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

Tian Shang Shan.

"Bang----!!!"

A loud bang erupted, and the entire majestic mountain shook violently.

At the highest mountaintop, Gabriel was battered and bruised, a far cry from his previous elegant demeanor.

"cough…"

He looked at Esso walking towards him, and a hint of anger finally appeared in his tone.

"You bastard, why do you insist on carrying out your damned Twilight? The True God has already dealt with it all. Who exactly is your Twilight targeting?!"

Faced with Gabriel's accusations, Esso smiled lightly.

"Your Excellency Seraphim, as I said, we are not targeting anyone. We just want to add a bit of excitement for our lord, since she likes it that way."

"Tsk..."

Gabriel lowered his gaze.

"As far as I know, my lord is not a madwoman; she simply doesn't like things that obviously harm others..."

Upon hearing this, Esso's smile suddenly faded slightly.

"Oh, really?"

"Your Excellency Seraphim, shouldn't you think carefully about whether it is you angels who have followed our Lord longer, or us knights who have followed our Lord longer?"

"You haven't even figured out this kind of question, so what makes you think you understand our Lord better than I do?"

Seeing Gabriel's rather disheveled appearance, Esso suddenly changed the subject.

"Oh, right, I remember there was an archangel with you just now, I think that little cherubim... Yuriel?"

"Thanatos, why don't you take some time to go and find them?"

Thanatos, who had remained silent until now, shook his head in response to his request.

"No, I said I wouldn't take sides."

Upon hearing this answer, Esso suddenly laughed.

"Neither favoring nor opposing sides?"

He looked at Gabriel, who was seriously injured, and spoke in a rather cold tone.

"Thanatos, this is why I don't like you very much. In an unequal oppression, any so-called bystander or inaction is actually a form of favoritism towards the bully."

"But I can understand. After all, you are the only knight in our group who has ever betrayed someone. Although you were forgiven by our lord, you have never really gotten over it. Now that you are facing another choice, you are shrinking back."

"It's alright, it's all alright. As your most loyal knight, I will choose all of this for you."

Esso's tone was slightly mocking, as if he didn't care at all about what others thought of him.

Thanatos had just made a move when he heard Esso suddenly speak.

"Oh right, I forgot to tell you, I've already taken care of the War Knight. That blockhead only knows how to fight. After I challenged him to a duel and won, he agreed to my request without even bothering to find out if I had hidden any secrets in the conversation."

"As for you, since you don't choose to show favoritism, I'll take that as your acquiescence. Now that I think about it, it seems like we're just one knight away from completing the Twilight set."

Upon hearing Esso's words, Gabriel was about to get up to stop him when he felt all his strength drain away and he fell heavily to the ground the next second.

Upon seeing this, Esso narrowed his eyes slightly.

"I advise you not to underestimate the corrosive power of famine. Given your current injuries, the fact that you can even open your eyes is already a sign of my mercy."

With that, Esso bypassed Gabriel and walked in another direction.

"Let me think. What we lack now is that plague. He should have awakened in this world long ago. Although he is usually a bit reckless towards our lord, he is also extremely loyal. If we talk to him briefly, he should agree."

With this in mind, Esso began to try to sense the other party's exact location.

Gabriel couldn't help but curse inwardly as he looked at his confident expression.

"Damn it! I knew these knights weren't trustworthy. The grudge from thirty million years ago still lingers. And that Thanatos, what are you pretending for now? Show him the courage you had when you abandoned the darkness for the light and single-handedly took on three knights!"

Just as Gabriel was pinning his hopes on whether Thanatos could exert his strength, he suddenly noticed a hint of panic appear on Esso's face, who had been calm and composed.

A bead of cold sweat rolled down the other person's forehead, and then he heard the other person talking to himself.

"Wait, what do you mean by 'the plague has been driven out of the void and has instead sided with chaos'?"

"No? What stupid thing has Pestis done this time!?"

Upon hearing this, not only Thanatos, who was standing to the side, was somewhat bewildered, but even Gabriel, who was lying on the ground at the moment, was also confused.

He had originally placed his hopes on Thanatos.

As it turns out, he didn't get Thanatos's help, but instead got the Plague Knight to unleash his power.

Huh?

……

Southern Continent.

Fryn sat by the fire, grilling the skewers in her hands one by one.

Looking at the skewers she grilled that were always swallowed up by the white flames on the fire as soon as they were done, Fryn couldn't help but ask a question.

"Um... Mr. Pace, I've actually had a question I've been wanting to ask you."

"Hmm? What's the problem? Is the firepower insufficient, or is it too excessive?"

"Uh...not this."

Fryn scratched her head, looking somewhat conflicted.

"I remember you said before that you were a knight under the Void King, so why are you now covered in chaotic power? Is there some connection between chaos and the void?"

Upon hearing this question, the ball of white flame suddenly paused.

Once it realized what was happening, it suddenly rose up and pointed at Flint's nose, cursing.

"I'm warning you, brat, don't you dare slander me! I've always been the most loyal knight under the Void King, how could I possibly be a lackey of Chaos!"

Fryne was taken aback by this scene and could only tentatively ask.

"So, what are you now...?"

"This is called bearing humiliation and carrying a heavy burden! Don't you understand what bearing humiliation and carrying a heavy burden means?! I was only superficially expelled from the Void and joined Chaos as an undercover agent; I am actually still a person of the Void!"

As he spoke, the white flames grew increasingly angry.

"I kindly helped you contribute so much to your performance, and in the end, you still slander my loyalty."

"In short, you just remember this, kid! I, Pestis, am eternally loyal to the Void! Utterly loyal!"
