[Tokioka? What's going on?]

Helmod was stunned. He had just connected to Shiyin when he heard Shiyin's vital signs frantically alarming in his earpiece.

Fahrenheit is an excellent artificial intelligence system; it doesn't talk nonsense, doesn't interrupt, has strong professional skills, is considerate of its owner, and doesn't make decisions arbitrarily...

It is the only artificial system that Shion recognizes, the only system that Shion agrees to have memories of, and it is almost integrated with Shion. Its alarm is absolutely correct.

“Hermod, I will now report the coordinates to you. The coordinates are in silver light.” Ishtar came to Shi Yin and took off the earphone in Shi Yin’s right ear and put it on his own ear.

“Ishtar…” Shi Yin didn’t expect Ishtar to suddenly use this move. The sword was covered in extreme cold, freezing Shi Yin’s internal organs and blood, making Shi Yin unable to move for a moment.

"I'm sorry." Ishtar touched Shion's cheek and gently kissed it. "Please take good care of yourself."

"Wait..." Shi Yin reached out and grabbed Ishtar's skirt. In that instant, she felt a sharp pain, as if ice shards were freezing in her veins. "There are... other ways..."

"You know, when I asked you to go back and save Kita Kiyokawa and you didn't go, I knew that this life would be the most hopeful one." Ishtar knelt in front of Shion, her voice gentle.

"After all, you have plenty of time to wait. You wait for me and Agaray to realize their insignificance and have no choice but to submit to you. You've wasted dozens of times on each of them. If you weren't about to succeed, you would have been happy to stay at ease forever."

“Under normal circumstances, if new people do something unexpected, you will definitely go to save them, because you are someone who wants to protect your companions, wants the people around you to be well, and wants everyone to be safe and sound.”

“It’s just that it’s too desperate. They have to die, so you can only make their deaths more meaningful to indirectly fulfill their wishes.” Ishtar stroked Shion’s hair, a tear rolling down her cheek. “I’m sorry, am I being a little too clever?”

"If this is the best chance, then save your strength and go all out." Ishtar kissed Shion's cheek again: "The power of arrogance is hard for you to bear, but if I hurt you, you'll probably recover quickly."

After saying that, Ishtar stood up, tore off her skirt, and looked up at the sky.

"Wait a minute, Ishtar..." Shi Yin tried to get up, but she was seriously injured and her whole body was frozen. She was pinned down by the dragon and couldn't move at all.

The giant dragon beside them howled, seemingly knowing what choice its master had made. The flying dragons circled sadly, while the earth dragons closed their eyes and lowered their heads.

“Shiyin, do you know?” Ishtar turned to look at Shiyin and smiled gently, “Seeing you change from being my sister to what you are now, it makes me very sad.”

"Also, I've changed my wish. In addition to protecting my little garden, I'll add one more thing," Ishtar said softly. "Bury my sister and me together. After all, I don't really have any attachment to this world... And I don't want to run away from her anymore."

Ishtar knew she was also cowardly. She guarded her sister's garden, but never said a word of love to her sister during her lifetime. Even after her sister died, she never picked up her sister's photo and said anything.

She was running away—running away from her family of origin, running away from her sister, running away from her own heart.

Sometimes, Ishtar is afraid to die. She is afraid of seeing her younger sister after she dies, and then being speechless in each other's eyes. How should she, the unfit older sister, face her?

【Ishtar, have you thought it through?】

On the moon, Helmod looked at the scientists standing guard behind him, then at the cannon barrel beside him, which was half the size of the moon in diameter, and his expression was complicated.

“Of course.” Ishtar laughed. “Are you scared, Helmod?”

Killing Tokine gives Tokine a chance to survive, but Ishtar will certainly die. Helmod admits he's afraid; he's afraid Tokine will look at him with hatred.

"Hermod".

Ishtar spread his arms and flew toward Samael without hesitation.

Samael had already finished charging up his power, but what he saw was not Shi Yin but Ishtar. He was even angrier, feeling that Shi Yin was looking down on him for sending someone with low strength to fight against him.

Samael raised his staff and swooped down, the tip piercing Ishtar's chest. Ishtar clung tightly to Samael, his entire body radiating silver flames.

"Helmod!"

Ishtar's shout snapped Helmod back to reality. Helmod climbed onto the heavy cannon, his entire body transforming into a mechanical part attached to it.

Two pairs of golden divine hands supported the massive cannon barrel, while two pairs of purplish-black demonic hands bestowed power. With the assistance of these divine hands, the mechanical cannon barrel continuously reassembled, upgraded, calibrated, and adjusted its coordinates.

Finally, the cannon was pointed at a dazzling silver light emanating from the Earth. With Helmod's help, the golden light continued to gather, turning the cannon muzzle into a brilliant gold.

[Fire!]

Tearing, connecting, seizing, and reassembling—this is the power bestowed by God and the devil, relentlessly destroying the monsters that stand in the way of humanity and paving a golden path for humankind!

"This is the Hell Dragon, reversing the dawn, devouring light, let the world witness your power!" Ishtar held Samael tightly, preventing him from moving.

Samael felt a chill run down his spine as he saw a massive magic gate open on the ground, from which a giant dragon emerged.

It was a gigantic black dragon, a red-eyed black dragon, whose head alone was ridiculously large; it was perhaps only the size of the dragon's pupil.

Is this woman crazy?

If the dragon is summoned and completely unleashed, the earth is doomed!

Samael was certainly aware of Ishtar's ability, which was to summon dragons. However, some dragons were born rebellious and incredibly powerful, such as the most powerful Hell Dragon.

That was a power from another world, one that could not be detected.

"Warriors of the world, behold! This is my power! This is the power to kill Samael, the Seven Deadly Sins! Even the Seven Deadly Sins must die at the hands of humanity!" Ishtar shouted with all his might.

"So, love! Summon your courage! This is the power of the world. We represent humanity from the old era. Humanity will live on forever!"

"Let God see how humanity can stand shoulder to shoulder with Him!"

"We are not sinners destined to live in Eden and wait to die!"

"You're insane!" Samael had to admit his fear; he didn't want to die.

This hellish dragon is terrifyingly powerful; otherwise, it wouldn't be called the complete liberation of an ace ability user. In the past, Ishtar had always risked his life to pull the dragon back.

That's right, everyone else releases their power, but Ishtar pulls the power back after opening the door.

This time, Ishtar has managed to hold Samael back; how can he deal with the demonic dragon?

Don't they care about Earth anymore?

Excitement filled the dragon's crimson eyes, and murky black power churned in its mouth. A massive breath surged forth like a giant wave, its target being Ishtar.

The first thing this dragon did after gaining its freedom was to kill its master?

Why is this woman doing this? Is she out of her mind?

The next second, Samael had his answer.

A chilling force surged from behind Samael. This force was so solid that Samael only felt its intense sense of danger after it had already reached him.

At that moment, the dark power clashed with the golden power, and the impact of the two fully unleashed forces instantly turned everything around them into dust.

However, Hermod's complete liberation, aided by the technology and wisdom of all humankind, was elevated to countless levels, further enhanced by divine intervention.

A laser powerful enough to pierce or even destroy the Earth shot backward, pressing down on the dragon's breath!
