The First Magic World War

Anne Brittany and Sophia Garanord stood atop the city walls, neither of them being of Sacred level, unable to join the battle, but both of their emotions were complex.

Sophia Garanord felt somewhat embarrassed, yet she harbored no regret at the bottom of her heart; instead, there was a light sense of relief.

Anne's emotions were far more complicated. She had even thought of kicking Sophia Garanord off the city walls.

Of course, she would never do such a thing, but the crazy idea just wouldn't go away!

During the great battle outside the city, Anne hadn't let the city's inhabitants join the fight. Because she knew that holding Black Phoenix City was more important to Charles, when Emilia loudly called out "Daddy," Anne really couldn't help but glance at the pretty little butt of Sophia Garanord, but she soon understood that the child couldn't possibly belong to the Strasbourg Rose.

After a while, Anne also figured out that the child couldn't possibly belong to Charles.

They had only been separated for a year, and Emilia was certainly not just one year old!

Anne thought to herself, "Mr. Meklen is only in his twenties, to have such a big little girl, he would have needed to have women when he was only fifteen or sixteen…"

"How could that be possible?"

"He must have adopted the child, and as a foster mother, I must treat her well!"

Then Anne saw Charles swing Emilia and kill a Sacred level being!

Anne couldn't help but say to Sophia Garanord, "Did you hear that little girl call out 'Daddy'?"

Sophia Garanord said indifferently, "That little thing is obviously an Evil God!"

"It's not about her calling daddy, the question is, who will she call mommy later!?"

Anne suddenly felt confident and said, "I will certainly be her foster mother."

If Charles were here, he would surely say, "Sixty portions of the Serpent of Destiny's joy, truly a bargain…"

Just for the sake of having Omibella, Gomodoro Tree Dapocirodo, King of the Giant Whales Ivonna, Great Sea Serpent Witch Su Ji, Amon, Emilia, Ysamiel next to him, these Evil Gods, would wish for Anne to always be favored by destiny, to have peace and prosperity for a lifetime, forever without trouble or disaster!

The Serpent of Destiny only took sixty portions of joy, the price was indeed quite fair.

If Charles knew the fate that awaited him soon, he would certainly have promised himself a portion, a mere sixty portions of joy for a lifetime of peace, a total steal.

Gareth squatted on the deck of the Emilia Vessel, his body enveloped in a mist of blood!

This vessel had been hidden in the void, and before long, chunks of Evil God flesh were thrown in one after another.

Gareth, unable to withstand the temptation, also considering it might be Emilia feeding him, had already devoured two chunks of flesh, his body surging with blood, vaguely close to breaking through another level!

Emilia was mischievously happy, grabbing with her little hands. The chunks of flesh she grasped in the void would vanish without trace, and she didn't even know Gareth was stealing them.

Charles bravely pursued, occasionally using the Infinite Mirror Realm, creating Magic Mirrors to shorten the distance between himself and Avesh.

Avesh at this point, no longer dared to continue fighting. He was already reaching his limit, and if he did not quickly release Arunreshanmosu, he would be assimilated by this Evil God.

Above the vast sea, the "waters" rising above the surface suddenly shifted course, heading deep into the ocean.

The delegates of the New World Conference scattered in their escape, and Mocher was forced to employ a thread of the Power of the Evil God, only then could he break free from the pursuit of Ysamiel.

However, the fleet besieging Black Phoenix City had few chances to flee and could only hastily raise the white flags, wisely choosing to surrender after hearing Charles's orders to take no prisoners and leave no survivors.

Though the battle was chaotic, it concluded with the top brass of the New World Conference escaping, less than a thousand in total. The Sacred-level forces of Black Phoenix City and Charles's followers pursued them until Charles broke through the body of Arunreshanmosu with the Emilia Vessel, and only then did they close in.

Charles shook his head and said, "Let's head back to Black Phoenix City first."

Emilia clung to Charles, unwilling to let go, and Charles did not ask her to get down. As everyone landed on the ramparts of Black Phoenix City, Anne was the first to rush over, embracing Charles and not forgetting to hand Emilia a plate of sweets.

Emilia, delighted with the candy, instantly hopped down from Charles's grasp.

Sophia Garanord saw Anne and Charles hugging and felt an ache in her heart. She gently took Emilia's small hand, preparing to find an opening to breakthrough but was immediately confronted with a gloomy voice in her mind, "Stay away from my father! You do not have the favor of the Serpent of Destiny."

Sophia Garanord let go in shock, and before she could stop herself, tears began to fall.

A fair, delicate hand held out a handkerchief to her, speaking tenderly, "Don't cry!"

"You are the Strasbourg Rose!"

"Be strong."

Sophia Garanord choked up. She wasn't weak; she had just been frightened by the Evil God.

She hadn't expected that Emilia, seemingly lively and cute, was actually lively and terrifying!

Anne happily said, "You've finally come back."

"Every time I thought of you, I wanted to cry. It was with everyone's help that we managed to hold Black Phoenix City. I couldn't do anything right."

Duchess Meisu whispered to her daughter, "You should learn from this! This Anne Brittany managed to step up when her fiancé's territory was in danger, leading a group to help and easily took over Charles Meklen's subordinates, gaining their support. She also decisively gave up all her lands, evacuated the people and supplies, and sent out calls for aid…"

Adossa said, "Anne Brittany is indeed remarkable."

Duchess Meisu said, "No, that's not all. Her most remarkable act was the moment she saw Charles, she turned into a docile skylark. The strong, courageous Duchess we saw these past few days... cut supply."

Adossa was surprised for a moment, then catching on, said, "Sophia Garanord didn't lose unjustly!"

Then she saw Menilman and added, "The senior Rose didn't lose unjustly either!"

Just then, a distant voice echoed behind them, "This princess feels quite wronged."

Only then did Adossa remember Princess May Guillaume. She glanced furtively at her mother, thinking, "You are still urging me to compete. Look at the strong competition; how could your daughter possibly win?"

Charles surveyed the heads at Black Phoenix City and suddenly wanted to make light of the mood, suggesting, "The weather is really nice today."

Anne, beaming, said, "Just now, Sophia Garanord mistakenly thought that your fleet was reinforcements from the New World, ready to meet their deaths. She asked me to pass on a message to you!"

Sophia Garanord suddenly became anxious…
