Chapter 849 The Heavens Sky Shattered
Chapter 849 The Heaven's Sky Shattered
The God King received a report regarding the event that had just occurred on Council’s island. He then dispatched many squads to take over the entire Council, including its system.
*Crash!* *Rumble!*
A rumble in the distance startled everyone. The sky shook and shook the atmosphere.
“What, what’s going on?” Someone asked frantically.
“...” Elysia heaved a subtle sigh as she gazed into the distance. The sky shattered like glass, leaving a huge hole leading to some mystery.
A golden pillar of light soared high into the sky, pierced the laws of the heavens, and headed for infinity.
At that moment, what Elysia had previously said proved true. They were too late and could do nothing to prevent the Ruvoid God’s ascension. The Council’s members also went with him.
“We can’t stop them, huh... The Heaven’s sky has been destroyed.” Elysia muttered softly.
‘It’s a mysterious little gift, but it’s a farewell from me, Elysia. If next time we meet again, maybe we will be friends, hahaha! Do as you please with the other Ruvoid Race, for I am now free from shackles!’ Alashor’s voice came to Elysia’s mind somehow.
‘No. The next time we meet, I’ll probably kill you in the first encounter.’ Elysia didn’t know whether her curse worked or not. Nevertheless, she couldn’t do much now.
‘Then we better not cross our path. You can retrieve Heaven’s core at the location of this pillar of light. The higher world, here we come!’ Alashor shot through infinity and disappeared from the heavenly skies.
Dozens of Council members followed suit, and the golden pillar of light disappeared instantly.
*Rumble!*
Golden lightning flashed from the sky, hitting the spot where the pillar of light was. Unfortunately, the heavenly tribulations came too late and failed to stop the lawbreaker.
“Calamity, this is truly a catastrophe.” The long blonde-haired Goddess in a golden robe stared at the hole in the heavens with a pale expression.
“It can’t be repaired like the damage in Earth’s world law?” Elena nudged Gaia’s arm.
“Unfortunately, we have no way of repairing Heaven’s sky. That’s why the Divine Association went all out to stop those traitors and defectors.” Gaia sighed and shook her head.
“Fortuna, you are the Goddess of Fate and Fortune, right? Can you predict the future? Is a catastrophe the one you can predict?” Lynn asked the blonde Goddess.
“Yeah, the heavenly sky is shattered, and it is the beginning of the collapse of the Heavenly Realm. The catastrophe can no longer be stopped.” Fortuna grasped her hands. That night would happen soon.
“Unstoppable is a strong word for despair. I’d rather say we haven’t figured it out yet. It seems that the Ruvoid God and the Council members have already broken through infinity and gone to the higher world. Heaven’s core was left at the location of the lightning strike earlier. Please retrieve it immediately and put it back where it belongs.” Elysia stared at the God King.
“All right. I’ll go there with the Divine Association’s higher-ups. Hurry up, let’s move now.” Ileus raised his wooden cane and invited his adjutants.
“However, God King... you are still seriously injured.” An advisor tries to prevent the GOd King from leaving the Celestial Palace.
“The situation is getting very bad. We must move quickly. Heaven’s sky has broken, and we don’t know what catastrophe awaits us.” The God King didn’t even look back. He boarded his golden cloud and flew towards the hole in the sky. His adjutants soon followed closely behind.
“Phiria, no, no, please don’t leave me! You have sworn to serve me and accompany me throughout eternity.” A crown-braid-haired deity sobbed while holding her angel’s dead body.
“Lady Vyda... Phiria has gone into the afterlife. She is a great angel. She fought to the end and died as a knight. She protected you till the end of her life.” Another deity patted his friend’s shoulder, but his hand was pushed away by the sad deity.
“She protected me, but at the price of her life!” Vyda sobbed because her only angel’s departure hit her hard.
The atmosphere of the Celestial Palace’s garden suddenly became gloomy. Vyda’s grief reminded the surrounding Gods and deities of those who died in the heavenly battle. Some of them lost the ones precious to them too.
“...” Elysia took a deep breath. Even though she arrived on the battlefield in time, she could still not save everyone. Her priority was still her own group, and casualties were unavoidable even though she paid attention to saving the others too.
Maybe, the total number of fatalities was high, but she didn’t dare to find out the exact number because it was very painful. If there was one to blame, Alashor took full responsibility for it.
However, Elysia once again thought. If she had given the punishment in their first encounter last month, none of these tragedies would have happened. At that moment, Elysia’s mentality began to change. She would never once leave her enemy free. If her enemies need forgiveness, they could repent in their next life.
“It’s all their fault! Yeah, all this mess is their fault! If only they didn’t bring that Cursed God here and make the Council change. If only they could move fast and solve the problem they brought. It’s just one Cursed God!
It’s them! The otherworldly seraphim! If you plunged into the battlefield, Phiria wouldn’t have died! Their group is the source of trouble, but the ones who bear the casualties are us. Not a single one of their group died. They don’t have a heart, and they don’t even care! They don’t know what it’s like to lose their loved one!” Vyda pointed and uttered tons of hate speech at the six-winged Goddesses.
She knew they were strong, but the two of them barely did anything on the previous battlefield.
Rhea immediately stood before Elysia in case something stupid happened, but someone suddenly shot flying at the sad deity.
*Slap*
The sound of a loud slap resounded all around. Vyda’s head jerked aside from the impact. The stinging pain on her cheeks seemed to shake her soul too. She became dazed for a moment and looked at the little fairy who had just slapped her.
“Do you think you are the one who suffers the most in the Earth and Heaven realms? Do you know what it’s like to lose eighty-one archangels and one hundred and forty-four angels in training?
I lost everything, my entire pantheon, just because of the accursed’s invasion! My pain is hundreds of times more excruciating than yours. Several races became extinct because of the accursed and wiped out more than seventy percent of our world’s living creatures.
See what happened here? It’s just a Ruvoid God, right? And what do you do? Hiding behind your angel and blaming us for coming to help all of you? If we don’t come, do you think the casualties will only be this much?
Maybe, Earth and Heaven will cease to exist. That Ruvoid God changed his plans drastically because he feared Elysia and her master! They’re already exhausted from the previous battle that destroyed the other sealed dimension, and you dare blame them!?” Nell shouted louder, but her intonation was poignant and heart-wrenching to hear.
‘Nell...’ Rhea called out to Nell in a soft tone.
Vyda opened her mouth, but no sound could come out of it.
“Sorry to be rude. You should give the last farewell to your brave angel. She died as a hero for her master. She has already gone to the afterlife, and we can’t do anything. She didn’t die from the curse, so you can still seek her in her next life through samsara if you are lucky.” Nell put her hand to her forehead and immediately returned to her big sister’s shoulder. She hid behind Rhea’s long turquoise hair.
“After the God King returns, we will discuss the punishment to the God Game participants who caused chaos on Earth and open a discussion about the current situation. For the time being, please calm down and cool your heads for future discussions.” Fortuna put her hands together, asking everyone to calm down.
After giving assignments to her confidants, she took Elysia’s group away from the Celestial palace’s garden.
The scenery suddenly turned into a spacious room on one of the palace’s spires.
“What’s with that rude woman? She shouted out loud and was so mean to us. I was about to run up and kick her ass so she could shut up. She must respect her angel’s sacrifice, not blame us. We also tried our best.” Sylvia grumbled in annoyance.
“Don’t you have to keep her mouth shut if you want to silence her?” Yuuki raised her eyebrows.
“That’s nice. I can kick her ass, so she’ll be shocked. After that, you gag her mouth.” Sylvia grinned mischievously.
“...” Elysia somehow felt so tired and sleepy when she was already relieved. It seemed the problem was over. Just a few other issues, but the rest would be taken care of later.
However, she felt her consciousness slowly leave her.
Rhea was still in front of her and Elena in the Elysian Realm. The one closest to her was Evelyn. Therefore, she raised her hands and wrapped her arms around Evelyn’s neck. Her divine battlesuit instantly disintegrated into particles and returned to her divine bracelet the moment she fell unconscious.
‘Ely?’ Elena didn’t know what had happened so suddenly. Still, she didn’t feel anything was wrong because Elysia had just passed out and fallen asleep.
“E-Ely?” Evelyn blushed when Elysia suddenly hugged her. She then felt something was wrong when Elysia’s fallen angel battlesuit turned into a casual white dress.
“Fainted? Asleep?” Evelyn asked in wonder, but she felt relieved when she noticed Elysia’s smooth, regular breaths. It was ticklish because the breath was blown into her neck up close.
The Goddess of Nature then offered to help move Elysia to the bed, but Evelyn immediately brought Elysia there. She was the one who would take care of her best friend now.
