Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest -
Chapter 1927: The First Sinner
—–
Hearing his brother’s insane words, the Werewolf King’s fury ignited.
“Bastard! You think you’re strong enough to defy me?! The last time, I left you crying on the floor!” Beowulf roared, attempting to unleash his aura. “And— Aack?!”
The moment he tried, however, his legs buckled. He collapsed to his knees, vomiting blood as searing agony tore through his stomach.
“What were you saying, bro?” Ulric smiled coldly. “Now move… if you don’t want to end up like him. Your turn will come later.”
“You think I’ll let you harm him?” the Vampire Queen hissed, her aura flaring with raw power. “Turn to stone!”
“Huh? W-Wait— what is this? AAAGH!”
Her eyes gleamed with deadly light. In an instant, a potent curse engulfed Ulric, transforming him into a stone statue.
This was the Vampire Queen’s special power: the Eyes of Petrification.
“Hm? Master?”
The heroic spirit glanced at his petrified master, then casually pushed him over. The statue shattered into countless pieces upon hitting the ground.
Just like that, Ulric died.
“Hoh…” The heroic spirit turned back toward them with a faint smile. “How amusing… a petrification ability?”
“Do you want me to do the same to you?!” the Vampire Queen snarled, directing her petrifying gaze at the heroic spirit.
He turned to stone—only to shatter and reform moments later.
“…?!”
“What?!”
“I cannot die,” the heroic spirit declared. “Even without a master, I remain. This Curse—the Curse of God himself—is indestructible. Until I complete my sentence and wander the entire Earth… you cannot kill me.”
“That’s bullshit,” the Vampire Queen spat.
“His master is dead, yet he still remains?” Kaguya muttered in disbelief. “I can feel his aura weakening. His spiritual energy is fading, and he has no mana source left. By all logic, he should have vanished… and yet he persists?!”
“Come on, Master. You share the same punishment as I do—we’re connected,” the man said, his aura surging violently. A vengeful specter bearing Ulric’s form emerged, screaming and howling like a savage beast. “Help me eliminate these pagans, will you?”
“AWOOOOOOO!”
RUMBLE!
The Vengeful Spirit of Ulric swelled into a gigantic monstrosity, roaring and howling as it charged the Vampire Queen and Kaguya. It slammed their bodies against the pavement and dragged them through the ruined city before hurling them into a skyscraper, which exploded on impact.
BOOOMMM!!!
“Hah… The Curse of God runs deep within him. He is a true sinner!” the heroic spirit said, walking toward Beowulf. “Now… shall I finish what I started?”
“Berserker! Enough!”
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
“Guh?!”
A thunderous barrage of slashes engulfed Berserker, carving through his body as purple lightning crackled across his flesh.
“Y-You bastard…!”
His once-rapid regeneration slowed drastically. He barely managed to heal his wounds as he glared at his attacker.
A samurai clad in black kabuto armor and an oni-like mask stood before him.
“Assassin!” Berserker roared, a wild smile spreading across his face. “I’ve been waiting for our rematch!”
“How is this possible?! How have you become so strong?!” Assassin demanded. “It hasn’t been that long… Don’t tell me…!”
“My master fed me the souls of many sinners he sacrificed to God,” Berserker replied. “That increased my power tenfold! I am no longer the same opponent you faced before. The Sins of the Wicked… I have become their vessel!”
Laughing maniacally, he spread his arms. His skinny frame swelled into powerful, muscular bulk as black and red tattoos resembling tormented specters surfaced across his skin. His aura exploded outward, revealing the hundreds of souls he had devoured, all screaming in eternal agony.
“I AM DOING THIS TO REPENT, AFTER ALL! THIS WORLD, THIS SOCIETY—IT’S FULL OF SINNERS!!!”
“And the greatest sinner is you,” Assassin said calmly, unsheathing his katana.
CLAAASH!
Their blades collided, unleashing violent shockwaves of dark energy and purple thunder that shattered the ground and demolished nearby buildings.
“I WILL DRAG THESE SINNERS TO HELL AND DEVOUR THEIR SINS! I WILL BECOME THE ULTIMATE SACRIFICIAL LAMB—THE ULTIMATE MARTYR! AND FROM ME… CHRIST HIMSELF SHALL BE CROWNED GOD!”
“What?!” Yasuke was stunned, unable to comprehend the madness. “Stop tainting the name of God with your foul words! You’re nothing but a specter—a demon!”
Yasuke swung his sword, unleashing dozens of slicing attacks. Thunder scorched the earth as Berserker absorbed every strike with a smile. His body began glowing red until demonic flames erupted around him.
“I AM HUMANITY’S FIRST SINNER, AFTER ALL!!!”
With a deafening roar, he hurled his fists forward, punching straight through Assassin and sending him flying across several Nightmare Realms. The realms shattered, killing the Nightmares within, before Assassin crashed into a distant skyscraper.
BOOOMMM!!!
“I have a duty, Assassin…” Berserker appeared beside him instantly, kneeling down and removing his helmet to reveal his true face. “I must bring HIM back into this world… once more. This time, he will not forgive humanity. He will punish and judge them for their countless sins.”
“Who…! Who are you talking about?!” Assassin asked, struggling.
“Christ brought salvation to all, but you rejected Him,” Berserker smiled. “So… I will bring His opposite. I will bring the ultimate end of humanity, so all you sinners can burn in Hell… for never repenting and never following His sacred words!”
“…?!”
“The Anti-Christ… I shall become his vessel,” Berserker laughed wildly. “All sinners, all pagans, all of you—and especially this disgusting country that worships false gods and idols—you will all burn in Hell… FOR ETERNITY!!!”
“You speak such nonsense…” Assassin slowly rose to his feet, bleeding heavily. “Stop using His name to justify your madness! The Anti-Christ isn’t even something God or Christ created. You’ve twisted everything… You’re the ’first sinner’? Wait…”
“Yeah. He is Cain.”
Another voice interrupted them both. A tall female figure emerged from dark wood and red roses, her body wrapped in sharp, writhing vines. She smiled at them with predatory hunger, licking her lips as if they were exquisite delicacies.
“My eyes can see through all things… the first sinner, Cain—the man who killed his own brother,” she laughed softly. “You have my thanks for weakening the wolf, Cain. I will deal with him later. But for now, devouring you both is my priority… And once I do, my power will grow without limit.”
Her claws surged toward them, radiating an overwhelming, reality-warping presence. Both Yasuke and Cain felt pure dread as the malevolent force closed in.
In that instant, their mutual hatred vanished. They joined hands without hesitation.
Such a being was far beyond even Cain’s understanding.
Her hands, brimming with terrifying power, reached them—
—but only touched afterimages.
Both warriors reappeared behind her, their blades flashing as they sliced through her arms and body, carving her apart in a relentless storm of steel.
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH!
