"O-okay, don't, don't touch me randomly! Pervert!"
Looking at Goki's familiar, slightly concerned face beneath his black tricorn hat, Platinum's eyes widened slightly, momentarily stunned.
But then, she immediately and mercilessly slapped Goki's hand away, turned around, her horse ears on top of her head flicking rapidly, the skin behind her ears faintly flushed.
[A bit, a bit handsome, ah, damn it, has my aesthetic been twisted?!]
For some reason, at that very moment, the little killer suddenly felt that Goki seemed much more pleasing to the eye?
"Ha, what the hell is this thing... Don't the Kazimierz people know there's such a terrifying thing under their feet?!"
Turning her head to look at the twisted mountain of flesh again, Platinum was no longer afraid, but still felt a bit scared.
This monster was simply the Incarnation of madness. Platinum now knew why the knights had to constantly search for the location of this ancient tomb—if this thing got to the surface and let out a roar, millions of people in the four combined cities would probably go insane!
"Ha, this guy is probably the object of worship for these madmen—sigh, I've said it before, don't be so ugly. If it were a Nona, maybe more people would defect."
Confirming that Platinum was fine, and seeing Shining next to him, who had shielded herself from the giant beast's influence with her Spell's radiance, Goki breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, and looked at the mountain-like twisted Great One.
"And it's another giant boss battle. Don't tell me it's going to be an Asura's Wrath plot, fighting a monster the size of half the Earth at the end—I think, this is that so-called Star God."
However, even though the Great One was so massive, She had not escaped Her bonds. Goki's "eye" rune flickered with light, and his sharp gaze turned towards where the chains converged.
At the top of the Great One's corpse, there was a tiny figure, protected by a dazzling radiance, still emitting a soft glow even after hundreds of years.
She was clad in heavy armor, and though she had lost her vitality, her beautiful face had not withered; instead, she wore a faint smile, still as lifelike as a living person.
And in her hand, the longsword deeply embedded in the Star God's head, emitted a soft light at a fixed frequency, just like the scabbard on Goki's back.
This place... was not a tomb, but a battlefield, the site of the Knight King's final battle.
The Knight King did not leave; instead, she fought to the last moment with the Gods People class, who intended to perish together after being overthrown, sealing away the last calamity that could endanger her beloved country.
Just like... the First Church hunter Ludwig, but the difference was that Ludwig sealed himself.
"Ha, it's a pity we met a few hundred years too late. You were a great person—Alright, Director Collins, don't just stand there like an idiot. Come and welcome the person who's about to slaughter you."
Spreading his arms, with blazing flames igniting in his hands, Goki let out a calm yet angry roar. He had a good temper, but he couldn't stand good people dying to defeat scoundrels.
Even if it happened hundreds of years ago.
The angry roar carried his power—the Blood Moon Queen, Seaborn, Originium energy, Balrog, and even the usurped power of the stars were unleashed, momentarily suppressing the Star God's roar.
Now, he brazenly displayed his existence, like a lighthouse in the dark night.
"I wonder if you've cleaned your neck?!"
And then, a familiar, yet somewhat ethereal voice, also echoed in the vast tomb—no, the battlefield.
"Ha—so you really dared to come here to find me, you damned rat..."
A robed figure appeared on the platform where the Knight King was, looking down at Goki and his group from above.
Clad in a pale white robe, identical to those worn by the Choir members, Collins removed his hood. The expression on his face seemed triumphant.
On his arms, several Shining tentacles had already grown out, constantly coiling and flailing, with skin and muscle on one arm growing together with his body.
They protruded and covered his exposed silvery-white skin, like parasitic organisms drawing nourishment, looking exceptionally sanity-draining.
"However, what you've done is meaningless, little rat. A month of disturbance cannot stop the great work my believers are undertaking. I have been drawing on this power for hundreds of years! The power of the stars will reach its peak today, and I will return to my true body! Even if the Knight King were to resurrect, she would pose no threat to me!"
Spreading his still relatively intact arm, he patted the gradually weakening light shield beside him, and looked at the Knight King with her sword plunged into the Star God's body within it. The completely corrupted Collins spoke with extreme excitement.
"I am the will of the Star God! The entity beneath me is merely a vessel for my power; only I am the true Star God!"
Turning his head, Collins looked at the five tiny figures, who in his eyes were no threat. He firmly believed that he was the Star God's rationality, and the mad entity beneath his feet would be controlled by him once the ritual was complete.
"Also, those two Devils mentioned by the Confessariuss, the traitors of Armorless Union, and... the Abyssal Hunter—and you will be the witnesses of my re-descent, and the first wave of sacrifices."
Collins's voice was already extremely hoarse, but he laughed even more happily.
"Seize them, believers! For your God, let them witness the moment of my Ascension!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several tall figures, who had been standing still around Goki, lunged at him from both sides.
Compared to the previous "giants," their figures were even taller, some reaching four or five meters in height, hunched over, wielding several massive chain hammers that they swung with great force, aiming directly at Goki's head.
Boom—clang!
But the next second, the huge body, accompanied by a roar and dust, was directly blasted away, shattering into pieces in mid-air.
Skadi subconsciously checked the greatsword in her hand, confirming that she hadn't instinctively acted. In her perception, no one else could blast away such a massive monster of this Rank except for herself.
"It seems you know a lot about us, so you should also know one of my traits."
As the smoke cleared, Goki lowered his right hand, which had just sent the monster flying. On his forearm, a mechanical metal component with a large alloy arrowhead was retracting into dormancy with a crisp transforming sound.
"Hunter Goki has always kept his word. I said I would slaughter your whole family, and I will certainly wipe out your entire sect!"
If the weapon isn't fierce, it's not worth it!
