Chapter 319 - 320: Laney Claims the Crown!
Not only Milos, even the Angel of Judgment in the sky, as well as the two Totem Ninth Tier angels behind Gabriel and Leah, all turned their gaze towards Aster Grant, their eyes full of astonishment.
Earlier, when Aster Grant was hidden among the crowd and released the Destruction Law, his aura was somewhat obscure, and they did not perceive it clearly.
But now, their attention was completely captured by Aster Grant!
Although the barrier released by Milos isolated the people around, it had no effect before this group of Totem Ninth Tier powerhouses.
Through this barrier, they could distinctly feel....
The Guardian Law that enveloped Laney on the stage originated from the presence shrouded in a black robe beside Lady Lazuli.
And since the Guardian Law released by Laney was from this person, then the Destruction Law must be....
Realizing this, the Angel of Judgment almost instantly entered the isolated domain released by Milos.
After nodding slightly towards Lazuli who was nestled beside Aster Grant, he then turned his head to look at Milos, his tone full of confusion:
"Milos, the one beside Lady Lazuli is...?"
And after hesitating for a moment, Milos...
Still told all about Aster Grant’s identity, as well as his relationship with Lazuli.
After all, the Angel of Judgment is responsible for the selection of the Angel Race’s heir.
The relationship between Lazuli and Aster Grant could not possibly remain concealed from him.
Moreover, as the judge of this selection, the Angel of Judgment must not show bias towards any side...
Therefore, Milos laid out everything without reservation.
And after hearing Milos’s explanation, the Angel of Judgment looked at Aster Grant with utter shock.
This is a human!
Neither he nor Lady Lazuli belongs to this world?
Moreover, the relationship between the two is master and Beastbond?!
This series of revelations left the seasoned Angel of Judgment momentarily stunned.
It took him a while to slowly come back to his senses.
Within the Angel Race, each of the Totem Ninth Tier has their own responsibilities.
And he, as the Angel of Judgment, oversees the selection of the heir.
Therefore, he has the most knowledge about the God of Angels.
The God of Angels possesses two abilities, which are Destruction and Guardian!
Exactly like this human!
Moreover, he knows an extremely secretive piece of information.
Which is....
The God of Angels does not seem to be originally from the Angel World!
Added to the identity of Aster Grant and Lazuli as outsiders....
The Angel of Judgment finds it difficult not to associate the two with the God of Angels!
His eyes wander around Aster Grant.
Yet he discovers...
This seems to be just an ordinary human, without any special features.
His level is only Monarch Tier One, and his aura isn’t very overwhelming either....
He wants to inquire about the Guardian Law and Destruction Law, but seeing Aster Grant’s attention entirely fixed on the stage.
He can only suppress such thoughts for now, waiting for the battle to end.
And on the stage, Laney is quietly perceiving the warm and magnificent power flowing within her.
The Guardian Law, starkly different from the violent Destruction Law, feels natural in her hand, as if it was a part of her body.
She gently closes her palm, and a golden Holy Sword, purely condensed from the Guardian Law, quietly manifests.
The light flows, holy and dignified.
Surprisingly, the Holy Sword condensed from the Guardian Law faintly exhibits a fierce attack——
This scene even makes Aster Grant, who created this law, pause involuntarily.
He clearly feels, as Laney wields the Guardian Law, that she controls it almost instinctively, without needing extra guidance from him.
Moreover, the most crucial point is, Laney’s usage of the Guardian Law is entirely different from Lazuli.
When Lazuli uses the Guardian Law, her entire focus is on protection.
But Laney is not alike!
Aster Grant frowns lightly, but quickly relaxes his expression.
Apparently, even using the same law, different people can manifest different effects.
The sole purpose of Lazuli using the Guardian Law is to safeguard his safety!
Yet Laney’s Guardian Law seems more like guarding everything.....
Him, family, and even the entire Angel Race!
This doesn’t necessarily mean Lazuli’s utilization of the Guardian Law is inferior to Laney.
It’s merely that their beliefs are completely different, leading to various outcomes.
Aster Grant’s gaze falls on Laney on the stage.
Evidently, the Guardian Law is the law most compatible with Laney!
Upon the stage.
The Totem Level angel now shows a terrified expression.
He specializes in the Shadow Law, known for sneak attacks, but under the overwhelming golden holy radiance, he stands out with nowhere to hide, and his offensive crumbles entirely.
The Guardian Law builds an absolute defense for Laney, and further grants her the capital to attack while defending.
Laney, having regained her composure, tightens her gaze.
Her eight wings suddenly transform into pure gold, and the Holy Sword in her hand suddenly flares with golden brilliance.
The Guardian Law fully erupts!
High-level law possesses a strong suppressive ability against low-level laws.
The Guardian Law’s full eruption causes the Shadow Law of the angel to stagnate suddenly.
Seeing this, Laney naturally won’t miss the opportunity.
In the next moment, her figure suddenly vanishes, like light fading into shadow, appearing again with the golden sword edge lightly placed on the angel’s neck.
"Surrender!"
Laney’s voice is cold and concise, without any unnecessary dragging.
The Totem angel instinctively glances towards Gabriel——
Gabriel’s face is iron-green, with a gaze dark as ice, he trembles all over, gritting his teeth saying:
"I won’t..."
Before the words were finished, Laney’s golden Holy Sword pressed down abruptly!
The vast Power of Guardian fell like a mountain, forcing the angel’s knees to buckle, bending him down into a kneel!
With Aster Grant’s multiple augmentation, Laney’s attributes weren’t below ordinary Totems, coupled with the suppressive power of the Guardian Law...
Since the moment this angel failed to attack, the defeat had already been sealed.
"Concede!"
Laney speaks again.
The angel attempts to struggle, but on meeting Laney’s unwavering gaze,
The cold edge of the sword on his neck dispels the last bit of resistance.
Their powers were entirely not in the same realm.
"I... concede."
With these words, his body loses all strength, dropping his head in defeat, without any desire to fight back.
With this Totem Level angel’s concession, the grand competition of the Angel Race officially draws to a close.
The voice of the Angel of Judgment resonates through the venue like a bell:
"Victor——Laney!"
Instantly, the venue erupts in astonishment!
No one anticipated that this grand competition would conclude with such an unexpected result——
"Who exactly is this Laney? She emerged from nowhere, triumphant!"
"To defeat two Totem Level adults with just the power of Monarch Tier Nine... this is unheard of!"
"What’s more frightening is that she simultaneously controls both Guardian and Destruction Laws! Could she be the reincarnation of the God of Angels?!"
Amidst the discussions, people began speculating about her next choice:
"Having won now, the next step is challenging the heir... who do you think she will choose?"
"It must be Lady Lazuli! She is the weakest, the victory chance is the highest!"
"I think so too! If I were her, I’d choose her!"
