Lines of golden light were woven eerily, outlining a peculiar symbol right before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His movements were extremely fast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within a mere moment, the symbol had fully taken shape and form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, ignoring the astonished gazes of everyone around him, the Commander threw it above his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The clearing outside the inheritance palace was quickly plunged into the symbol’s golden light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone, including Assira and Alpha, was left stunned, unable to react.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Similar-looking symbols emerged from beneath their skin and resonated with the one hovering above them, as if it were a Queen Bee resonating with its subjects.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their expressions changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They tried to struggle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, before long, they discovered that they had fully lost control over their bodies. Only their consciousness remained, trapped in a shell they could no longer control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The same was not only true for the two women, but also for the Commander’s own subordinates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along this clearing, the only person who had remained intact was none other than the Commander himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man stared silently as several threads extended from the symbol and drilled into everyone’s bodies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he sensed the growing connection between these individuals and him, a faint smile couldn’t help but creep up his stern face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although things had not gone exactly as expected, the current outcome was still acceptable for the Universe Chamber of Commerce.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only would the organization obtain two True Spirit Greater Devils with great potential, but also the golden rewards that these women had managed to obtain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Commander was not proud.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have been easily controlled by this symbol.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, the Commander grew even more excited. \"Winning over\" two such Devils would greatly please the organization’s higher-ups.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coupled with the treasures he had managed to bring out, there was a high chance that he would be rewarded handsomely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obtaining the opportunity to become an Archdevil was not necessarily a mere dream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Commander daydreamed for a moment, but he was obviously not stupid to have been trusted with such a mission.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, he quickly recovered and did not get lost in the temporary victory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He continued manipulating the symbol above his head, which in turn, allowed him to control the people around him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just when he thought that everything was done and over, though, his expression suddenly changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The inheritance palace in the distance shook, and the entrance opened wide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another woman walked out from within, one whom the Commander instantly recognized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s you!\", the man couldn’t help but exclaim, his eyes reflecting the outline of the Zerg Queen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dark-haired woman did not respond to his call.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without any emotion on her face, she moved her hands, just as the Commander had done before, and outlined a peculiar symbol, which soon shot above her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two symbols quickly clashed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A powerful aura emanated from both of them, as tentacles grew out and wrestled over the control of the surrounding Greater Devils.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s true! You’ve really passed through the three trials!\", the Commander stated, as he tried his best to compete against her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Neither of the two parties moved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They both manipulated the authority given to them by the inheritance palace, allowing them to control the other challengers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was no longer a fight between Devils and Zerg, but a battle to decide who would have the final say over the inheritance palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or at least, this was what the Commander and the Zerg Queen were led to believe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, unbeknownst to them, a pair of crimson eyes suddenly opened within an otherwise dark void.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An indifferent gaze pierced through the palace and looked outside, landing on the fighting man and woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liora’s eyes shone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A trace of aloofness flashed in her pupils, before her mind connected with the palace around her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She instantly felt an extreme closeness, as if the two were part of the other, knowing that she had finally succeeded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s time...\", she muttered subconsciously before her hand clasped the now-fully crimson sphere and communicated with it.\u003C\u002Fp>",1094,"2026-06-03T10:39:03.948Z",1,"novelbin.me","dfe6a1fb124b9d9acbc38253c91b83726613cd47f65f9e562ef53fa168d9dbd4","evolution-from-little-devil-to-devil-empress-chapter-413","evolution-from-little-devil-to-devil-empress-chapter-411",482,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fevolution-from-little-devil-to-devil-empress-cover.jpg"]
