Chapter 401
Chapter 401
The reincarnator, Losha, was silently meditating under the World Tree when her eyes suddenly sprung open . She frowned and flew high in the air while glancing around .
At first, she thought she was mistaken but when she felt it a second and third time, it wasn’t a hunch anymore . She clicked his tongue and glared at the ever-so-silent World Tree while mumbling
"The bastard even got the timing right . Hmpf!"
Her body shot up toward the sky like a blinding star and soon, she left the world known as Astria . Outside of this small and insignificant world is a boundless darkness . Though it was easy leaving Astria, entering was a whole other matter .
Losha cared not about that, her duty was to fend off against what’s to come . The world Darkness remained like so for two days until a blinding radiance covered half of this isolated place . Losha clicked his tongue in annoyance
"Arghh I fucking hate angels!"
Just as she said that, several winged figures appeared not far away from her, each emanating a suffocating pressure, which didn’t affect her .
There was exactly five angels, led by a blondie with three pair of wings . Despite their exceptional and heavenly beauty, Losha was disgusted and almost vomited upon seeing them .
Just the aura they emitted caused to have goosebumps .
The blond-haired angel leading this small group momentarily frowned before smiling and walking toward Losha .
"If it isn’t Miss Losha . "
"..."
Losha remained silent, her glare piercing him like a dagger . As the Fate Contract stated, anyone wanting to attack or enter Astria shall be eliminated, no matter who they are, meaning that all these angels will be killed by her .
Although an angel with six wings is powerful, it’s not something she can’t handle .
The reincarnator didn’t even waste time chatting with the approaching angel . Her body turned crystalline as diamond covered her .
Like a bloodthirsty beast, she leaped at the leader, wanting to kill him . Her attack, however, was unsuccessful as the four angels at the back both jumped to protect their leader . The four of them wielded long golden spears and through flawless cooperation, they managed to block Losha’s punch .
Four spears were pressed against each other, blocking a single fist, which still managed to push the four angels a few meters .
The blond-haired angel’s smile disappeared ever since she attacked out of the blue . Just like his comrades, he took out a long golden spear and vanished only to appear behind Losha .
He stabbed his spear at the woman, who didn’t bother to retaliate . The spear tip wasn’t even able to injure her hardened skin, it was more like an itch, really .
Although Losha didn’t retaliate against the leader, she still finished off the four angels . Her fist was blocked by the four spears but her other free hand slashed the air, instantly cutting the spears and the four angels in two pieces, causing blood to splatter on her face and body .
With an ugly expression, she spat some of the bitter and disgusting blood before turning toward the leader, whose face became as pale as a sheet of paper .
Losha is a well known for many reasons . First, because she’s an 8-star God Monarch, her background isn’t normal either, moreover, her identity as a reincarnator, which isn’t known by many .
The angel believed that they’ll be able to easily handle her and resolve this issue . Never did he expect her to be this ruthless, slaughtering his comrades like that, without any hesitation .
When he saw her bloodied face and chilling gaze, he knew that he’ll be next . His six wings flashed with a blinding radiance which was soon cut off by Losha’s Divine Sword .
The sword cut two wings, causing the blondie to groan from the pain and shame . For an angel, their wings are more important than their life, once they’re cut, they’ll have no place in Heaven .
Still, the angel didn’t despair as he could use the ’signal’ to alert Heaven . Losha protecting this place confirmed their previous suspicions . The World Tree is here and the other angels must know!
Unfortunately, Losha’s attacks were just too ferocious and fast . Her movements were simple yet extremely fatal . In less than a minute from their appearance, the angels were eradicated and the leader was already half-dead .
As a last means to struggle for his life, he sacrificed three of his wings to teleport of this place . Before he managed to get away, Losha managed to cut his last wing, causing him even more heavy damage .
Bloodied and miserable, the blond angel appeared in hot desert where the sand was blood-red . As he laid on his back and panted heavily, the dying angel struggled to retrieve a golden cup .
He mustered all his strength to put it next to his head before starting his cast
"B-by God’s Name...*cough* I, I besee-"
Unfortunately, his casting came to halt when a figure that was nonchalantly flying in the air suddenly descended next to him . Hopeful, he turned his head toward this person with much anticipation .
Like always, he wore a weird white costume and behaved like a lunatic, to say the least . He was chewing gum as he glanced down at the angel . It was only through a fluke did he notice this dying ’thing’ .
"Bitch! You look like a homeless drunkard! My dead grandmother looks better than you tsk tsk!"
The Joker shook his head in disappointment before continuing:
"I thought angels were supposed to be majestic, righteous, bla bla bla... How come I only see a pile of dying shit? Is this perhaps a pleasant dream?"
He rubbed his eyes several times as if to ascertain of the current situation .
"Fuck! It’s actually true!"
The Joker inspected the dying angel yet again, thoroughly checking him from head to toe before mocking him again:
"I’ve seen wild dogs in better condition than you... shit! A cockroach has more dignity than you . Come on man, if you want to crawl in this lovely desert, you have to do it properly, here... lemme show you . "
The Joker laid on the ground and assumed a swimming position before he started crawling .
The angel’s face turned red from anger and embarrassment, he took a deep breath before shouting with a hoarse voice
"E-enough! Help me . "
The Joker stopped crawling and calmly got up . After patting dome sand off his clothes, he threw another chewing gum into his mouth and only after fully savoring its flavor did he talk again:
"Oh no! What do I do?"
He acted panicked and backed away from the angel while hugging himself and adding:
"I’m but a pitiful mortal! I don’t dare touch one of God’s pure creations! Oh it’s sinful... too sinful!"
The angel, whose death is imminent, glared at the Joker before turning toward the golden cup and continuing the cast... or so it should have been were it not for the Joker, who snatched the golden cup .
Mouthfuls of blood were spat by the angels, who stretched his hand in the air, precisely toward the Joker, who waved at him and flew away as if nothing happened .
So, like that, the angel took his last breath in this unknown place, surrounded by a mysterious red desert that stretched for millions of kilometers .
After a few hours, the Joker, who was cheerfully flying across that desert suddenly halted mid-air and said
"Oh... I forgot to introduce myself! Shit! It would’ve been worth it for him if he saw my amazing introduction before he dies . It would’ve allowed him to go to Heaven..."

A humanoid creature with two large wings and a horn erecting from his forehead was currently kneeling in front of an illusory silhouette .
"Master, please look at this . "
Belos handed a recording crystal to ’X’, who was gazing at the night sky with an absent-minded look . Hearing his subordinate call out to him, ’X’ snapped out of his daze and fumbled with the crystal before nonchalantly watching the recorded footage .
It showed a large tiger with two dramatically different wings, lightning swirled around it and it used the infamous Dark Magic . ’X’ leaned his head closer to the crystal and carefully re-watched the whole fight .
"Dark Magic?"
’X’ asked his trustful servant only to receive an honest answer
"Yes, it is Zodiak’s Dark Magic, without a doubt . A lot of powers are making a move as Zodiak’s legacy is not something to be trifled with . "
’X’ remained silent for a long time before coldly snorting, clearly displeased
"Hmpf! I fought that sinister old man in more than one occasion . He’s always full of tricks! Still, his Dark Magic is really dangerous . "
He got up and picked his cane before adding
"Well, it matters not . Focus on finding Arthur, the Orb should cause a huge disturbance soon enough and at that time, he won’t be able to hide! Hehehehehe"
