Volume 5, Chapter 19 – Vessel?

A dense mass of scarlet eyes opened in the void, and beams filled with the power of the Abyss burst out from those eyes, then shot toward Tianyin.

At the same time, countless writhing tentacles, as if endless, were also flying in Tianyin’s direction.

However, in Tianyin’s eyes now that she had fully activated the power of the Seven Original Sins, these attacks that seemed to cover such a wide area were still not difficult to handle.

At the very least, with Tianyin’s speed and reaction in her Seven Original Sins mode, she would dodge the attacks she could evade, and for those she could not, Tianyin would rely on swinging the knight’s sword in her hand to block them.

So for a time, the Abyssal Lord’s all-encompassing attacks seemed completely unable to do anything to Tianyin.

『Phew, Samael… according to logic the Abyssal Lord should be on the same level as Heavenly Father… why does it feel like her combat strength is about the same as mine?』

Although the Abyssal Lord could not do anything to her for the moment, Tianyin did not get carried away. On the contrary, Tianyin vaguely felt that something was off.

「Mm… Xiaoyin, I noticed that too… and if we have to explain it… we can only put it down to the rejection of the Main Plane…」

As someone who understood much more than Tianyin, Samael answered while controlling Tianyin’s body to defend against the Abyssal Lord’s attacks.

『Rejection of the Main Plane?』

Tianyin did not understand.

「That’s right… the Main Plane, Xiaoyin, when it senses that a Throne-tier existence that does not belong to the Main Plane is a threat, it will begin to reject them… and Frost Dragon Ysera’s second personality, Xiaobingxue, came into being that way…」

『Wuu… so that’s how it is…』

Tianyin was also very clear on how the Xiaobingxue personality had appeared, so once Samael used that example to explain what the rejection of the Main Plane was, Tianyin instantly understood.

『But Samael… then what was with Heavenly Father and the Black Dragon King before that…?』

「About that… my guess is that the Black Dragon King’s Throne-tier power is purely physical strength, so the suppression he suffered was not that strong, and as for why Heavenly Father died… it was probably because he forcibly used his own power in the Main Plane and was bitten back by the Main Plane…」

Most of Samael’s words were only her own guesses, but Samael’s guesses were not far from how things really were.

“Hahahahahahahahahaha! What’s wrong, what’s wrong, do you only know how to defend, little brat of Dawn?”

As Tianyin focused on defending against the Abyssal Lord’s attacks, the mad girl’s face that had appeared in her field of vision twisted into an even crazier smile.

“Hahahahahahahahahaha, so the wielder of the power of Original Sin is actually a timid little brat like you, hahahahahahahahahaha, what a useless waste!”

The Abyssal Lord laughed wildly.

Under the Abyssal Lord’s mad laughter, countless beams and tentacles began to indiscriminately attack everything around them.

In an instant, the entire Holy Temple of Knights began to collapse under the Abyssal Lord’s tentacles and the beams filled with the power of the Abyss.

「Xiaoyin, if we only defend, we can keep the Abyssal Lord from hurting us, but if we let the Abyssal Lord keep going like this, it will only be a matter of time before the whole of Storm City is razed to the ground!」

『Then let’s take the initiative, Samael.』

To be honest, Tianyin did not have much of a connection with the people in Storm City, so if the Abyssal Lord wanted to destroy Storm City, it did not really have anything to do with Tianyin.

But Tianyin still, instinctively, wanted to stop the Abyssal Lord.

Not for any other reason, but for all those living, breathing NPCs in Storm City…

Call Tianyin soft-hearted, or say her sympathy was overflowing.

Even so, Tianyin still felt that since she had the ability to stop the Abyssal Lord, why should she just stand by and watch the common folk of Storm City die under the Abyssal Lord’s attacks?

So, once she noticed that the Abyssal Lord intended to destroy Storm City, Tianyin also made a decisive choice and proposed to Samael that they take the initiative to stop the Abyssal Lord.

「Mm, then we strike first!」

As soon as she finished speaking, Samael controlled Tianyin’s body and flew toward the Abyssal Lord.

“Hahahahahahahahahaha, little brat of Dawn, you only just remembered to fight me now? Hahahahahahahahahaha!”

The Abyssal Lord noticed Tianyin flying over immediately. When she saw that small figure flying straight toward her, the smile on the Abyssal Lord’s face grew even more delighted.

“Come, come, come, power of Original Sin, let me feel what the power of Original Sin really is! Hahahahahahahahahaha!”

“As you wish!”

The Abyssal Lord’s tentacles, as if endless, whipped toward Tianyin without pause, but before Tianyin’s fully unleashed power of Original Sin, those tentacles were all neatly severed one by one by the sword in Tianyin’s hand.

The solidified power of Original Sin surged madly toward the Abyssal Lord, and as she watched Tianyin’s figure get closer and closer, there was not the slightest hint of panic on the Abyssal Lord’s face.

“Hahahahahahahahahaha… good, good, that’s the kind of momentum I want to see!”

Far from panicking, the Abyssal Lord even laughed as she praised Tianyin’s choice to take the initiative and attack her.

『Samael, go all out.』

「Mm, since the Abyssal Lord isn’t defending, I have to seriously injure her with this strike!」

Boom—!

The blood-red light finally broke through the obstruction of layer after layer of tentacles, and at the same time, Tianyin’s petite figure appeared before the Abyssal Lord.

“Hahahahahahahahahaha, the power of Original Sin, I can feel it, and I can also be sure now! You are the vessel of the End that Father spoke of! Hahahahahahahahahaha!”

At this distance, so close at hand, not only did the Abyssal Lord not resist, she even showed an expression of frenzied fanaticism.

“What vessel of the End, I only know that I’m me!”

Tianyin did not care what the Abyssal Lord was talking about. Her scarlet eyes were wide open, and at the same time, the knight’s sword in her hand thrust into the Abyssal Lord’s chest, right where the heart should be.

Ssshhh—

Even with her body pierced through by the knight’s sword, the Abyssal Lord’s face was still that same expression of wild fanaticism.

“Hahahahahahahahahaha, vessel, vessel, I’ve finally found the vessel! Hahahahahahahahahaha, little brat of Dawn, next time, I’ll come in person to take away your power of Original Sin, so before that, don’t you dare die too easily, hahahahahahahahahaha—”

And as Tianyin heard the Abyssal Lord say those words, her expression also changed drastically.

Because the Abyssal Lord before her eyes actually turned into a mass of pitch-black smoke, then vanished in an instant…
