Mystery: She came from the Chaos Sea.

Chapter 55 The Queen of Fear

Sensing the emotional shifts within the phoenix's inner world, Helmaenie couldn't help but sigh:

The essential power of the "dreamer's" approach...

This power to subtly manipulate other living beings captivated Helmani, but it also made her wary.

"No wonder every 'manipulator' must know how to restrain themselves and respect others. Even if they can resist the mark of depravity and filth by relying on the 'Hanged Man' ability, they will gradually go crazy without realizing it if they are intoxicated by this desire to manipulate."

"Of course, this doesn't mean we dare not use this power of mind manipulation, but rather that we must avoid becoming addicted to it."

Helmani let out a soft sigh as her figure slowly faded from the "island," but just as she was about to truly withdraw from the collective unconscious ocean of this area, a tall, gigantic phantom suddenly rose from the deep corner of the earth.

The giant phantom had a bloody human thigh between its teeth.

The enormous, vertical single eye stared at Helmaenie, and stretched out its rotting giant hand to grab her.

These giant phantoms are not real living beings, but rather manifestations of the spiritual imprint of "giants eating people."

The spiritual imprint is not only a sedimentation of the collective will of the region at present.

Once this sediment becomes an imprint, it will also have a reverse effect on the same species in the surrounding area, becoming their shared, ancient "memory" engraved in their blood!

"To manifest to this extent, the giants... hah."

Hermaine's gaze was icy; she didn't fight back, but gracefully dodged away.

But as she dodged, the gloomy profile on her face opened its eyes.

The heavy cloak draped over Helmani's back scattered as her gloomy profile opened her eyes, flowing into rotten black water bubbling with filth, sweeping towards the giant's phantom!

Although these black waters and the giant phantom are both spiritual imprints settled in this ocean of collective subconsciousness, the giant phantom inevitably becomes stiff and sluggish in its movements after being submerged in the black water—different spiritual imprints cannot be integrated.

Looking at the giant phantom roaring like a wild beast in front of her, Helmaenie's expression darkened slightly. The giant phantom did not pose a danger to her.

But through this giant phantom, she sensed that something like "giants eating people" was happening in this area!

She saw that the giant, who was supposed to protect the vassal races, not only turned a blind eye to the phoenix's rampage, but also captured and savored the humans who went out to explore, while watching with great amusement as the phoenix toyed with the creatures of the wilderness.

Even with all her rationality, Helmaenie could not contain her emotions at this moment.

She didn't even want to see the mental imprint of "giants eating people" remaining in this ocean of collective subconsciousness, even though the giant phantom in front of her was just the tip of the iceberg.

She wanted to truly destroy this giant phantom.

Hermaine does not have the ability to purify spiritual imprints, but the Triads possess the authority to bear corruption!

The positions of the three faces – “Id,” “Degenerate,” and “Pure” – shifted according to Hermaine’s thoughts.

That gloomy profile covered her face. Although the face was exactly the same, the gloomy face with a sorrowful expression represented Hermaine's "fallen self"!

The gloomy Helmayne lowered her head, and the giant phantom in front of her rapidly dissolved under some strange gravitational force, turning into black mist that drifted toward Helmayne's body.

As the black mist drew closer, the marks of the fallen ones, imprinted on Helmaenie's body, seemed to come alive and howled in unison.

A scholastic church was faintly visible behind Helmaenie.

The upside-down statue in the church, resembling Hermaine, absorbed all the drifting black mist.

Hermaine's other holy face also opened its eyes, its illusory lips moving as it devoutly chanted.

While bearing the spiritual imprint of "giants eating people" in a state of self-sacrifice, Hermaine also diverted a part of her spirit to connect with Amanisis's spiritual world.

Hermaine's current mental strength was insufficient to penetrate Amanisis's subconscious.

But with a tacit understanding, Amanisis, touched by her spirit, took the initiative to lower her guard against her.

The moment Helmaene connected with Amanisis's consciousness, she transmitted to Amanisis's subconscious the arrangements she had made in the Phoenix's subconscious, including the locations of the man-eating giant and the two humans who had escaped harm, obtained from the giant phantom.

A rampaging phoenix, a giant watching with amusement, and humans whose lives are in grave danger...

Amanisis, who was standing guard beside Helmani, received this information and also sensed the anger and murderous intent surging in Helmani's heart.

At that moment, the phoenix whose subconscious had been altered "opened the door" and came to meet Amanisis, who had transformed into a demonic wolf.

Upon seeing the demon wolf, the phoenix, whose subconscious had been stirring up its eagerness, was somewhat bewildered.

But when He tried to escape, the pale flames that floated on the surface of His body were wiped away as if they had been wiped off!

The eight-legged demon wolf, in its most ferocious form, tore apart His wings. The raging spirit that corrupted everything destroyed His spirit, preventing Him from even using the closest teleportation ability.

Then, He no longer needed to use any abilities...

After instantly killing the divine phoenix, the massive demonic wolf dragged the still-warm corpse of the phoenix and used the spirit realm to travel to the location that Helmaenie had given it.

……

The gray-blue giant, his mouth stained with blood, reached out to grab the huntress and her companions.

The giant's massive size was matched by its incredible speed, leaving the two no time to dodge.

Just when the two female hunters were in their most desperate moment, an eight-legged demon wolf with sharp claws grabbing the corpse of a phoenix suddenly appeared from mid-air and fell down. The phoenix corpse it threw hit the gray-blue giant, splattering countless blood and pus.

A light like the dawn appeared on the blood-stained, berserk giant.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

"Demon Wolf!"

When those enormous vertical eyes swept over Amanisis's wolf form, a deep fear emanated from the wolf's dark eyes, causing it to tremble all over, and even the protective power maintaining its body surface collapsed!

At this moment, Amanisis was not in the form of a mythical creature, but rather in the form of a demon wolf.

Even so, the power of fear that He wielded still terrified the giant before him to death.

"Killing the phoenix would terrify the giants," Amanisis glanced sideways at the two human women slumped and trembling in the corner beside her.

His arms, extending from his sides, dragged the corpses of the phoenix and the giant, roughly leaving two deep furrows in the ground.

With her even larger size, Amanisis dragged the corpses of these two enormous creatures, deliberately passing by a human tribe a little further away.

The earth-shaking footsteps, the arrogant phoenix and the gruesome corpse of the giant, coupled with the terrifying power deliberately overflowing from Amanisis.

The tribes will never forget that day when they were dominated by fear.

As she was about to disappear from human sight, Amanisis's body gradually straightened up, transforming into a half-wolf, half-human female form that was even taller than a giant.

……

When Hermaine saw Amanisis dragging two corpses back, she sighed softly, "You've wasted your time."

Hermaine originally intended for Amanisis to kill the phoenix as a human demigod, and then use this incident to spread her teachings among the nearby human tribes.

But all of this was shattered because her obsession with killing the Titans vanished—Amanisis, who had killed the Titans, could no longer reveal her identity as a human demigod.

Amanisis chuckled upon hearing this, "Preaching... is essentially an extension of power. I haven't been working in vain."

In Amanisis's ears, many new, illusory prayers could be heard.

They fanatically worshipped Him as their faith, calling Him:

"The Queen of Fear"

Everyone was amazing these past three days! I'm absolutely thrilled! [facepalm]

I hope everyone can turn to the last chapter when I start reading tomorrow at midnight. Please! Whether it gets published on Light Novel Elementary School depends on this! I'll try my best to write more chapters! =3=
