The sound of this sentence sounds somewhat childish, like a little girl speaking.

Aloof, who was in despair and grief, turned her head suddenly after hearing the sound, and saw a stranger girl - she was petite in stature, estimated to be no more than 1.5 meters tall, dressed in gothic-style clothing, with a black rose hair accessory on her head. She looked very cute.

However, the serious expression on the girl's face at the moment did not match her cute and childish appearance.

"...Who?"

The girl walked slowly past Aloof and stood in front of her, her gaze fixed on a golden behemoth in the sky.

"I am the Reaper. I'm here now to fulfill the wish of a girl named Mio."

"Mio?"

At first, Aloof was excited because she seemed to see a life-saving straw, but then she was stunned, and her eyes dimmed. In a low, almost inaudible voice, she said:

"Mio, she is already...dead."

"That's right. Because I arrived a little late, she died. I'm sorry about that."

"..."

Aloof looked at the back of the Reaper in astonishment, unable to understand why she could remain so calm. Although Aloof didn't know the Reaper personally, she had heard about the Reaper from Green. Aloof also knew what Mio's wish was - at first, she thought it was a very ordinary wish, but now it seemed so out of reach.

Now, in a situation where everyone else is dead and only she remains, the Reaper suddenly appears and says something like "to fulfill Mio's wish." Aloof couldn't understand it and couldn't comprehend it.

"It's over. Not just Mio, everyone is dead. Everything...is finished..."

Aloof couldn't change her pessimistic and negative attitude, as the current situation didn't seem optimistic no matter how she looked at it. Even if the Reaper appeared in front of her now, Aloof didn't believe she could defeat the monstrous Source User.

After all, even Green...

Just thinking about Green, even just thinking about those two words, would cause Aloof's heart to feel like it was being bitten by thousands of ants, pierced by millions of swords, incredibly painful.

Originally, Aloof had already prepared herself for death. Now it seems that the only reason she was able to survive until the end was because Green suppressed the Source User at the last moment. But the result only made Aloof even more sorrowful, just slightly prolonging her time of death. The final outcome would not change at all.

Even if the Reaper appears, it won't make a difference. The gods have no resistance in front of the Source User.

"...Actually, there is hope for resurrection, you know."

Suddenly, a shocking statement came from the Reaper girl in the air.

Aloof, who didn't expect to hear such words, showed a stunned expression, but then her attitude underwent a complete 180-degree change. When the Reaper saw the glimmer of hope in Aloof's eyes, even though there wasn't much change on the surface, she couldn't help but show a faint smile.

"How should we proceed?"

"It's up to you."

"Uh...me?"

Aloof thought to herself, she not only lacked the ability, but also any special powers. What could she do if she was asked to do something? If she hadn't heard the hope of resurrection from the other party, she wouldn't even have this belief.

"I am the Reaper. Although I am also a god, I do not belong to the same system as other gods. The incarnation of the messenger of the world's origin cannot affect me. However, with my power, I can only resurrect the object who made the wish - Mio. The others, including Green, cannot be resurrected by me."

The Grim Reaper turned around and gazed at Aloof with a solemn expression, then said, "Believe in yourself. You have the potential."

"..."

Aloof fell silent.

The Death God girl's gaze towards Aloof was so serious that it couldn't help but evoke a sense of respect, and there was also a deep sense of trust in her eyes.

Being looked at with such a gaze, Aloof's mentality quietly underwent a change.

From the beginning until now, Aloof had not been able to make any contribution. After everyone was killed, Aloof fell into a vortex of sadness, with only thoughts of waiting for death in her mind. As an "onlooker" all along, she couldn't even believe that someone would look at her with such a trusting gaze, an extreme gaze of trust.

Suddenly, Aloof had a sense of déjà vu.

It seemed like she had seen this kind of gaze not long ago, and the more she looked, the more familiar it felt. Then Aloof realized that the Death God girl's face gradually overlapped with the gaze of that man, Green.

Aloof suddenly realized that she had seen this kind of gaze before.

Not just once, but many times, especially that time.

Green, that incredibly powerful man, even in the very end, his gaze towards her was filled with love and absolute trust hidden deep in his eyes.

Even though he had lost his physical body, with only a trace of his will remaining, even barely suppressing the state of his true self while maintaining the power of his source, he couldn't even express a smile properly, but his gaze would never deceive anyone.

- He had always trusted her.

It was trust without any reason, and it could even be said to be an unreasonable trust.

After realizing this, endless remorse surged in Aloof's heart, but it was soon replaced by steadfast conviction and hope. Aloof deeply understood that she couldn't continue to be despondent.

The subtle changes in Aloof's demeanor, although difficult to perceive, were clearly captured by the Death God.

"I will bring Mio back to life. The rest is up to you."

Hell, in complete opposition to Heaven, is ruled by the Death God. However, not only is Hell in opposition to Heaven, it is also completely different from the entire divine realm, and it can even be considered as a separate realm. As far as the consensus in the divine realm goes, that's how it is.

The Death God, as the ruler of Hell, is completely different from the deities like the God of Light.

Including the God of Light, there are over a dozen deities, and the highest authority figures are the Supreme Gods. In fact, there are even higher existences above the Supreme Gods, and that is the power of the world's source, the power that nurtured the Supreme Gods and other deities. However, the vastness of the world is not something that the mere power of the world's source can recklessly dominate.

The power of the world's source can indeed be considered the strongest power in the universe, but in the end, it is only energy. In fact, the power of the source itself was created by even higher beings.

Although the Death God does not possess the power to directly oppose the power of the world's source, as a messenger and representative, as long as she uses "fulfilling Mio's wish" as the reason, she can invoke the authority of the entities above the source.

Source agents are nothing more than messengers, even if the source itself wants to deal with the Death God, it wouldn't gain any benefits. From the perspective of messengers, the Death God is much more respected than this monstrous beast.

"To dare kill my wisher, you should be prepared to pay the corresponding price."

It was just to fulfill the original wish.

The death girl closed her eyes and focused her attention. Soon, a red light emitted from her body, but it was quickly dispersed by the following white light. The white and red lights intertwined and gradually separated from the death girl's body, swirling and changing in the air like smoke, gradually forming a humanoid shape.

The white and red colors merged and quickly turned into black.

At that moment, the death girl suddenly opened her eyes and emitted a beam of light from the depths of her pupils. At this moment, she underwent a magical transformation, her expression became numb and stiff, making her look like a wooden figure.

This was the death girl communicating with the entity to obtain the highest power.

Soon, the death girl regained her vitality.

"In the name of the highest power - "

Aloof heard the cold and emotionless voice. This voice was full of humanity and provided a strong sense of security. However, to the monster source user, it felt as if they had fallen into the absolute zero of an ice cave.

A roar came from the sky, but the monster source user did not dare to approach the death girl.

It was an instinctive fear that made it realize it could not resist the girl in the black outfit - if it faced her, it would lose the concept of "victory".

" - Resurrect, Mio!"

With a shout, the death girl raised her hands high, and the black energy in front of her, which had a preliminary humanoid shape, began to change.

The outline became more and more solid, and the color gradually transformed.

Soon, the energy had a preliminary human skin color. At first, the color was ordinary, but it gradually turned pale, visually becoming smoother, giving it the texture that skin should have. Then, the details of the body began to emerge like a sculpture.

After a short time, in just a few blinks, it had become a human.

The first thing that caught the eye was the silver long hair. The silver hair suddenly appeared like a waterfall, cascading down and covering the girl's glowing body. Then, her body revealed its true appearance, but before it could be fully seen, it was covered with clothing, concealing the exquisite body.

At this point, the body, identical to Mio, was complete.

Aloof couldn't help but show a look of astonishment. Even though he didn't know if Mio could speak or move like before, Aloof had witnessed Mio's body being obliterated. It was as if a wiped-out painting, without leaving a trace.

However, now, under the power of the death gods, Mio's body was revived. This was the truth.

Apart from being amazed and shocked, Aloof was more excited. She also saw the light of hope, a strong light of hope that dispelled the darkness of "despair" in her heart.

"Next, infuse the soul - "

The death girl put her palm near her mouth and gently blew. Instantly, an invisible and intangible object flew towards Mio and instantly entered her body.

With that, Mio's resurrection was complete.

Aloof anticipated with some unease, but the death girl was extremely confident.

Soon, Mio's eyebrows twitched a few times, and then she slowly opened her eyes with a hint of confusion.
