Chapter 266 – A Legend
The women were surprised at best, but the shadows—the originals...
They were not surprised. They were utterly shocked by what they had witnessed.
Not only the revival of their home in such a mystical, absurdly impossible manner, but everything that had happened since the very beginning—the sudden appearance of those women, their unrelenting assault, how they managed to sever the realm in half as if cutting through fabric, and as if that wasn’t enough, how they unleashed a collective attack so devastating it almost completely annihilated a prime world.
It was something terrifying to even imagine, but the fact that it happened made it infinitely more dreadful, more real, more haunting.
Mortis stood there, surrounded by Anya, Red, Neko, Alice, Zara, Elizabeth, Yuki, and Aphasia.
They were eight against one.
And even Mortis, with all his pride and power, couldn’t be sure of victory—especially not against them, especially not now, not after they had obtained a new skill, one that went beyond logic.
But even so, he didn’t particularly care about victory at this moment, because right now, all that consumed his thoughts was understanding just what the fuck was happening, and how exactly his sister was tied to all this madness.
So he simply stood there, eyes blank and heavy with disbelief, as he took in the realm’s renewed vitality, as he looked up into the sky and saw the White Phoenix flying above—its celestial white flame so pure it seemed capable of purifying the most vile of sins and resurrecting entire armies with a single cry.
It was... an awe-inspiring sight.
"It’s just a skill," Neko said, eyes gleaming with curiosity as she observed the majestic creature, "but it eerily looks like a real living being."
