Witch, Fireball and the Evil God of Steam-Chapter 881 - 176: The Sunlight Is So Dazzling_2

After all, compared to their true enemies, if you really dig into it, at most it's just her private life being indecent.

Thinking of this, Sera nostalgically licked her slightly dry lips.

Last night, due to a series of unexpected events, she had no choice but to crawl out of a recently warmed bed.

The Royal Family had once made many promises to her, and she once truly believed she could spend every day in the Imperial Capital as she pleased, but now it seemed like it was all just a dream.

Success or failure determined, it was time to slip away quietly.

As Ilya's friend, Sera offered one last suggestion, "In the north of the empire, there's a small country called Ashotoska. Although it's near desert areas and has an arid climate, it should be a good place to go into hiding. Given the current trend, the chaos in the Imperial Capital should last a few more days. Now is the best time to leave this city."

Sera paused, "With your skills, once you reach Ashotoska, it shouldn't be difficult to open a divination shop or teach at a Mage academy."

"Go into hiding? Why hide? I am the Holy Mage Ilya of the empire!"

Ilya tensed herself like a bristling cat, and her eyes instantly turned hostile towards Sera.

She could imagine the life Sera described.

In a town with extremely poor conditions, with a name unknown to anyone, staying every day in those unbearably shabby mud houses, having to smile at the most despicable civilians...

She clenched her fists.

"That's all I'll say."

Sera did not continue to persuade her, she had long anticipated Ilya's reaction, feeling that if circumstances allowed, Ilya should look in the mirror, or maybe that could help her friend accept reality, "Please don't disturb me; a large-scale resurrection is a very precise magic, and I have to keep striving for future life."

Sera prepared all the items needed for the ritual, then found a shady spot to sit down and began Meditation.

Before casting magic, she needed to adjust her Magic Power to its optimal state.

"You will regret this!"

Ilya stormed off towards the exit of the residence.

Once she supports the Second Prince to ascend the throne and becomes the supreme ruler of the Silver Radiance Empire, she must personally visit Ashotoska to thoroughly appreciate Sera's downcast life in some desert town!

Before that, she still had a lot to do.

First, it's the Duke of Falaret; there are three reorganized Firearms Team in his station—

Ilya methodically listed the upcoming plans in her mind until the sharp pain from her chest interrupted her thoughts and brought her to a halt.

She slowly looked down. In her view was an arrow with familiar griffin feathers at its tail.

It's Zophie.

Ilya opened her mouth but couldn't say anything.

On the street ahead, there were people coming and going, but she couldn't see Zophie, this arrow was so discreet that the pedestrians had no idea she had been hit.

She slowly raised a hand to cover her chest, but it was all futile.

She couldn't stop the wound, the deadly toxin on the arrow was rapidly spreading in her body.

Sera was upstairs.

She was preparing a Resurrection Technique that could cover the entire Imperial Capital, then—!

The next moment, Ilya's pupils contracted.

She noticed the black-gray patterns gradually spreading on the arrow shaft. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Sera had said, there were also people in this world who couldn't be resurrected by the Resurrection Technique, once the soul shattered, even the strongest Priest would be powerless.

Zophie had used the rare materials they acquired along the way on this arrow, Ilya remembered this soul-crushing arrow, because it was prepared for the Demon King before the "Final Battle" came.

Sera!

She opened her mouth trying to call Sera's name.

Save me, Sera!

Yet all words got stuck in her throat.

Ilya's vision began to shift, and then she heard a "thud" until she fell to the ground, street pedestrians noticed her anomaly.

She heard cries of panic from the pedestrians, more people gathered around.

But the noise on the street was fading away, she lay flat in front of the dwelling door, staring blankly at the sky.

The silver sun was gone, replaced by the azure sky, and... the sun that seemed familiar enough to be seen every day.

Sunlight,

So dazzling.

..................

At the same time, two figures descended from the sky before the Imperial Capital prison.

Without the support of the Other Shore, the exhausted Solan immediately kneeled on one knee.

He was still somewhat dazed.

He simultaneously refused the two voices, what he wanted was a world not manipulated by any gods, no prophecy, nor guided by destiny.

This desire seemed to have been realized.

At that time, he was in the air fortress, closer to it than anyone else in the Imperial Capital, witnessing the sun collapse, the encodings like a snowstorm engulfing him.

Solan did not know whether his answer was correct, the city full of scars ahead made him realize there was much to be done next, they might not have much time to rest, or else the Royal Family remnants would regain power, and their lives would see no change.

And after refusing the new god's proposition, everything in the future must be realized by their own hands.

Maybe they will succeed, maybe they will fail.
