Arya\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the Fuxi Empire, Varona had declared herself Monarch in front of the entire world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her coronation was now officially finished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Holy Empire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All the Fiendkind had died.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Holy Empire’s capital was heavily devastated after this attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Holy Church’s sanctuary has been levelled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only usable part left of the once grand structure was its underground facilities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hidden chamber below the church.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isa stood before a large reservoir of blood, sighing tiredly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Come, I now call upon you” she chanted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A card was floating above the reservoir of blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following her chant, the card let out an ashen grey light that shone on the reservoir of blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Devil Summoning Card]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Note: Using this card, you can siphon power from unlimited amount of souls in order to guide a soul from another world]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An echoing voice came from the blood reservoir: 「 You’ve done well, the ritual is almost complete, I only need a bit more time to gather my powers before I can descend upon your world 」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Asmodeus, when you come to this world, will you really protect me?” Isa asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Asmodeus said nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A card flew out from the blood reservoir, gently floating in front of Isa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The card was obscured by a burning bright layer of flames, making it impossible to know what it depicts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What is this?” Isa curiously asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「 An unspeakable card, carry it with you, at a specific time, it will automatically activate to save you from harm 」 Asmodeus answered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The card fell into Isa’s hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isa was a bit hesitant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A card whose effect cannot be determined isn’t something she’s willing to use.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention, a Devil’s item isn’t something you can just take.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She spoke: “I want to check this card a little bit”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go ahead”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isa placed the card on her forehead, carefully sensing it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A feeling of protection gradually drifted around, enveloping her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Holding this card obscured in flame in hand, Isa could feel a deep layer of protection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This card assured her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With her competence as a card user, Isa’s card intuition wouldn’t make a mistake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you, Asmodeus” Isa put the card away and said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「 No need, just make sure to be careful and ensure your own safety before I get there 」Asmodeus spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His tone seemed a bit worried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Isa noticed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her tone became a bit more respectful: “Then, I shall take my leave first”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「 You may go 」Asmodeus.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isa left the blood reservoir.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A deep sigh could be heard from the blood reservoir.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Isa made it back to the surface, she noticed Great Holy Apostle Hurt and Cardinal Kid were hurriedly coming towards her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What is it?” Isa asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Kid said that he found intelligence about that person” Hurt reported.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Which person?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Isa asked, she immediately remembered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Confederate military officer who wrecked Madame Punta’s banquet, fought her and managed to get away via warp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bastard that dared to make a fool out of myself!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Speak” Isa ordered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Please take a look, your holiness”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cardinal Kid turned on his Holo-Brain and projected the screen for them to see.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Fuxi Empire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varona’s coronation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At her call, a golden-armored swordsman appeared, killing the monster and the military official.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is that him?” Isa asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cardinal Kid: “When he escaped from Madame Punta’s banquet, he was wearing that armor”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Are you sure?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Very, my whip couldn’t penetrate that armor at all, I wouldn’t mistake it for anything else” Kid answered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isa squinted her eyes, staring at the golden-armored swordsman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her gaze fell on the golden-armored swordsman’s sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, that’s him, I remember that sword!” she rubbed her chin as she spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then that means he’s a Fuxian” Hurt commented.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No wonder no matter how much we search the Confederate we still couldn’t find such a person” Kid spoke excitedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isa contemplated for a while, then spoke: “We have the Fuxi Empress’ invitation to her coronation do we not?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We do”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If we fly there now, how long will it take?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Using a super-speed shuttle, we will arrive in time for the noon banquet”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Very well, Kid will stay here and take over the situation. Hurt, come with me to Fuxi”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes” the two Apostles bowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isa muttered: “I finally found you, now I’m really curious about what you took from the Holy Empire”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not too long later, the super-speed shuttle rose up to the sky and headed for the Fuxi capital.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Fuxi Empire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Capital.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The noon banquet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything was highly simplified and quick-paced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The world leaders gathered here to discuss emergency measures against hell’s invasion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were also rumors of a new crucial technology being released to the public by Confederate scientists.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if that’s the case, you can’t make so many world leaders discuss on an empty stomach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Which is why they had arranged a light banquet for all the leaders to eat before the long meeting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the conference podium, Her Majesty the Monarch made a short welcoming speech.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The noon banquet started.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All the world leaders sat down one by one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Monarch came to each table to greet the world leaders, politicians and celebrities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her demeanor was calm, graceful and alluring, the crown on her head could almost be seen to be flickering with light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything was harmonious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a royal guard slowly ran towards her and whispered something to the Monarch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She then excused herself and left together with the welcoming official and her royal guards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was curious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But soon enough, they found out why.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The banquet hall opened as the Monarch walked side by side with four people, talking and smiling as they walked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The oldest person was one that everyone here knew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Freedom Confederate President.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other three younger people were a bit harder to discern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But from the Monarch’s attitude, she seems to be closer to the three youth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s very strange.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What’s even more strange was the Confederate President himself was also very familiar with these three youths.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I want the profiles of those three” Isa spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She sat silently together with Hurt alone, as no one dared to try and speak to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hurt turned on his Holo-Brain and accessed the Holy Church’s intelligence network.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Very quickly, he projected the information from the Holo-Brain in front of the Pope.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Reading through their profiles, the Pope glanced at the three of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A renowned King of Assassins, a famous scientist, hmm, and a nameless nobody”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…What a strange combination”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Pope muses for a bit, then abruptly exclaimed: “No wait, why does that scientist give me such a familiar feeling?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had an urge to draw cards to peek into destiny.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she held it down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This place is a solemn banquet, if I drew cards here, wouldn’t that make me a show for them all to see?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, a welcoming official of the palace stepped forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing the Pope, he was so nervous sweat was dripping down his forehead, but he maintained a perfect smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The official placed a rectangular envelope in front of the Pope and respectfully bowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Pope reached out to check the card.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the noon banquet, a world conference will be held to discuss countermeasures against the Apocalypse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I will be there on time” she spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Understood, your holiness” the official turned to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only after getting away from the Pope’s table did he silently sighed from relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isa evaluated Varona.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Monarch had just shown a few esteemed guests to their table, chatted with them a bit and was about to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the host, she needs to arrange the upcoming world conference.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isa thought for a bit, then raised her hand and waved at the Monarch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since her every action were being monitored closely, this gesture was noticed by a lot of people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Monarch Varona would of course also noticed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varona turned to look at Isa.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their eyes met.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isa spoke: “Varona, might I have a word?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The banquet hall fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of them murdered an entire royal family, stole the country’s authority, leader of a spiritual organization and a peak 5th stage powerhouse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other was the victim of said murder, even her husband had died, only to stay strong without falling and once again hold the power over nation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The grudge between them should run deep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at this time, the Pope had smiled and invited the Monarch for a chat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before the Monarch had responded, a royal guard suddenly stepped out and spoke up first: “If you have anything to say, please do. There is no need to get close to the Monarch”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>True enough, it was common knowledge that the Pope was a powerful person that could rival even the Fuxi Emperor, the strongest Professionist in Fuxi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although the Monarch herself was a Professionist, their strength couldn’t possibly be compared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the Pope wanted to kill the Monarch, all it takes is a single strike from a close distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Varona, are you scared of me?” Isa asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varona smirked sarcastically: “You should refer to me as Her Majesty the Monarch, Isa”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isa stared straight at her and softly spoke: “Is that so? But you are also calling me by name”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course I am, tell me, what position do you hold? Usurper? King Murderer?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I am the Holy Church’s Pope”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varona replied: “The Holy Church belongs to the Medici clan, this generation’s clan head, Anna Medici, has yet to recognize your authority”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Pope’s smile slowly rescinded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Varona looked around at the world leaders and politicians in the room before looking back at Isa and spoke: “State your business”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isa replied: “This matter is related to the shady business of the Fuxi Empire’s royalty; I think it’s better that you come here for a private conversation”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She then leaned her face on her palm, asking provocatively: “Or could it be, you don’t dare to? As a Monarch, you’re afraid of me killing you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing such provocation, Varona could only silently grit her teeth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She really is too dangerous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter what, I won’t place myself in danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only children and hot-headed youths compete over every small detail.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she was about to refuse, a familiar voice entered her ears again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go, let’s hear what she has to say, don’t worry, I’m here” Gu Qing Shan said.\u003C\u002Fp>",1739,"2026-06-09T03:05:01.244Z",1,"novelbin.me","af086f953c0b0fe947c9fd1e5545405c4709f5c33d89d72699743695d8aaa112","worlds-apocalypse-online-chapter-362","worlds-apocalypse-online-chapter-360",1850,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fworlds-apocalypse-online-cover.jpg"]
