Chapter 258 Eira on the brink of death... Justin arrival

Inside the quiet forest, everyone had their hearts in their throats as they watched Marco take the grim scythe slowly.

He turned and looked at his previous fellow companion with various conflicted expressions on his face.

"Don't tell me you're considering it?" Madam Amelia asked, her voice laced with shock.

Marco didn't respond and looked at the trembling ordinary people and then at his previous goddess, Eira, with blood leaking from the corner of her lips.

"You have one minute to decide. Either them or you?" A deep voice said from behind.

When he heard that voice, his heart skipped a beat, and he took a deep breath.

"I'm sorry," he said with a slight hint of regret before his eyes showed a firm determination.

Ah!

A woman cried and looked at the dark scythe plunging deep into her chest in dismay.

"Y-You…" She managed to say before falling to her knees, blood gushing out of her mouth.

Thud!

Her head hit the ground, life drifting out of her body. Dead.

As for his previous companions, they were stupefied by Marco's sudden attack.

Previously, no one had the time to care about Marco's betrayal for bringing the devil toward them.

But now, seeing him kill his fellow humans in cold blood with just a few words from the devil, they realized how selfish and evil Marco was.

"I'm going…"

"Stop!" Eira commanded, interrupting Madam Amelia's furious attack.

Holding her chest, Eira didn't change her expression. She looked at Marco before turning to the man with bat wings.

"You've proven your point. If you're going to kill us, get on with it."

Hearing this, the man with bat wings had a slight smirk on his face before looking at the Evil Being.

"You heard her. Kill them all and leave only her."

At once, the Evil Beings regained their vigor and looked at the humans with savage expressions, picking up their scythes.

"You may be more powerful than us, but we won't die without a fight," Madam Amelia insisted.

Just as Madam Amelia and the women guards around prepared to rush toward the Evil Beings, a deadly sharp dark spear plunged deep into her and sent her flying with a miserable scream echoing from her mouth.

She hung from an ancient tree, dangling back and forth with blood gushing out of her mouth.

Madam Amelia panicked with fear written all over her face. She knew her death was near as the black spear drained her life force.

"G-Goddess… In… this… life… meeting you… is… one of the happiest things that… happened to me…" She managed to say before lowering her head. Dead.

Watching the lifeless Madam Amelia hanging on the tree, the charging women stopped in their tracks with fear evident in their trembling hands.

Eira's heart trembled with regret creeping up her face. 'If I was stronger… This wouldn't have happened to us…'

Previously, she had focused all her energy on saving and providing for the people under her.

With a pure heart, she thought humans would stick together in this trial time.

Moreover, as the carrier of the verdant star, she thought it was her calling to provide and guide the people to the right path.

Unfortunately, she realized how wrong she was as she watched how the Evil Beings savagely butchered her people.

Moreover, she saw Marco among them, his expression twisted with a hint of satisfaction plastered on his face.

'How could I be so blind to save him…'

As she continued to watch Marco, something broke deep inside her.

'If this is the last thing I do alive… I won't mind.' With that, she began to chant secretly without her mouth moving.

And behold, the Earth trembled slightly, as if hearing her call, and a group of vines crept toward Marco under the soil, waiting to devour him.

"With whispered words, my will I bind, To protect what's dear, my heart aligned, If this is the last I do alive, I won't mind, Let Earth's defenders, Marco now put to grievous death."

As she completed the last word, tens of deadly purple vines sprouted from the ground and attacked Marco from all sides.

Ah!

Marco cried, his voice laced with fear.

"Someone save me." He screamed.

However, before everyone could process what was happening, the vines retreated quickly, dragging Marco into the ground.

"No… No… I don't want to die… Please…" He cried, his voice fading into the ground.

Seeing this, the remaining humans and Eira breathed a sigh of relief and contented smiles appeared on their faces.

At least the traitor was killed.

"Even though I was told not to kill. How dare you touch my underling," the man with bat wings shouted and sent tens of dark shadows toward Eira.

Bang!

Eira was sent flying. She crashed into a massive tree, breaking its branches as if they were nothing before falling to the ground.

Falling to the ground, she coughed up a mouthful of blood, and her face whitened.

Her blue gown was torn, with deep cuts appearing on her waist and legs. Her chest rose and fell with some difficulty, but that didn't stop the beautiful smile from creeping onto her face.

It was as if she wasn't in pain.

"You can smile now. When my Lord gets what he wanted from you, I will deal with you," the man sneered.

"Kill them quickly, we need to leave," he commanded with annoyance.

"Yes…" The Evil Beings chorused with excitement and continued their killing spree.

As Eira and everyone accepted their fate, a blinding golden light flashed into the forest, and everyone closed their eyes for a moment.

"Are you okay?" A gentle soothing voice echoed inside Eira.

Hmm?!

Eira opened her eyes slowly and turned to the direction of the voice.

And behold, she saw a young man looking at her with care and concern.

"W-Who are you?" She opened her mouth slowly to ask.

"Can't you feel it?" He said.

Eira blinked her eyes twice before she got the meaning of his words.

The dormant verdant star in her heart was not pulsating, as if ready to come out.

Just as everyone was wondering who the new otherworldly young man was, they heard a voice.

"I didn't expect to see you here, Justin?"
