The dark red divine power spread out black lines, winding upwards along Helios's divine soul.
Helios's gaze imdiately beca fierce:
"Yabaton—! Die—!"
A dazzling platinum light erupted, illuminating Helios's insanely angry eyes.
He transford his fingers into a sword, the Holy Power condensing into a Divine Sword slashing at the Blood Demon Duke blocking him.
The scorching Holy Power poured onto Yabaton like molten lava, and this Bloodline Duke, unlike Charlotte, who did not have Holy Resistance, was imdiately engulfed in platinum Holy Flas. The sinister Demon Armor on his body lted like a candle, and cracks appeared all over him.
"Your Majesty, True Ancestor—!"
Another hoarse and resolute howl.
Charlotte looked at Yabaton, who was using everything to stall Helios, with a complex expression.
That desperate figure slowly overlapped with the young demon from her mories, who had followed her through history, eager to earn her approval.
Exhaling lightly, Charlotte's expression beca determined, and the Sea King Trident in her hand burst out with a more dazzling light.
An ancient aura originating from the Primordial Era spread over the tip of the trident. Its re appearance made all who sensed it tremble, unable to resist the urge to prostrate themselves.
On the ground, ordinary people and Transcendents involuntarily kneeled, as if it was so instinct from within their soul, even the summoned demons prostrated themselves under that aura, not daring to move.
Charlotte raised the trident high and lunged directly at the fear-stricken Helios!
"No—!"
Helios let out a cry of despair.
The deities of the Mireya Continent...
Apart from their mighty power, they actually weren't much different from mortals.
Watching his terrified gaze, a strange thought inexplicably floated in Charlotte's mind.
The divine power erupted, and the radiant trident pierced through Yabaton's body, striking into Helios's chest!
Fine cracks spread over Helios's divine soul, ancient patterns on the Sea King Trident flickered, coagulating into a supre Law Will that directly shattered Helios's soul body.
Helios's gaze was filled with unwillingness, but amidst the unwillingness... it was full of venom.
He glared at Charlotte with resentnt and cursed bitterly:
"Dark Night...! I curse you! Curse you to never transcend! Curse you to lose everything!"
"Those who cherish your existence... those you cherish... will ultimately drift apart from you in your despair!"
"In all tis and spaces, you shall fall the sa way! Never to rise again!"
"I curse you... I curse you... I... curse you forever!"
As Helios's curse resounded, a bizarre and ancient power descended, and Charlotte felt as if her spiritual sense was montarily veiled, all five senses delayed for an instant, and her destiny beca a chaotic blur.
The light on Helios's body grew dimr and dimr.
His angry voice faded like the distant wind, and his golden divine soul finally shattered with a soft sound.
First the limbs, then the torso, and finally... it was his head wearing the Sun Mask.
Countless golden particles dispersed, golden rain poured down gently, while the magic power concentration in the surrounding air seemingly received a massive boost, increasing several tis in an instant, to the point where even Transcendents felt sowhat uncomfortable.
The dark clouds in the sky gradually dispersed, and the hanging Silver Moon also beca faint.
The expanse of water above the Holy City contracted, eventually transforming into a small, mysterious silver shrine adorned with exquisite inscriptions.
The illusory Silver Moon turned into a shooting star and fell from the sky.
The silver shrine fell into Charlotte's hand on its own, and the teor ford by the Silver Moon also flew into Charlotte's palm.
Charlotte looked down and saw it was a silver earring carved with exquisite Elven patterns and the Moon God's Holy Emblem.
It was the Supre Divine Artifact of the Elf Clan, Moon Dream Heart of the Moon God Artemis.
The golden sun symbols on the two artifacts also faded and eventually vanished.
Having lost its divine power, Yabaton's body fell from the sky.
But soon, he was enveloped by a crimson divine power and gently placed on the ground.
Helios's presence had completely disappeared.
This ancient Sun God, who had brought Charlotte countless troubles, fell in such an unexpected manner.
Yet Charlotte did not feel much joy.
She sensed that sothing seed to have been added to her soul, like a shackle or a shadow.
That was the curse of Helios—a curse uttered before the fall of a True God!
A curse cast with everything by a True God who had mastered the Primordial Power.
Even though he was in a divine soul state, and his power was incomplete, his curse was by no ans sothing Charlotte, now a demigod, could dispel.
"Never mind, I'll think of a solution later."
Sensing the shadow over her divine soul, Charlotte sighed and shook her head slightly.
She withdrew her gaze and then looked toward the ground.
The oppressive aura of the Sea King Trident had withdrawn, and the demons that were previously prostrated on the ground gathered around Yabaton.
Charlotte slowly descended to the ground, walking toward Yabaton.
Upon seeing her figure, the demons showed fear and quickly made way for her.
Charlotte reached the center surrounded by demons, where the Fla Demon Vararoka was half-kneeling, its nacing face filled with bewildernt.
Seeing Charlotte, it curled up in fear, but after a slight hesitation, it stubbornly blocked Charlotte's path, emitting a fierce yet timid growl.
Charlotte's expression was indescribable:
"You... although evil and foolish, causing countless mortal lives to suffer, you are loyal. You don't quite seem like a traditional demon."
With that, she sighed:
"Step aside, I... won't harm your master."
The Fla Demon Vararoka remained motionless.
Though trembling continuously, it still stood in front of Charlotte.
Until Yabaton's weak voice ca:
"Let him through... the True Ancestor... will not harm ."
Vararoka hesitated but eventually obeyed and gave way.
Charlotte withdrew her gaze and then approached Yabaton.
Yabaton was half-lying on the ground, leaning against a scorched large tree.
The demon armor on his body was almost shattered, his entire body covered with cracks, and dark red divine power was leaking incessantly.
A hideous wound was also present on his chest, through which one could see the charred tree trunk behind.
The most severe damage was to his Divine Soul.
In Charlotte's "spiritual vision," she saw Yabaton's Divine Soul almost shattered, on the brink of disintegration.
That was the injury caused by the Sea King Trident. Although Charlotte mainly targeted Helios and deliberately avoided Yabaton's Divine Soul, Yabaton, who was also pierced by the trident, could not escape the influence of the "Power of God Slaying."
"True Ancestor... Your Majesty..."
Seeing Charlotte, Yabaton extended his hand with difficulty.
"Don't move, your injuries are too severe. Let use the Bloodline Power to heal you."
Charlotte said.
With those words, she gathered radiance in her hand, forming the crimson Blood Divine Power, then pricked her finger to inject her Divine Blood Essence.
But she was stopped by Yabaton:
"True Ancestor, Your Majesty... I understand my own condition... You... should not waste your strength anymore."
Charlotte paused slightly.
She looked at Yabaton, her expression sowhat complex.
She knew what Yabaton ant.
She could also tell Yabaton's state.
Yabaton had descended through the sacrifice of another vessel, and although a divine body exchange was achieved upon descent, his state appeared abnormal, and having suffered a fatal attack from Helios, he was already extrely weak.
Now injured by the Sea King Trident's attack, entangled by the "Power of God Slaying," it is already a miracle that he did not fall like Helios.
"How would we know without trying? Even the strongest Power of Laws has a way to be resolved."
Charlotte was silent for a few seconds, then said.
With those words, without waiting for Yabaton's response, she directly infused the crimson divine power into his body.
With the crimson divine power entering his body, Yabaton's divine body began to heal, the Power of God Slaying and Bloodline Power contended with each other, and Yabaton's weak aura started to grow stronger.
But in the next mont, sothing unexpected happened.
Yabaton's aura suddenly beca chaotic and evil, strands of black crept into his eyes again, and his Divine Soul gradually took on an eerie pallor.
It was none other than the Primordial Power Charlotte was familiar with, or rather... that unsettling Primordial Power behind the eerie stone doors in the Crimson Star Sea that gave her a sense of closeness yet sent chills down her spine.
Charlotte's expression changed slightly, quickly realizing that her current actions had the opposite effect, so she hurriedly ceased the infusion of Blood Divine Power.
Without the Blood Divine Power, the "Power of God Slaying" brought by the Sea King Trident regained its dominance, starting to ravage Yabaton's Divine Soul again, and Yabaton's aura plumted instantly, the cracks on the demon armor multiplied.
However, simultaneously, that pale power trying to control him also went dormant, and Yabaton's Divine Soul stabilized again, his gaze becoming clear.
Witnessing all these changes, Charlotte was sowhat astonished:
"Yabaton, you..."
Yabaton pulled out a sowhat grim smile, weakly laughing:
"True Ancestor, Your Majesty, I'm sorry, I... ultimately let you down."
"As you can see, I eventually... couldn't resist the temptation and erosion of that power, lost myself in the pursuit, and fell into the purest darkness..."
