I'll kill you after I finish this game!

His wife Durga had fulfilled her responsibility of nursing Misra, and he too had to fulfill his.

Creating a world where children can live happily is the responsibility of Misra's father, Ashura!

"Yay, yay, finally I'm getting motivated again!"

The golden spider stopped what it was doing, watching Ashura's retreating figure as he ran towards the top of the stone pillar, and let out a cunning laugh, saying:

"Hmm... I've finished my work here, it's time to go to the other side."

Having said that, the golden spider suddenly disappeared from the scene and went to another candidate.

..........

In the human world, more than a hundred years had passed since Asura's death.

When Asura returned to the mortal world from the underworld, the fluctuations of his mantra power were immediately detected by the divine army.

On that day, the generals gathered together again, a rare occasion, and even Deus, who had been busy preparing for battle, took time out to attend the meeting.

Now that Hua Xian is dead, only seven of the divine generals remain.

This time, none of the generals, who had been warned by Skadi beforehand, acted rashly.

The day when Buridora will awaken is fast approaching. In the battle with the Asura hundreds of years ago, their divine kingdom lost a powerful general.

Therefore, Skadi also said during the meeting of the gods that there was no need to worry about Ashura anymore, and that the power of mantra used in battle should not be wasted on dealing with that guy.

After all, even if you kill Asura, he will be resurrected after a while.

They've lost both their mana and their combat personnel; it's simply not worth the losses.

Causal Fortress, Divine General's Meeting Room.

"How despicable! Of all times, Ashura had to come out and cause trouble at this most crucial moment!"

Olga slammed her hand on the table in the conference room, furious at Ashura for being such an obstacle. If she could, she really wanted to send troops to annihilate this guy.

However, Skadi also said that if this guy can continue to resurrect, then sending troops to deal with him will only result in them suffering losses.

If the Divine Kingdom's army were to suffer heavy losses on the eve of Buridora's awakening, it would be an extremely serious matter.

Therefore, even Deus had to consider the pros and cons of Skadi's proposal in dealing with Ashura.

"We can't send troops to deal with Asura, but we can't just leave this guy unattended. Could we imprison him...? No, that guy is impossible to imprison. Even if we could, we'd need a divine general to guard him. We've already lost Hua Xian, a key member of our force, and we can't afford to waste our remaining fighting strength..."

Carlo was pondering a strategy. His usual smile was gone. Faced with the enormous trouble brought by Ashura, this old man, who always seemed to be in control, now had a troubled expression that could be described as somewhat ferocious and terrifying.

With the ability to resurrect, coupled with Asura's inherent instability, he is an extremely troublesome and troublesome being.

Killing him is impossible, and it might even cause harm like Hua Xian did.

Confining him wouldn't work, and it would require the power of the gods to guard him. On the eve of Buridora's awakening, this was simply impossible.

"...Could you let me persuade that guy? Ashura is only doing this to seek revenge and get his daughter back. If he can kill Buridora, I'll give my life to him."

Yaksha turned to look at Deus. Since Ashura couldn't be killed or imprisoned, he decided to discuss it with this guy.

Wanting revenge is fine, wanting to save his daughter is fine too, but with a formidable enemy at hand, Yaksha is more concerned with whether he can save the world.

If he could successfully save the world, he was willing to give his life to Asura.

The death of his sister and the guilt he felt towards his niece had left this man with nothing but a sense of righteousness in his heart.

The already exhausted Yaksha didn't know what reason he had to live in this world after defeating Buridora.

"snort....."

“Ah…”

Regarding the disciple Yaksha, Deus gave a disdainful snort, while Ocas let out a playful sneer.

Although Deus didn't understand Asura as well as his master Ocas, he knew that the man had no brains to communicate with, only his fists.

Aside from life-or-death battles, Asura won't listen to your advice.

“We can’t kill Asura, nor can we imprison him, but we do have a way to restrain that guy.”

Skadi rested her arms on the conference table, her hands idly supporting her chin, and calmly stated that she had a way to deal with that Ashura guy.

Upon hearing this, Deus, who was sitting in the main seat, and the other gods all looked at Skadi, wanting to hear what methods she had to restrain Asura.

Skadi only uttered three words in response.

"Misra".

"What? Lady Shrine Maiden, do you mean to use the shrine maiden to threaten Ashura? That's quite a clever idea."

Carlo's eyes lit up, and a cunning smile appeared on his lips. He thought he understood what Skadi meant.

Yaksha frowned, Okas chuckled, and the others looked thoughtful.

Skadi rolled her eyes helplessly at Carlo's wicked scheme and the speculations of others, and continued:

"What I mean is to return Misra to that guy Ashura. Twelve thousand years have passed, Misra has completed her mission, so what's the point of keeping her around?"

Twelve thousand years have passed. Because of Skadi's sacrifice, the priestess Misra does not need to convert the power of the mantra. She only needs to amplify the mantra that Skadi left in the Eight Extremes Furnace.

This cycle is now nearing its end, and it will be no more than a few hundred years before Buridora awakens. In these few hundred years, Misra will no longer need to continue amplifying the mantra.

"no!"

Olga heard Skadi's suggestion, thought for a moment, and then objected, saying, "When the battle with Bridora begins, the soldiers on the front lines will still need her power. The priestess's influence on the entire battle is too great."

Sergei and Carlo nodded in agreement.

Deus stroked his chin and began to consider.

Although 12,000 years have passed, the remaining few hundred years no longer require Misra to convert and amplify the power of the mantra.

However, when the battle against Bridhara begins, Misra's presence can also bring the power of the mantra to the divine soldiers fighting on the front lines.

If they were to return it to Asura, they would suffer even greater losses of the divine kingdom's life force in the battle against Buridora.

However, if they don't do this, Asura will inevitably continue to seek revenge against the divine kingdom, which will also cause losses.

“Olga, what you said makes a lot of sense, but I never said that if we return Misra to Ashura, we will lose the priestess’s beneficial influence on the overall battle.”

Skadi, unfazed by Olga's rebuttal, instead smiled and uttered words that puzzled everyone present.

Returning Misra to Ashura wouldn't mean losing the buffs the priestess would provide to them...

While the others were still pondering, Carlo, who was most adept at strategy, had increasingly bright eyes, as if he had vaguely grasped some key point and understood Skadi's meaning.

Finally, Skadi didn't keep anyone in suspense and directly revealed her thoughts.

“If we return Misra to Ashura, he will become more restrained with his daughter by his side, and he will no longer be able to launch attacks on the divine kingdom as recklessly as before. Moreover, Ashura on Earth can protect Misra well, but when Brithara awakens, do you think he can stand aside? He will definitely go to fight the demon-slaying demon, and will Misra, who is worried about her father, do you think she will do nothing?”

"...Treacherous, truly treacherous! This plan is both cunning and ingenious!"

After hearing this, Carlo burst into laughter, and even slapped his thigh in excitement. He truly admired Skadi's strategy of retreating to advance.

Upon hearing Skadi's words, Olga and Deus's eyes lit up; this was indeed a brilliant idea.

Firstly, with his daughter Misra by his side, Ashura, who values ​​her safety, absolutely cannot act rashly as usual.

This temporarily resolves the threat that Asura poses to the divine kingdom.

Secondly, Misra is only temporarily placed with Asura. Once Buridora awakens, the entire Earth will become a battlefield.

Ashura cannot remain uninvolved, nor can Misra.

If Ashura goes to the battlefield, Misra will definitely use her power to help her father.

In this way, without losing Misra's miraculous power, they will receive Ashura's help in the final battle against Bridhara.

That's killing two birds with one stone!

"...Titi, I feel like you're somewhat like your second brother, Lanmeng... with extraordinary wisdom?"

Mary, inside Skadi's body, uttered words in a low, eerie voice that made Skadi's eyes twitch.

Indeed, the way she's now strategizing for the Divine Kingdom is exactly like how her second brother, Lan Meng, used to scheme against others.

It feels like Lan Meng was using Xiao Tong to scheme against Hai Hu, making it difficult for him to make any progress.

This cunning and treacherous scheme is like striking a snake at its vital point; it has likely directly strangled Asura's lifeline.

Chapter Sixty-One: The Golden Spider's Deliberate Retreat – A Suicide Attempt

In the boundless ocean of true power, the figure of a sleeping black-haired girl drifts about.

As if she were in a beautiful dream from which she could not wake up, the girl had a slightly happy smile on her face.

The surrounding mantra power is all generated by positive emotions and prayers, but the strongest emotion is the warm and loving kindness of a mother.

For Misra, who had lost both her mother and father, this was indeed a place that could soothe her sorrowful and lonely heart.

In this cycle of twelve thousand years, Misra, as the core tool for amplifying and transforming mantra power, did not have a good time in the first two thousand years; it could be described as torment.

Because the power of the mantra transformed from negative prayers comes into contact with her, her consciousness will only fall into a terrible nightmare.

Two thousand years later, Skadi and Mary filled the Eight Extremes Furnace with the power of the Word of Love, and Misra's condition improved.

Sleeping in this ocean of mantra power transformed from positive prayer, Misra was able to obtain a blissful dream.

In her dream, her father and mother were both alive and well, and there was no dramatic change in the divine kingdom... These simple days were the happiest life for Misra.

Unfortunately... it was just a dream after all.

"Misra, it's time to wake up from your ten-thousand-year dream. Your father is still waiting for you."

A gentle voice entered Misra's consciousness, causing her to slowly awaken in this pure white space of true words. When she opened her eyes, she saw the woman she had once called her sister.

In this space that could be described as consciousness, Skadi silently looked at the girl in front of her who had just woken up and had a blank expression.

Misra silently gazed at Skadi, blinking as she looked at the other woman and then at her surroundings, a hint of loss and sorrow appearing in her eyes.

A dream is just a dream, and one day you will wake up.

And that moment of waking up to face the cruel reality is now.

“Skadi… Sister…”

Looking at the beautiful snow-haired, blue-eyed woman before her, Misra accepted the reality of waking up from her dream and remained silent for a moment before responding to Skadi, still using the same address she had used 12,000 years ago.
