The Forbidden Magic Laws of a Fallen Princess
Chapter Summary
Just as I was slowly approaching him, about to sever his head with the Aurora Blade in my hand, a look of fear suddenly appeared on his face, which was contorted with pain. Princess Ivy, if you kill me, you'll never know how to completely wipe out this group of living dead. "If what the Corpse Transporter, Pope Bardern, said is true, then there should be no living people in this cathedral, and the rest, even if they are alive, have begun to turn into zombies.
At that moment, the Pope's piercing, mournful cry echoed throughout the entire papal chamber.
All I could see was his severed arm, and bright red blood gushed out like a fountain.
Of course, I have experienced the pain of losing an arm; it was truly excruciating.
As the saying goes, the ten fingers are connected to the heart, let alone the pain of losing an arm.
Just as I was slowly approaching him, about to sever his head with the Aurora Blade in my hand, a look of fear suddenly appeared on his face, which was contorted with pain.
"Wait, wait, wait, wait...
Princess Ivy, if you kill me, you'll never know how to completely wipe out this group of living dead.
"The High Pope, who had already retreated to a corner in a panic, hurriedly said to me.
It seems he has run out of cards to play, which is why he's using this opportunity to blackmail me into begging for mercy.
"Oh?
Is that so?
Then tell me quickly, otherwise I'll cut off all four of your arms one by one right now, and let you taste the pain of being limbless.
"At that moment, a sinister smile appeared on my face.
Because I know that without that papal scepter, he would have no chance of escaping.
"Okay, I'll tell you, I'll tell you...
actually.
"Just as I stopped to listen, a smile inexplicably crept onto that scoundrel's lips.
I really want to kill him, because I know he's definitely up to some crazy idea again.
"Hahaha, thank you, Princess Ivy.
The timing is perfect.
Just prepare to be devoured by these living dead.
Hahaha, bye-bye!
"Just then, for some unknown reason, a black hole suddenly appeared beneath his feet, and he began to sink rapidly.
It seems he's been waiting for this moment to escape.
Unbeknownst to anyone, at that very moment, I seemed to sense an incredibly powerful and terrifying magical force emanating from the sky.
Then, a black light blasted through our roof, severing the other arm of the Corpse-Carrying Pope who was holding the bell, and simultaneously preventing his escape.
Chapter Sixty-Three: Peach Demon King Milian Arrives to Provide SupportAt this moment, the roof of the entire cathedral was completely pierced, and the dim light from the outside sky was already shining through.
Instantly, the entire church was filled with flying stone chips and dust, making us all feel extremely choked and uncomfortable.
When I looked up, I saw a familiar figure in the sky flapping a bunch of black wings, standing there staring intently into the church.
"Pope Barton, it really was you.
Luckily I arrived in time, otherwise the Kingdom of the Beginning would have truly fallen completely.
"That's right, the one waving demon wings in the sky right now is none other than my contracted familiar, the Demon King Momoko Miriam.
"Cough cough...
Bah, I didn't expect there to be a traitor among the demons in the human kingdom.
I was really careless.
"Sure enough, Peach Millian had been in the demon realm for quite some time and had a vague understanding of this matter.
However, she was unaware of and not present at the strange zombie incident; perhaps she was sent to do something else.
"Damn you, Demon King Milian!
I never imagined you would betray the God of All Evil and join forces with humans!
I'll go to hell with you!
"At this moment, the Corpse Transporter, Pope Bardern, immediately began to hurl profanities at Peach Millian.
However, Peach Milian completely ignored its barking and accelerated down towards us.
Then she raised her little fist and slammed it down on the ground beneath her feet, channeling her terrifying magic.
Perhaps Peach Miriam had also controlled his strength, which is why only the floor of the room of the Corpse Transporter, Pope Bardern, cracked open, with countless rocks rising wildly from the cracks.
Of course, the corpse carrier, Pope Badern, was also instantly crushed to pieces by the piled-up rocks, and all that could be seen was a pool of blood seeping out from the crevice in the color.
"Master, burn this cathedral down with your Samadhi Fire, and be quick.
"At this moment, Peach Millian quickly turned around and shouted loudly at me.
"Uh...
Got it.
"If what the Corpse Transporter, Pope Bardern, said is true, then there should be no living people in this cathedral, and the rest, even if they are alive, have begun to turn into zombies.
Therefore, burning down the cathedral now is the wisest course of action.
Meanwhile, Xiaobai and Anjie's arms have only just been pulled out of the zombie's chest.
It's really...
stuck so tightly, I can't even begin to describe it.
After I saw that Xiaobai and the others had come up behind me, I was able to unleash my Samadhi True Fire to completely eradicate the source of all evil that could destroy the Kingdom of Beginning.
Of course, if you're going to burn it, you have to burn it thoroughly; you absolutely can't let a single one escape.
At that moment, I summoned the Staff of Alice, then began to gather all my magic power, and summoned the spirit of the forbidden magic law directly in front of me.
Sure enough, during this period of time within the forbidden magic laws, many more spells have appeared.
Since that's the case, I can now freely cast and try out new spells.
How delightful!
"Great Crimson Lotus God, please create endless flames of terror that traverse the eternal world.
The eternal fire will cleave the boundaries of time.
In the name of Ivy, the Flame Sparrow Goddess, I command you to temporarily form a pact with me, to fulfill the legendary oath, to create the shattered beginning that returns to the chaos of the end, the final flame of doomsday twilight annihilation!
"In an instant, a giant burning with Samadhi Fire seemed to appear before me; perhaps this was the God of the Crimson Lotus.
It pressed its fingers and staff together, then began to condense a powerful Samadhi Fire.
A terrifying, hissing flame shot out, and the entire cathedral burst into flames, turning to ashes at an extremely rapid pace.
The moment the Crimson Lotus God completely vanished, the cathedral was burned to ashes, leaving nothing behind.
Once I felt the fire had burned enough, I quickly raised Alice's Staff again and swung it forcefully.
The raging Samadhi Fire was extinguished in an instant, just like the flame on a candle.
Indeed, only the person performing the ritual can extinguish the Samadhi Fire.
If the practitioner is unwilling to extinguish it, then this so-called Samadhi True Fire is absolutely impossible to put out, even if it is windy, rainy, hail, or snowy.
Just when I thought everything was done and was about to rest, Peach Millian flew right in front of me.
"Peach, where have you been?
I haven't seen you for days.
"At that moment, I immediately flew over and asked her directly.
"Well...
actually, I went to attack the Demon King's reinforcements, so it took me a while to get here, but...
"At this moment, Momo Miriam's words suddenly choked, and then she frowned slightly, as if there was something bad that she couldn't say.
"What's wrong?
"At this moment, I also felt a little confused.
It was quite unexpected that she, who was usually so carefree, would have something to worry about.
"In fact, Master, you were unable to stop what the Corpse Transporter, Pope Badern, was doing.
"At this moment, Momo Miriam shook her head helplessly.
"Huh?
What the hell?
"Upon hearing this, my relaxed mood instantly tightened again.
"The bell in the hands of the Corpse Transporter, High Pope Badern, is called the Corpse Control Bell.
You should have smashed it as soon as you arrived.
That should have prevented a disaster from happening...
"At this moment, Peach Millian looked quite helpless, as if the situation had become quite serious.
"But I burned the cathedral down completely.
Logically speaking, it should have reduced the damage a bit.
"Honestly, although it's quite serious, it's not beyond repair.
"Indeed, there should be more than 80% of the zombies gathered inside the cathedral.
The main purpose of the zombie transporter, Pope Badern, is to summon some of the zombies hidden here and start attacking humans.
It's just a pity that no one is guiding you...
on what to do.
""Is it still possible to salvage the situation now?
"That's what I care about most.
"Hmm...
It's still okay for now.
Let's start the search from the nearest village and eliminate the remaining 20% as soon as possible.
Otherwise, this Beginning Kingdom might really become a kingdom of the living dead and be completely conquered.
""learn.
"And so, everyone followed my instructions, boarded the guard's carriage, and sped off towards the nearest village.
I hope the consequences aren't too serious, otherwise my poor heart really can't take it.
Just when I was feeling extremely anxious, a flame suddenly shot into the sky in the distance, and then the area was dyed red.
Chapter Sixty-Four: Eliminating the Surrounding Undead"Master, there's something I should say, but I'm not sure if I should.
"Just after the flames from the distant explosion spread all around, Peach Millian said to me with a serious expression.
"Hmm...
Go ahead and say it.
""Actually, Master, you are still not decisive enough in your actions.
You should learn from your father, Emperor Yi, and be ruthless and determined in your actions.
This corpse-transporter, Archpalor Bardern, is indeed the culprit, so you don't need to worry about anything.
Just kill him directly.
If there is anything to be held accountable for, then just take responsibility.
Otherwise, it may lead to an even bigger mistake, just like this time.
"It seems we really were a step too late, and this was indeed my mistake...
because I wasted too much time talking to the Corpse Transporter, Pope Bardern, and there were many times when I could have completely eliminated him, but I hesitated because of the enemy's slander.
As the saying goes, hesitation leads to defeat, and there's some truth to that.
"I understand.
No matter what happens, I will definitely act decisively and without hesitation.
""Hmm...
Master, I believe in you.
You will grow stronger.
"And so, we arrived at the village closest to the cathedral in the Land of Beginnings with the fastest defense.
Although the village has few houses and a small population, its main crop is cotton, which is why it is so easily ignited.
The explosion was likely caused by the fact that this place is far from the main city market, and most households probably have a lot of cooking oil stored up.
Therefore, the explosion was probably caused by an oil drum.
Indeed, oil drums are dangerous things, both in this world and in my past world.
At this time, there weren't many undead on the street.
Perhaps because of the explosion and fire, I could see many charred remains of undead on the ground.
It seems that although these undead have relatively tough bodies, they are very afraid of fire.
