Chapter 611: Chapter 611 The Goddess Shows Her True Side

“The world is what??”

“It’s a secret. If you destroy your soul magic, I will tell you,” the Goddess said with a cold gaze on her face.

“Why do you want me to remove my soul magic?” Lawrend asked and squinted his eyes at her.

“No one should attempt to tamper their own soul. As I said before, it’s not something I created. I only have a limited number of it,” the Goddess replied.

“I’m not even from this world. Why do you want me to remove my soul magic?”

Lawrend was very suspicious of the Goddess. She was weirdly forcing him to stop practicing magic using his soul. There should be something more to it.

“Are you sure you aren’t from this world?” the Goddess asked as a creepy smile formed on her face.

“…What do you mean?”

Lawrend took a step back. He was taken aback by her words.

“Remember, there were two Lawrends at some point in time. Why was that so?”

The Goddess took several steps forward and lifted his chin up. She leaned forward and eyed him closely.

“I remember him saying something about getting tricked… Don’t tell me you’re also tricking me!?”

Lawrend pushed her away and took a stance. He pointed his palms to her as he prepared to attack.

“I’m not tricking you. That Lawrend simply suffered an accident when he tried to take over your body.”

Lawrend analyzed her facial expression and didn’t see any clues about her lying. Even so, he kept his guard because she was a Goddess. She could be faking it for all he knows.

“So I’m the fake Lawrend..?”

Lawrend was confused about his identity after thinking about the other Lawrend. He won against that Lawrend and used him so Aezel could give birth to Veronica.

“No. You are the true Lawrend, but you also were not the true him,” the Goddess answered and looked away.

Her answer only confused Lawrend even more. But he finally saw an opportunity.

“Supernova!”

Lawrend skipped the chant and opted to use his imagination.

A spark of flames and a thin electric arc shot from his hand. These then quickly dispersed in front of him. It didn’t hit the Goddess at all.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“You dare!”

The Goddess turned around swiftly and glared at him.

“What? I can’t use my magic here!” Lawrend exclaimed.

His face fell, and he stared at the Goddess in trepidation. He underestimated the difference between their strength.

Lawrend thought quickly and remembered about his Elemental Eyes. He attempted to use it, but compared to what was supposed to happen, he only saw a blank space in front of him. It was as if she wasn’t there!

The Goddess rapidly walked toward Lawrend and grabbed his wrist. Lawrend tried to resist, but her hand felt as strong as the whole world.

“ARGHHHHH!!!”

A powerful and gentle energy entered into Lawrend’s wrist and forcefully erased the mana pathways he etched into his soul. This energy was a wolf disguised as a sheep. It wasn’t gentle as it appeared.

Everything that Lawrend experienced in this world flashed in his eyes. He remembered every magic he saw, thought, and studied. It was as if he was dying as she erased his mana pathways.

This energy was very aggressive. Every movement it did was calculated and perfect. It returned his soul to its initial state before he etched his mana pathways on it.

“Master!”

Suddenly, a familiar woman’s voice sounded from a distance. Lawrend endured the pain and stared in that direction. There wasn’t supposed to be anyone in this dark space, but a dot rapidly grew from far away.

It was a woman with long chestnut-colored hair and ample breasts. It was none other than Valentina! She rapidly flew in her maid uniform.

“O’ Tree, you are the cradle of the forest, each towering high, the earth gains strength with your countless fingers, capture my enemy for me, Root Lock!” Valentina chanted.

“You’re also–!”

The Goddess was shocked as she looked at Valentina.

“Free my Master!”

In this empty dark space, several strings of Plant Mana escaped from Valentina’s outstretched hand and formed seedlings. These seedlings then extended their roots and wrapped around the Goddess’ body.

The Goddess released Lawrend and grabbed ahold of a single root, which promptly turned to ash. She continued grabbing onto the roots one by one and turning them to ashes.

Lawrend flew to Valentina, and she embraced him.

“Are you okay!?”

“I’m fine. I can rework on those lost mana pathways,” Lawrend replied.

He could still patch them up. It only got till his arm. If it continued more, it would’ve been trickier.

“Master, let’s leave!” Valentina urged him.

“How?”

Lawrend had no idea how to leave. Every time he was in here, he was sent back. He was never given a chance to leave on his own.

“Think! Think about your body! Desire it!” Valentina shouted.

Lawrend took a deep breath and closed his eyes.

“Oh no, you’re not leaving!” the Goddess shouted.

Valentina’s plant magic was now gone. There were only bits of ashes left around the Goddess.

The Goddess appeared behind Lawrend and placed her palm on his back. Lawrend couldn’t help but open his eyes in surprise.

“Evil witch!” Valentina angrily shouted and swung her hand to the Goddess.

This was the first time Lawrend saw Valentina as angry as this. It was similar to her anger when she fought against West.

A powerful jet of plant mana shot forward to the Goddess. Lawrend sensed it and was shocked by the immense power it held. It was a power he was somewhat familiar with.

It was a Heaven Mage’s power! This was the leftover power Valentina was talking about. She never had the chance to use it.

She actually wanted to use it when he was fighting against the Blumin Emperor, but Lawrend stopped her.

The Goddess wasn’t prepared for the powerful attack. She was thrown back for at least several thousand kilometers from them.

Lawrend swiftly turned his head and barely saw the Goddess in the distance. There was no sign of wounds on her body.

Lawrend was horrified when he realized her body was undamaged. Although, he wondered why she wasn’t overpowering the two of them with her Goddess powers.
