Katarina screamed shrilly, blood gushing from her mouth, eyes, and ears, dripping onto her white robes like vibrant red flowers blooming in the snow. Luther's malicious Curse had taken effect, and the Sequence 3 Demoness was suffering greatly.

Taking advantage of her momentary distraction, the Storm surrounding Luther intensified further. The raging air currents tore and grinded against each other, transforming into hundreds of extremely sharp wind blades, which then shot towards her!

A barrage of wind blades tore through the air, completely engulfing Katarina's beautiful body amidst a series of sharp explosions. Her limbs were easily severed, scattered into several pieces in the air, only to be further fragmented by the ensuing wind blades...

"Crack..."

However, when the "White Saint's" body was cut open, a crisp cracking sound rang out.

Her limbs and Flesh were all turned into fragments of the ice mirror, and she herself had vanished without a trace!

Where did they hide?

Luther was alert and was about to activate his ability to Destruction all the mirrors in the area when suddenly, "Cough cough!"

A sharp itch shot through his lungs, and he coughed violently involuntarily. A sweet, metallic taste rose in his throat, and he immediately vomited blood. The crimson blood fell onto the ice, instantly creating a Fog. Almost simultaneously, he felt a high fever, profuse sweating, and difficulty breathing, as if he were extremely ill.

"Plague"!

The pathogens released by the Sequence 3 Demoness were terrifying. Luther's symptoms had just begun to appear when they rapidly deteriorated, evolving into a life-threatening condition in just a few seconds.

"Whee..."

The Storm continued to rage, whipping up countless ice floes. Katarina's girlish laughter echoed, but her true form was nowhere to be found.

She was waiting for Luther's downfall.

But Luther simply raised his head coldly. His eyes, which had been bloodshot from illness, were now filled with a dazzling light. It wasn't the molten gold of Dragon, but a clearer, purer, and brighter radiance.

In other words, like sunlight.

"Ahem... God brings light to the world."

Suppressing a cough, Luther raised his arms high towards the sky in a gesture of praise, as if embracing a divine gift. "The Sun, like a warrior, joyfully marches forth from one side of the sky and circles to the other, and nothing can be hidden from its heat..."

As he prayed, pure and clear light emanated from his body, illuminating everything around him.

The light dispelled all impurities, the Storm ceased, the dark clouds dissipated, and even the darkness emanating from Luther himself recoiled at his feet. The Filth viruses from the Demoness had nowhere to hide; in this pure light, they were completely evaporated and dried up.

The Sun Pathway, "The Unshadowed," "The Unshadowed Domain!"

After advancing to Sequence 4, Luther's powers were further enhanced. He not only gained authority from the "Sun" Pathway, but the highest level he could use also reached Sequence 4. The light he was releasing at this moment was the powerful ability of Sequence 4 Unshadowed. The light radiating from him created a Darkness-Free Kingdom, which had a great suppressive effect on abilities related to darkness and Filth!

"Click, click!"

Bathed in intense light and heat, countless ice blocks collapsed and dissipated. Luther's Plague had long been cured. He squinted his eyes, increased his Spirituality output, and allowed the clear area to continue to expand, gradually covering the entire ice surface.

Finally, Katarina appeared.

Bathed in such clear light, her beautiful face revealed extreme pain; her fair skin writhed as if it were about to melt. She moved swiftly, wanting to leave this uncomfortable area of light as quickly as possible.

Gotcha!

Luther immediately raised his hand, and the radiance within his domain rapidly gathered in his palm, quickly condensing into a pure and blazing white spear. That spear was incomparably pure, as if it were composed entirely of sunlight!

He gripped the spear and hurled it towards the "White Saint's" back. She was the only Filth in this world; there was no need to aim, the spear was already firmly locked onto her!

"Boom!"

In an instant, the spear traversed the vast distance between them and struck Katarina directly.

It instantly expanded, transforming into a miniature Sun, burning and radiating light above the sea.

"Sizzle..."

Steam rose, and the light was dazzling, reflecting the Sun in the sky. The sacred flames were enough to completely burn away all the Filth within. There was no longer any mirror on the sea surface where Katarina could hide. The Demoness's Filth body was gradually Purification within the sphere of light until it completely dissipated.

Wrong.

Within this area, there is another place where a mirror exists.

In the Captain's Cabin of the "Black Death," now broken in two, Tracy and her maid struggled to hold on against the spreading aftershocks of the battle. Behind them, on the floor, lay a shattered Mirror —the very object Tracy had used to summon the "White Saint."

Suddenly, the largest side burst into flames, with jet-black flames rising up.

"Um?"

Tracy turned around immediately; she could sense a great deal of Spirituality emanating from the lens.

Sure enough, he saw his mother's figure in White Robe reflected in the Mirror. Katarina was still smiling sweetly, reaching out her hand, intending to pass through the mirror and return to reality—until the Mirror surface turned a deep, rusty red, which blocked her outstretched hand and severed her connection with reality.

Katarina suddenly stopped laughing.

Layers of illusory worlds began to appear inside the Mirror. She suddenly stepped back, no longer trying to step out of the Mirror, but instead turned and plunged into the depths of the illusory world, as if she wanted to leave through it.

But it was too late for her.

"Ah"

The piercing screams seemed to come from another world, containing intense emotions of extreme fear and disbelief, shaking people's hearts. Soon, thick blood spilled from the Mirror's surface, spreading across the entire floor.

The blonde maid trembled with fear at the sound, while Tracy, after her Oldest One surprise, pushed the maid aside and rushed to the Mirror.

"Hey! What's wrong with you!"

She cried out urgently to her reflection in the Mirror. Although she outwardly disliked her mother, she actually harbored complex feelings towards her.

But just then, a man's face appeared in the mirror. He had long red hair, a red mark like a banner between his eyebrows, and two deep, exposed wounds on his handsome face. He was smiling at him!

"Thump thump thump!"

Tracy retreated in alarm, watching as a white figure emerged from the narrow mirror and entered reality.

Her mother wore an unprecedentedly wicked smile as Pride looked around.
