Volume 2, Chapter 37 – Well, Finally, I Can Have a Proper Meal.

Translator Note

Chapter 36 got eaten by Kat, currently trying to retrieve it from his belly. Apologies for the inconvenience

—“Your Divine-Graced power, who gave it to you?”—

As these cold words left her mouth, the six-pointed star runes in the

phantom’s eyes suddenly exuded a terrifying aura of death, followed by a

suffocating curse power pressure.

Although the intensity of this curse power pressure was far less than

Gaia Lobir’s, it was more bone-chillingly cold, making it hard to

breathe.

The moment she felt this power, Hilgena painfully lowered her head, her

crystal-blue eyes filled with astonishment.

Indeed,

Previously, Hilgena knew nothing about the identity of the phantom

before her, but the moment she felt this pressure, this Divine-Graced

Maiden recognized who the other was. After all, she had felt this aura

in the Maretide Kingdom… more than once.

It was precisely that Vassal Tier monster that had been causing havoc in

their Maretide Kingdom,

“Black Witch?!”

Hilgena said tremblingly.

“You, you?! You’re actually from the witch lineage?!”

Faced with this question, the phantom clearly had no intention of

answering. Instead, while pinching Hilgena’s neck, she further imposed

curse power pressure on her.

“Now I’m the one asking questions\~, it’s not your turn to ask. Tell me

honestly, your power, who gave it to you? …Hmm??”

While questioning, the phantom’s eyebrow under the hood couldn’t help

but raise.

Afterward, the phantom somewhat helplessly glanced sideways, looking at

the Terran Malevolence lady who was restlessly fidgeting.

After consuming a large amount of energy to resist Reshir, and defeating

so many Xiweiva Covenant troops, Bai Lianyue was undoubtedly hungry

again.

After entering a state of hunger, her brain became muddled again, and

replenishing energy became the only thought in Miss Evil God’s mind.

Therefore,

When looking at Hilgena, Bai Lianyue had already involuntarily extended

her tongue to lick her lips.

She was craving…

Phantom: “…”

After sighing inwardly, the phantom reluctantly raised her hand and

chopped Bai Lianyue on the head, causing the latter to immediately

furrow her brow and look at her displeasedly.

“Please, big sis, wait a bit longer. We’ve finally successfully captured

a Divine-Graced Maiden; let me ask some questions first.”

“Oh.”

Although Miss Evil God was a bit unhappy, she still obediently nodded.

Seeing this, the phantom couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, and

turned her gaze back to the constantly struggling Hilgena.

“Then let’s continue our previous conversation\~”

To this,

Hilgena bit her lip and contemptuously spat at the phantom.

“Pfft! Stupid question! This is Augury Force, of course it was given to

me by the great Lord! It’s precisely for eliminating monsters like you!

Eliminating… heretics like you!”

Enduring the mental erosion brought by curse power, Hilgena coldly

shouted.

Of course,

Since the phantom was an energy projection, what Hilgena spat out

naturally couldn’t hit the target, but this didn’t prevent her from

expressing her attitude.

“Is that so…”

Looking at the disgust and determination in Hilgena’s eyes, the phantom

indifferently shook her head.

“Forget it, I knew it. A woman stupid enough to have ‘Lord’ constantly

on her lips couldn’t possibly understand anything.”

If she knew that ‘Lord’ was just a front for that group, this woman

probably wouldn’t have the courage to participate in this operation.

“What do you mean?”

“What I mean is none of your concern.”

Releasing the hand pinching Hilgena’s chin, the phantom slowly drifted

backward, clearly having lost interest in this Divine-Graced Maiden.

Since the information she wanted wasn’t obtained,

Then next, just proceed according to the original plan…

Therefore, after drifting away, the phantom turned her respectful gaze

toward the blue-haired girl who had been silent for a long time.

“Well then, dinner time, big sis.”

With the black phantom’s words, the already drooling Miss Bai Lian

eagerly raised her left hand.

Except for the three sisters Ailiya who were special beings, the Terran

Malevolence would not develop sympathy for other Divine-Graced Maidens.

Not to mention, inside Hilgena… there were still remnants of Star

Dancer’s soul fragments and primordial aura.

For such a synthesized Divine-Graced Maiden, Bai Lianyue would not show

mercy.

Collecting those scattered soul fragments had always been Bai Lianyue’s

greatest obsession.

The next moment,

Bai Lianyue’s left hand, already constructed of black energy, instantly

disintegrated, transforming into countless inky liquids.

The black liquid danced in the air, ferocious and terrifying, and the

horrifying curse power was released with the black liquid, directly

pressing down on Hilgena, making it difficult for her to breathe.

Gazing at the dancing liquid, Hilgena’s pupils contracted sharply, her

body instinctively retreating.

Although as a Divine-Graced Maiden, as a servant of the Lord, she did

not fear death,

When this desperate pressure came, she still instinctively felt a sense

of terror.

Seeing the black liquid surging toward her like a tide, guided by

survival instinct, Hilgena suddenly erupted with powerful strength. Amid

splattering blood, she directly broke free from the black thorns binding

her body.

“Ahhh——!”

Roaring, Hilgena quickly swung the giant sword in her hand, trying to

cut through those liquids, however… that blade that had accompanied

her for many years, the moment it touched the black liquid, suddenly

disintegrated, turning into countless metal fragments, and was greedily

devoured by the black liquid.

“No… impossible! That was a weapon blessed by the Lord, how could it?”

Hilgena’s voice carried a hint of panic, and she wanted to retreat.

However, the speed of the black liquid far exceeded her reaction,

instantly pouncing upon her, entangling her limbs like countless cold

snakes, firmly restraining her.

As the erosion of curse power spread, this Divine-Graced Maiden’s

struggle grew increasingly feeble. The black liquid gradually covered

her entire body, eventually completely engulfing her.

Hilgena’s vision within the liquid was devoured by darkness, leaving

only the low sound of liquid writhing in her ears. Not only was her

internal power rapidly devoured, but her breathing also became

difficult, and her consciousness gradually blurred, as if being dragged

into an endless abyss…

X, X脤A位…….

Before long,

There was no more movement within the surging black liquid.

After witnessing this cruel scene, the black phantom hovering in mid-air

merely shook her head contemptuously, with no emotional fluctuation in

her star-patterned eyes, as if long accustomed to such scenes.

“Big sis\~”

“Mmm?”

Hearing the phantom’s voice, Bai Lianyue, who was devouring energy,

slowly turned her head to look aside.

“After you devour her primordial core and all the Augury Force, leave

her body for me, don’t eat it all up, okay?”

“Leave it for… you?”

“Yes\~”

The phantom nodded, a meaningful gleam suddenly flashing in her

star-shaped eyes.

—“This Divine-Graced Maiden from the Maretide Kingdom is, after all,

the great hero who ‘killed the Terran Malevolence.’ Keeping her around

still has some use\~”—

Seemingly thinking of something interesting, the small mouth under the

phantom’s hood curved slightly upward.

“But, I’m not dead yet?”

Bai Lianyue said with an innocent and serious face.

Phantom:

“Nevermind, just don’t worry about all that and do as I say.”

“Oh\~”
