The world doesn't need succubi to save it.

Blood-red liquid quickly seeped from the cracks and fell to the ground.

Accompanied by the sound of shattering, blood rained down from the ground where the god fell.

The rain poured down, as if mourning the complete demise of a deity.

It proclaimed her death and mourned her passing.

The awakened saints fell silent at the sight, unable to believe what had happened.

Why... why did this happen?!

"Why would a god fall at this time?! Our lords have disappeared; have they truly encountered danger?"

While the saints were immersed in an atmosphere of sorrow, someone laughed wildly in the rain.

Looking up, I admired everything before me.

"Hahaha... As expected of a god, what a grand display!"

Even though she herself had already died once.

Even now, she is merely a phantom of divinity remaining in the land of fallen gods after her physical body perished.

But those who mourn the dead are still deities.

Unlike the false gods who fell in the Land of Star Chaser, she was a true god recognized by all spirits.

The true gods.

And now, she has completely fallen.

In the hands of a mortal, it met its final demise, with no chance of resurrection.

Ning Feng looked up, watching the blood rain fall from the sky, and shook his head with a sigh.

"However, this rain is rather boring."

Blood rained down from the sky, but not a single drop landed on him.

Ning Feng did not actively use his magic to resist; he still wanted to be bathed in the rain of blood.

But the rainwater dared not get close to him!

Fear, the rain fears him.

Because... since the goddess has fallen, there must be someone who caused her to fall.

【God Killer】

Yes.

A thousand years after the gods disappeared, in the land where the gods fell, a true god-slayer appeared in the world.

【The Godslayer - Ning Feng】

Chapter 420 Godslayer

[A god-slayer, indeed, hasn't appeared for many, many years.]

After all, the gods have all disappeared, so where are the gods for the god-slayers to fight?

Watching the man standing in the rain, stretching out his right hand to try to catch the raindrops, the demon in the sky, who had been observing everything without intervening, chuckled softly.

[Hmph... Heh, so this is what worry feels like?]

Ariana, who was sitting on the celestial horse with her legs crossed, finally changed her posture and loosened her hands, which had been slightly clenched at some point.

Damn!

I actually felt a little nervous for a moment, which is a really strange feeling!

It felt unfamiliar, but not uncomfortable.

[I never thought I'd worry about someone like that. If I told Cecilia, she definitely wouldn't believe me.]

Ariana laughed happily as she imagined Cecilia's reaction.

She wouldn't just not believe it; she'd probably see it as the start of yet another conspiracy and be extra wary.

Can't you trust me a little more? Honestly! But it's actually fine if she doesn't change, after all, that's part of her charm~

Hehehe...

Poor Cecilia never understood something crucial.

That is, the more nervous and wary she is, the more Ariana wants to play pranks on her!

Cecilia's perfectly cautious reaction was the greatest encouragement to Ariana.

It makes the demon unconsciously feel that if he doesn't cause some trouble, he'll be letting down the angel's caution!

What should we do next time?

Withdrawing her thoughts from Cecilia and no longer considering how to persecute her, Ariana turned her attention to Ning Feng, who was standing before her.

【My dearest contractor in the world, you've once again pushed yourself into an even more dangerous world.】

To be an enemy of God.

Even though fate will eventually lead Ning Feng down this path, the choice he made this time has greatly shortened that time.

Moreover, he successfully buried a god completely.

Kill gods.

However, the title of "Godslayer" is not an honorary award that can be easily accepted without worry.

Godslayers are revered by the masses, feared by their enemies, and hated by the followers of the gods.

Moreover, not only are they killed by mortals, but god-slayers also enter the sight of the gods.

They became a thorn in their side, a special existence that they deliberately feared and guarded against.

For every god-slayer, the gods would not hesitate to eliminate him before he has fully matured, thus removing this destabilizing factor as early as possible.

Of course, those capable of killing gods are not weak. Apart from a very few lucky ones, every god-slayer has their own unique strengths.

However, a large proportion of those who kill gods are carefully cultivated and deliberately guided by hostile gods.

They bestow blessings, rewards, help, and even remove obstacles for them.

Through their meticulous planning, they selected the "destined heroes," those of divine scrolls.

The lives of these god-slaying heroes are dedicated to a single mission: to kill a certain god.

These poor puppets dedicated everything they had to the almost impossible task of killing a god.

Overdrawing one's potential, wasting one's youth, immersing oneself in a virtual reality, and ultimately sacrificing one's life.

Only a very small number of people in that group were able to accomplish this god-slaying feat, which had an almost zero chance of success.

But sadly, that wasn't the beautiful beginning of the happy life in legends and fairy tales.

For these god-slayers, what awaits them afterward is likely that the gods will seize the fruits of their victory and then casually discard them.

To the gods who ordained their fate, they were merely puppets obeying orders to take up arms and destroy the enemy.

Once the enemy is gone, these armed puppets should not be allowed to become a threat that could challenge one's authority.

The safest approach is to take back everything that has been given and render it harmless.

This is also why most Divine Scroll Masters don't live long.

When all the birds are gone, the good bow is put away.

The cunning rabbit dies, the running dog cooks.

The good news for Ning Feng is that he doesn't have a powerful backer controlling him; the few people who stand behind him are unconditionally supportive.

Obey the unknown relationship, the angel king of all commands.

Every day, he thinks about how to provoke the primal demon of the contractor.

A stargazer prays that the prophet will find the path to the future.

Compared to these three, Shirin, who only possesses legendary strength, seems rather pitiful and not even worth mentioning.

Moreover, the favor shown by these three individuals had reached the point of excessive indulgence towards Ning Feng.

We provide strength if you need strength, wealth if you need wealth, and support if you need support.

They give you whatever you want, and to some extent, you could even call it spoiling without anyone objecting.

Ning Feng had no worries, and even if he did, the three of them nipped them in the bud.

But the bad news is...

[It's still a little too fast.]

If Ning Feng has already reached a level above Legendary, no, even if he only has real and stable Legendary strength, then nothing will be a problem.

Ariana had no reason to worry about him at all.

Not only that, she would also whisper in Ning Feng's ear, urging him to do more, bigger, and more exciting things.

However, the undeniable fact is that Ning Feng is still too weak at present.

Logically speaking, Ning Feng has absolutely no ability to kill a god; there's not even the slightest possibility.

But he succeeded.

To be honest, even I was a little surprised this time.

Ariana had actually been prepared to lend her power to Ning Feng, but in the end she realized that she was just a spectator, completely watching what was happening and offering no help whatsoever.

Q: Ariana, why are you just watching?!

A: Because I really had nothing to do this time! He managed to do it himself!

When the dagger transformed into words of judgment, not only did the mourners fail to notice, but even Ariana was somewhat surprised.

Ariana admitted that she hadn't been fully focused on observation, but it was still astonishing that Ning Feng's illusion had fooled her.

But the question is... when exactly was it done?

In order to uncover this secret, Ariana pretended to ponder for two seconds before choosing the quickest method.
