Chapter 494: The Lord of Heaven Descends
…So it turns out there really are limits to being human. Adele thought so as she was entangled by the girls’ limbs like snakes, unable to move, their seductive eyes like silk. However, she couldn’t shout “Then I won’t be human anymore!” now.
She still had to continue firmly on the path of “humanity” until she found out the ultimate truth of this world and the meaning of human existence in this world. What kind of gaze did the great Creation God have when looking at His creation? And what kind of future did He choose?
“…” She hadn’t expected to think about such profound topics while having sex. Was this the legendary sage time…?
“Ugh~”
“Ah!” The girls’ occasional movements made it impossible for Adele to concentrate.
It seemed that this wasn’t sage time, it’s just that Adele had meditated too much, becoming a sage herself, developing the good habit of thinking. But now, let her temporarily put aside her thoughts and focus on dealing with her girls~
“Bad… bad girls… ugh!” Adele tried hard to kick the greedy Dorothy with her snow-white feet, but before her legs could even lift, Edith, who was devoutly waiting by her side, held them and kissed them passionately… even licking…
The other girls were distributed on the girl’s left and right, each occupying a part of her body. Adele floated in the ocean of desire, as if she was in the sky, sometimes flying, sometimes falling.
“…” Although she didn’t want to admit it, it was really comfortable. All the girls, including Kaiser, were almost humble in their service to the girl, not like what they said at the beginning… that they would make Adele meow.
They loved the girl so much, how could they treat her as a plaything? Therefore, even if Adele became… the passive one, the experience she truly enjoyed could be called that of an empress. An empress who didn’t need to move at all.
Perhaps she should let go of that boring self-esteem earlier and throw herself into the girls’ embrace and cuddling…
Adele regained some strength and began to kiss the girls around her. Celeste, she wasn’t greedy. A light kiss was enough to satisfy her for a long time. Adele signaled her with her eyes to get closer, then opened her cherry-like mouth and took the girl’s… like tasting the ripe fruit hanging from a lush tree.
“Ah~”
Celeste let out a very cute sound. And this special honor she received was something that some girls couldn’t enjoy, such as First Snow, so the cat-girl’s eyes were a bit resentful, her tail wagging back and forth. She was thinking that it must be because Sister Adele had confiscated all her snacks, and she couldn’t get enough nutrition! That’s why she couldn’t… get bigger, meow!
She would work hard to eat snacks and drink milk from tomorrow onwards! Striving to one day let Sister Adele also enjoy the impact of a cute kitty! The little cat gently bit Adele’s… small bun, leaving a faint tooth mark.
Adele gasped and clamped her legs shut. Seeing that the situation was bad, First Snow quickly slipped away, and Wofoo immediately filled the gap. From a kitten to… a little wolf?
But the little wolf was well-behaved. Even though her teeth were so long and sharp, she didn’t let Adele feel even a trace of pain. What greeted Adele was only… from the nimble wolf tongue.
The night was still long. Women’s physiology allowed them to continue enjoying a certain kind of pleasure, unlike men who had a so-called “refractory period” physically. However, the psychological “refractory period” did exist.
However, being with Adele, cuddling with Adele, this was something the girls had dreamed of and looked forward to for a long, long time. How could they possibly have a “refractory period”?
Therefore, they were destined to fight all night long.
Fortunately, Adele was the one being served in the latter half and didn’t need to expend too much physical strength. Otherwise, she really doubted whether her current body, which had returned to its original human state… could bear it.
The next morning, Xiao Ai was already awake. She sat up in her bed, sleepy-eyed, and rubbed her eyes. Because the soundproofing of the room was very good, even though her room and the room where Adele and the other girls were resting were not far apart, she didn’t hear any strange sounds from next door at night, so she could enjoy a peaceful and comfortable sleep.
But that didn’t mean she wasn’t curious… So after hesitating for a moment, Xiao Ai used wind and water magic, letting it become her eyes to peek at the situation in Adele’s room. She named it “Wind’s Eye.”
It must be said that Xiao Ai’s magical attainments were truly amazing. Some magic that people didn’t even know how to explain its principles could be perfectly displayed in her hands. Through the existence of “Wind’s Eye,” the girl could see the situation inside from the slight gap in the window of Adele’s bedroom.
Ugh… it was really a “messy” scene. But it was also beautiful, extremely beautiful. Like countless flowers piled up, just to set off the one in the center.
If possible, Xiao Ai really hoped that she could become one of those flowers. There was no need to be stunning, nor did she need to be enchanting, just to be together with her.
Xiao Ai couldn’t help but take a few more greedy glances at the petite person in the center. But the next moment, her “Wind’s Eye” was broken and dissipated into natural elements.
The connection was interrupted, and Xiao Ai’s vision returned to normal, still in her own room. She froze. “…” Was she discovered by someone? Sister Seraph?
The only one she could think of was the angel, because she knew very well that Mom couldn’t use magic in her current state. However, in reality, it was Adele who suddenly looked towards the only gap in the window with a puzzled look, feeling as if someone was watching her.
But it quickly disappeared. It must be an illusion, right? Yawn~
The girl yawned widely. She would probably have to make up for it with a long sleep today. Without magic power as support to convert into energy, her current state was similar to that of ordinary people after staying up all night. But she didn’t regret… spending such a wonderful night.
………………
Before any major disaster in history, there would always be so-called celestial omens. And this time, it was like a dark curtain covering the sunlight of the whole world.
But this wasn’t a solar eclipse. In fact, the sun was still emitting light and flames, but it still couldn’t stop that seemingly fundamental darkness from devouring all its light.
God said, let there be light. So there was light in this world. But in the era when God disappeared, something was returning. He wanted the light of God to be extinguished.
So in an instant, the whole world fell into an abyss-like darkness. Hundreds of millions of people, countless lives panicked. Only Adele was still in a deep sleep, enjoying the peace that would soon disappear under this apocalyptic scene.
All media were taken over by Enforcement Bureau operatives with abilities, and they weaved a new iron curtain, covering everyone’s mouths, eyes, and ears. They told everyone that this was a very normal “solar eclipse phenomenon.”
Don’t worry, after today passed, the world would return to its original brightness.
The authorities deceived everyone. They didn’t want the order of this world to collapse. They didn’t want people to panic. They would rather have unarmed people continue to do those things that might soon become meaningless in their daily lives under the lies, and talk about how this vision made the sky more beautiful, like a piece of black silk satin.
They didn’t want them to bear the… truth that they didn’t have the strength or mind to bear. They didn’t want them to know that behind the darkness, there was a pair of ruthless eyes, gazing at the meaningless living beings in this world like an abyss.
This was the last kindness the authorities could offer, and also the last evil they could commit. Because after today, they might cease to exist.
The authorities, in private, were plundering and infringing. The authorities, in public, were protecting and shielding.
At this moment, in the command room of the Human Race’s high-level, the silent atmosphere had not been broken for a long time. Similarly, everyone’s eyes revealed firmness and unity. Even in the history of mankind, in the rise and fall of nations, there would always be leading parties and traitors.
But on this day, even those in power who would openly disregard collective interests for their own or their families’ sake had gathered here to resist the coming great enemy, offering everything they had, including their lives. No wonder someone said that only by setting up a common enemy could humans achieve true unity.
Of course, the returning Lord of Heaven was not an artificially created enemy. He equally despised all life in this mortal world.
The Philosopher King sat in her wheelchair, her eyes as calm as water, looking at the model data on the screen in front of her. It showed that there was only one short hour left before the Lord of Heaven broke through the world barrier and returned to his kingdom of God.
Thousands of years ago, who could have imagined that humans could simply calculate the trajectory of a god and the output power of the force He used with a mathematical model. Perhaps this was the Creation God’s expectation for humans. One day, they would be able to rival gods with their creativity.
But the Lord of Heaven never wanted to believe this. He loathed those humans who polluted his sight, regarding them as insects, believing that their so-called creation was just destroying the… perfect world created by the Creation God. They cut down trees, they burned, they waged wars, they… were born with original sin.
So He would never acknowledge that humans possessed power comparable to gods.
The next moment, the screen in front of the Philosopher King suddenly flashed red! The time needed for the Lord of Heaven to break through the world barrier and return instantly jumped from one hour to 40:25, and the numbers changed again, jumping to 25:51, and then to single digits!
Finally, everything calculated on it turned into a meaningless mess of codes. Countless symbols danced wildly, and electricity overflowed the screen. Finally, starting from the first sub-pixel of the display, the symbols changed one after another into the… “0” that represented nothingness, that everything was meaningless.
00000000…
00000000…
…
Countless 0s occupied the screen. Not just one screen, but all screens in the entire world that could display images.
In everyone’s computers, in their mobile phones, there were only the symbols “0,” as if representing the arrival of the end of this world.
00:00
—The Lord of Heaven, descends.
Chapter 495: Raising the King’s Sword Against God
Even though most people in this mortal world couldn’t see the world barrier that existed in the void beyond the sky before them, it didn’t stop them from looking up at the darkness as if they felt something the moment the Lord of Heaven broke through it.
Countless gazes converged, as if the entire planet opened its confused and helpless eyes towards the returning Lord of Heaven.
In an ordinary household, the husband came home early from work, and the wife was preparing dinner in the kitchen. The girl, who had just finished her homework, was leaning by the window, curiously looking at the dark sky. The calm voice of the news anchor came from the TV:
“This solar eclipse is the largest and longest-lasting special astronomical phenomenon in history. Please don’t worry or be anxious, citizens.”
“Just wait quietly at home for the solar eclipse to pass…”
The man turned off the TV. Although he didn’t believe the anchor’s words, it did make people feel much more at ease after hearing them. He also came to the window and subconsciously wanted to take a cigarette from his pocket… But realizing that his daughter was beside him, the man withdrew his hand awkwardly and coughed lightly.
Before he could speak, his daughter started the conversation. “I saw online that this solar eclipse… might be related to the spiritual energy revival?”
“Maybe after it’s over, I can also awaken superpowers!”
Just like in many anime and novels, after the red moon, extraordinary beings would be everywhere. Although it wasn’t a red moon now, didn’t a black sun sound even more impressive?
“Then what kind of superpower do you want to awaken?” The man smiled and asked his daughter curiously. Unlike his daughter, who was still full of longing and fantasy for the future, he, a middle-aged man, had experienced the hardships of society and had already given up on fantasies.
His only wish now was to maintain this ordinary life, watch his daughter grow up day by day, and enjoy his old age with his wife.
“I want to~ be Spider-Woman!”
“Eh, you can’t be Spider-Woman,” the man laughed. According to his impression, Spider-Man’s relatives were always in a high-risk occupation.
The daughter pouted and blinked. “Then… Batwoman!”
Pfft, this one was even more powerful.
“No!” The man couldn’t help it and refused seriously.
The little girl was a little dejected. Humph, strange adults. I can’t be this, I can’t be that.
“Then I won’t be a superhero, I’ll just make a simple wish.”
“I want the sky to be filled with sparkling stars again!”
“Otherwise, looking at the dark sky, my heart feels so uneasy and heavy-…” The little girl propped up her face pitifully.
The man touched her hair comfortingly. For a moment, neither of them spoke.
Suddenly, the little girl’s eyes lit up. She pointed her finger at somewhere far away on the horizon. “Dad! Dad, look!”
“Stars! Stars flying up from the ground!”
“My wish really came true!”
The man was speechless, as if he was so shocked by the scene in front of him that he couldn’t speak. It wasn’t until a long time later, looking at the countless “stars” that lit up the night sky again, that he replied with a trembling voice, “…I see it.”
He saw brilliant streams of light rising from the ground, piercing the dark sky. It wasn’t just him, the whole world, countless people saw it!
In different regions, different directions, but there were the same beams of light, lighting up in various parts of the world, rising straight into the sky, like a meteor shower falling from the ground to the sky.
That was countless powerful people of the Human Race, the Vampire Clan, and other Foreign Races, burning everything they had, rushing to the distant battlefield. He/They raised their rebellious fire towards the arrogant God, vowing to light up the sky!
From now on, if there was no torch in this world, he/they would be the only light.
………………
Exhausting the power of the entire world, all the strongest people emerged to fight against the old god. This was the scene born under this sky, destined to be recorded or to disappear forever in time and space. Its name was “When the Stars of Humanity Shine.”
But facing this situation, the indescribable phantom of the old god, the Lord of Heaven, remained indifferent. An indescribable sound wave fluctuated in outer space where there shouldn’t be any sound.
This was because God’s power could modify the rules of physics. Including the rules of physics themselves, which were just rules written by the Creation God at the beginning of time so that His creation, humans, could live in this world.
No one could understand that ancient language except Hell Queen Jormungandr and the fallen angels behind her. At this time, Hell Queen Jormungandr had already completed her transformation. She successfully rebuilt the so-called “Tower of Babel” using the genetic fragments left by the Creation God and ascended to become a god.
Or rather, she only recovered part of her peak strength. This was enough to allow her to be clear-headed and recall the glory she carried in the old days.
God created the world, and then created humans. And she and the Lord of Heaven, Yawei, were the first pair of “humans” created by the Creation God. It could also be said that they were the two daughters of the Creation God, the ancestors of humanity.
However, as the ancestors of humanity, they abandoned the name of “human” given to them by their mother, the Creation God, and greedily reached for the crown called “God.”
Jormungandr was the instigated loser. She, along with those sinful races who deviated from the path of “humanity,” were exiled to the prison called hell.
Yawei was the schemer behind the scenes. Good at disguises, she not only deceived Jormungandr, but also deceived the Creation God, successfully stealing the authority of God and becoming the final winner.
The era of her rule arrived, and the Creation God disappeared without a trace. Jormungandr always believed… that Yawei killed God. For this reason, she led her army back from hell more than once, but was defeated by Yawei again and again. That’s why her strength had regressed again and again.
Actually, Yawei had countless ways and countless opportunities to kill Jormungandr, but He didn’t do so, as if to keep Jormungandr and humiliate her again and again. You, the Hell Queen, what makes you think you are qualified to compete with me for Mother Creation God?
Including those fallen angels later, Lucifer, Shila, and the others… It was as if Yawei had deliberately let them go, because compared to dying in battle, it was the survivors who had to endure more pain. Yawei wanted them to spend the rest of their lives in pain and regret. As for whether the Lord of Heaven, Yawei, had ever thought that she would be jointly resisted by them today, perhaps she had.
But just like the message she conveyed in the unknown ancient language, “She said—ants,” Jormungandr translated coldly. The Lord of Heaven didn’t care, didn’t care about the resistance of this world, didn’t care who resisted. Beneath God, all were ants.
Hearing this, Black Emperor Ying Zhou’s cold eyes reflected the indescribable figure in the void. What indescribable, she would see clearly today!
So, with the blessing of the divine power after ascending, Ying Zhou’s eyes saw through the illusion and finally saw the existence behind the scenes. It was… a woman, a woman so beautiful that people would suspect that she was the fundamental concept of “beauty.”
Wearing a veil woven from etheric light, her body was naked, but there were strange and sacred patterns covering the woman’s full and curvaceous, divine body. Ying Zhou’s eyes almost cracked, and scarlet divine blood flowed from the cracks. This made her look scary and even more pitiful.
Even as a god who had successfully ascended, Black Emperor Ying Zhou… compared with the Lord of Heaven, the former ruler and god, she was still too far, too far behind. Just by trying to see the appearance of the Lord of Heaven, she had paid the price of blood.
But in fact, this was already a silent confrontation. Although Ying Zhou was defeated, she also broke through the first layer of the Lord of Heaven Yawei’s fundamental defense, exposing her true body in front of all the strongest.
Otherwise, all attacks on her would be erased at the conceptual level, because under the protection of that indescribable veil, the Lord of Heaven Yawei could almost be said to be untargetable and unattackable. The holiness and uniqueness of God lay here. The authority of this world could only be held by one person.
So from this perspective, even though Black Emperor Ying Zhou suffered a heavy loss, it wasn’t entirely without gain. More importantly, as the True Ancestor who created the Vampire Clan, and also an emperor in human history, Ying Zhou was not willing to be surpassed by any god.
Her arrogance had always been consistent from ancient times to the present. The Lord of Heaven also finally turned her gaze to the Black Emperor Ying Zhou, this… slightly more active ant.
Then she extended her hand, which was made of pure light and as white as jade, and pressed it down towards where the Black Emperor was. The Lord of Heaven’s speed seemed so slow. Everyone could clearly see the trajectory of her waving hand.
But when she made a move, it meant that it had already happened. This attack was engraved on the only timeline of this world, leaving an indelible mark. No one could resist, no matter how hard they tried, they couldn’t stop it from falling.
Black Emperor Ying Zhou stood tall and graceful, floating in the void, looking very calm. She wasn’t afraid of this attack from the Lord of Heaven, just faintly said, “Back off.” Then she decided to bear all of this alone, using her own power to cut off the causal relationship between others and herself.
Elf True Ancestor Lislotte looked at her palm blankly. A light golden mark was disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye. When… did it appear on her? This imprint from the Black Emperor Ying Zhou? It was also the protective rune she left on her.
It had never appeared until today, when its owner personally cut it off. It turned out that her past insistence that she didn’t believe that the Black Emperor would fall was not, as others said, “unwilling to accept reality,” but because Ying Zhou… this bastard, even deceived her.
It was precisely because of this protective imprint she gave her that she sensed it and always firmly believed that she must still be alive… living somewhere in this world, or another world. Everyone’s fate was countless intertwined threads. And the Black Emperor Ying Zhou had arbitrarily wrapped one of her threads around Elf True Ancestor Lislotte because she always couldn’t let go of this stubborn elf girl.
Forgive me, my love cannot be given only to you. But I will always love you, Lislotte. Whether in the past or the future, this time and space, or another world. I swear by this mark, and will never break it.
But now—she took the initiative to break this oath, pulling that thread of fate from Lislotte’s thread of fate. From now on, the two would be like stars in different constellations, never to meet again.
Lislotte looked up with tears streaming down her face. In the depths of the distant starry sky, the figure of the silver-haired woman facing the vast divine might was slender and fragile, but it gradually overlapped with a tall figure in the Elf True Ancestor’s memory.
How she wished… he/she could turn around and look at her again. Perhaps then, she wouldn’t have left in anger.
Why were you always like this…！ Always… thinking that you could solve everything alone! But you didn’t understand… I was more afraid of… losing you than bearing that divine power.
There was once a long-lived species. She said that she would never fall in love with a short-lived species because she didn’t want to spend the rest of her life in sadness and grief. But later, she broke her promise.
Now, was this the moment when this fate came true…?
“Boom!!”
The boundless divine might flooded the Black Emperor Ying Zhou’s figure like a flood.
“No!!” Lislotte cried out, rushing towards her desperately, but was stopped by another force.
The Philosopher King calmly raised her hand and froze the space around Lislotte. At the same time, without any mental communication, she and the Hell Queen simultaneously unleashed their power, joining the torrent of fate that the Black Emperor Ying Zhou was supposed to bear alone.
The three gods of the new era joined forces to barely resist the first wave of the Lord of Heaven, Yawei’s, attack. The endless power dissipated.
Under the dark starry sky, the Black Emperor Ying Zhou’s clothes were torn, and her silver hair was disheveled. It seemed… she really went all out. She chuckled and wiped the divine blood from the corner of her lips, still looking directly at the old god, a golden flame that even the flood of world destruction couldn’t extinguish burning in her eyes.
“Do you know…”
“In our world, what is the end of those gods who try to control the fate of mankind!” The woman raised her head and shouted angrily, raising the king’s sword towards the arrogant god!
