Chapter 380 The Final Gallop
The Divine Blade of Salvation, a divine weapon formed from the combined weapons wielded by the gods of heaven, possesses extraordinary power.

It is a sword made of the strongest steel, destined to slay the Demon King, and a terrifying divine weapon with the power to slaughter a god-slayer in a single strike.

Knowing that such a powerful divine artifact exists in the world, and that it is inextricably linked to the natural enemy of the god-slayer, and that he knows its exact location, how could Aize not have any designs on this divine sword?

It was one thing before, but now that the rebellious Sun Wukong is about to be born, the schemes of those old immortals living in the Netherworld will be revealed little by little. Aize knows that if he doesn't take action now, he may lose the initiative.

So, after dealing with the curse of the horse-riding spirit, Aize immediately went to the satellite orbit and obtained this world-saving divine sword.

However, this scene seemed to be too shocking for Guinevere.

"Where is my lord? Where is my lord?"

Guinevere completely lost her composure and started shouting loudly.

"The divine sword of salvation is right before my eyes, so why can't I sense the presence of my lord?"

Guinevere already had a terrible suspicion.

This was a prompting from her extraordinary intuition as a divine ancestor.

The moment she saw the God of Salvation's Blade, the Demon Queen's spiritual vision was triggered, allowing her to see many scenes.

There are images of it as a floating island sleeping in satellite orbit.

There was a scene where Azer arrived at the floating island and grasped its image.

Naturally, there is also the image of Azer pulling it out, letting its platinum-gold radiance illuminate the entire universe.

These scenes were all telling Guinevere one thing.

That is……

"The king you served has been dealt with by me."

Aize's blunt words caused Guinevere to shout out in a fit of rage.

"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"

"Our lord is a hero born in accordance with destiny, the strongest steel chosen by fate to slay the demon king!"

"Even in death, they will never vanish. As long as there are god-slayers on earth, no matter how many times, our lord will be resurrected!"

This is what makes the Last King truly terrifying.

Unlike other disobedient gods, even if the Last King dies in battle, his soul will not return to the divine realm or the realm of immortality.

Whether he falls into a deep sleep or dies on the spot, the hero will remain on the ground in the form of a divine sword until he awakens and is resurrected.

This is a characteristic bestowed upon the hero who slays the demon king by fate, but it is also a constraint.

Fate dictated that He must be the steel that slays the demon king, and He must continue to fulfill this mission until His own existence is completely worn away and vanishes into nothingness.

Therefore, the Last King will not truly die. Azer's claim that he resolved the matter is undoubtedly nonsense to Guinevere, who knows the reasons behind it.

But that's the truth.

"Any weapon that falls into my hands, even a divine sword formed from the combined weapons of the gods in the heavens, will be completely under my control."

The savior blade in Aize's hand emitted an even more dazzling white-gold light, illuminating the male body mountain.

"Under such circumstances, it would be incredibly easy for me to eliminate the existence of the final king within this divine blade."

The God of Salvation's Blade is also the half-body of the Last King.

In other words, the existence of the final king is actually within this divine sword.

After Aize recognized the God of Salvation as his own and made it his exclusive weapon, the existence of the Last King within the God of Salvation was directly obliterated by Aize.

With complete control over the weapons he comes into contact with, Azer could easily obliterate a will or an existence.

To prevent the Last King from being resurrected by fate, Azer made two preparations.

First is the Kusanagi Sword.

In the original work, Kusanagi Godou fused his "warrior" persona with the Ama no Kusanagi sword, giving it the power to sever the threads of fate.

Although it is only temporary, the threads of fate will soon wrap around the Last King again, turning him into a hero once more to fight against the Godslayer. However, if Aize were to fuse the power of the Eternal Spear with the Kusanagi Sword, he would have the ability to alter fate.

The Eternal Spear is itself a spear that manipulates destiny; the moment it is thrown, it is destined to "hit" and "win".

By using the power of the Kusanagi Sword to fuse with the Eternal Spear, Aize will gain a certain degree of power to alter fate. Even the fate of the Last King to slay the Demon King should be able to be successfully altered.

This was Aize's first step in making preparations.

The second is the forbidden weapon of the Holy Lance of Twilight—the [Lance for Slaying Gods and Demons].

The God-Slaying Spear possesses an extremely domineering power of divine destruction. Its ability is to unconditionally kill any being pierced by the Holy Spear and prevent them from being resurrected.

This is the strongest manifestation of the power of slaughter, a power akin to a rule, which is impossible for the ethereal fate to reverse.

With it, Azer is not afraid at all that he cannot kill the Last King.

However, neither of these two preparations ultimately came into use.

As it turns out, Azer's own authority is the most powerful and terrifying force, the ultimate authority that surpasses even the power of the gods.

When Azer grasped the God of Salvation's Blade and fully mastered it, the existence of the Last King within the blade became nothing more than a plaything in his hands. After choosing to annihilate the Last King, He vanished without a trace, beyond even the power of fate to bring Him back to life.

Clearly, neither the Last King nor the power of fate possesses the authority to defy Azer itself.

Therefore, after the divine blade fell into Azer's hands, the existence of the Last King completely disappeared.

The ultimate fate of this greatest boss in the world of Godslayer was such a hasty and simple end.

“Because I didn’t kill him in a fair fight, I couldn’t trigger the great spell of the Dark Christmas Festival and usurp the power of the Last King.” Aize smiled at Guinevere and said, “But with this divine sword as a trophy, isn’t that enough to make up for the loss?”

"Impossible...impossible..."

Guinevere seemed unwilling to accept this reality, shaking her head repeatedly like a willful child.

Perhaps due to the great shock, Guinevere dropped the arrowhead disc she had been holding to the ground.

"Buzz!"

In the distance, the Ring of Usurpation, which had been entangled with the power of the Arrowhead Disc and refused to relinquish the divine status of the disobedient Son Goku, immediately exerted its power, shattering the power of the Arrowhead Disc and completely devouring the power of the disobedient Son Goku.

The dark spell was immediately activated, launching a dark Christmas festival and performing a ritual that fed back the power of the disobedient Sun Wukong to Azer.

Aize, far away on Mount Man Body, felt a weight on his back as his cursed power rapidly increased, granting him new powers.

If Sun Wukong's divine status is not taken away by the Arrow Disc, this spoil of war will probably leave Azeroth.

Fortunately, the Ring of Usurpation, being Aze's exclusive weapon, grew stronger as Aze became stronger, far surpassing the one in Pandora's possession. This prevented Sun Wukong's divine status from being taken away by the Arrowhead Disc.

Otherwise, Azer will never obtain the power gained from this god-slaying.

However, now is not the time to examine the true nature of my new powers.

At least, Guinevere shouted out as soon as she came to her senses.

"Our Lord's divine sword still remains in this world. If that's the case, then there must be a way to bring it back!"

Indeed, although the Last King was obliterated, he, like those disobedient gods who were slain, simply returned to mythology and to the realm of the immortal.

If that's the case, then there must be a way to summon it down again and make it reappear on the earth.

Although summoning a specific disobedient god is extremely difficult, Guinevere is the progenitor of gods and the queen of demons. As long as the God of Salvation's sword serves as the medium, it is not impossible to find a way.

"Uncle! Please help Guinevere!"

The girl began to shout.

"Take back my lord's divine sword!"

As Guinevere uttered those words, a thick fog billowed out from behind her.

From the thick fog, a magnificent white horse slowly appeared, with a knight riding on its back.

A knight dressed in white armor, wearing a helmet that completely obscures his face, making it impossible for onlookers to see his features, and holding a lance with a reverse thorn.

The moment the knight appeared, Aize's body was instantly filled with power, and his fighting spirit surged forth without him even realizing it.

Without a doubt, that was a god.

However, it did not seem to be a god who did not obey.

"My beloved son, my chances of winning are not great."

The other party made such a calm statement as soon as they appeared.

"Although I am reluctant to admit it, the Demon King before me is special. In my current state, it will be difficult for me to fulfill your instructions."

Such a calm statement is nothing like that of a disobedient god ruled by madness.

Aize was aware of the other party's background.

"Lancelot, the former comrade-in-arms and subordinate of the Last King, the guardian of the witch, and the war god who protected the ancestral gods..."

This being was not a disobedient god, but rather appeared briefly on earth as a "shadow of a god." He fought alongside the Last King and, like Guinevere, chose to pledge allegiance to His being.

For many years, Lancelot has been Guinevere's protector, the god who supports her actions from behind the scenes.

"uncle!"

Guinevere sat down in front of Lancelot, nestled against him as if grasping at a last straw.

"This is our only hope of finding our Lord!"

Guinevere's voice was filled with anxiety and anticipation.

"Then let's fight!" Lancelot said decisively without hesitation, "Even in the final showdown, my spear will never dim!"

With that, Lancelot rode his white horse and flew into the air.

"Rumble--"

Lightning appeared in the sky.

Above Mount Nantai, lightning and thunder appeared without any warning, their power terrifying.
