Kalya and the other girls were shocked and trembled by the appearance of this majestic-looking giant creature. They nearly knelt unconsciously in front of the creature because of the tremendous pressure they felt. Luckily, Ziel quickly shrouded the ind they were on with a barrier. So the pressure that ra and the girls felt disappeared. On the other hand, King Raghnall focused on something other than the golden giant.


    "That is a true divine dress! As expected of a real divine dress, its strength is far different from my Saint Armor!" King Raghnall was both excited and disappointed when he saw the divine dress that Fornius was wearing. He felt that the hard work over the years to create the Saint Armor was in vain. The artifact he had created turned out to bepletely iparable to the original divine dress. His armor looks very patheticpared to the armor currently worn by Fornius.


    "Father, shouldn''t you focus on that gigantic creature instead of the armor that man is wearing. I don''t know if we can survive that golden giant or not. I feel a terrifying power from that creature." Princess Cordelia said in a trembling voice to her father. Even though Ziel has put a barrier in that ce, the fear that Princess Cordelia feels due to the pressure of the golden giant hasn''t gone away.


    "Haa… if we are destined to die in this ce, then there''s nothing we can do. But at least I can see the real divine dress up close. So I have no regrets." King Raghnall sighed heavily and looked at the golden giant in front of him. His face doesn''t show any fear like Princess Cordelia''s.


    Kyouka and Megumi felt the same horror as Princess Cordelia. They were currently together with ra and Princess Iris. They kept their distance from Princess Cordelia because they felt ufortable if they continued to be with her. They were already irritated with Princess Cordelia.


    "Will Ken be okay against such a creature?" ra started to worry when she saw Fornius summon a golden giant that even made the entire space in the area tremble. She and the other girls could even feel how incredible his power was even though the giant just stood still and didn''t do anything.


    "I''m sure he''ll be fine because he''s fought creatures more terrifying than that." The one who answered ra''s concern was Princess Freya. They weren''t too far apart, so she could hear ra''s voice. Princess Freya, Princess Aishia, Kalya, and Lilith walked slowly towards ra.


    "A creature more terrifying than that golden giant? What kind of monster is that?" ra turned around and asked Princess Freya curiously. Her worries were diverted due to curiosity about Ziel that she didn''t know.


    "That is…" Princess Freya was lost for words and didn''t know what to say. She probably shouldn''t have talked about it since it was rted to many things and would likely reveal the rtionship between Kalya, Princess Freya, and Ziel.


    "Why? Is that not something I should know so you can''t answer, Freya?" ra narrowed her eyes suspiciously at Princess Freya''s behavior.


    "Hmm... it''s not like that. I had forgotten about it because it was a long time ago. The thing I remember is that the monster he fought back then was far more powerful and terrifying than that golden giant. Isn''t that right, Miss Kalya?" Princess Freya tried to divert ra''s question to Kalya. She couldn''t stand the pressure of ra''s suspicious gaze. Kalya only gave a small nod in response to Princess Freya''s question.


    "Is that so? If that''s the case, I''ll find out myself." ra averted her gaze and no longer cared about Princess Freya. Even though they said that Ziel had fought with more terrifying monsters, she still couldn''t shake off the worry in her heart.


    Princess Freya couldn''t help but sigh after hearing ra''s statement. She couldn''t do anything if ra asked Ziel about it. After all, the rtionship between the three of them would be exposed sooner orter. Kalya patted her shoulder gently and smiled. She was in the same position and thought as Princess Freya. They don''t know how ra will react if she finds out that Ziel is having an affair with the two of them.


    As the girls were lost in their thoughts, Fornius entered the creature''s body that looked like a thunder god. Then the golden giant began to move. The creature looked at Ziel and seemed to make him its target. The eyes of the golden giant gleamed and shot a pair ofser beams at Ziel.


    Ziel pointed the index fingers of his right and left hands at the pair of goldenser beams that wereing his way. He countered the attack with a couple of redser beams.


    [Thunder Beam]


    Their attacks shed in the sky and pushed against each other. But Ziel couldn''t keep standing still as the golden giant swung his hammer at him. One swing of the hammer created a violent thunderstorm in the area. Then from that hammer, hundreds of golden lightning shed to where Ziel was before. But Ziel had already disappeared from there and appeared before the giant''s face. He punched the creature''s forehead with the red lightning that condensed in his hand.


    Boooooommmmmm!


    The golden giant was knocked back several meters but quickly stabilized itself. The creature red at Ziel then spoke.


    "You are a very annoying flea." Fornius'' voice came from the golden giant''s mouth. His voice sounded very loud and resounded in the sky. Fornius acted as the one who moved the creature. Without Fornius moving it, perhaps the giant was just a condensed mass of divine power with a human-like shape.


    This time, Fornius disappeared from Ziel''s sight and reappeared behind him. The creature has the incredible speed for such arge body size. Fornius swung his hammer again, and serpent-shaped lightning struck Ziel.


    "I thought you couldn''t speak while in that giant body. But it seemed like the creature was like a golem made of divine power. Without you, the creature is just a lump of energy." Ziel told his observations of the golden giant to Fornius. He spoke while dodging the horde of lightning serpents attacking him.


    "You''re right. But these creatures weren''t just golems. This creature is full of my divine lightning and won''t break or die no matter how many times you attack it. As long as I live, this creature will live. What''s more..." The golden giant brandished his hammer at the sky.


    Golden lightning gathered above the hammer and formed a ball of energy. Gradually the energy ball got bigger and bigger until the energy ball covered the sky and erased the thundercloud. The size of the energy ball was muchrger than the energy ball Crossel had created in the Elven Kingdom. The energy ball was formed by the lightning element, which possessed tremendous destructive power.


    "The strength of this creature is not something that humans like you can measure!" Fornius grinned as if he had already confirmed his victory. He swung his hammer at the gigantic ball of energy in the sky. He hit the giant energy ball like ying tennis.


    [Lightning Sphere]


    The giant golden energy ball shot at high speed in Ziel''s direction. The space along the path of the energy ball is distorted. Ziel narrowed his eyes at that pool of energy and sensed the danger within. At least he would be seriously injured if hit by that attack directly. Moreover, the size of the attack was also extraordinarilyrge. If the energy ball exploded, he felt that the damage must be enormous. ra and the girls on the ind and the academy people scattered across the ocean would be affected.


    Ziel had to do everything he could to prevent the golden energy ball from exploding. Otherwise, maybe the barrier Ziel created won''t withstand the explosion. He stored his ck sword in his space storage.


    Ziel raised both his hands in front of his chest. Red lightning gathered in his hand and a ball of red energy formed between his palms. Zielpressed the crimson lightning into thousands ofyers at an incredible speed.


    In contrast to Fornius'' gigantic golden energy ball, Ziel''s red energy ball was only the size of a tennis ball. The size of Ziel''s red energy ball was not even a hundredth of Fornius''s. After the red energy ball stabilized, Ziel grabbed it and threw it towards Fornius'' golden energy ball.


    [Star Seed]


    Ziel''s little red energy ball shot towards Fornius'' giant golden energy ball. The two energy balls neither exploded nor pushed against each other as they shed in the sky, but the red energy ball was sucked into the golden energy ball, or so it seemed.


    "Hahaha…I thought you''d be throwing out a shocking attack. But it turns out you just threw a tennis ball. You should know that you''re just doing a pointless thing by throwing a pebble into the ocean. Since it is yourst resort, then die!" Forniusughed mockingly at Ziel. He thought that Ziel wouldunch another attack that would surprise him, but it seems he was overestimating Ziel just because he managed tond his attack on him.


    But Fornius'' smile suddenly hardened upon seeing the scene before his eyes. His golden energy ball suddenly stopped, and red cracks appeared on its surface. It wasn''t long before a red light overflowed from the cracks and enveloped the golden energy ball. The golden energy ball''s size rapidly shrunk, suppressed by the redyer that enveloped it. Not long after, the gigantic ball of energy became the size of a marble and then disappearedpletely.


    "What!" Fornius didn''t know what to say at the absurd sight in front of him. He was experiencing this for the first time in the hundreds of years he had lived. Fornius inside the golden giant broke out in cold sweat as he felt that the opponent he was facing this time was truly terrifying. He thought that Ziel might be much stronger than Aghares, the head of the ''God Domain'' organization.


    "Who are you? Humans like you should be widely known in this Clorius continent. You possess strengthparable to those of the divine race. We don''t have any information about you as you suddenly appeared out of thin air and got in the way of all our ns." Fornius gritted his teeth and didn''t want to admit that Ziel''s strength was far superior to his. Everyone from the Divine Race had high self-esteem, and Fornius was no exception.


    "You don''t need to know about me. since you''ve killed a lot of people, so you should also be prepared to be killed." Ziel said indifferently to Fornius. He felt the need to end their fight immediately.


    "I admit that I can''t beat you, but that doesn''t mean I lost to you. If I want to get out of here, I can leave whenever I want, and you won''t be able to stop me." Fornius said arrogantly. Right now, he is thinking of retreating first and seeking information about Ziel before he takes revenge on him.


    "Is that so?" Ziel''s voice came from behind Fornius. He was already holding the ck sword in his hand and shing at the golden giant''s back.


    Fornius''s figure could be seen directly by Ziel because he had cleaved the golden giant''s back made of divine lightning condensation. Fornius'' remaining protection was the divine dress he was currently wearing.


    "What!" Fornius was taken aback by Ziel''s sudden appearance. He felt that Ziel still hadn''t used his full strength in their fight. The speed that Ziel used to appear behind Fornius was many times faster than the one he used to fight with him.


    Ziel didn''t give Fornius time to breathe. In the blink of an eye, Ziel was already in front of Fornius. Ziel intended to stab his ck sword straight into his forehead. But suddenly, Ziel frowned as he felt the distortion of space around Fornius. Ziel''s stab didn''t hit Fornius because Fornius suddenly disappeared from where he was.


    "I didn''t expect that another person from the Divine Race woulde to this ce, and his strength wouldn''t be any weaker than the one who came earlier." Ziel said calmly even though Fornius suddenly disappeared. He looked at an empty space somewhere in the area.


    Ziel saw the space suddenly distorted, and Fornius appeared from that ce along with a white-haired man.. That person was the leader of the ''God Domain'' organization, Aghares.
