Knight Disqualified; the White-Haired Cutie Finally Learns the Truth (Continued)

However, before the Finality has even arrived, [Welt White], who has achieved power equal to the max-level Kevin, is no longer someone they can defeat.

"You have excellent taste, Hua."

He glanced at Fu Hua again and said, "Now, I am the second savior, the only one of this era." The pure white wings on Shi Hen's back unfurled slightly, and the biting wind and frost spread, extinguishing all the remaining heavenly fire on Mount Tai Xu.

Indeed, those who are truly capable of shouldering the weight of the world!

As soon as he finished speaking, a surge of power was released from Shi Hen's body, forcing Bronya and Seele to tumble and fly more than ten meters away. Kiana and Schariac also barely managed to stabilize themselves.

"What savior, what Finality? I just don't believe in this nonsense!"

Seeing this, Schariac couldn't hold back any longer. He raised his hand and summoned a giant Xuanyuan Sword, tens of meters long, and smashed it down on the white-haired man.

Sizzle—

Without any intention of dodging, Shi Hen simply flapped one of his wings, and the giant sword, tens of meters long, bounced off like a ball hitting a wall, cutting a long sword mark on Mount Tai Xu.

"Then I'll show you what true power is, Herrscher of Knowledge."

With a light laugh, Shi Hen's wings suddenly flapped, causing his body to spin as he landed with a split kick.

Not daring to take the attack head-on, Schariac retreated as quickly as possible.

Bang!

With a sudden slam, the ground within hundreds of meters around it erupted like water ripped open by an iron ball, sending up a massive amount of mud and sand. The entire Mount Tai Xu then began to shake violently.

Boom—

Amidst the deafening roar, the once majestic mountain collapsed rapidly, resembling a child's stack of building blocks, with countless rocks rolling and filling every ravine in the Mount Tai Xu region.

"..."

Kiana and the others were thrown back by the shockwave of the man's attack. Their eyes widened in disbelief at the sight, and they couldn't help but stare blankly.

Is this power to rewrite the terrain at will truly something that humans can possess?

You should know that Mount Tai Xu is several thousand meters high!

Even so, the man easily leveled the several thousand meters of height with a single kick.

"Do you see the difference between us, Herrscher?"

No matter how hard you try to catch up, you will never be able to reach it.

This is the true power of me, Welt White, the one who bears the name of the world!

With a low, hoarse laugh, Shi Hen slightly opened his right hand and pulled out a pure white baseball bat from thin air, then stepped into the air and walked towards the girls.

Clatter!

Clatter!

Each step the man took made a crisp sound, as if he were stepping on real ground, which made Kiana and the others' faces grow even paler.

The weakness resulting from the exhaustion of their strength, the fear of witnessing the true power of [Welt White]... all of this caused the originally incredibly resilient girls to waver, making it difficult for them to muster the courage to fight back.

Whoosh!

Just as the man drew closer, a beam of white light suddenly shot towards him, like a shooting star, and hurtled toward the white-haired man.

Bang!

With a slight lift of his eyes, Shi Hen raised his baseball bat without hesitation and smashed it down. The white light then spun back and revealed itself in the air True Form a white lance, which was tightly grasped by a girl's slender hand.

"Durandal!?"

Upon seeing the newcomer's long, golden hair, which shone even brighter than the sunlight, Kiana's pupils constricted.

"Durandal, have you come to atone for your mistakes and retrieve the Phoenix Incinerator?"

His gaze slowly fell on the girl wearing the Starchasm Nyx Armor, Shi Hen asked with a low laugh, his tone full of unspoken arrogance.

"..."

Upon hearing this, Kiana tensed up and gripped the Phoenix Incinerator hand even tighter, like a short-legged cat protecting a dried fish from being stolen.

Noticing the white-haired girl's hostile gaze, Durandal shook her head helplessly, her eyes suddenly turning serious as she looked at the white-haired man: "You must have said before that I can do whatever I want with the Phoenix Incinerator, right?"

As she spoke, Durandal shifted her lance slightly to a guarded position.

Even if she could confirm that Welt White was indeed not very interested in the Phoenix Incinerator and had never cared about the ownership of this Divine Key.

But... at this moment, the white-haired man is still an extremely dangerous figure.

"Yes, that's right, I did say that."

But..."

Ignoring the girl's wary gaze, Shi Hen stopped, covered his mask, and laughed, "Durandal, what did I do to make you suspect me with such malice?"

If you tell me directly that you want to hand over the Phoenix Incinerator to this Void Herrscher.

She will not only be unharmed, but will also receive my generous gift—I will personally instruct her on how to use this Divine Key.

However, you deliberately used trickery and even intentionally lost, causing my plan to deviate slightly this time.

"I..."

When the man directly exposed all her intentions, Durandal was speechless for a moment.

On the other side, Kiana stared blankly at all of this, her pupils dilating in shock, her blue eyes filled with surprise and confusion.

Despite the fact that both the young boy and Theresa have always held Durandal, the strongest Valkyrie of Schicksal, in high esteem.

However, whenever Durandal did to them under Otto's command, and now her loyalty to Welt White, the murderer of Siegfried, Kiana simply cannot treat Durandal as an equal.

Even in the battle to reclaim the Phoenix Incinerator, she always believed that Durandal genuinely wanted to stop her and the boy, and that she defeated her head-on with her own strength.

But now, [Welt White] tells her that all of this was a scheme painstakingly set up by Durandal, just to return the Phoenix Incinerator to her.

How could she possibly accept something like this?!

Shihen glanced at the complex expression on the white-haired girl, Shi Hen chuckled and continued, "Durandal, do you really think I'm such a fickle person?"

"No, no!"

Upon hearing this, Durandal immediately shook her head in denial.

Although he often does inhumane things, when you think about it, Welt White is actually quite honest and trustworthy.

Even though the man had clearly mocked her about her identity as the Anti-Entropy Leader, he later truly fulfilled that role.

"No?"

Seeing the girl's hurried reply, Shi Hen raised his voice and let out a hoarse chuckle, "But, it seems you don't really think so."

While you enjoy the indulgence I give you, you are secretly plotting to rebel against me.

You wouldn't even call me bishop.

"..."

Meeting the man's arrogant, scrutinizing gaze, Durandal blushed involuntarily. After a long pause, she took a deep breath, made up her mind, and murmured, "B- Bishop Sir..."

As she shouted, the girl couldn't help but think of the blond bishop she had once regarded as her father, and the strange sense of transgression in her heart suddenly intensified.

"[Welt White]!"

Seeing the golden-haired Valkyrie being so humiliated, Kiana immediately screamed in unbearable anger, her eyes filled with fury that seemed to spit fire as she looked at the man.

Even though she had a bad impression of Durandal before, after understanding all the efforts the other party had made, her former hostility had completely turned into guilt.

At this moment, even if the boy listed all 108 of Durandal's shining qualities in front of her, she would not feel the slightest bit... well, let's forget about that.

Regardless, in her heart now, Durandal has become a partner who can fight alongside her, just like Fu Hua.

"Tsk! She really can't learn to be obedient, Void Herrscher ~"

Seeing the girl's extremely angry expression, Shi Hen couldn't help but shake his head slightly.

"Bai! You just promised me you wouldn't hurt Kiana!"

Upon seeing this, Durandal immediately became nervous.

"Hehehe..."

Shi Hen simply chuckled softly, "Void Herrscher, thank you for having a mother who dotes on you."

In the name of Welt White, I acknowledge your right to retain the Phoenix Incinerator.

"Mother, Mother..."

Ignoring the relief that Welt White had spared her, Kiana turned her gaze to the golden-haired Valkyrie, who was two years younger than her on paper, her eyes almost completely losing their light.

While Durandal's figure is indeed much better than hers, this kind of thing is just too absurd no matter how you look at it.

"Bai! You, you..."

On the other side, Durandal's cheeks flushed red, and she couldn't utter a complete sentence when she looked at the white-haired man.

Not to mention that she hadn't figured out how to tell Kiana the truth yet, and hoped to preserve the name "Kiana" for the girl, she had always regarded Kiana as her younger sister.

Besides, she's never even had a proper romantic relationship, and suddenly she's been thrust into the role of a mother...

For a moment, Durandal felt like poking all 108 transparent holes in [Welt White].

"Isn't that right? Her blood is yours."

Shi Hen asked back in a serious tone.

Since this white-haired girl has already felt guilty towards Durandal, let's go a little further.

The feeling of being slowly boiled like a frog in lukewarm water is far less profound.

"..."

Taking a deep breath, Durandal could no longer suppress her shyness and suddenly channeled her grief and anger into strength, thrusting her spear at the white-haired man.

When!

Faced with the girl's attack fueled by shame and anger, Shi, the ruthless and cold-blooded man in the White Masks vest, easily blocked it and sent the Valkyrie flying.

Without glancing at Durandal again, Shi Hen continued walking slowly toward Kiana and the others.

Feeling the terrifying pressure from the white-haired man that intensified as the distance between them decreased, Kiana and the others managed to stand up, even though they could no longer maintain their Herrscher forms, each holding a weapon and wanting to fight to the death.

Whoosh!

A golden figure flew close again, swinging a white lance at the man with all its might.

With his wings folded behind him, Shi Hen blocked the lance. He looked up at the golden-haired Valkyrie in front of him, his cold gaze filled with questioning.

"You said you wouldn't hurt them!"

Without flinching or avoiding the man's gaze, Durandal asked in a deep voice.

"I only allowed that Void Herrscher to retain the Phoenix Incinerator."

If it weren't for these little mice causing trouble, I would have already tricked the Herrscher of Knowledge back to World Serpent.

Therefore, since someone has done something wrong, they naturally have to pay the corresponding price.

Shi Hen calmly explained, "My patience with these seeds has its limits."

As an evil villain, if he doesn't show some tricks, how can people think he's a good person?

"Pah! If it weren't for these people causing trouble, I would have beaten you to a pulp long ago!"

Upon hearing this, Schariac immediately became defiant.

"..."

Ignoring the Herrscher of Knowledge's stubbornness, Durandal's gaze swept over the man's horns and wings, which were noticeably larger than when he last revealed his form, and she couldn't help but secretly gasp.

In just six months, the opponent's strength has obviously increased a lot.

Deeply sensing the terror of [Welt White], Durandal stared directly into the man's white, shimmering eyes, gritted her teeth, and shouted, "I will not allow you to harm Kiana and the others!"

Under Otto's deception, she had done many wrong things.

But now, she no longer wants to see anyone get hurt, regardless of whether there are any grand plans involved.

"Oh? You think you can stop me?"

Upon hearing this, Shi Hen couldn't help but raise an eyebrow slightly.

"Even if it takes my last ounce of strength, I will never give up!"
