Beside them, Wendell was pleased to see his wife getting along so well with Leo's daughter.
However, Albert's expression was slightly grim.
Before meeting Leo, he had never known defeat and believed himself to be invincible.
But in such a short period of time, he had encountered setbacks one after another, and he now deeply realized that his previous sense of superiority had been that of a frog in a well!
He silently vowed to break through to a higher rank as soon as possible!
...
In a separate space of law, two figures stood silently facing each other—Leo and Eileen.
At this moment, Eileen was staring at Leo with an extremely solemn expression.
Just a moment ago, Leo had forcibly brought her here with a method she could not comprehend.
Now, she couldn't even escape if she wanted to!
Leo's voice echoed in the space.
"Now, you can tell the truth."
"Tell me, what is your purpose in infiltrating Dalton and getting close to my daughter?"
"Who exactly are you?"
Eileen remained silent for a moment before her face once again showed an innocent expression.
"I... I was just passing through this city by chance, I didn't even know she was your daughter..."
Seeing that Eileen was still not telling the truth, Leo shook his head. His patience was limited.
He then raised his hand slightly.
In an instant, the entire space trembled violently.
A terrifying oppressive force, carrying the weight of billions of starborn, crashed down on Eileen!
In the blink of an eye, Eileen collapsed to the ground, unable to resist, with blood constantly spilling from the corners of her mouth.
In the face of such overwhelming power, she had no ability to fight back.
"Ah!!"
"Wait... wait a moment!"
A sickening cracking sound came from within Eileen's body.
It was clear that Leo showed no mercy!
Upon hearing Eileen's agonized scream, Leo's face remained indifferent.
If it were any other time, he might have been willing to converse more with her, but when it came to Lilith, it was a different matter entirely.
"Tell me the truth, and I might spare your life. Otherwise, you die!"
Eileen's face turned ashen.
She had never imagined that Lilith's father could be such a terrifying powerhouse, and his methods were so ruthless!
Had she known this, she would have chosen a different approach.
But she still refused to surrender.
The next moment, a faint and holy radiance slowly emanated from her body, momentarily alleviating some of the surrounding pressure and easing her complexion.
It was the power of her protective holy artifact!
With the strength of the artifact, Eileen struggled to rise to her feet, her face even showing a hint of provocation as she looked at Leo.
No matter how strong you are, what can you do to me?
This is a treasure that even those strongest in your world can't contend with!
Even the most powerful beings she had encountered in this plane were helpless against her holy artifact.
No matter how powerful the man before her was, he couldn't exceed the limits of this plane, could he?!
Seeing this, Leo only smiled mysteriously.
At that moment, he understood why Eileen had been able to ignore the barrier he had set up and enter Dalton Town.
It was likely due to such artifacts. But does that make her invincible?
Leo could indeed feel the powerful aura of the artifact, which even vaguely surpassed the limits of this plane.
But... is she comparing treasures with me?
Sorry!
Not only do I have overwhelming power, but I also possess far more treasures than you!
Leo casually took out an ancient badge.
The badge seemed to be forged from the core of chaotic starborn, with countless fine lines of law flowing on its surface.
Emblem of Order!
According to the system's description, this emblem contained the supreme powers of suppression and judgment!
Its strength had once quelled a massive law rebellion in a powerful plane, maintaining the stability of the world.
Leo casually threw the emblem into the void.
Boom—!!
With a sound like the opening of the heavens,
A giant character made purely of law materialized in the void—
"Judgment!"
As this character appeared, the pressure throughout the space grew exponentially!
Countless space fissures spread across the void like a spider's web!
"Ah—!!"
Eileen's scream echoed again, much more agonizing than before!
"This... this is the Emblem of Order?!"
"How could you possibly possess such a holy artifact?!"
Her voice was filled with pain and disbelief.
She couldn't understand why a being from such a lowly plane could possess a supreme artifact that even the Sanctum of Light, where she was from, didn't have!
Leo, however, paid no attention to Eileen's question. He just continued to manipulate the Emblem of Order in the void.
At this moment, the emblem had expanded several times in size, emitting a terrifying aura that made everything fall into stillness and caused laws to bend in submission.
Before the Emblem of Order, which could suppress even the will of the world itself, Eileen's resistance collapsed after only a brief struggle.
"Please... please stop... stop!"
"I... I'll tell you! I'll tell you everything!"
She begged in pain.
Buzz—
The terrifying pressure on her body instantly dissipated.
Leo appeared in front of Eileen in a flash, pressing his palm onto her forehead.
The next moment, a soul imprint containing absolute willpower penetrated deep into her soul, fusing entirely with her soul's essence.
As she felt her soul completely under his control, Eileen's expression went blank.
From this moment on, her life and death were entirely in Leo's hands!
How... how dare he!?
"Now you can speak."
Leo's tone left no room for doubt.
This was the only way he could feel at ease.
He was a cautious man, and the fact that Eileen's target was his daughter was something he absolutely could not tolerate.
He had to eliminate any potential threats.
Eileen raised her head.
The innocent facade on her face had completely disappeared, replaced by intense resentment and an ugly expression.
"Lowly inferior beings, remember what you've done today. I hope you... don't regret it!"
She glared at Leo, threatening in a hoarse voice.
However, what awaited her was the excruciating pain that came from the soul imprint being activated and tearing at her soul's core!
Watching Eileen writhing on the ground in agony, Leo furrowed his brow.
No way... After everything, she still dares to threaten me?
Where did this idiot come from?
Did she get kicked by a donkey or something?
"Speak honestly. I don't want to hear any more nonsense."
Leo's voice was icy.
Eileen slumped to the ground, her eyes bloodshot.
This time, she was truly terrified of the pain.
Having dominated this plane for so many years, she had never experienced such a crushing defeat or humiliation.
Though she hated Leo, she now realized the gravity of her situation.
"I am Eileen, from the Sanctum of Light, the granddaughter of the High Priest Selestin."
She almost gave up completely as she spoke.
Upon hearing Eileen's identity, Leo's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise.
An entity from an unknown higher-level plane!
But it didn't stir any significant emotion in his heart.
Invincibility was so... serene!
No one would understand!
"Now, tell me, why were you getting close to my daughter?"
Leo continued to ask.
Seeing Leo show no fear of her background, Eileen was somewhat surprised.
But under the pressure of the soul imprint, she had no choice but to tell the truth.
"I... I sensed that your daughter, Lilith, carries an unimaginable and immense force of fate. I... I just wanted..."
"You just wanted to take it for yourself, didn't you?!"
