After the silver sword flashed, Natasha appeared behind Kritonia’s back, with a long wound on her right abdomen. The blood with certain silver purple colors flowed out. The counterattack of the power of ‘Heart of Time’ had already hurt her badly.

The wound recovered particularly slowly as if it were corrupted by time. Together with the fatigue after using a legendary item, Natasha found it impossible to stand where she was. She fell on one of her knees and supported herself with her longsword. Her hands that were wearing the transparent silk gloves trembled violently like an old man.

Kritonia, who floated in midair, seemed undamaged, except that his face was frozen, and the previous shock was still lingering there.

Suddenly, an illusionary wound that did not seem to belong to this world appeared and expanded into countless tiny cracks. In the next, blood splashed and left crimson spots on Natasha’s white wedding dress, like roses that were blossoming on snow.

As the stink of blood spread out, Kritonia heaved a sigh, and his body fell apart into countless pieces of flesh, furthering dying Natasha’s wedding dress red.

A badge hit the ground. At the center of the badge was a long river of time that surrounded a heart. It represented the glory of the Kritonia family.

The badge was enshrouded by blood, as if it were Kritonia’s last concern.

The blood glistened and dripped from the badge like flowing water, but it did not seem to be stopping anytime soon.

After another crack, the longsword, ‘Heart of Time’, fell on the grey sand. The storage bag, having lost the support of the legendary power, dropped before Natasha in monotonous black and grey.

Natasha was exhausted, and all her wounds were hurting. However, she was so excited that her soul seemed to have been melted into her blood.

“I’ve finally killed Kritonia and avenged my uncle!”

The attack seemed simple, but it weren’t for the paralysis from Lucien’s ‘Vengeful Gaze’ and Granny Hathaway’s ‘Luxury Cracking’, it wouldn’t have been possible for her to hit the enemy. If they attacked each other, she would’ve been killed for sure.

Of course, as a gold knight, Natasha also keenly recognized that she overpowered Kritonia towards the end, which slowed him down when he defended himself. Otherwise, she would’ve suffered much heavier wounds, and since she had lost all her life-preserving methods, she would die for real if she were killed!

What the attack needed to overcome was the fear of death. She had to create a path of survival by confronting it.

Lucien was relieved and did not cast his ‘Elemental Protection’ after all. It was meant to add another layer of defense to Natasha at the critical moment. He certainly wouldn’t watch his wife die.

The Lich King and the Primordial Mummy foresaw Kritonia’s ending when they saw Natasha’s attack. Therefore, instead of pursuing Hathaway who had blinked away, the Lich King chanted a weird spell.

The gems around his head were suddenly gone, and the intense greyness of death spread out, enshrouding the environment.

Then, the greyness was gone, and so were the two legendary spectres.

If they did not flee before Hathaway caught her breath, they would never be able to flee!

They could certainly make such a conclusion!

Lucien had only half of his spiritual power left after casting Vengeful Gaze four times with Hand of Uncertainties. However, he did not waste time in having drugs to recover himself, because Hathaway was no longer occupied. The Original Fire was not a big deal anymore.

In the realm of legends, a gap of two levels was already too huge to be neglected, not to mention three levels!

If Kritonia hadn’t been too old, and he had powerful assistants such as the Robe of Grand Arcanists, the Moon Timer and the Hand of Uncertainties, he would have been suppressed by Kritonia even if he attacked with Natasha.

The silence in the World of Souls was restored. The monotonous colors and the chaotic mountains were just like before. Lucien flew to Natasha, helping her get back on her feet and stopped her bleeding.

Hathaway, on the other hand, looked at the spot of Maze, waiting for it to run out.

“Deal with the Original Fire first. I’m fine.” Natasha picked up Kritonia’s storage bag and badge. Pointing at the Sword of Truth, the Heart of Time and the Shield of Truth not far away, she said, “You turn into a legendary knight and kill him with Granny Hathaway first.”

She was no longer capable of picking up any legendary item.

Lucien nodded his head and transformed. His face was now even paler. Then, with the Shield of Truth in his left hand and the Sword of Truth in his right hand, he waited for the Original Fire to break the maze.

If he were to cancel the maze himself, the Original Fire would’ve realized the new situation and escaped as fast as possible. If the guy were caged too long, he wouldn’t stay much longer after concluding that reinforcements had arrived.

Inside the maze, the Original Fire had abandoned answering the questions. He counted the time in silence while he tried to break the maze with violence.

BOOM. The maze began to shake intensely.

The Original Fire was delighted at first, but he became grim again. Almost one minute had passed. What would he be faced with?

Would he be surrounded by a bunch of legends, or would Kritonia succeed in killing Lucien and Natasha with his help?

“No, Lucien kept the secret that he became legendary. So, they must’ve been prepared. Also, Kritonia is too old to kill Lucien, unless he tricks Lucien by pretending to kill Natasha.”

“In any case, I cannot take the risk. If I were killed by the Sword of Truth, I’ll be really dead.”

Seeing that he had been caged much longer than he anticipated, he looked at the legendary staff, the legendary robe and the legendary ring he had and looked creepy. “I have to sacrifice them now!”

The excruciating pain in his heart made the Original Fire had the urge of killing himself.

Yes, he began to kill himself. A flower of pure white flames rose from his soul and burnt his body. Holding back the unimaginable pain, he controlled the progress of burning and waited for the maze to be over. In the meantime, he activated the marks in three legendary items.

The more painful it was, the more determined he was in killing!

BOOM. Cracks appeared inside the maze as it began to collapse.

The moment, the frozen black, white and grey appeared in the Original Fire’s eyes, he roared and accelerated the burning, making the three legendary items hum and shiver.

After the maze collapsed, Lucien did not see the Original Fire; he only saw a cluster of pure white fire and the expanding staff, ring and robe.

Dangerous!

Lucien blocked Natasha behind his back and extended the Shield of Truth in his left hand. The illusionary colors surfaced, as if the two of them were in a different world.

“Elemental Protection!”

Hathaway’s clear voice echoed, and countless elemental spots of light gathered.

In the next, the legendary robe, staff and ring exploded abruptly. Red, purple and yellow, three clusters of fire swept out and razed everything to the ground. Destruction, death, curse, poison, corruption and immolation destroyed all the things on the way.

Despite the Shield of Truth, Lucien could only keep Natasha safe under such a terrible storm and could not press forward. He was unable to slash the Original Fire who was at the center of explosions.

The white fire that was vaguely in the shape of a human howled painfully and angrily:

“I won’t let go of you!”

“I’ll stuff the quizzes into your mouth!”

Then, an illusionary sound that seemed to be from a different world echoed: “Advanced Time Stop.”

Black, red, purple, green and all the colors were gone. Lucien saw nothing but a frozen world. Only Natasha and him who were behind the Shield of Truth could move slowly, but they could not interact with the outside world.

After the consolidation was gone, a brilliant shooting star hit the center of the explosions brutally.

“NO!”

The Original Fire cried miserably. Then, his voice came to an abrupt halt with the boom.

The sweeping explosion attacked with the air that could tear apart time and space, but Lucien held the Shield of Truth steadily, preventing himself and Natasha from being hurt. There were only minor cracks on the shield, which could be repaired easily.

It was indeed the best space-time defense!

“Mr. President, has the Original Fire died?” After the explosion, Lucien asked Douglas and Fernando who had blinked to him.

He did not expect the Original Fire to be so decisive. The guy almost escaped.

Douglas nodded his head, but he was still somewhat confused. “His soul should’ve been completely destroyed after it was hit by my ‘Fateful Meteor’, but he seemed to be connected to the World of Souls in a certain way. I’m afraid that he may have other backup plans. However, there’s no way that he can resume his strength as a legend any time soon.”

“The World of Souls has intervened, too... We need to accelerate the exploration in this place in case the scheme worked out.” Fernando feared that part of the members of the Church would collude with the World of Souls.

Hathaway flew over from the other side. She wasn’t really hurt. Looking at Lucien in confusion, she asked, “The questions in the maze?”

The Original Fire recited the questions at the end. It seemed that he had been traumatized.

His lips twitching, Lucien spoke of the few unproven speculations.

Douglas frowned. “Those questions...” He couldn’t think of an answer, either.

“Do you have answers? How can you construct the maze if you don’t have answers?” Asked Fernando in a loud voice.

Lucien smiled. “The answers to part of the questions are that they can’t be proven for now. That the questions can be changed was meant to be misleading.”

If the questions were too complicated or ambiguous, he could’ve got the answers from asking the mysterious existence with magic.

Natasha chuckled. “If he heard the answer, the Original Fire would be infuriated back to life again.”

At this moment, she was holding Kritonia’s storage bag and skimming through the journal inside.

Hathaway, Douglas and Fernando did not say anything, but they were apparently thinking the same thing.

Suddenly, Natasha smiled as she read the journal. “The Original Fire was studying arcana and looking for a way to reshape his cognitive world.”

Lucien was briefly stunned. “Huh? He was studying arcana? I should’ve put the experiment of electron diffraction inside the maze. In that case, his legendary items would be mine, and he would have no chance of resurrection...” Any other disruptive experiments could’ve worked. He felt extremely pitiful that he obtained none of the three legendary items!

“Haha. Evans’ Head-Blowing Maze?” Natasha was greatly amused by the creative idea.

Hathaway looked at Lucien, her eyes flashing. They were obviously saying:

“How insane!”
