After calming himself down a bit, Orpheus bent down slightly in front of the girl.

"Can you tell me your name?"

After all, you can't keep calling me "you, you" all the time.

However, the blonde girl simply turned her head away.

"..."

"Halwin."

Just when Orpheus thought it was hopeless, the girl suddenly spoke up.

"Halwin...it's not the answer you're looking for, but you can call me that for now."

"Halwin..."

Orpheus repeated it to himself, then nodded.

"Then, Halwin, could you do me a favor?"

Just then, the thunder, which had been building up to its limit, seemed to finally lose patience and, accompanied by the roar of a giant beast, fell from the sky like a torrential rain.

The next moment, the rain stopped and the sky cleared.

……

……

Rumble! ...

"It can only last for ten minutes in this world at most!"

The dual voices of the goddess pierced through the violent thunder and reached Orpheus's ears.

Time is running out... Even without their reminders, the Dragon Goddess knew this very well.

At this moment, the ground beneath her feet was rapidly cracking and weathering, and mournful cries came incessantly from behind her.

"So, the essence of strengthening is to absorb the power of the earth?"

The essence of the Bull of the Sky is a storm, but it can cause droughts and famines that are the complete opposite of storms. Combined with its ever-growing nature, the principle behind it is that it draws power from the earth.

The myth says it takes seven years... but given the power of the original celestial beetle, shouldn't it have taken less than seven seconds to finish?

There's nothing we can do about it. After all, this is just a fragile world attached to the miniature garden. Just having to accommodate so many two- or three-digit beings is already on the verge of collapse, isn't it?

However, it was thanks to the power of the creator goddess that it was able to sustain itself.

Thanks to this, the power of the Heavenly Beetle, which indirectly absorbed the power of the White Goddess, also increased exponentially.

In contrast—

"Hey, are you alright? Why did you suddenly become so weak?!"

The goddess of the end cried out in alarm, but Orpheus had no time to respond.

Indeed, she has become very weak now, so weak that even a storm of this magnitude that could destroy a planet can make her feel uncomfortable.

To be honest, she didn't expect to be this weak. Sure enough... has the past her left little trace in the present her?

Regardless, this is necessary, because even someone as powerful as her couldn't kill the longhorn beetle.

However, it doesn't matter if you're weak.

"please."

Golden light shattered the storm, and the finest weapons responded to the king's words with smiles, transforming into chains and leaping out.

Even if Orpheus is weak now, as long as her locks are still intact, she can do whatever she wants without any scruples.

After the golden light, she placed her palm on the longhorn beetle bound by chains, and her lips moved slightly.

Then, the new purple light suppressed the golden light, thus completely engulfing the longhorn beetle, which was powerless to resist under the bindings.

Chapter 469 An Unexpected End

"Gaa ...

The celestial beetle roared furiously, its body, composed of thunderclouds, struggling, but was firmly bound in place by the Chains of Heaven named Enkidu, unable to move.

The two goddesses floating on either side had uneasy expressions.

"What exactly is going on..."

They couldn't immediately determine what Orpheus had done, but one thing was certain.

—As two goddesses, they now feel a personal threat in that torrent of light.

Moreover, Orpheus is undoubtedly suppressing himself to a very low level of strength in some way.

Is this the price to pay for using this power?

Regardless, this girl from outside still holds many mysteries...

Alpha habitually analyzed the situation in his mind, but quickly dismissed those thoughts.

Although she tends to veer off-topic, that's only if it's permissible.

Facing this demon king, who is not strong but poses a great threat, it is best to go all out.

"Was it successful?"

"what……"

The goddess who goes all out truly lives up to her title, setting a flag right from the start.

However, the dragon goddess girl had no power to stop it, and simply sat down on the ground and exhaled.

If you look closely, you'll notice that her whole body looks somewhat ethereal, flickering as if there's a bad signal.

Halwin crouched down beside him and poked Orpheus's cheek.

In reality, it's soft.

The blonde girl tilted her head.

"Are you alright?"

"It's okay if something happens."

The dragon goddess girl gently shook her head.

Anyway, it was just a clone formed from a 'snake', so it didn't matter if it exploded. As long as she transferred the information of this body back to the original body in the end, there would be no loss.

The important issue now is the Demon King.

The light finally disappeared completely.

The eye of the storm is now being twisted and contorted in a strange way.

The longhorn beetle that should be in that location is nowhere to be found... but given how often it has resurrected, that's not a reason to feel at ease.

Everyone stared intently in that direction.

"Thank you for your help. Be ready to teleport at any time."

Alpha spoke to Halewin behind him, and the latter nodded.

This world cannot withstand another battle; whatever the outcome, they must leave as soon as possible.

The two had just finished talking when the wind picked up again.

Everyone's expression changed.

That was a power that was enough to make both goddesses feel threatened.

But—after being bathed in this power, the Demon King still survived?!

Even Orpheus frowned deeply.

Mesopotamia in 2600 BC, the people of Uruk behind her, the person with the status of a king and her best friend... the conditions should be complete.

It can't be that the flag set by the Goddess of Creation is a creation-level truth that is therefore unsolvable, right?

What exactly is missing?

A violent airflow, accompanied by streaks of lightning, rose from all directions and then converged at the location where the longhorn beetle had just been, forming a storm ball with a diameter of about ten meters.

Compared to the storm circle that was at least 800 kilometers in diameter and the Sky Beetle that was hundreds of meters high at the beginning, it was insignificant, but in any case, failure was a fact.

"Teleport back to Hakoden first!"

Without further thought, Alpha immediately issued the command.

Since Orpheus's plan has failed, there is no point in staying in this world any longer. They must leave with the Demon King before the world completely collapses.

But at that very moment, the world trembled like never before.

Halwin's eyes flickered, and the transfer that could have started in the blink of an eye was slowed down a little by the curiosity that had arisen in her heart.

Thanks to that pause, 'that' made it in time.

The sky suddenly shattered.

"Ang───"

With a clear whistle, a thick black lightning bolt fell from the broken crack.

The two goddesses' expressions changed once again.

Everyone could feel the terrifying power within that lightning bolt.

More importantly, the two goddesses, who represent the beginning and the end, were unable to sense the beginning and end of this lightning... or even its limit!

"That is……"

Although it looked like lightning to ordinary people, there were no ordinary people present, and the true nature of that 'lightning' was clearly reflected in their eyes.

Then, their eyes turned somewhat strange.

Lightning—the purplish-black dragon-serpent didn't pause in the sky for a moment, swooping down directly.

Boom!
