Gawain’s body fell from mid-air, battered and bruised. Before he could stand up, a tall figure appeared before him.
Facing the suddenly appearing Tamara, Gawain was slightly stunned. What he hadn’t expected was that without saying a word, Tamara directly drew her curved bow and aimed an arrow straight at Gawain’s brow.
Had this woman gone mad?
Instead of thinking about escaping, she was attacking him?
Full of doubts, Gawain dodged with the greatest speed. He evaded Tamara’s attack, and upon landing, his body sprung up, but as he was about to rise, his right hand touched a piece of cold metal.
He looked down and saw the broken half of a longsword.
“Cursed Sword?”
Unarmed and grievously injured, without time to think further, Gawain gripped the half-sword and raised it to block.
The remnants of dark energy lingered on the blade, surging into his body and jolting Gawain.
Roger, after all, wasn’t the true master of the Cursed Sword. In his hurried outbreak, it was impossible for him to completely drain all the energy from the weapon.
For Gawain at that moment, this weapon was like a life-saving straw. The energies between them matched perfectly, and the wounds on his body were healing at an incredibly fast rate.
When he looked up, he noticed that Tamara, who had been relentlessly pursuing him, had stopped her attack.
“It’s you, it was you all along!”
Tamara murmured to herself, her gaze at Gawain flickering with emotions she couldn’t comprehend.
Hatred, excitement, doubt, shock.
A myriad of emotions, all at once.
“What are you saying?”
Gawain was slightly taken aback.
“Has this woman lost her mind?”
Before Gawain could get his thoughts straight, a piercing scream came from Tamara in the distance, “It was you who killed my son!”
“I regret it so much. Why, why didn’t I see through your true face sooner?”
She remembered the fight in the Underwater World, the deception. She thought of his fearlessness and mockery.
“I should have realized it earlier. My suspicions were not wrong. It was indeed the Round Table Knight’s doing. It was Gawain, my child, he must have discovered Gawain’s secret.”
“So that’s why…”
The clues in her mind converged, and all of Tamara’s thoughts lingered on Krus’ frozen expression.
That look seemed to mock Tamara’s helplessness.
Emotions that had been building erupted completely. She threw caution to the wind and charged. Even though her energy was nearly depleted, there was only one thought in Tamara’s heart.
She was determined to kill him at any cost.
To kill Gawain!
“Die, Gawain, you despicable scoundrel!”
Gawain’s eyes widened, bewildered by the sight of the frenzied Tamara, “What’s going on?”
He always felt there were countless unexpected events in this journey, unexpectedly discovered, unexpected mad woman.
“Wait a minute…”
“It seems all the recent surprises have something to do with a certain person…”
Gawain did not wish to engage in any incomprehensible battles right now. Things had gone awry, he had prepared meticulously, yet in the end, he had gained nothing.
Clenching his teeth, Gawain turned and fled into the distance.
On the other side, after many attempts, Lilith finally accepted the outcome with reluctance.
“All because of your arrival.”
“If it weren’t for you being here, I would have caught that damn bug and squashed him earlier!”
Faced with this result, Lilith completely lost her composure.
“That’s just a corpse, Lilith. You’ve been ensnared by him.”
“To us, that is the real demon.”
“Excuses, these are all excuses!” Lilith’s face twisted savagely.
“He’s already dead. What’s been bewitching us isn’t some so-called lingering consciousness, but you yourself.”
The mirror reappeared behind Lilith, its smooth surface now marred by many cracks.
“I have a way, I still have a way.”
“Once I’ve killed you…”
At that moment, a blood-red figure appeared again on the palace ceiling. However, as the ugly body emerged, Lilith appeared beside it in an instant.
“My…”
Before Sim could even open his mouth, Lilith mercilessly smashed his head in a place unseen by anyone, and in a palace, statues began to shatter one after another.
Simultaneously, the cracks on Lilith’s mirror healed a good portion.
“Tell me, Green, are you ready to endure the endless torment that’s coming?”
Green bowed, his face showing utter exhaustion.
“I can still wield a sword now,” he replied.
“With your current condition, you will die,” she said.
Lilith taunted.
“No, it won’t.”
As he spoke, Green tightened his grip on Alessandro’s skull.
Alessandro instantly understood something and let out a dreadful scream, “Green, do you have no dignity as a 4th-tier Transcendent? You promised me.”
“You promised me!”
“It seems, I deceived you.”
Green answered expressionlessly.
“Haha, so did I, the location I told you just now is not correct, if I die…”
Alessandro laughed uproariously.
Thud!
Green, however, chose not to listen any further and without any hesitation, crushed Alessandro’s skull.
“Your blood tells me, you spoke the truth just now.”
Green’s gaze was resolute.
The vitality stored within Alessandro’s skull surged into Green’s body, but at this moment Green’s entire being showed no sign of recovery.
His body aged at a visibly fast pace, continuing until he was reduced to nothing but a skeletal dry corpse.
“Now you do look a bit like that old ghost.”
Lilith didn’t take the opportunity to attack Green.
Their grudge had become tangled over nearly a century, and mere slaughter could no longer soothe the hatred in her heart.
To defeat him, to torment him.
“Use whatever tricks you have left, this is your last chance.”
Lilith’s gaze fell upon Gaharad.
“I’m really curious, what exactly have you hidden with this woman?”
She gave a sinister smile, “Is she your ace in the hole?”
“Or a dagger hidden up your sleeve?”
“Let me guess.”
“You need her dead, preferably killed by someone else, then she can be of use to you, right?”
Gaharad turned ashen, wanting to move but found herself seemingly encased within a transparent mirror, invisible walls surrounding her from all sides.
“Do you think I’ll fall for it?”
Lilith snickered.
“You think I can’t smell the filth between you and this woman?”
“You’re urging me to kill her, but I will let her live.”
“Until you die!”
Having said that, Lilith suddenly spread her arms, an invisible force radiated outward, the Magic Mirror hovering above her head. The light reflected from the mirror enveloped the entire space.
“The final blow!”
Green stepped forward, and with his step, the distance between him and Lilith remained unchanged. Yet, oddly enough, Gaharad in the distance felt as if the space between Green and Lilith had disappeared.
This disparity between senses and sight was very discomforting, but immediately thereafter, Gaharad felt a change within her body.
She stood rigid, having lost control over her own body.
On the other side, Green finally thrust the sword in his hand.
This thrust was aimed at thin air, yet the final attack landed right in front of Lilith, the barriers enveloping Green shattered layer by layer.
The Sword of Destiny; the terror of this weapon did not lie in its killing power, but in its uncanny connectivity — just like its name.
Only at the moment when the attack is about to land or when a wound appears does the enemy realize where the attack from the Sword of Destiny has struck.
Before that, everything is unknown.
“I have already seen through your attack.”
Lilith sneered.
“Indeed, your weapon is inscrutable, too bad you’ve encountered me.”
“Mirrors are everywhere; you will never find my true location.”
“No matter where you attack, it will ultimately be reflected by me.”
“I know you had that head searching for something, seeking the true location of the Magic Mirror.”
“But it’s meaningless.”
Lilith revealed a victorious smile.
“The Sword of Destiny.”
“Dying by my hand is your destiny.”
Just at that moment, Green, who had swung his weapon, raised his head.
“Who says it’s meaningless?”
“The moment you thought you had seen through my thoughts, my objective was achieved.”
Upon hearing Green’s words, Lilith’s complexion drastically changed!
