The moment Kent saw Paragon smile, he knew something was about to happen.
He hadn’t seen the battle from the start, so he couldn’t tell how much Paragon had to endure in order to get to where he is now.
However, knowing the battle lasted over 3 hours and that Paragon was bleeding severely, he could tell it was very chaotic.
This only made everything worse.
There is no telling what kind of danger he had faced; however, watching him smile told him something that even Kent never knew was possible for a person to go through.
’It seems he endured the past three hours out of necessity when he could have tried to kill these people.’ This doesn’t make any sense to Kent.
’If he had what it took to kill them, then why hasn’t he done that?’
The concept of toying with your opponent before killing them is not something Kent is friends with, so he can tell Paragon didn’t toy with his opponents.
This means that, even though he had the means to kill his opponents, he refused, suggesting that there is a much deeper meaning to it.
Kent soon figured out why Paragon had to do what he did. The rest of the course will e to him in due time.
’It seems he doesn’t think these four are the final boss. He is still expecting someone much stronger, and so overexerting himself to kill these losers will prove fatal when the real challenge es.’
Kent sighed and was forced back into bat, but he kept an eye on Paragon. Soon, when he saw a darkly clothed lady appear and merge with him. It was then that he understood where the smile came from.
’What a sneaky little brat. He is much more cunning than I am.’
Kent blocked a spear stabbing at his heart. ’Looks like I should bee more cunning and cruel when I go back. Just because the heavens like me in my universe doesn’t mean the gods will favor me too.’
If only Kent knew that there were dozens of gods waiting for him just because he killed a single tiger.
But for now, his focus was on killing more monarchs. To be able to form the second Blood Core gate, he must kill more and harvest more Blood Essence.
So keeping a part of his focus on Paragon, he continued to kill his way across the battlefield.

Meanwhile, Vexthra, who had decided to observe the battle between Paragon and the four remaining warriors, was instantly drawn to the darkly clad lady playing the zither...
’The Law of Death is rooted in this music. If I can copy even a single one of them, helping Kent when he reaches the Death Stage will be easy,’ Vexthra said as her focus, instead of being on Paragon, had now found its root on Maud, the Deathheart.
Soon, she began to see patterns as more notes were played.
"While this universe is messed up, when it es to how visible the laws are, they are much better than my universe. It is like the laws are loose and can be manipulated however they want.
If Kent could e back here when he reaches the Empyrean Stage to learn the laws, he would make progress much faster."
This discovery led her to turn away from Maud and begin watching Paragon...
"As expected, the laws aren’t having much hold on him. With this, if he grows much stronger, even before being an immortal, the laws will bee pletely useless when going against him."
"What a monster."
Of course, that was Vexthra, the goddess of hatred and resentment, talking. The real her saw the death of humans trying to save their world, and that broke her heart...
However, as a god, she knew everything had a cause and effect, so she knew those responsible would be held accountable.
After watching Paragon for a while, she turned back to Maud.
Although she can’t fight, she can find ways to help her man bee much stronger. Her sisters are doing the fighting.

"What is your name?" Lady Enzi asked a blue-haired beauty whose expression was calm, sweat trickling down her forehead as she held her spear firmly.
"I am Enzi, in case you are wondering.
The blue-haired lady looked at her and nodded. After all, just when she was on her last leg, this lady came to her aid.
"I am Asha, and these are my insect army."
"Cool. I have never seen an insect queen before."
Asha looked at Lady Enzi for a few seconds before giving her a polite smile, "Well, now you have, so I guess that should be cool, right?"
"You have no idea." The conversation was simple, but a lot was said.
Asha saw through Lady Enzi’s scheme, but knowing it was for a good cause, she feigned ignorance.
The truth is, Lady Enzi is scared of insects - terrified even.
She had a not-so-pleasant encounter with insects when she was young, so her fear of them is very deep. However, now it seems she has solved half her problem by fighting alongside insect soldiers.
The other half will be solved when she actually battles a swarm of insects.
"Well, happy chatting with you." Lady Enzi teleported through her glass domain and appeared on a different battlefield.
Asha sighed, "She is a weird one."
She turned back to her insect army and started giving them instructions. Soon, they dispersed to separate battlefields to help the warriors in dealing with the last remaining pest.

Velyra decided to fight beside her father and her tribesmen.
The Bloodvein Tribe is a warrior tribe. Just like the Asura in this universe, they are also created for battle. However, unlike the Asura who value battles more than anything, the Bloodvein Tribe is more about finding peace...
They serve the Mother of Killers, so they try to live up to her expectations. After all, the Mother of Killers was a daughter of war. She was born on the battlefield and died on the battlefield.
Of course, the idea that they wanted peace was also from the Mother of Killers. After her many battles, she sought peace, and she had it for a while before she picked up her spear again.
So they wanted nothing more than to bring peace to this world. Due to their resolve, a strange form of strength filled them as they fought the warriors.
They fought on the same battlefield as the vampires, so it was like neighbors fighting for a cause. They are, after all, blood users.
There is one other person on the battlefield beside them who caught Velyra’s attention, so when the battle relaxed a little, she approached her...
"Nice weapon," Velyra said, causing the dark-haired lady to look at her with a raised eyebrow.
"I know, red skin does make one stand out," Velyra said with a sigh.
"No, no... I wasn’t looking at you from that angle. I was just taken aback by how beautiful you look. If not for already being married, I would have already swept you off your feet. Who knew the red color would look this darn good on a lady?" the dark-haired beauty said with a smile.
"By the way, I am Eshira, but they mostly call me Princess Eshira."
"I am Velyra. Nice meeting you," Velyra said, also with a smile.
