Inside World Serpent’s headquarters, Raven had a lingering bad premonition; ever since she woke up this morning, her right eyelid had been twitching incessantly.
“There’s an old saying in Shenzhou that a twitching left eye means wealth, while a twitching right eye means feudal superstition…
Maybe it’s just a delusion?” Raven pressed down on her right eyelid, and though she comforted herself with those words, she was still a bit flustered.
“It could also just be that you’re under a lot of mental stress.” Another Gray Serpent standing beside Raven snarked at her behavior, but in the next second, Raven’s unease was vindicated.
“World Serpent!
I’ve brought you the Herrschers—!” The sudden appearance of a spatial portal reminded Raven of the Herrscher of the Void, who was recorded to have caused thirty million deaths.
From behind the portal, the Herrscher of Reason, the Herrscher of the Void, and the Herrscher of Thunder—three Herrschers—charged out directly, accompanied by Schicksal’s strongest Valkyrie.
“Are you kidding me?!
How did they find—Gray Serpent, where are you going?!” Raven turned her head, intending to question her teammate, but she hadn’t expected Gray Serpent to have already slipped away.
Raven was so angry she could hardly catch her breath.
“Life only has value when it is held in my hands, Gray Serpent.
Raven, sacrifice yourself for the greater cause!” This particular Gray Serpent seemed to be a bit of a joker, sprinting away without looking back, intending to activate the headquarters’ defense system, but…
“One, two, three, don’t move.” Pointed at by Jizo Mitama, Gray Serpent was instantly reduced to a puppet that could be toyed with at will.
Raven could only watch like an impotent husband as her partner was treated as a toy by the three naturally evil Herrschers and the strongest Valkyrie.
Watching Gray Serpent being treated like a toy, Raven couldn’t help but feel a sense of shared sorrow.
After all, if even Gray Serpent was finished, would the naturally evil Herrscher of the Void really let her off the hook? This story is hosted at g.com.
Seeing Raven screaming miserably while imagining who-knows-what, Kiana found it hard to keep a straight face.
But since she was already here, she figured she might as well bully Raven a little.
“I heard you have a little island.
Why don’t you let me blow it up?” Kiana’s words made Raven’s eyes widen instantly.
Seeing Kiana raise her hand as if to snap her fingers, Raven lunged forward.
At this moment, Raven had forgotten the gap in their power, simply hugging Kiana’s leg and wailing: “Gwah!
Don’t blow it up, I say!”
“Ho ho~ So humans really are interesting.
You were so afraid of me just now, yet now you’re willing to lung at me and beg for mercy just for a little island?” Kiana let out a very smug, trashy laugh, much like a certain blood-colored snake-skinned monster who can never brew a good cup of coffee.
“I’ve decided, I won’t destroy your island!” Kiana took out a Spear of the Void, mimicked it into a cane, and threw it to Raven.
She then sat on thin air with her legs crossed, her Ringlets having come undone, her white hair draped behind her like silk.
“Make your choice, Raven!”
Raven looked down at the cane, struggle in the depths of her eyes.
She hated the Herrscher of the Void, but in the current situation, if she didn’t surrender, she would die.
She could only compromise for the sake of survival. You are reading on novelping.com, the official source.
‘As long as I wait for the Lord to return, everything will be fine!’ Thinking of the strongest man of the Previous Era that Gray Serpent spoke of, Raven’s gaze became as resolute as a long-term vegetarian.
She leaned over to pick up the cane and let out a series of loud laughs.
“Then—there is only one answer!
I shall…
pledge my loyalty to you!” Raven slammed the Spear of the Void cane against her knee with all her might, and then…
there was one more Raven on the ground, rolling around while clutching her knee.
“Ah, I forgot.
The Spear of the Void is still a fodder detector, isn’t it?
Ehe?” Kiana finally remembered that while the Spear of the Void performed poorly against Herrschers and the strong, it was still a weapon of mass destruction for someone like Raven.
It was impossible for her to break it.
Realizing this, Kiana turned back and acted cute toward the speechless Welt, the helpless Raiden Mei, and Durandal, trying to play it off with cuteness.
It might not seem tempting right now but who knows what the future holds?
“And If you’re enjoying it, drop a Power Stone for me!”
