A Necromancer Who Just Wants to Plant Trees

Chapter 1651: 452 Are you ready for the true Ascension?_5

“Is it just because I have a bit of a temper, a bit more strength, and am a bit reckless in my actions?”

“Clearly, I am the one who wanted to help you more…”

“Wuu wuu wuu…”

Matthew stretched out his other hand, gently stroking Dark Peggy’s head:

“Sorry, this was my oversight.”

“But you also know, I never wanted to dominate the world.”

...

“I just want to live well, preferably in peace and quiet.”

Dark Peggy pouted:

“That’s not something you can decide on your own.”

Matthew smiled faintly:

“But at least I can strive for it.”

“You’ll help me, right?”

Dark Peggy fell silent for a moment, then suddenly said:

“Bring her back.”

“The hundred-year term agreed upon previously hasn’t arrived yet; you only needed my power temporarily.”

“That Lord of the Thousand Transformer probably won’t dare to come near you again, so you can rest easy…”

“So, let’s continue to fulfill the contract.”

To everyone’s surprise, Matthew shook his head:

“She’ll come back.”

“But not now.”

“Right now… there’s a more important mission I need your help to complete.”

Dark Peggy looked up, puzzled.

Suddenly.

Matthew’s hands came together, enveloping her completely.

The next second.

All the black fire disappeared.

The figures of both also vanished in this spiritual space that seemed as if it had never existed.

…

“Meow~!”

In the Lost Paradise.

An abrupt cat’s meow rang out.

Tyraste opened his eyes, only to see a shiny-eyed little black cat beside Matthew’s thigh.

Matthew himself woke up from his slumber a few seconds later.

The two exchanged glances.

Tyraste let out a long sigh of relief:

“You’re back.”

Matthew stood up, then reached out to help the weakened Tyraste stand:

“Let’s go.”

“Everyone, come together.”

“One or two people can’t hold this authority.”

The pair walked over to a dirt-yellow scepter.

The other three, hearing this, eagerly came over as well.

Matthew and Tyraste looked at each other.

After confirming,

he held the little black cat in one arm and with the other, he firmly grasped the middle of the scepter.

That instant.

His body turned to a gold-plated color!

The entire person radiated a holy divine light, from the inside out!

The very next breath.

Tyraste also reached out to hold the scepter.

Soon after.

The other three stretched out their hands and grabbed the lower end of the scepter.

All five of their clothes began to billow and fly.

A surge of extremely abundant energy was baptizing their bodies, causing a transcendent sensation mixed with intense instinctual physical reactions!

“Ah…!”

Everyone was trying to control their chaotic emotional reflexes.

Matthew’s gaze was steady, feeling the power coming from the authority.

It can’t be wrong.

That’s the power of the Divine King!

…

“Notice: You have successfully entered the Lost Paradise, and received the baptism of the Divine King Authority!

Your Power of Domain has risen to demigod status!

You have gained the divine persona of a demigod and a series of characteristics bestowed by the Lost Paradise—

Demigod Venerable, Inheritor of the Lost Paradise, Elemental Immunity, Double Legendary Resistance, Star Realm Walking, Connection to the gods, Doubled Law Comprehension, Heavenly Knowledge, Heavenly Companions, Heir’s Blessing, Doubled Toughness…”

…

A wealth of information flashed before Matthew’s eyes.

He could feel himself being strengthened several times over!

But at the same time,

he also felt a deep sense of emptiness!

He opened his eyes.

Similarly, he saw a reflection of those feelings in the eyes of the other four.

Right after that,

everyone felt the space of Lost Paradise begin to shake violently.

There was a disorienting feeling of weightlessness!

“Divine Fire!”

The Traveler God Mo Song was the first to shout:

“We need the Divine Fire to formally ignite the Lost Paradise!”

Before the words had settled,

a composed voice responded:

“I’ll do it!”

Gold flames ignited on Tyraste’s body in an instant.

His physical form was devoured and dissolved by the overpowering fire, leaving behind only a glittering spirit body wrapped in Divine Fire.

The golden flames raced chaotically throughout the Lost Paradise.

Fires began to appear within everyone’s sight.

But the shaking of Lost Paradise continued!

“Not enough!”

Mo Song shouted.

The next second,

he violently threw a shriveled wineskin from his chest onto the ground.

The wineskin exploded on impact,

quickly spreading bursts of orange flames.

It was the Divine Fire of Retaliation stolen from the Heavenly Family Palace by the God of Travelers!

Following that,

flames of various colors also appeared on the Faded Dragon and the God Eater Queen.

Supported by the devout faith of the Forgotten Ones from the Ancient Lands,

the fires burning on them were no less potent than those of Mo Song.

In a mere instant,

the Lost Paradise was engulfed in the endless hues of soul fire.

Finally,

Matthew called out softly.

The little black cat obediently opened its mouth, spewing forth the fierce and surging Gordon’s Fire!

That black fire instantly ignited the entire Lost Paradise.

Under the burning of all kinds of Divine Fire,

the Lost Paradise became steady, no longer unstable, and instead took off with a rising momentum, flying towards even higher realms!

A tremendous upforce tore at the souls of the five,

an unprecedented pain tormented their will.

But joy was brimming on everyone’s faces!

They looked down,

and saw the buildings of the Ancient City of Klarafa shrinking rapidly, and even the entire plane of Blood-Drinking Mountain was getting further and further away from them, increasingly distant!

“Pfft!”

A silent light noise

signaled that the Lost Paradise, carrying the Divine Fire, had left the Blood-Drinking Mountain and ascended to a higher place within the Multiverse!

They looked up.
