Grim Reaper in the Apocalypse: Reaping Immortals

The White Canzer paled even whiter under the Queen's pressure. The Prince tried his hardest to defend against it, but even he was helpless under her wrath.

'It's been a long time…I spent an eternity trying to search for you. When the Huntsman failed, I thought I would never get my revenge in this lifetime. And I was okay with that. I was fine with it.

But why did you have to show your face to me again? Did you think I wouldn't chase you anymore? You should have taken good care of that mirror and spent your eternity in hiding.'

The Queen spoke with an almost tired voice. Spending an eternity trying to chase the White Canzer seemed to put a major toll on her. It even looked as if she was disappointed in the White Canzer because of how careless she was.

'I didn't…I didn't want to! Say, you wouldn't happen to still be mad about our small spat, right? Surely you must have forgiven me after all this time…'

As expected of the White Canzer, she tried to manipulate her way out of a dangerous situation. Unfortunately for her, the Queen was in no mood to deal with her shenanigans.

The Queen slapped the White Canzer, sending her flying through the dark forest.

The Prince tried to fight back, but he was also sent flying away towards the White Canzer. They both crashed into the same spot, with the Prince crushing his 'princess' under his weight.

'Get off me!'

'Sorry, my love.'

And if she had any thoughts of using this opportunity to run away, the Queen immediately used her strange dark powers to pull the two star-crossed 'lovers' back towards her.

These two Specialist-level Canzers stood no chance against her powers. They were being dragged around like a ragdoll.

Atlan watched on with amazement and fear. He never expected the Queen to be this strong. He thought that all of them would be at the same level, meaning that if they fought, it could end up in a three-way tie where they all killed each other. Read exclusive adventures at empire

He thought she'd be as strong as the Huntsman, but his estimation of the Queen was wrong. She was more than strong enough to kill the White Canzer and the Prince with ease.

She could even kill Atlan with just a flick of a finger if she wanted to.

Atlan wondered what kind of monster he unleashed into the Remedium.

"Atlan, just stay still. Let the Queen deal with those two, while you try to escape. Ninth and the others are probably already on their way towards you."

Although he was wary of the Queen, he didn't think she harbored any ill will towards him. After all, he was the one who led her towards the White Canzer. If anything, she should be grateful to Atlan for giving her a chance to settle her grudge.

"Come on…you can sneak out right now."

To Carmine's dismay, Atlan had no intention of running away.

"Why aren't you running away?!?! This is the chance you've been waiting for, right? It's the sole reason why you summoned her!"

"I want to witness this fight."

"You what?!?!?!"

Carmine had no idea that Atlan had ambitions towards this fight. He didn't go through all that trouble with the White Canzer and the Prince just for him to get no rewards.

He will use the Queen to kill the White Canzer and the Prince, allowing him to reap their deaths in the process.

If he left now, he wouldn't be able to get those benefits.

Although it was risky, it was worth it. After all, these were Specialist-level Canzers. He had already seen what kind of power they could give him.

Meanwhile, the White Canzer knew that this was her last stand. She immediately used up all the excess powers in her body and summoned a giant needle and a ball of yarn.

The needle moved with lightspeed as it stitched body after body, not stopping until it completed seven figures that were similar but distinct from each other.

These were the seven deadly puppets.

The White Canzer didn't want to summon them before because it took a toll on her, but the Queen's threat was not something she could underestimate.

Each of these puppets had the strengths of a Specialist-level Canzer. They were the White Canzer's full strength. With all of their combined powers, they could easily deal with most Canzers like the Huntsman.

The Prince decided to use his full power as well. His horse rose through the dead trees and arrived just behind him.

He mounted the horse, and their combined powers created a powerful aura that was enough to melt the trees around them. His full metal armor turned even sturdier, making the Prince feel as if nothing could penetrate his defense.

The seven puppets and the Prince attacked the lone Queen.

The puppets beamed their magic towards her. As it traveled through the air, they bent reality to their attributes, giving inanimate objects their own personalities.

The Queen simply waved her hand, creating a dark portal in front of her. This opening was like a black hole, sucking in everything that it touched.

Once the puppets' magic reached the ball, they were absorbed into the black hole and disappeared forever.

The White Canzer paled once she saw this.

Meanwhile, The Prince paid no heed to this. He raised his courageous spirit to the point that it became a tangible aura. It spiked up to a point, creating a giant halberd in his hands.

And with this halberd, the Prince charged towards the Queen.

The weapon hit the black hole, creating sparks. This gave the Prince hope.

But once the halberd started to disperse into mere particles and absorbed into the portal, the Prince finally realized the difference in strength between them.

He quickly changed his route at the last second and abandoned his horse. Its fate was a gruesome one, as it got spaghettified once it reached the black hole.

The Queen took their strongest attack with nothing but a single spell.

'Is this all you got?'
