Just as Madison shouted out, Shiro could see all of the magic circles light up with a brilliant flare.

  Narrowing her eyes, she could see a portal of sorts opening in the sky as she immediately stepped towards the weapon.

  Pressing her hands against the surface, her aura flared as all of the compartments started to hum.

  Immediately noticing a change in aura, Hemera glanced towards Shiro who had divine energy coursing through her body and into the weapon.

  "Is it finally time to fire the weapon?" Hemera muttered while floating next to Nan Tian.

  She was currently helping him direct all of the power from the sun towards the weapon.

  "Yup. With the relic appearing, we’ll need to get rid of it as soon as possible." Nan Tian smiled.

  *CLACK TSSSSS!!!!

  Looking at each of the parts that started to shift, Hemera noticed the dungeons being inserted into the main body of the weapon like cartridges.

  The moment each was inserted, a set of runes would light up as coils protruded out of the weapon, releasing steam as heat was building up inside the weapon. Even with her mastery over ice, Shiro was struggling to cool down this weapon as energy surged through the body.

  Out of the hundreds of dungeon cartridges that she had created, there was a single one that’s different from the rest. A black and red cartridge that had circuit patterns etched into the surface. That cartridge held a concentrated mass of Error that would only be inserted at the final step. Much like how Error upgraded her sword when he swallowed it, she was going to do the same with the weapon.

  As the dungeon batteries were inserted into the weapon, tier 8 magic circles started to flicker around the weapon as the space around them started to distort.

  Even with all the help she was getting in maintaining her body, she could still feel her muscles tearing apart from the energy coursing through her.

  Taking a deep breath, she gritted her teeth and powered on.

  Images of what she had seen from her future self appeared as she didn’t want to see an ending like that.

  It didn’t matter how much she pushed herself right now, she refused to see the dead corpses of all her friends.

  ###

  Looking at everything that’s happening with a frown, Attie could sense the connection between him and Shiro weaken as the mana realm started to break apart. The walls started to crack as water filled the gaps in an attempt to fix everything.

  He could see Nimue sitting in the middle with her brows creased up as her figure started to break apart. Her humanoid shape wavered as it was on the verge of being turned back to liquid.

  Iziuel was also trying her best to help but there was only so much her healing could provide.

  Looking down on his hands, Attie looked back at the two that are trying their best right now and took a deep breath.

  Clenching his fists, fire erupted out of his body. Burning brightly, the fire reached towards the ceiling of the mana realm as Attie bit his finger.

  As the first droplet of blood appeared, it was immediately disintegrated but he didn’t hesitate to make the wound bigger. From one drop to a constant stream, Attie’s face paled as patterns emerged on his body.

  His flames grew in size as Iziuel forced her eyes open after sensing a change in her surroundings. Seeing that Attie was doing, Iziuel widened her eyes.

  "ATTIE! STOP IT!" Iziuel shouted out but Attie smiled.

  "Mommy needs help." Attie said as his flesh started to tear apart.

  The cracks that formed within Shiro’s mana realm started to repair itself as Attie’s flames helped Nimue’s water. As they were both divine spirits, merging the two wasn’t too difficult.

  Biting her lips, Iziuel sighed heavily as she rushed over to Attie.

  "If you’re going to burn life force, at least burn mine. Aunty Iziuel’s a nature spirit, my life force is the strongest out of everyone." Iziuel sighed as she placed her hand on Attie’s shoulder.

  A green aura exploded out from her body as the plants around them started to grow.

  Glancing up, Attie was surprised since he had wanted to do this since he was young and had life force to spare.

  With both Iziuel and Attie providing life force for Shiro, the burden on her mana realm decreased as some of the cracks started to heal. Unfortunately, it wasn’t enough as new wounds wereopening with each passing second.

  Hoping that things will turn out well, Attie closed his eyes and prayed.

  ###

  Sitting on a distant mountain, Syradil narrowed her eyes at the darkening skies. The menacing tier 8 magic circles spread far beyond what the eye could see and the world seemed to age before their eyes.

  With the surplus of energy, trees matured and withered in a blink of an eye and new saplings took their place.

  ’Is she still not making a move?’ Syradil thought to herself.

  Looking at the portal opening above the twin peaks, she was thinking of making a move herself.

  *KRSHKKK!!!!!

  Hearing the roaring of thunder, the clouds that hung above the twin peaks dispersed as day and night seemed to trade places. The brightness of the magic circles made everything around them seem dark as even Syradil had to shield her eyes for a moment.

  Sensing the shift in atmosphere, Syradil could feel goosebumps on her arms as she decided to wait no more.

  Standing up, she took a deep breath as mana gathered around her.

  Staring into the orb of light, she saw the faint silhouette of a crescent greatsword emerging from within.

  Recognising it to be the corrupted relic, she immediately prepared her spell but paused when she noticed a second spike of mana. Instead of mana, it seemed to resembled the relic.

  "Divine energy." Syradil muttered.

  Tilting her head back, she furrowed her brows when she couldn’t see anything but the tier 8 magic circle of the relic.

  Clicking her tongue, she closed her eyes for a moment before opening them again.

  Her eyes were now filled with a slight golden glow as the barriers seemed to fade from her sight.

  Widening her eyes, she saw the source of this energy.

  Stretching beyond the horizon even from that height, she could see the black silhouette of a giant cannon with neon energy channels flowing through its body. Countless runes blended together into a single colour.

  Hundreds upon hundreds of bright red coils filled the side of the weapon.

  Focusing a little harder, Syradil could see a merging of mana and divine energy gathering towards the centre of this weapon.

  Halting her breath, she couldn’t believe a weapon of this power could be created so soon. Even in her prime, there was little chance of her surviving unless she activated some of her one time use skills that she had received.

  Suddenly, motes of light lit up on the side of the weapon as tier 8 magic circles formed a barrel towards earth.

  Each of them seemed different but Syradil could recognise a few of them.

  ’Signs of a berserk skill? How do you even fit that onto a weapon?’ She thought to herself before danger overwhelmed her senses.

  Immediately slamming down her hand, she wanted to make a portal to escape but it was too late.

  A single flash of light filled her vision as she was able to see that it was condensed into a thin line no larger than her torso.

  Space distorted around the beam as swirls appeared in her vision. As if God had just used a mixing tool, she could see parts of the earth being stretched over head as it became the sky.

  The mountains became circles and the skies disappeared.

  Focusing on a single point within this area of thousands of meters, space collapsed as lightning rippled out, eviscerating everything in its path.

  *KRK!!!!!

  Within the line of energy, red circuits appeared as a giant maw made from these circuits exploded out, consuming the entire mountain range as every single spek of mana was absorbed.

  Feeling her body weaken, Syradil couldn’t help but kneel down on one knee as she realised something shocking. Whatever had just appeared just devoured every single source of mana within this region. The reason why ambient mana could even appear was due to an invisible source constantly supplying mana through a totem of sorts that existed in a different dimension.

  Even in the other gardens, she was never able to locate where the source was but she knew that reaching this dimension was difficult. However, the attack had just wiped it out without any problems.

  Quickly activating her eyes and peering into the different dimensions around this place such as the rift, she could see that the attack was multi dimensional. It didn’t matter where you were in terms of dimension, as long as you were in that area, the attack would still hit you.

  The attack only lasted for a short instant, but within that instant, the twin peaks were no longer visible as only a deep hole could be seen in its place.
