The story of the black silk female knight

It is no secret that spellcasters who practice the Britannia family's linking secrets cannot use elemental magic; the Sin Angel is well aware of this.

But now Tia has unleashed two high-level elemental defensive spells in one go...

No, that's not right!

The Sinful Angel was even more astonished after carefully observing the flow of magic.

Tia didn't expend much magic power at all, and the one who used two high-level spells in a row was actually Valensa, who was currently in puppet form!

Chapter 75 Sending you to see the goddess!

Forbidden-level wind magic blots out the sky, its roar tearing everything apart. Trees and rocks with a diameter of more than two meters cannot withstand it for more than three seconds before being blown away. Unfortunate beasts and monsters caught in it are crushed to pieces before they can even scream.

The 100-meter-high earthen wall was the first to collide with the storm. It was relatively stable at first, but after a few seconds it began to shake violently. Soil and gravel slid down from the top of the wall with a series of thuds. The wall continued to vibrate, and the cracks grew larger and larger until it finally shattered and collapsed completely.

Fortunately, the sacrifice of the earthen wall was not in vain. More than a third of the storm's power was consumed, and its range and wind speed were significantly reduced. Then, it began to clash with the second layer of water curtain shield.

In terms of solidity and weight, water is certainly not as good as earth.

However, water is a fluid, which can dissipate force through high-speed rotation, and it also has a high specific heat capacity, which can better absorb thermal energy attacks.

The heat generated by friction as the storm destroys the earthen wall is quickly carried away by the water curtain, which also rotates counterclockwise at high speed, further offsetting the storm's impact.

The two sides were deadlocked for quite a while, and it took several minutes before a winner was decided.

The victor is still the storm; it successfully tore the water curtain apart, but it is also exhausted and no longer has any destructive power, only able to blow up the skirt.

The Sinful Angel hadn't intended to end the battle with this forbidden wind spell. Her plan was to force Tia to defend herself through wide-range attacks, thus depleting Tia's magic power. Once Tia's magic power was exhausted and she was forced out of her current, strangely powerful state, she could use the power of time to overwhelm Valensa and secure victory.

Unfortunately, the Sin Angel miscalculated again... Tia easily blocked the wind-type forbidden spell with two high-level elemental protective spells, with almost no magic power consumed. On the contrary, the Sin Angel's own not-so-large magic power was consumed in considerable quantities.

After all, the primary duty of the Sin Angel is a priest, and magic is only a secondary skill for her. Her wind magic is only roughly equivalent to the peak of the Star Glory level, while divine magic is the foundation of her status as a Moon Glory powerhouse.

However, the use of divine magic requires the approval of the gods, and since the Sin Angel has now chosen to become a god himself, he can no longer use the divine magic of the Sun Goddess.

This wouldn't have been a problem in itself; the power of a false god's authority is no less than that of a true god's divine arts. The power of the Sin Angel after fusing with the divine spark has indeed increased significantly.

Unfortunately, time-based powers are ineffective against Tia, whose soul is linked to the River of Time. This forces the Sin Angel to use wind magic and melee techniques to fight Tia.

Tia's Time Witch state is indeed only temporary; it will disappear when her magic is exhausted. The Sin Angel's strategy of waging a war of attrition is not actually wrong.

Even if Tia can still control Valensa's body, it won't be of much use. Someone who has only ever played as a mage since childhood can't possibly master a warrior character in a short time.

But what the Sin Angel never expected was that Valensa actually knew magic, and she didn't even need to consume any magic power to cast spells. Her divine bloodline allowed her to control elemental forces from birth!

However, Valensa's understanding of magical theory was a complete mess. Just like someone without a talent for math will still not be able to solve a problem no matter how hard they try, Valensa would get sleepy whenever she came into contact with magical theory.

Therefore, Valensa's own magic has always been quite crude, basically just basic operations such as gathering and releasing elemental power, and she doesn't know any spell models at all... The only magic she is relatively proficient in is ceremonial armor, which is a kind of magic that transforms elemental power into weapons and armor, and it suits her very well.

Tia, on the other hand, was a true magical genius. From a young age, she had been familiar with all kinds of magical theories. She could memorize any spell model and magic circuit after reading it twice. It was as if she already knew calculus when others were learning linear equations in two variables.

Unfortunately, the Britannia family's inherited secret technique is quite unique. After practicing the Linking Secret Technique, one can no longer use any elemental magic and can only practice some non-attribute magic. This means that Tia's spells are mainly auxiliary spells.

However, not being able to use elemental spells doesn't mean Tia can't. The basic requirement for breaking or countering a spell is to understand it. Tia actually already knows the elemental spells of the Sage system very well. The only thing she doesn't know is the more dangerous forbidden spells, because her access level in the Sage Tower is too low to access them.

What would happen if someone who has memorized the spell models of most elemental magic suddenly had an external body that allowed them to cast spells at will with almost no mana consumption?

Valensa, who is currently engaged in a magical battle with the Sinful Angel, is the answer.

He could effortlessly wield high-level magic of various attributes, as easily and smoothly as breathing.

Your wind-based forbidden spells are very powerful, but if I can instantly cast high-level spells of all attributes without consuming mana, how would you deal with that?

The answer given by the Sin Angel was that there was no solution.

He only tried exchanging high-level spells once before decisively giving up.

Tia had the advantage in casting speed, spell power, and attribute advantage. The Sin Angel was completely suppressed by the fifth spell, its defense was broken by the seventh spell, and it was directly killed by the ninth and tenth spells.

The false god's power to reverse time resurrected the Sin Angel on the spot, but the resurrected Sin Angel was definitely unable to maintain her suppression of Valensa, so she was killed by Valensa again as soon as she was resurrected, which means she lost two lives in one round.

The resurrected Sin Angel was finally prepared. Ignoring Tia's immediate and full control of her powers, she suppressed Valensa and managed to escape the final blow.

However, Valensa, whose consciousness was suppressed by the power of time, was soon taken over by Tia again. She was transformed from an evil holy knight into a magic humanoid with no cooldown and no mana cost for casting spells, and all kinds of high-level elemental spells were rained down on the sin angel.

Having learned from its mistake, the Sinful Angel did not use high-level spells of the same rank to clash this time. Instead, it used faster mid-level spells to barely defend itself. When it couldn't block the damage, it took the damage with its body. It used all the time it gained to gather magic power and chant at high speed, and then activated the forbidden spell again.

Forbidden spells are indeed powerful; Tia often needs at least three high-level spells to counteract them, but the burden of using forbidden spells continuously is significantly greater.

The Sin Angel initially held some advantage, but it was still no match for Tia's high-level spells that could be unleashed without cost using Valensa's body.

When Tia unleashed her 22nd high-level fire spell, the Sin Angel could no longer keep up with the speed at which it released forbidden spells. The hastily used mid-level protective spells were also unable to stop it. Its already injured body was burned halfway through, forcing it to use the power of the False God to reverse time once again.

Relying solely on wind magic and melee skills, the Sinful Angel cannot defeat Valensa at her full power. Using only time stop as an aid would be countered by time jump. Only by using all of his powers could he suppress Valensa's consciousness.

Normally, a life without consciousness is useless and can only become a puppet to be manipulated. However, Valensa can be controlled by Tia to exert combat power even in puppet form, turning her into a ruthless spellcasting machine... This spellcasting machine is still no match for the Sin Angel!

This frustrating situation almost made the Sinful Angel vomit blood... After scheming for hundreds of years, she finally succeeded in obtaining godhood and ascending to become a false god, but she encountered her nemesis right after her debut and was about to crash and burn.

If they flee without a fight, it would be equivalent to their centuries of hard work becoming a joke, their mental state would be greatly impacted, and their strength would regress instead of improve, perhaps even falling behind their previous saintess form.

This was something the Sin Angel desperately wanted to avoid, but after being blasted apart by Tia's magic for the fourth time, the Sin Angel felt that perhaps he should really make a strategic retreat.

The power of the false god to reverse time can indeed resurrect the body on the spot, but it is not without cost. Compared to when he was resurrected after being killed by Valensa the first time, the Sin Angel can now feel obvious fatigue.

I'm outta here, I can't beat them.

Just as this thought crossed the Angel of Sin's mind, she suddenly realized that Tia, who had been controlling Valensa to cast spells, was not without any cost.

While Valensa's body could unleash a series of high-level spells without requiring any magic, Tia's act of controlling Valensa's body itself did require magic.

Compared to her initial high spirits, Tia's breathing was now noticeably heavier, her face was paler, and even her white stockings were covered in holes.

what does this mean?

The Sinful Angel was no stranger to the [Heart of Stockings], an item that could transform energy into clothing. Many powerful female cultivators loved to use it, and she herself possessed one.

Therefore, the Sinful Angel also knew very well that since Tia was no longer repairing the hole in the white stockings on her legs, it meant that her magic power was already very strained!

Then there's no need to run! Let's keep at it! Let's see how much magic you little witch have left!

I can't outlast someone with divine blood, but surely I can outlast a little human witch like you?

The Sinful Angel's eyes hardened, and he gritted his teeth and held his breath, continuing the war of attrition.

Various high-level spells and forbidden wind spells clashed continuously, causing enormous damage to the area surrounding Cloud Hidden Ridge and even the entire Ruler Island. The aftershocks of various spells raged everywhere like a natural disaster.

Although the adventurers on the island didn't know which two powerful figures were fighting to the death, they knew very well that if they stayed on the island, they might be caught in the crossfire.

In fact, many unfortunate people have been blown away by storms, submerged by tsunamis, or swallowed up by avalanches and mudslides on Xueding Mountain.

The remaining people dared not linger any longer and ran off the island without looking back. Various merchant ships, fishing boats, adventure ships, and pirate ships sailed away from Chizhi Island.

Several hours passed before the clashes of high-level or forbidden magic that had been erupting continuously at the center of Ruler Island finally ended, and the turbulent magical energy gradually calmed down.

"H-how are you, little witch? Are you the one who's about to give up?"

The Sinful Angel, who had just used the power of the false god to rewind time and be reborn again, was panting heavily. Exhausted, she even gave up on restoring her clothes to conserve energy and wore nothing at all.

Tia was also in very poor condition. The white stockings on her legs had long since disappeared, turning into magical energy to replenish herself, but she had also exhausted them all.

The witch's hat on her head was long gone, only one of her boots remained, and her robes had also been slashed by a wind blade, only covering the upper part of her chest.

Most importantly, Tia's aura has changed significantly. Her trial card as the Witch of Time has finally expired, and she has returned to being the little mage who has not yet reached the Radiant rank.

Valensa didn't change much, at least not physically... In fact, she had also suffered a lot of injuries in the magical clash, but they were quickly repaired by the super-fast regeneration of the evil god's power. The only battle mark on her body was the hole in her black bodysuit.

Valensa was almost completely dazed throughout the entire ordeal.

During the few hours that followed, she could only recover each time the Sin Angel resurrected and began casting, after which her consciousness would be suppressed again by the Sin Angel's power, and her body would be taken over by Tia.

Fortunately, Valensa trusted Tia enough, and the two had a good understanding.

Valensa was not fully conscious for long, but she quickly pieced together the general situation through a combination of guesswork and deduction.

When Valensa heard the Sinful Angel mocking Tia, she immediately clenched her fist:

"Don't forget I'm still here!"

Her tone was fierce, but her actions were cowardly... Valensa had no intention of going forward to finish off Tia. Instead, she returned to Tia's side to protect her as she cast her final teleportation spell to escape.

"You? Heh~~"

The Sinful Angel held Valensa in utter contempt:

"If it weren't for this little witch, you would have died countless times! I could use my power to suppress your consciousness again and turn you into a puppet at any time! Just like this... uh pfft!"

Just as the Sin Angel was about to unleash her power once more, she suddenly clutched her chest, her face contorted in a grimace as if she were having an asthma attack, and began to cough violently.

"Cough cough cough cough..."

She looked very vulnerable, but Valensa was worried that the Sinful Angel was deliberately creating an opening... Tia was extremely vulnerable after exiting her Time Witch form, and she absolutely could not take any risks now.

It seems that Valensa was overly cautious.

After coughing violently for a while, the Sinful Angel looked at the hand that had just covered his mouth, his face ashen, his eyes filled with disbelief:

"How could this happen... my Illusionary Godhood... why?"

In my palm were several eggshell-like fragments, off-white and translucent, shimmering with a faint light, gradually turning into specks of light and dissipating into the air.

Is there something wrong with her divine status?

Valensa was secretly pleased, but she didn't act impulsively; instead, she remained vigilant and observed carefully.

Sure enough, not only did the coughing cause fragments of divinity to be coughed up, but the skin and flesh of the Sin Angel also suffered burns out of thin air, as if it were in an oven, and began to peel off in a rush.

This burn did not come from the outside, but from within the Sin Angel's body. Valensa was also familiar with the energy that burned the Sin Angel's flesh and blood; it was the power of the Sunfire God.

As a former Saintess of the Sun, the Sinful Angel must also possess the power of the Sun Flame, and her cultivation level is likely higher than Valensa's.

However, after fusing with the divine essence and ascending to the Goddess of Illusion, the power of the Yang Flame Divine Power could no longer be used. The Sin Angel should have already emptied the Yang Flame Divine Power from her body and replaced it with a new type of Order Divine Power that was more suitable for her.

But now, for some unknown reason, the power of the Yang Flame God suddenly reappeared in the Sin Angel's body. Since the Sin Angel's body no longer had the adaptability to the power of the Yang Flame God, it would naturally be burned by the high temperature, as if it were in an oven, a truly horrific sight.

With things as they are, there shouldn't be any more surprises. Valensa breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to step forward and finish off the Sinful Angel, sending her on her final journey.

It has already started coughing up fragments of its divine essence, and its powers have failed to activate. It is highly likely that this sinful angel will not be able to reverse time and will only have one life left.

"No...you can't kill me!"

The Sin Angel seemed to realize this as well, and seeing Valensa approaching with a lightsaber, she suddenly roared hysterically:

"Do you know who I am? I have served as a saint on two planets, and my contributions to the Church of the Sun are hundreds of times greater than yours! I have personally been to the Kingdom of God! I have received the favor of Her Majesty the Goddess... Do you dare to kill Her Majesty the Goddess's woman?"

"..."

Valensa frowned and actually stopped in her tracks:

"I've heard Princess Velenkasa mention you, Angela, the Saintess of Illusion... You have indeed protected human civilization countless times, fighting for faith and honor... So why have you become like this? Did something happen to you when you fought the insectoid beasts alone back then?"

"You even know all this? Hmph, it seems Velenkasa likes you quite a bit, even telling you these things when there are hardly any people at your church headquarters who know anything about me."

The Sin Angel was somewhat surprised, but then regained its confidence:

"You think I became like this because something went wrong during the battle against the insect beasts? Hmph, actually, that insect beast invasion was something I arranged, just to put on a show and get away with it."

"To achieve my goal, continuing as a saintess or faking my death would both do more harm than good. Only by maintaining my saintly status and disappearance can I operate in the shadows!"

"...And what is your goal? Is it to become a false god?"

Valensa asked, puzzled:

"Why? Since your achievements are enough to be favored by the goddess in the divine kingdom, you should already have great power and near-eternal life. Why do you still pursue a mere false god?"

"Ha...you don't understand anything at all!"

The angel of sin spoke with even more disdain:

"It is precisely because I have personally been favored by Her Majesty the Goddess that I can better understand the wonder of power. I will never be content with being just a pet... She was able to rise from a human to a true god, so why can't I?"

“…Ambition? I understand.”

Valensa took a deep breath:

"One last question, I'm asking on behalf of a friend... What are your thoughts on Lily of the Valley, that is, Mr. Karen, one of your ex-husbands?"

"Husband? Ha~~"

The angel of sin's eyes were only momentarily glazed over before turning mocking:

"Just a tool... I've known for a long time that it's extremely difficult to ascend to godhood in the current environment, at least I absolutely cannot do it on my own."
