Chapter 567 - Battle Of Doom (1)
It was just breakfast together, but Dylan occasionally stole glances to stare at Elysia. He still kind of couldn\'t believe that he mistook that human girl for his late wife, who might be revived temporarily.
Sophia noticed her crush\'s small movement. She stared at that black-haired human girl with some jealousy in her eyes because she felt insecure.
When breakfast was over, Dylan took out a black mystery box and made it land in front of Elysia. "It\'s a form of appreciation and my gratitude for some of the factors that you have done for us."
"..." Elysia looked at the box, somewhat confused. She looked at Sylvia, then at Elena.
"Pssh... Ely, just accept that. Why are you feeling hesitant?" Sylvia spoke in a whisper-like voice.
"Uhm, then, I\'ll take your appreciation." Elysia simply put the black mystery box into her Space Bag without hesitation because she knew there were no dangerous items there. Her advanced perception convinced her of it.
"Very well... Are you all going now?" Dylan leaned back in his seat to stare at everyone.
"Yup, we\'ll be leaving soon, but the fire hen won\'t be coming with us." Sylvia smiled sweetly.
"Hey, you don\'t have to exclude me for the obvious." Sophia didn\'t take that joke to heart.
"Understood. We also hope to see the Accursed God fall. That way, the burden we will all bear in the great war will be greatly reduced by the destruction of the enemy\'s God." Dylan nodded in understanding.
"Let\'s wish everyone the best." Nell took the input casually.
After that, Sylvia said goodbye to her father with some parting words. It was like a girl going on an adventure with her parent\'s blessing for the first time.
Although a bit heavy-hearted, Dylan could only escort his daughter away with acceptance. He looked at the departing carriage with a somewhat relieved look. Maybe, his daughter could be happier in the safe protection when she was with that divine group.
"Are you reluctant to let your daughter go, my lord?" Sophia asked in a tender tone.
"My daughter has grown into a big girl. She can take care of herself and knows what she needs to do. It will be much more secure for her if she stays with them." Dylan turned around after the carriage suddenly disappeared into invisibility.
"Hehe, you didn\'t do that because you wanted to establish good connections and relations with divine beings through your daughter, right?" Sophia followed closely behind.
"Everything can happen not just because of one reason alone. You may not be able to see my profound insight yet." Dylan walked into his palace.
Meanwhile, Elysia and her group had just left devil\'s capital city. They immediately flew off towards the mysterious island in the northeast direction from their position.
"Do you feel something unexpected is about to happen, Lynn?" Sylvia suddenly asked as she was staring at her hometown, which seemed to be getting smaller and smaller until it was out of sight.
"I can\'t predict anything. We mortals can\'t get involved in the affairs of divinity. I don\'t feel sure about my foreboding or divination abilities, but my heart feels a little restless for unknown reasons." Lynn put her hand on her upper chest while looking down.
Elysia then looked at Evelyn, Ella, Yuuki, Vanessa, and the others. She could see they looked a little uneasy, much like Lynn.
"Why feel uneasy? Are you doubting something? I\'ll be there with you all later to ensure your safety. Let\'s wish goodness and victory to our side with confidence." Elena tried to lighten the mood with a confident declaration.
With that being said, the girls immediately shook their heads at Elysia\'s master. They knew the hidden meaning behind those words, and their attitude could lead to their poor faith.
Rhea, Nell, and Oceanid only ignored that as they were busy reviewing their strategy. They made several master plans and backups to deal with the unexpected.
At that moment, a raft was floating in the wide ocean, which was surprisingly very calm. A black and gray body with black glasses was above it. He was sitting relaxed on a wooden chaise longue as if he was sunbathing under the morning sun.
"What made them come so late? It\'s already around nine o\'clock here, right? It\'s been more than three hours since sunrise." Xero looked at the sun to determine the current time. He was already waiting there since sunrise.
Right after he said that he could see a flying carriage had just arrived and landed on an island about twenty kilometers from his current location.
"Oh, they\'ve finally come." Xero shrugged his shoulders and got up from his seat.
Nell was aware of the Evil God but only cared a little. She needed to make sure everything went well.
"Please wait for us here." Nell then looked at Elena. "Please protect everyone and seal the area outside the zone."
"I understand. You will all be fighting within the layered barrier that I will set up later. Just don\'t forget to use that Aurora Crystal. You can go all out there with no worries." Elena nodded slightly.
"..." Rhea didn\'t say anything, but she said many things via telepathy to Elysia.
\'We understand. My master and I will intervene if it is necessary. As you say, we need to ensure that the Accursed God falls before he wreaks havoc on this world. But, please pay attention to your own safety. You mean a lot... Please be careful.\' Elysia answered with a tender smile and concerned gaze.
\'Understood. I will do my best. It may not be an easy battle, but I\'m sure we\'ll win.\' Rhea felt happy and confident after getting attention and a morale boost from Elysia.
After getting a nod from Elysia, Rhea said the same thing to Elena. She wanted to hear the words of her two masters before she plunged into battle.
Rhea looked at her hands for a moment, then she immediately summoned her divine dress. Three pairs of beautiful turquoise wings appeared on her back, and golden-turquoise particles instantly enveloped her to transform her clothes into her divine dress.
Rhea looked at Nell and Oceanid. They were already clad in their divine equipment, ready to fight the accursed. "Let\'s go."
"Ouh, victory is upon us." Nell raised her hand is high.
"See you later girls." Oceanid waved his hand.
The three flew into the sky and headed straight for the island sealed under the sea.
Elysia simply clasped her hands in prayer, and the others soon followed her to send their prayers for the victory of the divine beings who protected their world.
At that moment, Elena stretched out her hand and placed a layered dome barrier around the group. She then stared far into the distance to wait for Nell to get into position.
As soon as Nell threw a lump of Aurora Crystal into the sea, Elena immediately used her magic to trigger imagination magic to set up a gigantic dome layered barrier.
\'Phew, now all in position. I hope that the Accursed God can be completely annihilated.\' Elena put her hand on her upper chest.
For some reason, she felt even more uneasy, as if something bad might happen soon. Even so, she could only ward off all these possibilities with precautions.
"Hou~ You\'re quite late. But, what did you throw just now? Was that what triggered the formation of this dome barrier? Where are sun and the human girl?" Xero looked up at the three divine beings in the sky, then examined a lump of aurora sparkling stone at the bottom of the sea.
"Sun? It\'s in the sky over there." Nell pointed at the bright sun above.
"The Goddess of Light. Where are she and her precious disciple now? Are only the three of you going to get involved in this divine-class battle?" Xero frowned as he felt the lack of combat power and guarantee of annihilating the Accursed God.
"You underestimate us? The Goddess of Light and her precious disciples will step in when the situation becomes unfavorable. We have the Anti Curse Mechanism that will greatly help us to fight the Accursed God." Rhea narrowed her eyes and gave a signal for Oceanid to bring the island back to the surface.
It was just a swing of the hand from the bottom up. A flood of water suddenly popped up like a water dome to gradually bring the island back to the surface.
"Anti Curse Mechanism? You mean that annoying stick?" Xero pursed his lips as he could still clearly remember how Nell threw a prank at him a few days ago.
"Yeah, we\'ll be fighting in some special areas that are free of curse energy. You won\'t be able to use your curse magic in certain areas either. Beware the backlash if you enter those areas." Nell gave a gentle reminder.
"Hmph! Even if you have thousands of sticks like that, it won\'t hinder my absolute power." Xero raised his fist and flew into the sky.
By the time the island arose, Oceanid revoked his seal magic. He then threw several long silver-gold magic wands at several spots on the island.
"The Anti Curse Mechanism will activate in five seconds. Please remember, we will be launching a finishing blow on the island to ensure the Accursed God\'s complete annihilation." Oceanid announced.
"Yeah, the sealed areas down there have all been destroyed. Our opponent is not just one Accursed God, but a horde of accursed creatures as well." Rhea heaved a sigh after checking the situation far below through the big hole in the island\'s center.
*Boom!* *Boom!*
Several explosions occurred underground, a high-vibration earthquake shook the entire island, and a black mist full of negative energy emerged from the ground.
"Keke, they\'re coming. This is going to be a lot of fun." Xero punched his palm with a wide grin.
"Keke, hahaha! After being sealed for so long, the power of this world\'s God has finally reached its limit. Haha, keke!" Creepy laughter echoed like a disastrous spell.
Black mud oozed out from the big hole, hundreds of accursed creatures took turns running out, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.
The sun seemed to lose its luster, the ocean lost its color, and the air lost transparency. Everything slowly turned black because of the thick negative energy confined within the dome barrier.
In the center of the black mud, an existence slowly formed a human with dark black hair, dull-white eyes, and pale gray skin.
He looked up at the four divine beings in the sky with a wide grin on his face.. However, his expression immediately changed as he failed to spot the whereabouts of his two most serious threats in the previous battle.
