After achieving 100% divine power.
Something unexpected happened.
【In celebration of achieving 100% divine power, ‘Raging Sea’ bestows a blessing upon the user.】
The power of the sea filled with rage settled within me.
【’Traveler Guiding Souls’ bestows a blessing upon the user.】
A cold and heavy energy symbolizing death settled within me.
〖These damn bastards!〗
‘Evil’ screamed as it sensed the presence of the Three Sovereign Gods.
The moment the demons that came through the gate it created rushed toward me.
Flash!
An intense light, different from before, burst from my entire body.
It was light filled with the power of all Three Sovereign Gods.
Kyaaaak! Kiyak!
The demons touched by the light screamed and fled. Some of the weaker ones were purified and vanished on the spot.
Ah, this is light that protects me.
〖Aaaaak!〗
The purifying light didn’t spare ‘Evil’ either.
‘Evil’ glared at me while clutching its blackened left shoulder.
〖How can you, a mere Holy Maiden of the Sun God, possess the power of all Three Sovereign Gods?〗
Are you stupid? Do you think I’m crazy enough to reveal trade secrets to an enemy?
〖I’ll kill you and find out!〗
‘Evil’ spewed pitch-black poison toward me.
It was poison so thick and terrible that it couldn’t even be compared to what Feliks had used.
If even a single drop splashed on me, my body would melt instantly without a chance to purify it.
If it had been before achieving 100% divine power.
Crash!
Before the poison it spewed could reach me, a beam of light struck down from the sky.
It was extremely hot and intense light, as if all the sunlight was concentrated solely on me.
Hissss.
The poison that collided with the light was neutralized, emitting black smoke.
The current ‘Evil’ cannot penetrate this light.
Because the Sun God is no longer weaker than ‘Evil’.
Do you know how hard I worked to restore the Sun God so that the same thing as my previous life wouldn’t repeat?
Moreover, the Holy Maiden and Holy Sage of the Sea God are intact, and the Eternal God even gained a very beautiful and strong Holy Maiden.
In contrast, ‘Evil’ has lost all its subordinates and only demons remain.
Now it can never defeat the Three Sovereign Gods.
The scales have already tilted completely toward us.
【’Light of Indomitability and Faith’ protects the user.】
Then the light that struck me spread in all directions.
Crash!
The pitch-black wall that had blocked me and the people shattered into pieces with a roar the moment it touched the light.
“What is this?”
“Over there!”
People were confused by the suddenly broken wall.
Everyone’s gaze turned toward me, emitting light.
“Ordel!”
“Del!”
I could hear Jin and Rute calling my name desperately, but I couldn’t turn around.
【’Light of Indomitability and Faith’ bestows a blessing upon the user.】
The light that broke the wall gathered toward me again.
From head to toe, the Sun God’s power permeated every single part of my body without exception.
【Congratulations! You have received blessings from the Three Sovereign Gods! You have satisfied the conditions for acquiring a new skill.】
【You have acquired the user-exclusive stigmata ‘Sacred Fire’!】
【Stigmata ‘Sacred Fire’】
You can wield the power of all Three Sovereign Gods.
Ah, this is different from simply having a communication channel opened.
I can truly use their power.
“Hey, you feel it too, don’t you?”
I looked straight at ‘Evil’.
It must clearly feel the power of the Three Sovereign Gods surging within me.
Since it’s the power of those it wanted to kill.
“I told you, didn’t I? You will definitely die in this life.”
And I was someone who did what I said I would do.
〖Kill that thing!〗
‘Evil’ shouted at the demons.
The demons, having received the command, no longer feared and rushed toward me.
And the cowardly and sinister ‘Evil’ tried to flee in that gap.
“Where do you think you’re going?”
Rute appeared in front of ‘Evil’.
Having now completely mastered the use of divine power, he swung his sword.
“Because of you, I almost lost Ordel again. I absolutely, absolutely cannot forgive you.”
〖Move! I said move!〗
‘Evil’ screamed, but Rute didn’t back down even a little.
〖Why, why can’t I move? Why!〗
‘Evil’ can use an ability similar to spatial movement, like when it spirited Feliks away from the Imperial Palace Banquet Hall.
But it absolutely cannot use it now.
Because I’ve surrounded this area with the Sun God’s light.
With its power weakened to the extreme, it can never break through this wall.
You should be trapped once to understand my pain.
“We cannot let our Holy Maiden be hurt any longer.”
“When I couldn’t do anything, do you think I’d let you escape?”
“I absolutely won’t forgive you.”
Airic, Seth, and Jeremy also joined to block ‘Evil’s’ path.
“Jin, Carmen, Dominic.”
While Carly and Duke Aria dealt with the demons along with the soldiers.
I called the three people.
“You, just what…”
Carmen and Dominic looked at me with trembling eyes.
They all must have felt it. The power of all Three Sovereign Gods surging within me.
But this isn’t enough.
Even though I received blessings, since I’m not the Holy Maiden of the Eternal God and Sea God, the power I can use is limited.
So I needed everyone’s help.
“Give me your power.”
I reached out my hands to the three people.
Jin immediately grabbed my right hand firmly.
【User ‘Joo Hyun-jin’ transfers the divine power and divine force of ‘Traveler Guiding Souls’.】
The uniquely cool energy of the Eternal God filled my body completely.
“I was angry thinking you were trying to face danger alone again.”
Jin, who had been staring at me, let out a sigh.
“It seems like you had some scheme, so I’ll forgive you just this once.”
“A scheme? Call it a plan.”
I winked with one eye.
I promised to spend my entire life with you in this world, so there’s no way I’d invite danger upon myself.
“…You do have a way to win, right?”
Carmen, who had been watching Jin and me, pulled Dominic’s hesitating hand and grasped my left hand together.
“Carmen!”
“Dominic, you can feel it too. The Sea God’s aura that Ordel possesses.”
Carmen looked at Dominic with wide eyes.
“If you want to win, you have to give it.”
【’Carmen Aria’ transfers the divine power of ‘Raging Sea’ to the User.】
Carmen transferred her divine power to me without hesitation.
Only Dominic remained.
Under the fierce gazes of Jin and Carmen, he too eventually let out a sigh.
【’Dominic Aria’ transfers the divine power of ‘Raging Sea’ to the User.】
【You have obtained the complete divine power of ‘Raging Sea’.】
As expected, the two were one.
Only after receiving Dominic’s divine power as well did the strength properly surge within me.
“You must achieve victory.”
I smiled at Dominic’s stern warning.
“Don’t worry. I’m someone who came to this world for victory.”
I came to stand in this place through the countless wishes for victory that gathered and accumulated.
So I will not fail.
For everyone’s sake as well.
【You have sufficiently acquired the power of the Three Sovereign Gods.】
【The stigma ‘Sacred Fire’ is reacting!】
“Ha.”
This, this is beyond what the word fullness could describe.
Sunlight, waves, and wind swirled madly within my body.
They spun freely, collided, intensified, scattered, and gathered again repeatedly.
【The stigma ‘Sacred Fire’ unites the power of the Three Sovereign Gods into one!】
The three powers that seemed like they would never mix began to blend within me.
Strand by strand, delicately, so firmly that they could never be undone.
My heart pounded frantically from the power too overwhelming for a human body to handle.
But it wasn’t painful.
Rather, it was thrilling. Confidence that I could do anything surged within me.
The oppressive aura of ‘Evil’ could no longer weigh me down.
【Activating the stigma ‘Sacred Fire’!】
What is sacred fire?
According to the dictionary, it means a saint edifying people through virtuous deeds.
It also refers to the light when a meteor falls, and the sacred flame lit for gods.
The stigma ‘Sacred Fire’ I possessed encompassed all these meanings.
Whoosh!
Flames blazed from my entire body.
Golden, red, blue, black, white.
It was a five-colored flame where all colors mixed beautifully.
My body, wrapped in sacred fire, slowly rose into the air.
My fluttering pink hair was dyed by the sacred fire, slowly changing to golden from the tips.
My eyes shone with five colors resembling the flames of sacred fire.
At this moment, I was the sacred fire itself.
〖How, how do you possess such power…!〗
‘Evil’, who had struck down the charging Rute, sensed my aura and whirled around.
Even though ‘Evil’ had weakened considerably, he was still an absolute being.
Seth, Airic, and Jeremy were all covered in wounds.
Without Rute, the three would have died long ago.
Damn bastard. Making my people suffer until the very end?
〖Why, why can’t I teleport!〗
‘Evil’ screamed in frustration, having apparently tried to teleport continuously even while fighting.
I sneered at him.
“There’s no way I wouldn’t have prepared countermeasures for your teleportation. Letting you slip away right before my eyes once was enough.”
I raised my hand.
The iron mace that had been far away flew over with a whoosh.
Crack!
I used the lightning of judgment to instantly get behind ‘Evil’.
〖You think I’ll fall for such a trivial trick!〗
As expected of an absolute being, he grasped my movement and immediately launched an attack.
Dark energy explosively burst from his entire body, but I wasn’t afraid.
I already broke through that, didn’t I?
Now it would be even easier.
Crash!
I swung my iron mace and completely shattered his defensive barrier.
The moment the startled creature’s eyes widened.
Whack!
I swung my fist and struck ‘Evil’ right in the center of his face.
Crack!
The sound of breaking bones rang out very satisfyingly.
It was the sound of a hundred-year-old frustration finally being relieved.
