An intense feeling of uneasiness rose up in the Grand Pontiff's chest.

He quickly turned and saw a frightening rift slowly opening up in the sky above him.

"Priest Regiment," he bellowed, "enemy invasion!"

In an instant, a beautiful silver circle surrounded the entire capital.

The people kneeling on the ground looked at that fissure in utmost horror.

Wasn't it supposed to be a judgement for the sinner?

How could it suddenly get interrupted?

And why did that huge crack feel so scary?

They couldn't get rid of the questions nagging at their hearts, and their instincts urged them to escape.

But they had been indoctrinated by the Black Dragon Church for a long time, so they couldn't just leave without being dismissed from the prayer by the Pontiff.

They could only keep kneeling as they watched the Priest Regiment and the other soldiers following the Pontiff to battle.

'We will definitely win.'

'This great land belongs to our God!'

'Regardless of what enemy there is, if it wants to infringe upon God's land, it will be repelled and will suffer a disastrous defeat!'

The followers were mumbling and thinking to themselves, but their eyes were still focused on that jagged fissure zig-zagging across the sky.

...

The crack was expanding continuously.

A shadow silently began to materialize out of the darkness.

The followers all watched closely, not wanting to miss a single detail.

As the man came out of the darkness, they realized that his appearance was familiar to them and they all cursed:

"It's the sinner!"

"It's the heretic!"

"It's that bastard, Marvin!"

Fright and doubt began to spread throughout the entire capital as everyone gradually came to a realization.

'The Martyr from the imperial family wasn't able to kill him?'

'What's happening?'

'Shouldn't he be burning in our hero's flames?'

'How could he even find and get to this plane?'

Doubts arose in their hearts. Their faith wasn't easily swayed, but as they looked at Marvin in the sky above them, their eyes were filled with fear.

It was especially so for the Pontiff.

He knew the power of Self-Immolation Fire more than anyone else here.

'Marvin was just a Legend, so how could he escape the judgement of the Self-Immolation Fire?'

'Moreover, for him to dare to step foot in Black Dragon Wing, this is utterly suicidal!'

'Even if he is powerful, he is still a mortal!'

'He was able to escape the Self-Immolation Fire, but is he able to escape the entire Divine Power Army?'

As he reassured himself with these thoughts, the Pontiff's confidence swelled.

He pointed dispassionately at Marvin as he admonished, "It must have been quite fortuitous for you, having some trick that even let you elude the Divine Fire's judgement."

"But you are also very foolish! After barely managing to scamper away, you ought to have found some corner to hide, like the loathsome rat that you are! You shouldn't have hurried to your doom in God's territory like an outright imbecile!"

"I am quite taken aback that you didn't die to the Divine Fire, but unfortunately for you, you'll just die here instead!"

The Grand Pontiff then regally ordered, "Priest Regiment, at attention!"

"Divine Punishment! End that vile heretic!"

Marvin still had a calm expression the whole time while listening to the Pontiff's pompous preaching.

A sneer even appeared at the corner of his mouth.

He finally came all the way out of the fissure and appeared in front of everyone.

The entire population of Black Dragon Wing glared at him resentfully.

"It's truly a heretic! There aren't any scales on his body!"

"It's a lowly Human! Turns out this scum is a slave."

"Such a menial creature actually dared to offend God! Kill him!"

The Imperial Capital once again flew into an uproar.

Following the outburst of those loud voices, those silvery gleams turned into flowing onyx flames.

Blossoming flames burst from the surrounding towers and condensed above the most important tower!

"Bang!"

The frightening Divine Punishment directly blasted the unruly Human that was hovering in the sky.

"Boom!"

Marvin's body shattered into pieces, and tiny shreds of charred paper gently fluttered down from the sky.

A hint of doubt appeared on the Pontiff's face.

The Divine Punishment kept on going as it tore its way through the sky, shooting into the jet-black rift.

"ROOOOAAAARRRRR!"

As this primordial howl erupted out, the sky seemed to cave in.

The crack in the sky suddenly became a lot bigger.

A giant, frightening claw peeked out from inside!

That pitch-black claw was strangely jagged!

"Boom!"

The Divine Judgment exploded against that claw.

The Pontiff paled in consternation.

He didn't even have time to give out an order when the owner of the claw suddenly went ballistic!

That behemoth from Feinan could now confirm that the flames that had attacked it earlier had truly originated from this plane.

The Divine Punishment that struck its claw just a moment ago had the same quality as the Divine Fire that was still burning at it even now!

Thus, that huge claw pushed its way further out as everyone watched in shock!

A strange force field surrounded the imperial Capital and all the Clerics instantly lost their ability to cast spells.

The poor Pontiff was unceremoniously turned into mincemeat by the claw!

The formerly magnificent tower in the center of the Imperial Capital also loudly collapsed, causing the ground beneath them to shake!

...

"What is that?"

Everyone was staring numbly at the monster as it slowly forced its way out of the fissure in the sky.

They had never seen such a huge creature before, such a horrifying monster!

It had four limbs with sharp claws at the end, a body as long as a snake, and was covered with countless eyes!

"Rumble!"

As everyone suddenly broke out of their stupor and began to panic, the frenzied monster landed. Just from that, its huge body collapsed half of the imperial capital.

The silver light shattered, and who knew how many Clerics were crushed to death right then?

All the inhabitants of that world were swept with hysteria.

They felt the unstoppable aura of destruction.

That monster came to destroy this world.

"Flee!" No one knew who shouted that word.

But everyone started running away.

The order that had been carefully maintained by the Black Dragon God Church had been barbarously broken!

But none of them were able to escape!

The next moment, the eyes on the sides of the Crypt Monster opened!

Fiery, icy, acidic, petrifying, disintegrating, even just pure death… All kinds of frightening rays beamed out indiscriminately.

Whether people or things, nothing could resist that shower of rays!

Even Legends wouldn't be able to withstand the blast from all those rays!

Moreover, it had an enormous body.

A casual twist, a simple move, and an imposing building would collapse!

The entire Imperial Capital fell into panic like it was the end of the world.

And that scene fell into the eyes of one of the Gods who had just helped shatter the Universe Magic Pool, the Black Dragon God.

"How?"

"How could he survive? How could he control the Crypt Monster's movements?"

The Black Dragon God was extremely shocked. This was unbelievably vexing.

He was hiding right now, preparing to fight the Astral Beast. He couldn't move!

Did he have to watch helplessly as Marvin destroyed his Secondary Plane?
