Chapter 267 -267-Evelyn, It’s Time to Reveal Your True Power
Five years ago, in the human Gran City-State,
Evelyn was still just an ordinary student who had not yet awakened a class.
What had once been a fairly happy life came to an end because of her mother’s sudden case of Necrosis Disease.
Necrosis Disease was a new illness that had appeared after the game invaded reality. According to expert research, it seemed to be a common side effect triggered by the game’s incursion into the real world.
As long as one received treatment from a healing-type awakener, it could be cured.
But the cost of that treatment was a full 20,000 gold coins!
Although for the present-day Evelyn and Caelan, 20,000 gold coins was not even enough to cover the cost of a single meal,
for Evelyn’s family back then, 20,000 gold coins was an enormous sum they might not have been able to save even after a lifetime of hard work.
In the end, there were no surprises.
Evelyn’s mother died in agony.
From that day on, Evelyn seemed to become a completely different person. She studied harder, trained harder, and pushed herself without mercy, until she finally completed the awakening ritual and successfully awakened her own class.
...
Abyssal Great Rift
Following the intelligence provided by Supreme Staff, Evelyn arrived at the deepest part of the rift.
At this moment, she understood one thing very clearly:
between herself and these members of the demon race, the time had come for a final reckoning.
Once they truly opened the warehouse and took all of the Fragments of History, there would be no room left for reconciliation between the two sides.
So before taking action, they had to make every possible preparation.
Ideally, they would completely wipe out this batch of demons first, and only then take the Fragments of History. That way, the impact on the human race as a whole would not be too severe.
According to Evelyn’s understanding, once her mirror image was created, it would make choices completely opposite to her own.
If that mirror image chose to cooperate with the demon race, then Evelyn would end up caught in a pincer attack from both front and rear.
Because of that, the plan Evelyn and Caelan had devised was simple:
strike first.
As Evelyn advanced, she quickly reached the deepest part of the great rift.
This location was extremely well hidden. In fact, even most members of the demon race did not know there was a massive structure here.
Evelyn swept the area with her mind power, and very quickly discovered that a large number of demon race troops were stationed here!
At a glance, there were at least tens of thousands of them.
Leading them was a member of the Mind Demon race, and also a trusted subordinate of Mind Demon King Shaki.
The moment Evelyn appeared, he immediately recognized her identity.
"Damned human! I didn’t expect you would actually dare come here!"
The Mind Demon general snorted coldly, though a trace of smugness flickered in his eyes.
In truth, ever since the two sides had completely fallen out yesterday, Mind Demon King Shaki had already issued orders to strengthen the defenses around the warehouse.
And this Mind Demon general had only been deployed to the warehouse last night.
At that moment, the tens of thousands of elite demon race soldiers all looked up toward Evelyn in the sky.
Every single one of them had awakened a class. It could be said that they were the most elite army under Mind Demon King Shaki’s command!
To these soldiers, Evelyn was a true devil.
Her resistance was nothing less than smashing their rice bowls.
If not for the tireless labor of the Orefiends, how could they possibly be living such comfortable lives now?
Every day, all they had to do was attend revelries, empty their minds, and still live in luxury!
"All units, hear my command—kill the human heretic!!"
With a single order from the Mind Demon general, the tens of thousands of elite demon race warriors launched their attack on Evelyn!
Faced with such a scene, Evelyn did not panic in the slightest.
Though she stood alone against ten thousand, Evelyn had that much confidence.
As the inheritor of the Chosen One, she was often overshadowed by the brilliance of Caelan, who was simply too outstanding.
But one must not forget—
Evelyn was not only the inheritor of the Chosen One, she had also inherited the immensely powerful Supreme Staff!
The next moment, the Evelyn floating in midair
suddenly released a surge of overwhelming energy from her entire body.
And the Supreme Staff in her hand radiated a dazzling brilliance beyond compare.
At the same time, on the surface of the Supreme Staff, it seemed as though strips of luminous veil-like bindings wrapped around it were being continuously undone.
And as those glowing bands fell away one after another, the light emitted by the Supreme Staff grew ever more brilliant!
Even Caelan had never known that the power Supreme Staff had displayed in the past had not been its complete true form, but rather a version restrained by certain limitations.
Only at this very moment was Supreme Staff truly operating at full power!
Now, Evelyn had revealed her strongest form.
Suspended in the air, she unfurled a pair of wings behind her—wings drawn entirely from magical energy!
At this moment, Evelyn was like a goddess of magic, proudly looking down upon the demon race below.
"Now, you may die."
"In my name—[Stellar Judgement]!"
Endless magical energy poured continuously into the Mana Ore gemstone at the tip of the Supreme Staff.
As the energy gathered, it finally reached a critical point, and the Mana Ore gemstone reflected a deep blue beam straight into the sky!
The brightness of that beam illuminated the entire Abyssal Great Rift almost instantly.
In the next moment, the stars in the sky seemed to establish some kind of resonance with the Supreme Staff.
In the blink of an eye—
the stars fell.
And even more terrifyingly, those stars had all been enhanced by magic, multiplying their destructive power several times over!
The demon race soldiers had originally assumed that the descent of the stars would take some time, and that they would be able to retreat calmly.
But the reality was that the moment they saw the stars falling, everything was already over.
In just half a second, the overwhelming shower of stars slammed down upon the demon race soldiers. In the next instant, their bodies abruptly collapsed and disintegrated, and almost simultaneously, they turned into dust—just like the Orefiends in the altar.
The only difference was that these demon race soldiers did not even leave behind a core.
Once they died, they died completely.
After witnessing this scene, the Mind Demon general’s face turned pale.
He had expected the human awakeners to be very powerful. He had even prepared himself to pay a terrible price, perhaps even dying on the battlefield.
But what he had never imagined
was that Evelyn would be this powerful—
so powerful that she had killed all the demon soldiers with a single skill!
Was this really something an awakener could do?
Had humanity already become this strong??
Involuntarily, the Mind Demon general recalled the Fragments of History he had once seen.
In the previous era, there had also seemed to be a mighty God of Magic who had swept across the entire demon race, nearly annihilating them from existence.
At the same time, Evelyn’s voice rang through the great rift once more:
"In my name, gather the Sword of Stellar Judgement... and execute the guilty..."
