Demi-human Girls Completion Manual-Chapter 1202 - 124: Joy (Part 2)

However, in this seemingly hopeless search, Fisher suddenly caught a glimpse of something shimmering in the darkness out of the corner of his eye.

He paused slightly, then looked closely, only to see that the shimmering in the deeper darkness of the cavern appeared to be a crown flickering with a faint light!

"Helair!"

He gritted his teeth and pushed with all his strength toward the denser center of chaos, but halfway there, a sharp pain suddenly flooded through his soul.

Fisher gasped, instinctively raising the Fluid Sword into the darkness, only to find in shock that it had been corroded by chaos, leaving almost just the handle.

The mercurial blade tried to regenerate endlessly, but under the terrifying aura of chaos, any attempt was useless.

So, in this frenzied sea of darkness, Fisher stalled there, less than a hundred meters from the crown.

Yet at this distance, Fisher could vaguely see the situation at the crown’s position.

It was indeed Helair.

At this moment, the lower half of her body was completely engulfed by the darkness, and pitch-black lines were spreading incessantly over her body, indicating the relentless invasion of chaos on her being. Her body bore even more hideous and terrifying wounds.

A golden scar on her neck continued to bleed tainted by chaos; her left hand seemed petrified by some powerful force, utterly immobile, much like the situation with the elves outside, presumably the work of Pandora; and her body was alight with sparks, the primary cause of her critical injuries.

Already grievously wounded, she was half consumed by chaos. Her rank was not high compared to other Mythical Species, let alone in a chaotic outbreak even demigods feared greatly.

The glow of the crown on her head was extremely dim, like a candle flickering in the wind, on the verge of extinguishing, far worse than when Master Tao gravely wounded her on the Tree Continent.

"Helair!"

And as Fisher’s distant call rang out, the barely conscious Helair seemed to faintly hear his voice.

Struggling, she opened her eyes a little, like a window cracked open, through this narrow slit she strained to see the person outside,

"Fi...Fisher..."

"What’s happening here? Wait, I’m coming over..."

"No... don’t come over... I’ve been polluted by chaos..."

Helair coughed, her body dragged further down by the darkness, she groaned painfully as more chaos-black veins spread over her body.

She looked at Fisher in the distance, then, gritting her teeth with effort, lifted her right hand,

"Pandora... wants the Seal you entrusted me with... she... *coughs* knows your intent to use the Holy Grail... she betrayed God, wanting to use chaos’ power together with the Holy Grail and Weaver of Destiny to enter the Twentieth Rank, creating her Divine Realm, I couldn’t stop them... but... chaos spiraled out of control...

"I understand... you wish to use God’s power to escape Death... so... I seized the Holy Grail... God’s power remains..."

In her right hand was a black Holy Grail imbued with a remnant of formidable power, the faint energy left within was, under Helair’s strained force, turned into a demigod-level aura.

Like a key, the unyielding rule of Death chasing Fisher was upturned. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

For a long while, the Death pursuing Fisher finally faded away.

But this was all the remaining power in the Holy Grail could accomplish.

And as Helair used the last of her strength to urge the Holy Grail, her body’s radiance grew extremely dim once more, the little power resisting chaos vanished completely, in an instant, she began to slowly sink into the black sea.

The Holy Grail she held slipped lifelessly from her palm, dispersing, in that inevitable descent, she suddenly exhaled a deep breath, her slightly open eyes gradually closed.

Yet in the end, she still smiled at Fisher, murmuring regretfully,

"Fisher... no wonder... you didn’t see me in the future... it’s truly unfortunate..."

"It’s okay... Cupid’s arrow... remains..."

The next moment, before her words were finished, she, maintaining that final smile, slowly sank into the chaos.

The crown’s light was about to fade away, along with everything about the angel to be swallowed by chaos.

"Boom!"

The cave above began to collapse, the World Tree’s entire being burst into an intense brilliance akin to the sun, its radiance was as if there were nine suns, turning everything between heaven and earth into a blinding gold.

Judging by the dreadful aura, the World Tree was ready to destroy even Dragon Tail Island to curb the chaos’s spread.

The sky turned pale, while the depths below were shadowy, at this moment, in Fisher’s eyes, the world seemed only in shades of black and white.

But in Fisher’s distressed gaze, there was only the sight of Helair sinking ever deeper into the darkness.

Perhaps Cupid, who governs love, is not a powerful angel, yet in this perilous time, her power seemed so insignificant.
