Settling Old Scores and New Grudges Together

Ruin No. 1, the interior of the magnificent Mausoleum.

The real George III has donned the Black Crown and taken the Potion.

His body was transforming towards the Shadow of Order, expanding and extending in a wondrous state.

Those nine Mausoleum are islands in a void Ocean, components of the entire system, while the "Emperor George III" chanted by the people during the Ritual are countless, densely packed lighthouses, anchoring this ruler of the Loen, East Balam, and Rorsted Archipelago, preventing him from completely detaching from reality and becoming part of the Shadow of Order.

Throughout the process, George III's thoughts wandered uncontrollably, as if being torn apart, with one idea after another constantly emerging:

"I never expected that besides Zaratul, I would have such a powerful ally..."

"According to intelligence from the front lines, they discovered a strange being who revels in blood and fire on the battlefield, calling himself Medici Sauron Einhorn, who has a very deep connection with the 'Blood Emperor'..."

"Heh, He desperately needs to regain His former power. I only used the Beyonder Characteristic of 'Conqueror' to get this being, who was formerly one of the three Sequence 1 Angel and is now Hybrid Wraith, to agree to help me..."

"I made Contract with Him through my own abilities, but I still need to be wary of cunning Hunter..."

"Although this Beyonder Characteristic 'Conqueror' attribute has already been promised to the Demoness Sect, I don't care... Once I ascend to True God after today, the Demoness Sect's objections will be futile..."

"With the help I've brought from the 'Twilight Hermit Order,' and Celt and his group who wield the '0' level Sealed Artifact, even if most of the Demigod from the Military and Royal Family are fighting on the front lines or protecting Backlund, I no longer need to worry about the Ritual being disrupted, unless a True God descends upon reality..."

"And that's impossible... So, what I originally intended to do was lure out 'Opponents,' but I ultimately decided to take this opportunity to get promoted directly..." "Heh, Celt doesn't know about these hidden trump cards, and he's not qualified to know..."

"In a little while, no more than two minutes, I will become an eternal God, the 'Black Emperor' who rules reality..."

The king was lost in thought, quietly awaiting his fusion with the Potion, awaiting his ascension to become True God on earth. In his hazy Illusion, the radiant light of the Astral World seemed to be showering down upon him...

Outside the Mausoleum.

Teleportation is prohibited here.

Just as Medici appeared, an undeniably powerful voice suddenly rang out, echoing throughout the Mausoleum.

The entire space trembled in response to the "Prohibition," isolating itself from the outside world.

Luther saw that deep within the flames, above the spire of the Mausoleum, countless faint points of light were converging, quickly forming a majestic figure. It was a dignified and slightly Pride old man, with many Silver Threads mixed in with his black hair, and no beard on his face.

The former "Duke of South Wales" of Loen, the "Balancer" of Sequence 2, and the Royal Family Angel who intervened to stop the [Blood Bishop] from bombarding the Sodela Palace back then, Dlink Augustus!

"See? I set a trap as I suggested, and this guy took the bait right away, didn't he?"

Medici smiled and said to Dlink. His body radiated a surging and intense Spirituality, and his appearance had returned to that of a man, though some feminine qualities remained. Luther stared at him coldly.

"Medici, what did that shitty George give you to come here and be his watchdog?"

Hehe... what do you think?

Medici smiled and asked in a good mood.

He then produced a strange crown, covered in rust and bloodstains, from somewhere, and tossed it up and down in his palm as if playing with an apple.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The surrounding purple pillars of fire immediately burst into flames, shooting into the sky. One of them flew up and landed in His palm, rapidly compressing and coiling to form a flaming spear radiating deadly danger.

"Spear of Destruction!"

"Buzz--"

Medici aimed at Luther and hurled the spear.

The flames blazed brightly, instantly illuminating the entire dark space as if it were daytime!

"The Balancer" Dlink watched all this quietly. As Medici launched his powerful attack, he drew a silver Rapier and slashed it across the void ahead. Without him needing to speak, the Order of the entire space was restored. The battle between Luther and Medici seemed to be isolated outside the area, and no matter how powerful the flames were, they could not spread their aftershocks to the Mausoleum where George III was located.

At the same time, opposite Luther, the deadly "Spear of Destruction" was rapidly enlarging in his field of vision, its purple, intensely blazing flames filling his field of vision!

"No, I can't avoid it..."

Luther sensed that Medici had "locked" his weakness, making it impossible for him to dodge in a normal way.

He reacted quickly, and on a whim, he immediately took out the "Box of the Great Old Ones" from his robes and opened the first lid of the "Spear of Destruction" that was coming towards him.

"Brush!"

A corner of the world constructed by Zaratul was then released, standing as an independent space in front of Luther.

"Boom--"

The Firearm shot straight in, penetrating that dark and eerie world, causing a shocking explosion and shockwave.

Is that all you've got?

Standing behind the spatial fragment, Luther Ze sneered, "Medici, your current strength is worse than when you were my dog. You're really getting worse as you get older."

"I have good news for you, you don't have much time left," Medici said with a smile.

"That's enough for me to kill you."

Luther retorted softly.

Although Dlink had sealed off the space, he could still escape by expending some power with the help of the Tide. The problem was time; George III had been taking the Potion for some time now. Even if he left here, he would still have to find another Mausoleum, where other Angel might be waiting for him, and it might not be as easy to deal with as this place.

Since that's the case, there's nothing more to say. Plus, there's Dlink who stopped him back then; let's settle both old and new scores and wipe them out!

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

With two loud bangs, two heads, stained with blood and shrouded in shadow, sprouted from either side of Luther's shoulder.

Then, the two heads each took a part of his body, thus splitting him into three Avatar.

Besides the main body, each of the two Avatar held a strange playing card in its hand.

It depicts terrifying Demon that manipulate human desires, and towering Giant standing in the Twilight.

The [Devil] card and the [Twilight Giant] card!

"Puff!"

"Puff!"

Each of the Avatar inserted a Card of Blasphemy into their bodies, echoing the Lamb Grazing within them. In this way, their Spirituality surged, and they confronted Dlink and Medici!
