“Ding!”
Once again, barely managing to block the holy spear’s blade with his magic sword, Silvester was forced back by the immense force. Panting, he looked at the now dull and chipped weapon in his hand, seemingly unable to accept it.
He raised his head and almost through gritted teeth, glared at the six-winged girl, whose white robe remained clean and pristine, exuding a holy aura, and the giant holy spirit floating behind her.

“Who exactly are you? The intel never mentioned such a hidden powerhouse in the Ten Thousand Demons Mountains or the Illusionary Realm! Weren’t all the gods supposed to have disappeared or left this world?”
Casually twirling the long priest’s staff in her hand, Violet, the one responsible for the bumps on the demon’s head, temporarily put down her weapon and nonchalantly replied.
“That just means your intel is outdated. Besides, what makes you think I come from the Ten Thousand Demons Mountains or the Illusionary Realm? I mean, is there any possibility that I’m just a passing, justice-loving, and enthusiastic priest?”
“Enthusiastic... priest? I understand... I understand! You’re his companion, aren’t you? Cheese Mochi, I remember that name! Did he send you to deal with me? Coward Minchen! Even now, he still doesn’t dare to face us personally? Coward! Damn coward!! Heartless and ungrateful traitor!!!”
Seeing Silvester, though not seriously injured, surging with demonic power and enraged, the priestess couldn’t help but tilt her head in confusion.
“What nonsense is that? Cheese Mochi... Wait, did you mention, Minchen? Are you a descendant of Minchen?”
Wow, what the heck, is this for real?!
No wonder, no wonder! No wonder Silvester had always given Violet a vague sense of familiarity. When looking closely, his facial features and the long gray hair were exactly the same as a certain Mr. “Gatekeeper!”
If Minchen and his isekai’s group arrived here over three hundred years ago, such a long time would have been enough for them to reproduce and pass on their legacy through several generations.
Minchen, with his striking appearance and strong abilities, undoubtedly had a charm that easily attracted women, much like the clichéd scenarios in some cheesy manga and novels where the hero has a harem. It wouldn’t be surprising if some sparks of life were ignited.
Tsk... why do I suddenly feel like I don’t want to interfere anymore?
“So, you went to great lengths to become stronger and gain the power of the demon god to oppose Minchen? Are you trying to prove something to him or take revenge? Did that guy do something to wrong his descendants?”
After a brief rest and with nearly infinite magic power granted by the demon god’s authority, Silvester, who had gradually recovered, raised his magic sword again. He threw the broken half of his staff into the surging sea of magic below. His eyes, partially hidden by a half-mask, flashed with madness.
“It doesn’t matter anymore. Whoever you are, you won’t stop me today. Didn’t he abandon his wife and daughter and guard this cursed place for three hundred years? Then I will destroy it! Make him regret, make him despair!”
“If you have the skill, take this!”
The vengeful figure floating in the air raised his magic sword, and the sea of magic power below boiled in response!
“Crack... crack, crack, crack, crack...”
In the sky, countless terrifying cracks reappeared, just like when Silvester had shattered the starry sky before. The already decayed and withered valley of magic power finally let out a groan under the unbearable strain.
And then,
“Boom!!!!!!!!”
This small space created by the demon god to carry the transfer of divinity completely collapsed under the same source of power.
A fiery red sky came into view. The reappearing boiling lava and burning earth all indicated to Violet that she had returned to the world known as the “Illusionary Realm.”
“All magic in the world, heed my command!!!”
The gray-black sea of magic stained the sky and earth. Under the call of the “Magic” authority, whether it was fire, water, wind, earth, or any other surging magic scattered across the world, these terrifying powers, hundreds of times denser than those in the real world, quickly converged from all directions. They condensed above Silvester, forming a terrifying shadow, tens of thousands of meters long, in a myriad of colors.
The lava roiled, even creating towering waves hundreds of meters high. The various levels of fire elementals around were directly shattered into pure elemental energy by the suction force and forcibly absorbed into the earth-shattering sword.
Only a few supreme beings could barely escape this range at the fastest speed.
Violet could even clearly see the upper-dimensional spirits, invisible to the naked eye, screaming in terror as they tried to flee, only to be crushed by the Demon God’s power, shattered, and absorbed as pure energy. Within a few seconds, an area of thousands of square kilometers became a lifeless dead zone.
All elements, all forms of magic in the air were forcefully fused into that colorful giant sword. Without a doubt, this would be a devastating blow.
Yet, despite this terrifying pressure, the priestess calmly observed, even having the leisure to mutter to herself.
“Strange... where did the God of Blazing Flames go?”
Their reappearance was obviously near the rift Violet had slashed open with the 【Blade of Hollow Mark】. With such a huge commotion, the fiery stone, who also possessed god-level strength and seemed to have a bad temper, should have jumped out by now. Could it be...
Sensing something, she looked up at the sky, glanced at the distant burning sky and rift, and slightly raised her eyebrows.
Never mind, let’s deal with the immediate trouble first.
“Go! Forbidden Divine Slaying Sword!!!”
The colossal sword, far more terrifying and grand than the combined power of the Twelve Guardians before, slashed down. At this moment, the priestess finally seemed to make a decision, raising her staff and acting swiftly.
“Overlimit · Composite Barrier · Holy Shield Wall.”
The shimmering lights in the sky transformed into a gigantic golden shield, no less grand than the sword before her. The layers of the shield intertwined before the girl, colliding head-on with the ultimate attack formed by countless mixed magical energies.
“Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!!!!!!”
One layer of the holy shield after another shattered under the terrifying sword, scattering into golden light. Meanwhile, the magical glow and aura emitted by the sword rapidly diminished.
This was a direct clash, with no tricks or fancy moves. On a god-level battlefield, testing the true power of both sides, only one victor could emerge.
Silvester’s eyes widened as he desperately wielded the magic sword, while Violet stood her ground. Her pristine six wings unfurled, emanating pure and holy light, continuously reinforcing the barrier in front of her.
“Bang! Bang—”
Another solid holy shield exploded before the giant sword, but this time, a sound of sorrowful breaking followed. The multicolored magic sword, its light dimmed to the limit from the prolonged clash, could no longer withstand the intact holy shield and shattered into a cascade of colorful light.
“Ugh!”
Silvester’s body shuddered as he coughed up blood, seemingly backfired by his own power. The intricately carved black magic sword in his hand also broke and crumbled, falling down in a radiant shower.
On the other side, the girl in the white robe stood surrounded by countless golden shields, each still glowing with layers of magical energy, constantly renewing at a rate that would drive her opponent to despair. Only when the giant sword vanished and silence returned did the shields finally stop appearing.
“Huh? Is it over?”
With a hint of caution, the unscathed girl with black hair slowly peeked her head out from behind the barrier.
