I Was The Hero, But I Woke Up as a Phoenix Princess! – Chapter 755

Chapter 211 Devouring Darkness
The God of Frost, fused with the Heart of Ice, was no longer the incomplete Holder of the past but a complete deity.
Igerth forcefully lifted his pupils, and a dark starry sky awakened before his eyes.
The God of Ice sat high on the throne. The heavy pressure befitting a deity descended with the ice mist, pressing Count Robert and the others to their knees. Their faces revealed intense unwilling and resentment.
They could have sealed this evil god, they could have ended the calamity of this continent, but, but—
Count Robert knelt unwillingly under the divine pressure, his palms gripping the floor tightly. The hard ice cut into his flesh, drawing bright red blood.
“It is you who awakened me?”
A majestic voice resounded from the throne. His body flowed with complete frost laws; it was the gaze of a deity.
Apart from Verafia, this was the first time Igerth had truly gazed upon a deity.
The complete God of Frost possessed the full authority and laws of a deity… Six months ago, what Verafia had severed with her sword was merely his incompleteness. However, above his frost, Igerth could still see a dark starry sky as if trapped in eternal night.
“You have still only usurped the authority of the Frost God… Are you Dixas?” Igerth said.
“Dixas, a name from afar. However, Rielot, twenty years ago, you betrayed me… yet became such a tiny and ridiculous existence.”
The God of Frost’s voice was filled with mockery. “However, since you have awakened me, I can forgive your past betrayal and tell me your request.”
As a divine being, he could easily discern that Igerth had awakened him to expel the will of the deity within the body of the young girl named Verafia.
Although it was not truly the past in every sense, whether as the God of the Starry Sky Dixas or the God of Frost Holder, he possessed the memories of the past.
For the girl named Verafia, the most profound moment in his memory was when the fiery goddess, with her unparalleled beauty, swung her magnificent and brilliant sword.
He could still feel the terrifying pain of being burned by fire.
Even as a complete deity, the gaze of the God of Ice turned cold and distant.
“God of Ice… do you possess the authority of the Ice God and the power of the starry sky?”
Igerth suddenly spoke.
“Are you doubting my ability to contend with the deity within that girl’s body?”
The azure blue in the young man’s eyes evoked a trace of annoyance in the God of Ice. The God of Ice suddenly laughed heartily. The dark starry sky condensed above the frost, bringing decay and destruction. Eternal darkness shrouded everything, with terrifying power that could easily destroy the earth.
“If it were the former Fire God King, I might have retreated. However, why should I care about her, who is merely a residual imprint?”
The wind stirred, mingling with an aura of Darkness and Frost. Igerth’s long robe fluttered, and a satisfied smile suddenly appeared on his face.
“If that is the case…”
The young man’s voice was infinitely elongated in the silent, spacious hall.
Suddenly, Igerth’s body, which was kneeling on the broken floor, trembled. A grey death flame ignited within him. The God of Ice’s eyes widened in shock as the divine pressure bearing down on the young man’s shoulders shattered like crystallized glass.
Igerth stood up under the divine pressure, the grey flames of death igniting on his body. He met the deity on the throne with a calm expression:
“Dixas, I awakened you. Now, you should pay the reward…”
He was not begging this deity to fight Herafir’s will for his girl.
“—Surrender your divine body and the power of the Star God to me!”
A terrifying light erupted from his azure blue eyes. Igerth’s voice seemed to shatter the mountain-like divine pressure in the entire hall.
“Insignificant ant, how dare you be so arrogant!”
The God of Ice’s eyes filled with horror. With his roar, the frost laws surging throughout the world moved, and an ice-cutting scythe instantly pierced the black death flames swirling around Igerth’s body.
Brilliant divine radiance surrounded Igerth. He took out a dark red star stone from his ring, its sharp edges piercing his flesh as he forcefully placed it into his chest.
In the past, as Lichen, Igerth had borrowed the Sacred Sword to cut a Star Core Stone from Dixas’s shattered half-body.
The ice scythe descended the next moment, and runes lit up around Igerth.
“This is—” the God of Ice’s voice became horrified.
The frost, formed from the ice heart that constituted the deity’s entire body, lit up with the same runes.
Igerth revealed a smile. Under the frost scythe, the ice-crystal luster reflected, appearing cold and desolate.
From the very beginning, Igerth had never intended to beg for this deity’s power. As Tais said, the God of Ice brought calamity to the entire world. How could he dare entrust the girl’s safety to an evil god?
Not to mention, Igerth’s True Sight Eye could clearly see the fleeting fear and hatred in the God of Ice’s eyes when discussing Verafia.
Six months ago, Anderdun and Igerth’s plan was to seize this deity and use his power to save his girl.
With the aid of the Heart of Ice and the Star Core Stone dropped by Dixas, and as a Star God himself, Igerth was sufficient to face his starry sky!
“Boom!”
The ice scythe pierced through. Igerth opened his eyes. Before him, he was already enveloped in endless darkness. Above the starry sky, a ferocious and evil will was tearing at him.
“You… Rielot, traitor, you are delusional!!”
As if in eternal darkness, a clumsy voice was filled with endless anger and endless fear.
—
Winterfall City was shrouded in endless frost. The sounds of battle between frost dependents and human warriors reverberated through the storm of demonic power and spells. Even Shiel, far outside the city, couldn’t help but worry.
The noble young girl with blue and pink long hair knelt in the carriage. Her pure white hands were clasped in a cross over her chest. Her light golden eyes gazed from afar at the ice-sealed city and the palace in its center, also frozen by frost.
“I wonder how Brother Azer and Igerth are doing?”
Shiel clasped her hands together and prayed silently. Originally, she wanted to go to Winterfall City, but she was asked by Igerth to stay in the carriage and take care of Verafia for him.
“Miss Verafia…”
Shiel turned her face towards the beautiful girl in a soft, pure long dress. Her delicate eyelashes were slightly lowered, and soft light adorned her pure white skin. She looked like a serene princess entering a dream.
She sighed. Her slender fingers gently reached out, wanting to tidy a stray lock of golden hair for the girl.
At this very moment, the ground suddenly seemed to tremble, and Shiel almost fell. Her startled light golden eyes saw the entire sky freeze over with frost in an instant.
The bone-chilling cold was palpable. Even though Verafia’s carriage had a fire formation inscribed by a high-level mage, capable of isolating any chill, Shiel couldn’t help but shiver.
