Chapter 165.2: Alice, I’ll Give My Life For You (2)

It hurt…

Her entire body… hurt.

The medicine and demigod blessings in Alice’s body took effect and healed her injuries quickly.

When Alice finally regained her vision, she realized that everything was over…

She lay in the scorching pit, surrounded by slowly regenerating ruins.

Thereafter, she saw that the Tragic Moon Queen’s imprints were completely empty and she had clearly lost all her strength. She should have been at the end of her rope like Alice…

However, with a snap of her fingers, another 12 imprints were attached to her body.

The Tragic Moon Queen returned to her peak state.

It was effortless.

It was only at that moment that Alice truly despaired…

As for Tragic Moon, she tore through space and abandoned the half-dead Alice to do something more important.

Alice’s heart ached.

She had to use all her strength to extend her hand. However, her hand had already been incinerated by the brilliance of the quadruple imprint bombardment, leaving only a skeleton that emitted the luster of mithril and the faint divine light attached to it…

Without turning back, Tragic Moon walked into the dimensional rift.

“Where are you going… Tragic Moon?”

“Please… don’t… don’t hurt him…”

Alice begged bitterly and tried her best to get up to stop Tragic Moon. However, Alice did not even know if she even had… legs attached to her body right now.

Compared to the heart-wrenching pain all over her body, what made Alice feel even more despair was numbness.

She began to feel no pain.

Her consciousness kept blurring and the serious damage to her body made her unable to move. No matter how much she wanted to stay awake, she could no longer do it.

She was about to lose consciousness.

“Rayne… Rayne…”

At the final moment, Alice cried out her lover’s name in despair with tears in her eyes. Finally… her consciousness fell silent.

…

…

…

After an unknown period of time…

Alice finally woke up gradually.

She opened her eyes slowly and caught sight of a brand new White Light Courtyard as well as the Glorious Dragon beside her.

As for herself, she had already recovered from her serious injuries and her body was intact.

She was dressed in tattered equipment and lay half-naked in the grass beside the dragon nest.

It was as though… she had just taken a nap.

The Glorious Dragon looked at Alice and heaved a sigh of relief. A gentle female voice sounded from the dragon. “Your Majesty Alice, are you alright?”

“Your Excellency Ivan…”

At that moment, Alice’s consciousness was still a little blurry. However, there was only one thought in her mind. “Hurry! Tell me! How long was I out for?!”

The Glorious Dragon replied truthfully, “Your Majesty, you woke up very quickly. You were merely unconscious for less than ten minutes.”

“Ten minutes…”

This answer did not make Alice feel at ease at all. Instead, she felt even more terrified.

How many times could the Tragic Moon Queen kill Rayne in that ten minutes?

“I’m leaving!”

Alice got up from the ground and repaired her clothes with mithril before stumbling into a dimensional rift.

The first thing she did was return to the study where Rayne lived.

However, the scene here made Alice despair.

The study had already turned into ruins that were slowly recovering. There were traces of killing everywhere and it was extremely dilapidated.

Perhaps the entire palace had once been razed to the ground by the Tragic Moon Queen. However, it was being repaired now…

Those were… traces of a battle between demigods.

Indeed, the Tragic Moon Queen had already come.

Alice was burning with anxiety as she searched around the palace desperately.

As she searched frantically in the palace, she released her perception with all her might to envelop her surroundings.

“Don’t die, don’t die, don’t die, don’t die…”

Alice prayed with tears in her eyes. The entire palace was filled with the remnant divine authority of the Tragic Moon Queen. Waves of mighty light burned endlessly, obstructing perception and turning the palace into a gigantic maze.

Heartbroken, Alice merely circled around these obstacles in search of her lover.

Finally, Alice found him.

In the back garden of the palace, Rayne was kneeling on the ground in a patch of flowers while the Tragic Moon Queen stood behind him with a longsword in her hand, seemingly about to execute him.

The next moment, the Tragic Moon Queen raised her sword and slashed at Rayne’s neck.

Alice: “!!!”

That was… the fastest teleportation spell Alice had ever cast in her life.

For the rest of her life, she would not be able to achieve such speed.

A dimensional rift opened instantly and Alice’s figure vanished.

In the blink of an eye, Alice arrived in front of the Tragic Moon Queen. The divine might of the triple crown erupted at the same time and sent the weapon of the Tragic Moon Queen flying.

“Your Highness!”

Alice rushed to Rayne recklessly and hugged her lover.

Rayne smiled. “Alice, you’re here…”

Tears streamed down Alice’s face as she apologized profusely. “I’m sorry, Your Highness. I’m the one who harmed you… Tragic Moon wants to kill you because of me, but it’s fine! It’s fine, Your Highness. I’ll protect you!”

Alice hugged Rayne tightly and blessed him continuously.

“I’ll send you back to Haines, Your Highness. I won’t let you get hurt. I…”

Rayne asked calmly, “Alice, why should I return to Haines?”

“Huh?”

Alice was stunned. “Of course it’s because Leta is no longer safe for you…”

Rayne smiled. At this critical moment, he was still calm. “Alice, are you stupid? You’re only a step away from defeating the Tragic Moon Queen.”

H-How was that possible…

The imprints on the Tragic Moon Queen could be restored at any time. The method of weakening her to defeat her was useless.

Furthermore, Alice no longer had the strength to exhaust the 12 imprints.

Even the triple crown on her body was about to extinguish.

Everything was over!

However, Rayne was still calm. He caressed Alice’s face lovingly and kissed her at this inappropriate moment.

Alice was at a loss, but she did not resist.

This kiss was terrible. Alice’s mouth was filled with the taste of blood and her lips were dry and peeling under the high temperature… There was no longer the sweet and moist taste of the past.

However, Rayne was already satisfied.

After tasting Alice’s lips, Rayne smiled and said, “Trust me, Alice. You’re only one step away from defeating Tragic Moon and becoming the Empress of Leta.”

Alice was confused. “Your Highness… is there still a way for me to turn the tides now?”

“Yes, there is.”

Rayne gazed at Alice gently.

“You’re only lacking a single person to offer sacrifices to the heavens for you.”

The next moment, a mithril ribbon pierced through all the defensive blessings that Alice casted and pierced Rayne’s heart with precision.

Furthermore, it pierced through Alice as well!

The heart-wrenching pain invaded her entire body instantly.

Alice caught sight of the Tragic Moon Queen and the mithril ribbon the latter summoned that pierced through her and Rayne.

The Tragic Moon Queen looked at Alice coldly.

She said, “I’ve already said that all of you will have to die.”

Alice was in despair and tears flowed out of her eyes uncontrollably. She opened her mouth desperately but could not make a single sound.

Her blood fused with Rayne’s blood.Youur f𝒂vorite stories on 𝒏o/(v)𝒆lb𝒊n(.)c𝒐m

Alice’s demigod body was still tenacious. However, Rayne’s eyes were unfocused and he was definitely going to die.

It was his heart that was pierced!

Rayne was going to die…

She could feel the slightest change in the body of the lover in her arms. She could feel the temperature of her lover decreasing continuously, as well as the fact that he was in so much pain that he wanted to speak but was suffocated by the overflowing blood.

The bone-chilling pain almost tore Alice’s soul apart.
