The huge, ferocious, pitch-black monster before him matched Duke Wayne's understanding of the Wicked.
However, his rationality told him that it wasn't real.
The Gods had left.
The abyss had crumbled.
The sulfur river had dried up and turned into a bottomless land.
Everything pointed to the passing of the mythological era.
"Illusions?
"Remnants?"
Or …? "
Messy thoughts spun around in Duke Wayne's mind but it didn't slow down the old man who had multiple identities and was famous in the city.
He was as fast as lightning, a golden radiance was slashed out from his hand.
It was a golden light sword that was identical to the bishop.
It was bigger and more solid.
However, the golden radiance was mixed with white, gray and green spots, making the majestic golden light sword look a little weird but it didn't diminish its power.
Tsss!
The cardinal sins beast's head was chopped off just like that.
"I don't care if you are real or fake, I want you …"
Looking at the head that fell to the ground, Duke Wayne laughed coldly but before he could finish his words, he stopped abruptly because the head that fell to the ground was withering at an exponential speed visible to the naked eye and on the bald neck where the head fell off, a new head was forming.
Duke Wayne's heart skipped a beat.
If he had any doubts about whether the monster before him was a Wicked Demon or not, he didn't have to think anymore.
The monster was a Wicked Demon!
"Why is there still a Wicked Demon in this era?
Why does it still appear as a God's Child? "
The multitude of doubts caused Duke Wayne to retreat swiftly.
His identity as the former pope of the Church of Light allowed him to know how to deal with the monster before him but if he did so, his current condition would surely suffer the repulsion …
Roar!
A loud roar later, the cardinal sins beast threw itself at Duke Wayne in an even more ferocious manner. Duke Wayne didn't hesitate anymore.
"Although I will suffer some damage, it's better than dying here!"
He knew he had to change the environment before him, otherwise, the Wicked Demon wouldn't be able to defeat it with sufficient negative energy.
He could chop off one of its heads but it would grow another one at an even faster speed.
The scarier thing was, once it absorbed enough negative energy, it would give birth to an even scarier monster.
It would be an evil being comparable to the Devil Overlord or Grand Monarch.
Buzz!
A dazzling golden radiance exploded from the golden longsword.
The exploding golden light sword was like a small sun, burning the negative energy in the surroundings, and the black curtain above their heads quickly disappeared.
"Ahhhh!"
Two cries filled with pain rang out.
One came from the restrained 'Beast of Original Sins'.
The other one came from the first Duke Wayne himself.
In a sense, it was even more miserable than the Original Sin Beasts.
Along with the roar, the 'Beast of Cardinal Sins' only shrank in size, but the first generation Duke Wayne's entire body was scorched black, as if he had been burnt by fire or struck by lightning.
A burnt smell wafted in the air.
The pain made Duke Wayne's entire body tremble, and it became difficult for him to even draw his sword.
When the seven heads of the cardinal sins beast were chopped off, the first generation Duke Wayne was also covered in wounds. His charred body was covered in wounds and blood was flowing out. Especially his right hand that held the sword, along with his upper arm, it was swallowed by the head of Gluttony in a single bite.
"That damned Evil Devil!"
Duke Wayne snorted coldly.
But right after that, he knelt down on the ground in pain.
In the deepest part of his body, a despairing energy was spreading.
Plague!
"Ancilanco!"
The first generation Duke Wayne bellowed.
"Foolish mortals!"
Do you really think you can devour me that easily? "
Ancilanco who should have been devoured and vanished appeared again.
He was even more ferocious than before, fighting for the right to use the body before his eyes.
Soon, the outcome of the battle was decided.
Ancilanco had obtained the final victory.
It wasn't just because of a single ambush.
It was also because …
Ancilanco Codex!
Sister Moni who should have left suddenly appeared in the pit. Above her head was a heavy book the size of a tea table, flipping rapidly, the pages were rustling while Sister Moni stood there with a painful expression, unable to move.
"Get out!
"This body is mine!"
Ancilanco announced loudly.
"Aaaargh!"
Amidst the agonizing wails like a ghost, Duke Wayne's mirage was squeezed out of his body and turned into a gust of wind, vanishing into thin air.
Ancilanco laughed coldly when he saw the scene.
"Trying to fool me with such petty tricks?"
Ancilanco raised his hand as he spoke.
A grayish green energy blast was fired straight at the bishop's remains.
The head that was buried in a pile of gears, springs and scrap metal suddenly opened its eyes.
A quick roll allowed it to dodge the blast.
"Ancilanco!"
Duke Wayne who possessed his own disciple clenched his teeth and looked at the head.
The anger that he hadn't felt for a long time filled his mind.
Because he had actually been used.
Ancilanco Codex!
The book that he had read and studied before was also the source that made him decide to carry out the God's plan.
He knew the relationship between Sister Moni and Ancilanco Codex.
From a certain aspect, he was the one who made it happen.
For that plan.
It was also to restrict Sister Moni.
Compared to powerful strength, he was more worried that Sister Moni who had a long life would notice something. So he had to distract Sister Moni.
However, he didn't know Ancilanco who had lost his divine position, shattered his divinity and almost extinguished Divine Fire could still borrow the power of Ancilanco Codex.
Not only was it not recorded in Ancilanco Codex, even the Church of Light, Shadow and Dawn didn't have any related records.
All that was recorded was disdain towards Ancilanco and the fact that Ancilanco couldn't use Ancilanco Codex.
A lie!
A lie to break free from the seal and resurrect!
Then, those records …
Duke Wayne's face changed drastically, his eyes were like a hungry wolf or a venomous snake as he stared at Ancilanco.
On the other hand, the resurrected God raised his hand unhurriedly.
Pak!
The clear noise echoed in the deep pit.
The contract between Ancilanco Codex and Sister Moni was instantly shattered.
Ancilanco Codex flew back to the resurrected God like a swallow returning to its nest. Sister Moni spat out a mouthful of blood and slowly fell to the ground.
Though, she didn't fall to the ground.
Guardian Knight hugged Sister Moni.
Facing the sudden intruder, neither the resurrected God nor the first generation Duke Wayne had the time to care about him.
