Reincarnated as a goblin, but her mother is a white-haired elf?

"call out--"

The aurora borealis, carrying fragments of starlight, pierced through the clouds, ionizing the air along its path and sending out eerie blue arcs of electricity.

The humus layer beneath Ye Yan's feet collapsed with a roar.

He tried to activate the crimson mist to form a barrier, but found that the crimson mist was uncontrollably eroding his meridians.

The moment the phantom of the Taotie, formed from the crimson mist, collided with the aurora, blood rain suddenly fell throughout the forest.

Enraged, the mist beast opened its gaping maw, a dark red vortex tearing at the light stream, and countless shrieks like those of wronged souls echoed through the tree hollow.

However, the aurora core suddenly collapsed into a bright white dot, like the single eye of an ancient god opening its eyes.

"laugh--"

The spear of light that pierced through the heavens and earth pinned the phantom of the Taotie to the ground, causing the scales formed by the red mist to crack inch by inch, oozing out thick, tar-like black blood.

Where the shockwave swept, a ginkgo tree that took three people to encircle snapped in half, and pale white flames ignited on the broken edges of its growth rings.

Carlos was thrown into the moss by the blast wave, and foul-smelling muddy water filled his nostrils.

He struggled to sit up, his pupils reflecting the crimson vortex gradually forming amidst the smoke and dust:

"He must die!"

The roars mixed with coughed-up blood stained the venomous spider patterns embroidered on the robes.

Hilaya landed on the charred tree stump.

She stared at the eerie red at the center of the vortex, and suddenly remembered the crystal ball on the astrological instrument that shattered three days ago—a noose woven from the intertwined trajectories of the stars, now tightening around everyone's throat.

The moment the smoke and dust cleared, all sound ceased abruptly.

Ye Yan knelt on one knee in the center of the circular pit. A charred, penetrating wound ran from his left shoulder to his ribs, but what gushed from the wound was not blood, but boiling red mist.

The mist twisted into hundreds of thin snakes, greedily devouring the still-burning embers of the aurora.

Behind him, countless blood-red vertical pupils opened on the half-cut maple tree stump, and the roots slowly writhed as if they were alive.

At this moment, apart from his hair being a little messy and his clothes being a little torn, Ye Yan did not appear to have suffered any serious injuries.

The only difference is what's behind Ye Yan.

A pair of blood-red wings have appeared!

Those were the same wings as the Elf Princess's, except the Elf Princess's were gold, while Ye Yan's were blood red.

Xi Ke's sinister smile froze on his face.

"How is that possible!"

Carlos's voice became shrill.

"He's still alive!!"

Shock was also written all over Hilaya's face.

"not good!"

Realizing something, the elf princess's expression changed drastically, and she retreated rapidly.

But it was too late.

The crimson, collapsing aurora borealis, carrying the power to destroy the world, hurtled towards the elf princess.

"Damn it!"

The fairy princess cursed inwardly.

But nothing can be changed now.

The crimson aurora moved with lightning speed, arriving above her head almost in the blink of an eye.

"boom!"

With a deafening roar, the pillar of blood slammed into the elven princess.

The immense impact sent her flying backward like a rag doll, crashing heavily into a distant mountain wall and creating a huge hole in it.

Ye Yan's attacks did not stop there.

After crashing through the mountain wall, the column of blood returned, like a giant, bloody python, relentlessly tearing at the fairy princess's body.

"Damn it, this guy really is a monster. After it absorbs a move, it immediately analyzes and copies it!"

"Logically speaking, the power of gluttony doesn't possess any particularly strong analytical capabilities."

"If Gluttony, which devours everything, possessed powerful analytical abilities, the previous Gluttony monarch would not have died."

"So, this guy acquired the exclusive skill 'Sage' under the 'Wisdom' category?"

"Damn it!"

Suddenly realizing something, the elf princess felt a pang of regret, wishing she had killed that man instead.

Of all the ways to die, I had to be eaten by this little glutton.

This created such a monster.

But it was all too late.

The terrifying Honkai Beam is shattering her last line of defense.

She had to fight back with all her might.

"Pfft. Pfft"

Strands of bright red blood spilled from her mouth, pooling on the ground to form streams.

Finally, the power of the blood pillar was exhausted, and she collapsed to the ground, looking up at the boy standing high above.

"this……"

The elven princess murmured, her eyes filled with disbelief: "A vow?"

Ye Yan calmly looked down and indifferently declared:

You lost.

"Heh... Hahahaha..."

The fairy princess covered her mouth and suddenly burst into laughter.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Do you believe in fate?

Although Ye Yan did not answer the fairy princess's question, his indifferent gaze was like that of a high and mighty god, looking down on everything.

The fairy princess knew.

That's the look in the eyes of someone in a superior position towards someone in a subordinate position.

That was the way a master looked at a servant.

That's the way God looks at people.

Does he believe in fate?

No, he never believed in fate.

From the moment he was born, fate had never been kind to him.

Abandoned by her biological parents, abused by her adoptive parents, bullied by her peers, abandoned by the world, and murdered by her "mother" in her previous life.

He never believed in fate.

His destiny is in his own hands.

Ye Yan did not answer the fairy princess's question.

But from those eyes, the elven princess could not discern—

You don't believe in fate.

The elven princess gazed at Ye Yan with her golden eyes and spoke his innermost thoughts.

"But, in this world, there exist things that can never be obtained, never be abandoned, and never be lived with—"

"This is fate."

"But I can control fate."

"What do you want to say?"

Ye Yan slowly raised his hand, and blood mist condensed in his palm.

"I am saying that you will inevitably be unable to prevent the separation from your mother today."

The elven princess's lips curled into a strange smile, her words carrying a chilling power.

"This is fate." Fate.

"Indeed, it is your destiny."

Her words, like a spell, echoed in the air, seemingly about to be etched into reality.

The words were spoken.

boom!

A huge black figure, like a demon in the night, suddenly descended from the sky.

Ye Yan's eyes narrowed, and without hesitation, he raised his hand. Blood mist boiled in his palm, surging and devouring the black figure like a greedy beast.

With his other hand, he slashed at the elven princess with a whooshing sound, his fingertips crackling with crimson lightning.

Click!

Almost at the same moment, the ground suddenly shook violently, as if the earth's crust was groaning.

A gray, undead aura instantly enveloped the ground, chilling and despairing, swallowing all life around it.

Countless skeleton knights, wielding rusty weapons, burst forth from the cracks in the ground, like messengers from hell, standing in unison between Ye Yan and the elven princess.

At almost the same moment, the fairy princess took advantage of the sudden chaos to distance herself from Ye Yan.

She stood atop the broken rocks, her golden wings fluttering slightly, surrounded by a faint light, like an untouchable phantom. (End of Chapter)
