Chapter 376 - 376: Before the God Awakens
Logan let the others continue the fight.
He saved his strength for the stronger beasts—those had yet to come. The ones in their path now were easily stomped by Scorch.
A barrage of radiant feathers rained from above—Uriel's doing—followed by searing arrows conjured by Rubina. Each shot lit the air with fire, bursting on impact and sending embers through small fry too weak for them to even stop to fight.
Where they passed, nothing remained but scorched ground and smoke.
And yet, despite the destruction, the trees around them remained largely untouched by flame, as if the smog in the air swallowed anything that produced light before it could spread.
Logan didn't think much about the journey so far that is—until something changed.
All noise had seized to exist, leaving only silence.
They could see nothing through the dark mist. Now, they couldn't hear anything either.
The trail ahead began to shift—widening unnaturally, as though opening to welcome them in.
But it wasn't welcoming.
There was something wrong with it, Logan felt something strange from the way the darkness mana reacted as if warning him.
Worse, it was sloping downward. They were supposed to be climbing toward the mountain of the temple, yet they were being led lower and deeper somewhere.
"Stop, Scorch… this isn't normal."
Logan tapped the great dinosaur's side. The beast rumbled but obeyed, coming to a slow halt. It was the only one that gave him the confidence to act without hesitation.
He wasn't going to take any chances.
Logan began casting Holy Nova, condensing pure light-elemental mana at his fingertips.
Each second, a meter around them lit up.
A soft glow pushed against the darkness… and revealed what waited ahead.
"Damn it! Rubina, Uriel—get behind me!" Logan shouted.
In front of them stood a temple.
But it wasn't like the ancient ruins scattered through the labyrinth. No, this one looked recent—almost freshly built, the stone too clean. Something was wrong.
And the spirit near its entrance? Definitely not the one Logan had been
This wasn't just any spell, it was going to be his strongest Holy Nova yet.
"Let's see if this fake god can take this," Logan muttered, eyes burning with divine energy as the spell reached critical mass.
Scorch let out a guttural snarl beside him, molten breath lighting up the altar once more—buying time, while holding back the beast who roared as if telling them he was almost free.
And Logan stood there, hands trembling from the pressure of the dual cast.
