Asha watched Tamon walk to Gillotti with her eyes wide open.

He was approaching Gillotti with a light and graceful gait, like a person going out for a walk.

Ah, she’d like to slit Gillotti’s neck with her own hands.

But she persevered because she knew it wasn’t the right way to do it.

Gillotti’s pride.

The facade Gillotti was holding onto.

Gillotti’s power had to be destroyed.

With the power from God, she had to break down that arrogance that looked down on all humans.

She came all the way here for it.

With the intention of destroying it so that the force of death, which was against the rules, could no longer grip and shake this country and even this world.

Asha felt the vibration of the incense burner in her arms.

In addition to this, Theoransha was also carrying a golden cup and flute, which had been retrieved and carried by Mana.

Although invisible, Asha could intuitively know that they were also vibrating now.

And this vibration started when she entered the banquet hall.

There must have been a dagger of detoxification somewhere here.

When all of the relics were gathered, a special resonance was created.

And the resonance would summon God and make their wishes come true.

It was a legend from Yasae, but Asha was sure it wasn’t nonsense.

Calling out God in a world dominated by supernatural powers and holy things, rifts and monsters were also not such a nonsensical story.

“Gillotti Tanatos.”

Tamon stood in front of the staggering Gillotti.

“Don’t come, don’t come! How dare you!”

Gillotti’s hair, which had begun to fade from the tip, suddenly lost its color as if it had been completely covered in heavy snow.

His bloody eyes, with burst vessels, were as venomous as a demon, and his skin was as pale as a corpse.

Death.

Yes, Gillotti’s appearance now resembled the death he admired and loved so much.

Losing control of the exploding ability, Gillotti trembled and stretched out his hands toward Tamon.

He was going to strangle Tamon with his own hands.

“…stupid Gillotti.”

However, before his trembling hands could reach Tamon, Tamon grabbed him by the neck first.

“…..!”

The moment Tamon’s hand touched him, Gillotti felt something was wrong.

He (Gillotti) could feel the heat overwhelming the power of death rushing here and there.

“Ack! Ack!”

“I’ve always hated you.” (Tamon)

“Ack! Ack! Kek!”

“It’s still the same.” (Tamon)

Gillotti’s body started to float in the air at Tamon’s hand lifting it lightly as if it was nothing.

If Gillotti’s power moved like a dark and eerie shadow, Tamon’s power enveloped him brightly and splendidly like the rising sun.

“There’s only one thing I’m thankful for.”

Tamon squinted his red eyes and smiled.

“For abandoning her (Asha) even though it was late.”

Tamon was able to bring her back to her whole form, albeit in her rags, as she was abandoned with cuts everywhere.

Tamon glanced back at Asha and looked at his queen, who was looking at the two men with noble eyes.

Although she was wounded and abandoned, she was Roselyn V Sunset.

She was the proudest, smartest, most upright woman he’s ever known.

A woman who never begged for her life, even if she collapsed in destruction, even if the power of life was within her reach.

Rather, she yelled at him (Tamon) for saving her life at will and split her own throat.

Tamon longed for Asha. His desire swelled up in her breath, and from one moment on, he just loved her.

He fell in love so desperately that he wanted to embrace and monopolize her pitiful, pathetic, and foolish figure.

“Thanks to you, I got the chance.” (Tamon)

“You…… !”

Tamon showed his teeth and gave Gillotti a charming smile. At the same time, the overflowing force that ran through his body crushed Gillotti.

“Ahhhh!”

Although he was given the power of life, Gillotti was feeling more suffering than death.

He was like a fire on ice that had to be cold.

The power of death, which had been united in a solid form, was losing its shape and crumbling. Death melted in the overwhelming power of life.

“Oh no…! No way!”

Gillotti grabbed Tamon’s forearm, which had lifted his head, with both hands.

He struggled and raised the scattered power against Tamon.

Death and life were intertwined and fought.

Whooshhhhh! Shhhhhhhhhh!

All eyes gathered at the place were focused on the two of them.

They stopped running, howling, and screaming in surprise, and stared blankly at the sight of two opposing forces colliding.

What surprised in particular was Theoransha, who watched Gillotti crumble with a smirk.

“Ha, this ability…?”

Crash!

The glass of champagne she was holding trembled with a sense of betrayal.

She did not know Tamon had the power of life to face death!

“How dare you hide such a secret!”

Theo’s voice was filled with anger, and Ronasso looked at her in surprise.

Theo quickly turned her head, narrowing her eyes and staring at Ronasso.

“Did you know, Ronasso Bashel?”

“This time, I have the right to remain silent…… .”

“I don’t have any servants to trust!”

“He just revealed…..”

“Shut up, I will return to my home country and ask for the sin of deceiving the king.”

Ronasso, who had become a shrimp caught in the whale fight, lowered his head with a discouraged face.

In the meantime, the balance of the two colliding forces was completely disrupted.

It was a state in which death was almost consumed by the power of life.

“Aaaaah!”

The power of death bounced back and forth as if it were running away.

Gillotti struggled to get out of Tamon’s hand.

“Damn it……! This, this is wrong! Nothing can beat death, I..…ahhhh!”

After letting him go lightly, Tamon watched him tremble.

Was it because of a clash of the two powers?

The chandelier in the huge banquet hall shook, and a calm air current blew. Hartz, who was holding Hannah and Mana, suddenly raised his golden eyes and stared into the air.

Crackle!

Swish!

An eerie feeling of alienation gnawed at his ears.

It was the sound of the space weakened by the clash of supernatural powers being torn apart.

‘No.’

Ha hugged Hannah and Mana even tighter and stepped back. But for some reason, Hannah did not move.

“Hannah, it’s dangerous now, go back……!”

At that moment, Hartz’s eyes turned white and a foreign image flashed past.

It was so fleeting that it could not be said that it was a moment, but it was different from the general image of foreknowledge.

A divine power subtly spreading through Hannah’s body…

“Hey, this is……”

Before Hartz went crazy and surprised.

“Die, Gillotti!”

A shriek was heard along with a sharp scream.

“Uhhhhhhhhhhh! Die! Die! Die!”

Natasha, who was crouching on the floor, crying, stabbed Gillotti in the back with the dagger she was hiding in her torn belly pocket.

“How can you do this to me? What are you doing to me! How can you do that to my children, my babies…!”

Natasha stabbed Gillotti in the back like crazy over and over again.

However, since what she was holding was a dagger of detoxification, a holy relic, the torn and pitted wounds were not deeply pierced and were recovering immediately.

“Ah, ugh! ugh! ugh!”

Still, it was not without the stab wounds and pain, so Gillotti stumbled and fell to the floor.

Gillotti glared at Natasha with eyes full of betrayal.

But there was no room for the two of them to utter any vile and cruel words.

Natasha was also staring piercingly at Gillotti with the same eyes.

“Ha, it’s a gap!”

“Ahhh!”

It was because there was a huge gap in the air that they had never seen before.

Asha looked up at the sky in surprise. Meanwhile, Tamon ran to Asha and hugged her.

“The gap is torn.”

“Is it because the two abilities collided?”

“…No, it’s not just about that.”

Asha hurriedly looked around her.

There were as many as four talented people in this banquet hall now.

On the land of Tanatos, which was said to be inhabited by divine powers, the four talented people who inherited the supernatural powers and the holy relics remaining in this world were all gathered together.

The ‘power of God’ scattered around the world was concentrated in excess.

She wasn’t sure, but it was highly likely that this caused some bizarre phenomenon.

Asha felt the incense burner vibrating more and more intensely in her arms.

“Hey, run away! Aaaaaah!”

“The space is torn!”

Everyone who came to their senses late screamed and ran outside.

Except for those who passed out or collapsed, nobility, royalty, servants and maids all ran out.

The same was true of the soldiers and knights who were protecting the emperor and the nobles.

They were overwhelmed and frightened by the trail of a huge gap they had never seen before.

That was a greatness they dared not do anything about.

“Damn, what the hell is this!”

 

Theoransha, who was watching, moved first.

She drew her supernatural power to cover the gap that began to unfold with sharp lightning and wind.

Tamon also raised the power of life.

An intangible force was cohesive to close the gap.

Hartz had the ability, but he had no attack power, so there was nothing he could do other than step back and stare at the gap.

Gillotti, who collapsed from exhaustion, was no longer useful as a competent person.

Perhaps it was the result of the rampage with his power, Gillotti’s face was hollow as if it had lost both vitality and blood, and blood was pouring out of all the holes.

“Sh*t! At times like this!”

Theo spit out a curse, trying to close the gap.

Fortunately, there was only one thing: Tamon, the power of life.

Asha stared into the gap with her trembling eyes and ran to Hannah and Mana.

“Mana, give me the holy relics!”

Having received the golden cup and flute, Asha turned her head and looked at Hans, who was watching the situation without running away.

As if reading her eyes, Hans did not hesitate to take off the necklace of protection and threw it at her.

She had no time to delay.

Asha picked up the dagger beside Natasha, who was crying as if she had given up everything.

For a brief moment, their eyes met with a passing glance.

“……hell. This is my hell, right?” (Natasha)

Well, it wasn’t just her hell but everyone’s. 

Leaving the voice murmuring with derision, Asha gathered the holy relics on the floor.

As if all the holy relics had become one as they gathered together, they vibrated.

But that was all.

She didn’t know how to summon God with these vibrating relics.

But she had to know.

It was because the gap that Tamon and Theo had barely blocked was crawling wide open.

In anger, Asha clenched her teeth and slammed her fists in front of the resonating relics.

“How do you show up? How? How!”

Boom!

At that moment, a flash of light enveloped the banquet hall that had become a mess.
