The Princess And The Lord

The sudden change suddenly came from the direction of Lazarus as the air became heavier, the ground not only trembled but appeared long huge fissures that spread out in various directions across the ground which then created a huge fissure that swallowed up not only the humans but also Lazarus. monsters too.

Thankfully Ming Yue Yin, Yuan Shao, and the others managed to escape from the gap that was about to swallow them up.

"I will kill you…After I am done with this world, I will destroy your old world, and this time I make sure no Lucient heir is left in that world or any world!" Lazarus' voice was filled with malice

All of a sudden the scales on Lazarus's body turned into black steel and a longhorn grew right between his eyes as if he was turning into a different creature, more ruthless…stronger.

Lazarus was fumed with rage for he would never admit defeat not after he come this far. Anger consumed all reason, maybe because he didn't have any, in fact, he had nothing left but despair since Arthea was gone, and that scared Lazarus the most knowing nothing left for him anymore therefore he had to blame Lory, he must hate Zhao Li Xin as well as Lucient, the god and the whole world cause only for that he still has a purposed in his life even though his purposed is utter destruction.

Lory watches Lazarus's transformation she can't help to complain "So…he levels up, oh that's fair!"

[Got scared princess?] Girsha teased.

"Don't worry Lory, Demon, monster, or whatever at the end they all end the same way…" Zhao Li Xin speaks casually while swinging his sword to check its balance even though it's unnecessary.

"Oh, what is that?" Lory asks curiously.

Zhao Li Xin throws an evil smile "They all kneel"

"Well said~" Lory laughs then his staff transforms into a white bow "Shall we?"

"We shall!"

Both Zhao Li Xin and Lory jumped toward Lazarus at the same time from afar like red and purple comets moving together at high speed. Meanwhile, Lazarus rammed into them while baring his long fangs causing Lory and Zhao Li Xin to flew the opposite direction.

Zhao Li Xin swung his sword along Lazarus' body creating sparks between the friction of the sword and Lazarus' scales, unfortunately, Lazarus's body is not easy to hurt as before as if the snake wearing armor.

Lory also released hundreds of ice arrows at one time alas, it did not affect Lazarus other irked him.

[I don't think it worked Lory!] Grisha said.

[Oh, you think?!] Lory replied sarcastically.

Suddenly a swing of Girsha Tails which had also turned into a long wide-blade swing at her, Luckly Lory managed to do a flip in the air before the blade's tail cut her in half.

Enraged to see Lory nearly killed, Zhao Li Xin summons an immortal flame to burn Lazarus though it doesn't do much to the demon but enough to distract him from Lory.

[This is not right, The crimson lightning should be able to kill Lazarus right?] Lory felt lost seeing Zhao Li Xin's attack seem meaningless.

[I think it's caused by his iron scales, we should find out how to destroy them before] Girsha said.

[But how do you do it...?] while she pondered out of nowhere came a small boy's voice inside her head. f𝓇𝘦e𝑤𝘦𝚋𝒏૦ѵℯ𝒍.c𝐨𝒎

'Lucient Light'

"Huh? Who's that?" Lory swept her eyes around her and found no one.

[What's wrong girl?] Girsha is confused by Lory's strange behavior.

[No, I think someone...] before she finishes her words the voice comes again and his voice is even clearer than before.

'Lazarus armor is made of dark miasma and only the power of Light can absolve it power and no light shines brighter than Lucient's light'

"Who are you..." Lory covered her ears to make sure the sound was coming from her head but strangely Girsha couldn't hear it as if they were on different frequencies.

'You don't have much time princess, if you don't stop Lazarus soon this world will be crumbled down with him'

Lory realized that the cracks in the ground continued to spread not only around Yi Shan Mountain and the Green Emphrean Forest but almost reached the capital and if that happened it was not impossible that the entire continent might be destroyed.

"What should I do?" lory felt a little panicky.

[Lory who are you talking to?] Girsha grows confused.

But Lory didn't have time to answer Girsha's question.

'Dark miasma made from the souls of dead humans harboring redness, hatred, sorrow, and regret, they are impure souls that were absorbed by Lazarus and he turned them into his power but your light will show all those lost souls the right path to returned.'

"Nice, but that doesn't answer my question, you...mysterious voice!" Lory groaned in frustration.

'Use the same method when dealing with the lesser demon only this time use the trinity staff as a beacon....let the light illuminate the world'

Lory took a deep breath, then the trinity staff returned to its original shape, becoming a silvery staff with a simple design carved with bluebell vines and a small crystal ball protected by a wing at the top of the staff.

[Lory what are you planning?] Girsha was a bit concerned about what she was about to do judging what her usual action used to be.

[Don't worry, I'm just going to help my husband, even though I'm still not sure how...] Lory took a deep breath and then shot towards Lazarus but maintain her distance from the fight between Lazarus and Zhao Li Xin.

Lory only just realized how thick the black miasma was around them, in the past, it never crossed her mind what the black miasma actually was because she used to think of it as a manifestation of black magic that needed to be removed as soon as possible and nothing more besides no one raised the question either.

No wonder nothing can get rid of black miasma other than the power of light so this is the reason, Lory then closes her eyes and she started concentrating on gathering the mana in her body not long after a warm feeling enveloped her like a warm blanket then the soft purple light emitted from her whole body and it transferred to the trinity staff she holds and the light keeps moving upwards until it sucked by the crystal ball on top of the staff hence what happened next was something even Lory had never seen before. 𝑓𝔯𝑒e𝘸e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝚕.c૦𝙢

The wing that seemed to protect the crystal slowly spread out the next thing happened a bright white light shone through it and illuminated the whole sky and pierce through the thick miasma causing the smoke scatters.

Strangely, Lory heard a muffled sound coming from every direction, it was almost like weeping.

[Lory, what are you doing?] Girsha was dumbfounded but the next thing happened to shock the old bird even more. It was then from the scattered black smoke one by one forming into a human silhouette and from the shape of the silhouette it's not just a man but also a woman, young and old they gather almost like they are in a daze.

Lory's eyes widened she hold her breath as he stare at all those spirits in horror and pity.

The spirits looked at each other they seemed confused until they saw the light come from Lory's staff they instantly became relieved almost rejoicing even though Lory couldn't see all of the spirit's faces clearly but she could feel it.

Guided by the light the spirits turned into little speck lights they all flew into the light before disappearing one by one.

In the light, a familiar-looking boy appeared who watched the spirits disappear with a gaze filled with deep sorrow, Lory recognized the boy as the boy she met in Oblivion who was also named Zian.

Zian then turned his gaze to Lory then pointed at Lazarus who was clearly infuriated at what Lory had done.

"You dare to take my ssslave!" a fiery exclamation of wrath burst from Lazarus's entire being.

"Yeah, guess what? I'll take some more!" Lory raised her wand and light began to shine on Lazarus.

Lazarus enrages and then prepares to attack Lory but all of a sudden the snake's movement is blocked by a chain of lightning from Zhao Li Xin.

"Hey, all eyes on me!" Zhao Li Xin shouted.
