For the summoning is about to be completed, and the Mother Goddess is about to descend. And this world will become the ovaries of the Mother Goddess's offspring.
I'm really grateful to that treacherous priestess arranged by the good person; if she hadn't caused such a commotion, I probably would still be in the dark.
"Edward, I never expected you to be a member of the Mage Council. This time, you've proven your superior skill. However, you've already lost. The summoning is about to be completed, and this world is doomed."
Nancy abandoned her ladylike demeanor and let out a shrill voice.
"You seem to have forgotten that I designed this barrier."
At this moment, Edward stopped chatting and laughing with Lulutia and turned to say something.
"You mean there's still a problem with the barrier? Impossible, I had several Migos check it, and there's nothing wrong with the barrier."
“Migo? What is that? This barrier is a gift from our Lord!”
"What--!"
Nancy was overwhelmed with terror.
For so many years, since joining the church, she hadn't felt this fear.
Because she knew, because she knew so much,
That's why she was so terrified.
Seemingly sensing Nancy's fear, Edward chuckled coldly a few more times.
"This barrier, from the very beginning, only required two high priests to maintain it. During the maintenance of the barrier, the people maintaining it cannot move and can only have their magic power silently drained until their magic power is exhausted. But don't worry, if you die, the barrier will also disappear. So your lives are temporarily spared."
Then, facing Lulutia's elven face, she slowly spoke.
"Goodbye, teacher."
"You still haven't given up on that wish?"
After a moment of silence, Edward spoke.
His tone was full of determination—
And that steely resolve.
"...Yes. I will achieve it no matter what. And this time, I'm confident. Thank you for your guidance, Lulutia-sensei. Goodbye!"
After saying goodbye, Edward's projection gradually disappeared.
As Edward's projection gradually disappeared, Lulutia sighed softly.
"The materials used to create this barrier must be very rare, and you left the Mage Council more than a decade ago, cutting off your funding. Plus, you've been doing research for so many years. So, someone must have funded you with these materials."
Based on her experience and observation, she could tell that this barrier was unusual even without direct contact with it.
The gradually disappearing projection nodded, and then vanished completely.
"Chairwoman Lulutia, are you saying that a powerful force is funding these cultists?"
The question was asked by Kotori Itsuka.
She arrived as soon as the barrier was activated.
Given her strength and vision, she dared not touch the barrier, fearing that it might accidentally injure Itsuka Shido.
As for common sayings? Of course, there are concerns too.
Even worrying for a little while is still worrying.
Hmph, let him scare me last time.
(Tsk, this brother complex is hopeless.)
"You are... ah, that little commander from Ratatosk, right?"
"Emmmm...I'm clearly fourteen years old."
"Isn't fourteen years old a bit young? Before asking that, do you know what Edward's wish is?"
"Um (⊙o⊙)...I only know that he was a master alchemist who disappeared after leaving the Mage Council more than ten years ago, which caused quite a stir at the time."
"Yes, but I had expected him to leave back then, but I didn't expect it to be so soon."
"You expected this all along?"
Ignoring the delicate hands stroking her head, Kotori Itsuka stared curiously at Lulutia.
"Yes. Because his wish was a very ordinary wish, yet also a wish filled with taboos, and that was—"
"To resurrect one's loved ones."
The main character will appear in the next chapter.
Chapter Fifty-Two: I Must Live!
The fighting continues.
Even though Chang Yan's Annihilation Eyes could be said to be a one-hit kill, there were too many of them, and each of them had a different role, which made Chang Yan suffer a lot.
This is simply a super large guild raiding a boss.
Moreover, they are the kind of large guilds that have a complete understanding of the BOSS's characteristics and skills.
No one used magic to attack him; all the mages simply kept summoning monsters capable of ranged physical attacks, applying buffs, and rescuing the tank.
The meat shields used various weapons and shields to prevent contact with him.
Others nearby were attacking him with darts and arrows, making it impossible for him to defend himself.
Even if Chang Yan uses some injuries to gain an opportunity to grab, he will be forced back by attacks from the side.
It takes time to consume life.
There were originally two other people carrying firearms, but Chang Yan sacrificed his own two bloody wounds to save their lives.
Of course, there was no time to swallow it.
(Damn it, damn it, damn it, damn it, damn it! These bastards!)
He kept cursing in his heart, but it was just a way of venting.
Having narrowly dodged several arrows and splatters of acid, Chang Yan's breathing became rapid.
"Haa, haa, haa—"
(Damn it, my stamina is dwindling and my injuries are getting worse. At this rate, I'll be worn down and die sooner or later.)
(Am I really going to have to use that mask...?)
at this time--
An emergency has occurred.
They had an internal conflict.
Without any warning, some people suddenly attacked their teammates.
"The summoning ritual has been disrupted!"
"Kill these heretics! This world belongs to our Lord!"
"Kill them all! Now that our summoning circle has been destroyed, we absolutely cannot let their summoning be completed!"
"For my Lord!"
The group that was ambushed seemed to be on guard, and although they lost some men, they quickly began to fight back.
"I knew you bunch of idiots would cause trouble! Quickly kill them all and welcome the arrival of the Mother Goddess!"
"Send some people to protect the summoning circle! For the Mother Goddess!"
"For the Mother Goddess!" xN
Immediately, the two sides engaged in a fierce battle.
They had been cooperating very well before, almost forcing Chang Yan to reveal his last trump card, but now they're fighting to the death.
Is this a case of stealing equipment before even finishing the boss fight? Wow, that's shameless.
"Although I don't know what happened, it seems that my chance has come."
Although he learned a little about the truth from their insults and slogans, Chang Yan clearly didn't want to get involved in this mess.
Right now, all he wants is to vent his anger.
He thought, "Kill them all."
It's not about eating them all, it's about killing them all.
Because they ate too slowly.
Ah—it's show time!
Now, it's time for the performance.
You asked what we're here to perform?
Of course, it's about how to perform and kill off a bunch of cult members.
------
Countless human bodies were scattered all over this small passageway.
Yes, it was sprinkled.
A corpse with its head blown off.
A corpse torn in two
The corpse that was cut in half at the waist
A corpse with a large hole punched through its chest.
A corpse missing limbs.
Various corpses, in different shapes and sizes, were scattered on the floor.
Eyeballs, brain matter, blood, internal organs, bones
Like neglected garbage, it lay quietly in this filthy place.
The remaining eyeballs stared at the figure laughing wildly.
A terrified face stared at the incredibly dark figure.
The dried blood reflected the bloodthirsty, crazed figures.
These are the figures the deceased saw.
This is also the figure that Itsuka Shido and the others saw.
The overwhelming stench of blood completely overwhelmed the sense of smell.
Even with prior experience, their stomachs still felt churning.
"What a horrific scene this is. And the state of these corpses seems to be something the murderer deliberately created."
"But now, it seems only that guy is standing there, which means—"
"You killed these people, didn't you, Chang Yan!"
Legre took a step forward, pointed at the laughing figure, and shouted sharply.
Upon hearing Legre's question, Chang Yan stopped his terrifying laughter and slowly turned to face the crowd.
That once kind and handsome face has disappeared.
Now, all that remains is a blood-stained, crazed face.
"Ah, it's Legre. I remember you. Didn't I smash your head in?"
What hit them was an overwhelming murderous aura.
It enveloped them like an abyss of despair.
An overwhelming chill crept into their hearts.
My body is trembling.
