing the Otherworld Demon King, only then could they survive!

Though the Evil God was mighty, the Otherworld Demon King's essence was merely Quasi-Legendary Level, they had a chance. If they killed this Quasi-Legendary Otherworld being, then quickly reinforced the former hero's seal, they still had a shot!

They would win!
