He became the White-Haired Evil God after wearing the Seven Curses Rings.

As soon as she finished speaking, Hiti's deep blue eyes instantly turned pitch black.

At the same time, a terrifying aura suddenly rose from her body, causing the surrounding light to dim even further.

Seeing this scene from a distance, Keuler clutched his head in exasperation.

"This is bad. One knight carrying the End was already difficult enough, and now a witch has appeared. What are we going to do..."

Thanatos's expression was no better in the face of this situation.

Before the battle broke out, he spoke to the two people behind him.

"Let's abandon this operation for now. We'll deal with any issues after we leave here. If necessary, we'll also need to organize manpower to prevent the crisis here from escalating to the outside world."

Having said that, Thanatos's figure vanished from the spot in an instant.

Kroos followed closely behind, leaving only [Sea Salt Lemon] still confused about the current situation.

"Huh? What's going on? The situation doesn't look good at all!"

Although Hiti was also emitting black smoke in Kuku, she was still one of our people. We can't let the other side cut down their own teammates, can we?

Confused by this, [Sea Salt Lemon] apparently forgot that there was such a point of attention in Hiti's introduction.

Hitt will disregard everything that hinders his presence. Therefore, believers must ensure that the damage to the target is capped to avoid inflicting greater losses than originally intended.

"Bang----!!!"

The broadsword in Hitti's hand struck Esso in an instant.

Two similar but different dark forces collided, and the resulting shockwaves instantly blinded [Sea Salt Lemon].

[Death exemption failed!]

[You have been killed by the combined forces of "Heroic Spirit" Destruction Witch - Hiti and "Hungry Knight - Esso"!]

[Due to the influence of an unknown force, the death penalty has been increased by 15 times this time.]

Your current level is: 37

"..."

【Sea Salt Lemon】stared at the settlement screen with a sullen expression.

After an unknown amount of time, she gave a helpless laugh.

"Heh... I'll log off and catch up on some sleep first."

……

Meanwhile, on the other side...

"So let me tell you, those demon gods are not good people at all. It's just that the God of Fate is really outrageous, so he had no choice but to borrow the power of the demon gods."

"But the fact that they managed to escape from every aspect of this world, leaving not even a trace of the past, is quite something."

"Although traces of the Wheel of Fortune remain in this world, the most crucial concepts of hell and demons have been completely erased from this world."

"Besides people from outside this world like myself who still remember, I guess only fate, time, and the High Court still remember that such a group of beings once existed in this world."

Xie Ling became more and more enthusiastic as she spoke, focusing almost entirely on telling the story.

Seeing her like this, Xie Bai casually agreed.

"I see. That's quite an interesting story from Gu'oqi. It's just a pity that I'm afraid I won't have the chance to see what you've described."

As he spoke, Xie Bai combed out the last strand of Xie Ling's messy hair.

Looking at the other person's long, smooth blue hair, Xie Bai nodded in satisfaction.

"Hmm, this looks much better now. Just one last step..."

Xie Bai looked up at the top of the other person's head, staring intently at the knotted ahoge (cowlicks).

"Should I try to untie it... or just cut it off?"

Xie Bai fell into deep thought.

In her mind, these characters with ahoge (cowlicks) usually have one characteristic: the ahoge on their heads has the ability to regenerate.

Even if you cut it off directly, some mysterious, inexplicable force will cause the ahoge (cowlick) to grow back.

Considering that Xie Ling was no ordinary person, Xie Bai felt that she might possess this ability.

To test whether this conclusion was valid, Xie Bai secretly took a pair of scissors from the table next to him and slowly aimed them at the pair of tangled ahoge (cowlicks) on Xie Ling's head.

At this moment, Xie Ling was engrossed in telling the story and had no idea that Xie Bai had already raised a pair of scissors above her head.

Just as Xie Bai was about to cut with all his might, the pair of tufts of hair suddenly drooped down.

"Whoosh!"

"Snap!"

"Um?"

Xie Bai stared blankly at the pair of cowlicks, completely unable to believe that the other party had actually dodged his sneak attack.

"What the hell? This thing is still alive?"

A live ahoge (cowlick) that can automatically dodge?

This is even rarer than regenerable ahoge (cowlicks).

As expected, there's something to it about these characters with their signature ahoge (cowlicks).

Although somewhat surprised, Xie Bai quickly recovered.

Since this thing can dodge her attacks, she'll have to get serious.

With her absolute numerical advantage, she refused to believe she couldn't take down this thing.

Just as she was about to swing her sword again, a message suddenly came from the divine connection.

Xie Bai was suddenly taken aback.

The recipient of the message was none other than Thanatos, who had recently declined her offer of help.

This sudden contact, especially one seeking help, immediately made Xie Bai take it seriously.

If Thanatos, who was so stubborn just a while ago, could swallow his pride and ask for help, then this trouble is probably no small matter.

However, since the other party had asked her for help, she couldn't possibly refuse to respond.

"Okay, I'll be there soon."

As he spoke, Xie Bai turned to look at the pair of cowlicks.

Unexpectedly, the pair of ahoge (cowlicks) somehow untied themselves and returned to being a normal, upright pair of ahoge.

Meanwhile, Xie Ling, the owner of the ahoge (cowlick), was still engrossed in the story she was telling and completely oblivious to everything that had just happened.

"Xie Ling."

"Hmm? What's wrong?"

"I have to go back for something right now, and it will probably take a while. I'll come back to see you next time I have time."

"Oh? Is that so... Well, okay then."

Although Xie Bai's departure made her somewhat disappointed, she still opened a time portal for him.

Through this passage, Xie Bai can leave the Golden Timeline directly and freely choose his landing point outside.

Before leaving, Xie Bai turned back to look at Xie Ling, who was reluctant to part with her, and said somewhat speechlessly.

"Alright, it's not like I'm not coming back. Besides, you're not a child anymore, are you? What's with that look on your face..."

"Um... I, I finally found someone to confide in, you know I don't have many friends here, and I don't see anyone else usually..."

"Okay, I got it. Um... by the way, there's something I feel I need to remind you of."

"Hmm? What is it?"

"Remember to watch your posture; the black bow on your shirt is showing."

……
