Chapter 10: Judgment Chime

Rafaela understood her master wanted to play the victim to strike the whole big organization from its roots by allowing them to be kidnapped without a fight. They discovered these humans had a deal with demons, and it was not the first transaction.

Rather than simple kidnapping for slavery, it was a more extensive scheme for evil ritual sacrifices. She was taken to a pyramid altar and thrown into the pit with her master.

An ominous demonic egg was there, and these demons wished to revive the Heavenly Demon!?

"Unforgivable. They deserved to die a horrible death!"

That was what Rafaela had in mind before her master was sucked into the evil-looking egg.

"Where are things going wrong?"

That came to Rafaela\'s mind after her master was sucked into the evil-looking egg. She felt at a loss for a second. Her master was currently facing the Heavenly Demon inside that egg alone.

Rafaela transformed her Versatile Slime into her signature black outfit and a long sword. She swung her sword to break open the egg, but her move was deflected without causing a single scratch.

*Swoosh!*

The sinister aura exploded from the egg, suddenly emitting a thick and heavy demonic aura.

*Rumble!* *Rumble!*

Thunder rumbled, and lightning flashed all around. The black clouds in the dark red sky were toppled over as if something was about to descend from there.

Rafaela could hardly breathe and almost puked a mouthful of blood because of the terrible sense of oppression. Her master was still there, and she had to help her master prevent the Heavenly Demon from awakening!

"Our almighty lord is awakening!"

"It\'s a great success!"

"As expected. Our ancestor will return and rock the world with his might!"

"No one dares to fight our cult from now on, haha!"

The excited cries of the demons outside sounded like fanatical followers.

*Swoosh!*

The terrifying demonic energy instantly died, and the calamity phenomenon slowly dispersed.

*Crack* *Crack*

The evil-looking egg cracked and crushed from the inside. The pillar of divine golden light then descended from the sky, illuminating the shrine priestess, who was covered in a semi-transparent purple liquid.

*Tinkle* *Ting-a-ling*

The tinkling of the bells echoed. The divine light shone from the Demon Realm\'s red sky. Hundreds of golden lightning flashed around the sacrificial site, raining down on the evil demons and paralyzing them.

"Master!" Rafaela was pleasantly surprised.

"The great demon already perished. It\'s time to pass judgment upon the evil demons." Ely extended her hand to Rafaela.

"Allow me to punish the sinners." Rafaela knelt down and took her master\'s hand.

"Good." Ely gave her consent, then asked her tree-like bells artifact to create a path to the sky.

It materialized a golden light staircase to the sky. Ely climbed the stairs, and Rafaela followed behind her.

...

"Ugh, what happened!?"

"I can\'t move!"

"I also can\'t muster any power. I can\'t even channel my qi!"

"Kuah! Divine light! Someone ambushed our sacrificial site!"

"Protect our lord, but my body isn\'t moving!"

The evil demons fell to the ground, unable to move under the suppression of the divine light.

The victims who would be sacrificed were not struck by golden lightning or exposed to debuffs from divine light. They were protected and gifted with an inexplicable sense of security instead.

A golden staircase suddenly materialized above the pyramid, and two people walked up it like a pair of messengers from heaven.

"What, what is that?"

"They are the God of Light\'s messengers!"

"No, they are the God themselves! That golden aura!"

"God, please save us and punish the evil!"

The victims of sacrifice prostrated on the ground at the sight of the two figures on the golden steps in the sky.

"The sinners, evildoers. The divine light and heavenly thunder shall judge your crimes against the sins accumulated during your lifetime. Divine Light and Lightning of Heaven, punish them!" Ely shook her Kagura Verity, causing the sound of ringing bells.

*Rumble* *Rumble* *Shine*

A massive pillar of light and three golden thunderbolts struck every evil demon within the AoE attack range. This time was not to paralyze them but for the actual punishment. The more evil energy within them, the greater the damage was done.

More than a hundred high-level demons were reduced to ashes within that second. Ely proved those demons could not be saved by penance because their sins were too big under her holy artifact judgment.

Despite that, Ely couldn\'t help but be amazed by her Mythical-tier holy artifact\'s might. Each could summon a fragment of heaven and earth\'s might, but this kind of power could only be drawn out sometimes since the cooldown per use was pretty long.

Ely checked her surroundings and spotted a few dying demons. "Rafaela, hunt the remaining ones and fully interrogate them. I will give them for your judgment to decide. Gabriella and the others had already arrived. Cooperate with them."

"Yes! I shall not leave a single demon escape." Rafaela was so excited as her blood was almost boiling. She dashed off to hunt down the remaining demons.

*Boom!*

Rafaela caused some great destruction like a raging behemoth. Gabriella and the other disciples joined the task and took care of everything.

The victims were sent to a nearby village with disposable instant teleportation artifact. The \'lucky\' demons that survived the disaster began to be interrogated in a place Ely couldn\'t see.

The divine phenomenon slowly died down.

Many parties of major forces were going to that location due to the previous calamity clouds and the divine light occurrence. They understood a Demon Deity was about to awaken but were confronted by a God-level being. The top-tier confrontation between apex powerhouses!

Ely then ordered her arficact to bring her down. The golden staircase dispersed, and she realized she was covered in a semi-transparent purple liquid. It was a bit sticky, like the egg\'s albumen. "Eww... I want to take a shower soon."

"My apologies for our late arrival, master. This disciple shall prepare a luxurious hot bath for you in a village near Lumina City. We can use teleport now if you please." Gabriella landed behind her master and knelt down respectfully.

Her awe and respect didn\'t diminish in the slightest, even though her master was currently in a somewhat sorry state. After all, she finally witnessed her master\'s incredible move again after such a long time.

\'Teleportation, how nice. I didn\'t ask Raf-chan to use that because I was deliberately stalling for time. You all can do your job and homework preparation well before I arrive. Who would have thought I was kidnapped to a major event on my first experience going far from the Sacred Mountain.\' Ely heaved a subtle sign in her mind.

"You came just in time, Gabriella. Tell me your report." Ely activated her outfit\'s special effect to cleanse her body from any foreign object or substance. But she still wanted to take a bath soon.

"These demons are members of a demonic cult called the Vroblaphy Cult. Their ancestor revival plan was thwarted, and the Demon Deity perished. The Heavenly Demon candidate reduced by one, thanks to you, master." Gabriella glanced at the crushed demon egg in the hole while reporting.

"That dark purple demon is still an embryo, but his wickedness is heavy. It might be the Heavenly Demon who is recovering. Are you ready to face the bigger and more terrible demon, Gabriella?" Ely grasped her hand behind her back.

The gentle breeze gently caressed Ely\'s long black hair, showing a lofty yet almighty impression before Gabriella\'s eyes.

"Yes, we have prepared everything for this, master. With you leading us, we fear nothing. We even dare against the entire world to uproot all Heavenly Demon seeds." Gabriella answered with determination.

\'E-eh? We\'ve found one, and we need to find another one. Be a good disciple and be satisfied with exterminating two demonic cults. Give those jobs to other righteous sects. Also, why do you want to drag me against the world?\' Ely broke out in cold sweat at the thought of her unfilial disciples causing havoc everywhere.

A few moments later, Rafaela and the other disciples gathered at a meeting spot. Ely and Gabriella came over for more information. Rafaela and the other disciples spared none of the demonic cult members alive.

"Holy Church probably also involved in this incident. Two defect priests and a rotten bishop... one of them possess the token of a member of the nobility from Lumina City." Rafaela reported with a hint of hatred for the church.

"Alright, it\'s time for us to go." Ely nodded slightly, then walked away.

She and her disciples had already secured the loot, and other precious things, including the demonic egg\'s remnants, for further research. They immediately left the vicinity shortly after.

The rumors about God\'s messengers descending from heaven spread from a particular village. The major forces came to where the divine light had descended, but they could find only an empty sacrificial place. There were also traces of demonic energy, divine light, and heavenly thunder.
