A kingdom that flourished marvelously that many envied its greatness.
"Do you regret the sins that you have committed?"
Citizens that had the power to imitate any living creature's biological ability simply by eating them allowed infinite possibilities.
"Do you regret the path you have chosen due to your never ending desire?"
However, a drunken sensation originating from their power sparked thoughts of "What if we eat all living creatures in the world?" which would later cause the ruination of their kingdom.
"I wonder, if you even had any thoughts about this matter? Worry not, for I, the apostle of the Goddess of Death, shall give out mercy by sending you all to her grace"
The falled royal, Maribeth Luckstellar walked on the red carpet made of blood as she slowly chases the King of Chimeras, who was responsible for the death of her family and the destruction of her beloved country.
"Your grace, the Goddess of Death, may I, your humble servant, request for the first and final time, with my life as a sacrifice; Will you allow me to use the forbidden spell on this sinner?"
[Do you truly wish to do this?]
"Yes, your grace"
[Do you promise not to regret it?]
"I will never regret it, your grace for this is the moment I dreamed of every single night. The moment I desire most"
[Then, as your master, I permit you to use it]
"Thank you... very much... your grace..."
Maribeth raised her sword and pierced her heart.
"Forbidden spell..."
"Please" The Chimera King who already had his vocal chords slashed said with magic, "Spare me..."
As the foolish king who desired the world looked at the woman in front of her.
"You wanted everything, right? Death is merely a part of it. And you will be able to experience it, forever"
Trees withered and the land immediately lost its life as a wave of death energy was exuded from the body of one human.
"One Hundred Nightmarish Deaths"
As the forbidden spell activated, the body and soul of the two merged together while absorbing the corpses of the nearby chimeras.
Trapping them in an eternal void, where they all, including Maribeth, experience the hundred most painful deaths over and over. Again and again.
Their souls now bounded to the authority of the Goddess of Death.
Once the hundred deaths are finished. It will repeat once more, more brutal than the last, infinitely and endlessly.
...
Soldiers of Lagnos arrived at the improvised port that I created and managed to set in quickly while half of the force along with Elmenz stayed behind in case some chimera past through.
"Listen to me, all of you. We will be attacking the inner most part of the enemy base. You job is to make a line around the coast to make sure no chimera passes through. Do you all understand my order?"
"We have understood your order, your benevolent grace!"
The soldiers replied in unison.
"Good. I will be seeing you lot later then"
After bidding my farewell, I rode Darius' back leaving Alice and Claude in case a powerful chimera appears.
- Master.
'Yes, Red?'
- Do you have any idea what is happening in this ruined kingdom?
'Not much. What I do know is that something disgusting is waiting for us'
After killing tens of thousands of chimeras, Darius' overall capability went up significantly allowing him to use his wings and gather energy for a dragon breath faster and more efficiently.
Unfortunately, Darius who is already a
If he was a chimeric dragon, he would have been able to copy other organisms biological capabilities.
"We have arrived, your grace"
"Do not go down. The stench of unknown down there is enough to kill you"
"But I do not sense anything, your grace"
"That is because it is one of the hundred nightmarish deaths. Death by Slow Intoxication and Addiction"
Completely odorless and colorless.
And it is untracable to the point a dragon who underwent training with Payne, heigthening his danger sense, cannot even sense the power of death emanating from it.
If I didn't knew about it beforehand, Darius would have died.
Whoever wrote this in the guidebook, hope you are doing well.
"
Booom!
With the attack I absorbed back in the war between Lagnos and the Land of Damnation, it hit the very center of the enemy's country, a watchtower.
"There it is. That shoggoth like being"
The watchtower that was not affected by my attack started to ooze out a black sludge, taking a similar form to a shoggoth.
"Master, what is that thing?"
"Unlike authority skills that deities bestow to their servants. Forbidden spells that utilizes one's divine master can bring out more power than a borrowed authority can show. Because of this, it became illegal for deities to let their servants to use such a spell. And that one over there is the result of using a forbidden spell by using a deity's power"
"You mean that thing is as old as this place?"
"Yes. If we get rid of that, the other chimeras will all die as well"
A hole formed at the center of the sludge.
"That's not good"
Knowing what would happen next, I trapped Darius in an isolate space using
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!"
A deafening sound that knocked out the soldiers of Lagnos who were in the coast, at least a hundred kilometers away, echoed through the entire western part of the world.
That day, some werebeasts fainted and some had seizures after hearing the sound while Bluemoon's elves were simply knocked out.
"Hmm, I think that's the downgraded version of Death by Sound, right. That is truly annoying"
It is possible for me to absorb sound but it would be a waste to use a limited skill on something I can't even use later on.
Undoing the barrier around Darius I ordered him to go back to the coast and make sure they were alright.
"Let me tell you something funny. A forbidden spell that breaks the world law can only be negated by a forbidden spell of equal level"
A small ice formed on top of the black sludge.
"After reading your story that was summarized into one paragraph, you have my respect, Maribeth. I respect your desire to ennact revenge. So I hope you will respect my desire to protect my children"
Instantaneously, the orb blasted and froze the world.
Death by Everlasting Frost.
All living beings in the world died as they all became statues of ice.
"Forbidden spell..."
Deities normally cannot use a forbidden spell that uses their existence. After all, you have to be in the mortal world to do such a thing.
"Absolute Null"
The world covered in ice returned to normal.
[You have broken one of the Ten Laws]
Every single being, including the deities, were speechless to the dream like sensation they experienced. As if waking up from a long dream that you cannot remember while sleeping at the same time.
[The Goddess of all Bitches will now be put to trial]
