The Mythical Path of a Princess from a Destroyed Kingdom

"If you can deal with the disaster you and the Church of Darkness have caused before I do, perhaps the faith won't be lost. What do you say?"

In fact, Maginus knew their intentions when she discovered that they had approached the Church of the Moon rather than the officials of Mirror City.

It's nothing more than using material rewards to get her to work for the Church of the Moon, and rewarding her after she finishes working, but the credit and faith that follow belong to the Goddess of the Moon.

If Maginus had not fully digested her divinity, she would naturally have chosen material rewards, but now she needed to pave the way for her "ascension to godhood" and could not let go of the opportunity to seize faith.

Although she deeply respects these kind people, Maginus also needs to become stronger.

Not long after the Church of the Moon left, people from the city came to her door again. Maginus looked at the noble city lord with dark circles under his eyes and made his request.

"The faith in the God of the Dead can be spread openly, and at the same time, my deeds of fighting against the Church of the Dark Night and saving people can be disseminated."

Before the noble lord could ask, Maginus threw out a pamphlet containing the general outline of his doctrines.

No matter what happens, we should live on strongly and look for opportunities to become better versions of ourselves.

Everyone is on the road to death. As believers, we should not take the lives of others at will, and we should be fearless in the face of death.

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth; killing one's enemy is an act of sacrifice.

The noble city lord was somewhat surprised when he looked at the doctrine, mainly because it was too positive. He never expected that Maginus's doctrine would be so positive, advising people not to throw their lives away and not to kill indiscriminately.

He quickly made a decision and agreed to Maginus's request: "Alright, as long as you can handle the danger, I swear to the continent of Connoir itself that I will absolutely fulfill your request."

Chapter 454 The most dangerous place is the safest

Having received the city lord's permission, Maginus clapped his hands and looked up at the sky, preparing to set off immediately. However, he noticed several black dots in the sky. Hmm, it seems the Church of the Moon has already sent people to deal with the threat.

Since that's the case, Maginus isn't in a hurry and can go later, giving the Church of the Moon some time to deal with it.

She took out a snake ring pendant from her belt. The buzzing sound proved that there was also a Benia general store here. She quickly found the hidden shop by following the pendant and went inside. The snake-man lying on the bed suddenly tensed up and looked up at Maginus with some surprise.

"Long time no see, Master Nia."

After gazing at the mature woman before her for a few seconds, Nia chuckled with interest, then stood up, lifted her nightgown, and formally bowed to Maginus: "Ha... Nice to meet you, Lady Maginus Imperius."

After bowing, Nia lay back down on the bed and said casually, "I really didn't expect you to survive. You're amazing."

"What did you see in Wuyi Qimeng?"

Maginus was curious why Nya saw her and was about to bow. She yawned and casually said:

"The two auras that didn't belong to you have disappeared, and your overall aura has also become completely different. This can only mean one thing: the things that originally affected you in your body have disappeared."

“Yes,” Maggie Nustan nodded readily. “Is there anything I need to do, something that can be done in a few days?”

The Church of the Moon will definitely need time to deal with the problem, and Maginus doesn't really want to be idle during this time, so he might as well ask Nia to go and have some fun in other worlds.

“I thought you’d be in debt after becoming a legend,” Nia flipped through her ledger, found a few relatively easy tasks, and handed them over to her. “That’s all. Just kill, kill, kill and that’ll be it. You should be pretty good at that.”

"Okay, but I have another question. Do you know about this ruin?"

She told Nia the location of the ruins she had obtained from the memories of a high-level spellcaster, tapped her head to recall, and held up a long green hair as a finger, waving it around:

"I don't know, I've never seen it before. What's inside?"

"It is said that there is information related to the Maze Lock."

"I need your information, I have it, I guarantee it will open your eyes."

Maginus did not respond, but raised his head and gestured for Nia to switch spaces, while also explaining the situation in Mirror City.

Upon hearing about the legendary item, Nia immediately became interested: "Don't return it after you get it, let me see it."

"Let's see. We might have to rely on your grocery store to escape."

Five days later, Maginus, having enjoyed her trip around another planet, returned and opened the door to find that the surroundings had become darker, and there was no longer any trace of the Church of the Moon in the air.

They definitely failed; whether they died or not is debatable.

Maginos, who didn't care about their lives, looked up at the sky again, spread her wide wings and flew into the air for the second time. This time, no shadow tried to replicate her; it seemed that the people in Mirror City would only be mimicked once.

Upon landing in the mirror city, she folded her wings, activated her life force perception, and slowly explored the entire city. When she discovered a luxurious manor belonging to a noble family, an idea suddenly came to her mind.

Since the mirror image is a 1:1 replica, does that mean their treasure vault has also been replicated?

Arriving inside the luxurious manor on her own, Maginus opened the windows and doors, releasing her life force as she searched for the treasures of each household, picking up magical equipment filled with shadow elements and stroking her chin.

These magical equipment items were created temporarily. Under the influence and enrichment of the shadow element, they can indeed be used. Even if the same spell cannot be cast, they can still be used as blank magical equipment.

However, once they leave this environment, their unstable state will immediately collapse; they need a suitable vessel to stabilize them...

The replicated items are not connected to the original items, so Maginus can experiment freely and find the simplest way to handle them after trying various methods.

She simply used the bones she created to support these weapons; her bones were even better material than dragon bones.

One pale weapon or piece of equipment after another appeared in his hands. Maginus stored them all away, intending to use them as weapons for his elite army or suicide squad in the future. At the same time, he regretted the replicas of the potions and items.

While it's described as a 1:1 replica, the potions and items can't actually be replicated. Well, if it were possible to actually make one, it wouldn't be a legendary item, but rather something like a near-divine artifact.

Having acquired a considerable amount of free magical equipment, Maginus, after traversing most of the city area, discovered several faint signs of life in the location of a slum.

Those hidden creatures sealed off their life force, which is why it was so weak. As for those on the side...

The residents in this area have become half black and half white, and their facial features are still clearly visible. It seems that they are about to completely transform into normal people, but their souls are severely affected.

swaggering towards the house, Maginus took out the Gisyanki silver sword, pushed open the door, raised the sword while staring down, and then struck hard.

boom!

A loud crash shattered the earth and rocks between the basement and the ground. Several spells related to darkness, shadows, and negative energy shot out from below, and several pale-faced, angry figures, rarely seen in the sun, appeared before Maginus.

"Slaughter God Child, how dare you ruin my master's plans? Aren't you afraid of my master...?"

"Enough with the nonsense! Her grand plans span the entire continent; if one becomes useless, another will come along. She doesn't have time to deal with you all!"

As a veteran evil god, Lady Night has far too many grand plans, and she wouldn't care at all if one or two failed.

Sweeping his sword behind the three, Maginus swung the Gisyanki silver sword and surveyed his surroundings. Their bodies turned to ashes as they fell.

No, there's nothing here at all; you can't see any mirrors.

After searching several times, Maginus left the stronghold and began looking for other locations, but it seemed that the Mirror City really only had this one hiding place.

Where did that thing go? Am I wrong?

Recalling the cool, refreshing sensation that permeated the blood and souls of several believers, Maginus raised her hands and pulled, simultaneously activating her most powerful life perception.

A divine spark flickered, and life force exploded and spread, enveloping both cities. Maginus, activating her life senses, filtered out distractions and began searching for someone with the same scent as the Night Believers.

"...There's someone lurking there and hasn't been discovered yet."

Opening her eyes, Maginos gazed at the towering spire.

Chapter 455 Werewolf Followers

The tallest building in Mirror City is a tower called the Moon Tower, used to observe the phases of the moon for divination and prophecy, as well as to better connect with the Moon Maiden and complete certain special rituals.

Therefore, most of the people inside the tower are loyal and fanatical clergy, and no problems will arise.

However, Maginos discovered that something was wrong with it.

It wasn't that the person was replaced by the Night Priest; something was huddled inside the tower, in the shadow of a high-ranking old priest, and that thing seemed to be very strong, both in terms of vitality and soul.

To be able to evade high-level reconnaissance and remain inside, one must at least be an assassin of the same level, or perhaps one will encounter a legend in the first major battle after resurrection.

Maginus was eager to try. She gathered her life force, aimed at the guy in the shadow of the tower, spread her dragon wings, cracked the earth, and thrust towards the target!

Bang!

Leaving a sonic boom cloud behind him, Maginus, having completely broken the sound barrier, crashed through the Moon Tower in an instant. Under the astonished gaze of the high priest, he raised the Githyanki Silver Sword and thrust it at his shadow, imbuing it with psychic energy and life force.

Psionic: Demonic Weapon - Mind Blade - Mind Blade - Soul Corrosion!

Falling with terrifying power, a tiny shadow emerged from the priest's shadow, quickly grew larger, and raised a dagger to block his chest. Maginus swung sideways, and blood energy gathered to form a blade that slashed at the enemy.

The Moon Tower was completely destroyed, and the members of the Dark Night flew out. In the drizzling rain, its hood fell down, exposing its slender wolf mouth to everyone's eyes. On the leather armor on its chest, the mirror that the Church of the Moon had been searching for was embedded.

Jackals, no, werewolves, the cursed kind of beastmen.

Or rather, a blessing; from a magical perspective, it was the Lady of the Night who made it this way.

Licking the blood off his hands, Maginus stomped on half a tower pillar and followed the werewolf. The high-ranking priest certainly wouldn't be crushed or fall to his death.

"Slaughter God Child, whatever you want, I can give you!"

The werewolf was clearly one of the most powerful figures in the church, taking a sword strike from Maginus without even uttering a sound due to the pain in his soul.

It plummeted at high speed under immense pressure, fending off attacks while loudly negotiating with Maginos, who was closing in. Maginos, her eyes blazing with bloodlust, grinned:

"Ha, you're more sensible than your men, but what I want is faith!"

Pushing the werewolf across the dark night sky, Maginus raised her left hand, transforming it into a dragon claw, and tore at the moon's reflection on the werewolf's chest. To her surprise, as soon as her hand touched it, a large number of shadows wrapped around her, trying to completely erode her and turn her into a part of the shadows.

It's clear that the function of Moon Reflection has been modified by the Church of the Night, and it's now full of aggression.

Blood-red spikes extended from Maginus's arm, severing the shadow's restraints and allowing the dragon claws to pierce the werewolf's flesh. Sensing danger, it slightly twisted its body, opened its mouth, and let out a rhythmic howl, its face suddenly turning pale.

Shadow Space!

In an instant, darkness enveloped the werewolf and Maginus from all over the town, slowing her speed and even bringing her to a standstill.

The werewolf breathed a sigh of relief, but couldn't help spitting out blood. Its professions were Priest Shadow Dancer and Shadow Mystic. The Shadow Mystic can be simply understood as a sorcerer who connects to the shadow plane.

They are just more radical than sorcerers, and in the end they may even turn themselves into shadow creatures.

Shadow Spacetime is his strongest life-saving secret technique. Its effect is similar to stopping time, but in reality, it traps people in shadows, rendering their consciousness unable to move.

However, just as it was about to fall to the ground, an incredible scene unfolded before his eyes: Maginos, which had been frozen in place, held it firmly in place, and the creature that was supposed to move after more than ten seconds was now about to start moving!

With a buzzing sound, the shadow that had bound her was completely broken free. Maginus's dragon claws pressed down firmly on the moon's reflection, which was constantly releasing shadow tentacles, and she raised her sword to aim at the werewolf's head and decisively slashed down.

The shadows surged forth in an attempt to block Maginus's attack, but more solid life force severed the tentacles.

In the end, the blade still managed to decapitate the werewolf, and the corpse grew increasingly dry in Maginus's hands.

"That solves it... huh?"

Thinking things were simple, Maginus looked up at the sky. Dark shadow elements converged into rays, splitting into two that crashed vertically down from the Reflection City, piercing through the Lens City's defenses.

One arrow fell towards the werewolf's head, and another towards its corpse.

Maginus sucked faster, until only a mirror remained in her hand, and her head was completely sucked clean, while the shadow elements gathered into a line that rushed towards the mirror!

What the hell.

Her first instinct was to stuff the item into her dimensional bag, but after trying and failing, she realized that legendary equipment couldn't be put into ordinary spatial equipment.

The second reaction was to find the Church of the Moon to handle it. He flapped his dragon wings and flew back to the tower, dragging his shadow as he quickly approached. But then he heard some terrified screams coming from the Church of the Moon.

"If we take the mirror out and bring it to the Church of the Moon, Mirror City will be completely finished!"

The corrupted legendary equipment can't be brought into the Church of the Moon, what a hassle.

Glancing at the restless mirror in her hand, Maginos took a long, deep breath, turned and left with the mirror, stopping just short of the city's edge.

Maginus let the mirror absorb the shadow elements, wanting to see what this would produce.

Elements and magic converged behind the mirror, and a familiar figure reappeared. The werewolf she had previously dealt with had reappeared.

It's not the real thing, of course. Maginos has already devoured the werewolf's soul, so this is at most a puppet, probably related to the original function of the simulation spell.

The moment the shadow werewolf completed its form, it attacked Maginus. Before it could even reach her, the dragon claw smashed the strange mirror to the ground, giving him no chance to escape.

The shadows coiled and eroded Maginos's body, but she endured it without feeling any pain, waiting for help to arrive.

Once the simulacrum problem is solved, the mirror will probably attract attention again, so it's better to just keep it under control.

Anti-magic field.

After a long wait, a spellcaster finally arrived. With the activation of the anti-magic field, the restless elements finally dissipated, and the shadow werewolf summoned by the mirror disappeared.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Maginus decisively raised the Gisyanki silver sword, aimed at the now-useless mirror, and swung it down, intending to eliminate the threat completely.

Since it's all the mirror's fault, let's just destroy it.

"Wait! We can't smash the mirror!"

An aged voice came, and Maginus stopped what he was doing, tossing the Moon Reflection to wait for the church members to come over.

Chapter 456 Attempting Purification

The old man whom she had met at the top of the tower rushed over. Maginus, tossing the mirror around without any intention of returning it, grabbed it in her hand and asked:

"Why can't we destroy it? This thing is clearly the culprit that caused the Shadow Plane to connect to the Prime Material Plane. If we deal with it, the shadow in the sky will automatically recede."

"No, what do you think would happen if so much shadow energy got out of control?"
