"What is this, ah——"
“No, don’t—”
"Samuel? Samuel—!"
Beside Eve, a petite figure appeared in the light.
"Eve."
“…It’s the power of the demon god.”
"Ah."
Seeing Ilvia suddenly appear on her own initiative, combined with the disgust he felt, it was self-evident what exactly appeared in the Metal City.
"Black Hell Cannon"
Without any hesitation, the magic circle that had just dissipated after Ilvia gave her confirmation appeared in front of Eve again, directly aimed at the remaining part of the Metal City, trying to directly kill the existence that was contaminated with the power of the demon.
But unfortunately, her action was still half a beat late.
Before the dark beam of light wiped out the existence of the Metal City, a dark shadow rushed out from it.
"Tsk."
With a dissatisfied click of the tongue, Eve began to look at this guy who suddenly appeared and was contaminated with the power of the devil.
It was like forcibly merging a dozen humans together. The feeling this monster gave Eve at first glance could be summed up in one word - disgusting.
On the monster's chest, human faces with different expressions were embedded on it, and they seemed to have their own consciousness, some were terrified, some were wailing.
On the monster's thick limbs, normal-sized limbs were covered like a layer of armor. The different pairs of arms were now grabbing four lucky ones, or unlucky ones, who had not been completely absorbed.
It seems that due to Eve's previous attack, it was unable to absorb it directly and had to escape early.
Although the monster's head had swelled several times, one could still vaguely see its prototype, which was Samuel, who was ridiculed by Eve before the war.
§99 Beheading
“YYY——Yiyi——fufufu!!!”
The monster's head, which had expanded several times, roared Eve's name. The appendages growing on its thick arms exerted force together and directly crushed the few people who had not been completely absorbed by it. The remaining limbs and blood of those people were completely swallowed up by the black mud, without a single bit of waste.
Immediately afterwards, new heads and appendages appeared on the monster's abdomen and limbs again, accompanied by the surge of black mud, and its aura was once again elevated. With the blessing of the power of the demon god, the monster transformed by Samuel had completely surpassed the two imperial generals.
This sudden change also made the two people who were originally chasing Eve in the distance stunned in place, completely unaware of what was happening.
"…trouble."
The blood-colored magic power that was originally wrapped around her gradually turned purple-black. Eve once again raised the empty blade and aimed it at the monster that was still changing.
She was in no mood to wait for the other party to play the cutscene. If she was associated with the power of the devil, she would go to hell.
"Black Hell Cannon"
For the third time, the dark beam of light appeared in front of Eve again and bombarded the monster, but this time, the beam of light did not disappear as it avoided it. Instead, it continued to chase it like a shadow, vowing to kill it completely.
But as we all know, accidents are inevitable in life.
"'Heaven's End'"
A familiar translucent line flew towards Eve's position accompanied by a roar, forcing her to interrupt the output of the Black Prison Magic Cannon.
Well, there is a coin minting that is holding it back, I won’t tell you who it is.
"What did you do to them—!"
A beat later, the voice of the Imperial General Atwood Deliu followed, as if to dig out Eve's heart and bones.
Those people are the future of the empire!
As a result, everything was burned down in the blink of an eye.
"Tsk."
Eve casually swung her empty blade to destroy the approaching thin line, and replied while barely suppressing her dissatisfaction.
"That's the question I should be asking you, right? You dared to touch the power of the demon god? You deserve to be like this."
"The power of the devil?"
However, when faced with Eve's words, Atwood looked confused and had no idea what Eve was talking about. What's more important is that this look did not seem to be fake at all.
To be honest, Eve actually hoped that Atwood was pretending to be stupid at this time.
A great general of the empire, one of the most powerful warriors of the human race, a well-deserved high-ranking official, yet he didn't even know what the power of the demon god was?!
So you really don't know that your emperor has been courting disaster!
Although Eve knew that the human race had lost a lot of heritage, more than a billion, she still couldn't help but sigh when she saw this scene.
"Anyway, they are beyond saving. Don't stop me."
As she spoke, Eve fired a few more Hellfire Stars, forcing the monster that wanted to take the opportunity to attack her to stop.
It seems that because the main body of the monster is Samuel, the monster has a deep obsession with Eve, but under this madness it still retains a trace of intuition, which prevents it from rushing forward like a headless fly to die.
After taking a final glance at Atwood, who looked hesitant, and Felum, who was a little further away and had not yet caught up, Eve turned her attention back to the monster.
This monster currently poses no threat to her, perhaps because the number of people fused with it is limited?
But it’s better to get it done quickly. After all, she suspected that the two guys next to her would suddenly go crazy again.
"The Ten Directions Hellfire Realm"
A pitch-black flame barrier emerged from mid-air, blocking the battlefield and enveloping Eve and the monster. Outside, Atwood stood in mid-air holding a sword, staring blankly at the scene in front of him, no one knowing what he was thinking.
"What happened?"
Dozens of seconds later, Felum, whose speed had slowed down due to the interruption of magic sharing, finally arrived. He looked at his colleagues standing there in a daze and the huge black flame barrier in the air and asked.
"…An accident occurred, and the Metal City was destroyed."
"Of course I know this, what about the others?"
Nonsense, from the moment the black beam of light flashed and the magic sharing was cut off, Felum knew that the Metal City had been destroyed, but the key was where were the imperial generals inside?
Were they killed together, or were they trapped in this fire barrier?
"A monster. All of them merged into one monster. That guy said it was all our fault."
Thinking back to the terrifying monster and the mysterious people who cooperated with the emperor, Atwood closed his eyes in sorrow.
"That guy? The vampire princess?"
"…Um."
"You actually believe the enemy's words?! Maybe she's the one behind this. Come with me and find a way to open this thing."
As he spoke, Felum shot a huge ice ball towards the flame barrier, but the ice ball disappeared without even causing a ripple.
“…She had no reason to lie.”
He shook his head and paused for a moment before continuing.
"Now that the connection is broken, it would be effortless for her to defeat us. There's no need for her to do anything unnecessary."
"...Then I want to see it with my own eyes."
After a moment's silence, Felum made his choice. A huge amount of magic power gathered in front of him, and then turned into a dazzling beam of light that rushed straight into the hellfire in front.
Even if a fortress stood in front of him, Ferem was confident that he could destroy it with one blow. However, in front of the seemingly thin fire barrier, the beam of light was no different from the previous ice ball. Until Ferem was temporarily exhausted, it did not cause the slightest ripple.
"…it's useless."
Patting his old friend on the shoulder, Atwood continued.
"Although I don't know why, she's been holding back since the start of the fight. It wasn't until the demonic power she mentioned appeared that she really started to get serious. Let's admit it, we're no match for her."
"Can…"
"Help! General! Help—!"
Just as Felum was about to say something, a hoarse cry for help came out from the barrier first.
"Samuel!"
Hearing the cry for help from Samuel, who had the greatest hope of becoming the fourth general, Felum no longer cared about anything else and blasted out another beam of light regardless of the emptiness in his body.
But to Felum's surprise, after this weak blow, the dark flame barrier collapsed, revealing the scene inside, which also brought him deeper despair.
A hideous monster had been chopped into several pieces by the silver-haired girl holding double blades, and was gradually turning into nothingness under the burning of the dark flames. But even so, the heads growing on the monster's body were still constantly shouting the names of their two generals as if asking for help.
The barrier was broken not because his attack broke through the protection of the fire barrier, but because the battle inside was over.
§100 Outside Bureau
"call--"
Shaking off the flames wrapped around the empty blade and glancing at the two imperial generals with different expressions not far away, Eve raised her hand and summoned several more Hellfire Stars to completely wipe out the monster's remains, ensuring that the monster was completely killed.
To her, this monster posed no threat at all. It was a bit annoying because of its many characteristics. It didn't take much time to chop it off.
What Eve is more concerned about right now is another question - whether the metal objects used by the armies outside will also become like this.
After all, she didn't know what tricks those dwarves or demon followers used to hide their aura. Until the demon's power eroded the monster, she and Ilvia didn't notice anything unusual.
Tsk, get out now.
Thinking of this, Eve pointed the weapon in her hand at the two people not far away.
"So, will you guys admit defeat or let me do it? Just so you know, I won't show any mercy this time."
As he spoke, a pressure far greater than before descended upon the two of them, as if the tangible pressure was about to crush them into pieces.
“…We give up…”
After hesitating for a moment, under the terrifying pressure, Atwood made the first choice and answered on behalf of Felum.
"Atwood!"
Facing the question from Fereham, Atwood just shook his head slightly.
"Admit it... We've already lost, and she deliberately let us go."
"..."
At this moment, Atwood, who was respected by everyone as the Sword of the Empire, looked extremely tired, as if all the strength in his body had been drained away.
I thought the battle was evenly matched, but in fact the other side was just deliberately letting me win.
No, judging by the pressure being placed on them right now, to say they were letting them off would be an understatement.
The previous battle was probably not even a warm-up for this vampire princess.
If the other party has that intention, she can kill them with one blow at any time.
"But before I leave here can I ask two questions."
Atwood asked, looking at Eve not far away, who seemed to be holding a double-edged sword, with blood wings fluttering slightly behind her, as beautiful and majestic as a female war goddess.
"…Ask, I'll answer if it's easy to explain."
"Thank you."
Atwood nodded slightly and continued.
"What is the power of the demon god?"
"The greatest threat to the continent, bar none, is the power of the abyss."
"The second question is, why did you show mercy?"
"Oh, who knows."
Faced with this question, Eve obviously didn't intend to continue talking and directly took over the conversation.
