Nike forcefully came out of the temple as the body resisted.

"Everyone get out and block the arrows, not one rock could be damaged from the temple. Go now."

She ordered in a loud bellowing voice, which surprised the people a little bit, but they still went on with it and started following the orders.

The priestess in the air was shocked when she looked at her.

"Goddess, why are you outside? Was Grace saved?"

"My temple is in this state and you are talking about a stupid girl? Go and capture those two. I don't want anything to happen to my temple."

Her voice is hysterical and she even sounded a bit mad.

The priestess was dumbfounded.

At this moment, she understood why Silva wanted to keep this hidden from Nike. She might be a god-level person, but she is an unbelievably self-centered woman.

The man who served and worshipped her for his whole life begged her to save his daughter even at the expense of his lifespan and she is using that body to capture someone so that they wouldn't damage her temple.

The stupid temple which people built for her out of reverence.

This caused her to feel disgusted about herself for sacrificing everything to become a priestess in that temple.

"Goddess, Please Save grace. I will do anything to protect your temple."

"I don't care."

"But…"

"Get out and capture them. Otherwise, don't even think about leaving this planet anymore. I am the only way out for you guys from here. Otherwise, you will live and die here with the limitations placed on you."

The priestess was dumbfounded. She didn't know what to do. But at this moment, the golden glow over Silva which indicated her presence dimmed a bit and Silva seemed to have taken over the body for a second.

"I asked you to save my daughter, if you don't do it now, I will kill both of them."

"How dare you say to threaten me? Your place as a dog is to stay at my feet and lick them clean when I ask you to. I will make your daughter die and make you watch it."

"I told you to save my daughter. Otherwise, I swear that I would kill them both at any cost. Even if I have to destroy my body and die in the process. I will kill them both and let you suffer from the consequences."

Both of them argued as they tried their best to take control of the body for themselves.

The priestess looked at Silva with a complicated gaze.

Meanwhile, the troops already left the temple, while Sam and Arkiv left the spot.

The Ghouls and Wights are standing within the circle as the death energy will only be a nutrient to them. There they can fight without the fear of getting exhausted.

The feathered didn't enter the zone of the circle yet as they are afraid of what would happen. But the Wights and Ghouls that can shoot are not really worried about anything. They are shooting the spikes and cannons like they were playing a game.

Sam and Arkiv who escaped into the forest took some good positions and started doing their own thing.

Sam kicked the balls into the group while Arkiv is shooting them down.

The feathered are falling like birds that are being shot.

The feathered that fell into the circle is as good as dead and turned into undead becoming an addition to the circle.

The feathered now understood what kind of mistake they did by not dealing with Sam when they had a chance and letting him make this circle.

They now only waited for the order to retreat at the moment, but that order never came.

Priestess is busy by now as he started helping Silva to calm himself down.

Because by now due to the struggle between the goddess and him, his body is being damaged constantly, he is bleeding from his nose, ears and eyes as he struggled with his own body and tried to get back in.

Nike and him are struggling like crazy.

"Save my daughter. Save my daughter. Save my daughter."

This is the only thing coming out of his mouth as if he is possessed.

Priestess looked at the struggle and couldn't help but feel a sense of heartache.

She ran back after him to look at Grace who is still being burned by the grey flames.

"How dare you defy me? I will make you watch your daughter die and I will condemn your branch of the race to eternal damnation. I will place the new rules on this world. I will make you die if you cultivate past Pre-transcendent and I will torture your soul if you don't cultivate at all.

I will make all of you die miserable deaths."

Nike yelled as she turned around and stabbed Priestess in the abdomen with her palm.

"You will not give them orders to retreat and let them die in their hands. That is the price for your branch for not performing my task properly."

"Get out of my head." At this moment, Silva's consciousness tried too much and the golden light suddenly started dimming rapidly and soon it disappeared as the last streak of golden light went back into the statue.

Silva raised his hands a wind blade stuck the statue and broke it down.

With a wave of his hand a huge windstorm came and ravaged everything within the line of his sight and started destroying all the statues and carvings of the Goddess.

Even the main statue of the temple is destroyed.

He finally knelt down on the ground as he spat a mouthful of blood and looked at his daughter weakly.

Nike did a number on his body and mind breaking everything.

He started weeping as he looked at his daughter. Then the sorrow led to anger which was directed at the Goddess, Sam, himself and once again back to the goddess.

He wants to save his daughter so badly, but he couldn't.

He looked at Priestess and said, please save my daughter. That is the only thing he muttered as he lost into daze as he looked at his daughter once again.

Priestess felt heartbroken as she looked at his lifeless sorrowful eyes and thought of ways to help.

She crawled to the edge of the pool and sucked in a mouthful of water to heal her injury a bit and slowly pushed Silva into the pool so that he could be healed a bit.

Then she walked out and looked at the whole scenario which ravaged the majestic city into a pile of rubble and corpses.

She flew into the air and yelled.

"All feathered, retreat. This is the end of the war. Retreat."

All of the feathered felt like they have new life injected into them as they retreated back to the temple.

Priestess whose wounds are still lethal, needs at least a week in the Golden pool to get fully healed.

But she doesn't have that luxury of time at that moment. She looked towards the forest and yelled.

"Sam and Arkiv, please come out. I have a deal to talk to you."

Sam and Arkiv came out and stood in the safe spots of the formation once again.

"I like making deals. Now does this deal include the weapon fragment that belongs to your city? Then I would like it even more and there is a great probability that this deal will go through."

"Yes, I will give the weapon fragment, as long you do some things for me."

"Please do tell."

"Come with me to the temple first."

"I am sorry. I am not going to enter the temple that has an extreme defensive measures."

"There is no need for you to worry."

"I am sorry. I don't have a reason to trust you."

Priestess gritted her teeth, but she knew that it was to be expected from him given how they are at odds until now, she took out a sword and swung it at the temple.

The sword ray streaked through the temple and the main entrance collapse leaving a huge gaping hole.

"The temple has collapsed, the statue that was the core of the defensive measures, you don't have to worry."

Sam was a bit surprised, but he still felt skeptical. He cannot trust them that easily.

She became a bit frustrated and started swinging her sword and the temple collapsed at some walls.

"Please come with me. I don't have any motivation to hurt you."

She is almost sobbing.

Sam looked at her intently and then only noticed the wound.

The wound is so severe and the bleeding barely stopped. Something serious happened.

Sam decided to go in, but he got ready with the dimensional drifter.

When they entered the temple, Sam really didn't feel any threat from the temple walls, all the walls and the statues are destroyed.

She led him to the golden pool room and asked.

"Save her life and I will give you the weapon fragment."
