This was Violet’s first attempt to spread the representation of soul power, known as “SP,” over such a vast area.

With her as the center, the entire Omo Island was captured in her eyes in that instant.

The sea of souls roared and surged, an endless power surged out from her body. The girl not only didn’t feel overwhelmed, but instead, a joyful satisfaction and exhilaration welled up within her.

She saw everything, nothing could escape the intangible Soul Power (SP). The entire sky, every blade of grass, and all things became the eyes of the girl.

It was like a god looking down on all living beings.

If it were someone else, they might inevitably revel in the joy of this unlimited control and transcendence, developing an inherent arrogance from within. But Violet did not feel that way.

Clearly experiencing this feeling for the first time, after the initial excitement, there were not many ripples in the girl’s heart. It seemed like this was just a matter of course, a familiar sensation. She should be like this, it should be like this.

Instead, she became calm.

For a moment, her perspective seemed to rise into the boundless void. She saw the rotating stars and the sun and moon. Six-sided celestial bodies surrounded her palm, but before the girl could examine them closely, the illusory scene shattered in an instant. The priestess’s view returned to her surroundings.

“............”

Slowly opening her closed eyes, before Violet could clear her thoughts, she was somewhat surprised to find that the people who had been gathered around her inexplicably dispersed, keeping some distance from her. Only the little dragon girl remained standing behind her.

Felina walked forward with a strange expression.

“.....Miss Violet, what were you just doing?”

“?”

The black-haired girl tilted her head casually.

“Just using my method to investigate the surrounding situation. What happened? You all look a bit strange.”

Violet knew that due to the level difference, when she expanded her mental network, the creatures within the coverage area would feel as if they were being observed by a higher existence.

Although she herself was not clear about the exact experience, based on the previous experience, as long as someone stood beside Violet, they shouldn’t be greatly affected.

That’s why she specifically had Felina call everyone back.

Because they were already within the priestess’s line of sight, it was a concept similar to the eye of a tornado, which would instead become a safe zone without disturbance.

Probably like that.

But judging by the expressions of Felina and the others now, there was obviously a slight deviation from what the priestess anticipated.

“Well... it’s hard to explain. Although I’m not sure what happened, there was a moment when a tremendous sense of fear and awe suddenly surged in my heart. It felt like standing next to Miss Violet, or even just gazing at you, was a great blasphemy. There was some indescribable force compelling me to step back.”

Feeling that her explanation might be too vague and general, Felina hesitated and added.

“It’s a bit like the feeling in the court when facing the king, but it’s not exactly the same... It’s hard to articulate. I’m sorry, I was a bit confused at that moment, but that’s roughly it.”

What a mess...

Even if Felina used such a metaphor, Violet couldn’t help but feel puzzled. Could it be some kind of information pollution again? But what just happened shouldn’t be considered high-level magic, it was just a simple use of SP.

“And now?”

“Now it’s gone. That feeling only appeared for a moment, Miss Violet...”

“Alright, let’s not dwell on that.”

The priestess raised her hand to interrupt the discussion about the incident. Perhaps Felina’s situation was related to the vague scene she had seen before, but in the current situation, which was completely unclear, talking about it further would be futile.

Looking back at the people who had gathered again, their expressions slightly strange, Violet raised her hand and pointed in a direction.

“This way, straight ahead. Over seventy percent of the winged forces are concentrated there, cooperating with the remaining residents on Omo Island to resist the Abyssal Beasts. The enemy is approximately two hundred in number. I’ll have Edwina, Leila, and Rene accompany you. It’s perfect for flanking the enemy from behind, catching them off guard.”

“Hmm? Is Miss Violet going to act alone?”

Without needing a prompt, Felina immediately sensed the undertone in the priestess’s words.

“Well...”

The black-haired girl smiled.

“Based on the information I just sensed, the strength of this batch of Abyssal Beasts is not as high as the first time I encountered them. The strength of Omo Island itself may not be a match, but with the help of those winged beings and your support, it should be enough, at least not to lose quickly.”

“The more troublesome aspect now is that Abyssal Worm. If my guess is correct, all the Abyssal Beasts on the island were born recently because of it. Sigrid is dealing with it, but the situation doesn’t look very optimistic.”

Of course, Violet would not tell Felina that her main interest lay in the creature capable of producing Abyssal Beasts, which is why she decided to leave the main force and investigate on her own.

After a brief consideration, Felina decisively nodded.

“Alright, let’s follow Miss Violet’s plan. Time is important, we should set out immediately.”

After a brief instruction, Leila, Rene, and Edwina, accompanied by Felina, followed the direction indicated by the priestess and left.

Violet wasn’t too concerned about the situation on their side. After all, they were three legends, along with a group of Earth and Sky level. As observed by the priestess earlier, most of the bizarre Abyssal Beasts on Omo Island were far less powerful than the beetle monsters they encountered at the southern border of the Nobos Iron-Blood Empire.

Perhaps it was due to differences in the consumed food reserves.

If one didn’t consider the rapid recovery ability, they were probably at the level of Ink-Steel. If the Abyssal Worm was the most powerful and unstoppable “Will,” then these Abyssal Beasts were more inclined to the roles of “Soldiers,” cleaning up the aftermath and assisting.

Of course, if they devoured too much, it could become unpredictable. Currently, abyssal creatures were the most troublesome in this regard.

Looking up at the sky above the dense forest and listening to the distant massive sounds, the black-haired girl’s lips curled into a pleased smile.

“Let’s go and see what that thing is.”

“Sure, Master.”

Without considering Felina and the others, Violet and the dragon girl ascended directly into the sky. The giant creature still wreaking havoc on the island immediately caught their eyes.

Compared to before, it seemed to have become more agitated, probably due to the relentless attacks from Sigrid and others.

No need for further communication. One master and one dragon stretch their wings, swiftly flying towards the destination.

Although it looks quite far, in this unobstructed airspace, it is only a short ten seconds for Violet’s speed.

Approaching the battlefield, the billowing smoke and dust suddenly rush towards them, and the air is mixed with the disgusting stench emanating from the abyssal worm.

Violet could feel a considerable force acting on this part of the world, oppressing the giant insect still writhing and entwining in the low sky, significantly reducing its speed and strength.

This is the rejection from the world that Violet once felt on that strange insect, and it is even more intense than that time.

... A legendary abyssal creature, perhaps.
