‘Murder’, ‘assassination’, ‘slaughter’, and others could all be called ‘killing’.
In the age of the gods, the Prince of lies obtained most of the divine authority of killing and turned it into murder. With his divine authority of lies and illusion, he was able to kill many gods.
This god did not always rely on pure frontal assaults to win but used clever language and tricky schemes. Many of the weak gods were killed by him like this.
But although murder was powerful, it only worked better against the weak gods. It was less useful in the face of gods who were strong in combat. The part that Louie gained by coincidence was the part related to assassination!
In addition to the dream incarnation and the time incarnation, Louie had also created a killing incarnation, but he did not display it out in the open. It was like a poisonous snake lurking in the void, and once it moved, it would go in for the kill!
Louie used his dream incarnation to bait the Goddess of Magic into an opening. This combat-experienced god had truly fallen for it and attacked Louie’s dream incarnation. Mismisella understood the concept of not giving the enemy a chance to breathe, but this approach also placed her in danger.
Just when the Goddess of Magic turned her defense into the attack to kill Louie’s incarnation, her emotions, her divine power fluctuations, and her timing were all captured by the power of killing. The killing incarnation that had been lurking in the void finally revealed its fangs.
“Nothing is true; everything is permitted!”
Louie chanted and a pitch-black figure stabbed at the snow-white neck of the Goddess of Magic like an arrow.
Unlike many other gods who only had one genuine piece of divine equipment, Louie could turn every part of his body into a divine weapon. Although these divine weapons did not have complex characteristics like other gods’ divine equipment, Louie only needed them to be indestructible.
What’s more, Louie inscribed many runes on these weapons with divine power. If this was an online game, then there were 2-3 additional stats to the weapon.
Even an ordinary adult dragon’s teeth could become legendary weapons, let alone the teeth of the Dragon God. In this world, there was no material that could withstand the teeth of the Dragon God.
Louie could kill concepts, matter, life, gods, and everything he wanted!
Although there were many divine authorities in the world, there were only a few divine authorities that were made for pure combat. Although the divine authority of destruction was powerful, only a few people believed in absolute destruction as their faith.
On the other hand, this world was built on the idea of survival of the fittest, so no matter what race they were, everybody had to kill. War on the other hand was not only powerful in battle but also had a powerful following in this chaotic world.
A little bit of killing was gathered at the tip of the dragon tooth dagger while the incarnation moved silently. Even the gods would not be able to perceive the incarnation of killing as this was the essence of assassination.
Naturally, Louie’s divine authority of killing was incomplete. If he could, he would coat the entire blade with killing.
The domain of the Goddess of magic was shredded like paper. The dragon tooth dagger easily tore it apart and a viper-like figure came behind the Goddess of Magic. Only when the figure was close by did the Goddess perceive the arrival of danger.

However, at this distance, no matter what the Goddess of Magic did, she could not do anything but utter words of surprise, “Killing incarnation?!”
Her heart and soul shook. She did not expect Louie to have mastered the divine authority of killing.
What came to her mind first was not the divine authority of killing in Shae’s hand, but the one in the hands of the Prince of Lies who had already fallen.
“Not only the power of the Five-colored Dragon God but also a part of the divine authority of the Prince of Lies?!”
The Goddess of Magic was horrified. It was as if she heard a death knell ringing in her ears. The sound which came from an extremely distant place shook her soul, guiding her on the path towards death.
Killing was the process, death was the conclusion. At that time, he wanted to use these two divine authorities to attack the gods and rule the heavens. Unfortunately, these divine authorities were too powerful for him to master and eventually drove him to madness. He was deprived of death by the gods and did not recover.
TLN: Correction, Prince of Lies had the divine authority of death, not doom
The dragon tooth dagger soundlessly punctured the Goddess’ neck. Blood spilled out from her skin and quickly spread to turn into a blood-colored collar on the goddess.
“Off with your head!”
The voice of the incarnation of killing was cold and ruthless. There was no laughter or excitement, just a layer of calm.
“Splurt—-”
Louie grabbed the Goddess’ head with his left hand and twisted it off from her body. Divine energy dissipated from the body and the head as the Goddess of Magic died, while her headless body spouted blood like a fountain.
The headless body of the goddess trembled and began to shrink dramatically. In the blink of an eye, she turned into a cute child, dressed exactly like her previous form.
After being assassinated, the Goddess’ incarnation had almost fallen and only a little amount of divine energy remained. Her body could not maintain her normal state and became smaller and smaller to make sure that the incarnation did not disappear.
The child-like Goddess was full of shame and anger. Her distorted face flashed with pain.
Although the gods could make their incarnations not feel pain, the divine authority of killing could reverse this effect and bypass their efforts. There were also other divine authorities that could do this such as pain, sadism, and so on. Each of their attacks could make enemy gods feel a soul-crushing pressure.
‘The divine authority of killing was ultimately incomplete. If it were, the Goddess of Magic’s incarnation would have disappeared without leaving any traces behind.
However, Louie was calm. Now that the Goddess’s incarnation was only like this, it was impossible for her to retaliate.
On the other hand, after seeing that Louie was hiding an incarnation with a terrifying power like ‘kill’, the Mother Earth Goddess had already begun her retreat.
Her incarnation had already exchanged a few rounds with Louie’s time incarnation causing her to lose a lot of divine power, but she wasn’t injured. The gods had just ascended and this was their most important moment. She did not want her avatar to fall yet.
The Mother Earth Goddess was only good at overwhelming people with her godhood level, but in this situation where the godhood levels were similar, her divine authority could not win the battle.
‘I can’t continue fighting. Before reaching godhood of level 19, I can’t fight with this dragon… maybe I should obtain the divine authority of spring and winter first.’
The Mother Earth Goddess made an immediate decision and pulled back from Louie’s time incarnation. She had to wait until she reached a godhood of level 19 or obtained the divine authorities of spring and winter first. With the power of earth as defense and the arcane ability of the four seasons as offense, she could contend against Louie.
The gods of spring and winter weren’t strong. With her means, there was a great possibility of her obtaining them. This time, she stopped thinking of fighting Louie and first thought of obtaining the two divine authorities first.
The gods were such creatures. They never cared about time, knowing that their plans could span for as long as thousands of years. In the Goddess’ view, this was just an opening battle that could take tens of thousands of years to settle.
“Chauntea, you…”
Suddenly, Louie let out an astonished expression. He was so angry that he dropped all manner of respect.
Louie had been fighting the goddesses while observing the proceedings of the war. The war on the main continent had been going smoothly without any problems, but Louie’s divine perception changed and the battle was different from what he perceived. Alexia was in danger!
It was only then that Louie knew that the goddess had altered his perception with a skill of the gods. At this time, the Goddess of Earth had prepared to run away, so he released the alteration, allowing Louie to sense the change on the main continent and take this chance to escape.
Louie’s dream incarnation immediately dissipated and by using the [Heavenly Possession] he took control of Alexia on the main continent, allowing the Goddess of Earth to quickly retreat.
However, from Chauntea’s expression, it seemed that she was also a bit surprised at what was happening on the main continent.
At the same time, both the Goddess of Earth and Goddess of Magic could not believe how Louie had so much divine power. All other gods had poured all their divine power to create a single incarnation, but Louie had not only forced out three incarnations, each one was also quite powerful.
Because of their mistaken impression of Louie, both of them were forced into defeat this time.
The Goddess of Earth was still in a better position as her whole body was intact, but the Goddess of Magic had suffered a complete loss. For a period of time, she would not be able to create an incarnation. She would need time to accumulate divine power. With how she had just ascended, she had no incarnation to ensure the development of the church. Her step would be slowed down, which was a huge blow to her development.
‘Why is it only me who is miserable?!’
Seeing how Chauntea left, the Goddess of Magic wanted to complain but couldn’t. If she could maintain her current incarnation and restore it by just infusing divine power, she would not need to spend time to re-create a new incarnation, but obviously, Louie would not give her this chance.
Just as the Mother Earth Goddess retreated, Louie’s time incarnation again compressed time and blocked the Goddess of magic’s retreat with absolute speed. He cooperated with his killing incarnation to completely eliminate her.
But at this time, everything that was happening on the main continent was of greater concern to Louie.
