Alice the Evil – [ダークファンタジー異世界]

Chapter 35 : Declaration as a Goddess



On a beautiful night, two figures are seen floating high in the air. Both of them appear to have humanoid forms and are facing downward.

"This goblin village is truly fascinating,"

"As you said, Alice-sama,"

Alice and Arina are currently floating in the air. They are wearing their usual clothing and not wearing any armor.

Alice's gaze is fixed on the thick fog outside the goblin village. She focuses her attention on the fog and sees a battle between an Ancient Lich and a Goblin Berserker. However, Alice's expression turns slightly surprised when she observes the goblin using anomaly magic to fight the Ancient Lich.

"Anomaly Magic? But judging from its spell sequence, it's Anomaly Magic Type I,"

Arina thinks hard, and she does not know Anomaly Magic. Throughout her life, Arina has only played the role of a specialized Tanker with the [Taunt] effect and support abilities to use skill and magic buffs or debuffs.

Anomaly Magic is far from Arina's understanding.

"I don't understand, Alice-sama,"

Alice glances at Arina for a moment, who bows her head slightly, feeling guilty for not understanding.

"There's a bug - no, I mean a world's mistake, which created the anomaly race,"

"My Corrupted race is also a world's mistake, like the anomaly race,"

Arina can't believe that Alice's race, which resembles her master, is a mistake of the world.

"That can't be,"

"It's the actual truth, and you should be the only one who knows this. Unlike me, the Anomaly race eventually becomes a World Monster, one of the most powerful World Monsters,"

"The Anomaly race you see fighting the Ancient Lich over there is a bodyless Anomaly race, called Wisp Anomaly,"

"They can possess the bodies of any creature and elevate the creature's level to around a hundred to a hundred and ten,"

"So that's it. Thank you for sharing your knowledge, Alice-sama,"

"No problem. So, is it time for us to reveal ourselves?"

Alice asks while observing the goblins running in a panic as they are chased by Flamegator. Many goblins are being trampled by Flamegator-like insects, and many goblins are burnt to a crisp.

It's a gruesome sight, but Alice is calmly enjoying it.

"Not yet, Alice-sama. We'll wait for those lowly races to lose hope,"

"Alright, that's a good idea, waiting for someone who has lost hope, then saving them..."

Alice smiles widely because she is currently excited. She never expected to encounter such a rare race, as well as a race that nearly killed her in the game Monsterland.

After observing Flamegator, Alice realizes something. However, Alice also finds it strange because Flamegator...

"Oh, by the way, isn't Flamegator from the crystal in the warehouse?"

"That's right. Aether requested it to ensure the smooth conquest of the goblin village,"

"I see. It's a brilliant plan, but I doubt Aether designed it alone,"

Suddenly, Alice thinks of someone who is most likely the mastermind behind this entire scenario.

"Aether should have been summoned, how could it be?"

Arina remains silent, watching her master. Alice decides not to dwell on this matter any longer. At least, all her subordinates have done their tasks well, and the first stone for her to control the Abyssal Forest will soon be achieved.

For some reason, Alice feels that her nature is slowly changing, and her memories of her previous life are also fading. However, Alice doesn't mind that as long as she can protect herself and her possessions by any means.

The goblins are gathered in a building protected by a bubble-shaped shield. Alice observes the building, and Arina quickly answers Alice's unspoken question.

"That is the temple that will be used to worship you, Alice-sama,"

"Ooohhh... Good, you've executed the plan excellently. The only way to conquer monster races like goblins is to make me not a hero but a Goddess,"

"Yes, I think that's the best approach. We can also gain many advantages, including offerings that we can use for experiments,"

Flamegator starts ramming into the bubble, and the goblins begin to pray to Alice. However, Alice feels something strange in her body as the goblins pray, and she receives a notification in her mind.

[Congratulations! You now have approximately 300 worshippers. You have met the requirements to summon 3 more Servants.]

[The more worshippers you have, the higher your statistics will continue to increase!]

Alice smiles broadly after learning this vital information. She is becoming more certain of her goal. If having people worship her alone can enhance her statistics, then she must acquire more worshippers.

(This is fun!!!)

She also recalls something. If this is a new world, there must be other gods who govern this world. Alice then looks up, assuming a posture like a servant offering a prayer.

"Oh, kind and sweet God, let me introduce myself, Alice Vasilissa. AND I WILL TEAR YOU APART LIKE ANIMAL MEAT AND FEED IT TO THE MAGGOTS!!!!!!"

"I WILL TAKE YOUR PLACE IN THIS WORLD!!!! AND I WILL CHANGE THIS WORLD!!!! IF YOU HEAR THIS, YOU CAN SEND YOUR SERVANTS TO STOP ME OR COME DOWN YOURSELF TO STOP ME!!!!!"

"BUT IF YOU'RE AN ENTITY THAT DOESN'T EXIST, THEN YOU SHOULDN'T BE ABLE TO STOP ME!!!!"

"WATCH ME MAKE THOSE GOBLINS BOW TO ME!!!!"

Arina, witnessing Alice, is undoubtedly shocked after Alice declares war against the God of this world, but she is also very excited. Alice's eyes have now turned red and seem to glow.

Yes, her emotions from earlier caused her pre-reincarnation nature to significantly fade. It's only the third day since Alice's reincarnation.

The sound of the shield shattering brings Alice back to her senses after she gets too excited and declares war on the God of this world.

"Arina, it's time. Do as you wish. There should be no failure or deviation this time,"

"Understood! Alice-sama,"

Arina then disappears from Alice's side after a brief bow. Now Alice looks downward, and she sees Flamegator beginning to attack the goblins.

"In that case, I just need to deactivate my flying magic,"

After deactivating the magic that allowed her to float, Alice's body immediately plummets at high speed. As her body falls into a standing position, Alice becomes even more excited, thinking that she will become stronger with more followers.

After falling for a few seconds from a high altitude at high speed, Alice's feet hit Flamegator, causing significant damage. She stands on Flamegator's neck and cheek.

Not to forget, Alice senses something strange from Flamegator. It's the same aura as the Anomaly race.

(RASCALS!!! WHO DARES TO DAMAGE MY COLLECTION BY INFILTRATING IT!!!!)

(I WILL HAVE THEM SKINNED AND LET THEIR FLESH BE EATEN BY MAGGOTS!!)

Alice's anger instantly begins to subside as she glances at the goblins who are prostrating themselves to her, combined with Saphielle's welcoming of Alice. The anger nearly made Alice unleash her Origin Skill, which is her trump card, earlier.

The skill is [Origin: Corrupted Form], which can transform her appearance to match the corrupted race she possesses and restrict her to close combat. It can also make her look quite terrifying, with her blood turning black.

"Welcome, Goddess Alice,"

(So, that's Aether's summoned Karma Elf, she looks like a typical high-level elf)

(By the way, she's beautiful, and it seems the goblins are still prostrating)

Alice then looks towards the helpless Anomaly Flamegator that she had struck earlier. Alice is sure that her statistics have increased, especially from her previous attack.

(Flamegator should have been around level 60, and now it's level 120)

(If I had used my skill even a little when I hit Flamegator earlier, this monster would have died instantly.)

Alice gazes back at the goblins who are bowing, and she notices something. A few human women are prostrating at the back, and Alice recalls something.

For now, all Alice needs to do is declare herself and confirm that she is a Goddess who will save the goblins from Flamegator or this monster.

[Special Skill: Angel Voice]

"I have heard all of your prayers, and now I am here to save you,"

A beautiful voice resounds very clearly; it is the voice of Goddess Alice.

"If you believe in me, I can guarantee prosperity for you. But don't forget, there is a price to pay for it. You must perform many rituals and offerings in return for my kindness and blessings in your lives."

(Truth be told, I don't care if you perish, die, suffer, or anything. All I need is for you to worship me.)

The goblins are still prostrating, and Saphielle is also seen kneeling with her head bowed.

(It seems better to relocate this monster elsewhere.)

[Ultimate Skill: Double Teleportation]

Instantly, Alice and Flamegator disappeared, and it happened in less than a second. Alice now arrives near Aether, who appears to have found a goblin using a golden tree root.

Meanwhile, Alice is still standing on Flamegator, and Flamegator seems to be struggling, but the monster is powerless and unable to do anything due to the vast difference in strength.

Upon realizing Alice's presence, Aether immediately kneels to welcome Alice.

"Welcome, and thank you for helping and expediting this plan, Alice-sama,"

"Good job, Aether. I'm pleased that you've executed your tasks so well,"

"Thank you. Brain Doppelganger was supposed to send Flamegator to create chaos, but there was a guest who took over the Brain Doppelganger's role,"

"I see. Well, at least this time everything went smoothly,"

"In that case, thank you, Alice-sama,"

Alice gazes at a severely wounded goblin who is bound. The aura of that goblin is the same as the goblin that fought the Ancient Lich and Flamegator.

"Anomaly, huh,"

"It's impossible! How can the Corrupted race be here?"

"You're very rude to call Alice-sama by her race's name; realize your position!"

Aether becomes instantly angry, and the tree root binding the goblin, or Drazz, tightens further until Drazz vomits blood.

"I'm also surprised why something dirtier than goblins - no, something dirtier than filth itself can be here,"

"Even daring to defile my items,"

Not long after, two severely injured goblins suddenly appear near Drazz. These two goblins are Acs and Viez, who are already seriously wounded, with both their arms and legs severed and unable to regenerate.

"You've come at the right time, damn it! I'll absorb you right away!"

Drazz opens his mouth, and the two dying goblins instantly turn into tiny particles and are sucked into Drazz's mouth, like a vacuum cleaner sucking up dust. Aether reflexively tries to stop Drazz, but Alice uses her magic to restrain Aether.

"Let it be, Aether. I want to see what he's doing,"

Drazz's injuries instantly heal after absorbing his two comrades. The golden roots binding Drazz have been released, and he now glares sharply at Alice and Aether.

"I WILL KILL BOTH OF YOU AT ONCE!"

With a murderous aura and intense hatred, he screams at Alice and Aether.
