Chapter 1513: Chapter 944: The Working Demon God’s Springtime (Part 1)
Dawn Era 15th Year, Tamriel world.
Above the sky, tumultuous dark clouds and crackling lightning intertwined, a volcano flowing with fiery lava spewed thick smoke, while heavy volcanic ash fell leisurely from the sky.
Below the volcano, a dense army of Abyss Demons and Fallen Monsters gathered, grotesque and terrifying.
All around, fully armed Human Knights clutched their weapons, surrounding war beasts carrying Elves, their eyes fixed on the pulsating red heart at the center of the volcano, filled with hatred and determination.
Abyss Nest...
It is the root of world pollution and their final enemy.
Loud horns rang throughout the battlefield, Elf Dragon Knights unsheathed their longswords and commanded a full assault.
Resounding dragon roars and the angry growls of beasts filled the skies above the battlefield, as Elf Dragon Knights flew towards the volcano under giant floating airships, battling with the Winged Demons hovering above.
From the rear, hundreds of magic crystal cannons spewed fire, with dazzling elemental bullets raining down on the volcano, tearing the trapped demons and monsters into pieces.
The Knights roared, charging forward following the lead of the Elf Rangers towards the ruins of the volcano amidst the artillery fire!
Silver-armored Knights dispersed the darkness under the Holy Light, like a golden tsunami, engulfing the monsters with the fury of their destroyed homeland...
But just as the Knights were about to charge up the volcano, the earth shook violently, accompanied by an angry roar as a flame demon, towering hundreds of meters high, ignited in flames and pounded its chest, emerging from the crater.
A terrifying pressure swept the surroundings, the flame demon roared with a strong sulfuric scent, even the dark clouds in the sky changed color.
The Knights were shocked, and the Elves’ expressions changed:
"Damn! It’s Abyss Myth!"
"Quick, call for reinforcements!"
Soon, more than a dozen Elf Priests in white priest robes raised golden scepters, chanting holy spells.
Golden light gradually blossomed on the scepters, quickly forming a light beam, shooting straight into the sky.
The next moment, accompanied by ethereal hymns, a teleportation array with complex intricate golden runes appeared in the sky, an elderly arm reaching out.
Soon after, under the holy radiance, a Demigod Mage in a white robe stepped in.
With a swing of his magic wand, immense Divine Power pressed down on the flame demon, forming golden chains that composed a sacred cage, immediately subduing the once defiant flame demon...
On the ground, Human Knights shouted praises to the Goddess of life, their expressions excited and fervent, yet the Elves’ eyes showed excitement and curiosity:
"An unfamiliar Demigod?"
"Could it be another wild myth pledging allegiance to the Goddess?"
"Who cares! The demons are toasted, let’s hitch to the big leg and charge!"
"Exactly! Exactly! We can check after finishing this map, maybe there will even be information on the official site by then!"
"Charge! For the glory of the Goddess!"
"Victory belongs to the Goddess, victory belongs to our great Elf Chosen Ones!"
"Ura—!"
The Elves bellowed, joining with the human coalition of this world, charging towards the volcano again...
Tens of thousands of horses galloped, thousands of dragons roared.
In the overwhelming cheers, the pulsating Abyss Nest was bombarded into fragments by the Elves using Blast Magic.
A golden beam shot skyward, piercing through the clouds, long-lost sunlight shone down, casting a multicolored glow.
Like a loving mother smiling at her long-separated children.
Human warriors threw down their weapons, either kneeling down, reaching out to the warm sunlight, or embracing each other, shedding tears of exhilaration.
Fifteen years after the Year of Calamity, they finally saw the long-lost light again.
High above the sky, the old mage bathed in Holy Light looked at the jubilant scene on the ground, smiling faintly.
He picked up the struggling flame demon and disappeared from everyone’s sight.
"Your Majesty Goddess, this is the Abyss Myth hidden in the Tamriel world, please handle it."
In the celestial expanse, the old mage reappeared, holding a shrunken golden cage, respectfully bowing to Eve.
In the cage, the flame demon struggled like a frog set on fire.
"Well done, give it to Azazel to suppress in the Demon Maze."
Eve nodded lightly, speaking with satisfaction.
Then, looking at the other, she smiled and said:
"Daniel, how does the power of a Demigod feel?"
"Very strong!"
The old mage sighed.
Speaking, he expressed his sentiments:
"I once thought a Demigod was merely a step further from Legend in controlling laws, but upon truly reaching this step, I realized the gap between the two is vast."
"Your Majesty Goddess, thank you for giving me the opportunity to go further, I thought my life was ending, yet you gave me new possibilities..."
Eve smiled faintly:
"Daniel, being my Demigod isn’t necessarily a blessing; it’s a transaction, I give you the opportunity to advance, and you... swear allegiance to me."
"From the day the Empire was destroyed, I have observed you, principled, with boundaries, though possessing great strength, still treating the weak with kindness..."
"Humans remain the largest group in the Segis Universe; indeed, I need a corresponding human deity. You haven’t disappointed me, just ascending, yet able to seal Abyss Flame Demon."
"But... aren’t you worried one day I might walk the path opposing you like the human gods did?"
The old mage couldn’t help but ask.
"Oh? You think you can achieve that?"
Eve said, smiling.
The old mage paused slightly.
He looked up at the beautiful and sacred Goddess, feeling an intangible pressure from her, every thread of Holy Light surrounding Eve seemed as vast as the starry skies.
Even as a Demigod, standing before the Master of Dawn Era, his heart felt insignificant.
No...
After becoming a Demigod, He felt an even greater gap between himself and the other.
Reflecting on those bright leaves of the World Tree, each branch fused with the Plane World, a sense of understanding rose in Daniel’s heart...
Yes...
Eve Goddess has already truly become the World Tree.
Although not all Plane Worlds of the Segis Universe have been fully integrated, in terms of divinity, She already stands equal to the entire universe.
She is not merely a Divine anymore but a newly born universe!
A World Tree Universe composed of countless planes!
How can mere myth resist the universe one resides in?
However... it is merely a part of the operation of Cosmic Law.
Thinking of this, Daniel, knowing the truth of the Segis Universe, holds even more awe and admiration for the beautiful Goddess before him.
Being able to oppose the creator with mere myth’s dominion, perhaps... only a great existence like Eve can achieve this?
"Your Grace Eve, becoming your Demigod Envoy is my honor."
The old mage respectfully said.
"Do well."
Eve nodded, smiling.
And then, seemingly reminded of something, She added:
"By the way, during the years you were asleep, Theresa has emerged from the shadows, and now she has returned to Mania, where she has become a Magic Teacher at the Magic Academy and a House of Representatives Member of the Maniya Republic."
"If you wish, you can go back to see her."
The old mage was stunned for a moment, then deeply bowed to Eve, gratefully saying:
"Thank you for your care of her, great Goddess..."
The old mage left with the captured Abyss Myth, while Eve cast a deep gaze into the void.
With a soft chuckle, She said:
"Helair, peeping is not something a myth should do."
As the words fell, dark abyss power gathered in the void, and the figure of the First Demon God Helair slowly emerged.
He gazed complexly at Eve, and said in a deep voice:
"Your Grace Eve, you seem even stronger."
Eve casually smiled:
"Anyone who has fused with hundreds of planes would be so strong."
"Don’t rush, this is just the beginning. Fusing planes is a snowball-like process, it will become faster... But you, do you think throwing Abyss Nest and Evil Gods into those worlds can hinder my progress?"
Listening to Eve’s words, Helair remained silent.
For a moment, a strange quiet ensued between the two.
Moments later, Eve lightly sighed:
"Helair, surrender, the abyss has no chance of winning."
"The creator and Rigdar cannot stop my pace, as the Chosen Ones grow, you must have sensed it too, the scales of victory... are tipping towards me."
"You all are merely tools of the creator’s will, or is it that you willingly serve as the abyss’s lackeys?"
Upon hearing Eve’s words, Helair sneered:
"I didn’t expect the Lord of Dawn Era, the great World Tree Eve, also tempts others. What, don’t you hate us abyss clansmen the most? Or have you decided to abandon your so-called order and justice?"
Unperturbed by Helair’s sarcasm, Eve lightly sighed:
"Where there is light, there is darkness."
"When I stand in the light, I naturally fight against the dark, but when I become the world, then... the darkness should also be a part of me."
"The essence of order is balance, this I realized as I began fusing planes."
As she spoke, Eve smiled slightly:
"Moreover, too much complacency is not good; born of concern, dies in ease... all beings need an enemy to spur them, but this enemy must be within control..."
Helair snorted coldly:
"In the end, it’s just wanting us to become yet another tool; compared to being penned tools, why can’t we be the masters ourselves?"
"But... can you achieve that?"
Eve retorted.
Helair remained silent.
Moments later, he coldly laughed:
"At least... we are freer than Azazel."
"That’s because the creator has not awakened yet, if awakened then?"
Eve questioned.
Helair was speechless.
Eve sighed and said:
"Helair, like the first layer of hell, my roots can fuse with the Abyss Plane... If you wish to escape the abyss’s will’s control, come to me."
"Hmph, don’t dream, I don’t want to become your vassal like those gods who yielded!"
Helair mocked.
Eve chuckled:
"The paths you can choose are not many, I only gave the best suggestion."
With these words, She spoke no more and turned to leave.
Leaving only Demon God Helair standing with a gloomy gaze.
