God? Hmph! I'll make sure he never returns (Seeking! Follow-up reading!))

[The God of Sin, Drodell, descended upon His loyal City of Sin.]

[Endless darkness surrounded His body, emitting a crimson light. It was the raging fire from the abyss, shining with the colors of destruction and despair. His form twisted and changed, without a fixed image, like a demon from a nightmare. His body was vast and terrifying, seemingly capable of tearing through the veil of reality, causing endless pain and disaster.]

[This is sin.]

[Drodell sensed that someone had taken the Sin Grail, and He was enraged.]

[Who?!]

[Drodell's voice was filled with a low, fierce roar that made the world tremble. It was a suffocating sound of evil, full of strangeness and mockery. When He roared, the stars lost their light, the sky cracked open, and blood-like flames surged from the void, bringing a scene of terror and doomsday.]

Uh, a level 150 small BOSS, described as if the end of the world has arrived.

No need, no need.

Shen Sui sighed.

He hadn't intended to intervene.

When he first drew the Alice Soul Card, he thought it would be a long, long time before he faced the highest combat power on the Dawn Continent.

Who would have thought that in less than a month, Alice would already be confronting the God of Sin?

Drodell wasn't the most imposing among the many god-level BOSSes in Dawn Link; in fact, He was one of the weakest. Even Arianna, whose divinity was halved by Vivian, was level 152.

Of course, since Drodell could hold a place among the gods without having His divinity stolen by other gods, He did possess some ability.

Those who didn't understand His abilities, even gods of the same rank, couldn't kill Him.

But as a max-level player of this game and a second-playthrough player, Shen Sui knew Drodell's weaknesses like the back of his hand.

[Drodell's descent caused the thugs of Modena City to fall into a frenzy. They became even more convinced that Alice was the true Saintess of Sin.]

[The thoughts of the believers influenced Drodell, and He also believed that Alice was His most devout follower.]

[Child, offer the girl beside you to me.]

[Drodell issued a command to Alice, demanding Anna.]

[Anna trembled, curled up, hiding behind Alice, her soul consumed by fear and despair.]

[This is a god, a high and mighty god.]

Shen Sui actually had the ability to instantly kill Drodell.

But this would not be conducive to Alice's growth at all.

He had to guide Alice, make her think for herself, and use all the resources she could muster to face the difficulties.

[You explained to Alice the importance of the Sin Grail to Drodell.]

[Either offer Anna, or defy the god.]

[I will not betray my friend.]

[Alice made her choice without hesitation, even though the high and mighty being was someone she could not possibly defeat.]

[As long as sin exists in Drodell's Divine Territory, He is an immortal and indestructible being. You told Alice about the characteristics of the God of Sin.]

[If you can find a way to reduce the sin in this city, then I will risk my old life and perhaps try to help you kill Drodell. However, if I do this, I will fall into a long period of slumber. You have already permanently lost the possibility of Resurrection due to the curse of the Sin Grail. If I fall into slumber, you will have to face the dangers of this world alone for a long time in the future.]

Fighting a Drodell wouldn't cost Shen Sui much effort.

He was just finding an excuse to make Alice feel that she would lose her protection for a long time in the future.

Facing crises allows for faster growth.

[I will find a way. Alice said without hesitation.]

[Alice raised the banner of the God of Sin and ascended to the highest point of the church.]

[Gentlemen, stand up, do not kneel.]

[Alice used the magic she learned from the treasure chest to spread her voice to everyone's ears.]

[She raised the banner, pointed at Drodell in the air, and declared calmly yet angrily:]

[This is a False God!]

[A False God created by the gods to deceive us! He is not Drodell!]

[Gentlemen! The gods are afraid of us!]

[They did not hesitate to create a False God to deceive and rule us!]

[Be angry! Gentlemen!]

[The faith of sin cannot be trampled upon by anyone! We must save the true God of Sin!]

[Charge with me, gentlemen! Even if we defy the gods! We will not retreat!]

[For the great Drodell!]

[Alice activated In God's Name.]

[Due to the authority established earlier, the thugs of the Pajia Gang firmly believed Alice's words.]

[They rallied the thugs from other gangs and charged towards Drodell.]

Ding! You have obtained Event Card: Insubordination Rebellion

Ding! You have obtained Spell Card: Bewitching Speech

Holy crap! How heartless.

Shen Sui was a bit startled by Alice's actions.

They trusted you so much, aren't you guilty sending them to their deaths? You asked.

Sin must be punished. My virtue does not allow me to associate with sin. I will not forgive a single person who harmed Anna and the villagers. Alice's conviction was exceptionally firm, without the slightest waver.

Drodell was attacked. He was extremely angry.

Divine Wrath enveloped the City of Sin, directly obliterating these thugs who dared to defy Him.

Alice was locked onto by Divine Wrath.

Alice did not retreat. She charged towards Drodell.

Insignificant humans are like ants before the giant shadow of a god.

Drodell's Divine Wrath descended.

Claude!

Alice roared, calling out your name.

Claude?

Drodell paused for a moment. This was a name that made Him feel disgusted and fearful. To overcome this fear, He did not hesitate to transform Modena City into His Divine Territory.

No, he's already dead!

Drodell refused to believe.

An unstoppable force erupted from Alice's body.

The powerful force scattered the Divine Wrath.

Shen Sui's mouth curved upwards.

Heh!

It's my time to shine!

He opened the input box and started typing furiously. His typing speed was comparable to his speed when typing insults at his terrible teammates.

Do you know the meaning of fire, Alice?

You activated Karmic Fire.

Fire represents destruction, it represents hope.

It is the supreme power.

It is the strongest justice.

It will cleanse all sin and injustice in the world.

Let the flames purify everything!

A fireball covering the entire City of Sin appeared above the City of Sin, as if a sun had suddenly fallen onto this city.

Everyone could feel the intense heat within it.

Watch closely, and learn! Alice!

This is the true Fireball Spell!

Let the flames burn away all the sin in this city!

Along with your words, the giant fireball plummeted.

Flames instantly covered the entire city, like a massive screen of fiery red. The city's buildings instantly turned into a sea of fire. Screams and cries of fear echoed through every street corner, making the entire city resemble hell. This should also be hell; in the hands of these thugs, countless innocent people had also screamed and cried out.

They were never merciful, and neither are the flames.

The flames quickly devoured everything in the City of Sin. Tall buildings collapsed, streets crumbled, and the inferno spread to every corner. The flames were like the tongue of a demon, licking at the remains of every building, turning everything into blazing ashes.

The sky was dyed blood-red by the flames, and smoke and dust filled the air, obscuring the sunlight. In this sea of fire, the chaos and sin of the City of Sin were erased together, leaving behind only ruins and a landscape of ashes.

What was once a bustling main street is now a ruin of debris, with houses leaning and collapsing, and streets burned into lava-like traces. The oppressive heatwave still raged, making it impossible to breathe, melting all sturdy structures and turning the city into a silent purgatory.

Countless charred bodies were scattered on the streets. Thugs and the sins they had committed were buried together in the angry flames. Their faces were scorched by the fire, their limbs twisted, as if gnawed away in the mouth of death. Their eyes held fear and despair, witnessing the arrival of destruction—just as the innocent people they had killed had once looked at them.

The City of Sin was destroyed by your power.

This city, built by you, finally welcomed its true master, ending over a thousand years of torment.

You stood behind Alice, watching the city's demise, your heart filled with melancholy.

Drodell sensed the demise of His Divine Territory. He felt anger and fear.

You looked at Drodell.

You used Twilight Symphony on Drodell.

You killed Drodell.

[Compared to destroying the former Modena City, killing Drodell is insignificant to you.]

[You have captured Drodell's divinity.]

In the setting of Dawn Link, as long as there are still believers, gods are immortal and indestructible. Even if they die, they can be resurrected from their divinity.

This is truly a very old fantasy novel setting.

In his previous life, Shen Sui had complained on the forums that the game's planner was simply a relic of ancient fantasy web novels, and had definitely read novels like I Am a Great Mage, Otherworld's Certain-Flow Great Mage, and so on.

Look at other magical Soul Card worlds, they are either wizard-based, witch-based, or mystery-based. Only this Dawn Continent stands out with the style of a classic harem-style fantasy novel.

And it was indeed true. In Shen Sui's first playthrough, he was either on the way to that or on the way to that, never stopping for a moment. After installing mods, it was almost like playing a certain adult game.
