People are at the border, but they become the incarnation of the sun

81. You Lost, Marenia (4.5K)

The battle between the two became increasingly intense.

Reinhardt's body had expanded to an unattainable height, almost the same as the first king Gefulei. His muscles, like rocks, broke his clothes into pieces and tore them into strips.

The faint sun fire burning on the body surface caused the messenger, the old woman with the finger-untied fingers, to tremble and scream.

"Ah, ominous power, ominous sinner! Power rejected by the Golden Tree!"

Even though she shouted like that, no one wanted to pay attention to her.

There is no such thing as ominous or sinners for them. If we talk about ominousness, can Reinhardt's power be more ominous than Marennia's scarlet corruption?

What's more, even if it is an ominous sign, what can you do to others?

Although the news of the death of the head of the envoys, Krep, had been blocked due to the efforts of everyone in the Round Table Hall, there were still some people who knew the details, and even the group of envoys under Two Finger had become a joke.

when--

The two blades collided again, sending out sparks and raising a sword wind that swept across the earth.

But this time it was Marennia who was defeated. She was knocked out and hit the wall hard.

"You lose, Marenia."

Reinhardt looked indifferently at the girl kneeling on one knee. Even with the support of the golden sword, he was unable to prop up her slightly trembling body.

He casually tore off the remaining strip of cloth on his upper body, and his muscles, as if cast in molten iron, and the majestic and arrogant red lion tattoo were completely exposed to the air.

That sturdy body is the proof of victory, and its proud back illustrates the principle of strength.

"etc...."

Marennia suddenly called out to him, "I haven't lost yet..."

With her strong willpower, the girl stood up shakily again.

"Lady Marenia..."

Fenlei was a little worried and wanted to step forward to fight in place of her monarch, but was stopped by Michaela. Just as she was about to say something, she was stopped by Michaela's eyes.

At this moment, the expressions of everyone in the church changed.

Whether it was Oga, Lutier, or the Crucible Knight, they all picked up their weapons and prepared for battle.

They felt the power in Malenia's body surging slowly like a worm, and like a plague, the ominous scarlet corrupt power was spreading along her limbs and bones, and dense scales like snake scales suddenly appeared on her lotus-white arms.

"...I haven't fallen yet. Our fight continues."

There was a bit more determination and resoluteness in the girl's beautiful and pure eyes.

Mottled marks appeared on the slender golden blade, which was evidence of the erosion of the scarlet power.

She loathed the scarlet law of corruption that she bore within her, and had loathed it since she was born.

But for her brother, in order to bring him victory in this battle, she was willing to use it this once.

"???"

Seeing this, Reinhardt slowly asked a few question marks. Looking at the girl's stubborn look, he even wanted to laugh.

As for?

For such an insignificant contest, he was willing to let his body be corroded by scarlet corruption.

Is winning or losing really that important to her? If she had known, she would have conceded defeat sooner.

It's so troublesome...

Reinhardt couldn't help but complain in his heart.

However, Confucius once said:

"Have friends come from afar?"

As a qualified Confucian disciple, one should follow Confucius' teachings.

"Since that's the case, I will convince you with justice this time."

Reinhardt slowly raised his right hand, and at the same time, he continuously channeled the enormous solar power in his body into his fingertips and palms. The scorching heat emitted caused the air to distort slightly, and the remaining fallen leaves on the ground spontaneously combusted, leaving only wisps of ashes.

Since Marennia was willing to die, he was willing to bury her.

As for what the outcome will be, that is no longer his concern. He will deal with it after it happens.

However, his actions naturally attracted the attention of many people in the royal city.

For example, in the Ancient Dragon Church somewhere in the royal city, a woman in a cloak was resting on a bench when she was awakened by this powerful magic.

I don’t know if it’s because she just woke up, but the woman’s eyes were confused, yet also a little surprised.

This power made her feel both familiar and unfamiliar.

It was somewhat similar to the sunlight that the ancient dragons had once bathed in, but also different.

"...Has the sun god we serve...really returned?"

The cold voice echoed in the empty Ancient Dragon Church.

A thoughtful look appeared in the woman's sharp golden dragon eyes.

...

At the same time, inside the Golden Tree Cathedral.

The demigods were puzzled by the tense situation at the scene.

Although they didn't understand what it meant to conquer others with righteousness, they should have stopped fighting. But now?

Only Lani knew the reason, because Reinhardt called his right hand "Justice". If he wanted to convince others with reason, he would take out the ritual axe that was renamed "Reason".

But compared to this, she wanted to know more about how it would end.

At this moment, with the magic power bursting out of Reinhardt's body, she would not be surprised at all even if it could tear down the Golden Tree Cathedral.

She had even made up her mind.

If something really went wrong, she was ready to run away with Reinhardt.

After all, based on her understanding of her bastard father, he would definitely intervene, and given his loyalty to the Golden Rule, he would definitely kill Reinhardt.

"despair--"

Just then, Malenia moved.

Water birds are dancing!

He tapped the ground with his toes and leaped up again. The golden sword in his hand spread its wings and danced like a water bird. The slender sword left beautiful and deadly scarlet marks in the air.

And it's faster and more sensitive than before.

In an instant, he was in front of Reinhardt.

"I will definitely win this battle!"

The golden sword blade swept the scarlet wind and attacked with an unstoppable momentum, completely lacking the previous water bird-like elegance.

"Really? Then let's give it a try!"

Reinhardt swung his knife and slashed at Malenia's prosthetic hand.

That’s right, a prosthetic arm.

After all, there was no deep hatred between him and Malenia. It was just that Malenia was a little overwhelmed and needed the power of the sun to help her calm down.

Moreover, as long as she loses her prosthetic limbs, Malenia will basically have no combat ability, like a little cutie who can do whatever people want, unless the Scarlet Corruption is completely released.

But that is impossible. Marika, the God of Golden Law, will not allow it. It will definitely be a devastating blow to the Royal City of Rodel or the entire Yatan Plateau.

But in the next moment, a guy who shouldn't have appeared intervened in their fight.

"Stop it."

Godwin suddenly appeared between them, and the greatsword engraved with the golden tree emblem in his hand blocked Marennia's golden blade, and with one blow, he dispelled the scarlet wind that was raised.

However, Reinhardt's attack went unstoppable and landed silently.

Swah——

The expected roar did not occur, and even the church did not shake at all.

However, Godwin was completely shocked by the scene before him and even couldn't understand it. The only thing he knew was that he felt death at that moment. He had never felt that kind of palpitations even when facing the ancient dragon clan.

Moreover, the greatsword and the golden blade he used to block Malenia's attack, as well as Malenia's golden prosthetic hand, had disappeared.

There was no feeling, no fluctuation, as if it had been wiped out.

If the broken blade of the greatsword had not remained in his hand, Godwin would probably have mistakenly believed that nothing had happened and that Reinhardt had simply made a gesture of swinging his hand.

It all happened so suddenly that no one understood what was going on.

Just raise your hand and then lower it, it's that simple.

"Holy Sword Escanor."

"Oh..."

The moment she finished speaking, Marenya knelt on the ground, with beads of sweat soaking her forehead.

The arm, which had been corroded into a scaly shape by the scarlet corruption, also returned to its white and smooth texture.

With that attack just now, not only their weapons and prosthetic arms disappeared, but also the scarlet corrupt power that was surging just now in Marlennia.

Just like a mouse seeing a cat, part of its power was eliminated in an instant, and the remaining power all retracted into Malenia's body.

To be honest, this was actually beyond Reinhardt's expectations.

He never imagined that the power of the sun would have such a restraining power over the power of scarlet corruption, as if it were a natural enemy.

This move was just a simple imitation on a whim, and I never expected it to be reproduced so successfully. Although its power is not as strong as the original, the strength is controlled just right.

I originally thought that the church would be split up as well.

what a pity.

"The winner has been decided, and this is the end."

Marika's ethereal voice suddenly rang out, coming from all directions and echoing in the empty church, making it impossible to tell where the source of the voice came from.

And Marika's words have a certain strange power.

As she finished speaking, the thick clouds in the sky slowly surged, gradually obscuring the sun in the distance.

Reinhardt suddenly felt that the weak connection with the sun disappeared, and his body gradually returned to the state before the battle as if it had been deflated.

It's really strong...

With just a sound, he deprived the sun of its remaining light. Can we say that he is truly worthy of being the god of the golden tree?

"Oh... Great Queen Marika, please punish this sinner. This sinner possesses a power that the Golden Tree fears..."

The old woman who had been speechless due to the fighting spirit suddenly jumped up.

He even pleaded with Marika and asked her to eliminate Reinhardt's existence.

"Children of golden blood and children of the full moon, come to the throne room and meet me."

Malika's voice came again.

But he paid no attention to the old woman's words and was too lazy to respond.

Seeing this, Reinhardt almost laughed out loud.

As an old woman who can untie fingers, you want to teach Queen Malika how to do things?

I'm afraid you haven't lived enough...

"Big brother, your strength is so unique that you actually defeated Marenia. You're so amazing!"

Michaela regained her lively childish self and ran to him, talking with a smile, her twinkling golden eyes full of curiosity.

Behind her, Marennia, holding her shoulder where she had lost her prosthetic limb, walked slowly with Finlay.

"I lost..." Marennia lowered her head, her voice filled with apology, "I'm sorry that my demented behavior has caused you trouble."

"It's okay. I was a little drunk just now. It's not your fault alone." Reinhardt responded with a polite smile.
