The magic cards I made are absolutely flawless!

Len had never seen such a powerful person.

But in an instant, he realized the chilling, sinister magic emanating from this guy.

That was something Lunen could never forget: the lingering miasma-like aura from the devastation of the Holy Capital twenty-four years ago!

"Heh... So Lei really is under your control?"

Len shook his head and smiled sarcastically, as if he had suddenly figured out a lot of things.

Although there are many things that cannot be understood in a short time, that is no longer important.

The current situation is undoubtedly hopeless for him, making him feel extremely uneasy.

If Milia and Ludwig were both present, and Len fought desperately, they might still be able to defeat this formidable enemy.

But now, if all she wants is to kill Lenn, then obviously not making a futile resistance would minimize the casualties.

"No, no, Lei became my apostle voluntarily."

The female Chaos God shook her head, then simply took out a magic card and waved it in front of Lenn.

【Resurrection of Chaos】

[Category: Spell Card]

[Rarity: Orange Epic]

[Class: 9]

[Effect: Forms a contract with a target in a near-death state, granting them extended lifespan. Contract details: The target must complete a feasible task for the user without revealing their identity, and the user can control their body at any time.]

[Note: The power to wield life.]

Her playful expression seemed to say, "Hard to understand, isn't it? This orange color, and the power brought by this chaotic authority."

Back then, she turned the old Holy Emperor of the Holy Kingdom, who feared death and craved immortality, into an apostle, thus enabling her to influence the situation of the Holy Kingdom as she wished.

However, her plans were constantly being disrupted by Lunn and his three great dukes.

In the end, she was attacked on her own doorstep. Outnumbered and lacking confidence in defeating the peak-powered Lunn, she chose to play it safe and disappeared for more than twenty years.

She originally intended to wait until Lenn died before being born.

But this human is neither alive nor dead, and we don't even know if he might one day defy common sense and become even stronger.

And who knows if it will coincide with "that day".

Her new mission was to ensure that Lunn did not enter the tenth-tier shadow world.

So she began a new scheme: to control Lei, wait for the moment when a ninth-order shadow world would appear and Milia would be sent away, then use Lei to assassinate and test Lunen, and confirm Lunen's condition in the courtroom.

Finally, step by step, they waited for this moment when they could securely kill Lenn.

Now, she can finally enjoy this stable happiness and sense of security.

The once spirited and unstoppable Len now looks like an old king who has been stripped of everything, and despite wearing a magnificent robe, he appears more pitiful than a beggar.

Soon, even the last vestiges of this foolish human's life will be taken away without resistance.

"Your three dukes are really giving me a headache. But Morpes, who could help you keep the powerful and influential in check a few years ago, is no longer useful. The internal problems of the Holy Kingdom must be exhausting for you every day, right?"

Recalling the defeat of the Holy Capital back then, compared to this moment, she felt extremely happy and couldn't help but say proudly.

"You've even started to hear a lot of disparaging voices. Don't you think that's pathetic?"

"And Lei actually managed to track me down. It's just a pity that he couldn't escape by then, and he couldn't beat me either. In the end, I killed him in one-on-one, hehe."

The cat-and-mouse game with Lei was also the most unexpected battle she had fought during her twenty-four years of hiding in the Holy Kingdom.

She had already chosen to retreat from the Holy Capital, disguising herself as an ordinary person to secretly plot and remain hidden from the world, yet she was still found by the Holy Kingdom's secret agent following the slightest clues.

But while Ray was tracking her, she also became aware of Ray's movements from the shadows.

Ultimately, when they finally faced the higher-ups, Ray was already in a dead end and had no chance to seek help from Len and Delois.

"After realizing my power and understanding the fate of the Holy Kingdom... the way he ultimately chose to pledge allegiance to me is something I still remember vividly."

The only thing she didn't expect was that, after finally realizing the disparity between themselves and the enemy, the Holy Kingdom's secret agents chose to be pragmatic and prudent.

However, after gradually understanding Ray's personality, she also felt that the man's actions were quite reasonable.

It was an unexpected bonus that made her subsequent plans go much more smoothly.

"As for that last guy..."

"He was able to guess the truth so closely just now, but there was nothing he could do about it."

“Your Majesty, in your prime you needed a strategist who could devise a plan, but now that you are past your prime, what you need is an invincible knight.”

At this point, the Chaos God seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Lenn with great interest, asking:

"Of course, if Your Majesty Lenn is also willing to become my apostle, I would be happy to do so as well. I guarantee you can be emperor for a much longer time."

"..."

Lunn looked at the God of Chaos with a complicated expression.

He could tell from the expression on the Chaos God's face just now.

It seems that she never expected Lei to suddenly make a 180-degree turn and swear allegiance to her.

Lunn remained silent and fell into deep thought again.

"Oh, I see..."

After a long silence, Len finally spoke, as if he had figured everything out.

If Lei had chosen to remain silent after his defeat, perhaps no one would have been able to pass on the information about capturing the Chaos God with such difficulty.

With the Chaos God's unpredictable and mysterious powers, he will eventually find someone in the Holy Kingdom capable of plotting or assassinating Lunen.

Since that's the case, let Lei be the one to commit this major sin.

After all, for the Chaos God, Ray, who was absolutely trusted by Len and possessed great strength, was undoubtedly the best candidate that was hard to come by!

However, the one who stirred up the chaos, "other people," differs from "Lei" in one crucial aspect—

If it was Ray who assassinated Lenn...

This abnormal, unconventional behavior will definitely, absolutely attract someone!!

At the most critical moment, guide him to the most lethal position for the enemy!

"As expected, Lei beat you."

Lenn lowered his head and smiled slightly as he muttered to himself.

It's like finally getting a satisfactory answer.

"Heh, what are you talking about? He was clearly the one who made the wrong move, otherwise he wouldn't have died at my hands and become my apostle."

The Chaos God seemed to think that Lenn was talking nonsense before he died.

"Hahaha!"

Lunn seemed to have been amused by someone and let out a laugh, which made the Chaos God frown.

He looked up at the God of Chaos again and slowly raised his finger.

"First, Lei Sheng has an information gap with you; he is one of the few people in the world who know that I have a life-saving magic device."

Instead of rushing things, Lunn began to explain to the God of Chaos.

"So even if he tries his best to assassinate me, he won't kill me on the spot..."

"Secondly, only Lei, only Lei killing me, would force that guy to temporarily put aside even the most urgent matters and come to the Holy Kingdom to find us..."

"...?"

A strange unease welled up in the Goddess of Chaos's heart. She knew that Lenn was referring to the last honorary duke in the three-kilometer radius.

But that guy was weak; he had a brain but no power to stop her.

But why does Lenn seem to regard that guy as the key to victory?

The feeling she got now was... it seemed like Lenn had a backup plan!

Seeing the Chaos God's puzzled look, Lenn added another sentence for her:

Do you know who gave me that crown?

"Besides the Dark Saintess, who else could make something like that?...?!"

The Chaos God was about to say something, but suddenly stopped speaking, and his pupils began to contract violently.

She stared at Lenn in disbelief.

It's like starting to wonder if something is wrong with the world.

"Ha ha......"

"Hahaha......"

For once, Lenn laughed again, his voice gradually rising in pitch as if he were using all his strength and breath.

"That's right, I am an emperor who made a deal with the devil! Hahahaha! I stopped being a saint a long time ago!!"

As if he could finally openly reveal the secret he had kept hidden all his life, Lenn laughed heartily.

During his years as emperor of the Holy Kingdom, he was hailed as a saint. He had had enough of dealing with those foolish nobles who were oblivious to the dangers!

He had long wanted to be a demon king with unfettered will, just like Delois!

Those powerful and influential people who are in our way? Just kill them all!

"Could it be...?"

Just as the pupils of the Chaos God contracted.

It was as if a magic spell had been dispelled.

The emperor's bedroom was suddenly transformed into a completely different scene.

As if he were preparing for a final battle, Lenn sat up in bed.

But before anyone knew it, another figure appeared behind the Chaos God.

The figure's pupils shimmered like burning golden flames, flickering indistinctly.
