In the inner region of the Alba Mountain Range, a giant black cube suddenly shook violently. The vibrations were transmitted to the surrounding ground causing several of the surrounding trees to collapse. The cube is the god prison that Lilith used to confine Ziel.

When the students and teachers were being hunted by Lilith, Ziel was filling the entire area of the God Prison with his power. He expended massive amounts of aura, mana, and spiritual power to overwhelm the God Prison. The entire area of the God Prison was almost the same size as a kingdom. Ziel must fully charge the entire area with his power until it is overloaded and explodes from within.

After a whole night of Ziel flooding the God Prison with his power, finally, the space around him started to crack. He didn't waste the opportunity, pumping out more strength and making the God Prison violently shake and explode. Aura, mana, and spiritual power twisted into one soaring into the sky and creating thunderclouds.

Boooooooommmmmm

Ziel walked out slowly from the smoke and dust and looked at the students' camp. As if realizing something, Ziel's expression changed briefly but soon returned to his poker face.

"It's my fault, I should have killed them in the first place.

" He said coldly and tore the space in front of him and disappeared into it.

***

The students and teachers who had previously focused on Berith and Princess Iris who were hunting them were taken aback by the earthquake and the sudden change in weather. They were terrified as thousands of red lightning bolts struck the land simultaneously throughout the entire Alba Mountain Range.

"Isn't this the same as what happened in the Argaint Kingdom?

"

"You're right! It's the same!

"

"Yes! It is indeed similar!

"

The students who came from the Argaint Kingdom and saw the incident firsthand started to talk to each other. They were surprised that the phenomenon this time occurred in the Alba Mountain range. Among all of them who knew about it, one person had a different reaction.

"Ziel... It's you...

" Princess Aishia had tears in her eyes while covering her mouth with both hands. Meanwhile, Princess Freya smiled bitterly at the reaction of her childhood friend. But in her heart, she is happy and grateful that Ziel came before it was too late.

"What exactly is going on?

" Beatrix looked up at the sky which had suddenly darkened. She held Clara who was still unconscious in her arms.

"I don't know. I hope it's not a bad sign.

" Flavio shook his head and looked at Berith. He could tell that this matter had nothing to do with those black-robed people.

"What is this?

" Berith who was in front of kalya and was about to carry her suddenly trembled and looked up at the sky.

(What exactly happened?)

Kalya was shocked to see the phenomenon that had occurred in front of her. She had never seen Ziel's full power, so she didn't know what was going on.

Suddenly Lilith who had been left behind appeared not far from Berith. Her face looked a bit panicked and scared.

"Berith! God's prison is destroyed!

" Lilith shouted giving information to Berith.

"What!?

" Berith was shocked after hearing what Lilith said. God prison can even take down 3 true gods at once. Berith trembled in fear at the thought of Ziel's power being able to destroy it alone.

"We have to...

" Lilith wanted to say something to Berith, but suddenly she felt uncomfortable as the space around her became dense and heavy. She quickly realized that the space in the entire area of the Alba Mountain Range was locked. When Lilith was about to warn Berith, she saw the space above them suddenly split open and someone appeared from there.

The person who appeared from there was wearing a black robe and a plain white mask. His gray hair and red eyes are very noticeable. Currently, Ziel is using his true form. Ziel looked around, he could see Melick, King Leonida, and King Raghnall lying covered in blood. He also saw the figure of Princess Iris who was shrouded in dark mana and Clara who had fainted. When Ziel saw the badly injured Kalya in front of Berith, his eyes turned cold. He suddenly disappeared from everyone's sight.

"Berith! Get out of there!

" Lilith immediately warned Berith after seeing Ziel suddenly disappear. But his words were too late. Ziel had already appeared in front of Berith and kicked him in the face.

"Eh?

" Berith was dumbfounded and had no time to react at all, he has bounced hundreds of meters and ended up crashing into a cliff.

Boooooooommmmmm...

The cliff collapsed after colliding with Berith. The students and teachers were shocked to see Berith bounced off in one stroke.

"Sorry, I'm late.

" Ziel felt something strange inside of him after seeing Kalya's condition. He pointed his index finger at her and cast his magic.

Time Rewind

Kalya's severed hand slowly returned to its original state, as did the wound on her back. Not only did his wounds heal but also his torn clothes returned to their original state. Ziel magic used in Kalya is not healing magic but time magic. He returned Kalya's condition to the time before she received the wound. Ziel reached out his hand and helped her to stand up.

"It's okay. I'm glad you're fine.

" Kalya smiled sweetly, she accepted his outstretched hand and held it tightly.

The students and teachers especially Princess Aishia who saw it felt that there was a relationship between Ziel and Kalya. She felt upset and continued to look at them with thorny eyes. Princess Freya also feels the same way with her.

Ziel extended his hand towards Princess Iris who was not far from him. His sudden action made Kalya tilt her head in confusion. Ziel slowly closed his open palm like he was squeezing something. On the other hand, when Ziel did it, the space around Princess Iris suddenly compressed. Princess Iris in the middle of the compression of the space seemed to be holding back the pressure and all the pores of her body were bleeding. Not long after, all the bones in her body were crushed under pressure.

"Aaaaaaahhhhhhh!

" Princess Iris' screams echoed into the sky. The students and teachers who heard it could feel that it was extremely painful and sent shivering their spines. Princess Iris finally fell unconscious in a miserable condition.

"Sorry, I can't pity you.

" Ziel muttered seeing Princess Iris' state then turned his gaze towards Lilith.

boom...

Berith who was buried under the rubble of the cliff immediately got up, jumped, and landed next to Lilith. His face was bruised and blood was coming out of his nose.

"Miss, what are we going to do now?

" Berith asked Lilith in a slightly trembling voice.

"We have no other choice but to fight him to the death. The space in the entire Alba Mountain Range is locked. So we have to defeat him to get out of here.

" Lilith's face looked tense, she took out a vial with pills in it. He took out two pills, one for her and the other for Berith. They swallowed the pill together.

After they swallowed it, suddenly their strength soared several times. Their strength was not mana, aura, or spiritism, but divine power. Behind them floated a large glowing ring. Berith has one ring while Lilith has three piles. The pressure of their power spread throughout the Alba Mountain Range.

"What's this!?

"

"What kind of pressure is this!?

"

"My body is hard to move!

"

The students screamed in panic. They felt a different kind of pressure from that given by Princess Iris. The power seemed to force them to submit.

"What power is that?

" Kalya felt her body heavy and slightly shaking.

"Divine power, it is the special power of the divine race and what floats behind them is the halo god ring. The more rings, the stronger they are. They shouldn't be able to use that power in this world. But it looks like their hundreds of years of research are paying off.

" The first sentence that Ziel said was aimed at answering Kalya's question, while the next sentence was more like he was muttering to himself.

"How did you know all that, Ziel?

" Kalya looked at his red eyes, she wondered how Ziel knew all that.

"We'll talk about that later. Now you take the injured and the students out of here.

" Ziel didn't want to talk about it at the moment. He saw that Lilith and Berith were ready to attack him. Ziel couldn't fight a pair of true gods with divine power while protecting them all.

"Are you going to fight them alone?

" Kalya was worried after feeling the divine power they gave off.

"You don't have to worry, I'll be fine.

" Ziel tries to convince her. Although she was still hesitating, she finally nodded and went to where the students were gathered. She and the other teachers retrieved the unconscious Princess Iris, King Leonida, Merlick, and King Raghnall. Before they left the place, another forceful pressure could be felt from Lilith and Berith's direction. Right now they were wearing their divine dresses and ready to fight at full strength.

"They also have divine dresses!?

" Princess Freya was the first to scream after seeing Lilith and Berith's appearance. Currently, they were clad in shiny purple armor. Berith was wearing full armor, while Lilith looked more feminine which showed her curves.

The students also realized this after hearing Princess Freya's words. Those who only know from books or other people's stories, today saw it firsthand.

"What do you mean 'they too'?

" Kalya who was beside her asked.

"You'll find out later...hmph!

" Princess Freya turned her face and prepared to leave the place along with her injured father. The other students were confused by Princess Freya's attitude towards her. But Kalya just shook her head and ignored it. This made Princess Aishia suspicious of her friend's attitude. She wanted to accompany Ziel there, but she knew that she would only be a burden. So she had to leave that place with the others.

Ziel saw that they were ready to fight him. Before using his full power, he seemed to want to confirm something. Ziel, Berith and Lilith attacked simultaneously. One gray light collided with a pair of purple lights.

Booooooooooooooommmmmmmm

They collided multiple times in the sky and severely damaged the surroundings from their explosions and shockwaves of power. After a long fight, they kept their distance from each other.

"Incredible!

"

"Wow! He is so strong!

"

"What power is that!?

"

The students started shouting excitedly. The fear they experienced earlier was replaced with enthusiasm.

"Hmph...of course, who do you think he is? After all, he hasn't unleashed his full power yet.

" Princess Freya crossed her arms and muttered under her breath. Prince Fritz became annoyed with his younger sister's attitude which always exaggerated Ziel. Especially because of Princess Aishia's strange behavior since Ziel's appearance.

(What is she proud of?)

Kalya muttered in her heart after hearing what Princess Freya had said. She could only shake her head at her behavior. She looked back at Ziel's fight with Lilith and Berith.

"As I thought, your divine power is too weak.

" Ziel spoke nonchalantly to them.

"What are you saying?

" Lilith narrowed her eyes after hearing his words. But Ziel just kept quiet and didn't answer her question.

Two large magic circles appear from the right and left of Ziel. From the center of each magic circle, a black and white sword wrapped in chains slowly came out. Ziel grabbed the hilts of the two swords and pulled them out of the magic circle.

Clank...

The black and white aura mixed with Ziel's gray aura. The black robe he was currently wearing had changed into a divine dress that was slightly different from the one he wore when he fought in the Argaint kingdom. Lastly, a giant spirit circle like a gear floated behind him.

"I already know what I want to know. So... you can die..

" Ziel gave off a pressure far more terrifying than what Lilith and Berith had put out.
