Chapter 160 — Part 1

Diadora looked down on Bryud, who covets the power of the Leyline without limit, as if his desire for it were a bottomless pit, turning her contempt and anger-filled rainbow colored eyes toward him while covered in rainbow colored roses.

Diadora’s eyes were tinted with the attribute of the Ancient Celestial Dragon, and also with anger over her sweetest honeymoon being interrupted, but surprisingly, there was relatively little hatred.

Although she felt scorn toward Bryud for being a huge idiot who did something that he can never take back, a part of her couldn’t help but sympathize with him for giving all he could for the sake of his love.

「I want to spend a sweet time on this earth for a long time to come, so it’ll be troublesome if my time ends here. Things are going to get pretty violent, but I’ll clean this up quickly. So until then, please wait here」

Diadora, together with Dran, who didn’t show even a fragment of concern, waved her left hand at Edward and the others, as they were still trying to process Diadora’s transformation in their minds.

Her movement looked like she felt very refreshed. She looked so carefree, it was like she was just going out for a short walk.

After that, Diadora’s whole body was enveloped in a pure white, a mysterious rainbow, and a bewitching black as she danced to the flow of the Leyline before her eyes, which looked like a giant flowing river of blood to her.

Lynette posed a question to Dran in slight confusion, as it was hard to believe that she was about to deal with a monster that is supposed to devour the lives of this planet. The excitement over Dran and Diadora kissing in front of everyone had already subsided.

「She already holds power beyond that of a standard flower spirit, but now she possesses something else.

I cannot measure how much power that woman holds. Her, and also you; exactly what kind of people are you two?」

A spark of extremely strong curiosity flashed in not just Lynette’s eyes, but also in Yao’s, and when Dran noticed their gazes, he just mischievously gave them a misleading answer.

「I’m just a tourist who is also acquainted with the Professor. The same goes for her. It’s just that we’ve been through a lot more than a regular human or flower spirit would have」

「I cannot imagine what kind of lives you must have led until now」

Lynette decided that she probably wouldn’t be told any more details, so she did not pursue the matter further.

Besides, the current situation isn’t one where they could exchange conversation leisurely anyway.

Bryud has fused with the Leyline, and was drawing in other Leylines one after another, which would end up causing harm to the life of this planet.

Probably due to the effect of his madness, the Leyline with Bryud at its center was gradually turning into a reddish black color, and with just a single touch, it would be consumed by not just the life of the planet, but also Bryud’s madness too.

At the sight of the poison of a single human’s love spreading across the huge planet, Diadora snorted in contempt, expressing her irritation beautifully.

Diadora interfered with the force of gravity just before she landed, landing softly and lightly on the swelling reddish black mass, and then she crossed her arms as she glared arrogantly at Bryud in front of her.

The surrounding area was enveloped in the reddish black light of the Leyline, creating an illusion as if they had just entered the blood vessels of some giant creature.

The eternal earth, the endless seas, and the unseen skies are all just a part of this planet. Humans are just a small, small element within that, nothing more than a speck.

Bryud, who has fused with all the life of this planet, including the heavens, earth and seas, has become an incarnation of such immense power, that the word “extraordinary” is not enough to describe it.

The breath of the planet is a raging storm that blows violently and mows down everything.

Planetary tremors are the great earthquakes that carve cracks in the earth that lead down to dark abysses, destroying whole countries in the process.

The great tsunamis that reach up to the heavens and swallow up the earth are simply the stirrings of the planet.

All of the natural phenomena that so easily affect the life and death of all things that live on this earth, are just things that this planet does unconsciously, nothing more than incidental events born from the planet’s every slightest movement.

In the face of Bryud, foolishly comparing himself to the power of the existence of a whole planet, Diadora, who was just a Black Rose spirit and not the World Tree Yggdrasil, did not feel even a single shred of fear.

From the madness of love that contaminates the mind, and in the midst of the enormous life force that can destroy the body, Diadora remained unaffected.

The magic of the Ancient Celestial Dragon and the Spirit of the Black Rose emanated from Diadora’s graceful body, and it blocked off any and all influences from the Leyline.

「So this is the power of this planet. Hmm」

That’s right, Diadora was feeling the pressure of the planet all over her body, but she was also thinking, “Is that all you’ve got?”

When she had kissed Dran, sucking his power as if she were devouring him, Dran had noticed her intentions and gave her his magic as an Ancient Celestial Dragon, but thanks to this magic, Diadora’s spirituality itself was now dramatically improved.

Diadora, in the form of a Black Rose Spirit while at the same time in the state of the Ancient Celestial Dragon, has gained the ability to perceive not only through any distance, but also transcending through dimensional walls and the flow of time.

She can even perceive parallel worlds, worlds that have branched off into infinite possibilities, as well as all phenomena in the zeroth dimension, the first dimension, and tens to hundreds more dimensions too. But on top of that, she is not simply at the mercy of that information.

Now that it has come to this, she understood. Normally, the beings that exist on this earth discover and solve the rules and principles of the world, and apply them to create the phenomena that they desire to see, in the form of magic.

But with a being like Dran, he does not just interfere with the laws of this world, he overwrites the rules themselves to suit his own desires.

The beings of this earth can only follow in accordance with the laws of this world, while Dran gives meaning itself to those laws.

Diadora understood just how lucky she was that the person she had fallen in love with was so out of the ordinary, while still being no different in mind from anyone else on earth.

That is why, in the face of the pressure from Bryud in front of her, Diadora could only think that it was no big deal, and at the same time, she feared herself.

「This is bad. Just by borrowing Dran’s power, my heart feels like it will get bigger.

Is it because it feels like I am enveloped in Dran’s embrace, while also feeling like Dran is within me? This power is just something I borrowed from Dran, so it would be terrible to misunderstand it as my own power」

Right now, Diadora was capable of exerting her power on not just this planet, but even the whole universe, so she was strictly restraining herself so as not to get intoxicated on that power, and then she took one step closer toward Bryud.

The contamination from Bryud was rapidly spreading through the Leyline, and considering the time and effort it would take to remove that contamination, the sooner Bryud is dealt with, the better, unmistakably.

The swell of the Leyline that was flung toward Diadora was blown away just before it could touch her, by a phosphorescent, rainbow colored light, and not even a single drop touched her.

Bryud protected strands of Lielle’s hair in his two hands, holding it within his body as if it were his own heart, as he looked toward Diadora.

Bryud had no sanity left, but since Diadora had been deeply involved in everything starting from the invasion of the facility, the destruction of the defensive weapons to the defeat of the artificial superhumans and the subjugation of Lynette, he seemed to recognize that the target for his hostility should be her.

「Dran should be the only one to look at me with such a feverish gaze. I don’t need someone like you. Stop polluting this planet right away. The damage is only increasing」

Diadora spoke to Bryud with a few words of advice, but it was doubtful that the Bryud in question even had enough intelligence left to understand language anymore.

「Lieeeeeeeelle!」

What came out of Bryud’s mouth was the name of his late, beloved woman.

As far as the eye can see, the Leyline has already fused with Bryud’s flesh and blood, and as his emotions ran rampant, he attacked her with an enormous amount of power in an attempt to swallow her up and destroy her.

Unconcerned about the waves of the Leyline closing in around her from all directions, Diadora let out a deep sigh.
