The gods looked at this fellow countryman with rather complicated expressions. Although they felt disgusted by those who got in through connections, they had to admit that it was really great to get in through the back door!

Apat's departure also caused trouble for another goddess.

Alecto...

This goddess, who advocates "non-stop" conflict, has also lost her leader, and even the vice-leader's fate is unknown. Her clan's fighting strength is also very weak, but it is still stronger than the Apat clan, which was already wiped out by the Freya clan.

As the once strongest faction of the Dark Clan, even a weakened camel is bigger than a horse.

But without level 5, one ultimately lacks the confidence to speak in this dog-eat-dog world.

She spoke softly:

“Vina is also a valuable asset to the Alliance. Please send people to search for her on the ground. As for Tina… I can forgive and forget about the modifications made to Tina.”

Having lost her voice in the battle, this was all she could ask for.

however……

"I'm sorry, the fairy soldiers are still recuperating and cannot be deployed. According to intelligence, Vina's mental state is not right, and even if we rescue her, she will only be another body."

Valetta grinned maliciously: "I'm not going to die with that idiot."

Olivas agreed, "If she wanted to come back, she would have already. Now all we have to do is wait for the 'Beast of the End' to descend."

Alecto turned away in silence. She knew very well that these people were unreliable, and she had to find a way to help Vina herself.

……

The next day,

A secluded corner of the city wall.

Alecto opened the basement partition and stepped into the smoky, secret room.

At the bar, on the notice board, and on a few scattered tables, one or two mercenaries were having a drink.

This is an illegal trading venue provided by merchants from outside the city. It is a platform specifically responsible for posting assassination and bounty offers.

"I've heard that two highly skilled assassins have recently arrived here." Alecto picked up his glass of red wine and drank it.

"They are very expensive."

“I have plenty of money, provided they dare to make a move.” She pushed the bounty poster to the shop assistant.

"Freya Familia... Ganesha Familia? Sorry, our staff isn't that strong yet."

“I’ll add money. They can work on whatever they can handle, but I’m asking for cadres,” Alecto added.

"I don't care whether the target lives or dies, but at least the two clans must be preoccupied with other matters. Only then will I pay the remaining balance."

"Draw attention? No problem." The shopkeeper guessed the goddess's intention and revealed a shrewd smile.

They're just two level 4 temporary workers. As long as the commission arrives, it'll be in my best interest for those two guys who're always thinking about retiring to their old ways to die.

……

The next day, night fell.

Cassandra, having finished another day's work, walked nervously back to church, clutching a cardboard box in her arms, following timidly behind the chatting and laughing Lily.

Every night filled her with unease. The prophecy had no set timeframe, but judging from the details in her dreams, it was bound to happen soon. Coupled with the wanted poster she saw yesterday morning, each passing day made Cassandra's legs tremble uncontrollably.

"Um, Lily, how about we sleep at the tavern tonight too?" Cassandra suggested timidly.

"Huh? Why? I don't want to be ripped off by Mia's mother again!" Lily gritted her teeth, recalling that vicious face: "She charged us a month's wages for just one night!"

"But……"

"Is it that dream again? Sigh, I already said it's just a nightmare. Besides, Uncle Chardo has been watching over the church the whole time, how could anything happen?"

"Ah ah ah..."

In front of the church.

The broken doll sat on the windowsill, withered branches crumbled and fell, and gusts of cold wind blew up the long hair that covered Cassandra's forehead.

The building's shadow gradually lengthened...

A series of eerie humming sounds echoed through the quiet alleyway.

"Ding-dong~ Hide and seek, da da da, I'm here to find you, sister~ come play~~. Shh, I can hear your rapid breathing... Hehehe."

A grinning head suddenly fell from the mottled wall...

"Found you! Onesama~"

Chapter 126 Don't Bully a Kitten

"It's my sister's scent! I've finally found you! Sister, come play with Vina!" The black figure's head fell, bending at a 90-degree angle. The next instant, before Lily and the others could react, it vanished.

"!"

thump—

The metal staff slammed down on the spot where Lily had been standing, shattering the floor tiles and leaving a 10cm deep crater.

Cassandra pushed Lily aside at the last second and shouted, "Run!"

“You…” Vina lowered her head, pulled out her long cane from the paving stones, and roared, “You, don’t you want me to see my sister again?”

Devour, Gate of Beginnings. Despair will replace all hope!

Diaval Otua

The staff was raised high, and a dark magic circle woven from intricate magical energy appeared in the void.

The black fireball transformed into countless meteorites that fell indiscriminately around Vina.

Boom boom boom boom boom——

"Hehehe~~, sister, come out quickly, or you'll break your toys~~"

Amidst the billowing smoke of the ruins, Vina raised her arms high, her smile freezing on her face for a moment.

Amidst the flames, a curtain of azure water unfolded, horizontally intercepting the heretical flames that were attempting to invade the Holy Maiden's territory.

"what?"

Beneath the water curtain, blue hair flutters... Marie spreads her arms, her magnificent carved necklace radiating light.

"Fairies?" Vina's face contorted with rage as she brandished her staff and roared, "Even you dare to stop me?!"

The number of black fireballs doubled, and scorching heat waves evaporated the water curtain, with hot steam spreading all around.

"Marie-chan, I'm here to help you!" Cassandra opened the cardboard box. According to the prophecy, she had brought enough fire fairy protective cloths in advance. The black cloaks covered everyone, blocking the heat.

"One by one...one by one!"

The magic ended, and Vina clenched her fists, laughing and crying at the same time: "Hide and seek is over! Now it's time for Eagle Catches Chicks!"

Four crimson magic circles once again enveloped the small church...

[Open, Fifth Garden! Resound, Ninth Song...]

"How...how could I let you hurt my family, meow!"

The woven black magic circle collapsed in an instant, and Anya pounced on Vina with her bare hands and feet, binding Vina's chest with her arms and legs, and biting down on her throat with her fangs.

Having just been expelled from the team by Freya, Anya was still full of resentment.

Why should Anya be expelled?

Because I'm too weak, because I might die? What's so scary about death? Compared to the pain of losing family, it's just the possibility of dying!

The magic was disrupted, and Vina's churning spirit exploded.

[Magic Accidentally Exploded]

The self-destruction triggered by the magic outburst exploded in Vina's chest, and Anya and the elf were sent flying backward in opposite directions, covered in blood, and fell to the ground.

“Lady Anya!” Lily’s eyes widened.

Marie stumbled forward, bit her finger, drew blood, and fed it to Anya.

On the other side, Vina, who had coughed up a mouthful of blood, slowly stood up. With her specializations in "magic" and "endurance", she could not possibly be killed by such an easy attack.

Even when severely injured, she could kill Lily and the others in an instant.

"Die!"

Abandoning spells that require a lot of time to chant, Vina chose to use the difference in level to completely crush the ants in front of her.

however……

"Chong-"

A blade of light flashed from inside the church, and the white-haired elf bathed in moonlight launched an attack. The unexpected kasaya slash caused a bloody rose to bloom on Vina's chest!

"elder sister?"

It wasn't that she couldn't avoid it, but rather that the attacker's identity completely shattered her already deranged mind.

"Are you going to abandon me too?!"

thump—

A merciless kick sent Tina, who had mustered the courage to launch a sneak attack, flying. The immense pain caused the young girl's pupils to contract, and she clutched her stomach, crying as she ran towards the church.

[The gray sky, the vanished homes, the black rain falling on the ruins] The second song begins.

Vina looked up at the sky, her madness turning into utter stillness. She sneered, "No, you're not my sister either. Sister, sister! Ah~~, you actually tried to fool me with this fake!"

"Disappear!!"

Diawar Otuva

Once again, the extremely short chant came to an end, a rain of black fireballs fell, followed by...

[The incineration of heresy, the paradise of sinful flames. All the world's errors and inversions are contained here. Tens of thousands of tombstones burning fiercely!]

Vina stretched out her hand, and a magic circle like the eye of a demon opened up, this time a flawless magical synergy!

Marie once again erected a water curtain, but could the weak fairy really defend against the ensuing wide-area annihilation magic?

at this time……
