The Villain Saint is my secondary account

"First, you need to die a few more times to experience your own divinity."

Isadora's gentle voice sounded like a cold breeze to Ella's ears.

"...Your Majesty, have your children discussed with you whether your teaching methods are too harsh?"

Ella's lips twitched.

"No, they've never had any objections."

Isadora chuckled.

"Snapped"

The next second, the roaring crimson lightning transformed into a long dragon, slamming Ella's petite body back into the dark mud, creating a huge splash.

The poor girl, who had been spinning in her own mud like a tumbleweed, was now only half-body, but soon the fine tendrils that emerged from her wounds wove her body back together.

But before Ella could break free of the mud, a crescent-shaped beam of cold light descended from the sky and cleaved the massive mud pit in two.

The scene resembled the parting of the sea by Moses, with the cold frost freezing the muddy surface that had been divided in two.

The weak and helpless Ella looked at the queen in the sky, who held two swords and had wings on her back, and felt a chill run down her spine.

"So, did you feel it this time?"

Isadora's tone remained as gentle as ever.

"It hurts, it hurts too much."

Ella said with a sullen face.

"Focus on your soul, and don't let your attention be drawn to bodily sensations."

Isadora raised her twin swords, crossed them, and then swung them down with a fierce slash.

The magic on the sword, following the trajectory of the blade, unleashed a strike powerful enough to tear the earth apart, instantly piercing through the mud and heading straight for Ella.

Even before the strike landed, the sharp intent that propelled the air currents caused Ella's beautiful silver hair to flutter in the air.

Shift and change!

Ella hurriedly chanted a prayer, and her figure vanished in an instant. But she had only appeared not far from Isadora's side when the latter, as if she had foreseen it, transformed into lightning and slashed down with her sword without hesitation.

With no way to avoid it, Ella immediately swung her sword, unleashing black flames to parry. The azure blade struck the blade, and the resulting chill instantly paralyzed Ella's arm holding the sword.

As the swords clashed, Isadora unleashed a series of lightning strikes with her right hand. However, this time, Ella's right arm suddenly shifted the force, following the opponent's previous sword momentum as she spun down in mid-air, narrowly avoiding the lightning bolts from the sword.

Isadora flapped her wings and chased after her. As she fell, Ella manipulated the tentacles that rose from the mud around her to surround and intercept Isadora. However, Isadora was as fast as lightning and passed through the net of tentacles in an instant. She slashed out a crescent-shaped sword with a cold light, like a shooting star chasing the moon, straight towards Ella.

But this time Ella was prepared. With a sudden slash of her left hand in the air, a spatial gate opened instantly, and the icy sword energy passed through it and then suddenly appeared from the raven that was chasing Isadora to the right.

Isadora immediately swung her Thunder Sword to clash with the frost-covered sword energy she had unleashed. In the instant, Ella's ghostly figure shifted to Isadora's left side, and with a flick of her left hand, she imbued the blade with black flames and slashed out.

The blade's gleam, burning with black flames, caught Isadora's eye. She immediately turned her left hand to parry with her ice sword, but unexpectedly, several tentacles shot out from under Ella's skirt like snakes.

Isadora immediately flapped her wings to the side to create space, and then slashed with her twin swords, severing all the tentacles that came chasing from all directions.

Tentacles rained down from the sky, and the mud beneath Ella's feet rose instantly. A giant tentacle burst through the mud, catching her falling body as it rushed toward Isadora.

Isadora chuckled with a hint of approval, swiftly severing the surrounding tentacles. With a flap of her wings, she gracefully darted away from the pursuing tentacles, her twin swords poised to meet Ella's charge as she flew up.

Like a bird trailing red and blue light, it flew through countless dark and interwoven rain curtains and crashed into the towering waves. The huge impact then erupted again at the center of their collision.

Chapter 189 Sky Chase

A group of people are evacuating from the eastern part of the city to the western part.

Van Helsing placed one hand on his forehead, gazing at the extraordinary, earth-shattering phenomenon in the distance, and involuntarily swallowed.

"Hey buddy, the reconstruction of this city is going to cost a lot of money."

Li Cheng walked beside him and smiled.

"That's something the Ministry of Finance needs to consider."

Van Helsin let out a long sigh. "How come it's still so cold even after we've come this far? Is it just my imagination? I have a feeling that the movement over there is moving this way."

"No way,"

A player nearby said, "We've already escaped all this way, we can't let the aftershocks kill us."

"boom"

As they spoke, the ground beneath their feet began to tremble again.

Although there had been several tremors during the evacuation, the violent shaking still made people dizzy. With the surrounding houses cracking and breaking, a group of people were thrown around in a daze.

"Oh my god, this is too hard to watch, it's like we're filming a post-apocalyptic survival movie."

"Hey, hey, hey, brothers!"

Some players with better eyesight lay prone on the ground and saw the storm and the Black Sea gradually expanding in the distance. "It really looks like it's coming this way?"

"Holy crap, run! Run! Run!!"

Realizing something was wrong, the players started screaming. It was one thing to participate in the battle to survive, but it was too abstract to be killed by the aftermath of a battle between gods when they were finally about to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

The group hurried on their way again, but less than half a minute later, a shooting star streaked across the sky with red and blue light. The wind pressure it created as it cut through the air was enough to blow the players on the ground flat on their backs.

Immediately afterwards, a large flock of crows, like black bombers, streaked across the sky, followed by an increasingly loud rumbling sound from the ground.

"What's that sound?!"

Before the crowd could get up from the ground, they turned around and saw that the black mud in the streets and alleys not far away was like a raging torrent that swallowed everything, and the buildings and streets on the road were instantly submerged by the tsunami that was as high as seven or eight stories.

They immediately turned pale and ran in all directions, screaming in panic.

"Fuck!"

"Help!!!"

The next second, everyone was completely swallowed up by the flood formed from the silt.

However, Ella's sludge wouldn't cause any real harm to the players who were unintentionally affected; it just looked rather frightening.

So those who understood, like Li Cheng, simply spread their hands and gave the onrushing mud a warm embrace.

Since you can't escape it anyway, you might as well bravely enjoy it.

……

At this moment, Ella rode on the surging waves of mud, as if riding on the head of a giant python, crashing through the streets and alleys from the original battlefield, chasing after Isadora flying overhead.

It wasn't that Ella was suddenly feeling playful and wanted to try surfing in the city; it was just that Isadora was flying too fast, and since she couldn't fly, and her raven with the spatial anchor was not only difficult to catch up with Isadora, but would also be shot down by her blood arrows. So this was the only way she could chase after her.

Although Isadora's swordsmanship was superb, even surpassing Ella's, after a few rounds, she found that as long as she fought Ella in close combat on that muddy sea, no matter how many times she hit her, Ella would instantly recover. However, if she made a mistake and failed to dodge the countless tentacles on the sea, she would inevitably get grazed.

The black flames on her tentacles prevent vampires from healing their own wounds. Without focusing on recovery, they simply cannot treat them. This results in her minor injuries accumulating over time. Even though Ella has suffered several fatal wounds, she is practically indistinguishable from someone who has never been injured.

So, while pondering this, Isadora decided that it would be safer to keep her distance and go to the outer reaches of the Muddy Sea, using her magic to kite the guy.

"But Your Majesty, this isn't fun!"

But Ella, riding the torrent, rampaged across the ground, watching Isadora flying in the sky, raining down countless lightning balls upon her like bombs from a bomber. She could only helplessly shout as she summoned her tentacles to block the attack.

"Who knew you'd be so shameless?"

Isadora's voice, gentle yet tinged with pleasure, rang in Ella's ear, "I am a god of the Chaos side, after all. What's wrong with causing some damage to human cities as a side effect?"

Speechless, Ella could only follow Isadora and carve out a river through the East District, even though this caused all the buildings and factories along the way to be washed away and destroyed by the silt.

Forget it, maybe we can donate some money for urban reconstruction to Fog City in the name of the Heville family later.

With this in mind, Ella's guilt lessened considerably, and she became even more unrestrained while surfing.

But she still had to find a way to get closer to Isadora, who was flying in the sky. As they chased each other, the Thames River, which meandered like a ribbon, came into view. On the opposite bank, a towering clock tower that stood proudly caught Ella's eye.

Without much thought, a semi-transparent wave suddenly condensed in her palm. Taking advantage of the tentacles that sprouted from her body to block the lightning that struck down from the sky, she let out a soft shout and flicked her hand, and an invisible sharpness suddenly condensed into a huge arc and slashed out across the sky.

The whistling spatial slash tore through the city sky, cleaving the towering clock tower in two with a single blow.

The upper half of the clock tower, which had stood straight, collapsed with a crash.

"Hey?"

Isadora, who was just flying past the clock tower with her wings spread, widened her eyes slightly, and her tiny figure was instantly swallowed up by the collapsing building.

Taking advantage of the delay, Ella manipulated the mud beneath her feet to suddenly accelerate, and the black torrent broke through the riverbank. A large flock of crows, like dark clouds looming overhead, also rushed into the ruins of the building that was falling from the sky.

Using the crow's vision as a link, she locked onto Isadora, who had spread out a red barrier to protect herself amidst the collapsing rubble. In a flash, she teleported into the rubble and drew her long sword to slash at Isadora.

Isadora reacted quickly, flapping her wings and dodging Ella's black-fire-infused blade amidst the falling rocks.

However, the protective barrier was easily shattered like paper. So Isadora immediately swung her ice sword with her left hand to strike Ella, and with her lightning sword in her right hand, she unleashed a bolt of lightning that pierced a huge gap in the wall in front of her. Then, she flapped her wings and shot out like a rocket.

Having finally closed the distance, Ella was not about to let the opportunity slip away. The tentacles under her skirt instantly transformed into hooks, grabbing the falling walls and rocks and launching her like a slingshot as she chased after Isadora.

The two emerged one after the other from the clock tower that had collapsed in mid-air. Isadora, with her agile turning, made a sharp U-turn, drawing an arc in the air like a nimble bird before circling into the archway beneath the magnificent Westminster Bridge.

Ella then flicked her tentacles to hook onto the bridge pier, accelerating as she crossed the bridge. At the same time, she slashed her finger across the bridge surface below, and the indestructible spatial slash instantly severed the bridge surface.

The bridge collapsed in response, crashing down on Isadora who was passing underneath. Ella, who was above, seized the opportunity to let out a soft cry and instantly conjured a black fireball the size of a wheel in her left hand, which she then slammed down like a baseball pitcher swinging his arm.

The black fireball, like a cannonball, shot straight down, crashed into the river and exploded with a deafening roar. The rapidly expanding wave of fire directly pulverized the buildings on both sides of the bridge, and a huge pillar of black fire shot into the sky.

The river water evaporated along with the flames until the black flames subsided, at which point the water from both ends of the river channel, which had been blasted into a hemispherical shape, spiraled back in.

Chapter 190 The Empress's Divine Authority

But as the flames dissipated, the Queen's figure did not appear in the empty, sunken riverbed. Just as Ella was wondering about this, she suddenly saw a bat fly silently past her.

Sure enough, the bat swelled into a cloud of blood mist the next second, and Isadora's sly smile appeared from within it.

Ella instinctively swung her knife, but suddenly saw a deep red magic circle appear beneath her feet.

Blood-red chains shot out and wrapped around Ella's limbs.

"Here we go again! I don't want to do bondage anymore!"

But this time, Ella frowned and suddenly exerted force with both arms, her slender hands swelling into furry white wolf claws in the blink of an eye.

And accompanying the wolf claws was an immense, monstrous strength surging from every part of the body.

A crisp metallic cracking sound rang out as she ripped the sturdy, blood-red chain in two.

But before she could retaliate, the crimson magic circle suddenly shifted again, and the immense gravity dragged her body down violently, as if an invisible giant stone pillar had suddenly fallen from the sky and smashed her into the riverbed below.

The river water that had just flowed back was smashed into a hole by the immense gravity, and the mud at the bottom of the river was also smashed into a deep pit.

The poor girl at the bottom of the pit turned into a mess, but within seconds, countless tiny tentacles sprouted from it and quickly wove together to form a human shape.

"Your Majesty, this is too much! This is the most painful time I've ever experienced!"

Ella, her upper body emerging from the black mud, shouted angrily.

"Who's really going too far?"

Isadora flew in mid-air with a wry smile on her face. "No wonder those kids were only thinking about how to use my power to trap you. It turns out that there's no other way to deal with you except by trapping you."

"But you've got blood bats, ice lightning, and gravity spells all at you. You've got way too many divine spells! What kind of divine authority can be so exaggerated?!"

As the river flooded back, Ella fully recovered, and the silt that surged from beneath her lifted her to the surface.

However, her saintly gown couldn't withstand the repeated damage and was completely torn to shreds. Ella had no choice but to summon a lump of black mud and pile it on her body, then open a spatial portal and pull out a cloak to put on.

Isadora considerately stopped and waited for Ella to get dressed, then explained with a smile, "I didn't use the power of divine authority, it was just some ordinary spells mixed with divine power. After all, you're only at the initial Saint rank, it would be too much of a bully for me to use divine authority."

...Ordinary spells?

Ella's lips twitched. In other words, what she had just seen was only the level that a typical Saint-level mage should have.

"The true divine authority of the I Ching belongs to the realm of mythology, but if you want to see the power of the mythological level, you can."

Isadora then added understandingly.

"Ah this..."

Ella looked at Isadora, who was eager to try, and her face fell. "Do I really have to see it?"

"Because of His limitations, it is difficult for new Saint-level beings to appear in the present world, let alone any other deity that can display such power."

Isadora said softly, "Besides, you won't die anyway, so you can take this opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of divine authority and laws."

"...But I feel like you're just looking for someone to play with, Your Majesty."
