The nameless crusade surrounding the Grand Palhalas Hotel in the heart of Angus City continued on in order to gain control of the extra-dimensional door in the secret room underneath Grand Palhalas Hotel. With the three-way coalition of Insect Empress Vicky Hill, Mechanical Empress Andulisna, and Jade Bone Demon Velouria, they advanced towards the Grand Palhalas Hotel from three separate directions.

These three Abyss Creators did not have a good relationship. Though they were in a temporary alliance for this battle, they chose to attack on their own instead of going together. The Abyss Demonic Insect Race charged from the front. Since their numbers were plenty, they could create an insect swarm to advance as cannon fodder.

The Abyss Mechanical Race and Abyss Skeletal Race chose to attack from the left and right of the Abyss Insect Army, respectively. When the troops of the three Abyss Demonic Races piled together, they nearly reached a million. But this wasn’t a one-sided advancement. With the support of a World Creator’s power, the Divine Race from a different dimension that was controlling the Grand Palhalas Hotel forcefully opened up a Divine Territory in this severely abyssified area of Angus City.

The Divine Territory was the Divine Race’s domain. If any Abyss Demons entered this zone, their combat power and strength would be reduced by more than 60%. Even top-level existences such as the Abyss Creators and the Abyss Demon Kings will have their power halved.

In the same manner, if the Divine Race trespassed into the abyss zone, they would also be weakened. The only ones not affected were proper Demon God and Evil God members of the World Destructor’s camp, and also others like the Chaos Bringers.

Bella was starting to feel at a loss. The Divine Race’s weakening effect on the Abyss Demons was too obvious. If they stepped into the Divine Territory, even the lowest-leveled Two-winged Fighter Angels would be able to match against a large number of the Abyss Demons. The Divine Race on the opposite side had around a hundred thousand troops. If the demons were to fight in the Divine Territory, it would be no different than serving themselves up on a plate.

Bella didn’t consider things thoroughly and had the Great Old One Cthulu Saya and the Master of Darkness Ira Klaus head back too early. Now, not only were these two Abyss Creators stronger than the three, but they also had a large number of ultra-long-range attack units in their Abyss Demon Army.

The only troops on this side were Mechanical Empress Andulisna and her subordinates, who had a good number of ultra-long-range attack units. There were practically none on Insect Empress Vicky Hill and Jade Bone Demon Velouria’s side.

But neither of the two sides sent out their troops brainlessly. After a round of fighting in the transition area and after the Divine Race retreated to their Divine Territory, the Abyss Demon Army automatically stopped advancing. At the same time, the Abyss Mechanical Race’s ultra-long-range units fired their long-range beam attacks on the Divine Race in the Divine Territory.

The only three special existences unaffected by the Divine Territory on Bella’s side were Kriss, Little Sister Lisha, and herself. Demon God Angel, Evil God Mia, and Interdimensional Illusion Demon Noesha from the Chaos Bringers, as well as “Poison Origin” Betty, were all unable to arrive at Angus City on such short notice. The Magical Teleportation Array was destroyed some time ago during the Abyss Demonic Insect Race’s occupation from before and had yet to be repaired till now.

Bella and the rest retreated behind an abandoned sundries store and hid there temporarily to catch their breaths. The Grand Palhalas Hotel was right at the end of this street, around a thousand meters away. Although it was close, they would reach the Divine Territory in just 500 meters. There was no way Bella and the rest could lead their Abyss Demons inside.

Bella took out her magical contact crystal and immediately contacted the Mothers of Creation resting in the Dark Sacred Region, Creator of Light Vianne and Creator of Darkness Mystica. Of the five Mothers of Creation standing on Bella’s side, she interacted with these two more frequently. She didn’t feel good about asking the other three for help since they didn’t know each other too well.

“The Supreme Divine Race? So it’s those guys from the Holy Creator... That’s a tough enemy this time, Bella! I never liked them, but I can’t just fight him head-on with the restrictions of my identity as a World Creator!”

“I didn’t think even he would get involved in the mess from this dimension. Bella, logically speaking, as the strongest Dimension Creator, I shouldn’t be helping you. Even though the one you’re facing is a Father of Creation, we’re still considered allies by name.”

“However, as your friend, and with your identity... Anyway, just take whatever I tell you next as something you learned from a passing rumor.”

After Creator of Light Vianne and Creator of Darkness Mystica confirmed that Bella was on a one-way contact line on the magical contact crystal and that Kriss and Lisha on the other side wouldn’t be able to hear them, they revealed whatever they could tell her.

They couldn’t say the name or ranking of the Father of Creation that invaded this time, but they could tell Bella some other information about him. A Holy Creator, as the name implied, was a Creator that only created divine beings, like the Divine Race.

In this dimension, he controlled the Divine Race, the Divine Beasts, as well as a large number of humans created to worship the Divine Race. Basically, none of them were from the other common races in this dimension, such as the Beast Race, Elven Race, and Demon Race.

There were many Fathers of Creation with such extreme ideas in the World Creator’s Camp. The one who clashed with him the most wasn’t the Creator of Darkness Mystica, but a Fallen Creator who specialized in creating demons and demon gods.

If a creator was capricious, the number of nonsensical derivatives would proliferate. Some World Creators had already departed from their duties and basic principles gradually, so there were many eccentric ones among the World Creators.

Bella didn’t know much about the Fathers of Creation in the World Creator’s Camp. All this Holy Creator created was the Divine Race. According to the Creator of Light Vianne’s impression of him, this Father of Creation was really good-looking. To put it in simple terms, he was a handsome man.

But Bella clearly felt that this World Creator was too... lacking in principles. It was alright if he was handsome, but he didn’t want his subordinates to steal his spotlight. So, even though he could have made all the Fighter Angels and Deities good-looking, this guy just didn’t follow the other World Creators’ example. Instead of designing the men of the Divine Race as attractive, they were designed to look no different from monsters.

Compared to the ugly-looking Fighter Angels and Deities, the sparse number of Valkyries was the creme de la creme. Each one was personally crafted by the Holy Creator, and unlike the mass-produced Fighter Angels, all of them were unique existences. Their divine artifacts and powers were individually designed, and their combat power was also many times higher than that of the mass-produced ones. It was proof of the unspoken truth that all mass-produced goods would turn into dregs.

Through the information provided by Mystica and Vianne, Bella had a rough idea of the opposite side’s combat power and strength. The Fighter Angels could be differentiated by the number of wings on their backs. From the lowest ranking two-winged ones up to twenty, there were a total of five levels. The Deities were graded according to the material of the metal armor they wore on the outside. In ascending order, these were black iron, bronze, silver, gold, and platinum—also five levels.

There were only three levels for the Valkyries: primary, intermediate, and advanced. They were distinguished by their hair color. The primary stage featured long blonde hair, white for the intermediate, and the advanced level had any other hair color beside the first two. The ones Bella saw were just primary ones.

“Bella, that guy is using a surrogate body. Still, he can’t be beaten with your current battle strength. However, the situation has changed. I can sense that most of his power is focused on sealing and suppressing something. You just have to get your Hand of the Demon God into the position of his surrogate body’s heart, and his surrogate body will be done for.”

“Remember, you only have one chance. You can’t use any weapon other than the Hand of the Demon God. He’s guarded. If you miss, he’ll activate the World Creator’s body protection shield. He hasn’t noticed that you’re a Demon God in hiding yet, so he hasn’t activated that energy-consuming shield. You only have one chance for a sneak attack, okay?”

“As long as that guy can be seriously injured, the temporary Divine Territory will fall apart. Bella, Mystica sneaked one of her gloves into that big bag she gave you for the support treasures. All you have to do is take it out and put it on.”

“But remember, you must not reveal this glove in front of any members of the World Destructor’s Camp for now, or there’ll be unnecessary misunderstandings and trouble. You can’t even show it to your big sister. You can tell her once the time is right, but not now. That’s everything I can say, and I can only wish you a good battle in advance.”

Bella fished out a dark, black lace left glove from her own storage ring. It had a large number of mysterious incantation markings on the surface. This was the Creator of Darkness Mystica’s precious object. The other was on Mystica’s right hand. Even though Mystica insisted on giving it to her as a “farewell present”, Bella had taken it upon herself to recognize it as a token of love instead.

Neither Mystica nor Vianne told her the full truth. This was a World Creator’s glove, one of the standard pieces of equipment. Be it a Mother of Creation or a Father of Creation, they were essential precious objects. They had the ability to break down and reset everything in a dimension. This was equivalent to an important tool for a Dimensional Creator.

Even though the Supreme Divine Race under the Holy Creator that invaded this place came from another dimension, they were considered half a product of this world now because they were affected by the effects of this glove.

As a Sacred Demon God, Bella now existed in a special form. She didn’t have any adverse reactions to it and was successfully able to put on this “Hand of Creation”. This must not be seen by any World Destructor for now; otherwise, Bella would be treated as a traitor and invited to the solitary confinement room for a seat.

After putting on the glove, Bella had no idea what to do now. Neither Vianne nor Mystica told her how to use this “cheat item”. They had turned off the magical contact crystal before telling her anything. Bella thought about contacting them again, but she got the message that the other side had temporarily shut off their magical contact crystal, which was equivalent to turning off a phone.

Perhaps this glove had some kind of poison or petrifying ability that could cause anything she touched to be poisoned or turned into stone? While thinking about this, an experiment subject immediately appeared before Bella.

Even though the forces of each side were facing each other with their own Divine Territories and Abyssal Regions, the Fighter Angels of the Supreme Divine Race relied on the divine artifacts covering their bodies and the high mobility of their wings to come out quite often, so they could harass and pick a fight with the Abyss Demon Army.

The street where Bella and the others were at was attacked by the Fighter Angels. A group of Fighter Angels flew over and unleashed a variety of long-raged holy magic that turned the Abyss Crypt Spiders and Abyss Crypt Insects crawling on the ground into corpses. The divine artifact equipment was separated by levels, allowing their owners to enter the Abyssal Region for a set amount of time with a special blessing. It rendered the abyssal weakening effect useless.

With the high propulsion of the wings on the Fighter Angels’ backs, they didn’t think much of the Abyss Demonic Insect Race at all. Before many of the crypt spiders could even spit out their webs to attack, they were all cleaned up by their holy magic. Bella and the rest weren’t considered Abyss Demons, so the effects of the holy magic weren’t pronounced on them. At most, it felt like they were hit in the eye by a bright light and nothing else.

“To all you fallen, let the divine light grant you your final salvation!”

When they found out that Bella and the rest were fine, a two-winged angel swooped down while holding the divine artifact, “Spear of Judgement”, and aimed it straight for Bella’s heart. Bella subconsciously reached out her left hand to catch it, grabbing onto the tip of the “Spear of Judgement”. A shocking sight presented itself in front of everyone. The spearhead of the divine artifact instantly weakened and was crushed to pieces by Bella’s grip.

“Father’s gift... The darkness shouldn’t be able to... to...”

“Still talking at a time like this? Farewell, you false angel...”

Bella moved forward and unleashed a “Black Tiger Steals Heart” move, piercing through the divine artifact armor covering the Fighter Angel’s chest. The unlucky Fighter Angel was pierced through, and its heart ruptured. Bella swung her hand and threw it to the pile of Abyss Crypt Insects at the back. The Abyssal Crypt Insects that looked like cockroaches quickly swarmed over to divide the Fighter Angel’s corpse.

Perhaps it was because they became allies, but Bella didn’t feel disgusted when looking at these giant cockroach-looking Abyss Crypt Insects anymore. After seeing their companion get killed, the Fighter Angels rushed over in anger. This was the first casualty for the Supreme Divine Race since the battle began, so it was not strange for them to be angry.

The Abyss Demonic Insect Race was not to be outdone. They quickly gathered to join in on the fight as well. Even though they were not strong on their own, they were alright as a swarm. Bella took a few steps back to avoid the Fighter Angels’ frenzied attacks while Kriss and Lisha, who were at the side, immediately engaged as supporters.

“No bullying Big Sister Bella, you disgusting birdies! Back off!”

Lisha’s hand had transformed into a giant black shield. The outer surface bulged outwards in a fierce-looking demon face with fangs. Lisha crashed over while holding up the giant shield with both hands. A couple of Two-Winged Fighter Angels were unable to evade in time and were sent flying with a bang. Even the divine artifacts, “Spears of Judgement”, were knocked off their hands.

“Damn you, you violent woman. That’s...”

“The divine spear! Fa-Holy Father...”

The moment their divine artifacts were knocked off, the Abyssal Blood-Sucking Mosquitoes that were already lurking nearby launched a surprise attack. They all swarmed over and sucked the wings of the Fighter Angels dry. The Fighter Angels with the shriveled wings immediately crashed to the floor.

The Abyss Army Ants that had been waiting on the ground for the longest time surged in and devoured the Fighter Angels in less than a minute, not even leaving their bones behind. The Abyssal Region was the Abyss Demons’ territory. It didn’t matter what Divine Race it was that came in; without the blessings of their divine artifacts, they would all end up dead.

“Come on down! You think you’re so great just cause you’re flying in the air?”

Black and White Swords formed in Kriss’s hands, the “Darkness Devourer” and “Pure White Messenger”. She leaped up, swinging her two swords in quick succession to strike at the Two-Winged Fighter Angels at speed comparable to that of a certain “beta tester” using the “dual wield” hack in the previous life.

The last time Bella saw a swordsman with such quick attack speed was the Pseudo Demon God, Dark Faust. Ford also had a fast swing speed. Bella wasn’t sure who would be faster if the two compared. In the end, she counted them both as high-level swordsmen at the same level for now.

The two-winged Fighter Angel was quickly unable to withstand Kriss’s continuous attacks, a problem compounded by their “terrible luck” as lancers. After unleashing a “Dark Cross” similar to Dark Ford’s, the two-winged Fighter Angel’s arms and both the wings on its back were severed, splattering their golden blood everywhere in a gory scene.

“The Holy... The Holy will not yield...”

Kriss turned around, swinging her blade. She severed the head of the two-winged Fighter Angel before it could even finish its dying oath, causing its head to roll on the ground. The Abyss Army Ants all around the area quickly surrounded the corpse and devoured the body. During the group fight, they were all working in concert with the other Abyss Insect Race, and they specialized in offering assist damage.

The Divine Race invading other dimensions could no longer be measured by the standards of the Divine Race. Bella was having an easy time on this side, even more relaxed than Lisha and Kriss. Under the powers of the “Left Hand of the Creator”, the Two-Winged Fighter Angels who fought Bella had their divine artifacts, “Spear of Judgement”, crushed by the mysterious power. Next, they would be killed by the assisting Abyss Demonic Insect Race.

Bella was glad that these Fighter Angels were all designed to look like inhumane monsters. If they looked like the traditional pretty babe, it didn’t matter whether they were being sucked dry by the Abyss Blood-Sucking Ants or devoured by Abyss Army Ants; the scenes would be so brutal and haunting that even a Demon God like Bella wouldn’t be able to watch on.
