The Magic Empire for 20,000 years

Chapter 199 Killing the Avatar of a God
Prince Sunrise is too fast.

Before any of the human spellcasters could react, he had already rushed in front of Elion and unleashed a sword strike!
The incandescent sword light tore through the night.

Blood splattered as the head of the King of Mankind, still bearing a calm smile, was tossed into the star-studded night sky.

On the ground, Seymour, Princess Leah, Prince Elf, and other elves in different locations stared in disbelief at the scene in the night sky.

But having fought alongside Elian against the Mind Flayers, they were suddenly reminded of another fact—

The human king Elion usually appears as a simulated clone made of ice and snow.

His true form will disguise itself as a harmless little creature and hide nearby!
However, this could not be hidden from God's eyes.

"Don't lie to me, don't think I didn't see through it. This is just a simulated clone."

"The little hamster disguised as a magical pet in your pocket is your true form, isn't it!"

"This clone certainly doesn't have the power of your original body. When you opened the dimensional gate just now, it was your original body secretly casting the spell, pretending that it was the clone casting the spell, right?"

"Do you really think that such a clumsy way of hiding can deceive the eyes of God?"

Prince Sunlight sneers as he exposes the mortals' supposedly ingenious deception.

The next second, the beheaded "Erian" melted into ice and snow under the blazing light of the gods.

From the pocket of the avatar, a little hamster emerged, swelling in the biting evening wind until it transformed into Elian's appearance.

Without the slightest hesitation, Prince Sunrise raised his longsword once more.

The sword emitted a dazzling white light, turning the night into day. The radiant light forced many human spellcasters around to cover their faces and close their eyes.

Another sword strike was aimed at Elian.

"Your Majesty El-Erian!"

"teacher!"

The three legendary human spellcasters, Evocation Mage Gutt, Transmutation Mage Helen, and Dragon Vein Warlock Gret, simultaneously unleashed their trump cards, launching a final attack on the Sun Prince.

Ordinary attacks are unlikely to harm this deity.

But this decisive blow couldn't possibly have been ineffective!
In the night sky from all directions, more than 200 high-level human spellcasters, blinded by the dazzling light, also gathered their power and transferred it to the three legends.

The colorful light illuminated the entire night sky, causing the Sun Elf's palace to tremble.

Faced with the terrifying energy attacking from behind, the avatar of the Sun Prince did not retreat or defend, but simply thrust his sword at Elian in front of him.

God didn't care about the damage to this incarnation; as long as it could kill the human king in front of it, that was enough.

Faced with the incandescent longsword piercing him, a destructive attack capable of annihilating even the soul, Elion felt that the surrounding space had been sealed off, making it impossible to dodge or teleport away.

But the human emperor remained calm, as if he had long anticipated this moment.

While everyone was holding back Prince Sunrise, Elion certainly wasn't idle; he had been preparing all along...

Prepare a killing move to slay a god.

High-ranking beings such as divine incarnations and demon lords possess extremely strong resistance to magic and are unharmed by ordinary weapons.

Therefore, in the epic stories passed down through the ages, those who were able to kill these high-ranking beings were often warriors wielding divine artifacts or legendary magical weapons.

The mages, who possessed uncanny abilities, were more responsible for providing support from the sidelines, using magic to enhance the warrior heroes.

Magic is a fancy trick; only the sword can end everything.

However, Elion also knew that the most skilled mages didn't just use direct magical attacks to kill their enemies...

Braving the fierce wind, Elion drew a crystal longsword from his [Dimensional Bag], the sword shimmering with layers of dazzling magical light.

This is a legendary weapon that the golems seized from the elven hero Hoyland Sunshine after capturing the mid-level legendary warrior. It is possibly the best sword in the entire elven kingdom and was taken by Elion at the start of the battle.

Then, during the battle, while the Sun Prince summoned his legion of heroes and while everyone held the Sun Prince back, Elion cast one terrible spell after another on the legendary sword.

Whoosh!
Elian's body suddenly grew taller, and snow-white wings sprouted from his back.

—【Seraph】(Celestial Being)!
He activated a spell he had pre-placed on himself, briefly transforming into an angel, second only to the gods, to gain their melee abilities. Then, facing the Sun Prince's thrusting sword, Elion made no defensive move, simply thrusting his own sword forward.

Two ornate longswords in the style of the Sun Elf passed each other in the night sky without colliding, both resolutely thrusting towards their targets.

Two swords pierced his chest simultaneously!

The crystal longsword, reinforced by numerous spells cast by Elion, pierced the Sun Prince's chest;
Meanwhile, the blazing divine sword in Prince Sunlight pierced through Elian's chest.

"A mage, at the decisive moment, abandoned his magic and fought me with a weapon."

Is this your glory?

The Prince of Sunshine, whose left chest was pierced, asked with a twisted smile.

"No,"

Elian, who had also been pierced through the chest by a white-hot longsword, shook his head in his dying moments:
"This is simply a choice based on practicality."

Rumble.

A terrifying attack, possessing the combined power of all human spellcasters and reaching the level of a high-level legend, finally struck the Sun Prince from behind.

Golden divine blood filled the night sky.

—After the protective divine spells on his body were dispelled, and in his weakened state with a hole pierced in his chest, this deity's resistance seemed to have decreased significantly.

Prince Sunlight coughed up golden blood, his handsome face turning pale.

"He overloaded his divine power and, while caught off guard, took both fatal attacks with his bare body."

"Indeed, the damage is quite significant..."

But God doesn't care.

It's just a damaged combat avatar; it can be repaired in a little time.

In any case, God's goal has been achieved.

With his chest pierced by the incandescent longsword, Elian closed his eyes contentedly, the deformed state of his body dissipating as his last breath ebbed away.

"Your Majesty El-Erian!"

"Quickly, save His Majesty!"

"Those killed by a god's weapon should be unable to be resurrected, right?"

The crowd gasped in surprise.

Gutt's eyes reflected the figure of the king who fought the gods in a suicidal manner, and he involuntarily clenched his fists.

This is the king he wants to follow...

The god withdrew his longsword, his entire body covered in golden blood:

"As a mere mortal, to sacrifice my only battle avatar for my life is indeed something to be proud of..."

After saying this, God closed his eyes forever and fell from the sky.

At the end of the 30th year of the Empire, the divine incarnation of Terrani, the eldest son of the God-King Avandor, the God of War among the Elves, and the God of the Sun Elves, was killed by mortals in a battle against the human kingdom of Eldoron.

This is the first recorded instance on the mainland of a god's battle avatar being destroyed in a confrontation with a mortal hero.

Hu Hu Hu.

The incandescent flames set Elian's body ablaze.

The monarch of Eldoron also fell from the night sky amidst the gasps of the crowd.

Two shooting stars streaked across the night sky.
