“Got it!”

“That guy is going down!!”

“Everyone, rush in! This is our last chance!”

Gahhh…

Numerous users unleashed their skills, and the God of the Dead’s body shattered.

The God of the Dead’s soul had already perished, leaving only a body without a master.

It was similar to extracting a soul from the decayed body of a fallen Sugarado, but even in this state, it was still quite strong.

Even if the users attacked immediately, it wasn’t very effective.

But in the end, it was just a shell.

“It’s over.”

You can’t win against me and Black Lily without a soul.

I delivered the final blow and briefly expressed my gratitude to the dead Yena before landing the finishing strike.

Crash!!!

[The God of the Dead has been defeated!!]

[All dead beings in the continent lose their power.]

[World Quest: Parts of the Chaotic Era have been cleared.]

[A massive amount of experience points gained!]

[Level up skyrockets!]

[Title: Darkness Destroyer awarded.]

[Title: One who has vanquished Disaster awarded.]

[Title: Savior of the End (Transcendence) awarded.]

[Your contribution rate is ‘41%’.]

“Not as high as I expected.”

I had somewhat anticipated this percentage, considering Black Lily was primarily targeting it.

Still, shouldn’t it be a bit higher since I fought directly?

[Oh]

[Clear!!!]

[Finally cleared it!]

[Wow]

[Go Black Lily! Go Black Lily! Go Black Lily! Go Black Lily! Go Black Lily!]

[I trusted you, Lady Lily!]

[Yena really pulled it off at the last moment.]

[Go Yena]

[LOL]

[That was awesome.]

[Wasn’t that just a lucky last hit? Haha.]

[Whoa]

[The rewards must be insane, right?]

[Lol]

[Whoa!]

[41% is a bit… unfair, right?]

[41% feels kind of cheap?]

“…Hmm, it’s a contribution rate. It’s not like I cleared it all alone.”

It was possible because Black Lily helped, and the users and Yena contributed as well.

I had to save as much strength as possible compared to the God of Balance, so external help was essential.

Of course, Black Lily might consider it ‘me,’ but the system didn’t seem to recognize it that way.

“Wow! Look at this! The weapon is mythical!”

“Wait, my share is only 0.2%, but legendary equipment set…”

“Ah, a hidden job appeared!!! I can’t believe I finally have a hidden class!!!”

“Dark Fragment? What’s this?”

About twenty users were shouting, looking at the empty air.

The total number of people who participated in the raid was about a hundred when including those who joined midway, but only around twenty survived.

Of course, surviving didn’t mean they gained a lot of shares, but still, given it was a ‘Disaster Level’ boss, the rewards seemed to be rather generous.

By the way, as the distorted space rotated back, the users had returned to their temporary base to check their rewards.

[Lol]

[Everyone is so happy.]

[I envy them; I wanted to participate too.]

[Let’s open it up, Lily.]

[That’s awesome!]

[Though I think some rewards were just handed out for defeating the disaster.]

[Lily, what did you get?]

[It seems like they give everything if you’re a Challenger?]

[So jealous…]

“Ah, I bet everyone basically received something. Even if they didn’t participate in the raid.”

The users have experience defeating at least one undead, whether due to the Celestial Race or for survival.

Defeating the undead meant contributing somewhat to the eradication of disaster.

Of course, compared to directly crossing over to the Demon Realm and battling the demons, those numbers were infinitely low, but surely they also received some amount of experience or items.

“I think after me, Yena might have the highest…”

The Angel Guild also contributed greatly to defeating high-level undead or demons, but it wasn’t comparable to Yena.

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that Yena’s ‘last hit’ was essential.

Surely she gained about 10%?

‘Considering the last hit bonus, there might be more…’

[Jealous]

[Go Yena]

[Yena is a deity! Yena is a deity! Yena is a deity!]

[Last hit…]

[So jealous of the last hit; seems like she got an amazing title too.]

[The big picture is awesome.]

[God Yena!]

[As expected, Yena really got the last hit well, haha…]

[LOL]

[Let’s see the rewards.]

[Rewards, rewards, rewards, rewards.]

“Ah, just a moment for the rewards.”

Since it was a Disaster Level boss, there were a ton of messages.

Although we hadn’t captured the Light’s Disaster yet, it was still considered one of the axes.

[You obtained 6 Dark Fragments.]

[You obtained the Staff of the Dead (Transcendence).]

[Title: One Who Contradicts Life obtained.]

[Greatly increases resistance to death.]

[Title: Immortal obtained.]

[Your physical regeneration increases by 30%.]

[Additionally, you obtained 6 ‘Title Scrolls.’]

[Title Scrolls bind to you upon use and cannot be unbound. Please use them carefully.]

[World Quest’s progress for ‘Truth of Light and Darkness’ has risen.]

[Current progress for ‘Truth of Light and Darkness’ is ‘59%.’]

“…That’s a lot.”

The first thing I received was the ‘Dark Fragment.’

It seems to be part of the power the God of the Dead had, but just holding it made the bad magic attempt to invade my body.

Common users could perhaps use this fragment to change classes to a magic-related job, and if a demon obtained it, they would gain stronger power and flesh.

‘I don’t need it…’

To me, magic only holds toxicity without any value.

I’ll give this to Lasty when she wakes up…

[It’s a staff, it’s a staff.]

[Oh]

[Looks cool, right?]

[Transcendent staff kit!]

[Lol]

[This is insane.]

[Magical Transcendence Master! Haha.]

[The Magic Tower is going to drool over this!]

[Give it to me, Lily!]

A bizarre staff made of dark old wood, with six skull heads mounted on it.

The old tree exuded a considerable amount of power, and faint magic exuded from each of the six skulls with their own unique characteristics.

It’s a transcendent-grade weapon, and perhaps even one better than that. A commoner could rank among the top 10 just by using its automatic functions…

“I can’t use this.”

Creeeak…

Just holding it means magic is seeping in.

Using magic will probably cause even more magic to taint my body and soul.

Of course with the system in place, there’s some degree of protection, but ‘taint’ is probably not the right word; it’s more of a ‘change.’

‘The staff structure changes my body and spirit to handle it more easily.’

The more I handle the staff, the more it would adapt me to magic, and at some point, I might become a demon.

On top of that, I’m not a mage, so there’s no reason for me to use it anyway.

“I’ll need to think about this. If there’s someone worth giving it to, like Lasty, then I’ll let it go… and the titles are the same.”

In addition to the ‘One Who Contradicts Life’ and ‘Immortal’ titles, the other six titles were given in the form of scrolls.

You might wonder why they’re not handed out immediately, but it’s a kind of consideration from the system.

“Those who harbor evil, Essence of Chaos, Duality of Life and Death, Walking Death… and so on.”

All effects of the titles activate under the premise of using ‘magic.’

If the title effects were forced upon me, I would suffer due to the holy power within me.

It could even be seen as a kind of curse, and since I need to receive ‘rewards,’ it’s providing me with options.

“Either I suffer the penalties to obtain the titles, or I don’t use them and pass them on to someone else.”

I had to choose one of the two.

‘This is a system ability, so Lasty probably can’t handle it… should I give it to a user instead?’

I’ll need to ponder this a bit more.

[Give it to me.]

[Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!]

[This means Lily gets almost nothing, right? Haha?]

[What? Lily didn’t get much? Seriously?]

[Lol]

[Lily, boss slayer mafia.]

[What’s with the discrimination?]

[Seriously, what’s the system doing?]

[Discriminating against those with holy power—ㅡㅡ.]

I chuckled as I placed the title scrolls into the Space.

“Well, I can’t help it. I didn’t eradicate it through the quest.”

If I’d hunted the disaster with a contract with the celestial race, I might have received some abilities related to the holy light or powers.

It would be strange to have gone around hunting demons after forming a contract with an angel yet only receive demon abilities.

In fact, among the users who received rewards, only a few had received rewards related to demons.

Over half of the users from Deoen received rewards from the celestial race.

“Now to check my level…”

?

“Eh?”

“What just…?”

“Light just passed by…”

Everyone present felt it.

With the God of the Dead gone and Black Lily rising as the new mistress, she was passionately restoring the world right now.

With the ‘Dark’ disaster gone and only the ‘Light’ disaster remaining wildly.

[Huh?]

A vast light swept across the world.

“Ugh?!”

“L-light…!”

“Lady Lily!”

“What’s happening…?”

Countless starlight beams enveloped the world.

The users instinctively kneeled, and I tried to absorb the starlight to dispel it, but it was of no use.

“…!”

He had already set his hand to work before coming here, and his target wasn’t me.

─O great one who has reached a glorious seat. I send my accolades for your deeds.

You eradicated evil in my stead…

Boom!

It bursts.

The light they had bestowed upon me, a ranker imbued with ‘holy power,’ burst forth uncontrollably.

One ranker who couldn’t even resist seemed to explode.

Soon, other rankers began to burst one by one, and the light surged away toward somewhere.

Only three users without holy power remained.

I clenched the spear tightly, watching the crazy messages roll in.

“…Finally showing their true colors.”

Massacre.

The massacre for balance had begun.
