Even from the lord continent, the light of the explosion was visible as if a new star had been born. The light faded away as swiftly as it appeared, as the battle within the stars concluded.

High above in the starry sky, the space that was destroyed swiftly healed as an empty area appeared. All the remains of the void beasts, space dust, and other things had been erased, as only two figures remained floating.

The massive titan had now exited its ascension form, and even its king's majesty had waned; the soul within it wasn't faring any better, as the soul light appeared dimmer than ever.

Its sword was filled with cracks on the verge of breaking as all the energy within its body had been exhausted. Even the three energy cores were on the verge of being snuffed out as the titan could barely float.

Although the soul had a way to restore the titan and itself to full power once more, she didn't do so. This wasn't a death match, and it was best to use that skill in a more opportune moment.

On the other side, Stella stood in the void unmoved, the sword in her hands cracked like shattered glass and disappeared into nothingness. She looked at her palm, now covered with burn marks, and clenched her fist.

The wound healed in an instant; that final attack had managed to breach fifty percent of her normal form's defense. Most mortal kings of the same level would not have survived such an attack.

Perhaps only the fallen she had faced may have the power to survive without the need of rebirth. The creation of her sister was more fierce than she gave it credit for.

Looking at the titan on the verge of shutting down due to energy loss, she waved her hand; her energy covered the titan's body as they started their descent.

"Good Battle."

She gave her last praise as both of them started to pick up speed. After reaching a few times faster than the speed of light, the increase in speed stopped.

After a while of falling, they finally reached the city of her dearest lord as she moved the titan toward the gate, letting its massive body rest there.

She continued to float in her looking at her dearest lord with hopeful eyes, although she defeated the titan, the decision of whether to forgive her or not still rested on her lord.

"Come here."

Neo understood her thoughts, so he raised his head and spoke. He motioned with his hands as Stella swiftly moved, appearing before him in an instant. Her head was down as she waited for his further command.

"Good job."

Neo spoke as he took a step forward. Before Stella could react, he hugged her body tightly as he gently caressed her head.

"You have gained my forgiveness."

Neo spoke with a soft tone as he pinched her plump waist; her star-covered clothes didn't seem to restrict his action as he could directly touch her skin wherever he wished.

"Ah~"

Hearing his words and feeling his pinch, she moaned a little as she hugged him back. Although she controlled her strength, she still buried her face in his chest as if to become one with him.

Neo didn't mind as both of their bodies started to float, since he had reached the ascension rank, he could naturally fly. He gave a quick glance to his two Valkyries, and they understood the meaning of his gaze.

He was asking them to give both of them some alone time for a moment, although as a lord, he didn't need their permission, but he still did so. After all, their relationship after so much isn't just that of a master and servant.

Stella didn't react to herself being lifted up as she still clung to her lord's body, enjoying his scent and touch. Counting the days she had stayed dead, it had been almost a week since she last met her lord.

This was the longest span of time she had been far from him, and she wished to make up for it now, as she had already gained her lord's forgiveness.

So with Stella in his embrace, he flew toward his office, entering through the window, he sat on his throne and let Stella lie on his body.

He hugged her body as her clothes seemed to vanish at his touch. He could feel her smooth skin touching his body as he continued to enjoy her warmth for a while.

"Stella."

He called out as she looked up, her moist eyes met his, and her lips seemed to tempt him. She was going to ask her about the reason for her death, but now, seeing her expression, he couldn't hold back.

Thus, his head moved as both of their lips met, his tongue pried open her mouth as she let him do whatever he desired. He played with her mouth; however, he liked it as his hands roamed around her body.

Her hug tightened as they enjoyed the moment. Time slowly passed as their lips finally parted. Neo had become a little breathless as he could barely control his lower body.

Stella's face had become as red as a ripe peach as her hot breath reached his neck, making it even harder for him to control himself. He quickly raised his hands as his fingers entered her mouth, sealing it away. Brought to you by *.

Her tongue moved as they licked his fingers, his eyes sharpened as with his two fingers she gripped her tongue, not letting her do any action. She also understood the meaning behind his action as she quickly calmed down her rising lust.

After a while, both of them managed to calm their restless heart as Neo finally released her mouth. Stella felt a sense of loss, but she quickly threw away such thoughts.

"Stella, my dear sword. Tell me what happened."

Neo asked his a tone that became more serious. He knew that at the moment of her death, she had already reached the Ascension rank. Previously, he didn't have a proper grasp of her strength, but now he did.

She hadn't even used all her strength, but she was still able to swiftly defeat the titan, although she had grown stronger than compared to the moment she had died. Still, killing her wouldn't have been an easy thing.

Hearing his question, she quickly started to recount all that had happened as Neo finally got the full picture of things. Just hearing the word Mortal King made him narrow his eyes.

At the current time point, it won't be surprising if Mortal Lords can interfere, but at the time of Stella's death, there would have been no way for a mortal lord to act. The lord continent is a trail, and heaven will never give anyone an impossible trail.

Although he doesn't know the exact reason for the existence of the lords, he knows they served a greater purpose. Not even heaven will give something for free. Since lords exist, they are most likely meant to face the danger faced by heaven.

Thus, he had understood that heaven had been gazing at him, especially Stella, who is the brightest star currently shining in the Lord's continent.

The heavens will never allow her to face unbeatable odds; even if heaven allows her to face such difficulties, the stars in the sky won't. Then there is only one reason she had to face the Mortal King.

A stronger being used his/her power to shield the heavens' gaze and allowed a mortal king to take action. Though a dreadful thought, it wasn't all bad.

Since she only faced a single mortal king, there was still a limit. After all, if there wasn't one, there was no reason for that higher being not to act and finish Stella off with their own power.

Plus, with the nature of the beings Stella faced, he is more or less certain that the higher being is from the central region. He seems to have been targeted by the cult of the corrupted or a similar organization.

There was also the fact that the being didn't take action against either Lily or Vesta after Stella, meaning that they can't repeat the action for now. And if they can, there seems to be some kind of time limit, as they haven't taken action so far.

Then his thoughts shifted toward Yulan; although she didn't say anything, he knew she was facing a strong opponent. Her voice sounded more tired than normal, and she seemed less energetic.

It seems he has to call her to make sure if a corrupted being is attacking her territory. If so, then the problem was bigger than what he initially thought.

The cult may not be just targeting him, but all the lords or perhaps the strongest of the lords, and is trying to suppress them.

"Haa."

Neo released a tired sigh as he hugged Stella's body tighter for some spiritual comfort.
