*All characters appearing are adults.

The moment when Leah was determined to defeat Harpy.
Arrieta was engaged in a fierce battle with Vesta, the sixth of the ten goddesses.

A feast of ice and fire.
One side of the whole frozen world.
The other side of the world is all on fire.
Two worlds, opposite to each other, spread out in the forest.
In that forest, demons and goddesses are clashing.

-Uuuuu!

Ice giants with only big eyes wielded clubs and charged at the goddess.
A race that was once a member of the Demon Tribe, but became extinct due to the slaughter of humans and angels.
Arietta created giants called 〈 Ogre 〉.
A group of ogres that appeared as Arrieta saw in her book.
Although it is not a living being, the appearance of rushing forward with a shout is comparable to that of the previous life.

The group of ogres that were rushing in like that were severed.
The upper body, which boasted a massive body, all fell to the ground, and the lower body stood still.
The ice blocks that were a group of ogres melted in an instant.

-Kieheek!

A group of giant spiders made of ice rushes in waves.
A spider called 〈 Tula 〉.
They live in groups just like ants, and are said to have lived mainly in mountainous areas.
In a way, it may have been an existence that could be incorporated into the demon army, but unfortunately it has long since become extinct.
This is because they were also massacred by the indiscriminate massacre of humans and angels.
All that remains is a picture of them.

Arrieta created a group of tula on the spot based on the drawing.
At the command of their master, the group of spiders roared and rushed towards the enemy.
Towards the goddess in silver armor with red hair that reached down to her waist.
Baring her fangs, she charges.

Even those spiders became water.
Everything was melted by the super-high flame that the goddess Vesta gave off as she swung her sword.

-Kikii Iik!

A huge ground dog made of ice appeared.
It tried to crush Vesta with its huge forelimbs, but before that, her head was severed.

-Hey hey hee hee!

A herd of mammoths made of ice charges.
A herd of mammoths tried to trample her goddess with their huge front claws.
Before she could step on it, everything was shattered by Vesta’s swinging sword.

-Uuuuu!

Like the ogres, the most courageous orc group,

-Keeeee

The huge flock of eagles that once commanded the skies and instilled fear in all who lived on earth,

-Seeeee

The giant snake, which is said to have swallowed an entire village,

-Ooh oh oh!

Even the nameless demon hero known to have dealt with millions of human soldiers single-handedly,

All fell down
The beings who made their name in the world in the past, the beings that Arrieta made into ice and descended into reality again, all fell.
Everything was melted by the sword of fire wielded by the goddess.

“Ha, ha, ha… Damn it.”

Arrieta took a deep breath.
Because of her constant creation of her own minions, there was not much of her magical power left in her.
Arrieta’s body trembled as evidence that her mana was running out.
She never thought that she would be cornered even though she fought this far.
In the crisis she is experiencing for the first time in her life, Arrieta did not know what to do.
‘To think that all of my troops melted away.’

Those summoned by Arrieta are all ghosts of the past.
A ghost that no longer exists in this world.
Arrieta came to know these ghosts through his books.
While reading the book, Arrieta came to know how powerful these specters were.

So it was made.
He turned any foe into his own ice corps that could be turned into a massacre.
Arrieta made a lot of contributions because he used that corps.
The collapse of Flosh, which was not easy to capture, was possible because Arrieta used this ice corps.

The legion was defeated.
The sword that the goddess wielded melted away in vain.
The Ice Legion, which boasted of invincibility, became water that moistened the earth.

‘It must be fire.’

The reason it broke is simple.
This is because the attribute of the goddess Vesta is fire.
The worst conflict for Arrieta, who has a frozen attribute.
When the bracket was finalized, the outcome was obvious.

Of course, Arrieta doesn’t lose just because she has the fire attribute.
Arrieta is a skill that surpasses compatibility to the extent that she can freeze fire attacks from enemies in reverse.
The idiots who attacked assuming that their weakness was fire were all turned into ice statues by Arrieta.

But Vesta is different.
Vesta is a different being.
She is a very powerful foe that cannot be compared to the idiots she has dealt with so far.
In a way, it was only natural for the Ice Legion to collapse under the flame attack of such an enemy.

And Vesta doesn’t just use fire.

“Keugh!”

Something comes
Arrieta immediately rolled his body to the side.
Her thick, hot liquid dripped where she had been.
The liquid melted the grass and even the ground.

Vesta summoned her lava mass and dropped it.

‘Is something like that possible?’

Wasn’t the fire attribute dealing with dissatisfaction?
Arrieta couldn’t even imagine that he could handle lava.

‘I have to dig in.’

All that remains is to engage in hand-to-hand combat and defeat them.
She knew very well that it would be difficult to win even in hand-to-hand combat through several battles, but there were no other options left for Arietta.

Evil demons gather in Arrieta’s hands.
Evil Magi turns into a large orb.
The sphere is filled with a chill that freezes you to the bone.
When Arrieta threw the two spheres, a great storm erupted.
A storm of sharp ice shards engulfed Vesta.

“Do something useless…”

Vesta snorted.
He clearly has the upper hand, and yet another attack like this. Do you still not understand that there is no meaning?
Vesta began to focus his magical energy on his left hand.
A sphere the same size as Arietta’s was held in her left hand.
The difference is that, unlike Arrieta, Vesta’s is full of flames.
As Vesta rolled the orb on the floor, a great storm erupted.
A storm of fire became a shield and swallowed the ice storm.
A meeting of fire and ice.
The collision of two opposite properties results in water vapor.
It was only for a moment, but the whole area was covered with pure white fog.

‘Now!’

Aiming for that gap, Arrieta rushed in.
In both of her hands, claws made of ice were inserted.
With her sharp claws, Arrieta threw her fists as hard as she could towards her target.
The blow aimed at Vesta’s head,

“What?”

I was caught in vain.

“You attacked with all sorts of weapons, but this time with claws? No matter how much I change my weapon, it’s useless…”

Vesta blocked the attack that was aimed at her with both hands.
He didn’t even show a hint of hardship.
I just put on a face that says I’m bored and annoyed.
It was in stark contrast to Arrieta, who was perplexed.

“If I get rid of this cheeky hand, will it calm me down?”

Arietta’s claws began to melt as Vesta applied strength to her hands.
Arrieta quickly removed her claw.
If it was even a second too late, her Arrieta hand would have disappeared from this world along with her claw.
Arrieta immediately made another weapon.

Her weapon is a sword.
It is a sword made of ice.
The distance is narrow, so a sword is better than a spear.
Arrieta swung her sword at Vesta’s neck.

-Chaeeng!

“Ugh!”
“You stupid bastard. How many times do I have to tell you that this doesn’t work?”

Arrieta’s sword melted.
Half of the sword disappeared on the spot as soon as it collided with Vesta’s sword.
Even a sword made of unbreakable ice had no meaning in front of the goddess’ weapon.

-Chaeeng! Chaeeng! Chaeeng! Chaeeng!

A one-sided attack unfolded.
Arrieta’s weapons made of ice melted away as she created them.
The attempt, which she considered the only way out, put Arietta in her corner.
To seize the initiative, Arrieta seeks her chance, but she is nowhere to be seen.

“Caught.”
“Oh, no!”

In the end, Arietta got to the point where she couldn’t make her weapon.
Vesta did not miss this opportunity.
She immediately raised her right fist to her.
Vesta’s fist covered in flames,

“Cheuk?”

It hit Arrieta’s stomach.

A simple blow.
However, with just that blow, the surroundings turned to ashes.
Everything that lived around here was burnt away.
Only Arrieta, covered in her dust, lay there.

“Cool, cool, cool!”

Arrieta raised her body in her case.
Arrieta was alive despite being hit with her colossal blow.
Her blood flowed from her mouth, her body was full of burn marks, and her black uniform she was wearing was burnt and tattered, but her life did not end.

Haha, why are you so empty?”

But, why can’t I put strength in my legs like this?
Why is there a dark red puddle under her own legs?
Why is there something like flesh floating around?
Arrieta lowered her gaze to her anxious mind.

“Ah…”

There is a hole.
A hole is drilled in her own belly.
Her intestines inside her are all pierced as well.
Dark red blood is spitting out from her hole.
Now, Arrieta could understand why her legs were weak.

“Wow, she survived that. The children of the Demon King are really persistent.”

Arrieta raised her head at the sound of her mocking self.
Vesta was looking at Arietta with her arrogant attitude.

“If she had died, she would have gone very comfortably, but how is it, isn’t it so painful because she is alive?”
“Ugh…”
“Well, I’ve never experienced anything like that before, so I don’t know how painful it is, but ahahaha!”
“This guy…”

Vesta laughed loudly.
Arrieta was very angry at the insult to herself.
She immediately gathered her remaining magic power and created her ice spear.
I threw the spear as hard as I could, intending to smash Vesta’s head.

“She still doesn’t know that it’s useless, her learning ability sucks.”

It melted.
Just with Vesta hitting her hand, the ice window was blocked in vain.

“Damn it.”

Angry too upset
Arrieta had never been so angry.
She always overpowered and played with her enemies, but she never thought she would be the opposite.
I never thought I would get messed up like this.
Even though she was a goddess, she thought that Junice could deal with her like her older sister, so the shock she received from Arietta was very great.

But more than shocked, she was most angry,

“I have to kill you and go to kill the children of the other demon kings as well. Unlike you, I wonder how much he will play.”
“You…”
“Even a minor creature has family love. It may not be as good as us.”

She openly screams that she will kill her family in front of him.
In her mind, Arietta wanted to bite Vesta’s neck.
Wanted to make that her goddess who insulted her own family her munchkin.

Arrieta still had her last chance to make it that way.

“…”

Arrieta took her small bottle from her pocket.
A glass barrel specially designed to be unbreakable under any circumstances.
The vial contained a green drug.

‘I secretly took it for torture…’

It is a medicine made for the great goddess.
Diana and General Viper created it by analyzing Minerva’s blood.
In theory, taking this drug would give her goddess-like powers.
Right now, she has tremendous regenerative powers to the extent that she can instantly fill up the hole in Arietta’s body.
Drugs with such amazing efficacy were distributed to each representative race,

Except for one bottle that Arrieta had, all were discarded.
The reason is simple.

Because the side effects are so severe.
Each representative race gathered volunteers to test the drug, and those who participated in the test ran out of control without exception.
I couldn’t control my excitement, so I fell into madness, and in the end I had no choice but to deal with them.

‘Ah, I can’t. Destroy them all.’

Upon hearing this news, Eris ordered the destruction of the drug and everything related to the experiment.
I made it necessary, but it means nothing if I can’t control it.
The heads of representative races also did not object to the demon king’s opinion.
This is because they have seen firsthand how serious the side effects of the drug can be.

Arrieta secretly took such drugs.
I thought it would be fun to use on her real mother who became a pet, so I got it for personal use.

Arrieta herself, not her mother, was forced to use the drug she took.

‘Are you okay? Maybe I’m going crazy?’

Those who took drugs became psychopaths.
Caught in madness, they all went mad.
Can you survive taking a drug with such terrifying effects?
Arrieta hesitated for a moment.

But that was only for a moment.
Arrieta immediately opened the lid.

“What’s the matter? Eat quickly. Even if I try, it won’t work on me at all.”

It’s not just because he’s provocative.

‘I have to defeat him here.’

If I don’t take him down, my family is in danger.
You have to protect your precious family from that cheeky goddess.
You can’t lose all of your family that you finally got because of a goddess like this.

And he has long since fallen into madness.
Is there anything wrong with a person falling into madness becoming more mad?

So eat.
Arrieta closed her eyes tightly and gulped down the drug.

And,

“Kuuuuu!”

A tremendous amount of demonic energy erupted from Arrieta’s body.
