Their romance storyline only begins on the second playthrough

She wouldn't dare say anything about characters like Felicity and Natalie, but Cecilia, a villain even worse than her, is a different story.

The most crucial point is that Cecilia has been provoking her again, how could she possibly tolerate it?

“I won’t let you go?” Cecilia’s eyes were also terrifyingly cold.

At least Rhodes could clearly sense that something was wrong with the two of them.

What were they talking about outside when he went in?

Damn, he now felt that these two girls beside him were the real danger compared to Charlotte.

Rod immediately shouted:

"Alright, let's get out of here first, don't stay in danger."

“…Oh.” Cecilia released her hand first.

She was just testing the waters and playing around; she wouldn't actually be so willful as to do something bad at a time like this.

After all, reclaiming her other body is also quite important to her...

The moment she released her grip, Lilith's eyes merely swept over Cecilia.

Without lingering, Lilith instantly carried Rhodes and sped away, directly breaking out of the [Forgotten Space].

As Rhodes and his companions disappeared from this space, the mutation of the [Chrysalis] reached its maximum extent.

It expanded and grew, with countless storms surging forth from its core.

At the same time, the girl in the center of the pupa opened her eyes.

God's gaze returns to the human world.

Chapter 127 The Truth About Lilith - Charlotte (4.2k)

Stasen Holy Academy

"Traces of the gods!"

The marine inhabitants watched the azure light piercing the sky with delight.

Even the students in the square were stunned.

After all, this scene was simply too grand.

The earth shook violently, and the clouds in the sky were twisted into a strange, lightning-colored mass.

An endless, surging power erupted, enough to crush them. It was impossible not to be stunned by the presence before them.

At this moment, Rhodes and his companions, emerging from the doorway, resembled that terrifying being born from a miracle.

Rod felt as if Lilith was about to tear his hand off, and he quickly shouted:

"Okay, you can stop now."

"Hmm." Lilith slowed her pace, but still held onto Rhodes' hand.

Lilith's hands were soft and small, making Rhodes want to bully them.

However... she is trembling slightly now.

It wasn't because she was afraid of facing so many humans and deep-sea creatures; after all, as a goddess, she had seen countless sacrifices.

The problem is that she is currently holding Rod's hand in front of many people.

Despite her instinctive urge to loosen her grip, she stubbornly held on, refusing to let go no matter what.

This scene naturally caught Rhodes's eye.

It's truly enticing; Lilith is changing little by little.

Rhodes turned to look at Lilith, and the more he looked at her, the more he felt that she was not at peace at all.

"What's your current state?" Rod couldn't help but tease her, even though he knew it was bad, he just couldn't resist teasing her a little.

"I...it's nothing, it's normal." Lilith paused slightly, still trying to conceal the truth in her heart.

“Really? But your hands are shaking.” Rhodes added, looking at Lilith’s increasingly reddened earlobes.

"I..." Lilith was completely speechless, her whole body trembling with embarrassment. "No, it's because..."

Well, there's no way there's even an excuse.

After all, she's too easy to understand now, and Lilith herself understands it too.

She could only shut up and say nothing more.

Otherwise, she was afraid that if she said one more word, she would mess things up again.

Seeing this, Rod smiled.

However, at the same time, the deep-sea creatures standing in front of Rhodes and his companions began to move, drawing Rhodes' attention back to them—

"Rhodes Chivenlance." Mirador jogged up, his face showing obvious anxiety, and approached Rhodes and the others. "Where is Lord Deep Sea God?"

"Repair complete. Let her come out on her own." Rhodes glanced behind him and said calmly.

"You..." Mirado wanted to say something to praise him, but the words stuck in his throat.

Because it was too fast, and too smooth.

It hadn't been two hours since Rhodes and his group went in.

In such a short time, the Deep Sea God's problem has already been solved?

After the matter was handled safely, she was actually still a little hesitant to believe it.

After all, the chances of successfully purifying the Deep Sea God by having Rhodes do so were not high from the start.

This is true.

Everyone has their own agenda.

For Mirador, even if Rhodes died, he died within the Linlank Empire, so what did it have to do with the sea-dwelling species?

Furthermore, even if the Melanie Empire were truly enraged, they couldn't possibly find them hiding in the deep sea.

However... there is no need to consider these assumptions anymore.

The fact that now lies before them is that their god [in human form] has returned.

"Go and release all the students in the square," Mirado waved his hand, beckoning to his subordinates.

The fish-like, four-times-ascended marine creature made a squeaking sound, then thumped along on its webbed feet toward the plaza, and began to shout and squeak.

"Your Deep Sea God hasn't even come out yet, and you're already keeping your promise?" Rhodes raised an eyebrow.

“Whatever the Deep Sea Goddess’s thoughts are, at least this is the initial agreement.” Mirado shook his head. “Of course, if the Deep Sea Goddess comes out later and says she’s going to kill you all, then we will still obey her orders, but that’s a different matter.”

“One thing at a time,” Rod replied casually.

Rhodes was well aware that Charlotte would never betray him unless she was mentally unstable.

but.

Rhodes paused for a moment, then realized that someone was missing from his side.

Where is Cecilia?

He looked around and discovered that Cecilia had long since vanished without a trace.

However, he could still sense her location through the [Servant Contract]; she was currently at the edge of that barrier.

"Her? She's probably gone to put her own body away." Lilith replied calmly. "After all, she wouldn't want to give up her second body to you, otherwise the probability of you killing her would already be one in six."

“Ah, is that so?” Rhodes stroked his chin.

However, Rhode didn't even have time to think before Cecilia's location in his mind moved closer to him again, as if she had already disposed of her body.

After all, as long as there is a certain distance, she can avoid being controlled by Rhodes, so she doesn't need to carry it too far.

It will be enough for her to wait a while, transfer her soul to another body, and then run away.

Meanwhile, before Cecilia returned, an even more powerful light instantly caught Rhodes and his companions' attention.

After the burst of light, the pillar of light that had been churning in the sky began to dissipate towards the earth as if it were melting.

The droplets of energy shattered into water droplets, falling onto the people standing in the square, nourishing the bodies of Rhodes and the sea creatures.

In that instant, the evolution of the [Deep Sea God] was completely completed.

A divine aura, carrying an imposing sense of authority, emanated from Carmen's gates. Finally, a young woman in blue gracefully stepped out.

Her thin skirt trailed to the ground, and in the sunlight, her skin appeared as white as mutton fat jade as she walked down from the high platform step by step.

Charlotte Sinclair's mortal spirit form possesses one-twentieth of her original power and is one of the twelve gods, ranking sixth.

Hmm... However, once her aura truly entered Rhodes's senses, he clearly felt something was wrong.

weak.

It's a bit weak; it's definitely not even one-twentieth of the strength you'd expect.

"Lord Deep Sea God!"

Mirado immediately knelt on one knee, and behind her, thousands of marine creatures also knelt on the ground, kowtowing with tears streaming down their faces.

Charlotte simply nodded lightly without opening her mouth.

An electromagnetic-like sound emanated from her, instantly translating into her mind as if it were a rape of her brain—

[Yes, you all, get ready to take me back to the deep sea to restore my remaining power.]

"Lady Charlotte?" Mirador finally snapped out of his daze and looked up at Charlotte.

She was too excited to notice it at first, but upon closer inspection, she realized that although Charlotte's power had divine attributes, it was clearly inferior to that of an Eternal Sage who had ascended seven times.

[Because the ritual was interrupted,... the current power recovery is limited.]

[We need to return to the main island to repair it.]

"I see!" Mirado understood instantly and nodded. "Your people will escort you back to the deep sea immediately."

Charlotte didn't reply to Mirador, but simply walked down the steps one by one.

Finally, she stopped in front of Rhodes, her eyes blinking slightly.
