Demi-human Girls Completion Manual Chapter 1736 - 143: Companions on the Journey

"...Ah, you little guy really know how to comfort people."
Emhardt, standing on Fisher’s shoulder, looked at the little Alicia in Fisher’s arms, sighed, and said, while she just blinked blankly, still reached out to pat Fisher’s back, not knowing exactly what she said that was comforting, but it seemed good to do so, so she continued to do it.
Emhardt glanced at Fisher and then at the direction of the beach behind them, originally meant for a honeymoon but now completely destroyed, sweeping a look over Fisher and the Cardinal of Destiny behind him, asked,
"So, what do we do next? Are we just going to stay here and wait for Elizabeth to catch us back?"
The Cardinal of Destiny said nothing, just looked at Fisher squatting on the ground. He was silent for a moment, then his voice seemed somewhat revived from its previous dullness. He let go of Alicia in front of him and said hoarsely,
"...We need to deal with this chaos. We can’t let Elizabeth’s plan succeed."
"Ugh, sounds pretty difficult. She has that shadow of Pandora now; who can defeat her? Why not contact Moli’s mother and ask the Ocean Emperor to help us out? The world is about to be destroyed; she’s the strongest in the world but just stays at the sea floor, isn’t that inappropriate?"
Emhardt, like a strategist, advised Fisher, but the Cardinal of Destiny shook his head, moved to stand behind Fisher, and spoke to him,
"Emperor Xuan Shen has her reasons for not leaving the ocean. During the Mythical War thousands of years ago, she suffered unhealable dark injuries that likely haven’t recovered even now..."
"Ah, physical injuries that last for thousands of years? So exaggerated?"
"Of course it’s not physical wounds, it’s the wounds in the [Law], ugly monster."
Seemingly in revenge for Emhardt calling her "Old woman," the current address from the Cardinal of Destiny was quite aggressive,
"Reaching the Twentieth Rank for a demigod implies the ’limits of living creatures,’ more commonly put, such a being somewhat has the embryonic form of a divine. You probably know the power or nature possessed by the gods is referred to as [Authority]. The embryonic form of Authority is what laws the demigods have uniquely. Laws have similar nature to Authority, so to some extent demigods are also rejected by the world, much like how the world rejects gods.
"That is why the World Tree, Dragon God, and Heavenly Lock resided on the outskirts of the world before the Mythical War, and Xuan Shen as well. Her location at the sea trench is closest to the Main God and also closest to the center of the Spirit Realm’s edge. However, battling simultaneously against three demigods during the Mythical War left irreparable gaps in her law, making her unable to continue living after the war. Especially when engaging in conflict with other divine authorities (chaos), the nature of mutual rejection among authorities will infinitely enlarge the gap in her law, until her law is completely shattered...
"Authority is not only the strength of the god but also their nature, so when an Authority perishes, the god themselves extinguish; and similarly, for the demigod who hasn’t become divine, it’s the same for laws. Hence, since the Mythical War, with broken laws, Emperor Xuan Shen essentially already has one foot in the grave. Although Ramasitia’s Blessing is still under her care, she can only manage to do so much, and should she battle strong chaotic powers again, the only outcome waiting for her is mutual destruction."
Emhardt widened her eyes, staring dumbfoundedly at the Cardinal of Destiny before her, feeling as if the most resilient support within her heart just collapsed,
"It can’t be... Wait, as such a powerful existence in the world, having such a good relationship with Ramasitia, shouldn’t there be any way to save the Destructive God?"
"Completing a law is not a simple matter, it seems even Ramasitia is helpless in this regard, or perhaps, she has a method but cannot achieve it, the outcome is the same either way."
"This is disastrous, Fisher, what do we do now? Your mother-in-law can’t be relied upon, now it’s up to us... How do we fight? Maybe you should just return and surrender to Elizabeth, trading your body for a way out."
Fisher disdainfully glanced at the spineless Emhardt beside him; she was so fierce in front of Elizabeth, if Fisher returned, it’s likely Elizabeth would sacrifice her first.
However, he never intended to rely on Xuan Shen. The world’s only demigod has been so silent throughout history, and even with something as major as the doomsday prophecy occurring she remains unmoving, something is clearly off.
Previously, he thought Xuan Shen was busy with the gods dealing with the Spirit Realm’s matters, but clearly, that is not the case.
It indeed felt like a bleak future ahead...
Nevertheless, Fisher did not feel discouraged. He stood up, patted the timid Emhardt to boost his morale, quickly calmed down, looked at Alicia in front of him who had returned to normal and analyzed,
"Elizabeth mentioned earlier that ’the Death Trinity is soon to be achieved,’ I have read the contents of the Death Completion Manual, where the third ring is referred to as [Death of God]. Previously, a friend of mine... my woman talked to me about this, these few weaker chaos entities are aiming at the injured Dalasgon; they plan on assassinating the divine who governs the Gap so chaos can fully invade the world."
