NOVPUB"The depraved man with mental disorders who plays Emperor and always feels insecure about his masculinity, loved by nobody, and will die alone in loneliness. You know nothing but breed. It’s time for you to give up your throne! Bring forth your lecher God here, and our Goddess shall destroy you altogether!" Scarlet taunted the Sea Emperor fearlessly.
The other mermaids and former slaves who suffered greatly because of those crooked nobles and evildoers also cursed their enemies and taunted them.
The war started with verbal abuse, a war of words.
They might have been hunted down by the imperial army if they had said this a few days ago. However, they were already under the protection of Goddess Elysia. So, no one was afraid of the Empire anymore.
"..." Elysia looked at her people with an awkward expression. She asked Scarlet to taunt the enemy into approaching her advanced perception zone. Yet, it somehow turned into an inappropriate war of words.
"I dare you to say that again!?" The Ugrasta Sea Emperor snapped with fury. He couldn’t bear such an insult thrown in his face repeatedly.
"Huh? Which one? Of course, we dare. I will castrate you and throw you into your slave harems. We will cripple you and let you be slaughtered by your own wives." Scarlet raised her middle finger to the angry Emperor.
"You are too arrogant. I will let you know your place by r*pe you in public. Take them down!" The Ugrasta Sea Emperor issued the attack order. He raised his golden cane, and his army advanced forward.
"Well, at least it works." Nell gave Scarlet a thumbs up.
"I shall handle them instantly." Elysia flew out of the bubble. She created a frame with her fingers, marking all enemies as soon as they entered her advanced perception zone.
All enemies within a two-kilometer radius got marked without them realizing it. Elysia waited a few seconds and raised her hand.
The moment she clenched her fist, all the enemy troops within her zone were suppressed to the 0th rank instantly.
The affected enemy troops widened their eyes in shock because they could no longer exert their power. However, the nightmare began shortly after. Their cultivation and spiritual power gradually left their bodies.
"Argh! My power!?"
"My cultivation is gone!? How!?"
"My painstaking efforts of a hundred years disappeared in an instant!"
"I can no longer feel my spiritual roots! It’s gone!"
The middle and rear troops abruptly stopped when they saw the vanguard troops suddenly fall and screamed in anguish.
"What actually happened? Report your situation!" One of the Mid Generals asked but didn’t dare come any closer.
"Where is your Sea God? Bring him here." Elysia sat on the edge of the city wall near Scarlet, taunting the enemy with a ’come here’ finger gesture.
"So, you are their backer, the mastermind behind their self-confidence, Mermaid Goddess. Since you stepped in right at the beginning, I shall let the Sea God know this. You will fall into despair and become our Sea God’s property! Sea God of Ugra, please answer my call!"
The Ugrasta Sea Emperor squinted his eyes as he observed the ethereal divine beauty in the distance.
He smirked and took out a blue crystal magatama before embedding it into his chest. He was engulfed in blue flames, and his body expanded slightly, revealing a hazy, majestic spiritual figure behind him before it possessed his body.
"Someone is challenging my sovereignty and wants to overthrow my mortal roots? Mermaid Goddess, I applaud your courage to challenge me, especially in my domain." The Sea Emperor flared up like a blazing blue fire. His voice echoed tens of kilometers away, telling everyone that the ruler of the sea had come.
"So, he is the Sea God of Urga from the First Heaven... No wonder the Ugrasta Sea sounds familiar." Amy checked something in her artifact notebook with a frown. She had to make her move. "My lady, allow me to destroy him and his troops."
"No, wait. You want to know how his spiritual clone can descend to the mortal world, right? Leave the others alone. We are not the only ones who will punish them. The local predators and their enemies also want a piece of them." Elysia pulled Amy back.
She picked up a nearby small stone, imbued it with a disguised magical power, and then threw it at the Sea God of Urga.
The small stone shot over at a non-threatening speed, and the Sea God of Urga grinned disdainfully at the sight.
He let the small, non-threatening stone come closer. He caught it with his bare hand and crushed it to dust. "Cheap provocation, but you succeeded in attracting my interest. I shall conquer you and make you my new collection in my- blah!"
The Sea God of Urga had yet to finish his speech, but Elysia had already made her move.
Elysia used the crumbled stone as a catalyst and delivered a powerful spiritual slap to the Ugrasta Sea Emperor.
The Ugrasta Sea Emperor only staggered slightly, but the Sea God’s spiritual clone that possessed his body was blown several tens of meters out and landed on the sand. He got a real hard slap in the face.
"How dare you!" The Sea God of Urga soon recovered as if he had never been injured.
However, someone suddenly grabbed his head from behind. He looked back and suddenly fell into terror when he realized who he was facing. "Who are you? U-eh? The Heavenly Agent? What are you doing here?"
"Fall." Amy slammed the Sea God of Urga with force, causing a powerful seabed earthquake. She then dragged the deflated God spirit before Goddess Elysia.
"!?" The Ugrasta Sea Emperor gasped in shock and turned pale suddenly.
Their God was defeated instantly. The surrounding troops also lost their morale. Fear gradually engulfed them when they realized they had offended the higher being.
Several nobles and soldiers rushed to escape to save themselves. Unfortunately, Elysia had flown closer and expanded her zone. "Stay."
Her voice sounded gentle, but it was like the voice of the great devil of hell to evildoers. She suppressed the enemies, knocking them to the ground before taking their spiritual power from their bodies, leaving them to fall to 0th rank. 𝓷ℴ𝓋𝓅𝓊𝒷.𝒸𝓸𝓶
Even the giant monsters also lost their spiritual power and cultivation, leaving behind their physical power as the only means to protect themselves.
Divine punishment ended there. Elysia flew back as she would let the Mermaid Kingdom handle the rest. "They are the nobles and evildoers who make you suffer. Capture them, but don’t kill them."
"On your orders." Scarlet bowed respectfully. She received the command and joined her comrades to capture the enemies.
The number of enemies exceeded thirty thousand, and it would take some time to capture all the enemies. Regardless, she had to ensure no one could escape.

Amy interrogated the Sea God’s spiritual clone. She opened her grimoire, sending an emergency message to the Heaven Channel. She notified everyone on the Heaven Rank.
Elysia felt a little curious. She summoned her Sacred Heaven Grimoire and read the recent chat.
"Oh, Lord of Heaven! So, we can send a spiritual clone if we leave a heavenly catalyst in the mortal world. This needs to be fixed immediately."
"This Sea God of Urga truly has the nerve to challenge the Agent of the Dark Realm and the Supreme Goddess."
"My comrades and I are heading to the Urga Sea to catch that evildoer. He needs to be punished divinely."
Elysia scrolled up to find Amy’s chat, but she felt a little embarrassed when she read it. Amy told the Sea God of Urga harbored an indecent idea about the Supreme Goddess of Unknown Origin and also planned to r*pe them. Amy deliberately invited everyone’s anger towards this Sea God.
And, as one could expect, many Heaven Rank members went to the Urga Sea in the First Heaven to capture and punish the evildoer, the real Sea God of Urga.
Elysia closed her grimoire and returned to her people’s side. "It’s almost time for Lord Muckga and Lord Leviathan to return. After that, we can go to the final stage in the Mermaid Kingdom’s sovereignty plan."
"Master, you are so wonderful! But why do we need to call them with the prefix Lord? They are not our Lord, just a monster at 10th Rank." Vanessa swam closer like a happy cat.
"Hmm... I also wonder. That’s probably their custom, and they prefer to be called Lord. Like the spirit beasts on the Human Continent in Vrelenia. They take pride in their titles as Didi and Bhai." Elysia replied with a tender smile. She didn’t know the reason, but it didn’t really matter.
"O-oh~" Vanessa finally understood the situation.
A few moments later, some noises were approaching from a distance. Everyone thought it was enemy reinforcements, but upon closer look, it was two familiar super huge monsters. The giant worm, Lord Muckga, and the sea serpent, Lord Leviathan.
Elysia looked at her Goddess sisters and Elysium members. They went to the east side of the city to meet those massive monsters.
"!!!" Lord Leviathan and Lord Muckga abruptly stopped because three intimidating, supermassive dragons appeared before them.
Gio, Cherub, and Noir confronted the massive sea serpent and gigantic worm as if ready to teach their juniors a lesson. After all, these two 10th Rank monsters had yet to be disciplined by them, including the super-class monsters in the Artificial Hell Realm.
"Err... We are not enemies, respected seniors. He is Lord Leviathan, a good brother I met on my mission. We returned in exactly three days as ordered by the Almighty Goddess." Lord Muckga greeted the three venerable dragons in a friendly manner.
He felt extremely nervous because the three dragons before him were incredibly massive and possessed profound power far above his.
