The Forbidden Magic Laws of a Fallen Princess

At the same time, the parallel world she created also began to tremble very slightly.

"As expected... even a god like me, in physical form, cannot withstand the destructive explosion of the Black Dragon God's desperate attack."

Lanis also stood up from her seat.

Although she really wanted to go forward, it was as if her feet were rooted to the spot, and she didn't move an inch.

"Sister Herilia...it's all my fault. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have died so easily..."

Honestly, my heart aches so much right now, it hurts so much, like it's being pierced by a thousand needles...

Then, hot tears streamed down my face. Ah, how long has it been since I last cried...

I think the last time I cried was when I saw Otto and Belissa during the trials of forming the Divine Bone in my head and the Eye of the Void God.

That time I was able to control my emotions, but this time, I really couldn't hold back.

"Wow..."

My tears finally started flowing uncontrollably; I really couldn't stop them no matter how hard I tried.

Honestly, I really love the goddess Herria, and now, we're already worlds apart, and I'll never see her again.

This is actually more reassuring than knowing that she is still alive, but that we can't see each other for the time being.

"Please forgive me, Ivy... I've been locked up here for too long, and I didn't ask for anything else. My last wish was simply for the three of us to sit down, have some tea, and chat. And now, my wish has been fulfilled, and I can leave in peace..."

At that moment, the goddess Herilia teleported directly to my side, placed her hands on my face, and apologized to me.

"I can't protect you anymore... I'm sorry, I'm so sorry..."

At this moment, her hands began to tremble, and then tears involuntarily streamed down her face from her eyes beneath her long eyelashes.

Actually, I don't want to lose anyone in this world, and I don't want anyone to leave me. I just want to live as an ordinary little princess, or even become a fallen princess like before. But I don't want to lose... because this feeling is like being torn apart, and it hurts so much.

"Alright, there really isn't enough time this time. I'm so glad you two were able to fulfill my last wish. Well then, bye-bye."

And so, the goddess Herria gently kissed my cheek. Then, countless orbs of light gradually appeared on her translucent body, flying freely into the sky. Soon, her slender figure disappeared before my eyes.

Chapter Seventeen: Distracted by the thought of never seeing the goddess Herilya again...

The instant the goddess Herilia disappeared, all the surrounding buildings began to crack and then collapse.

The once beautiful, birdcage-like afternoon tea pavilion was instantly reduced to ruins.

At this moment, the clear sky began to darken and countless cracks appeared, and the ground beneath our feet began to gradually disappear.

Indeed, all these beautiful scenes faded away little by little.

"Ivy, hurry up and leave, or you'll be stuck here..."

As she spoke, the goddess Lanis grabbed my arm and pulled hard.

But I stared blankly at everything around me...

Because I know that I will never see such a lovely goddess sister again.

"Ivy, Ivy, I never thought that you would be the one to kill such a lovely young lady. It's such a sin."

At this moment, I seem to hear the voice of my own heart.

Yes, my sins are so grave that I am unable to pull myself together now.

"It would be better if you died in her place. Then she could find a new child and give the goddess her blessing. Maybe this blessed child can successfully save the world."

At this moment, that voice from the depths of my heart reached my ears again, speaking to me.

But it's also true, why would it choose someone like me who likes to party and has a thing for pretty girls?

Besides, I was originally a boy... and I still retain all my previous memories.

If I could, I would rather sacrifice myself than let such a kind and beautiful goddess lose her life for me.

“Ivy…Ivy…”

At that moment, for some reason, I suddenly heard someone calling my name, and my body began to sway.

Then, I heard a crisp "snap" sound, and I was instantly brought back to "reality".

Yes, I am currently in a hollow parallel world, and this must be the place created by the goddess Lanis...

It seems I was pulled from the parallel world where the goddess Herria has collapsed and disappeared into her parallel world.

The "slap" I just heard wasn't any other action, but the sound of the goddess Lanis slapping me hard across the face with her hand...

"It hurts..."

Seriously, the pain felt incredibly real. It's true that even though it's a parallel world, it's actually the same as the real world. If I die in this parallel world, I'll never be able to return to my original body.

"You idiot, Ivy, pull yourself together!"

At this moment, the goddess Lanis, whose makeup was already ruined from crying, yelled at me impatiently and angrily.

"Sister Lanis... I'm sorry, it was my fault that Sister Herria died."

Honestly, I have no emotions left at this moment, because the death of the goddess Herria has really hit me hard.

"Honestly, you need to think about it. Who did Herilia die for? And now you're like this. Aren't you betraying her by giving her life to save you?"

"I……"

At that moment, my tears suddenly streamed down my face again for some reason.

Right now, I don't know what to do except cry.

Although the goddess Herilia did save me with her life, we will definitely face even more difficult battles ahead, and it's hard to say whether we will be able to survive them.

"Since that's the case, then don't let her down. Try your best to face it. Even if you fail, as long as you've done your best, neither Herilia nor I will blame you... So, cheer up now!"

It's clear that she, who is usually so composed, has now shed her pretense and become just like any other woman.

Herria was actually a very important figure to the goddess Lanis, the Great Nana.

Perhaps they had known each other for thousands of years, and now that they are completely separated, she may not be able to accept it.

As expected, as the goddess Lanis, she is even stronger than me.

"Can I really defeat the God of All Evil and save this world...?"

Looking at the empty ground, I couldn't help but sigh.

"Of course you can! Just believe in yourself. You've already taken a big step towards success. Just keep going, and you can definitely save this world. That way, Herria's spirit will finally rest in peace."

"I see……"

At that moment, I quickly wiped the tears from my face, but the tears just wouldn't stop flowing like a tap.

However, at that moment, I saw a bottle floating in the air, with the same halo that Goddess Herria had before she left.

Yes, it is exactly the same as I remember.

"That...that...could it be the soul of Sister Herilia...?"

I slowly raised my arm, then pointed to the bottle floating in the air and quickly asked.

"Ah...yes, actually, I planned to take Herria's soul to the Sanzu River (a legendary river that marks the boundary between the living and the dead. The river's flow varies in speed—slow, normal, and rapid—depending on the deceased's actions in life. Therefore, it is also called the 'Sanzu River')..."

"So there's a Sanzu River in this world too..."

Hearing this, I felt somewhat relieved.

Because I know that if I can bring the soul of the goddess Herilia to the Sanzu River, her chances of being reborn as a god will become extremely high.

I know perfectly well that she is such a kind-hearted, beautiful, and charming goddess.

"Uh...you actually know about the Sanzu River?"

Upon hearing this, the goddess Lanis was stunned... as if she were somewhat surprised.

"Well... it's just that people think it's something from legends, not something real."

Gradually, my tears finally stopped, because if I kept crying, I felt like I would cry my eyes out.

Since Goddess Lanis is still such a compassionate goddess, I feel at ease entrusting the soul of Goddess Herelia to her, allowing her to offer her final prayer before sending her to the River of Three Crossings for reincarnation.

Perhaps in her next life, she will be able to meet the goddess Lanis again.

Just as I calmed down, for some reason, the forbidden magical laws within me suddenly burst out of my body and began to rapidly turn the pages.

However, I am puzzled, because neither I nor the goddess Lanis summoned it... how did it appear out of thin air?

As I looked up, I was instantly stunned by the several rows of small print above.

Chapter Eighteen: Miracles Granted by Forbidden Magical Laws

Could it be that...?

At this moment, I really can't imagine that this so-called forbidden magic law would suddenly manifest an unrealistic magic for me.

"What's wrong, Ivy? You don't look too well."

At this moment, the goddess Lanis frowned and moved closer to me.

"Perhaps, I can resurrect my sister Herilia..."
