Chapter 101


    "The rules of this world?" Lucius sat on the roof of this church, watching the view of the vige.


    His slightly long ck hair stuck to his forehead; his hand rested on his chin as he stared at the vige, shrouded in the rain.


    ..


    Even though the rain fell heavily, the vigers left their houses and walked to the vige square.


    The outsiders'' who rushed into this vige did not cause any panic to these vigers. The golden mark on the knight''s armor represented their identity.


    "Isn''t that Mia?"


    "Why is shethere?"


    Apparently, she didn''t have that much contact with the vigers. Only older people know her.


    She was tied tightly to a tower in the center of the vige. She lowered her head. Rain-soaked her clothes and long hair, she waited patiently for her fate.


    In heavy armor, the Commander Knight stepped onto the high tform, pointing his fingers to Mia, proimed loudly.


    "Mia Dodran! A Saint whomitted a taboo! Going against the order of this world and escaping to the earth realm with your own selfish desire! Trying to recreate the bloodshed tragedy of decades ago. From this moment on, she''s no longer a Saint who maintains the order of this world. But a Fallen One who selfishly does whatever she wants!"


    "That" The vigers couldn''t believe it. The legendary existenceparable to a God had appeared in front of them. But


    Hearing the title Fallen One,'' they couldn''t help but shivered.


    It was everyone''s nightmare. The bloodshed decades ago had spread the mes of war across the continent.


    They barely had enough space to bury the dead. The corpses were rotting as they piled up.


    Everyone who had grown up experienced those bitter and unforgettable days


    "This is the will of the Dragon God!" With the shout that cut through the rain, the sky shrouded in dark clouds suddenly cleared up, in azure light.


    "Behold! The Dragon God''s punishment for sinners!"


    They believed noble creatures like Dragons were a divine being from the moment they opened their eyes.


    They believed the Dragon''s blood ran through their veins. The belief is rooted deeply in their hearts.


    Seeing the miracle'' in the sky, all of them fell on their knees in the pouring rain, chanting the name of their Gods.


    This was the reason why this world could be united.


    Lucius quietly gazed at the scene, recalling the day he fell into despair. Of the day where he lost his sister.


    The people who used their pious faith to cover up their filthy sins and killed his sister in the name of justice.''


    The voices they shouted, their fanatical eyes towards their God,'' Lucius remembered it all. The scum that had done evil things in the garb of justice.


    But no one can define right or wrong.


    He''s the one who can make his own judgment.


    Lucius''s fingers danced in rhythm, a drop of blood flowed through the rainwater and slipped into the church below.


    "The color of the rain, I hate it "Lucius looked at the sky, "A transparent, powerless color. It''s more beautiful if it''s dyed in scarlet! It''s time to look yourself in the eye and abandon your fearsmonster."


    Don''t be a coward like me.


    Lucius closed his eyes.


    Naiya struggled with all her might, but Mia''s binding was too powerful. Naiya couldn''t break free.


    <em>Damn damn it!</em> Naiya listened to the sound of rain pouring outside the building and was distracted.


    She hated rainy days because she couldn''t feel the sunlight and the shrouding darkness


    She also hated being alone


    As she tried her best to break free from the restraint given to her by Mia, a drop of blood suddenly dripped onto her brow.


    The icy touch spread throughout her body. For a moment, Naiya felt that she had regained control of her limbs.


    Instead of pondering why she immediately ran to the window.


    <em>I forbid you to leave me alone</em>


    Naiya stood by the window, looking out over the center of the vige. Her hand clenched the edge of the window, her whole body stiffened.


    "The Fallen One! Kill her!"


    "The filth must disappear from this world!"


    "In the name of God!"


    The vigers who knew Mia were gathering against her, shouting harsh words as if they were possessed.


    Mia was tied to a stake, powerless amidst the wind and rain, but no one there took pity on her.


    <em>Damn!</em> Naiya''s strength was so great that she nearly crushed the edge of the window.


    Her violet eyes showed a tint of scarlet hue, a dagger appeared in her hand, and she was about to go through the rain curtain to save the foolish woman


    Naiya locked her gaze with a pair of peaceful eyes.


    It was Mia''s


    Through the curtain of rain, she saw Naiya standing at the church window.


    <em>I''ll be right there to rescue you!</em>


    But then, Mia shook her head.


    "!"


    <em>Are you stupid?</em> A violent rage erupted in Naiya''s heart, and her eyes were gradually taken over by scarlet.


    From a distance, Mia gazed at Naiya. Her lips moved, uttering her final sentence, she smiled herst smile at Naiya. No killing, no violence''


    Just like what she said every day.


    Naiya''s dagger ttered to the ground. Her anger would dissipate every time she saw the stupid woman''s smile.


    By the time Naiya realized her dagger had fallen to the ground, she had realized that she had lost her chance to save her.


    The divine punishment had finally arrived!


    The azure light gathered above the dark clouds in the sky tore through the clouds and descended upon the world. Allowing the mortal to witness the power of Gods.''


    An azure light pierced through Mia''s heart in front of Naiya. Blood blossomed in her chest. Raindrops carried the red hue.


    The ground blossomed with scarlet. The fire began to spread on the ground, Mia''s weak body fell to the ground, powerless. Engulfed in the fire.


    However, the crowds cheered, thrilled that they had witnessed the glory of the Gods.


    Celebrating the death of the sinful Fallen One. The cheering voices overpowered the rain. None of them cared about the me engulfed body.


    .


    Naiya sat down on the ground, helplessly. Staring with empty eyes at the rain and the raging fire that looked like nothing could extinguish it. She sat still with nk eyes


    Why are you hesitating, half-wit?''


    A familiar voice sounded inside her mind.


    Even so, you can still show mercy to humans?''


    Naiya didn''t answer the voice. She just sat still on the ground, like a puppet whose string was cut off.


    Suddenly, there was the sound of organized steps at the doorway. The door was violently opened by two knights in silvery-white armor.


    The knights stepped into the room, and on their des, there were still traces of blood that had not yet dried


    "I can''t believe there''s another one left alone."


    The knights showed no mercy and walked to Naiya, who was sitting on the floor. Grabbed her by her long ck hair. The pain made her almost spill her tears.


    How pathetic.''


    The voice whispered, mocking her.


    "Whoah, her hair is pretty long."


    "Stop talking. We have to kill everything involved with the Fallen One. ording to the kids we''ve dealt with, she''s the only one left."


    Thekids?


    You''re all grown up now. You don''t need me anymore. So stay here and take care of the kids for me, will you?''


    Mia''sst wish echoed in her head.


    Light returned from Naiya''s nk eyes, and she looked at the knight''s sword in his hand. It was soaked with blood. Obviously, it hadn''t parted with its owner for long.


    The blood scent permeated her nose.


    "<em>Tch</em> I''m so done with killing helpless kids in their sleep. When will we finally be able to fight real monsters?"


    "Shut up and do your job! Quickly! I had a bad feeling about this."


    "What bad feeling? You''re just-" The soldier''s words came to an abrupt stop because an arm pierced his abdomen!


    The fair skin was stained with a beautiful scarlet hue after running through the human body.


    A pair of scarlet eyes forever imprinted in thest moment of his life.


    The real monster hase!
