He Became the Only Ally of the Abandoned Warrior

Lucy was sent flying, blood spilling as she soared through the air.

Linasien, who had consumed the Demon, struck Lucy, who was standing nearby.

Lucy instinctively raised her sword to block the blow, but the Hero held nothing in her hands.

Due to Abyss taking on a human form to hold back Tiana, Lucy was left defenseless.

Her ingrained habits betrayed her, and with this reckless mistake, the Hero took a hit to the torso and crashed to the ground.

The event happened so quickly that Lin and Arsil barely registered what had transpired.

“Lin!”

As soon as Arsil and Lavyn, who had been on guard, saw the Hero go flying, they immediately pulled Lin away to create distance.

Struggling to rise, Lucy called out for her sword.

“Abyss!”

She spat blood, summoning a temporary holy sword, but Abyss stood frozen, paralyzed by the shock of Tiana forsaking their vengeance and getting devoured.

“Damn it, get over here!”

Lucy cursed, only to suddenly stumble forward and collapse.

“Huh? Urgh!”

Dizzy and losing her balance, Lucy mumbled incoherently, blood trickling from her parted lips like water.

It was dark, clotted blood.

“Cough! Ugh…”

With a faint pain, Lucy began to retch, expelling black blood relentlessly.

“Ang.”

Linasien raised her finger.

“One down.”

Having absorbed both the Demon King and the Demon, Linasien had transformed.

The blood and disheveled hair were gone, and her beauty had returned, an alluring smile gracing her face.

But the multiple horns sprouting from her forehead and the dark, leathery wings on her back proved she was no longer human.

“Unlike that idiot Reinhold, who fought slowly, dealing with each one leisurely, I’m different.”

Thud! Linasien stomped on the ground.

From the spot where her foot landed, gray miasma spread across the ground in all directions, seeping like a spider’s web, turning the entire plaza gray.

However, the areas where the survivors and the goddess stood remained untouched.

“You just keep watching, goddess.”

Linasien scowled mockingly.
