The rocks fall with Saze, slamming against the floor heavily. After the dust flies up, it slowly covers Saze''s body with rocks. The rock makes him unable to move, and only his head is exposed.


    Sophia jumps off the roof and lands just a short distance from Saze. She strolls over to him, her body marked with minor wounds from their earlier fight, but overall, her injuries are not serious.


    As her footsteps approach, Saze struggles to raise his head. This time, he looked at Sophia with fear in his eyes. After all, he was afraid of death too.


    After exhausting his mana, he could no longer control his blood. Many wounds on his body begin to bleed, forming a small blood lake. He could feel his life slowly draining away.


    Sophia squats down. As if aware of the approaching death, Saze obediently closes his eyes. But what follows is not a horrible cold death instead, a gently warm stroke on the head. He slowly opens his eyes and looks at Sophia kneeling and stroking him tenderly with an incredulous look.


    "There there, you''re defeated by me now and so on, you''re my captive." Sophia says lightly with a victorious smile.


    "Orphea! Come down quickly!" Sophia looks up and shouts.


    "Okay!" Orphea shouts and jumps off from the roof.


    Her eyes widen and gasp as she sees Saze''s situation. There was a small lake of blood underneath Saze and the rocks pressed him.


    "Oh my god... remove the rocks, I will let him stop bleeding." Orphea hisses, can''t help but feel pitiful.


    "How were those spiders?" Sophia asks while using wind arcane breaking those rocks into small pieces.


    "I prisoned them and I also cured those spiders that got slashed by the luminosity warriors." Orphea replies lightly.


    This sentence made Saze, who was worried about those spiders, immediately feel relieved. For a moment, gratitude and shame collide in his heart, making him not sure how to face Orphea. After all, he has sneak attacked her before, but now she helps him regardless of his previous act.


    In the golden halo, Saze''s external injuries were quickly cured, but the most important thing was the internal injuries. Sophia''s kicks caused many of his bones to break and his internal organs to bleed.


    "Orphea... I, cough!" Saze coughs and spitting of blood as he speaks.


    "Hey! Shut up don''t speak right now, you just making your injuries worse." Orphea stops him to speak.


    "Let''s sneak out from the back after completely curing him." Sophia says and uses metal arcane to materialize a handcuff and cuff on Saze''s both hands.


    It didn''t take long for Saze''s injuries to be completely cured. After that, Sophia hits him on the back of the neck with a knife and he faints. Sophia carries him on her back and immediately leaves with Orphea.


    The battlefield is changing rapidly, no one knows whether their location is always safe. Perhaps, you are hiding behind a structure, and the next moment you can be torn into pieces by a powerful arcane spell.


    .....


    "Damn it! She is overdrawing her life!" Duke shouts.


    "Just hold on! Keep her contained until she dies!" Evan yells hoarsely.


    Both nobility elders are seriously injured now. Evan''s body completely disappears, but a transparent body stands in the Everdark realm, his boy was obliterated by Moty but he survived because of his soul arcane.


    Stolen from its rightful author, this tale is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.


    As for Duke, his head is replaced by another head that is formed by darkness or his dark arcane. He stands in the Everdark realm and faces Moty with a trembling body.


    Moty stands alone, facing two fourth stage enemies, but remains invincible as if she were a heroic Valkyrie. Her blue veins bulge out and appear on the skin, and spider legs appear on her back, this is the sign of overdrawing life, sacrificing life to get stronger power and mana is the last choice against the strong one.


    "I had enough!!!" Moty roars and erupts orange mana.


    The orange mana suddenly erupts and fills the Everdark realm. The fiery flames start gathering in Moty''s palm and shaping into the celestial crossfire, the colossal flame crossbow.


    The Everdark realm trembling under Moty''s celestial crossfire, it is brighter than Evan''s golden flames powerful than Duke''s Everdark realm. Under their shocked gaze, she pulls the string and a flaming arrow forms.


    "Duke! Lift the Everdark realm!!!" Evan shouts loudly and panicky to Duke.


    Without any hesitation, Duke immediately lifts the realm, and the darkness vanishes but another darkness replaces it. It was nighttime now, the eye rune of night hung high in the sky, gazing silently at the world.


    In addition to darkness, there was also firelight, the firelight of the white ruined palace. Moty saw that the protective shield of the palace had been broken, the nobility''s force had entered, and now even the spiders who had not reached the first stage were fighting.


    Moty''s eyes fill with tears. The celestial crossfire in her grasp trembled, ready to be unleashed at any moment. However, the white ruined palace and spiders would definitely be wiped out in an instant.


    The colossal flaming crossbow shines in everybody''s eyes but can''t illuminate the sky. white ruined palace is nearly fallen and can''t be saved by only Moty.


    "Finty... I hope you''re here..." Moty cries and suddenly spits on blue blood.


    It was the repercussions of overdrawing life. The celestial crossfire immediately dissipates, and Moty loses her power and falls from the sky.


    "I''m sorry... Finty... Saze..." Moty whispers before she faints.


    After that, she hits the ground heavily. As Moty falls, the spiders roar, while the nobles continue to advance with high morale.


    "D-Did she die...?" Duke asks Evan in the air.


    "Probably not." The one who replies Duke is not Evan, but a cold, female voice.


    "Who are you?!" Duke turns his head.


    Duke''s mind rings with a loud alarm bell. His instincts scream that the owner''s voice is dangerously lethal. His heart races, his body trembles, and cold sweat beads on his forehead.


    Once he turns his head, he sees a beautiful female it''s almost surreal. gradient blue hair, exquisite face, and azure eyes with rimmed eyeglasses. She dresses with a dark blue long dress, dark blue high heels, and an azure jewel necklace.


    "Greetings, this is our first and last meeting, my name is Finty Amon, you?" Finty says lightly.


    "D-Duke Astor... Where is... Evan?" Duke replies obediently and asks.


    "Evan? Do you mean the one who uses soul arcane?" Finty asks rhetorically.


    "Yes..." Duke gulps.


    "Oh, I just send him to hell, and don''t worry. You will go there and meet him soon." Finty says calmly, announcing his death shortly.


    With that, Finty stretches out an arm and grabs his head. The next moment, under her cold gaze, Duke is torn into pieces of flesh, making a blood rain pour into the barren land. Duke doesn''t even get a chance to scream when he dies.


    After that, Finty glances around, seeing the white ruined palace that has fallen, Moty''s defeat, and the trees disappearing. The more she sees the more deeper her frown becomes.


    Finty lets out a deep sigh as the overwhelming aura of the fifth stage erupts around them. It engulfs everyone present, pressing down like an immense mountain, heavy and unyielding.


    Finty walks down from the sky, each step resonating through the heavens and the forest below. With every stride, she moves like a queen, commanding attention and grace.


    As she steps off the floor and onto the grounds of the white ruined palace, all the nobility forces present kneel in awe, gasping in disbelief. Not one dares to raise their head. Even those among them who are poisoned and gravely injured understand the peril, they know that to move would surely invite their demise.


    "How dare you block my way?" Finty asks coldly to a man who kneels in front of her.


    Just when the man is going to do something, Finty stomps his head heavily. The head of the man explodes like a watermelon, blood gushing everywhere but doesn''t go to Finty. Finty kicks the man''s lifeless body aside.


    "ugh... hrrk..." A woman vomits as the blood stains on her and a bloody eyeball rolls to her knee.


    The sound of vomit makes Finty glance over. The woman raises her head, and their eyes meet for a brief moment. Just as she is about to lower her gaze, her body explodes, and her organs fly in all directions.


    "You guys are worthless, die." Finty says calmly.


    Everyone''s bodies swell and then explode, showering the area with blood, but the blood doesn''t reach Finty.


    "Lloyd, put Moty here and go find Saze." Finty closes her eyes and takes a deep breath then commands Lloyd behind her.


    "Yes, mistress." Lloyd bows puts down Moty on the floor and flashes away.


    She watches Moty''s body and lets out a heavy sigh. She knows that she must have messed something up this time, otherwise, the nobles wouldn''t have discovered this place. But she can''t bring herself to scold her when she looks so exhausted.
