Gone to Heaven Already, Haha~

Su's ability was sufficient to probe a person's consciousness, and distinguishing between the host and the Herrscher consciousness was not difficult.

But when facing Lee, this power was somewhat inadequate, especially now that she had merged with Elysia's Herrscher Core, and her strength had advanced by leaps and bounds.

For the current Lee, deceiving Su's probe was just a matter of thought. Therefore, in Su's eyes now, Lee was undoubtedly the Thirteenth Herrscher who had seized the body of his senior, Lee!

".....Before the battle begins, can I ask you one last question, Herrscher?"

Eden, who always had a gentle smile, now had a rare hint of seriousness and anger in her expression. "Elysia's disappearance, is it also related to you?"

"Elysia?"

A smile of extreme sarcasm appeared on Lee's lips. She stretched out her hand and slowly opened it. In her palm appeared Elysia's hair ornament, which she almost never took off.

The next moment, this hair ornament was fiercely crushed into powder by her, and then scattered contemptuously.

"Haha, gone to heaven already~"

"....."

Eden was a person with a very good personality, and she almost never got angry. This was a recognized fact in the entire Fire Moth.

But having a good personality and upbringing didn't mean that Eden was really a person who would never get angry, no matter what. It was just that ordinary small matters were not worth a glance to her.

But now, two of her best friends, one had her body occupied and became a container for the Herrscher, and the other was killed by the Herrscher who occupied her friend's body.....

How could Eden not be angry?

How could she not be angry!?

[Energy +600000]

Good, taunting face-to-face was indeed a meaningful thing!

Looking at Eden, whose face was rarely gloomy, the smile on Lee's face became even brighter.

From the beginning, Eden was definitely someone she would throw into the core. After all, she always said things like, "I'm a remnant of the old era, there's no ship in the new world to carry me." Even if The Great Hibernation reserved a spot for her, Eden wouldn't use it.

In that case, she would just kill her and stuff her into the core, and then release her in the next era – after all, she was already in the new world, she wouldn't commit suicide on the spot, right?

The trio of Su, Eden, and Kosma was a very good conventional combat configuration. Su was responsible for mental protection and attacks, Kosma was responsible for frontal blocking and combat, and Eden used the Star of Eden to provide interference and long-range support.

But unfortunately, the enemy they were facing now was definitely not a conventional opponent!

"Seven Thunders of Retribution. Zero Rated Power – Heaven's Judgment."

Before even the flow of time could be perceived, the surging purple lightning had already appeared in front of Su, who was preparing to transform into the MANTIS FORM.

Three people were indeed a bit tricky, but as long as she took out Su, who was responsible for mental protection, the remaining Kosma and Eden were no different from lambs waiting to be slaughtered in front of Lee.

The best way to deal with such a mage-type opponent was of course to instantly kill them at the beginning!

The rated power of the Seven Thunders of Retribution put a great burden on the body. Therefore, Lee could no longer use it after her body became weak – but now that Lee had the blessing of Elysia's core, her body strength was no less than her former self, so this long-dormant ultimate skill could be used easily.

She used the Seven Thunders of Retribution tailored for the former Lee, the Zero Rated Power that was so fast that it was almost close to the time level!

Under this unexpected attack, the outcome was obvious. Eden and Kosma didn't even have time to react to what had happened before Su's body, which they were protecting behind them, was torn to pieces.

And this was not even the end. In this instant, the two felt a bone-chilling coldness appearing from behind them—

Bang!!

Blocking the shell that was originally going to penetrate her head, Lee calmly put down her sword and looked at the figure standing not far away who had launched the attack. The fact that Eden and Kosma, who had fled in a panic, had escaped with their lives didn't seem important to her.

"Vv....."

"Don't call me that, Herrscher!!!"

Vill-V gritted her teeth and clenched the newly developed anti-Herrscher weapon in her hand. The gaze she looked at Lee with was mixed with anger, despair, and chagrin.

"I knew something would go wrong..... I should have known! Every time I want to help her, something always goes wrong in the end! I, I—"

"Vv, I think—"

"I told you to shut up, damn Herrscher!!!"

Overwhelming rockets attacked Lee. Obviously, there was no room for reconciliation or communication between Vill-V and Lee – or rather, the Herrscher occupying Lee's body.

Moving gracefully out of the bombed area, without even a speck of dust on her clothes, Lee looked at the small green figure standing in the other direction with a pitiful expression.

"Doctor, they're all bullying me, won't you help me?"

"....."

Mobius didn't say a word in the end. She just widened her eyes, stared at Lee with an indescribable hatred, and then entered MANTIS FORM mode without a word. And the target of the attack – obviously couldn't be Vill-V and the others.

Very good, she got a lot of energy from all four of them, and with their current mental fluctuations, collecting their consciousness was not a problem.

Lee looked at her former companions attacking her from different directions without panic – if a larger number of people could defeat a strong enemy, then the Herrscher of Finality wouldn't be so terrifying.

"[Stop]."

Lee said calmly.

And the next moment, whether it was Mobius's creations or Vill-V, who was trying to control the new weapon, they all froze in place at the same time, and Kosma and Eden, who had transformed into the MANTIS FORM, couldn't escape either.

"After finishing you off, the rest won't be a problem either." Lee thought, and at the same time, the Seven Thunders of Retribution in her hand casually slashed across Eden's neck, as easily as if she wasn't killing someone.

"Only Kevin is a bit troublesome....."

Mobius just watched Lee harvest the lives of her former companions with her weapon. The distance between the two was less than two meters, but Mobius felt that Lee was so far away from her.

It wasn't because she couldn't move, which caused the distance, but another kind of..... [feeling] that she couldn't measure with science.

But, when did it become like this?

It's strange, I remember a long time ago when Lee and I were still in the laboratory, I never had this feeling.

When did all this start to change?

Looking at Lee, who had become a Herrscher, Mobius's heart was filled with complex emotions that even she herself couldn't understand.

Lee had taken on too many things. If she was really crushed by these things and became a Herrscher..... then at least she should be able to relax, right?

.....But why does this Herrscher still look so sad?
