  How could this be? Has my mission already been completed?

  As Saintess Kelly’s angel form was slowly fading, her wings of light were retracting bit by bit. Finally, they broke down into tiny pieces of feathers, then completely faded away.

  As for Verthandi, her realm of God had been deactivated as well, and she was tightly holding the Sword of the King that had just pierced through Saintess Kelly’s chest. As Saintess Kelly looked towards Verthandi, she had a sad smile on her beautiful face. She then immediately turned pale, and blood was leaking out from the corner of her mouth.

  “Maybe, you are the one who is more beloved by God!” Saintess Kelly then suddenly smiled a smile that was full of happiness, then looked up into the sky and wondered aloud, “Lord Faross, am I coming back to your kingdom now?”


  This representative of the gods, who had single-handedly raised the Church of the Light to its peak, then slowly closed her eyes drew her last breath. The mask of Faross was separated from her body and was dropping down from the sky along with her.

  At this moment, all of the conflicts on earth suddenly stopped, as everyone was stunned by this scene in the sky. No one could believe that this legend on earth, the purest of all humans, had just fallen in this battle.

  The entire human force had just lost their will to continue the battle. In this battlefield that was covered with flesh and blood, everyone was badly injured. However, no one even cared about their own well-beings anymore. They just looked blankly into the sky and felt as if their faith had been broken.

  The soldiers in the center of the battlefield all felt like they had lost all their strength, lowering their long swords and shields. It was as if their faiths had been destroyed, and they all fell on their knees and cried out in agony and regret……

  “The Saintess …… She’s dead?”


  “How could this be? I can’t believe this!”


  “No way!”


  “Why am I here, then? What was the purpose of this slaughter and war?”


  While this was happening, dozens of miles away from the battlefield, Lu Zhiyu was taking a nap in a horse-drawn carriage, as it was already nighttime in the eastern part of the world. An unsettling feeling suddenly came across his mind, which caused him to wake him up in a cold sweat.

  Lu Zhiyu quickly stormed out of the carriage and looked towards the west, his face full of denial. He suddenly felt like he was completely surrounded by nothing but loneliness.

  Underneath the city of Virginia, the Sumerian Plain seemed dark and depressing. Add to that the doomsday-like battlefield, and it looked like a scene straight out of a mythical legend.

  At the exact moment that Saintess Kelly’s body was dropping down from the sky, along with the mask of Faross, the clouds suddenly cleared, leaving only a holy light that was shining down on Saintess Kelly’s body. Suddenly, as everyone lifted their heads up and looked at the sky, a ginormous projection of a Divine Kingdom appeared on the top of the clouds.

  The clouds separated and covered that entire edgeless kingdom. This blinding light, brightened up not only the kingdom, but the whole world!

  Bong!

  The sound of the bell from the kingdom above spread across whole world. Countless people rushed outside of their houses, forming a sea of people in the street, all of them looking up at the projection of the kingdom in the sky. The crisp bell continued to ring, as if it was announcing something big or welcoming someone special!

  “The Divine Kingdom!”


  “The kingdom of the gods is arriving upon the earth!”


  “Oh Lord, so is this your kingdom?”


  Whether it was believer from the Church of Light or the Faith of the Sun, they all kneeled and were singing and praying together. Underneath the city of Virginia, everyone had dropped their weapons and gotten down on the ground at the same time, while in the city, everyone walked out of their houses, taking to the streets and praising the gods.

  Amid the ringing of the bell, the gate of the Divine Kingdom was slowly opening. It was so huge, only a very small portion of its bottom half could be seen. As it was now held within that ray of holy light, Saintess Kelly’s body began to become radiant once more.

  Her scars had slowly disappeared, and as her body slowly faded, a holy spirit walked out of it. The spirit was wearing a pure white robe.

  Her clever eyes opened once again and were looking at the stairs that led to the gate. The staircase then miraculously extended, slowly stretching down from within the kingdom above to appear directly before her feet.

  Meanwhile, the mask of Faross and the Sword of the King had also dissolved into particles of light and had slowly been absorbed into the gate of the Divine Kingdom.

  While Saintess Kelly was stepping up the staircase to the Divine Kingdom, her beautiful and sacred face beamed with a smile that was full of happiness. As she was walking up towards the sky, with every step she took, the staircase shortened.

  Within the Divine Kingdom, the angels were singing and rushing out, eager to greet her with laughter and joy. She slowly walked up above the clouds, then finally reached the Divine Kingdom.

  Everyone opened their eyes wide and craned their necks, trying to see what the inside of the Divine Kingdom looked like, but no matter how hard they tried, all they could see was Saintess Kelly being welcomed by thousands of angels at the entrance.

  The moment Saintess Kelly entered Divine Kingdom, the gate that had filled up the entire sky slowly closed and completely vanished, along with the rest of the world below……

  In the spring of the 61st year of the San calendar, a crusade took place in the Sumerian Plain. After Saintess Kelly fell in the battlefield, the Divine Kingdom arrived to welcome her ascension into eternal life and joy.

  The gods were angered by the war that had been triggered by the mortals. Therefore, they took the Sword of the King and the mask of Faross back from the ungrateful beings.

  As for the army of the Holy Seville Empire and the alliance of the humans, as both sides had suffered extreme losses, they had signed a peace treaty between the humans and the orcs under the city of Virginia’s authority. Soon after that, the Holy Seville Empire’s forces had retreated from the Crete Empire, and the remaining forces followed lion king Will Eranbell to return to the Northland once again.

  In the same year, the Crete Empire had dissolved, as the Church of Light had lost its ability to control the empire and the central province was once again separated. The establishment of small nations and the uprising of the royal families had made the province fall into chaos.

  Meanwhile, a large number of orc slaves and orc tribes had started entering the central province, making this province a bit of a special region.
