I was accidentally injured by God and I just want to be an ordinary person

As if testing Ella's reaction, Gluttony deliberately stopped, like a giant python eyeing its prey.

However, since she already knew that Gluttony had the ability to read minds, Ella naturally wouldn't do anything that would expose her own strength - such as imagining Camisia's level. She just watched Gluttony swaying from side to side vigilantly to prevent being ambushed like in the beginning.

"Hmph, you're pretty quick, aren't you? Even if Her Excellency the Demon Queen hadn't told me, I have a rough idea of ​​Camisia's strength. If she were to surpass the heroic realm, I wouldn't be able to resist her now. But... I don't know what magic Her Excellency the Demon Queen used to obtain this information about me, but as you already know, as long as I withdraw my power, even if Camisia comes, she won't be my opponent."

As he spoke, Gluttony floated to the cracked ceiling. The black cloud continued to grow larger, gradually occupying the entire hall, and the oppressive feeling before the storm surged into his heart.

Through the "low-level appraisal" just now, Ella mastered some of Gluttony's skills, including "Surface Consciousness Reading", "Follower Summoning", "Storm Summoning", "Lightning Direct Strike", "Thunder Hell", "First-level Magic Immunity" and "Duplicate". Although she didn't know why Gluttony wanted to disperse his power, judging from the fact that he could defeat Camisia by withdrawing his power, he would be at least level 62 after withdrawing his power - compared to herself, he was not a particularly difficult type to deal with.

"Oh my! My guests are coming soon, and I'm still here. How rude! If I waste time here, I'll be late. So, I'll excuse myself for now, Your Excellency the Demon King. If things go well, I'll take care of Camisia, and that way, the Western Demon Territory won't be a problem. I hope you won't be angry about this."

As he spoke, an ominous crackling sound came from the ceiling - as if the roof beams were about to break and the whole house was about to collapse. Then the black cloud gradually faded, and finally merged with the wall and disappeared into the hall.

Tifarian and Ella were left staring at each other in the shaking hall.

"That guy is the Mark of Original Sin?"

"That should be it..."

Having somewhat recovered her strength, Tifarian placed her hand on her lips and fell into deep thought.

"What does it want? If I understand correctly, it just said that it not only wants to take control of the Kingdom of Barris, but also wants to take the western demon tribe in the north and use it for its own purposes, right?"

"Wait, let's discuss the purpose later. The most important thing right now is to escape from here!"

The weapons standing in the corners fell one after another, and the ice covering the walls also peeled off one after another. From Ella's point of view, it would not be surprising if this place collapsed at any time.

"Ah, it's Miss Ella!"

"Little Ella!"

"Why are you still standing here, Senior?"

When Ella was about to escape from the exit with Tifarian, Luty, Angelica and Shen Gan also ran into the hall from the wooden door.

There was no time to ask what was going on. Ella could only wave to Lotte and the other two, signaling them to head straight for the exit, and then followed the instructions of the "Terrain Search" to escape.

Chapter 69: The Final Battle of Turmoil

*创世纪6187年2月11日 凌晨00：30分 杰奥斯城

The entire city of Zeos looked like the end of the world was approaching.

Dark clouds swirled and rose in the sky, and strong winds strong enough to blow away adults blew away countless roofs. Young people rushed to the city gate with large and small bags on their backs, while the elderly and children with limited mobility closed the door tightly and hid at the base of the wall at home. Fires and lightning flickered in the distance, and the ground shook irregularly from time to time.

The reason for all this, in addition to the black dragon pressing down on the city, was also the harsh warning that just resounded throughout the entire capital.

"Today, the city of Zeos will become history. Gluttony will wipe out all those who resist."

Naturally, despite Gluttony's devastating natural disaster covering the entire Kingdom of Barris, powerful individuals would always express their dissatisfaction at this time. Among them was the Crimson-class adventure group "Crimson Asta". In response, Gluttony simply responded with a lightning bolt that split the sky. As a result, all members of Crimson Asta were instantly shot down, leaving no room for resistance.

Since the incident happened right above the kingdom, this scene was seen by all the people who rushed to the city gate because of the black dragon incident. Under the pressure from both inside and outside, the whole city erupted in shouts that were almost riotous.

With the naked eye, dark clouds can be seen floating up from the ground of the Kingdom of Paris. Every time Gluttony absorbs a cloud, the oppressive feeling from the sky - the power of Gluttony becomes stronger. Gluttony's true form is what Marquis Sepro called "Nameless", and the reason why it can control humans is entirely because of its "clone" skill. Although creating a clone will cause Gluttony to lose levels, on the other hand, it will gradually modify the memories of others in the form of hints, making them lean towards its side.

Because of this skill, Gluttony's original plan was to subtly change the Kingdom of Barris and gradually bring it under his control. However, due to Ella's sudden intrusion, he had to change his plan, which was to simply rule by force. With Gluttony's strength in its full state, it was not difficult to do this.

Boom boom boom!

Finally, the ever-expanding "Eye of Loki" corroded the entire underground facility, and the ground, unable to withstand the pressure, collapsed downward, forming a huge pit.

The long escape finally ended. With her stamina almost exhausted, Ella threw the Fire Arrow aside, supported her knees with her hands, and gasped for breath.

"Ha-ha--finally got out. Everyone, are you okay?"

"No one was injured, and it seems the soldiers who were originally staying in the facility have all escaped."

Because she was exercising regularly, Lotte didn't feel tired at all. She looked around to respond. Although it was late at night, thanks to the flames in the distance, she could see the ordinary soldiers in the underground facility gathered around the open pit, looking like they had escaped by luck.

"That's good, but it's a pity that we didn't get any evidence of the collusion between Marquis Sepro and the Seal of Original Sin."

"Are you still thinking about those things at this hour?"

Tifarian frowned as she stood at the edge of the ruins. As the collapse of the underground facilities was still expanding, it was not a wise decision to continue staying here. However, just as Tifarian was about to let Ella and others go to a safe area, the entire city shook.

clang--

It was as if something had hit the city wall.

"Y-It's the black dragon! The black dragon is attacking the city!"

"Wait, it looks like the clouds in the sky are fighting a black dragon!"

"Is the kingdom really going to be destroyed..."

The soldiers who were originally rejoicing at their escape immediately panicked. All this was too fantastical and not like something that would happen in reality. The black dragon as big as a hill kept casting magic, bombarding the translucent defensive barrier protecting the city, while the thick clouds rolling in the sky swept across the city walls and the black dragon at the same time with dazzling lightning.

"what is that?"

One of the soldiers looked up at the city wall in the distance with surprise.

Following the soldier's gaze, Ella and her group also looked in that direction. The scarlet light gathered together like a gorgeous aurora, as if it would burst out at any time.

"Is that... a large magic cannon?"

Ella murmured softly. The current situation was that Vera and the others wanted to enter the city of Jeos to fight Gluttony, but because of the defensive barrier blocking them, they had to destroy the defensive barrier first. Therefore, the soldiers used large magic cannons to fight back against the black dragon. Coupled with the ordinary residents who rushed into the main roads because of panic, the whole city was in complete chaos.

Picking up the Fire Arrow again, Ella raised her head and tried to use "Low-level Appraisal" on Gluttony in the sky.

"No, I can't tell his strength at all. He must be over level 50."

"Ms. Ella, what should we do now?"

There was a hint of anxiety in Lotte's voice. Although she couldn't tell the extent of her gluttony, her subconscious was constantly telling her to leave quickly.

With a clang, Tifarian pulled out the golden rapier, her tired eyes filled with a strong will.

"I'm going back to the capital to find King Tovasarn and have him focus all his forces on Gluttony. If Gluttony continues, the entire city of Jeos will be reduced to ruins. I'll leave the Black Dragons in your care. If possible, please have them move the battlefield away from the city."

"I'm fine. I'll leave the magic cannon to Tifarian. I'll try to get Vera and the others to avoid the town. If possible, please have King Tovasarn redirect the magic cannon's target to Gluttony."

After quickly drinking the magic potion to restore her strength, Ella nodded heavily in agreement with Tifarian.

Tifarian hummed with satisfaction and turned her attention to the soldiers who were in despair because of the scene that seemed like a punishment from heaven.

"Soldiers of the Kingdom, if you still have any sense of duty as soldiers, stand up and follow me to protect the people of the Kingdom. The Kingdom needs you now. Do not hide in the corner like rats out of fear!"

"Is that...Princess Tifarian?"

"Why is Princess Tifarion in Marquis Sepro's mansion?"

"Don't worry about it. Even the princess can fight, so how can we men admit defeat?"

"Ah, never mind. At worst, I can go to the Marquis of Ars later."

"My wife is still home!"

"Then what are you still doing sitting here? Hurry up and grab your weapon and go find your wife!"

In the face of the disaster, these soldiers seemed to have forgotten where they belonged. They picked up their weapons, stood up, and followed Tifarian in an awkward and chaotic manner.

Then another group of well-equipped cavalry rushed into the ruins from the street.

"Lord Lekrik's troops, under Marquis Ars, are here!"

The team led by Lekrik also came to support, and the composition of the soldiers was almost exactly the same as those who went to the Baris Coast Forest.

The leader, Lekrik, looked around the ruins, then locked his sights on Ella, who was wearing a priest's uniform. He moved in front of Ella with his soldiers, leaned forward slightly, and stretched out his hand to pull Ella onto the horse.

"Ai... Your Excellency the Demon Queen, it is dangerous to remain in the royal castle. Please follow me to a safe place."

Although she didn't know why Lekrik knew her identity, Ella still shook her head. She had more important things to do than to go to a safe place - to get rid of the rampant gluttony.

"No need. Mr. Lekrik, please lead the soldiers to the city wall to evacuate the people. It's too dangerous to stay there. I will go deal with that with my companions."

As she spoke, Ella pointed the tip of her fire arrow at the gluttonous cloud circling in the night sky.

A look of loss appeared on the face of Lekrik, who was wearing mithril armor, but he recovered in an instant, sat upright on the horse, and bowed to Ella.

"...Is that so...Well, please take care, Demon Queen."

"Well, thank you Mr. Leklik for your kindness."

While Lekrik led the soldiers to rush towards the city gate, Tifarian also organized the temporary team.

"Well then, Elelaya, I will take the soldiers to Emperor Tovasarn first. I'll leave the matter of the black dragon to you."

"Well, leave it to me."

After exchanging glances, Tifarian left the slightly vibrating ruins with a stern expression and her long pink hair fluttering.

After returning to silence, everyone who had recovered looked at each other, waiting for Ella's proposal.

Although Ella, Luty, Angelica and Shen Gan are a force that cannot be underestimated on the continent, they are still somewhat insufficient in the face of a battle of this level. Even with Iris, they cannot defeat Vera in an incomplete state, not to mention that the current situation is completely out of control.

In Ella's personal opinion, the best solution now is to let the other three go find Camisia, and she will deal with Gluttony alone. However, saying that would definitely not be accepted by everyone, and there is no guarantee that Lotte and the others will not miss Camisia on the way.

When she was at a loss, a red meteor with a silver figure jumped down in front of Ella.

"Princess, I'm late."

"Ella-chan, what happened?"

Camisia, dressed in a dreamy white gown, knelt on one knee, while Iris frowned and looked up at the night sky—Gluttony, hovering in the form of a dark cloud, was brewing its momentum.

"We'll discuss the details later. Right now, the Gluttony Mark's cloud is preparing to attack Zeos City, and Vera and the others are preparing to enter the city to attack Gluttony. We just need to lure the Black Dragon and the Gluttony Mark out of the city, and we'll be fine. If possible, it would be best to help the Black Dragon eliminate the Gluttony Mark together. The Gluttony Mark just mentioned that it wants to attack the demons."

Hearing the words that they were going to attack the demons, Camisia, who had been keeping her head down, instantly raised her head, her purple eyes became sharp, and the Sword of Disorder was drawn out in an instant.

"You're actually planning to attack the princess's territory... Fufufu, even if it's the Seal of Original Sin, you can't pretend not to hear."

"Is that so? Lotte-chan and the others, come with me to evacuate the people from the streets. Ella-chan and Camisia will go deal with the Seal of Sin. Gluttony looks like level 60? Level 65? Even scarier than Mother when she's angry, it's probably at least level 70. It's definitely not something we can handle."

Compared with Camisia's anger, Iris shrugged casually. She chose to fight even though she knew she could not win. If she was not a death warrior, then she must have a problem with her brain. Obviously, the triggering conditions for the former were insufficient, and the latter would never happen to Iris.

Although reluctant, Lotte and the other two understood this and followed Iris reluctantly. As for why they didn't let Ella follow, it was because with the support of the Arrow of Fire, Ella could add very powerful enhancement magic and support magic to Camisia, and she also had the ability to protect herself at critical moments, so she could be regarded as 0.5 combat power.

"Ms. Ella, please be careful. I'll be waiting for you back."

"Little Ella, please don't do anything out of line."

"Senior, please take care."

"Yeah, don't worry, I'm very strong."

"Well, if you encounter danger, just run away, okay? I'll help even if the situation gets out of hand, though I don't want to be demoted."

While making jokes, Iris lifted up her silky silver hair.

"Anyway, it's up to you. Don't force yourself if you can't win. Let the Barris Kingdom handle its affairs. There's no problem. Although there will be heavy losses, it's not impossible to deal with. If the situation is not good, return to the Sacred Academy."

"I understand—Camisia, let's go."

"Yes, my lady."

Pulled up by Camisia's slender and long hand, Ella waved to everyone.

"Wait for my good news!"

Chapter 70 Chaos

*创世纪6187年2月11日 凌晨00：42分 杰奥斯城

Thick dark clouds were still gathering, and the slowly swirling lightning flashed continuously like a punishment from heaven.

Completely ignoring the crimson twintails and snow-white skirt being blown by the strong wind, Camisia, hanging on the edge of the city wall, looked at the scene and narrowed her eyes slightly.

"Although I can't recall what happened back then, this must have been the scene when the Demon King and the One God were fighting."

The murmur was swept away by the howling storm. Camisia paused and turned her gaze to Ella.

"Princess, do you think so too?"

"Eh? Ah... I think so. What's Camisia planning to do? Lure the Black Dragon and the Seal of Gluttony out of the city."

Since Ella didn't know what happened at that time, she could only change the topic.

The strength of the Mark of Gluttony has now exceeded expectations. Gluttony had warned before in the underground facility that even Camisia would not be its opponent now. Although now is a good opportunity to switch states and deal with the Mark of Gluttony - in the name of Entalosphiel - but to deal with this energy body covering the entire city of Jayos, only a large-scale annihilation magic can be chosen. In that case, not to mention whether the attack magic can be used successfully, whether it will accidentally injure civilians is a big problem.

The most crucial thing is that the sudden appearance of such a powerful person - who destroyed the Seal of Original Sin with a single blow of mysterious magic, and there is no record of this person, may cause panic in front of the public, and it may even be traced back to the fact that Entalosfeil is actually related to herself. Although Ella thinks she has hidden it well, she cannot be sure that there are no strange magics in this world.
