I've Become the King of Villains in the Game

He grasped the Ivory Engraved Cross Sword with both hands, pointing it straight to the sky. The white-scaled serpent previously coiled around his right arm coiled up the sword hilt.

The serpent flicked its tongue, and behind the gleaming sword blade, gray-white hair swayed. That eye faintly gazed at the Sun King and spoke:

"Emperor Andre, you cannot kill me..."

Under the Sun King's fiery eyes, a shadowy expression flashed.

He couldn't comprehend what this power was at all.

Despite being merely a Demigod, the King in Azure hadn't truly integrated the authority, yet could maintain peak combat power just like him all the time...

No, he couldn't; he simply couldn't be killed!

The Sun King's eyes immediately narrowed.

Although he didn't understand why the King in Azure could endlessly resurrect and restore himself, the opponent absolutely couldn't maintain perfect strength like he could, ignoring any means.

Just needed to imprison him to solve it...

As the thought formed, the Angels attacking drew Sun King's attention back.

A wave of terrifying shock ensued.

This time, amidst the fierce battle, the Sun King yet again grievously wounded a black-robed Angel, the third one he'd repelled while being outnumbered six to one!

Bystanders, including the remaining Angels, had to admit that the reason Emperor Andre could unify the continent and dominate for thousands of years was not merely due to radiant paternal glory...

But rather his own immensely powerful battle will and strength!

"Unfortunately, no matter how glorious the era and monarch, an end is inevitable."

Cat God Maggie squatted atop the Holy Tree, speaking lightly.

In the next second.

The King in Azure re-entered the fray.

He blinked behind the Sun King, raising the Cross Sword to stab straight at the back of his heart!

And this strike contained Chen Lun's most powerful strength at this stage.

The sword tip gathered a continuously spinning crystalline cube, while invisible strings surrounded the sword blade.

In the stance of the King in Azure, boosted by the King of Slaughter.

He was convinced that this strike could indeed be the final straw, completely exacerbating the Sun King's leg injuries and causing his entire body to collapse!

Three black-robed Angels' scimitars closed in, the powers of the Three Ladies of Pain simultaneously fell, and the Sun King's ram head body already appeared golden and semi-transparent, covered with cracks.

Dagon and the Scroll Keeper, unwilling to see the Sun King fall like this, deliberated repeatedly, unable to resist taking action to help.

While the Cat God and Gatekeeper kept their eyes on the two, ready to intervene and stop them.

At this critical moment.

Buzz!!!

A terrifyingly extreme aura descended in an instant.

The Spirit World's azure view suddenly turned entirely white, dazzling white.

The light on the celestial canopy was intense.

A pure white blazing sun, sufficient to cover the entire sky of the Spirit World, rose slowly, the scorching brilliance enveloping everyone!

"Fierce... Fierce Father?!"

"Sun God!!"

The Saints watching heightened their voices, their hearts halting in shock.

The Angels too couldn't help but pause.

The arrival of Fierce Father was far more astonishing than Mrs. Rose's prior appearance.

Because...

This was the strongest True God.

The eternal solar presence across the Anita Continent!

"Emperor Andre cannot die in battle!"

"The King in Azure and Three Ladies of Pain are finished!"

The Saints couldn't help but be seized by these thoughts.

The Sun King raised his head, and the heart filled with killing intent calmed instantly. Gratitude and reverence shone in his eyes, finally calling out:

"My Lord..."

"Die!!!"

The King in Azure remained unaffected by the arrival of Fierce Father, continuing to stab the Cross Sword towards the Sun King's rear heart.

Thud—

The Cross Sword pierced through the chest, golden blood splattering.

The azure crystallization crept onto the chest and abdomen, invisible strings radiated, and the Sun King stared astoundedly at his left chest where the beating golden heart had been divided into tens of thousands of parts.

"!!"

Everyone was stunned.

The King in Azure...

How did he still dare to act recklessly?!

Was he truly insane!

Soon, the Angels came to their senses.

"Run fast! Escape to the Old Spirit Realm!!"

Cat God Maggie shouted in shock.

Among the stunned gazes of the Three Ladies of Pain, Gatekeeper Fleurette, and all Angels, Maggie urged the golden branches with all her might, attempting to grow a protective "Canopy" above the King in Azure.

Yet in the next moment.

Pure white light descended gently, ahead of Maggie, radiating towards the King in Azure.

This beam was the purest light in the world, impossibly fast in speed and overwhelming in strength, bringing despair.

The Angels present, none had time or ability to stop it.

None were capable of preventing it.

"Light is the God's bird, swift in the world, unmatched."

But then another beam of light appeared, shooting straight from the horizon.

In the midst of everyone's astonishment.

They only saw a figure with steel wings on the back, blocking above the King in Azure, backlit, holding the bright Beheading Sword, bearing an exuberant smile.

"I won't personally kill my own father, nor do I wish to see my friends die right before me, Jack, may you and I always be with the light..."

Arno said, but managed to utter only half a sentence:

"Illuminates endlessly, until—"

Buzz!!

Proud Sun's body flaked off piece by piece, bit by bit, transforming into specks of light.

He disappeared in the pure white glow...

It was as if he had entirely become part of the light.

Just like the credo throughout his life.

Hunting darkness, until eternity, shining boundlessly, until perishing.

Forever with light.

The Proud Sun fell!

His death did not completely stop the pure white beam.

But it bought the King in Azure a moment of time.

This moment was Arno's gift of a sliver of hope for his friend Jack!

He believed that Jack could blink to the Old Spirit Realm with the Spirit World's authority.

Chen Lun's pupils trembled incessantly.

Actually, everything was in his plan, including Fierce Father's intervention!

But...

He never expected that Arno would sacrifice himself to save him!

Inner repression and pain caused Chen Lun to let out an involuntary growl, his roar growing more intense, turning into a shriek.

"Die!!!"

He chose not to run away.

Instead, he propelled forward with determination, infusing Strength solely to kill the Sun King!

Crunch crunch crunch...

The azure crystallization rapidly spread over Emperor Andre's body.

Yet the Emperor's face showed no imagined ferocity; instead, he became calm, even showing pain in his eyes.

At last, he closed his eyes and said:

"Well done, Arno, you never forgot my teachings..."

The Sun King smiled.

"Shining boundlessly, until perishing!"

Crack!

His body was entirely crystallized into a statue!

Golden light shot forth from every visible surface.

The white light in the sky fell subsequently.

The King in Azure reverted to human form, removed his hat, looked upward, and amidst innumerable cries, faced his fate calmly and bravely.

And in the final moment, a graceful figure in a black dress blinked from the circular portal, leaping into the arms of the King in Azure.

They exchanged smiles.

Simultaneously vanished into void...
