Gripping the blade tightly, the purplish-black and scarlet colors reappeared, but this time, the ghostly hand and skull were gone, replaced by thorns and budding roses.

"Then let's begin. For my own sake, please die completely."

The girl raised her sword, aimed at the overwhelming monsters, and poured the vast amount of soul energy she had acquired into the sword. She swung it, and a large number of monsters, symbolizing fragments of consciousness, were swept away. More importantly, the flying sword energy cleaved the sky, leaving a scratch, and more divinity was absorbed by the girl.

Once she truly began clearing away the fragments of will, Maginus had no time to pay attention to the situation outside; at most, she would only glance inward to ensure her safety.

After the divine spark was fully ignited, the interference of the power of faith was almost negligible to the girl, but some of her more intelligent fanatics sent messages, giving them a small amount of power in response.

The fragments of mortal souls are being eradicated bit by bit, while souls from the outside world are being continuously bound into the spiritual dreamscape of Maginus. She devours the soul energy of everyone, just as she once said, using them as her nourishment.

Meanwhile, fewer people were observing the Blood Lake. The remaining people did not notice the rapid disappearance of souls. Unable to get too close to observe, they simply assumed it was a normal phenomenon, with the souls bound to this place beginning to disappear due to excessive consumption.

The fragments of the evil god's consciousness, facing a life-or-death crisis, finally reacted and tried to share their power with the souls that had entered the dream.

One by one, the souls began to twist and become like killers or dark guardians, drawing their weapons or swinging their claws as they charged at her.

But this was completely ineffective; with Maginus's conscious intervention, they were unable to cause the slightest disturbance.

Of course, there are also some more difficult cases. Those high-level spellcasters are quite resilient, and she needs to expend a lot of effort to deal with them.

"Magnus, spare me! I have so much wealth to give you!"

"Foolish me, if I kill you, all your memories will fall into my hands, and your belongings will be mine too."

She lunged at the spellcaster, slashing him in two with her sword. Maginus raised her hand to absorb the fragments of his soul, sifting out the useful memories. She sidestepped the attacks of the others, plunged her longsword into the ground, and rotated it slightly. Numerous blood spikes pierced through the attackers.

Wielding her psychic blade, Maginos donned a new long dress. As expected, she preferred dresses to armor.

Dancing gracefully in her own dream world, the girl pondered what her next step should be after her resurrection.

However, it seems like it will be a long time before he is truly resurrected.

Looking up at the gradually collapsing two-colored sky and earth, Maginus laughed happily.

This time she can truly eradicate the will of the two evil gods. It may take a long time, but she has plenty of time.

Chapter 445 A Dignified Resurrection

It was another sunny day. There were no living creatures around the calm Blood Lake, and the spellcasters who hoped to save souls had long since left.

No souls could be seen above the lake; they had all vanished. This was why the spellcasters had given up entirely. If even the people had disappeared, how could they be saved?

However, today, the tranquility of Blood Lake, which had lasted day after day, was finally shattered.

More and more bubbles continued to rise from the lake's surface, and the blood lake, which had been expanding, stopped its subtle erosion and began to shrink towards the center.

They wriggled towards the center of the lake like slime monsters, and the more they gathered, the more they solidified, slowly turning from a watery state into a gel.

Shrink, compress, fix.

After the life force of the entire lake stabilized, only a small area of ​​about 8 cubic meters remained, with numerous magical equipment and dimensional bags lying around it, all remnants of the attackers.

Life force writhed, and amidst the violent tremors, a right hand exuding a powerful allure burst forth from the life force, slowly supporting its body as it gripped the ground.

As the last bit of life force was gradually absorbed, specific limbs emerged, and the naked red-haired girl opened her golden-red eyes and looked up directly at the sun.

"...You're finally back. What time is it now?"

Maginus Imperius was finally freed from all constraints, gaining complete freedom of body and soul, and regaining her human form.

Raising her hand, she flicked out a long whip of life force, which hooked onto her belt and dimensional bag. The girl stood up and stretched her nearly 1.85-meter-tall body. She took out a suitable light armor from the dimensional bag and put it on. Looking at the surrounding scenery, she felt as if she had been transported to another world.

Her expression was no longer the indifferent one she had before; the combination of her slightly drooping eyes and upturned corners of her mouth made her seem like she was both laughing and crying.

The biggest change is in her figure; she has completely transformed from a young girl into a mature woman, exuding an aggressive yet exceptionally noble aura.

With her hands supporting her erect chest, Maginus generated numerous life force tentacles, picking up everything on the ground, sorting them and putting them into her dimensional bag. After dealing with her spoils, she lifted her leg and walked towards the Kingdom of Chrysanthemum.

This time, she no longer concealed or disguised her appearance and had enough confidence to deal with all dangers.

In any case, let's go and see some old friends first. I don't know how Kercia and Brian are doing.

E辍并崃VIII把祁1t-

"Those damned bastards, they should have killed these guys and those nobles who colluded with the drow back then!"

"Stop talking nonsense, let's find a way to regain the initiative as soon as possible."

Inside the royal study, Kxia watched her arguing confidants without making any comment. She raised her hand and gently pinched the cheek of the two-and-a-half-year-old elf child beside her, her eyes filled with maternal affection and her expression very tender.

"Your Majesty, what do you think?"

The advisors turned to look at their Queen with utmost respect, but she merely yawned and waved casually, saying, "Don't worry, someone will handle this for us."

Before receiving certain information, Kshia would definitely have worried for a while and tried to find a way to resolve the matter, but now, she just needs to wait for someone to come to her.

"Your Majesty, what do you mean?"

Those who hadn't received the news were filled with doubt, but Kexia casually said, "I just received news that the Blood Lake in the wasteland is gone."

The blood lake on the wasteland is gone...gone!

The officials and advisors were shocked; only one possibility came to mind.

No way...she really...

"Your information is quite accurate. I spent four days rushing over here, but you were the first to find out. You've grown a lot in the two years since I last saw you, Your Majesty Queen Kxia."

A magnetic female voice suddenly appeared in the study—no, it came from outside the window.

Kercia turned around abruptly. A "larger" version of Maginos, dressed in a long skirt, sat up in the window, grinning and looking at her. She was nothing like the bitter and resentful girl she once was.

Two years have passed since Maginus turned into a lake of blood, and Kxia, who has given birth, has become quite plump.

Looking at each other, both of them had changed a lot. Finally, it was Kxia who spoke up: "You've changed a lot too. I thought your time would have stopped two years ago."

Maginos Imperius!

The chair made scraping or clattering sounds as everyone present stared in horror at the suddenly appearing red-haired woman. Her stunning beauty and the unconscious aura she exuded were terrifying.

"You all go out first, Fran, take Mills away."

Waving for everyone to leave, Maginus glanced at the bewildered child, jumped down from the window, sat on the desk, and naturally asked the first question about Kercia and her husband:

"Where's Brian?"

Looking around, she couldn't see Brian. It wasn't just a simple look around; she spread her psionic energy throughout the city but still couldn't find any trace of him. Maginus felt she should prepare for the worst.

Kercia, who hadn't heard this name from anyone for a long time, was somewhat stunned. Gazing at the bright moonlight, she then stared intently at Maginus's face. With no other outlet for her emotions, tears welled up in her eyes, which she quickly wiped away.

"Come with me."

Upon entering the royal cemetery, Kercia stroked the tombstone amidst a sea of ​​flowers; it bore Brian's name.

“Brian, my husband… He died shortly after Mills was born, to protect me from the assassination attempt by the dark elves.”

The half-elf queen's face showed little sadness, but rather a deep sense of longing. Maginus was about to comfort her when he quickly recalled the state of elves after their deaths:

"Oh, so you managed to see him in Avando after his death?"

"Not yet, but I've asked my uncle for help."

Changing her previous nostalgic expression, Kxia stood up and approached the tall Maginus, looking up to meet her gaze. At the same time, she compared their figures and thought, "Hmm, Maginus is still better."

"What are you planning to do next? It seems like your wife is currently following Lenya Silvers."

"We won't be meeting for now; we have other things to do."

The spellcasters' memories from the past two years weren't for nothing; from them, Maginus obtained a lot of information about the locations of treasures and dungeons, as well as certain things about hostile nations.

She had already made up her mind: first, she would go to a certain dungeon alone to find an item, and then return to Nesery to plan the recapture of her country.

But before that...

Maginus tugged at her leather boots and turned to stare at Kercia: "You want me to help you deal with the unstable factors in your capital?"

"Please, I'll pay you. What do you want?"

“A small army, certainly not now.”

Kshia didn't agree immediately. After considering it, she calmly nodded and said, "Okay."

Chapter 446 Dialogue with Believers

Seeing that Kersia had agreed, Maginus returned to the study with her and reached out to ask for some lists, but Her Majesty shook her head and refused:

"The contract prevents me from taking action against them, or providing them with information."

"I understand, it means I can kill whoever I want."

Maginus nodded knowingly, raised his right hand high, and released his life force throughout the city, locking onto the enemy he wanted to kill.

Her actions puzzled Kercia. Come to think of it, even after they had been catching up, she hadn't asked Maginus about her actual strength.

"By the way, is your strength legendary now?"

"Normally, this isn't the case. With some of my special abilities, I'd say I'm at the very top of the high-level category, but even legendary characters would have a hard time killing me."

Maginus wasn't boasting; in her normal state, she was among the strongest high-level professionals, but as for her burst state... she hadn't tested it against a legend yet, so she couldn't make a judgment.

Having locked onto all those she wanted to kill, Maginus clenched her fists tightly. Whether they were asleep or still active, they all felt their hearts stop beating, clutched their hearts, collapsed in a daze, and then lost all life.

"Get me a room, I'll sleep here tonight."

Having dealt with the enemies in the capital whom he hadn't had time to kill two years ago, Maginus clapped his hands and said, "I've dealt with them." Kexia's pupils contracted slightly, and even as Maginus's friend, she couldn't help but feel a little suffocated.

Does she mean that with just a squeeze of her hand, all the people she wanted to kill were gone?

"Phew, I got it, Corrie!"

Kercia called out to the study door, and a maid entered the study. Maginus followed her into the empty room, took off her long dress, and stood in front of the mirror to observe her perfectly curvaceous figure.

As she reached out and touched her most sensitive spot, Maginus felt an even greater desire rise within her. After lying down on the bed, she closed her eyes and focused her attention on the divine spark.

Consciousness traveled through the threads of faith to a statue that belonged to her, where she locked onto a seemingly timid and down-on-her-luck girl among the praying crowd.

The girl had long brown hair and her face looked somewhat dirty. She was probably homeless as an orphan beggar. Her thin body made it impossible to tell what her appearance was like.

She imbued the statue with a very high quality of faith power, which also made Maginus aware of her presence.

However, their own beliefs were not fixed; they were mostly forced to believe, while also hoping that the statue could truly manifest its power.

This precisely illustrates that the girl has a strong soul, particularly in terms of perception, making her very suitable to be a priest.

May I have your name.

The message was being delivered to the praying girl. Lost in thought, she shuddered and looked around, but couldn't see who was speaking.

Tell me your name in your heart.

The magnetic voice echoed in her mind again, and the girl suddenly realized something. She quietly looked up at the statue of the god of death. The statue's eyes seemed to be staring back at her, which made her lower her head in a panic and excitement.

Great God of the Dead, my name is Meru.

Very well, Melu, tell me how you got here and why you believe in me, since you don't seem to have such a bitter and resentful look on your face.

During the following prayer time, Melu's understanding of her faith in God underwent a significant change.

The God of Death was completely different from what she had imagined. Rather than a high and mighty goddess, she was more like a caring older sister chatting with her.

Melu, who was not very involved in the matter, naturally knew that she should not tell strangers about her situation, but how could a god be a stranger? With a sense of awe, she explained why she had come here.

As Maginus had predicted, the original owner of the statue was a member of the underworld in the slums, and Maginus gave the statue to him because he had a strong desire for revenge.

He has been doing very well these past few years. Although Maginus has not responded for a long time, he still has some of his men pray for her, since it doesn't cost much money anyway.

Compared to other evil gods, her indifferent nature makes her more appealing to those with a thirst for power.

As an orphan and a beggar, Melu originally made a living under the leadership of a gang leader, either begging or stealing.

She used her powerful senses to slightly influence some people's attitudes, and her pitiful appearance allowed her to beg for enough money every day to eat her fill.

The opportunity to pray to the god of the dead is hard-won, since kneeling here for a few hours will earn you a black bread and a thick oat porridge, which is much easier than begging under the scorching sun.

Having identified the person who interested her, Maginos reconnected with the statue's owner through the statue, without speaking, but directly conveying a stronger life force to him.

They won't act on empty promises; only by feeding them the promises will they believe their god is truly effective.

The gang leader sitting next to the statue trembled, then his eyes flashed with wild joy, completely unaware of the strange behavior of the orphan Melu below.

So what is your wish?

Upon hearing the god's question, a flicker of joy crossed Melu's face, and she quickly prayed in her heart:

I want to eat delicious food every day, have lots of fun activities, and ideally, not be bullied by anyone...

Unfortunately, I am not a particularly benevolent god. In that case, I will first give you some power and the memory of using it. If you encounter danger, remember to call upon my divine name in your heart.
