Damn, I Have to Marry the Strongest Antagonist at the Start?

Chapter 496: Chapter492-Brutality



At this moment, Seraphina approached and said, "We'll be leaving for a while, and it might be a long time. Just stay here quietly and wait for us."

Little Leslie looked around at everyone, her small face serious.

"Aunties, big sisters, please let me go with you this time! You've refused me before, but this time, let me come!"

"No!" Seraphina and the others shook their heads firmly.

"You're still too young. When you grow up, you can fight alongside us," Ysera added, trying to reason with her.

"I'm strong now. I can definitely help you! Besides, if all of you lose, where else can I go?" Little Leslie said, her eyes reddening.

Her words plunged everyone into silence.

They knew the harsh truth. If this final stand failed, even with Little Leslie remaining in the small world, she would have no place to survive.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"If you're going to follow us, you must promise to behave and not run around. Do you understand?" Madelyn finally spoke, her tone serious.

Little Leslie nodded repeatedly. "I'll be good! I promise!"

Madelyn turned to Archdemon, Ymir, and the others.

"Little Leslie will stay by your side. You must ensure her safety at all costs."

Archdemon and the others nodded solemnly.

"For Little Leslie, we'll protect her with our lives!"

Their determination was evident. Little Leslie was not only Owen's daughter but someone they all adored and admired.

Seeing their resolve, Madelyn glanced beyond the small world and nodded.

"Then let's go. This time, we'll give it everything we've got!"

...

Beneath the Capital of Azure Kingdom

Among The Celestial's divine beasts, the Serpent of the End, the giant ape King Kong, and the Nine-Headed Hellhound stood like three towering mountains, dominating the heavens and earth.

Each one of them possessed top-tier power, and together, their combined aura twisted the surrounding space into a distorted spiral.

Inside the capital, every mage felt a bone-chilling dread, their scalps tingling with fear.

Beside the three colossal beasts, Loki, spider-like in form, moved swiftly across a sticky web, closing in from the distance.

Behind him followed Caesar and the celestial gods who had surrendered to The Celestial.

When they arrived, Dolores appeared, clad in resplendent battle armor, exuding an oppressive and commanding presence. Her flawless face was icy cold, her gaze fixed on the capital before her.

To her knowledge, Owen was the emperor of the Azure Kingdom, and this capital was his stronghold.

Now that the Azure Kingdom was on the brink of collapse, if Owen was still alive, he would surely appear here.

A swirl of complex emotions churned in her heart.

At that moment, Bright King, the bald monk beside her, cast a compassionate yet solemn glance her way.

"Why is the general's heart disturbed?"

His hoarse, low voice carried across the battlefield, drawing the attention of the others.

Both the alternate-dimension forces and The Celestial's top-tier fighters turned their curious gazes toward Dolores.

To the alternate-dimension forces, Dolores was synonymous with power. Despite being a woman, her valor and strength had suppressed countless champions.

With victory so close at hand, why would her heart be unsettled?

For The Celestial's elite, Dolores was an especially unique figure. She had captured the attention of Lady Tsukihime, a fact widely known among the upper echelons of The Celestial.

Being valued by Lady Tsukihime was a rare honor.

Now, seeing Dolores's distraction, they couldn't help but focus on her.

Dolores remained expressionless, her demeanor unwavering. She gave no indication that their inquiries concerned her in the slightest.

She was lost in thought, wondering what emotions might surface if she encountered Owen here.

As Dolores ignored them, the others turned their attention back to the gates of the capital. At that moment, the tightly shut gates slowly opened.

The War Goddess led Venus and the others out, while the Rebel Alliance's celestial gods readied themselves for battle, warily observing the fearsome forces at the gate.

"Lord of Stars! War Goddess! We meet again!"

The Serpent of the End transformed into an eerie young man, his pupils black and white, glaring intently at the War Goddess and Lord of Stars.

Among the gathered forces, only these two posed a significant threat to him.

Facing the Serpent of the End's stare, the Lord of Stars stepped forward, meeting his gaze coldly.

"It's been years, and to think a mere snake could grow into such a formidable creature."

"Ha! Thanks to you! Your relentless campaigns against my kind caused heavy casualties. If not for that, I wouldn't have ascended to the throne as the divine beast under Lady Tsukihime's command."

The Serpent of the End's tone grew icier.

"How many of my kin have you slaughtered over the years? Today, it's time for you to pay the

price!"

Instantly, a ferocious and violent magical aura locked onto the Lord of Stars, clearly marking him as its target.

In truth, the Serpent of the End paid little attention to anyone else besides the War Goddess and the Lord of Stars.

Hearing the Serpent of the End's arrogant words, the War Goddess sneered coldly.

"Then try it. The one who falls here today might just be you!"

Her disdainful gaze only stoked the Serpent of the End's killing intent. A terrifying chill filled

the air as his pupils gleamed with murderous light.

At the same time, Loki squinted, his gaze settling on Ysera, standing behind the War Goddess and the Lord of Stars. His expression turned icy.

Ysera, though she was his daughter, met his gaze head-on without flinching.

To her, Loki was no father. He had abandoned her and her mother, behaving like nothing

more than a beast.

"Ysera, what do you think you're doing?" Loki's icy voice rang out, dripping with false

concern, like a father chastising his wayward daughter.

"Loki, it's time to settle our score. For my mother's vengeance, you will pay the price!" Ysera

replied coldly.

Meeting her fiery gaze, Loki's expression darkened, his eyes brimming with murderous

intent.

As a general trusted by Lady Tsukihime, he roared with fury and issued his command:

"Kill them all! Leave no one alive!"

The order had barely left his lips when Caesar and the other celestial gods under The Celestial's command charged at full speed toward the Azure Kingdom's capital. Seeing Loki's command to attack, the War Goddess and the Lord of Stars were not to be outdone. Letting out primal roars, they charged forward like untamed beasts, leading their forces into battle.

As the War Goddess and the Lord of Stars unleashed their overwhelming Primordial God-tier auras, mages below the celestial god level were crushed by the oppressive force. They could barely breathe, let alone move.

Under the constraints of this terrifying pressure, the battlefield was effectively limited to celestial gods and above.

"Take care of Little Leslie!" Madelyn ordered Archdemon and the others before stepping into the battlefield defined by the War Goddess and the Lord of Stars.

At that moment, she fully activated her Death's Calamity bloodline. An endless aura of death corroded time and space, saturating the heavens and earth.

Shrouded in this ominous aura, she exuded an air of highborn iciness, like a deity presiding

over death itself.

The celestial gods of the Azure Kingdom unleashed their most powerful energies, forming

earth-shaking waves of magical force.

Boom!

The void between the two sides erupted continuously, with chaotic auras surging and countless [Order] runes flashing before scattering like fireflies amidst the chaos.
