Time rewinds to about one minute ago.
Eugene was pressing hard, and his words had completely stripped Ais of her will to fight.
Building on this, he even raised his hand to summon ominous black lightning, which struck Ais!
The next second, Ais seemed to fall into immense pain, kneeling on the ground and letting out waves of piercing screams.
"That's a curse, isn't it!"
"The Sword Princess looks to be in trouble!"
The cries of Shakti and the others made Lefiya and the rest, who were already anxious, feel even more distressed.
Loki's expression also gradually cooled after hearing Eugene's merciless words one after another.
As a Goddess, she naturally knew about the Black Wind inside Ais.
But she was also one of the main proponents of how to deal with this power.
She is still young; she shouldn't have to bear so much.
Loki, like the others, held this belief.
After descending to the Lower World, she had no divine power and was merely a mortal with a broader perspective.
Therefore, she could not foresee what kind of unexpected turn of events would occur.
"No, I really can't watch anymore!"
The red-haired Goddess frowned: "Bullying my little Ais like this in front of me is really too much!"
She turned to look at Lefiya and the two other girls who were already eager to go, her voice calm:
"That fire-breathing man just used a curse; no matter what, he will be weakened."
"Now is the perfect time!"
"You three go up together and just drive him away!"
She waved for Shakti to come over, her target being the weapon Shakti carried: "It would be best to make him suffer a little too!"
"Ooh ooh!" The expressions of the three girls brightened at the same time.
Thus, they launched a combined attack on Eugene.
Compared to Ais, Tione and Tiona had greater strength and endurance, but weaker speed and skill.
Furthermore, due to their Amazonian bloodline, their skills could only be activated when they were near-death.
Therefore, although they were not easy opponents, Eugene running around could still break away from the situation.
He bombarded the two behind him with provocative talk while throwing out all sorts of strange and unusual items.
He even threw out Power's bra padding.
It was definitely not intentionally given to Tiona, ha!
Boom!!
The choking smoke from the high-grade smoke bomb temporarily halted the relentlessly pursuing Amazon sisters.
Just as Eugene let out a slight breath, the ethereal chanting from afar, and the rapidly converging magic power, caught his attention.
Lefiya glared, staring fixedly at Eugene as if in a protest.
Beneath her feet, the magic circle spun rapidly.
The supremely powerful "Barrage Fire Javelin" was ready!
Eugene looked at the resolute girl, scratched his head helplessly.
He exhaled a breath, and a wisp of flame leaped at his fingertip. He then shaped his hand like a gun and pointed it at Lefiya.
The elven girl's expression froze. She recalled Eugene's strike, which seemed weak but had effortlessly finished off Vito.
She bit her lip, falling into conflict, but the magical radiance gathering in her hand continued.
Neither of them would yield, and they confronted each other for several seconds.
"Silly girl..."
Finally, Eugene sighed deeply and lowered his hand.
Seeing this, Lefiya's suspended heart subconsciously relaxed.
She thought this guy would still show some regard for old feelings—no, that he still had some conscience.
Her persistence had finally won his submission.
But just as she smiled, feeling relieved.
Loki's roar interrupted the girl's illusion!
"Watch out!!"
The flame on Eugene's fingertip flashed!
His acting skills worked again. The moment his opponent relaxed, the flame bullet shot out automatically, without him needing to raise his hand!
A streak of crimson light flashed through the air!
Lefiya was greatly alarmed. Just as she was about to raise her hand, an explosion sounded beneath her feet!
"Waaah!"
Her body lost balance and she fell downwards.
Meanwhile, Eugene's body began to lean forward, preparing to charge.
"Stop that, you bastard!!!"
The furious Tione activated her skill, suddenly attacking Eugene from behind.
She threw the twin swords in her hand at Eugene while in mid-air, but only hit emptiness.
!?
The Flying Thunder God!
A teleportation rune was actually encased within that single wisp of flame!
Just as the two sisters were searching for Eugene's whereabouts.
He flashed and arrived next to Lefiya!
Snap!
Lefiya, who was prepared for the landing, felt her body lighten.
A pair of strong arms embraced her.
"You!"
Warm breath blew onto her face, causing her long eyelashes to tremble.
Eugene's face, being so close, made Lefiya's face flush.
But she quickly snapped back, struggling to get away from Eugene.
She was also formulating a loud, accusatory line in her mouth.
Eugene didn't indulge her; he gave her another smack on the lips, stunning the little girl.
Her eyes were full of stars, and her sanity instantly flew up to the ninth heaven.
It was at this moment that Eugene squeezed the back of her neck.
The precise amount of force made her instantly fall unconscious.
"You rotten scumbag! Let her go!"
The two sisters rushed forward in a furious frenzy, but failed to notice Eugene's action of shielding Lefiya inside his coat.
He raised his hand, and it was another smoke bomb!
Tiona and Tione saw this and quickly held their breath.
Although the smoke was choking, with their physiques, passing through the smoke screen would be no problem!
But this time, what greeted them was not smoke!
A white light flickered at Eugene's fingertip.
To throw people off, he wasn't planning to use Infinity in public.
Fortunately, he had previously established a persona of having "many strange and unusual tools."
He only needed to mislead others into thinking it was a super-powerful flashbang!
Consuming one-tenth of his stamina!
Infinity—Solar Flare!
Shhh!
"Wuaaaah!!"
Not only the charging Amazon sisters, but also the spectators who were watching with wide eyes, didn't expect Eugene to have this move!
It wasn't a smoke bomb, but a blinding flash!
A round of pure white, fierce light instantly enveloped the entire venue. Even the spectators had their eyes stung and felt dizzy for a moment.
Not to mention Tiona and Tione, who were completely defenseless!
They were completely lost in the flash, with a blank whiteness before their eyes.
The blinding flash would steal their sight for more than twenty seconds.
Most importantly, taking this blow would inevitably cause them to enter a state of stun.
Here it comes, here it comes!
Watch my move!
Eugene waved his large hand, his body moving, and in a brief few seconds, he completed his trick of sleight of hand.
"Damn you! I'll remember this!"
"I can't see anything!"
The light dissipated, and the arena was filled with noise.
Even with excellent hearing, they were inevitably affected in this environment.
Looking at the Amazon sisters who were temporarily unable to pursue him, Eugene put on a cold expression.
"Honestly, every single one of you, I've been too kind to you."
His teeth clenched, and the lingering trace of blood-red color in his eyes slowly faded.
"Ugh!"
On the other side, Ais, whose sanity was nearly broken from the erosion of nightmare and illusion, suddenly woke up.
She knelt on the ground, gasping for the hard-won air as if she had just escaped drowning.
Her face was completely drained of color.
Her thin dress was soaked with sweat, clinging to her body.
From a distance, she looked entirely like a frail little girl, without a hint of the "Sword Princess's" dignity.
"You disappoint me greatly."
Eugene's body was emitting a formidable killing intent, and his voice was utterly disappointed.
"You, what exactly..."
Ais struggled to raise her head and looked at the man engulfed in demonic flames.
The next second, her eyes widened.
It was Lefiya.
Eugene's five fingers were now tightly clasping the fair neck of the elven girl!
He and she were like a wolf fully displaying its ferocity and a white rabbit that had lost the strength to struggle.
Ais saw the killing intent in his eyes.
It was unmistakably genuine.
As he said, he had reached his limit of tolerance for Ais's weakness.
Even after saying what needed to be said and doing what needed to be done, he still failed to make her enter the "Black Wind" state.
"Since you are so resistant to fighting someone to the death, then, this shouldn't matter, right?"
His grip tightened; his powerful, claw-like fingers made Lefiya's expression agonized and her eyes tremble violently!
She cried out to Ais in a meaningless plea; her once sunny and lovely face was now full of terror.
"No, don't!"
Ais watched her friend fall into a dangerous predicament but could do nothing.
She couldn't even rescue Lefiya before.
This time, with her body and mind injured, she had absolutely no confidence!
"This much is enough to make you shrink back like this?"
Eugene wore a look of disbelief, and a firelight flickered in his other hand.
Under his control, Lefiya immediately let out a painful shriek!
"Stop! Stop it!"
"What does this have to do with her!"
Ais was completely lost.
She didn't understand why this man had been so carefree before, yet was so ruthless now.
"It has everything to do with her!"
"It has everything to do with everyone!"
Eugene roared in disappointment: "If you can't control that power, countless people will die in vain!"
"If they're going to die sooner or later, what's the difference!"
A fierce light flashed in his eyes, as if a resolute decision had been made.
"Fine."
"Since you cannot do it no matter what."
"Then this way, I can at least leave you with some motivation."
Eugene's tone suddenly became calm.
The last light in his eyes also dimmed.
And immediately after.
He let go of Lefiya.
Just as the elven girl regained her freedom, coughing violently, she still managed to force a smile toward the collapsed Ais.
"Ais-s—!"
Puchi.
Her final greeting became a word of farewell.
Ais's mind exploded with a roar.
Not just her.
Tiona and Tione.
Shakti and Ganesha Familia.
Even Loki.
No one expected the situation to reach this point. They only saw Eugene's hand, wreathed in fierce fire, easily pierce through Lefiya's abdomen.
Due to the high-temperature scorching, she didn't even shed a single drop of blood.
"...Hate."
Eugene's words fell.
Boom!!
A burst of expanding flame instantly engulfed the girl's entire body!
"Noooooooooooo—!!!!!!"
Ais's heartbreaking scream echoed throughout the entire venue!
And compared to her voice, the roar of the explosion was even more despairing!
Whoosh-la-la...
A rain of fire fell across the sky.
The elven girl, who was once soft-natured, easily discouraged, but always managed to stand up again and smile forward, was gone.
Along with the memory of her.
This falling fire made people inevitably think of her signature ability, the Fire Javelin.
But now, this flame was not the hope to reverse everything.
It was the true end.
"I won't give you another chance."
Beneath the fire rain.
Eugene's aura soared dramatically.
His voice was cold and sharp like the hum of a sword.
In the violently boiling air, an unimaginably vast amount of magic power was converging inwards.
"From now on, I will take over this place."
"All of you, remember this."
"Today, the reason people will die is all because of the Sword Princess, Ais Wallenstein,"
"Her weakness, and incompetence."
