They both looked at Sarah in admiration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Power! This is power!' Varian admired how Sarah was able to change the situation by her power alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'll ask one by one.\" Sarah smiled and waved her hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The water hands pushed the men in black forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarah glanced back at her teammates and took a deep breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though she looked like she didn't care, her cold eyes said it all. She was furious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a snap, she removed the masks. As expected, the faces were of celebrities and officials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fake faces.

Their injuries increased manifold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To live was to truly suffer. They proved it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the dust cleared, Sarah coughed blood and collapsed onto her knees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unknown to her, Varian's hide out was also blown away, and he was moderately injured despite being a few hundred meters away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, instead of complaining, Varian sighed in relief and patted himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'I knew it.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dust filled the air and Varian could barely see a thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he heard footsteps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Weak. Unsteady. Yet heavy footsteps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No. There were two of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varian felt his heart stop for a moment when he realized the direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was towards Sarah.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Go or not go?'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, Sarah was experiencing one of the worst injuries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suicide bombing was unique to Shadow Order. So she didn't suspect Abyssals would to the same. They used that to their advantage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though she protected herself at the last moment, the distance was too close. The bomb was also far more dangerous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, almost all bones were broken, and her organs were working only because of her Controller physique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she was a normal Water Awakener, she'd be dead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though her water shield blocked most of the power, her survival was attributed to two things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her defense star treasure which was broken during the explosion. And her strong body thanks to being a Controller Level 6.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without either of these, she'd still die.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In fact, even if there was a slight negligence from her side, she'd have died.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Was... I their target all along?' Sarah felt shivers down her spine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why was the management not aware of this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was the third strongest cadet in one of the top five Academies of Human Federation!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could her information leak?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who could even have the authority?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more she tried to avoid, the clearer the answer became.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarah closed her eyes and exhaled in pain. The pain of knowing the truth overwhelmed her physical pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'A traitor at the very top of the pyramid.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Maybe they just wanted to eliminate competition. So they used Abyssals.' She tried to tell herself but she knew it was not true.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Witnessing the seamless cooperation between the Abyssals and humans, she was clear that they were not acting together for the first time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were long-term partners.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'These beasts... betraying their own race.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her pendant shone, and it stopped her bleeding. It was a 5 star treasure and helped her multiple times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She would be healed in a few hours, thanks to her Controller physique.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that every enemy was dead, she could at least rest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Click.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarah's ears perked up as she heard… footsteps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Is it Varian?' She tried to move her broken body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Click.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Click.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The footsteps got clearer and louder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'No. These footsteps are too heavy.' She felt powerless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In her 20 years of life, this would be her most vulnerable situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She glanced to the side and saw her teammates in the distance. They couldn't even move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She could only rely on herself. No one would help her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Except that one person…' Sarah thought back to the happiest time in her life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"K-keeek. D-ead.\" A hoarse voice sounded and Sarah turned to the side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A human walked towards her. His body was a mess. His internal organs, except his heart were crushed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only thing that kept him alive seemed to be a strange star treasure on his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarah identified him to be the Space Awakener.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'He teleported under guise of explosion...damn it.' She struggled to get up but couldn't.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her body was too injured for that. Even with the emergency healing from the pendant, she couldn't move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahaha. My name will be honored. Killing you will make fill my cause. Shadow Order will reign supreme!\" He laughed hoarsely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sword appeared in his arm. As he raised his arm, his arm just collapsed like a snapped branch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though he teleported and hid himself, he was also injured from the explosion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Argh\" He grimaced but his eyes were fixated on the injured Sarah. His gaze was fanatical as he raised the sword his other hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was about to swing i—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Creaak\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked down at his chest in disbelief as a water arrow lodged itself in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sarah collapsed on the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She spent most of her mana to shield herself from the fatal explosion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the last bit of mana, but it saved her life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Looks like I won.\" She smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, you didn't.\" A deep voice sounded and an Abyssal emerged behind her.\u003C\u002Fp>",1269,"2026-06-06T07:58:11.287Z",1,"novelbin.me","60ce1fa161c9bf93b2a6b2ecffd4c1e184ecd9a8b1ab921435570ca6e0266582","divine-path-system-chapter-67","divine-path-system-chapter-415",1773,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdivine-path-system-cover.jpg"]
