On the stage, darkness dissipates and sunlight pours down.
Amidst the glow, a dazzling field of flowers blooms. To rember the grace of the Siren Princess, the little fairies have built a brand-new statue using soil and crystal.
It is of a maiden with a fishtail. With one hand she gently holds a delicate model ship, while the other boldly hoists a massive battle axe, its blade pointing forward, swallowing mountains and rivers.
Finally, as light and shadow weave, the little fairies join hands and begin to whirl, their figures gradually fading.
The light wanes, and all scenes turn illusory, leaving only silent reverberations echoing.
The stage falls silent.
"—Good!" Star Kindness Cardinal finally couldn't suppress the emotions he had been trying so hard to contain, turning them into an excited shout.
Yet his desperate cry didn't seem abrupt; it was only drowned out by the thunderous applause already filling the scene.
Unlike the other spectators imrsed in the performance, the Cardinal's fervor wasn't entirely derived from the spectacle's brilliance.
"The regeneration ritual... succeeded! Despite just being an experint, not directly intersecting with the Netherworld, there's no doubt, my design is flawless!"
In his youthful appearance, his eyes sparkled brilliantly, completely unlike soone in their twilight years from whom a surge of magic power burst forth, attracting the attention of the Dragon Emperor and Birdman President in the VIP seats.
Indeed, though they disappeared, neither the flower field nor the statue were illusions—they will genuinely remain on the far Antarctic Continent, as an imprint of the stage's resonance.
Originally, according to the plan, this regenerated land should have been directly embedded into the Netherworld's earth. Even if it might be re-eroded to death later, rely recording the experint's success is enough.
But plans can't keep up with changes—the Saintess's overly formidable presence caused violent rejection by the Netherworld's laws even before the stage switch.
Thus, it wasn't that this stage was projected into the Netherworld, but rather the Netherworld took advantage of the weakened world barrier and proactively floated part of its space up here.
Though the space overlap phenona appeared the sa, from a magical standpoint the sequence bore profound significance.
Ultimately, relying on her indescribable barbaric strength, the Saintess forcibly drove away the Lord of Demons and rigidly healed the Netherworld.
However, this purified space likely won't linger in the Netherworld.
It will be segnted by the world, like a piece of floating ice, rising decades ahead to the present world's Antarctica.
Originally, Heroes were supposed to enter the Netherworld and attempt to heal a land in a relatively soft manner... but now she forcibly tore off a piece of the Netherworld.
It was due to the Netherworld's initial actions that this feat could be accomplished.
Imagine reaching into soone else's pocket and having your hand cut off—perhaps it's more intuitive this way?
Though the process was sowhat rough, the result turned out even better than he had imagined.
rely finding this marker in Antarctica and further suppressing or even interfering with the Netherworld is not re fantasy.
anwhile, in the VIP seats,
As a representative of the rmaid Clan, the rightful Siren Princess of today was even clapping her hands red.
[Siren Princess's blue tone depth (higher is deeper)]
D100=76 (Deep Blue)
Her deep blue, as profound as the ocean, long hair and eyes are now gleaming brightly with excitent.
After the Dreaming Girl promised to retreat, the Hero learned the Brotherhood Cardinal was already negotiating with the rmaid Clan regarding migration, hoping they could move back near the sea, or settle near the Isolated Island.
In reality, it was a hope to officially bring the rmaid Clan under the Kingdom's protection, or rather dominance.
Many would think rmaids live in the Deep Sea, as most cannot transform perfect legs like the Siren Princess, so rmaids don't need land.
But just as humans live on land but instinctively gravitate towards water sources, choosing places with lakes and rivers to survive.
For rmaids, the sun and air on the sea aren't exactly survival needs but are indispensable. Almost no rmaid would choose to stay in the sunless Deep Sea, especially after Nightmares appeared.
So even if unable to live long on land, rmaids often choose to reside near island and continental coasts.
Before moving away due to Nightmares, there were many records of rmaid observations near the Kingdom's coast.
The impact of the ten-year Holy War hasn't dissipated yet, and social rejection towards alien races still exists within the Kingdom.
Though due to the Hero, many Demons can openly enter and exit the Holy City, it is far from enough.
Today's performance, undoubtedly a shot of adrenaline.
The public's acceptance of rmaids will certainly soar, further influencing attitudes towards other Abnormal People and Demons.
The Church doesn't expect to imdiately normalize alien race treatnt within the Kingdom, for the concept clashes between species won't vanish, and vampires are still seen as evil Magic Creatures.
Nevertheless, change is tangibly occurring and happening.
Saintess Vest's descent now pushes the country forward.
Yet, after the stage returned to darkness, this much-captivated Saintess herself didn't look very satisfied.
Though it seed like she delivered a blow to the Lord of Demons, it didn't truly amount to a confrontation.
The power of the Lord of Demons hadn't fully descended, and she dared not unleash the Sea Shrimp's full strength.
