Galliard’s eyes widened.

“She would? I don’t think…..”

“No. You still don’t know. This is a god’s society. They’re people who could do that and more. They won’t share the rewards.”

Brahm firmly shook his head.

He felt like he could see Hemera and Aether’s futures already. He could already tell from how they were being wary of each other.

Also, Hemera seemed to have the upper hand with their forces. It seemed like she would backstab Aether the moment she could. And although he didn’t know what it was, Aether had also prepared for when that happened.

That was how a god’s society was. Olympus, Asgard, Deva….. There were thousands of temples that all had different names, but in the end, they were all the same.

This was probably the fundamentals of being a god. Position, rank, holiness, and legends. Only these things would prove them on the 98th floor.

And the Elohim, who were split from the gods, were no different. They were filled with people who would backstab each other if needed. The Devil Army, where the members were ready to die for each other, might be better.

Galliard shut his mouth looking at his friend. He knew about his friend’s pain more than anymore.

Brahm crossed his arms and continued with what he was saying.

“The funny thing though, is that although they seem messed up, they’ll fight each other after they get what they need. You, take care of Sesha well.”

“Sure.”

Galliard nodded his head and left to put Sesha in a safe place. What they wanted was Sesha. He was going to place her in a place that wasn’t easily noticeable if possible.

After Brahm and Galliard confirmed that Sesha’s presence was gone, they slowly opened the Book of Mercury.

Today, those bastards would be used as sacrifices to treat Sesha’s illness. It was the last thing he could do for her mother, Ananta.

And also, it was a repentance for that guy who wasn’t here anymore.

Whoosh!

The Book of Mercury let out its shine.

Brahm’s consciousness slowly settled down, and the Imaginary World inside the barrier started to rotate.

Creak, creak—

With the sound of a joint that hadn’t been greased properly.

“Everyone stay on guard.”

At Aether’s orders, Hemera and the others’ faces all hardened.

They could all feel it too, that the air of the forest had suddenly changed. It meant that the magic of the Illusionary World had been activated.

It meant that this was the official beginning.

They were prepared for this, since they had chosen to enter Brahm’s territory.

But thinking of something and actually experiencing was different.

The air was heavy, like it would squeeze your lungs, and the curse that was poking their brains completely drained their magic power.

And in front of them, the trees and the black sky, and even the dark god made their sense of direction faint.

It was completely different from when Yeon-woo came. . It was a large scale magic circle Brahm had prepared to deal with intruders.

“This is so annoying here.”

Hemera frowned and complained like she was unaffected, but her eyes were flashing sharply.

She continued to call for the light spirits, will-o’-the-wisps, but every time she did, the spirit melted in the fog.

Will-o’-the-wisps didn’t just light the dark. They were also effective in resisting and blocking attacks.

But the fact that they were disappearing so easily meant one thing.

‘He’s revealing his holiness.’

If the Illusionary World that the god Brahma made was this strong, everyone here needed to be careful.

Then.

“Havelle? Where did this kid go? Havelle?”

One player suddenly stopped and looked around in confusion.

Aether and Hemera paused to look back.

“What’s going on?”

“I, It’s, I haven’t seen Havelle for some time!”

“What?”

While Hemera furrowed her eyebrows, other players began to shout.

“Num Pan also suddenly disappeared. He was just next to me earlier…..!”

“Same with Ran!”

The sudden disappearance of their subordinates.

Hemera ordered them to move in teams of 3.

However.

“W, What’s this?”

A player named Noose suddenly pulled his sword out in fear. Everyone turned to look at him. Noose shouted with a pale face.

“Tanhan! Tanhan was suddenly snatched away by something!”

“Shit. Everyone gather together! Don’t fall apart!”

The fog wasn’t just swallowing the will-o’-the-wisps. It was also swallowing players.

Feeling danger, they all followed Aether’s orders to gather as one. They prepared for attacks that could strike out any second.

But even if they strengthened their defenses, their anxiety was multiplied. Even like this, their comrades disappeared one by one.

Thinking that this wouldn’t do, Hemera looked back at her subordinates. She was planning on hiding it until they met Brahm, but she felt like she would be in danger if she didn’t use it now.

And from earlier, she had felt the strength steadily leaving her body. Like water was dripping on from a broken pot.

Something was strange.

‘There’s something in this fog, no, this ground. Something’s eating my holiness…..!”

Hemera thought that Brahm was absorbing their holiness to fill his lack. If that wasn’t it, something similar to it was definitely happening.

If this went on, everyone would be dried up of their power to death.

At Hemera’s gaze, her subordinates nodded their heads and began to recite a spell.

As they did, Hemera’s body began to shine. Although it had been a while since the Protogenoi species were kicked out from society, they still had a powerful holiness.

So families in the Protogenoi species tried to gather as many apostles as they could to strengthen their holiness.

The apostles were servants bound to their family, and they were ready to give their life for their masters at any moment.

“Shit…..”

Aether had lost most of those servants in the last battle, so he looked at Hemera enviously. As he did, he felt shivers down his back. Hemera’s holiness seemed to have gotten stronger than he knew.

Meanwhile, Hemera got everything ready, and spread her hand out. Her holiness, ‘Day’, was activated, and it lit up their surroundings.

“White Light.”

The fog around them began to fade away. As the fog disappeared like it was erased by an eraser, the bright forest was revealed.

“It wor…..!”

Hemera and her subordinates cheer with tired faces. But their faces became stiff again.

Where the fog was gone, there were countless will-o’-the-wisps lit up.

As if all the Demonic species on the 23rd stage had been led here, the high Demonic species that were sparkling purple and the tens of Ceratopsian Dinosaurs were licking their lips.
