Swear Fealty To Me, My Subjects!

The anchor point released souls continuously and radiated in all directions.

These souls from another world spread silently and countless corpses in various parts of the Heavenly Kingdoms obtained life.

Thereafter, the corpses killed the living and more living corpses were born continuously, expanding in all directions.

The Heavenly Kingdoms had already turned into hell.

People died and sacrificed continuously.

Such sacrifices were unavoidable.

That was because the Far Silences could not be killed in their soul states.

Only when they fused with the bodies of the mortal world and completed the resonance would they die like living beings when their bodies died…

That was an extremely cruel truth.

This meant that when the factions of the mortal world wanted to kill a Far Silence soul, they had to forcefully consume a corpse.

It could be a corpse in the cemetery.

But it could also be a living being that was killed.

They had to sacrifice as many lives as they wanted to kill Far Silence. This was the cruelest equivalent exchange.

The Heavenly Kingdoms were the only line of defense before the mortal world.

No matter what, they could not lose.

However, if they wanted to use the Heavenly Kingdoms to block the attack of Far Silence and destroy it in the Heavenly Kingdoms, it meant that the High Elves of the Heavenly Kingdoms would have to bear all the sacrifices in this war.

The fragments of the Evil Star were still bombarding down.

This number had far exceeded the maximum of 20 recorded in history.

At that moment, even the Evil Star in the sky had already staked everything on it.

The trajectory of the Evil Star had already changed forcefully since yesterday. It was approaching the mortal world continuously. At the risk of being captured by the planet's guidance, they threw down another batch of anchor points at all costs…

The second batch of anchor points arrived an hour after the war began, causing the battlefield that had just been controlled to fall into chaos again.

How many Far Silence souls were there in the second batch of anchor points?

How many lives would the Heavenly Kingdoms have to sacrifice to offset the invading souls as well and end this war?

Rayne waved his sword again and the spatial slash that connected the Heavenly Kingdoms in all directions killed a new batch of revived living corpses instantly.

Thanks to the unique advantage of the Heavenly Kingdoms, for Rayne, victory in this war was almost certain.

Four super demigods were gathered above the Heavenly Kingdoms. Even if the Heavenly Kingdoms' front line collapsed completely, they alone were enough to suppress the entire place.

Even Histia received the news. As she dealt with her other work, she looked at the sky from time to time. This strongest demigod in the mortal world could open a teleportation gate to the Heavenly Kingdom at any moment and rule the battlefield.

The six Imperial Guards of Haines were on guard.

Leta's demigods received the orders for the expedition as well.

The checks and balances left behind by Order were extremely efficient. This war was limited to the Heavenly Kingdoms that did not possess corpses of divinity beings.

As long as the defense line known as the Heavenly Kingdoms was strong enough, there was no reason for Far Silence to win.

However…

Who would care about the sacrifice of the Heavenly Kingdoms?

Every time a Far Silence living corpse was killed, it meant that a High Elf had to be sacrificed first.

The war had clearly arrived and the territory of the High Elves was about to turn into the bloodiest meat grinder.

However, the various Heavenly Kingdoms had no intention of evacuating the citizens.

Even though they had already formed a wartime alliance with Haines, none of the kings of the Heavenly Kingdoms came to ask Rayne to protect their citizens.

That was because all the rulers knew the most fundamental and basic aspect of history.

In other words, the only strategy used by their seniors to defeat Far Silence.

If they wanted to win the war, they needed even more. Yes, even more... Sacrifices!

That was how the Heavenly Kingdoms won the first Far Silence war a thousand years ago.

This was also how they won the Far Silence war 2,000 years ago.

3,000 years ago, when the High Elves were on the ground, they watched the gods defeat Far Silence in the same way.

Sacrifices were inevitable.

It was impossible to avoid.

Why did Order need countries to act as a line of defense and not set up a fortress line to fight against Far Silence or send Disciplinary Angels directly?

That was because the population of the Heavenly Kingdoms was also a part of the defense line.

There were more deaths, more pain, more blood sprayed and internal organs leaked…ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novelenglish.net . Fire(.)nᴇt

In the flames of war, the screams and cries of the commoners were so ear-piercing.

In the mirror formed by the dimensional rifts, Rayne saw palaces being breached one after another and the kings of the Heavenly Kingdoms going offline one after another.

No one could save these High Elves who were about to die.

Rayne could not and neither could the demigods.

They could win the war and protect the mortal world.

However, they were unable to take responsibility for the living beings of the Heavenly Kingdoms.

According to the original plan, 20 anchor points would be activated. In order to neutralize the Far Silence souls, after consuming all the corpses first, there would probably be 80% of the Heavenly Kingdoms' population left.

But now, the Evil Star had cast a second batch of anchor points at all costs.

Since the corpses had already been used up, if they wanted to destroy these new souls, they would have to use the lives of living people.

The Heavenly Kingdoms had to kill to the last person in order to complete their mission.

Right now, there was only one way to save the Heavenly Kingdoms.

There was only one person who could save these High Elves…

The destined hero that only belonged to the High Elves.

It was not Rayne.

Nor was it the demigods.

Instead…

Suddenly, the wall of the Star Attendant Court was shattered with a bang. A distorted object that was charging at high speed flew towards Rayne against the dense magic of the Star Attendants like a storm and let out a strange roar that was completely unlike the vocal cords of ordinary people!

Rayne raised his hand and blocked the seemingly unstoppable gigantic monster with ease.

He caught sight of the monster's true appearance.

It was the God King.

…

In reality, the deformed and distorted flesh before him no longer looked like the God King.

However, Rayne made a deduction based on logic.

This thing... could only be the God King.

Ever since that day, the God King had been resisting the corruption of Far Silence with all his might.

In this endless and hopeless struggle, the God King's body was corroded bit by bit and mutated.

His body turned into cracked tentacles that were drenched in blood and rotted day by day.

Throughout this painful and despairing process, the God King maintained his consciousness.

Even if he had to endure the pain of his heart being corroded and his body being torn apart…

He still persevered and arrived before Rayne at that moment.

He did not hurt anyone along the way.

He just wanted to see Rayne again and ask Rayne to end it for him.

"Rayne…"

The God King's voice sounded from the distorted flesh monster. All his eyes were on the Starburst Sword in Rayne's hand.

The God King seemed to laugh.

"How impressive… you've tamed the Starburst!"

Rayne looked at the burning Starburst in his hand. "This was originally yours."

The God King roared with laughter that was mixed with the strange growls of monsters. He tried his best to fight for control of his body so that his distorted body could continue speaking in human language.

"It's just something for the capable."

To the God King, the Starburst was a manifestation of his value and was his most precious treasure.

However, apart from the Starburst, he also cherished a friend like Rayne whom he truly liked from the bottom of his heart.
