Chapter 661
Given the chaos being unleashed, it would not be surprising if Davey was causing an international controversy. Countless people were killed in a sudden attack by the Malicious Spirit. On top of that, Davey was also unleashing a torrent of sword strikes, as if severing a massive bridge in half with a sword was not enough. From a simple military perspective, the efficiency and firepower were terrifying. Yet, no one at the moment could recognize it. Perhaps only after a long time had gone by and only traces remained would the Earth buzz with speculations and opinions about what had occurred to completely demolish a massive bridge.
Under the starry sky, a cool night breeze swept over the majestic palace in the Middle East while a blue figure appeared, waving one hand.
Woosh...
An intangible force flowed from the being’s fingertip and began to engulf the surroundings. It was as if a blue aurora was spreading in a condensed form. However...
Crack!!!
Another figure appeared, scattering the being's power with a simple swing of the hand.
"That's enough."
It was a short and chilly voice.
"..."
The figure was a petite girl with blue hair, casting lights like the Milky Way across the night sky. As she floated in the air, she lifted her head and opened her eyes slightly. Meanwhile, the blue presence moved at a slow pace under her frosty gaze. The girl, emanating a chilling air, started spinning the ring above her head faster and enlarging it.
Thud!!!
In response, the blue being unleashed its power on her.
[A fragment of divine authority fallen to an unworthy land dares to oppose.]
A child's voice flowed from the blue figure. It sounded mesmerizing, yet the girl nonchalantly ignored it. She gradually approached, and when the blue figure was within range, she reached out her hand, grasped the figure's neck and arm, and tore them apart.
Crack!! Zzzt!!!
With a harrowing sound, the figure was ripped apart.
"Whatever you do, the predetermined outcome will not change. Neither for her nor for me. Your interference is deemed unnecessary from this point,” the girl warned softly yet firmly.
The blue being then shattered into pieces.
[O traitor...]
"Your plans end here."
Following those words, the blue being vanished, and the girl with blue hair quietly looked up at the sky and waved her hand.
Boom!!!
Just then, the blue being's power that enveloped the Earth began to warp, initiating vast changes. The beings that defied all transcendent powers existing on Earth slowly got weakened, and the laws corrupted by the Malicious Spirits began to run rampant, distorting and altering everything.
"The promise will surely be kept," she muttered before closing her eyes and vanishing completely.
Where she disappeared, only bluish particles remained, fluttering in the empty air.

In the midst of the bombardment of the energy blades, the being summoned by the Malicious Spirit attempted to disperse in an attempt to escape from Davey. But Davey had no intention of letting them off with any tricks. Even though Caldeiras had left Davey’s hand to join the energy swords in the air, Davey saw no need to call Caldeiras back to him and stop the rain of energy swords.
What he did instead was pull out a simple metal knuckle from the Pocket Plane. He then slipped it into his hand, took a breath, and slowly lifted his left foot.
Thump!!!
And then, as if taking a step forward, Davey surged downward.
Boom!!!
A loud sound rattled the entire area, and for a split second, everything, including all other noises, stopped. Rock fragments propelled by the shockwave hung in midair, frozen and motionless.
A tremendous blast silenced everything, smashing the Malicious Spirit to the ground. Not only that, it also created a cloud of dust tens of meters high, driving the Malicious Spirit into the ground and eventually plunging him into the cold depths of the Han River.
“Cough! Choke! Ack!”
Struggling to regain composure, the Malicious Spirit lifted his head. He then saw Davey, floating against the moon in the sky, poised to strike.
“Prepare. Another hit is coming."
Along with that chilling voice, the metallic knuckles in Davey's hand finally gave in to the pressure and completely shattered.
‘This is dangerous.’
Realizing this instinctively, the Malicious Spirit took a desperate gamble.
Boom!!!!!
He unlocked an incomplete sealing array.
Woosh!!!
Beams of light turned into tendrils that wrapped around Davey. They then started to drain his power, as if feasting on it.
“Ugh... You’re making me work for it!!”
The Malicious Spirit, grimacing, tore apart the remaining pieces of his tattered suit and rose into the air.
Woosh!!!
Simultaneously, the other beings rushed at Davey, bounding him like ropes, and many of them sacrificed themselves just to bind a single figure.
Now it was perfect. Davey could no longer escape. Or so they thought.
Because why did Davey look too serene?
“It’s usual.”
“What?”
The moment the Malicious Spirit frowned at Davey’s calm voice, it was then that he saw it.
A part of the sealing array that enveloped Davey began to creak.
Unless Neltarid's will descended to help Davey, breaking free was utterly impossible.
“Nelt... Neltarid... Oh Neltarid! Why do you forsake us?!” the Malicious Spirit desperately cried, and it echoed throughout the area.
Boom!!!
As soon as the array binding Davey completely shattered, Davey plunged down along with the Malicious Spirit like a flash of lightning.
“To ask me that is futile.”
A scarlet beam of light descended like the staff of a god, driving the water of the Han River away over hundreds of meters, and the water split like Moses' miracle.
And from the dry riverbed, the Malicious Spirit gasped for air as he looked up at Davey.
“Remember, the least reliable thing in this world is a god.”
Davey offered a faint smile after hearing these words.
“I know. There’s no need to tell me.”
The water of the Han River, as if rewinding time, then began to flow back into its course.
