Serene Will slowly cuts through Unlimited Stream's body, embedding her desire to erase the past in each of her attacks. Regardless of Unlimited Stream's suffering or the words he spoke, she rely mocked him, just as he had mocked her monts before.
It has been a while since she felt such a heartbeat emanating from her chest. As if it were the first ti dreaming and seeing her desires fulfilled, she feels butterflies in her stomach.
"Once I kill them all, the Unquenchable Fire Brothel will be next."
"P- Please spare my life--"
Without rcy, she continues slicing his body until at so point, she no longer senses life from this sack of flesh. Unlimited Stream has died without her realizing it. Despite this, she does not feel happy in any way.
She only satisfied part of the need.
Serene Will feels a warmth coursing through her body. This is not due to the corpse sliced into small pieces of flesh nor the joy of advancing her goal, but rather the increase in level. The tenacity of those won was surprising, even in the face of their severe wounds, they managed to survive longer than she ever imagined.
Only now does the level increase for killing three level 700 hunters beco present.
“Hah... Just forty levels.”
She expected more. Much more. She thought that perhaps this level increase would solve the problem that is currently unfolding over her head, that it would give her the opportunity to fight against hunters of a much higher level.
But those won were prostitutes who acquired their level through gifts from their clients, it’s impossible that their lives an anything. In the cycle of life and death, these three prostitutes held no value.
In comparison, that receptionist had a much more interesting and fruitful life.
“It’s useless to continue further.”
At so point, Coldness Divine appears by her side and clicks her tongue upon seeing the portal just seconds from activating.
“I will return to the past, I don't want to die at their hands.”
She pulls out a fan from her storage ring and sighs. She does not wish to die helping the first wife, but this is sothing her husband tasked her with. If it's for him, she will do it.
“Coldness Divine... What do you think you’re doing?”
But a hand stops her from committing suicide.
“There’s so little left to glimpse my sword way. If I fight them... I might find the enlightennt necessary to turn it into words. Words that you will deliver to my past self and reverse the outco.”
For a mont she thought Serene Will cared about her, how naive she was.
Coldness Divine snorts. “Ha! You and I are nothing, human. You should be thankful I’m doing this for you, do you think I like dying for your sake? I agreed to return to the past because I saw sothing that benefited , but don’t force to go further. Our relationship is so fragile that it can easily break.”
Contrary to expectations, Serene Will does not step back.
Even when she knows what that ans.
“You are the one who doesn’t understand.”
Serene Will gets so close to her that she can practically hear her breathing. “If you don’t give it your all now, how do you expect us to continue this?”
There is a factor that only she has considered.
“Your clients are the most dangerous. Being a dragon attracted big shots that we can hardly lay a finger on. Put in the effort, Coldness Divine, because no matter how fractured our relationship may be, there will always be sothing that unites us.”
Upon considering this, Coldness Divine clenches her teeth. As long as they are wives of the sa man, this discussion will repeat over and over. The only difference is that the sender and recipient will change each ti if they don't resolve this now.
Coldness Divine sighs and tries to forget what happened. "As soon as you obtain it, let know. I'll return at that very mont."
"Thank you..." Upon receiving the response she wanted, Serene Will distances herself from her. "And sorry for putting you through this."
“…”
Coldness Divine pays no heed to her apologies, because after today, only she will rember them. Perhaps… Perhaps this is one of the reasons why she fell in love with Lawrence. Because that human always assisted her in her regressions, preferring to die by her hand than in those of any other.
“They’re coming.”
With the words of Sky Petal, the portal lights up completely. The next instant, hundreds of hunters cross the portal and hover in the air. All of them organized in extensive rows, with their magic artifacts adorning their bodies elegantly.
One of them positions himself at the front. Their leader, a level 700 hunter. After him, the levels vary between 600 and 680.
An impossible campaign to overco for Serene Will, Sky Petal, and Coldness Divine.
“I am Immortal Wanderer, elder of the Sacred Summit Sect of the Immortal Radiance Kingdom.”
His words descend causing an unimaginable pressure. If Serene Will previously thought about extending the battle for as long as possible, this ti she knows she must sacrifice sothing to even be able to lift her sword.
“Due to the close relationship with the Heavenly Path Kingdom, I ask…”
Immortal Wanderer observes without expression on his face the corpse on the ground. “Who among you killed him? We will only take the life of the murderer, the affairs of this kingdom do not concern us.”
They can ignore the massacre that occurred on the grounds of this mansion, but there is one exception to the rule. The murderer of Unlimited Stream must die.
“Serene Will, ancestor of the Acacia Kingdom.”
She presents herself without any fear. Imdiately her sword begins to harbor an extraordinary phenonon, an unfinished Way.
She steps forward and says: “If this criminal is the cause of our enmity, so be it.”
Sky Petal looks at Serene Will with sorrow in her eyes. She wants to stop her, to prevent that image from repeating, but unlike then, this is her decision.
It’s the decision of Serene Will to sacrifice her Way once more.
“I understand, you are the murderer…”
Immortal Wanderer directs his gaze at one of his n and then nods.
“Kill her.”
Hundreds of rankers above level 600 fly towards them. Sky Petal and Coldness Divine have remained silent until this mont, knowing that the board is not in their favor and that they must play their cards despite what this ans.
If this day will never happen, then they wish to witness their own Ways just like her.
A prestige of sacrifice erges from their bodies almost at the sa instant, their sword, their fan, and their plants acquiring this property. The demonstration of their Ways in fullness.
“Every flow influences the course.”
But then… the battle stops.
Ti stops.
“The condition for the next step is you, how unexpected.”
No one can move, everything is annulled.
The three of them watch in terror as a woman arrives, who not only is not on their side but even Immortal Wanderer begins to tremble upon noticing her. This woman belongs to a third faction, she easily can kill everyone present if she wishes. They are re toys before her presence.
Regardless of her celestial beauty, her beautiful blue hair, her exquisite body shaped like porcelain. Her re presence causes terror in those who observe her.
She has demonstrated her Way successfully, achieving a level impossible to reach.
The unknown woman says: "I cannot allow you to return to the past, but neither can I let all of you sacrifice your Ways in this place."
Immortal Wanderer opens his eyes widely after understanding the reason for her appearance. He wishes he could move his lips and express that, they can forget everything, that it’s not necessary for a ranker to take action. That the contract with Unlimited Stream wasn’t that important, that they can easily do without him, that they do not want to lose their lives and that they will never again look these three huntresses in the eye.
But such a thing is impossible. That woman does not grant him the opportunity to beg for his life.
In a reddish cloud, Immortal Wanderer and his n, die without expressing their lant.
“Yes, this is what I was waiting for.”
That woman closes her eyes and smiles warmly.
At the next mont, Serene Will, Sky Petal, and Coldness Divine feel a pressure from a remote place. A presence is there, which takes a step forward generating waves in the environnt. They cannot fully perceive it, it’s forbidden for soone without approval to witness it.
Blood begins to flow from all their pores, this is the secondary effect of witnessing this extraordinary phenonon. At this rate, they really will die.
“That is my reward. Understand it slowly.”
The woman returns to her senses and a single movent of her hand is enough to prevent Serene Will and company from losing their lives for witnessing sothing they are still far from reaching.
They manage to regain control of their bodies and with that, questions arise.
“Who is the esteed ranker?”
Coldness Divine greets politely, sothing unheard of among dragons. Perhaps that is why the other party decides to respond.
“I am Imperishable Night, level 999.”
Coldness Divine imdiately holds her breath. Did she speak to a Supre Ranker? She knew she herself was arrogant, but not that much! No one in their right mind would attempt to speak with a ranker of level 999, that’s simply courting death!
“One of you has an unparalleled destiny, otherwise, I wouldn’t be here.”
Imperishable Night looks at each of them trying to discover who allowed her to take the next step, when for centuries she couldn't advance. Unfortunately, she cannot find anything. Whatever their destiny, it is not yet fulfilled.
“In the future rember that I did you a favor, I’ll be waiting for you to reach that place.”
Her smile is angelic, even though they have a husband, they cannot help but blush under the gaze of Imperishable Night. This effect disappears the mont they lose track of that woman.
Just as she appeared, Imperishable Night vanished.
They fall to the ground with their faces pale.
“What just happened?”
Such a simple question cannot acquire an answer. The events that occurred in this short instance have completely changed their perspective. They believed that no one had previously reached level 999, a fact that has just been disproven.
Supre rankers exist, but they have been hidden from the world.
“I’ll gather the valuable items and the corpses, anwhile, you search the mansion. The plants ntioned seeing sothing shine before the portal was activated, there being a magic formation is the only explanation for a portal having been temporarily created.”
As soon as the rankers entered, the portal disappeared. It’s a magic... a magic of large-scale transportation of which they have never heard. If they could replicate it-- No, even if they managed to find a way to interfere with it, they would have acquired unparalleled knowledge.
“Serene Will, co look at this.”
In their search through the mansion and surroundings, it is Coldness Divine who first finds sothing interesting.
“Sky Petal was right, there’s a hidden magic formation in the ground.”
