Blood flowed freely, flesh flew everywhere.

Amidst the blood and fire of the broken walls.

Two lines of clear tears slowly streamed down the maiden's beautiful face.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry... It's all my fault. I shouldn't have accepted this mission... Teresha, Lanti..."

The world's end.

The Elsos Ruins in the core area of the Great Tree Sea.

Goddess Artemis looked at her severely injured familia members, filled with regret.

Accepting the guild's mission to investigate the monster anomaly, traveling thousands of miles to the ruins at the world's end, was it just to send her children to their deaths?

Regret, self-blame...

Artemis's eyes were full of bitterness.

"No, it's not Lady Artemis's fault. It's, it's because we're too weak... Cough!"

Spitting out a mouthful of blood, kneeling on one knee, clutching her torn chest, Teresha, the captain of the Artemis Familia, said softly.

LV.3, she already far surpassed ninety percent of the adventurers in Orario.

But, facing this mission, she still suffered a crushing defeat.

"Lady Artemis, run! We will do our best to hold it back!" Trembling, the half-elf girl named Lanti struggled to her feet, barely managing to keep herself from falling.

But.

Just standing up exhausted all of Lanti's strength. Severely injured, could she really stop the monster before them?

Lanti was a child Artemis found in the mountains.

Raised on bear milk, Lanti could be said to have been raised single-handedly by Artemis.

She regarded Artemis as a mother.

And to protect her mother, death might not be something to fear...

"Yes, Lady Artemis, leave it to us, escape as soon as possible! Return to Orario, report the information to the guild, and avenge us!"

"Run, I still have the strength to fight!"

"For the Goddess! Fight!"

"..."

One by one, the members struggled to their feet, like a wall, silently standing in front of Artemis.

And their opponent.

Was the [Scorpion] Antares, sealed by the Great Spirits in ancient times.

Completely black, covered in scarlet glowing stripes, a huge monster shaped like a scorpion.

"My lovely children, how could I abandon you and run away alone! There's still a chance, there's still a chance, as long as I release my divine power..." Artemis murmured.

"That won't do! Lady Artemis! If you release your divine power, you will be sent back to Heaven!"

Divine power is restricted by the gods.

It is the rule of the Lower World.

The gods have their own way of detecting divine power.

Once Artemis violated the rules and used divine power, the only result waiting for her would be repatriation to Heaven.

"It doesn't matter, children, no matter what happens to me, as long as you can live, that's enough..."

Wiping away the tears on her face, with a hint of farewell smile.

A surge of majestic divine power emanated from Artemis's body!

In just an instant.

The bright blue pillar of light turned into a surge, rushing straight towards the monster named Antares.

"I hope, after I return to Heaven, these children can live as happily as before," Artemis silently wished in her heart as the divine power was released.

However.

Bang.

Just as Artemis was silently praying.

The divine power rushing towards Antares actually dissipated the moment it came into contact with it.

"What!?" A trace of incomprehension and bewilderment flashed in Artemis's eyes, but more than that, it was despair.

Even divine power could not harm this monster.

Then.

What awaited her Artemis Familia was despair.

"How is this possible!"

"Why is this happening!"

"Lady Artemis's divine power actually dissipated! No! Rather than dissipating, it's more like it was absorbed!"

"What, what kind of monster is this!"

Despair once again enveloped the entire Artemis Familia.

"Roar!!!"

At the same time.

Seemingly provoked by the attack of divine power, Antares suddenly became violent.

While absorbing the dissipated divine power, the fist-sized spikes at the end of its tail turned into sharp blades, piercing towards Artemis's abdomen.

Under this strike that countered divine power.

Even a god would fall! Turning into Antares's nourishment!

"Careful!"

"It's too late!"

"Lady Artemis!!"

Despair could not be suppressed from the members' eyes, watching the flying spikes, they had no way to stop them.

Or rather.

At this moment.

All of them were severely injured and had no strength to change anything.

"Is this the fate of our familia... What a pity..." Her eyes turned lifeless, and there was no longer a trace of luck in Artemis's heart.

The remaining divine power in her body surged with her thoughts.

Artemis intended to use this last bit of divine power to summon the divine artifact [Orion's Arrow] and send a request for help to Orario.

She hoped that a hero would appear to help her familia avenge them.

However.

Before she could finish using her divine power.

A familiar aura suddenly rushed from a distance, causing her to pause her actions.

"That's!!! How is this possible!!?"

"I clearly haven't summoned [Orion] yet!"

Boom!

A huge force, accompanied by irresistible power, pierced through the dome of the Elsos Ruins.

A bright silver spear, flashing with bright divine patterns, rushed towards the spikes attacking Artemis.

Clang!

Clearly, it was just the tail of a monster.

At this moment, in the clash with the spear, it could actually emit an ear-piercing sound like the collision of metal.

Thanks to this suddenly appearing spear.

Artemis's crisis was instantly resolved!

"Really, is it my [Orion]..."

Looking at the spear floating in front of her, covered in blue ring-shaped streamers, feeling the divine power that had not flowed out of her body, Artemis was confused.

"Hello, excuse me, is this... Hmm!!? Are you Artemis?"

With a flash of white light, Lu Yuan once again emerged from the spear, just wanting to ask what was going on.

Why he was uncontrollably flying around.

As a result.

When he saw the face of the person in front of him, he seemed to understand in an instant.

[Name: Lu Yuan]

[Level: LV.3 (16%)]

[Skills: Random Transformation (Current Transformation, Divine Artifact, Orion's Arrow (Can Generate Thought Bodies to Act Freely), 3 days)]

[Additional Abilities: One, Magikarp.

Two, Dora Rokuhana.]

This time, he transformed into [Orion's Arrow], so, feeling that his master Artemis was in danger, coming to support her was a very reasonable thing...

Reasonable my ass!

Lu Yuan never knew that there was such a situation!

Transforming into someone else's property could result in being summoned!

"Is it because they are in the same world? When I transformed into the Zi-O driver, I wasn't summoned to the world of Kamen Rider."

"But, the situation of transforming into Bell and synchronizing with Bell's attributes, can it explain that if I transform into things in this world, I will be affected..."

"World rules?"

"A bit unlucky, inexplicably gained a goddess as a master."

"But... compared to the shit and piss I talked about with Alfia last night, this transformation is completely acceptable."

Silently comforting himself in his heart, looking at Artemis, who was staring blankly at him, Lu Yuan waved his hand in front of her and asked, "Um..."

"So, Orion, you have been silently protecting me all along? I clearly didn't summon you..." Hugging Lu Yuan tightly, feeling the warmth of Lu Yuan's body, Artemis looked excited.

At the same time.

Because of the leakage of Artemis's divine power, the gods of Orario couldn't help but raise their heads, looking into the distance.
