There was no chance, no time left, and no way to stop that spontaneous initiation.

This campaign was a complete failure; it was pointless if it couldn't stop that.

The morale of the Fire Mist began to wane, while the spirits of the Crimson Apostles began to rise. Matilda's face darkened slightly; the word "down" never existed in her will.

"Matilda! Make a pact with me, and with my power, you will surely be able to stop Assis!"

Alastor's voice began to resound throughout the entire battlefield, causing all the fire fog, demons, and even apostles to change their expressions drastically.

Damn it, if Matilda's demonic power were combined with Alastor's power at this crucial moment, everything would be completely reversed.

Amidst the excited gazes of the Fire Mist and the terrified stares of the Crimson World Apostles, Matilda, beneath the Crimson Dragon Emperor's armor, spoke.

"No need. I made a promise with Rhine that I must stick to my own choices, otherwise I'll despise myself. I still have the power to stop him!"

Having embarked on her own path, Matilda will never have any regrets, nor will she seek help from others.

That's just how she's always been, and Merishim smiled broadly upon hearing that.

Matilda would never rely on the help of others to accomplish anything; she would always try to create opportunities for herself, no matter the circumstances.

All the Flame Haze warriors were somewhat disappointed upon hearing this, but the demons looked at the original demon with smiles and anticipation.

Yes, only those who follow their own path can reach a higher level. All demons know that their desire is their own power, and they will not rely on the power brought by the contract.

Furthermore, Matilda claimed to possess the power to stop the city-devouring attack, could it be...?

The other demons who had already reached the Creation rank on the battlefield suddenly looked at Matilda, whose quality was beginning to surge.

"【So......】"

The divine serpent's delightful yet malevolent whispers suddenly entered the ears of every being on the battlefield, or more precisely, their brains. Even those of great power who did not wish to hear it could not resist, as it flowed directly into their entire brains.

The Crimson World Apostles, led by Assis of the Ring of Darkness, suddenly looked up and searched for the source of the sound, as did the Flame Haze.

Only the presence of the demons caused his expression to become somewhat complicated and nostalgic.

There's no mistake, it's Rhine's voice, this is definitely Rhine's voice!

"Please enjoy my opera (work). The plot might be a bit cliché, but the actors are superb, and I believe they are top-notch, so it will be absolutely wonderful!"

A soft laugh that was hard to decipher, but even if you didn't understand it, the actors were already in place.

thump--

Her heart began to pound, her soul began to twist and swell, and the venom of the snake filled Matilda's entire consciousness, driving her mad.

"Ughh ...

The venom of the snake manifested once again, just as it had when Matilda stepped into the Formation stage. Under the venom of this Eternal Ritual, the girl let out a domineering roar.

The initial desire and pursuit are realized at this moment.

His crimson armor shattered and scattered, and immense spiritual pressure swept across the entire battlefield. The night cape he wore was also blown away along with Alastor.

Everyone could see that behind Matilda was an incredibly twisted and eerie shadow, the shadow of the Crimson Lord she had once defeated, as well as the presence of countless apostles.

It was as if a giant hand was kneading and shaping the apostles' brethren, creating a divine form that was impossible to reproduce.

It was a gigantic serpent body with two snakes intertwined and coiled together, its white scales engraved with the principle of infinite circles, lurking behind Matilda.

After raising its head, it unleashed a terrifying divine power by spitting out its golden tongue.

It erupted as if it were a divine manifestation, but it was not a manifestation of Matilda's will.

Rather, it was someone behind the scenes directing their mature work to shine even brighter.

In an instant, the will flowing from the ultimate point was transcended and manifested.

"【EskanndieSpur (Ourself, our body, the traces of our existence on this earth)】"

It has begun. It has begun to recall the promise made when it first met Rhine, so it is necessary to rekindle this desire and boldly display it.

Matilda often finds happiness in battle and has an unbreakable bond with Rhine, the only one who understood and accepted her feelings.

"【Verpfandung!WelchenWundersHochstesGlück! (A vow! May miracles and great deeds bring about perfect happiness!)】"

"【ImVorgefühlvonsolchemhohenGlück (Thinking of this supreme good fortune)】"

The happiest time is during battle. I want to live like this, and I want to live like this forever. I hope that this happy environment will always be around me.

This miraculous achievement was made with the promise made to Rhine. An actor? Let him see it however he wants.

After I lost to him, I became his woman, and he had the right to do whatever he wanted with me, as the victor deserved.

However, Matilda feels incredibly honored to be on the path to happiness she has now.

"[exaudiorationenmean. (May the Lord hear our prayers)]"

"【MeinTraum.KeinBoses,keinVerbrechen,keineFesselkannunsbinden. (My heart desires that no evil, no sin, no shackles may bind us.)】"

With a divine power comparable to that of a star and scorching heat, it was linked to Matilda's core, and the serpent hidden in the shadows directly ignited her desire.

"【Rotgefarbt.Fürimmer. (Body dyed crimson, for eternity)】"

So Rhine, now that you've accepted me as I am, listen carefully to my wishes.

"【——Biriah (Creation)——】"

Did the battle intent that transcended quality create a domineering otherworld? But the power that surged within Matilda also seemed like a quest for enlightenment, a pursuit of breakthroughs within herself.

A nauseating aura of struggle surged into Matilda's body, as if she were devouring and absorbing something. A concept that no one else in the entire battlefield was being consumed by Matilda.

"【RoterLotusSchwerttanz—Walküre. (Crimson Dance of Karma - War Princess Transformation!)】"

Matilda's spirit began to rise to divinity, and she could feel the atmosphere of war that brought her happiness filling her soul.

The food provided by the battlefield and the snakes brought her unparalleled joy and satisfaction, strengthening her power every minute, every second, every moment.

Centered on Matilda, the aura of a nascent godhood terrified all the apostles present. The domineering otherworldly force unfolded and enveloped the entire solar system, and it continues to expand.

Matilda devoured the concept of wars, large and small, that were taking place on Earth, and her personal power grew exponentially.

"Drink——!"

The roaring power within her body filled Matilda's soul with joy and happiness. It was this feeling of being in battle, being filled with this aura, that was simply too blissful. Matilda threw a punch directly at Assis!

"pound--!"

So excited that he forgot to rein in all his power, he unleashed a punch that reached the speed of light and supermassive mass, a punch imbued with the true meaning of war. Like an invisible, fluid tide, it crossed mountains and seas in less than a Planck's time, reaching the horizon.

With the punch delivered by that crimson figure, the planet's atmosphere was struck as if by a heavy blow, its protective layer pierced through, leaving it naked and exposed to the universe.

"boom--!!!!"

Amidst a deafening roar that resounded throughout the world, a magnificent scene far exceeding the limits of human imagination unfolded before our eyes.

God, it’s broken!

That "heaven," which has witnessed the cycle of the sun and moon and the alternation of billions of stars, and which has peacefully covered the Earth's surface for the past four billion years, sheltering and protecting all life, and which has been looked up to and worshipped by countless philosophers and living beings, was so easily blasted apart.

What caused this scene was not some cosmic force far greater than 'heaven', but a person with terrifying power!

Yes, the Demon!

Even though she exuded the aura of a nascent godhood and her basic attacks reached the speed of light, Matilda was still confined to the realm of humanity.

But this very demon, a man so powerful that even "Heaven" bowed down to him, now seems like a god among men.

"..."

Countless people witnessed this horrifying scene, and a profound sense of despair and blankness filled their eyes, hearts, and minds.

The pupils dilated uncontrollably, and the mouth opened wide involuntarily.

The extreme shock and fear caused them to lose their speech and be unable to utter a sound.

Even the shattered and vanished Asis could not make them look away from the sky.

"Swipe brush-"

At that moment, countless dreamlike colors descended from the sky and scattered across the earth.

As the atmosphere was completely blasted apart by this attack, countless deadly cosmic rays rushed toward the Earth's surface without any obstruction in that instant!

Everyone felt the threat of imminent death. Not to mention the Crimson World Apostles and the demons who defied the laws of physics, there were also the Fire Mist and ordinary people who possessed human characteristics. If they were exposed to this cosmic ray for even a second, they would die instantly.

However, these cosmic rays, which could have plowed through the entire battlefield and half of the Earth, were forcibly stopped in the sky by a powerful force.

Once Matilda regained her senses, with just a thought, these powerful cosmic lines couldn't advance an inch.

Then, she looked embarrassed, like a little girl who had done something wrong, and stretched her fair hand toward the end of the sky, as if pulling and tugging at something indescribable.

As she made this move, an immense power of existence surged directly towards the shattered sky, mending it completely, much like the mythical goddess Nuwa patching up the heavens.

The power created by Matilda is the strongest, and what she feeds on is struggle. The scene of multiverse war under the fighting of Rezer himself is used as fuel to give Matilda her domineering otherworld.

Lei Zhe surveyed the endless dimensions below, as well as the various battles and similar killings taking place in other spacetime dimensions and worlds, a smile of amusement playing on his lips.

Unlike the Golden Asura Path, yet remarkably similar, Razer felt that Matilda could become something like the God of War in No Game No Life, or perhaps a fighting deity like Khorne in Warhammer.

Everything that happens in the war becomes fuel for Matilda to become stronger, and as a domineering person, she has characteristics similar to seeking the Tao.

In the midst of war, Matilda herself experiences a surge of power, akin to a spiritual expansion, as if she were seeking enlightenment.

Like a certain dragon in a miniature garden, the more enemies there are and the more intense the battlefield, the more its own power will increase exponentially.

I wonder what it will be like when Matilda encounters the future Golden Beast and they fight. It's really something to look forward to.

P.S.: Please vote and recommend! I have a bit of a cold today, I was dizzy and woke up a little late, sorry...

Chapter Forty-Five: The Divine Oracle of Guiding the Gods, The Confirmed Otherworld

The aura of the God of War swept across the entire world, and the scene of the sky being shattered to reveal the ancient starry river caused the worldviews of the Fire Mist and the Apostles present to be shattered and rebuilt.

Those scattered spectators in the distance, now that they've come to their senses, are displaying all sorts of reactions.

"Assis was blasted apart by a single punch?"

"Did the sky just break? Am I hallucinating?"

"How is this possible? It's the aura of a god! Could it be that a new god has been born!?"

This was the voice of the Flame Haze warriors and their contracted demon king, filled with surprise and uncertainty.

The Flame Haze warriors were still trembling from the astonishing sight they had just witnessed, while their contracted demon lord, Matilda, was gazing up at the sky as if questioning the meaning of life.
