chapter-533
Right before Yeon-woo returned to reality, the last of the Crawling Chaos' vestiges flashed through Yeon-woo's mind as he digested the otherworld god's holy power.
『Just a little…just a little more would've been enough!』
『To think he was asleep here…』
『But I finally know.』
『That was it.』『This human…so amusing…!』
Without his ego, the Crawling Chaos' mind was a mess. He was feeling disjointed emotions of regret, understanding, reluctance, and delight at the same time. As soon as the Dragon Heart balanced the holy power with magic power, the Crawling Chaos disappeared with these final words: 『If the opportunity arises, I might be able to see something even more amusing. Hahaha…!』

The battle at the holy territory was reaching its end.
Our. God.
Chaos. Has. Disappeared.
How.The otherworld gods, who could barely withstand the Ghost Giants, released shocked vestiges. They had been holding their ground because they believed the Crawling Chaos would save them and defeat their enemies. It didn't matter to them that the giants had been resurrected since the giants were only the Crawling Chaos' toys. The otherworld gods believed that the giants' fate wouldn't change, but this belief came crashing down around them.
Furthermore, this was Yeon-woo's holy territory, where "death" and "fight" dominated. When the energy that Crawling Chaos had been funneling to them disappeared, the strength of the otherworld gods plunged. At that moment, black-red lightning rained down from the sky.
Boom! The lightning passed through a monstrous, amphibious-looking creature and landed on the ground, dividing into dozens of bolts that spread out like a spiderweb.
Ah. Ah. Ah.
No.
This. Can't. Be.
The bolts swept away the otherworld gods, and they released their last vestiges before vanishing. Valdebich took care of the last ones before looking up to see Yeon-woo slowly descending. He roared, 『Our god has returned!』
Their god was victorious, and the Crawling Chaos was dead! The Ghost Giants all raised their weapons and cheered.
『Follow our god!』
Then, they changed direction and ran towards the traitors, who putting up their last struggle. It was time to end the war.

『How? Oh dear…!』
『The Crawling Chaos has been defeated…? Even if
Clatter. At Yeon-woo's command, the chains binding the traitors returned to emptiness, taking the hostages with them. Fear was apparent on their faces as they saw emptiness widening, but it was better than being terminated, and so they obeyed.
After the traitors had been sealed off, Yeon-woo turned to the rest of the envoys, who looked around warily, and his subordinates, who were prepared to act as soon as he gave the order.
Krakrakra! Just then, a breath of condensed hellfire descended on Yeon-woo's head with a pure killing intent. It was the fire that had burned the otherworld gods, but before it even reached Yeon-woo, Valdebich jumped forward and swung his sword, sweeping the fire away.
『Summer Queen! What is the meaning of this?!』 Valdebich was now dozens of meters in height. When he frowned, an intense magic power storm rose up, shaking the air. Above him, the Summer Queen was angrily flying in circles around them, flapping her massive red wings.
「Move, halfling. I have no interest in your or your master.」
『What?』It was a word that Valdebich hated, but of course, the arrogant Summer Queen didn't care.
「I have business with the traitor of our race who's standing next to you and your master.」 The Summer Queen was glaring directly at Kalatus, her face wrinkled in fury.
「It seems like I must go.」 Kalatus smiled dryly, lifting his gigantic body and turning to Yeon-woo. 「You must have many questions, but would you mind waiting a little longer? I'll return after speaking with that child.」
Yeon-woo nodded, and Kalatus thanked him before flapping his wings and launching into the sky.
「Let's go somewhere else, child. This isn't an appropriate place to have a discussion.」
「This is an appropriate place for your grave!」
Kalatus spoke to her with pity, but the Summer Queen spewed another Breath without listening. Kalatus avoided it easily and quickly left in order not to injure anyone else. The Summer Queen furiously chased after him.
Yeon-woo watched them disappear before he turned back to the envoys. "Then let's settle our debts, too."
