Her attractive crimson eyes gazed at Azther with pride. With the vision she just had, she understood that there were beings unimaginably stronger than the ugly creature in front of her.

Right now, even though his body was destined to become one with the fire element. She wasn't the least bit nervous or sad.

Since, for her, every second of her life had been lived to the fullest without regrets, always firm in her ideals and personality!

Ettandra looked at her spear, which had ten rings of fire on the shaft of it.

She recalled the ability of that fire god-like being and quickly fused all ten rings into one ring hundreds of times stronger!

"!?"

Azther felt how the little being of fire that was stabbing him with a spear suddenly increased her power to a level where she was seriously injuring him!

Bang!

Ettandra, who was beginning to reach her limits, used every last drop of fire elemental power in her body and unexpectedly formed another ring of fire, just like the one she created by combining the ten smaller rings of fire.

Boom!

Azther's entire body was pushed several hundred meters, and all his eyes saw was an ocean of crimson fire covering everything.

Lanaery, with an anxious expression and tears of light falling from her eyes, watched as Ettandra disappeared.

"I-it's ready."

Heaven's Light's voice was faintly heard from inside the massive light sword in Lanaery's hands.

Since the start of this battle against Azther and the Ghost of a Thousand Poisons, only a little over five minutes had passed.

But to Lanaery, these five minutes felt like an eternity. She had to watch again as more of her friends died in front of her eyes. Lanaery had already lost count of how many times her power had not been enough to save those she loved.

It was the same this time.

To protect her, these heroes, who had the strength to run away from him if they couldn't win, had no choice but to sacrifice their bodies and their lives to give her more time to finish absorbing the world's divine power.

She finally got it, but... Again, she was the only one left alive.

"Thank you for everything, my precious friend. I'm really sorry for not being stronger."

Lanaery said, looking at Ettandra with tear-filled eyes.

"?"

Ettandra, her consciousness darkening, strained to see Lanaery after hearing her beautiful voice.

She saw that Lanaery had already finished absorbing all the Sacred Origin divine power. Which caused her to feel incredibly relieved.

Only his head remained, which was slowly turning into precious crimson flames.

She smiled and tried to speak. But her voice stopped working, so she, with her lips, said, "Goodbye, Lana... Teach this ugly bastard that he should never have come into our world."

With these last words, Ettandra disappeared completely, leaving only an ocean of crimson flames attacking Azther.

"That's just what I'm going to do!"

Lanaery perfectly understood what Ettandra said.

With a body made of light that measured hundreds of thousands of meters in length. She jumped up and swung her light sword, intending to cut Azther in two!

Slash!

"You are too weak to face an evil god!"

Azther yelled in fury, but he was actually incredibly scared by Lanaery's power!

Bang!

He created a massive barrier of poison that tried to take all the damage from Lanaery's divine sword.

Crack!

As if this barrier was made of paper, Lanaery's sword broke through it effortlessly!

"I can't accept this. I won't accept it!"

Azther, using all his abilities, tried to slow down the light sword's movement.

Unfortunately, even creating poison orbs the size of a city. They were still being ripped apart, mercilessly, unable to even hold on for a second!

He watched in slow motion as Lanaery's sword moved closer to his body. Memories of Azther flashed through his mind with incredible speed.

From the day he was born. When his parents, corrupted by the dark element of their universe, tried to kill him.

When he looked at his little tentacles stained with the blood of his parents.

The day he became a Demigod after slaughtering an entire race. The precise moment when that powerful Evil God gave him that universal treasure that helped him become an Evil God.

Finally, after striving for countless years to become known as the Evil God of Despair...

Now.

His life was going to be taken by a woman who controlled an element that must have disappeared millions of years ago from this universe!

"Die."

Slash!

Lanaery's sword cut his body in two, and instantly the divine power began to destroy his body as if it was being burned!

"Noooo!"

Azther only had time to scream one last time until his body was consumed by infinite white light.

Extinguishing the last spark of life from his existence.

Sigh...

Lanaery sighed deeply with relief.

Her giant body, made of light, began to fade.

Actually, if she had taken a little longer to kill Azther, her real body might have exploded.

If that had happened, Azther would still be alive, and the sacrifice of all living beings of the Sacred Origin would have been in vain.

Fortunately, she didn't hesitate and attacked with all that divine power, using that giant body of divine light to increase the speed with which she attacked.

After a few seconds, Lanaery's body slowly fell from the sky.

In the process, every last trace of divine power disappeared from her body.

Her golden hair returned to its original color. Now it was completely black. Her beautiful white pupils darkened to a dark golden color.

"Goodbye, Saintess..."

Crack!

Heaven's Light, her divine sword, also shattered into countless fragments, turning into points of light. The only thing left was a colorless crystal that disappeared inside her body.

Her armor of light disappeared, as she had no divine power within her to continue supplying it with power.

Finally, her High Hero realm was lowered to the Novice Hero realm. With that, her elemental perception that was the source of her abilities was chained by countless chains made of all the elements.

The worst thing was that in the process, her hero heart was almost destroyed.

Before, in her hero heart was a light sword that was constantly bathed in golden rain. Now only a completely black broken sword remained.

Seeing the condition of her body as she fell, Lanaery only smiled bitterly.

Although she was not sad about the state of her body, since considering the height from which she fell, and without divine power, her death was inevitable.

Lanaery saw the beautiful stars that formed all kinds of constellations.

In the end, she slowly closed her eyes, waiting for her death.

Bang!

Crack! Crack! Crack!

Suddenly, Lanaery heard a loud sound coming from above.

She looked at the source of the sound and was surprised to notice that there was a massive multi-colored hole in the middle of the place where her sword cut Azther!

Surrounding this multi-colored hole, there were hundreds of shards that looked like broken glass that had the image of the starry sky that she was seeing a few seconds ago.

"?"

Lanaery soon realized that her body had stopped falling, or to be more clear... Everything had stopped moving as if time had stopped.

Woosh!

From inside this multicolored hole came a semi-transparent gray hand that reached out to Lanaery until it carefully placed her in the center of its giant palm.

This hand closed, leaving Lanaery inside as if protected by a gray barrier.

She only saw how this hand took her inside that multicolored hole.

Her pretty golden eyes took one last look at the Sacred Origin, which was desolate and lifeless.

At the center of the Sacred Origin, the Elemental Core watched everything of this in bewilderment. The state of its body was completely different from before. Now it seemed like he was going to die at any moment.

"So that was the space and time warp I felt just now…"

Its voice faded away, leaving Sacred Origin in absolute silence.

----------------

Inside the multi-colored hole.

Lanaery was in a state of extreme confusion.

She, though, was not afraid at all since she had been prepared to die at any moment for a long time, and now that she had killed Azther, she cared much less about her death.

With her pretty golden eyes, she saw that the surroundings looked like the inside of a whirlpool of water, only instead of water, there were infinite amounts of elements spinning in a circle.

These elements were so grouped that they looked like turbulent colored water.

She looked at what was out of these elements.

Her eyes widened in genuine surprise as she saw unspeakably enormous beings trying to attack her.

But for some reason, its attacks with the force to destroy planets did not come close to this whirlwind of elements, as if the true distance between her and these beings was incalculable.

Apart from these beings with horrible intentions to kill.

She saw prosperous worlds surrounded by rectangular-shaped metal creatures that fired blue bolts that destroyed everything in their path!

She also saw peaceful worlds and others destroyed.

What surprised her the most of what she saw was a massive golden tree so big that its leaves could cover dozens of planets!

The extraordinary thing was that this tree was floating in a chaotic space where anything apart from the tree was devoured and shattered.

After a long time, or that was what Lanaery felt as she was inside this whirlpool of elements.

She saw that she was approaching a multicolored door with strange white symbols that opened slowly.

At the precise moment when she was about to enter inside this mysterious door.

An extreme chill invaded her body, making her feel like she was going to die at any moment.

"!"

Her eyes looked in the direction where this feeling of death was coming from, and she was startled to see hundreds of red pupils that formed two gigantic pupils.

These eyes looked at her indifferently, as if it was looking at a small ant.

Thus, with the look of that terrifying being. Lanaery stepped inside the door, which instantly closed.

"..."

"God of Space and Time... Why is there a trace of his power when he already died millions of years ago?"

"...Although it doesn't matter either, what harm can a dead god do to me?"

With this voice that came from that terrifying being.

The whirlpool of elements disappeared.
