Unable to repay my student loans, I had no choice but to work part-time as a demon hunter.

Gordon focused entirely on the battle and became completely distracted.

This was the first time he had seriously intervened in a battle between superhumans, standing before a domain-level ability user.

"No—!" Olivia's screams rang out one after another.

Tens of thousands of iridescent waters lashed against her massive body like metallic raindrops, causing her to scream in agony!

Tumors bulged from her body, then burst open like sea anemones, spurting out disgusting, thick blood plasma that splashed onto the walls and floor, creating a colorful and indistinguishable mess.

"Good!" Gray shouted.

Watching Olivia's enormous body being continuously corroded and twisted, he felt an immense sense of satisfaction.

Then comes the excitement!

He kept pulling the trigger, firing at her.

Taking this opportunity, Gordon swung the Void Flow Demon Sword, and the silver water suddenly transformed into a sharp blade, severing the tentacles and saving Vera.

"..." Vera fell from mid-air, bracing herself with one hand.

Her coat was torn; if it weren't for the dragon lizard scale armor, those heavy blows would have rendered her immobile.

After landing, Vera just kept her eyes on her, unable to get close for the time being.

The deeply alienated Olivia is terrifying!

Her face had merged into her torso, and her new mouth was squeezed into her chest and abdomen, like a multifaceted monster. One mouth screamed, another vomited, and yet another was still calling out!

Pain and a hint of horror swept through Olivia's heart as countless spawning eyes stared at Gordon.

The power to control the source of water...

Such a vast range of control, such precise manipulation capabilities...

Could it be related to the birth ritual of the tides?

Judging from this amazing effect, the amount of the source matter must be considerable, and Gordon is able to master it skillfully!

She once sent Kroger to hunt down Gordon, when Olivia thought Gordon was just a clever young man.

Now, he has not only come to her, but has also caused the greatest destruction to date!

"Gah!"

Morrigan let out a sharp cry, her massive bone wings sweeping across both sides of the corridor as she strode toward Olivia. She lowered her enormous, pale beak, pecked down, and then tore her apart. Countless white crows flew in from all around, following suit and devouring the flesh and blood.

Within seconds, the crows had torn off large chunks of flesh.

:

but……

For every layer they destroyed, two more layers of flesh grew inside Olivia's body.

"roar!"

Before long, Olivia's heavy body had transformed into a large, indescribable mass of colorful flesh.

She stretched out dozens of limbs that kept flying in the air, sweeping in all directions with wet, sticky fluid.

boom!

Morrigan was hit head-on, her body quickly falling backward, bones and wings exploding in all directions.

Gray stood amidst the rubble, his pupils contracting, his face turning completely grim.

"You bastard!"

"Retreat!" Gordon quickly ordered as he saw Olivia completely lose her temper.

Olivia arched forward.

She was like a swollen balloon of flesh and blood, rolling forward with a rumble, her whiskers sweeping across the battlefield at incredible speed.

Vera swung her sword fiercely, severing several smaller limbs.

Then, a super-heavy fleshy tentacle, three times larger than her, lashed out. Vera raised her sword to block, but the next second she was violently sent flying, rolling twice on the ground before gritting her teeth and getting up.

"Gah—" Seeing this, Olivia became even more excited and continued to arch forward, creating huge cracks in the ground wherever she went, turning into a rolling mountain of flesh!

Gordon took a deep breath and steadied himself.

"Come to Mommy!"

Olivia extended a bright red umbilical cord from her belly and sped toward Gordon.

The umbilical cord was thin and covered with strange veins. At its end was a fully open baby eye, staring intently at Gordon.

"Here it comes!" Gordon pulled a bottle of colorless, transparent potion from his pocket, threw it into the air, and shattered it with the Void Flow Sword.

The poison of common death!

Gordon swung his sword again, the poison coating the blade and forming a colorless, cold light on the edge, like a fine metallic plating.

He took half a step forward and swiftly stabbed at the umbilical cord, precisely piercing that hideous eye.

laugh!

:

Gordon flicked his wrist and quickly poured the potent poison into the wound.

It contains a strong image of death, which now penetrates into it and returns to the body along the direction of nerves and blood vessels.

The umbilical cord shrank instantly. Wherever the venom passed, the proliferating tissues stopped twisting and turning, the flesh stopped growing abnormally, and the color turned grayish-white and became brittle. Olivia's swollen organs also lost their luster and collapsed inward.

Olivia's body trembled violently.

"What...is this...?!"

Vera raised her head, took a deep breath, and without holding back, unleashed her full power to activate her source essence, even more decisively than before.

[Domain Expansion: Blood Moon Forest]

A dozen or so pitch-black trees suddenly appeared in the corridor, covered with scarlet eyes.

Then, all eyes turned and stared intently at Olivia.

A blood moon appeared in the sky above the chapel, its red light shining through the broken parts of the building and illuminating Olivia, making her feel that her weaknesses had nowhere to hide.

And then...

Fate has brought it to an end!

Several phantom chains flew out swiftly, locking onto Olivia's massive body and marking countless weak points on it.

Vera's figure also disappeared rapidly, and she quickly advanced.

How could this be!

Olivia panicked completely.

She could only see a sudden, dark afterimage, its whiskers flapping in vain, always a step too late.

He could only watch helplessly as she approached!

Vera lowered her body, leaped, and put all her strength into it.

Spike! Protrude!

—Slice open Olivia's abdomen!

Her flesh and blood grew wildly, but could never close up again.

Azure blood spurted outwards, hitting Vera. She immediately turned to the side, but the skin not covered by her armor was still quickly burned with several melting holes, causing excruciating pain!

Gordon took over, passing the Divine Thread over Vera's shoulder, deep into Olivia's abdomen, finding the Holy Grail, and repeatedly wrapping it around with the fine thread.

Then...

:

Pull it out!

The thread of God taut instantly, pulling the Holy Grail out, sending it flying into the air before it landed.

It should have been stained with blood, but the liquid inside remained transparent.

"ah!!!"

Olivia let out the most agonizing scream she had ever heard!

Her massive body crashed forward, tons of flesh and blood slamming down.

boom!

The shockwave shot outwards, blasting Vera more than ten meters away.

"Hoo..." Vera rolled to her feet, and her domain dissipated.

The forest, the blood moon, and the eerie trees with giant eyes all vanished.

"Vera!" Gordon rushed over and hugged Vera tightly.

"..." Vera opened her eyes, feeling Gordon's chest, and slowly closed them.

"It's alright, it's alright..." Gordon used the Tide of Rebirth to heal her severely eroded neck and arms, carefully rebuilding the badly burned flesh and squeezing out the remaining Mother Fluid of Rebirth.

The severed blood vessels slowly healed, the gruesome wounds began to heal layer by layer, and new, pale skin slowly emerged.

Eve walked past the two of them.

She took a deep breath, channeled her last bit of primal energy, and formed a massive white fireball, its brightness almost illuminating the entire chapel and turning half of the underground cavern as bright as day.

"Goodnight," she whispered.

Then, Flame Star flew out!

boom!

A white light engulfed Olivia.

The enormous fleshy body exploded with a roar, and high-temperature fire pillars spewed from all the wounds. The iridescent mother fluid quickly evaporated into a gaseous state, and colorful steam rushed up the corridor dome.

Olivia's body collapsed downwards.

Her muscles rapidly carbonized, her bones cracked in the flames, and her enormous octopus body shrank back to human size, until only the silhouette of a woman curled up in the white flames remained.

"Wait...! No... it can't be..." Eileen staggered forward.

"Stop!" Shirley grabbed Eileen's arm. "Don't run around!"

:

"No! Let me go! Please!" Eileen struggled to break free.

Shirin followed Ellen, observing carefully to prevent Ellen from throwing herself into the fire.

At this moment, Olivia's body had returned to the size of a normal human, turning into a humanoid burning flame, and was still burning further.

Olivia's burning head looked at Ellen, opened its charred mouth, and said nothing more.

After the last flame burned out, he turned into a pile of black ash.

Eileen couldn't help but shed tears.

Gordon sat on the ground, holding Vera tightly, and remained silent.

Eve stepped over them, across the still-warm ground, and gracefully approached Olivia's burned remains.

Eileen was already sobbing uncontrollably, while Eve bent down and picked up the dark red crystal that had condensed in the flames. Inside was a drop of liquid, which was still struggling and jumping, but could not jump out of the crystal wall.

"You..." Ellen looked up with tearful eyes, staring in horror at Eve's actions.

"Does it feel painful? If it does, then it's right. Use your body and mind to experience the emotions of this moment, such as excruciating pain, despair, and confusion... You must have seen these words before. They seem light and airy on paper, but now they are engraved in your soul and have their own weight."

Eve stroked Ellen's hair, feeling a continuous shiver run through her fingertips.

Eileen's face was deathly pale.

"Alright," Shirley reminded her, "there's no need for that."

Eve curled the corners of her lips into a smile.

She took the Source and the Holy Grail, then turned and walked back to Gordon's side.

"Could this be a valuable piece of dead-born material?"

Gordon looked up.

The source material appears as a dark red pentagonal crystal, inside which is a drop of water that seems to be constantly pulsating.

He instantly felt a sharp pain, as if he were being burned alive by flames, with endless heat burning inside his body and steam shooting out from his pores.

Is this what Olivia felt in the moment before she died?

[A unique, small-scale source substance - "Burning Water." It can overheat liquids and cause them to boil rapidly. It can also give the user's tears extremely high temperatures. Some waters are not gentle, and some things are unforgivable.]

The inexhaustible Holy Grail. It brings blessings, purification, and regeneration, as well as unparalleled fertility.

Gordon took a deep breath.

The power to ignite water instantly...

:

This source material seems to have many ingenious uses.

If power could be injected into an enemy's body, even just vaporizing a section of blood vessel could cause a destructive effect of steam expansion, tearing blood vessels and internal organs apart. However, it is unclear whether the tide of fate can completely digest it.

"Let's keep it for now. We can consider how to divide the spoils later." Gordon sealed the source material away.

"And this one?" Eve wiped the dust off the inexhaustible Holy Grail and carefully examined the water inside.

"Also, seal it away. It's best not to drink anything taken out of Olivia's stomach right away."

"Chirp chirp." Mouse was almost scared to death by the scene just now.

A mountain of flesh was cooked right in front of it; such a thing is rare.

If being assigned to a position means facing life-or-death situations every day, then the Rat Bar needs to reconsider its approach.

At that moment, the sound of orderly footsteps came from below.

Imperial soldiers swept through each floor.

"The domain has completely disappeared!"

"Hostile superhumans, cease activity!"

"Forward! Forward!"

There were also many relatives of the people who had wet feet inside the chapel.

In the aftermath of the conflict, many people trembled, cradling children and carrying the wounded. Others knelt on the ground, praying before the statue of the Fisher King, repeatedly chanting that distant name.

Knight Ovid led a group of Royal Anglican knights to the upper level of the chapel.

They were prepared for a brutal conflict, but the scene before them was still far beyond their comprehension.

A massive impact mark running through the building, a collapsed corridor where a giant creature had been, abnormally high indoor temperatures, and iridescent water vapor condensing back onto the ground from the air...

Olivia's body had turned to ashes, but the devastating destruction caused by the giant octopus was still awe-inspiring.

The person capable of subduing this monster is clearly more powerful than the monster itself...

"By Saint Joshua!"

"What happened here?!"

"Olivia was defeated?! You did it?" The Knight Commander's eyes widened, his tone incredulous.

"Yes." Gordon breathed a sigh of relief.

Ovid was deeply moved.

:

In the archives, the mistress of Green Shade Mansion is recorded as an extremely high-threat Domain-level ability user, possessing a complete Domain, powerful control abilities, the shapeshifting ability bestowed by the Fishing King, and the infinite regeneration ability provided by the Holy Grail.

They arrived as quickly as possible, prepared for a tough battle.

As a result, Vic's team successfully killed her!

Such a record is undoubtedly the best after Scarlett!

Recalling the tremendous roar, tremors, and flames, the knights couldn't help but pay their deepest respects to Vic's squad.

"The Empire and the Church will remember your deeds! You have defeated a dangerous heretic!" Ovid exclaimed.

"And remember Morrigan's sacrifice." Gray walked to the spot where the Corpse Raven had once stood and murmured with emotion.

"Morrigan?"

"My beloved." Gray held a flock of white crows.

Ovid glanced at the remaining crows at the scene and believed that the bishops would not support such complicated emotions.

"May Saint Joshua bless you; you may find this useful." Knight Ovid nodded, left a box of crucial medicine, and departed.

"Farewell, Sir Knight." Shirin greeted them, then picked up the box and opened the brass clasp.

In addition to the usual supplies including regeneration remedies, sobering salts, and bandages, there were also two bottles of calming remedies in the innermost compartment to accelerate the recovery of mental energy.

"The church must be rich." Gordon immediately downed a bottle.

The cool sensation entered his chest and abdomen, and his mental energy, which had been drained by the large amount of rain, began to recover.

Eve also drank a bottle to recover from the massive energy expenditure, and her persistent burning nerves gradually calmed down.

He touched the rat, put a first aid patch on it, and wrapped it in layers of bandages. It felt a little better then, let out a long squeak, and lay down on the ground, motionless.

Everyone was exhausted.

Time passed by, second by second.

Gray looked around.

The overall situation has been largely settled, and they can now go back and get some rest.

"That was a beautiful victory, I think..." Gray turned to Gordon.

Suddenly, a slight tremor came from beneath my feet.

Boom boom...
