"The souls of the inhabitants of the Sacred Origin are suffering from the corrosion generated by the clouds that cover the world."
Everyone was instantly enraged upon learning of the tragic situation of the dead inhabitants of the Sacred Origin.
Lanaery looked at the dark clouds with good and bad feelings.
She knew that if these clouds had not been there, everyone would have died long ago.
All of this was because the Sacred Origin Elemental Core that had developed consciousness used the enemy's element by combining it with its power to create a barrier that would only disappear if all the Abyssals Clones died.
Even Azther wouldn't be able to break this barrier, as no matter how much he attacked it, the barrier would keep regenerating unless Azther exhausted all his elemental power of his own volition.
If for some reason that was to happen, it would cause the barrier to deactivate automatically, but... Only death would await him.
Ettandra looked at the crystal on Lanaery's neck that was attached to a necklace.
"Despite being a world treasure, it is very disappointing that it takes so long to accumulate its full power."
Lanaery, hearing what Ettandra said, gently touched the white crystal with a spark of light inside.
"Normally, this wouldn't happen. But this cloud barrier that covers the world prevents the holy purification crystal from absorbing and activating the divine power in the world."
"I really can't understand the reason why this happens."
With a smile that reflected her disappointment in herself, Lanaery said, "The worst thing is that by having to help the crystal absorb divine power, my body will suffer greatly in the process."
Lanaery lamented that she didn't have a stronger body. If her body wasn't so weak, she could allow the crystal to absorb divine power much faster.
She turned her head to see her friends who had accompanied her in this long war.
In an instant, memories of when she met them flashed through her mind.
When Lanaery was still twenty-two years old.
She was passed from one battlefield to another as if she were a doll that only knew how to kill her enemies and heal her allies.
On one of these battlefields, she met Dwirni with his mind corrupted and nowhere near becoming a Dark Hero.
Dark heroes, beings who had betrayed their race in the most difficult moments. These Dark Heroes had brought about the fall of Hope City, the city with the strongest defense in the world.
She only used her divine power to purify his body, and because of this, Dwirni started following her everywhere.
The good thing was that the two of them helped each other in many life and death situations.
A year later, on another battlefield where everything was frozen.
She was nearly killed fighting an Abyssal Clone with the rank of evil commander.
Unfortunately, Dwirni and another group of heroes were busy fighting another evil commander.
It was a meeting decided by fate when she first saw Ettandra melting all the surrounding ice with her fierce crimson flames with a proud expression.
After great cooperation, as if they had learned the same fighting style, they defeated this evil commander so quickly that neither of them believed it.
Later, Lanaery realized that Ettandra was trained by one of her master's disciples.
For this reason, their fighting styles were so similar, even though Ettandra used a spear and she used a sword.

A twenty-four-year-old Lanaery met Vaidela in the ruins of the Kingdom of Heaven, a floating city that was now reduced to rubble.
Curiously, she had made tombstones for all the inhabitants of this city, and was kneeling on the graves of her family, with tears flowing nonstop from her beautiful emerald eyes.
Lanaery used her divine power to make the souls of all these people suffer less from the cloud barrier's corrosion.
This action of hers caused Vaidela to follow her. Finally, the hero she met later. When she was still twenty-five years old, she went to Ernys.
In the great capital city of the Temeies empire, which was now completely desolate.
Since all its inhabitants had died at the hands of an army of Abyssals Clones.
Although, curiously, they managed to kill even the last invading Abyssal Clone.
Ernys was found by Lanaery's group attempting to commit su*cide with his dual swords while he was sitting on the throne of the Emperor of Temeies.
Coincidentally, Vaidela, who was accompanying them, was Ernys's childhood friend, and seeing that she was going to commit su*cide, she was the first to give him a horrible beating so that he would come to his senses.
Lanaery, worried about Ernys' mental state, used her divine power to prevent him from falling into madness from his thoughts.
Fortunately, with time, Ernys no longer needed her treatments.
The problem was that his personality was deteriorating too quickly.
All of these memories only took a second to replay in Lanaery's mind.
Now Lanaery was fully prepared to end it all.
Suddenly, her body radiated an intense white light.
Without generating any noise or reaction in the wind, his body disappeared and reappeared only a few hundred meters from the Abyssal Clone in the middle of the city.
This speed could only be described as divine speed!
The place where Lanaery decided to appear was on top of a giant white palace with golden drawings that symbolized a god made of light.
The Demigod Rank Abyssal Clone calmly watched Lanaery's arrival.
Roar!
A spiral of fire appeared in the distance, as if a beast of fire was approaching from a distance!
This spiral of crimson fire also positioned itself very close to the Abyssal Clone.
Bang!
With a beautiful explosion, Ettandra appeared in the middle of a fiery crimson flower with a proud and imposing aura!
Wooosh!
With the wind taking everything it touches, Vaidela arrived as if the wind were her and she was the wind.
Ernys appeared from a distance in a blue bubble that seemed to be made of glass.
Plop!
This bubble burst to free Ernys from inside him. Covering tens of meters with a light rain that did not take long to disappear.
Bang!
Finally, Dwirni came from the sky, creating a crater in the ground as usual.
With everyone on the battlefield. An eerie silence swept over the place.
Suddenly, Lanaery released a beam of light from her hands that impacted everyone's body except for the Abyssal Clone.
Everyone instantly felt how their control over their elements improved by 30%.

In the center of the Sacred Origin.
The Elemental Core was seeing the start of this battle.
Although its age was in the billions of years, it was only a little over a thousand years ago that its consciousness developed.
"If only my consciousness had been born a few thousand years in advance, I would most likely have had the strength to face Azther."
A genderless voice with a tone of resignation and regret was heard from the colossal colored ball that rotated in the center of this world.
Unfortunately, the most the Elemental Core could do was use an ability it painstakingly created to give the inhabitants of this world time to grow stronger and, if possible, kill Azther.
It was a real shame that the Elemental Core saw that only four heroes and one Saintess survived.
Still, this small group gave it hope.
Rather, the world treasure around Lanaery's neck was what gave it hope.
According to the Elemental Core's memories, the origin of these world treasures was very mysterious. It only knew of a few world treasures that were already being created when it was born in the center of this world.
Some of the world's treasures were literally older than their very existence!
The problem with these world treasures was that their requirements to use them were nearly impossible to meet.
The Elemental Core was sure that of the world treasures hidden on the Sacred Origin, it couldn't use any!
The only world treasure that could be used was the one that Lanaery had, and only she could use it.
Without being able to do anything else to help in this situation. The Elemental Core will try to make it at least difficult for Azther to enter the Sacred Origin with his giant body before Lanaery finishes activating the holy purification crystal.
"If only that hero hadn't died due to his carelessness, he would have been able to use the most powerful world treasure hidden in those terrifying ruins."
With a sad tone, the Elemental Core recalled a young man with crimson red hair who had the potential to become an Ancient Hero!
"Who would have thought that Azther would instantly use his most powerful attack."
The image of a loathsome purple creature flashed through the Elemental Core's memories.
"Although there is such a girl with similar powers, unfortunately, she didn't have enough time to finish growing up."
The Elemental Core deeply regretted everything that happened in their home and the heroes who did not have time to become stronger.
"Huh?"
Suddenly, the Elemental Core sensed a warp in space and time. But couldn't figure out what it was or the exact location of the warp.
So it could only ignore it.
"Looks like they're done with that Abyssal Clone."
It said the Elemental Core as it felt its barrier of dark clouds disappear little by little.
"I wish you all the best of luck."

A few minutes ago, in the city of Bright Feathers, which was now just another battlefield in this world.
The moment when everything was going to start, but it was also going to end, was waiting for a crimson-haired woman to launch the first attack.
Starting the end of this unfortunate world.
