The goddess's fury
Year 45 of the First Human Empire.
Because of the numerous failures of the Hasoladi Empire, the grasslands completely broke away from the empire's control.
The Orc tribes conquered the western grasslands and continued to expand northward.
Among the Half-Orc, the Lionfolk led a group of Half-Orc to occupy the eastern grasslands.
The Behemoth rebuilt their kingdom in the frigid North lands of the eastern grasslands.
The northern part of the Feland Continent is bordered to the west by mountain ranges.
The east was home to the Kingdom of various races, while the west consisted entirely of numerous kingdoms of the Human Race.
Fallen Star Lake.
Saintess Jeanne, riding high on her victory, continued her southward advance, conquering cities throughout the central region and reaching the Proadas Plains.
Finally, they fought a decisive battle against the last army of the Hasoladi Empire on the Lake Proadas.
By this time, the imperial army was already at its last gasp, while Saintess Jeanne's rebel army was like the rising sun, unstoppable!
But Belather Hasoladi still came.
Besides upholding the last vestiges of dignity for this great Human Empire, he had one last trump card.
On the battlefield.
A valiant female Knight, wearing a holy crown, rode a white horse and held a flag spear planted in the ground.
Behind her was a densely packed army.
She was accompanied by the Golden Lion Knight Order, each clad in golden armor and helmets, a truly awe-inspiring sight. She was also joined by a rebellious legion composed of Human Race civilians.
There are Druid Order from the Forest Elf Kingdom, Elf Swordsman from the White Gold Elf Kingdom, a vast army of Ranger from the Silver Moon Elf, Paladin and Priest from the church, Mage from the Western Sea Coast Lighthouse Council, a Mage corps of Fairy, a cavalry corps of Centaur, a fox-woman guard of Half-Orc, and so on.
In the sky, there were the Church's Griffin Knight Order, the Silver Moon Elf Hippogriff Knight, the Wells airship force, and the Pendragon Family's Dragon Knight.
Saintess Jeanne stood at the very front, like a dignified queen!
Opposite to him.
The imperial army was entirely composed of Human Race, and also included the empire's last Knight order and infantry legions.
In the sky, the Empire's Griffin Knight were few in number; a few Dragon Knight rode Five-Colored Dragon through the air, though the army still appeared formidable.
However, compared to the rebel army led by Jeanne, they were far inferior.
Emperor Belather Hasoladi stood on the high platform in the center of the army, looking at the Saintess Jeanne's army, which was no less formidable than the army of the early years of the empire, with a gloomy expression.
He simply couldn't understand it.
How could the offensive have changed so drastically in just a few decades?
But as the emperor of the empire, Belather Hasoladi always looked down on Saintess Jeanne, who was just a peasant girl!
He roared loudly on the battlefield.
"Damn traitors, ignorant village women, do you even know what you've betrayed?"
"You have betrayed the first empire of Human Race!"
"It was the Hasoladi Empire that led Human Race to rise, defeated all the alien races on the continent, and established such a great Human Empire."
"Now you actually want to overthrow it? You are all traitors!"
On a flat plain.
Saintess Jeanne snorted and retorted loudly.
"Those who act justly gain abundant support, while those who act unjustly find themselves isolated! Belather, don't you even understand this principle?"
"The Empire destroyed Lionheart, another Human Race Kingdom, and brutally murdered countless Human Race people from villages in the Northlands, committing heinous crimes. Even the Empire must atone for its sins!"
"Even after the war ended, under the rule of the empire, the empire continued to exploit its people and leave them no way to survive. This is the real reason why the empire should not have continued to exist."
"Most importantly, the empire actually wants us to abandon our faith and force us to worship the God of Death. An empire like that should have been overthrown long ago."
Saintess Jeanne raised her flagpole, held it horizontally and vertically, pointed the tip at the imperial army, and shouted loudly.
"Belather Hasoladi, today is the day the empire falls."
"Don't you believe in God of Death? Accept your fate of dying!"
She's about to lead her troops into battle!
Just then...
The entire sky suddenly turned pitch black, as if night had fallen!
Immediately, a bolt of deep black lightning ripped through the night sky, descending from the heavens and striking Saintess Jeanne with a deafening roar.
In an instant, before the incredulous eyes of countless rebels, Saintess Jeanne fell to the ground.
The next moment.
An angry female voice echoed throughout the heavens and earth!
"Soladis, you're asking for death!"
soon.
A dazzling golden light pierced the night sky, dispelling the darkness and bringing the Sun's Radiance back to the world.
A goddess of unparalleled beauty, with a graceful and voluptuous figure and eight golden wings on her back, appeared beside Saintess Jeanne, who lay on the ground, unable to move.
When she tried to revive Saintess Jeanne of Arc, she found that she had already died.
Only one soul with an extremely strong will remained, struggling to resist the onslaught of God of Death's power.
The goddess quickly removed the power of God of Death and stabilized Jeanne's soul!
Then, she handed Saintess Jeanne's soul to Raphael, the Chief Angel appeared there at almost the same time, ascended to the heavens, parted the sea of clouds, found the black-robed God of Death standing in the sky, and roared in fury.
"Soladis, you have broken the rules among the gods, daring to personally intervene and even harm mortals!"
"Furthermore, Jeanne is the Saint of Judgment; harming her is tantamount to declaring war on our Paradise Mountain!"
"What audacity!"
However, the God of Death in black robes, carrying a long scythe, spoke coldly and mercilessly.
"So what if they are mortals? Haven't the deaths on earth been enough? The Hasoladi Empire shouldn't have fallen!"
She ruined my plans!
He didn't actually want to get involved himself.
But God of Death has no subordinate gods, and Jeanne herself is Demigod, so he can't find anyone to kill her and has to take matters into his own hands.
Then, his cold laughter echoed throughout the heavens and earth, reaching the Warrior of both sides on the battlefield below.
Other gods fear Paradise Mountain, but I do not.
"Hmph, then die!"
Annatania Gabriel didn't waste any more words, and a golden Archery instantly appeared in her hand.
Below, on the ground.
At the forefront of the uprising, the rebels, seeing the saintess fall, did not disperse. Instead, they erupted with unprecedented fighting spirit and roars, charging forward!
They want revenge!
