In a moment, the entire 'crimson palace', or rather, the bridge of Jade, was shaken by Theresa's fury and resonated with her surging soul.
The liquid metal cabin walls that looked like mirrors reflected the brilliant brilliance that originated from the depths of Theresa's soul. Billions of rainbow-like rays of light were gathered on the enormous cannon at Theresa's waist and darted at the devourer brutally in a destructive torrent.
The devourer was hit squarely by Theresa's barrage.
It was enveloped, drowned, and swallowed by Theresa's most intense feelings.
Even though the monster that had transcended time and space fed on the feelings of intelligent lives, it was still enough to explode when it was stuffed with a hundred times the amount of 'food' at once.
"No … It's impossible … How can you have such intense feelings? How can a human being have such feelings? Ah … Ahhhhhhhh!"
Like an octopus that had fallen into magma, the devourer waved its tentacles crazily and screamed miserably, struggling in vain.
"Don't you like to taste the feelings of human beings best? Aren't you best at playing with the noble souls of human beings?"
Theresa compressed all her self into the enormous cannon and unleashed it to her heart's content. "Then, I'll show you the real feelings and will of human beings. Go! Die! Go! "
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
With the giant cannon at Theresa's waist as the center, colorful tides spread out in all directions and drowned the entire bridge in an instant.
Not just all the members of the harem, even the dying Black Jack and all the devilized people and witches on the spot could not help but be moved by Theresa. They burst out the most intense feelings and the firmest determination together with her.
Whether they were good or bad, whether they were male or female, or whether they were 'human beings' or 'devils', it did not matter. The true meaning of 'human beings' was that they would never be manipulated, would never yield, and would never tolerate anything, not even the billions of stars, the deities, or the unpredictable fate, to decide their future!
During the continuous firing process, due to everyone's encouragement, countless parts were still attracted by Theresa. They were entangled by the silver threads and added to the giant cannon.
The enormous cannon continued upgrading, becoming thicker, bigger, and more magnificent.
It was like the main cannon of Jade had grown out of Theresa's waist by force.
It was a real Star Ocean Cannon.
Theresa was the real Star Ocean Cannon King.
Such powerful and continuous attacks finally caused the Devouring Beast to be unable to hold on any longer.
The monsters in pure energy form were like ice thrown into hot water. They kept melting and shrinking.
For the first time, it showed fear and despair. It even shrunk into the shape of a little worm and kowtowed to Theresa, begging for mercy.
"No! No! You don't understand the meaning of my transmigration! "
It shrieked in panic. "You know nothing about the cycle of time. You know nothing about the relationship between the past, the present, and the future. You know nothing about the relationship between the Observer and the Multiverse! Without our efforts, everything you are so proud of would have been gone. You can't kill me, you — "
It seemed to want to tell Theresa a great secret.
However, there was also some kind of law in the unseen world that stifled its voice.
As for the enraged Theresa, she simply couldn't be bothered to listen to the Devourer's nonsense. Instead, she vented to her heart's content and released herself, causing the Devourer to let out a series of miserable shrieks as it was reduced to ashes.
There was no telling how much time had passed.
It was only then that the burning bridge finally regained its former tranquility.
Theresa knelt on one knee and panted heavily.
The Star Ocean Cannon had been dismantled into tiny components again. They were absorbed by the liquid metal armor and combined into a brand-new form, which was folded behind her back.
It was like a silver-white armor with two pairs of folded wings, which added to her valiant charm.
The last ripple of the Devouring Beast also dissipated into the eternal void.
Everything was over.
After going through the soul-stirring and unbelievable process, everyone stood in silence like statues, unable to come back to themselves for a long time.
Theresa, however, was the first to run toward Black Jack.
"Black Jack …"
She held Black Jack in her arms, but she couldn't help but shed hot tears on his mangled body.
"You — cough, cough. You did it."
Black Jack opened his eyes with difficulty and looked at Theresa with a smile. He said weakly, "You actually destroyed the Devouring Beast."
"No, it wasn't me, it was you."
Theresa said seriously, "If you hadn't stepped forward and sacrificed yourself to stall the enemy, causing heavy damage to the Devouring Beast and creating the opportunity for me to condense the Star Ocean Cannon, we wouldn't have been able to destroy the Devouring Beast at all.
"So, I didn't lie to you just now. You are the key to this battle. You are the greatest hero!"
"A hero …"
Black Jack smiled in relief and murmured, "I, I never thought of being a hero. But, I, no matter how many mistakes I made, at least at the last moment, I was like a real man, right?"
"Of course."
Theresa said solemnly, "You are 100%, fully deserving of the title of a real man whose crotch is clinking!"
"Then … that's good …"
Black Jack's voice was blocked by the gushing blood.
It wasn't just his throat. All the holes on his body were spurting blood, which couldn't be stopped. No healing technique or blessing technique worked.
He was dying. After a moment of brilliance, the Fire of Soul gradually died out. It was an irreversible law of nature.
The only thing that Theresa could do was to cry and say, "Black Jack, where — where is your hometown? Who else is in your family? Do you have any unfulfilled wishes? I swear that I will definitely spread your heroic deeds back to your hometown and tell your family. No matter what wishes you have, I will help you fulfill them at the cost of my life!"
"Really, really, any wish?" Deep inside Black Jack's dim eyes, the last glimmer of light suddenly beamed out.
"Of course," Theresa said resolutely.
Theresa declared resolutely. "You sacrificed yourself to save everyone, including me. For that alone, I will fulfill whatever your wish is!"
"That — that's great. Then, I …"
Black Jack was suddenly refreshed. As if he had temporarily craned his neck out of the abyss of death, he looked at Theresa expectantly and said nervously and shyly, "Then, can you … kiss me?"
"… No," Theresa said.
Black Jack said, "Hey, didn't you say I can have any wish? Even if it's not my lips, can I kiss my forehead?"
"… No," Theresa said.
"You can't even do that? Then, just say 'I like you.' Even if it's just a lie. I don't mean any harm. I just, I just haven't tasted the feeling of being liked by a girl without the help of the Devourer. Ahem, I know I'm going to die soon. Just do me a favor and lie to me, okay?"
"… No, this is my principle. It's not your problem. I have my difficulties that I can't tell you. I'm sorry. You'd better not talk and disturb this touching atmosphere. Just quietly, uh, have a good rest, okay?"
"… Okay."
Black Jack said with disappointment.
"Forget it. Let me do it."
A voice came from behind Theresa.
It was Princess Summer.
Surrounded by angelic radiance, she took Black Jack from Theresa and knelt on the ground, hugging Black Jack tightly in her arms.
"I don't want to lie to you and say that I like you. In fact, all of us sisters hate you for lying to us."
Princess Summer gazed into Black Jack's eyes. "But we also know that you had no choice. And at the last moment, your performance was indeed very … manly.
"Black Jack? Thunder, to be honest, if you had behaved like this from the beginning and we had enough time to get along, maybe I really would have fallen in love with you. "
With that, Princess Summer closed her beautiful eyes. With a holy and solemn expression, she kissed Black Jack's forehead very seriously.
Black Jack trembled, and hot tears mixed with blood flowed down from the corners of his eyes.
At some point, the sisters in the harem had gathered around and looked at Black Jack with complicated expressions.
Princess Summer looked up and met her sisters' eyes. Instantly, she understood their intentions. She raised her arms slightly and handed Black Jack over.
Dragon Girl Hera stepped forward and carefully took Black Jack from Princess Summer's arms.
"You were once the most shameless coward, but at the last moment, you became the bravest hero. Your will is comparable to the most majestic dragon," Hera said in a low voice.
Dragon Lady Hera said in a low voice, "Just as a personal representative, I forgive you for everything you did to me."
She also leaned over and kissed Black Jack's forehead softly.
Then, it was Mercenary Captain Natasha's turn.
"You bastard, you tricked me so badly."
She hugged Black Jack somewhat savagely and bit his ear. "Be a good boy and wait for me in the flames of hell. One day, I'll go there to find you and take back everything you owe me!"
She also kissed Black Jack's forehead heavily.
Then, the sisters in the harem stepped forward one by one. Whether they forgave Black Jack or not, and whether they spoke with a calm expression or with gritted teeth, they all kissed Black Jack.
When the last sister's red lips left Black Jack's forehead, the humble yet tall, cowardly yet brave, wretched yet selfless man's bloody tears and smile had already frozen.
He was dead.
He didn't know when he died in the happiest way.
Theresa stayed at the periphery and watched everything in silence with mixed feelings.
Princess Summer stayed beside her, also in a daze. Especially when she found that Black Jack had quietly left, she couldn't help but shed sparkling tears.
"It can't be?"
Theresa couldn't help but say sourly, "Do you really have such deep feelings for him?"
"I don't know," Princess Summer said.
"I know Black Jack was controlled by the Devouring Beast, but after all, we had so many unforgettable nights. I think I'll never be able to forget him."
"You'll never be able to forget him?"
Theresa felt as if a pot of old vinegar had been poured into her lungs from her nose. It was so sour that she almost cried. "Then what am I? You won't forget me, right?"
"Don't be silly. How could I? Of course I'll never forget you!"
Princess Summer laughed and held Theresa's arm affectionately. She said sweetly, "You're my best little sister!"
"Little sister …"
Theresa was somewhat disappointed. No, very disappointed.
At this moment, she discovered that all the demons around her, no matter which tribe they belonged to, were kneeling on one knee and worshipping her while shouting some strange words.
"They, what are they doing?" Theresa was shocked.
"The Bloody Battle Demon World is a place where the strong preys on the weak and respects martial arts. Right now, the seven major tribes of the Demon World have suffered great losses in the internal war, and Great Monarch Kuba, who's known as the strongest, was blown up by the Devouring Beast. They're in a hopeless situation without a leader. But you miraculously reversed the situation at the edge of the abyss of despair and killed the Devouring Beast with one shot. You even obtained the inheritance of the Crimson Empress from ten thousand years ago."
Dragon Lady Hera walked forward and said, "It sounds like they all think you're the reincarnation of the Crimson Empress and want to worship you as the new master of the Bloody Battle Demon World!"
"What?"
Theresa was dumbfounded. She didn't expect that she would stumble into such a situation.
"But …"
Theresa listened and said in confusion, "What are they shouting? I don't understand. It's weird."
"According to the customs of the Demon World, before the empress ascends to the throne, she's known as the 'Saintess'. And your shot just now left a deep impression on them, so they gave you a unique and glorious title," Dragon Lady Hera said.
Hera said. "From this moment on, in the eyes of the billions of demons, you are the supreme, invincible, and representative of the pinnacle of the Bloody Battle Realm — the 'Giant Cannon Saintess'!"
