"You're finally here. I've waited for you for a long time, Ice Queen. Bring the Divine King Belial back to
life as soon as possible. Only until then will he be truly yours..." Wraith King Sebastian said in a somber
and deep voice.
"I can't thank you enough for this, Sebastian. I wouldn't have had the chance to control him if it weren't
for you," Ice Queen said as she expressed her profound appreciation. After her voice trailed off, she
turned around and locked her eyes at Wraith King Sebastian.
"What do you mean by that, Ice Queen?" As soon as Rocky heard their conversation, he immediately
sensed that the two had clearly been keeping a secret.
"Remember your promise?" the Ice Queen questioned in response.
At that moment, Rocky's eyes narrowed. Of course, he remembered that. If he didn't, then surely,
Alyssa's life would be ended by the Ice Queen.
"It's time to fulfill your promise. I will use your flesh to resurrect Belial into this world." The Ice Queen
went straight to the point.
Rocky was a little bit surprised to hear the Ice Queen's thoughts. In fact, never had he expected that
she only saved Alyssa so that she could use his body to bring the Divine King Belial back to life.
"Then I assume that Apollyon didn't tell you. Belial is not really dead. In fact, a wisp of his spiritual soul
remains but is currently sealed somewhere secret. I think that he also wants to be reborn one day..."
the Ice Queen remarked and revealed another shocking fact.
Having heard this for the first time, Rocky was taken aback. In fact, not once had the Dragon-shaped
Soul Beast ever mentioned this to him.
"Why didn't you take my body before? Why do you have to wait until now?" Rocky asked as he wanted
to know the truth.
"You are Belial's reincarnation. You have to be willing to sacrifice your body. Otherwise, Belial's spiritual
soul would not merge with your body," answered the queen monotonously.
"With that being said, it would be useless for me to force you to do this." Upon hearing the very specific
condition, Rocky could not help but sneer.
"So, will you be unwilling to do this? Take a look at her. Don't you want to keep her alive? Without the
Heavenly Ice Soul, she would be nothing but a lifeless and cold corpse..." At that moment, the queen
seemed to have hit Rocky's weak spot as she used Alyssa to change his mind.
"Basil, don't listen to her. Leave me alone." Alyssa had already known why she was resurrected, but
she didn't know that Rocky was the one who helped her. That was why upon learning the entire truth,
she wouldn't let Rocky sacrifice himself for her.
Meanwhile, Rocky glanced at Alyssa and then looked at the queen. His brows were knitted closely out
of confusion as he tried to make sense of what he was hearing. Undoubtedly, he wanted to say no,
because it was obvious that the queen and Wraith King Sebastian were brewing something up.
Moreover, he thought that maybe the revival of the Divine King Belial was just an excuse. On the other
hand, if he didn't agree to what the Ice Queen was asking of him, then Alyssa would definitely die.
"I need you to decide now. I don't have much patience," the queen demanded with a cold and cunning
look in her eyes.
"I will never let you succeed, no matter what you are planning," Alyssa snapped as she suddenly
placed her hand on her chest. Soon after, she released the Heavenly Ice Soul from her body gradually.
Immediately, her face began to twist in excruciating pain. Since the Heavenly Ice Soul was integrated
with her, she felt as if her skin was being peeled from her bones, forcefully separating the Heavenly Ice
Soul from her body.
But, Alyssa didn't think twice about what she was doing. With firm resolution, she would rather sacrifice
herself than let Rocky make any more sacrifices for her.
"Marcia, please stop her!" Seeing this horrifying scene, Rocky called out to Marcia right away for help.
"Stay where you are. Don't come near me," Alyssa yelled at Marcia.
At that moment, Marcia was in a great dilemma. She knew that once she made a choice, either Rocky
or Alyssa would die.
"Ice Queen... I promise you," Rocky unwillingly said to the queen with his cold eyes.
"Smart choice." In the blink of an eye, Ice Queen appeared beside Alyssa with a gentle smile curled on
her lips. Then, she said in a low voice, "My child, come here. You must rest!" Soon after, she waved her
sleeve, and Alyssa's entire body froze and fell to the ground like a corpse.
Afterwards, the Ice Queen returned to Rocky and looked at the Divine Spiritual Source that he was
holding and said, "In a while, I will release Belial's spiritual soul. When the time comes, you will need to
release the power of the Divine Spiritual Source and lead the spiritual soul into your body. After the
spiritual soul completely takes over your flesh body, your soul will disappear completely. I assure you,
you won't feel any pain during the process."
Rocky took a cold look at the queen and then at the ferocious Wraith King Sebastian. Then he said,
"But that's not all. I still have another condition!"
"Sure, name it. I will satisfy you for as long as I can," the Ice Queen said generously.
"I want you to kill him." Rocky said coldly as he glared at Wraith King Sebastian.
"Is that all? Sure, I will. But not now. However, I can promise you that I won't let him hurt anyone
again," the Ice Queen said firmly.
"What are you trying to say, Ice Queen?" Wraith King Sebastian's face darkened immediately.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you. I have made a deal with Holy Lord. He told me that he will no longer interfere
with my relationship with Belial as long as I give you to him," Ice Queen said and smiled slyly.
"How dare you betray me, you bitch!" Wraith King Sebastian cursed violently.
After agreeing to Rocky's condition, the Ice Queen then said with a sweet smile, "Are you satisfied
now? Let's begin. We don't have much time!"
But right at that moment, Marcia finally took hasty action. After all, she would never forgive herself if
she let the queen do anything to Rocky. That was why before Rocky could even move, she stood in
front of him as if trying to block and protect him at the same time.
When the queen saw Marcia appear, her cold eyes narrowed. She looked at Marcia and asked, "Oh,
please. I don't mind giving you a ride to hell if you really want to die."
"I will never let you hurt Basil. Over my dead body..." Marcia said in a determined voice.
"No, Marcia. Go away!" Rocky snapped, and his face darkened in anger. He knew that once the queen
attacked, she would never show mercy.
"No, I won't leave." Marcia stood her ground. She would rather die than let the queen get close to
Rocky.
"Wow, this is so touching to see. I think I can see myself in you. Unfortunately, darling, it is not up to
you to decide. So, go away before I tear you to shreds!" the Ice Queen snarled. Meanwhile, the
queen's pretty face suddenly became violent like that of a resentful woman. Soon after, she waved her
sleeve, and a strong ice force shot out, directly rushing towards Marcia.
As her defense, Marcia waved the forceful Flood Dragon Halberd to resist with all her might. Despite
this attempt, she was unable to block the attack due to its immense strength. Moreover, she had just
used all her strength to activate the Divine Spiritual Source. That was why not long after, she was
directly hit by the ice force, causing her to fly more than ten meters away and drop to the ground.
"Marcia! No!" Rocky couldn't help but call out in fear of losing her. Then he glared at the queen.
"Do you feel sorry for her? Believe me, I didn't mean to do it. It's just that I find this woman a little too
annoying," the Ice Queen said innocently.
However, just as they were talking, Marcia stood up from the ground with great difficulty. The blow from
the attack really did a number on her, giving her several serious injuries and bruising up her internal
organs. In fact, an ordinary spiritual being would have never withstood the power that she had just
absorbed from the Ice Queen.
