"Mad Pope!"

This was the thought that surfaced simultaneously in the minds of all Peeping Toms. No one expected Charles I to go to such insane lengths, sparing no expense to prevent Rafael from returning to the Divine Realm—even if it meant losing himself.

At this very moment, the "big shots" of the Extraordinary World once again recalled the Mad Knight from the Dark Era of the Old Continent who almost became "Charles I". Compared to him, everyone actually tended to believe that the figure before their eyes was even more insane.

In the real world, there are many cruel options for punishment.

But in the Extraordinary World, perhaps the most cruel punishment recognized is what Charles I is doing now.

He is erasing his own existence from the physical to the soul level.

"Among many paths to divinity, this is the easiest one, and also one that almost no Transcendents would choose."

"After becoming a Divine Containment Body, he is indistinguishable from a real 'God', except He has no soul, no self-will—only the last remaining 'command', or the will instilled by the 'Divine Source'."

"In other words, Charles I has completely vanished, replaced by a true, irresistible 'God of Light'."

Everyone gaped, watching Charles I, now purely a 'Light God', whose path, regardless of what anomalies or challenges blocking him, were all being cut down one by one.

Tang Qi looked at Him, as the murky black Blood Tears continuously dripped from the eyeballs at the tips of the Holy Thorn Tentacles.

Excruciating pain traveled up the thorns, reverberating inside Tang Qi's body. Enduring the risk of his head exploding, he continued to wield his Special Ability, trying to discern if any "weakness" still existed on the present Charles I.

But as the Blood Tears kept flowing, the same Information Fragments continuously exploded in his mind.

Unresolvable!

Unresolvable!

"No weaknesses?"

On the fourth floor of the Library Tower, although he had somewhat anticipated it, the receipt of the results still left his face undisguisably shocked.

Tang Qi recalled many of his past achievements, excluding entities like the segment of the Evil God's Intestines from Messer City that had been sealed for a long time; those involving Divine beings defeated by him, starting from the Immortal Earl and the First Generation Witch, to Leckter, Mother Goddess Seresi within the Ancient Maya Ruins.

Undoubtedly, these enemies had all touched the Realm of "God".

But without exception, they all had fatal weaknesses and were grasped by Tang Qi, which was why he earned the title of Evil God Slayer.

If it were any other Transcendent without Tang Qi's kind of Special Ability to 'Insight' into everything, calm approach and some quick wit, even if possessing greater power than he had when engaging in those events, they couldn't possibly defeat these terrifying Evil Gods.

Grasping weaknesses, even mortals can defeat gods!

This, too, is one of the iron laws of the Extraordinary World.

But the "trap" in this statement is, can mortals grasp the fatal weaknesses of gods? Even if they can grasp them, can they seize the moment to utilize them?

The answer is clear, no.

So far, only one "exception" exists on the Mysterious Side, and that is Tang Qi, who has done it by cheating.

But at this moment, his "cheater" has failed.

The Charles I he sees does not show any weaknesses to him.

Tang Qi could almost foresee, if he made a move now, the outcome wouldn't be better than that of the Holy Prophet.

A prophet possessing such level of the Truth Telling Skill, also died under the sword of Charles I.

Tang Qi, now the "weakest god", even if he used the Book of Nothingness, could he withstand a strike from Charles I who had become a "God" and wielded the Sword of Punishment? No doubt, Tang Qi admitted he couldn't block it.

Not just him, even the many arrangements left by the Holy Prophet on the Thorny Sky-reaching Tower couldn't withstand that being who released infinite Holy Light.

"Everything has its price."

As the big shots thought so in their hearts, behind Charles I.

The entire Bright Church, the devout Believers also seemed not to have expected that the Holy Father would make such a sacrifice for the "Master".

Inside the castle, the remnants of a large army, the headquarters in Jiatai City, and the headquarters on the Old Continent, the Chanting transmitted through the portal between heaven and earth suddenly paused for a moment.

The atmosphere, unexpectedly turned sorrowful.

A moment later, in the Church, Believers who completely believed in the "Light", simultaneously bowed their heads in respect to Charles I who had fully transformed into "Holy Light", then they began anew their Chanting, as robust, sky-reaching "Pillars of Holy Light" surged into the clouds.

Above the night skies of Origin Star, gaps of various sizes appeared, each gap leading to the Bright Kingdom within the "Mysterious".

The followers of the Light, too, went mad.

They began sacrificing themselves, using their souls as a medium for "Gospel Chanting", replicating the initial actions of Charles I, they were accelerating the Awakening of the Lord of Light, evidently, the time of the Lord of Light's Awakening wouldn't again be at the "Light Festival".

Perhaps, He will awake very soon.

At the same time, in the Thorny Sky-reaching Tower.

The selfless Charles I began to execute his last command, as he charged towards Rafael.

The luxurious Vestment robe he was wearing suddenly disintegrated, turning into a chain of gold; the heavy crown atop his head representing "Supreme Light Authority" twisted into a set of shackles; the red gloves on his hands and the gemstone rings above, transformed into blood-stained long nails...
