It was an eternally pitch-black sky. Even though there were no dark clouds, the sky was eternally shrouded in darkness. A faintly discernible golden tower in the sky was the only source of light. Unfortunately, that light was far too faint, and was only enough to guide the way.
The sky was black, and so was the ground. But the miraculous part was that anyone could see very far. Perhaps the moment that I entered this world, my physical eyes had already been replaced by my soul's eyes.
"Damn, you actually have such a trick up your sleeve? Others have an old grandpa with them, but you have an entire world and a Main God with you? "
Adam was quite astonished, but he seemed to be exclaiming in the wrong direction.
"… Don't mention it. I have more than that with me at all times. But the problem is that none of them are easy to deal with."
Everyone else's System was like a main character's life. They could use cheats to defeat bosses and level up faster, but my System? From day to night, she made it her mission to scam me, and 99% of those Fate Points became useless. In the end, I found out that it was just a scheme within another scheme. Not to mention the fact that my reputation was completely ruined by her in my duel with her.
Every time I met something good or something like a main character's life, 90% — no, based on my experience, 100% of the good stuff was a trap or a trap.
Bringing an old grandpa with you? I did have an old granny who was a super senior in terms of experience. She even gave me a lot of magical information. But, she betrayed me at a critical moment and almost killed me. Now, she had even become a boss that I needed to kill.
That's right, we were currently fighting a boss, a Main God level boss, Undead Emperor Conservation.
The bug-like region of the Hades was incredibly important to me. Not to mention, the mage floating city of Yongye City was also incredibly important to me. If Conservation here became my enemy, she would also cut off my connection with the Main Gods of the Hades. She would basically be grabbing me by the throat.
Since I had all the combat strength I needed to deal with, it was only natural that I would get rid of all my worries.
The battle had already begun, but we were still so relaxed. There was a reason why Adam, a professional cannon fodder, was still so relaxed. Today, neither of us were the main characters …
The sky of the Hades was still dark. However, the black land was now filled with a sea of ice and fire.
One side was filled with snowy mountains and snowstorms. Countless Undead and Evil Spirits wandered about. The Frost Dragon and Little Ice Dragon were the vanguard in the sky, and the endless icicles and snow were part of the snowstorm.
In the middle of all the ghosts and ice, there was a gigantic skeleton made of ice crystals. The skeleton's head was almost as high as the clouds. There was a snow-white gazebo protected by the skeleton's skeleton. The Undead Emperor, who was wearing extravagant formal attire, was in this gazebo.
On the other side was a sea of flames. On the riverbed made of lava, magma was spreading everywhere.
Countless fire elementals jumped around in the sea of lava. The moment they emerged, the sea of lava gave them magma armor and flame weapons. In the next instant, they laughed maniacally as they charged towards the ice creatures and the undead.
Among the low-level, mid-level, and high-level fire elementals, the most eye-catching ones were the three giant beasts.
The one in the lead was a gigantic beast from the Chaos Abyss that seemed to be made of flames. Its four hooves were tearing the ground apart, and the volcanoes on its gigantic body were erupting. Its bloodthirsty eyes were filled with hatred.
Its weapons were a fiery beheading sword and an Inferno Demon Whip. Every time it swung its Inferno Demon Whip, the ground would crack open, and even more magma and fire elemental creatures would gush out. Those who were familiar with the Chaos Abyss would recognize these two God Equipment and its master — the Lord of Putrefaction, Ladvioka.
The other gigantic beast was quite nostalgic. It was the Soul Devourer Kakajil, who had led his army to attack Sulfur Mountain City back in the day. He still carried his God Equipment oil lamp. However, what jumped out from the lamp were fire skeletons that were laughing maniacally as they self-destructed at their enemies.
The last one seemed rather unfamiliar. It was a gigantic tortoise lizard covered in flames. This tortoise lizard was twice the size of Ladvioka, and its gigantic body was the size of an entire volcano. Every single pillar on its body was as sturdy as a mountain. This tortoise lizard didn't advance. It simply lay on the ground, and its only gigantic eye was locked onto its enemies.
On top of this tortoise lizard's forehead was a single horn. This tortoise lizard's master was in this castle.
I didn't recognize this tortoise lizard, but his name was recorded in the legends — the Ancient Fire Elemental God Arolavis.
"She's now a Main God?"
Adam had a rather complex expression. I knew that he wasn't referring to Undead Emperor Conservation, as it was no secret that Conservation had broken through to become a Main God. He was referring to someone else, someone that we were quite familiar with.
"… That's hard to say. Even Main Gods don't have a fixed level of power. At any rate, anyone who can completely suppress a powerful God is already a Main God. But judging from the current situation, even if she's not a Main God yet, she's not far from it. Right, Marguerite, how does it feel to be surpassed by your disciple in every aspect? "
"It's quite complicated. Actually, I think that you're the one who finds this even more difficult to accept."
I silently nodded. The powerful existence on top of this gigantic beast was the half-demon that I used to think of as my daughter — Eliza.
"… Although her power as a Marauder seems rather ridiculous, what's even more ridiculous is probably her luck. Perhaps she'll be able to break Cavendish's record of being the youngest Main God to become a Main God."
A bleeding dragon head was currently tearing at a black beast. These two beasts furiously fought against each other until the very last moment, finally forming an Imprint of two beasts biting each other. This was Eliza's Soul Imprint Marauder.
This Soul Imprint was quite unique. It perfectly represented the very essence of the Chaos Faction — the strong preying on the weak, survival of the fittest. The strong would trample on the weak to evolve!
"As long as the elemental affinity is compatible, she'll be able to devour any power that she can bear. This is basically cheating. She's given a direct ticket to the peak right after entering Legend rank. The will of the Chaos Abyss … Cynthia truly cares for Eliza. Fortunately, Cynthia isn't here anymore. Otherwise, I really wouldn't be able to rest easy. "
Nine years ago, in order to obtain the power to control fate, Eliza devoured the hearts of the Fire Elemental God and Demon Count when she had just entered Legend rank. These demon hearts were the crystallization of their power. Eliza, who obtained the favor of the Chaos Abyss, relied on these two Chaos Flame Treasures to successfully advance to become a Demon Marquis, breaking the historical record for demon rank advancement.
Seven years ago, in the battle of the Hades, I worked so hard to kill a Main God level Demon Lord. My greatest spoil of war was still the Demon Heart of the strongest Inferno Demon, Ladvioka. In order to protect Eliza from Cavendish, I directly gave this heart to Eliza to devour.
"An ancient Fire Elemental God, a fire element Demon Count, and the strongest Inferno Demon Main God. It's as if fate is constantly urging her to reach the peak …"
I didn't know how strong Eliza was right now. I believed that the weak would be unable to measure the limits of the strong. Indeed, Eliza was already far stronger than I was.
All I knew was that her current power level had far surpassed that of ordinary Demon Lords and powerful Gods. And judging from how she was able to fight a Main God level Undead Emperor to a standstill, she wasn't too far away from becoming a Main God.
"I heard that she's still working hard on her cultivation in the Land of Spring, learning from the Titans and Hades Gods. I never expected that she'd already reached such a level. I no longer have anything to teach her. "
Marguerite felt both gratified and regretful. As Eliza's magic teacher, she had taught such a powerful disciple. However, Eliza hadn't relied on magic to reach her current level. Marguerite probably felt rather complex inside.
"… If only she had gotten serious earlier, she probably wouldn't have had to flee when she fought against Donatis."
However, I shook my head. I could more or less understand Eliza's decision. Even if we defeated and killed Donatis, apart from attracting even more dangerous gazes, there wouldn't be much to be gained.
Eliza's sudden increase in combat strength was completely unexpected. She was a trump card that very few people knew about.
In a critical battle, a trump card that was suddenly revealed could be used to obtain important combat results. It would be foolish to casually reveal information about a trump card just for a battle that wouldn't benefit us at all.
Not only was she trying to prove something to me, it was also because this was a sealed off world where information wouldn't be leaked.
"Finally, I'm able to stand by your side …"
I didn't know how to respond to Harloys' sudden words …
However, Harloys suddenly jumped onto my shoulder.
"Princess Peach, if she uses force, will you be able to resist?"
My complex emotions instantly became even more difficult to understand.
