Imprisoned for a Trillion Years, I Was Worshipped by All Gods!

"Has there been any change in the back mountains?"

The old man asked carefully.

"Sir, according to what the headmasters said, there has been no change in the back mountains."

Even though the answer was like this, the old man still decided to return and check for himself.

Otherwise, there would always be an uneasy feeling in his heart.

"Let's head to the academy as quickly as possible, and return before tomorrow."

"Yes!"

...

Elsewhere, Zero was telling Lord Ponton the specifics of the situation.

It was about those people who went to provoke Nora and the result…

Naturally, they were all wiped out.

Now, according to some people's estimates, they were probably still unconscious and hadn't woken up.

"What?!!!"

Lord Ponton exclaimed in disbelief.

It was hard for him to accept what Zero was saying.

The younger generation of his own family, they were completely no match for Nora?

Even worse…

A large group of them were easily defeated by her?

How could such a thing happen?

No matter how strong she was, it shouldn't have been possible for her to eliminate so many of the House Ponton people in one go!

"What is she doing now?"

"Well, she's probably eating the Fish King from the Tier-Sage residence…"

"What?!!!"

...n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

At that moment, at the Tier-Sage residence,

A group of young members of House Ponton were lying on the ground, unconscious.

By the pond, a fish was roasting on a fire.

The Fish King, now only giving off a tempting aroma.

Nina couldn't wait to taste it.

After taking a bite, she frowned.

"It doesn't seem that tasty… If only Eve were here, she could make this Fish King taste so much better."

"You really are hard to please," Nora said as she glanced at Nina, who was complaining about the taste but still eating greedily.

Nora couldn't help but smile.

In her opinion, such a high-quality dish didn't need any complicated cooking method to be good.

"Wait until you try Eve's cooking, Nora, and then you'll understand the difference."

After speaking, Nina looked around and then asked:

"Nora, it seems like those guys aren't coming back, are they? Are they scared of us now?"

Earlier, when Nina was about to cook the fish, some people came to stop her, but all of them were knocked out and now lay unconscious like the others.

Now, it had been a long time and there was no sign of them returning.

"Don't be careless. There's a strong presence heading our way," Nora said, sensing the presence approaching them.

It wasn't as strong as the ones lying on the ground, but still formidable.

"Oh, I see. Be careful, Nora, if anything happens, just call me, I'll step in!"

Nina said, vanishing in a flash.

Leaving Nora to face the approaching threat alone.

Just as Nina disappeared, a figure landed nearby.

It was Lord Ponton.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Lord Ponton immediately exploded with rage!

All that was left near the fire was the skeleton of the Fish King…

This Fish King had been cared for by House Ponton for many years.

Every member of House Ponton regarded it with great care, making sure no harm came to it.

But he never expected that today…

Nora would just eat it like that?

How could he swallow this insult?

And then there were these young members of House Ponton, lying unconscious all around him…

Lord Ponton was furious.

He had sent them to besiege her, not to humiliate themselves here!

At this moment, he felt like his entire body was about to explode with rage.

"Nora…"

Lord Ponton growled, his teeth clenched in fury.

Nora looked at him calmly.

"Lord Ponton, I am an elected representative of the academy. Your family members attacked me without cause, and even attempted to ambush me while I was cooking the fish. What exactly are you trying to do?"

Lord Ponton never expected Nora to turn the tables and accuse him like this, playing the victim.

"Child, you are too arrogant! Do you know how many years we've taken care of this Fish King in House Ponton?"

"I don't know, but it tastes alright." Experience exclusive tales on empire

Nora responded calmly.

"Alright?!!! You are asking for death!"

Lord Ponton shouted.

He no longer cared about the academy or the election.

He only wanted to punish this little girl and teach her what the real world was like.

In the next instant, a massive surge of mana erupted from Lord Ponton.

His right hand transformed into a claw, quickly reaching out toward Nora.

Nora sensed that a massive mana hand, made entirely of mana, was rapidly closing in on her.

Nora wasn't going to just sit there and wait to die.

Around her, faint red mana threads began to appear.

These mana threads began to counter the massive mana hand that was approaching.

Nora stood still, her eyes looking up at Lord Ponton, floating in the air.

"Is this all the strength House Ponton's head has?"

Her words were light, but they immediately sent Lord Ponton into a fit of rage.

"I will kill you!"

Lord Ponton roared, his voice echoing throughout the entire family.

Others in the family, hearing this roar, began to wonder what was going on.

Wasn't that the head's voice?

What happened?

Who could have made the head this angry?

"What, are you so arrogant? Do you think you can kill me?"

Nora's voice rang out coldly.

As soon as her words fell, the mana threads quickly spread out around her!

In that instant, both Nora and Lord Ponton vanished from sight.

Lord Ponton found himself surrounded by an entirely red world.

"Small tricks! No matter what illusion you're using, it's nothing against true power!"

Lord Ponton exclaimed, about to attack Nora.

At this point, even Nina, who had been hiding, couldn't help but laugh.

This so-called Lord Ponton really didn't understand at all!

He actually thought the space Nora had created was an illusion…

She had completely underestimated Nora!

Nina, who was proficient in spatial magic, knew that this wasn't an illusion at all!

It was something far more powerful.

Just as Lord Ponton's magic was about to land on Nora, she finally moved!

In the next instant, Nora dodged Lord Ponton's attack.

Red threads of mana began to envelop Lord Ponton's body.

Moments later,

The two figures reappeared in the courtyard of the Tier-Sage residence.

Nora still stood there, seemingly unaffected by the battle.

To her, it was just a minor affair.

And on the ground, there was a new addition—Lord Ponton!

Now lying there, bloodied and battered, he stared in disbelief at Nora.

"You… you're dead! Even if he's here, he won't be able to save you!"

Lord Ponton said, barely able to speak.

He reached into his robes and pulled out a scroll.

The scroll burst into flames as it was activated.

At the same moment, four ancient and powerful auras appeared deep within House Ponton's underground vault!

These auras were far stronger than Lord Ponton himself.

In the next instant, four elderly figures appeared in front of Lord Ponton.

"You must be the current Lord Ponton?"

"Your power is weak…"

"Why did you summon us? We can only exist for a short time before we must return to our slumber."

"…"

"Elders, this woman attacked our family, even eating the Fish King from the Tier-Sage residence! Please, I beg you to avenge our family!"

At this point, Lord Ponton didn't care about anything else.

He just wanted Nora dead.
