Volume 5, Chapter 101 – Confused Memories

—”Emmm, or maybe barbecue would be better??”—

A pleasant voice, yet speaking terrifyingly chilling words.

As these words reached his ears, Astral’s brow suddenly furrowed. He directly withdrew his attention from Ulutiel, quickly leaped up and flew into mid-air, creating distance from the source of the voice.

“Who?!”

Then, Astral warily turned his gaze toward that voice.

However,

When he clearly saw that figure’s face, Astral’s pupils suddenly contracted, and unease and fear immediately overflowed from his heterochromatic pupils.

“You?! You are!!”

At this moment,

At some unknown time,

An unusual girl had appeared near where Astral had been standing.

She stood quietly between light and shadow, her long hair interwoven with silver and ice-blue gently floating in the wind, as if woven from the moonlight and frost of polar night. Those silver pupils were hollow and waveless, yet constantly emanated an eerie light that sent chills down one’s spine. Her skin was as pale as condensed snow, almost completely bloodless; while the beauty mark below her left eye gave her a special enchanting beauty.

The girl appeared frail, her exposed shoulders lightly covered by silver threads, her skirts floating like ice mist, her toes not touching the ground yet creating ripples in the air. With each slight breath she took, the surrounding temperature plummeted several degrees, tiny ice crystals flickering in the air, even light freezing in that power.

The girl’s expression was calm to an almost eerie degree. The corners of her mouth curved slightly upward, but it wasn’t a smile—rather some emotionless arc.

Regarding such a smile.

Astral was all too familiar with it. When disaster struck back then, he had seen it more than once because of his teacher…

In this instant,

Astral’s mind even recalled that unforgettable scene from years past.

Countless sacred beasts and warriors lying dead on the ground, fortresses and cities filled with flames and smoke, while a girl radiating violent curse power aura floated in the sky above, watching it all with a false smile…

“Ailiss??”

The moment he instinctively spoke this name, Astral’s heart almost stopped beating, cold sweat slowly flowing down his forehead.

After reaching Divine Graced Realm, Astral didn’t believe there was anything in this world that could make him afraid. But upon seeing that face, as psychological shadows were drawn out, Astral still instinctively began trembling.

However,

After a brief moment of bewilderment,

Reаԁ оո KαtRеαⅾіոgCαfе

Astral hurriedly shook his head frantically, even throwing a fierce punch at his own face.

No,

Impossible.

That guy is already dead.

The Lord traded his life for hers.

How could she still be here?!

Illusion!! It must be an illusion!!

As it turned out,

Astral’s judgment might not have been wrong. After giving himself two sobering punches, when he looked at that girl again, her appearance had undergone earth-shaking changes.

It wasn’t the one from his memories, but an equally beautiful elf girl with a completely different aura.

“Bai Lianyue?”

Looking at that elf girl whose emerald long hair was flowing, Astral murmured softly.

His entire being breathed a sigh of relief.

Hehe,

Just as I thought,

How could Ailiss still be alive?

But honestly,

Strange…

Why in that moment just now?

Did I mistake her for that guy?

As expected,

Acting without properly consolidating my realm caused some problems with my mental state.

To actually make such a mistake…

It seems I need to end all this quickly.

However…

Staring intently at the elf girl who had suddenly appeared nearby, Astral’s eyes rarely showed a trace of gravity.

With the power he currently possessed, dealing with the Celestial Blight alone was still acceptable.

But if the Celestial Blight and Terran Malevolence joined forces, he would find it difficult to cope.

Although Ulutiel was already covered in wounds and had almost no fighting strength after a series of attacks.

But as everyone knew, the Terran Malevolence was a monster who could manipulate life force.

If she bestowed life force upon Ulutiel, she could undoubtedly restore the Celestial Blight to most of her combat power instantly.

At that time,

The situation would become extremely unfavorable for him.

At the same time,

As if also sensing Bai Lianyue’s aura, Ulutiel, lying on the ground, tremblingly raised her dragon head.

Bai Lianyue’s graceful figure was clearly reflected in her azure pupils.

“Big… Big Sister~”

A low voice quietly drifted from the giant dragon’s mouth.

Excited and joyful emotions were unmistakably displayed.

Hearing this, Astral’s expression became even more grave.

Rich spiritual power began secretly gathering in his palm.

Without doubt, Astral wanted to eliminate the Celestial Blight before the Terran Malevolence could give healing power to the Celestial Blight.

However,

Unexpectedly…

Before Astral could release his power and use a killing move,

A tremendously powerful ice-blue Abyss Hex Cannon suddenly released from Bai Lianyue’s fingertips!

Feeling the power fluctuation, Astral instinctively wanted to defend, then he awkwardly discovered…

This attack?

Reαⅾ on ΚаtReαⅾіnɡСаfe

Wasn’t aimed at him!

“Hm??”

In the next instant, under this Solrog True Ancestor’s confused gaze, the Abyss Hex Cannon containing vast energy directly bombarded Ulutiel.

—”Boom!!”—

Accompanied by earth-shaking thunder, Ulutiel’s massive dragon body was blasted to pieces. The remaining limbs flew toward the distance, falling into the sea.

“…Ah??”

After being stunned for several seconds, the bewildered Astral turned his confused gaze toward the nearby elf girl.

At this moment, the elf girl was shaking her hands with disgust, her beautiful face full of revulsion.

—”Ugh ugh ugh… disgusting… thing…”—

That’s right,

Blasting away Ulutiel was simply Bai Lianyue’s instinctive behavior at this moment…

Completely out of instinctive revulsion toward the Celestial Blight.

Regarding this,

Astral didn’t understand. But after thinking carefully, this True Ancestor figured it out.

“Disgusted by evil gods… even unwilling to cooperate with them… hehe, how boring.”

At a time like this,

She should first cooperate with the Celestial Blight to kill him.

Instead of impulsively attacking the Celestial Blight.

Hehe,

It seems Isabelle saying this guy’s mind wasn’t quite right wasn’t without reason.

“Since only you remain. I have nothing to hold back for.”

As these words left his mouth, Astral suddenly clenched his five fingers.

Spiritual power gathered, and the six light rings floating around him stacked again on Astral’s right fist.

In the next instant,

Rеαԁ οո ΚαtRеаԁingCаfе

Purple light flashed, and Astral directly flash-stepped in front of Bai Lianyue.

“Hm?”

Regarding this, the evil god miss only made a dazed questioning sound.

Before she could even finish making this sound, Astral’s fist fiercely penetrated through Bai Lianyue’s body.

—”So you’re the Terran Malevolence? Die.”—

At the same time,

In the seas far from Sacred Commandment Island,

On the seabed.

Ulutiel, who had been blasted away by Bai Lianyue’s Abyss Hex Cannon earlier, hadn’t died from it but had canceled her giant dragon form and sunk to the ocean floor.

Although still alive, Ulutiel’s current condition was obviously not good.

After being severely injured by Astral and finally taking a full hit from Bai Lianyue, Ulutiel’s body had become incomplete.

After returning to her white-haired girl form, she had lost both legs and her right hand, half her head was also bloodied and mangled, only able to use her remaining last eyeball to gaze at the sea surface.

But even so,

Ulutiel showed not a trace of anger, even raising the corners of her mouth in a joyful smile.

Her small face overflowed with a trace of flush.

Hehe,

Hehehe,

This feeling of being continuously loved~ is really wonderful~

Ah~, I want to enjoy it more~

Unfortunately,

Big Sister doesn’t seem willing to keep playing with me, what a pity…

Well, next, I’ll leave it to Big Sister.

—”That guy should be able to stimulate Big Sister a bit, hehe~”—
