Chapter 338 · Volume 1

Angel Descends, Target Olivia

Suddenly controlling numerous alternate spaces left Olivia feeling a bit complicated.
She thought for a moment, then simply brought the magic mirror out from her palm and asked directly, “Are there any stories about me circulating in those alternate spaces?”
【Yes, Master. Many stories about you are circulating; your fame has spread from one world to another.】
“Is there anyone who wants to harm me?”
【Yes, there is no doubt about that. Some have even taken action.】
“Who has taken action? Can they truly pose a threat to me?”
【Archil, an angel from the Black World, has already arrived in the main world and is searching for your whereabouts, Master. However, the opponent cannot pose a threat to you because you are more powerful.】
“Wait, an angel has come for me?”
Olivia had originally just been casually asking for information, but she hadn't expected to uncover such a vital lead.
An angel from the Black World, belonging to the Death Sovereign, had actually come looking for her?
She was stunned at first, but after a moment's thought, she felt it was only natural.
Among transcendents, no one could be her opponent anymore. If they wanted to defeat her, they could only deploy an angel.
How strong was an angel? Olivia wasn't entirely clear, as she had never clashed with one before.
Consequently, she couldn't help but frown as she asked the magic mirror, “Are you truly certain this angel won't be a match for me? This is an angel we're talking about.”
【Although angels are blessed by deities and can wield a small amount of divine power, you, Master, have already mastered the laws.】
Hearing the magic mirror say this, Olivia understood.
So wielding a bit of divine power is what makes an angel? Does that mean her previous self also possessed angel-level combat strength?
As for now, having mastered the laws, her combat strength alone might be superior to that of an angel.
Of course, without having actually fought, Olivia didn't dare to be completely certain.
She asked the magic mirror a few more questions, and after learning Archil's location, she ignored him.
To ensure that the attack on her was foolproof and that no information leaked out, Archil certainly wouldn't dare show his face before he found her.
In other words, she could completely leave Archil hanging and just focus on her own business.
So, Olivia continued to lie deep within the earth, waiting for the Laws of the Earth to exert their influence on her.
During this wait, heavy, murmuring voices gradually began to surface in her ears.
Just by listening to those murmurs, she felt as if she were being buried alive.
It was no wonder other Controllers felt extremely uncomfortable when hearing the Divine Language; the influence it brought was substantial.
But for Olivia, it was a different story.
Olivia asked the magic mirror directly, wanting to know the meaning behind those murmurs.
The magic mirror quickly provided a translation.
What appeared in Olivia's ears once again was indeed the Laws of the Earth.
With the magic mirror's translation, Olivia quickly began to comprehend the Laws of the Earth.
In truth, mastering a law required more than just knowing its content; the law had to actively seek one out and murmur in one's ear. Only at such times could one resonate with the law and thus master it.
Therefore, when a law did not take the initiative to find her, Olivia could not rely on the magic mirror to master other laws.
Fortunately, after becoming a Controller, the laws would naturally come knocking. This was an inevitable process.
As long as one mastered laws fast enough, more and more laws would come seeking them out.
Once the number of mastered laws reached a certain point, a transcendent could become a deity.
This was also why so few deities had appeared throughout the long ages from ancient times to the present.
How many Controllers could continuously master laws during this stage?
As Olivia mastered the laws, she couldn't help but think of the existing deities, finding it hard to imagine how they had managed to master so many laws.
She had the magic mirror as her cheat; did the gods have their own cheats as well?
As she grew stronger, the gods seemed increasingly mysterious to her.
Fortunately, no matter how unpredictable or dangerous the gods were, at least the Radiant Goddess was on her side, which was enough to put her at ease.
Time passed minute by minute.
Mastering the Laws of the Earth was not that fast, as it was a far more complex law than the Laws of Ice and Snow, containing too much intricate information.
Olivia stayed buried deep in the ground for an entire month before she gradually finished digesting the Laws of the Earth.
The time she spent comprehending the Laws of the Earth was far greater than the time it had taken her to master the Laws of Ice and Snow.
While she was slowly mastering the laws, the people of the Twilight Council outside were franticly searching for her.
...
“Where is she? Where on earth is she?”
Archil was starting to feel irritable. He had been in the main world for a month, yet he hadn't seen even a shadow of Olivia.
Cian also felt somewhat helpless, but he had indeed used his best means to find Olivia. He had employed every usable forbidden artifact, and in the process, many members of the Twilight Council had suffered backlash from the artifacts and died.
He had done his absolute best.
The problem was that even with the forbidden artifacts, they couldn't find Olivia.
Those artifacts could only point in a general direction, but they had searched that area over and over again without finding any trace of Olivia ever having been there.
It was as if the forbidden artifacts were being influenced by something, pointing them in the wrong direction.
“Could she still be in the divine domain?” Cian couldn't help but speculate.
Hearing Cian say this, Archil also fell into thought.
Olivia was undoubtedly very much favored by the Radiant Goddess. So, it wasn't impossible for her to remain in the Radiant Goddess's divine domain to cultivate even after the exchange in the Twilight Divine Domain had ended.
Thinking of this, Archil couldn't help but feel a bit of despair.
If Olivia stayed in the divine domain and never returned, what could he possibly do about her?
Just as Archil was feeling overwhelmed, someone suddenly burst in and reported loudly.
“My Lords, Olivia has appeared!”
When the news arrived, Archil and Cian were instantly invigorated and hurriedly asked for the exact location.
