Grim Reaper in the Apocalypse: Reaping Immortals-Chapter 387: Same circumstance
Atlan pierced through the heart of the Queen. His sword sunk deeply into her chitinous armor, penetrating her innards and reaching the most vital part of her body.
She might have escaped from her weakness, Tulip, which allowed her to regenerate some of her health, however, Atlan just came in time to finish the job.
Just when the Dragon Queen Malificient thought that she would come out of this unscathed, Atlan suddenly made another injury to her body, weakening it enough to have the Cherubic Retribution lightning tear through her body.
The regenerating chitin on the Queen’s body stopped as the chaos and destruction caused by the Angel power in her body started to retake control. Her strong chitin, which would have allowed her to survive even in the toughest of situations, was now starting to burn into nothing but ashes.
Slowly, the Malificient Dragon Queen’s face turned paler and paler, with cracks appearing under her skin.
She had lost. If only she had known that Atlan had the power of the Angels, then she would have made sure to kill him first. Or if that wasn’t possible, she could have run away for now.
In the last dredges of her life, the Dragon Queen Malificient looked Atlan in the eyes, conveying her anger and her fury at him for one last time.
And by resisting the disintegration effect of the Cherubic Retribution had on her body, using the last energy spurt in her mind, she opened her mouth and spoke to Atlan.
’Ha..hahaha…human…you will pay….they will come…’
And in her last words, the Dragon Queen finally turned into nothing but ashes, slowly dissipating away from the wind in the air.
Atlan felt the power in his sword weaken, finally having finished its job.
He looked around and saw the dragon clones fading just like the original, turning their magnificent scales that could protect them from an atomic bomb, into nothing but ashes.
Finally, it was just him at the top of the skies, looking down at everything under his feet.
He couldn’t believe it. He had done it. He had killed a Specialist-level Canzer all by himself. And it wasn’t just a regular old Specialist Canzer, it was a Dragon of all species. It was perhaps the strongest one out there in the world.
Of course, he couldn’t have done it without other people’s help, but it was the undeniable truth that he was the one that injured her to this extent, and sunk the final blow to her death.
He killed her. Plain and simple.
But it didn’t come at a cost.

Atlan unfurled the Angel Wings in his back, allowing him strength and speed, unlike anything he had ever experienced before.
He disappeared from the air and reappeared further below, holding the lifeless body of Tulip in his hands.
He looked at her face and saw nothing but relief in her expression. Just as she thought, Atlan would be able to fulfill her wishes to the very end. And because of that, she would gladly welcome death that came for her.
Atlan couldn’t help but shed a tear for the helpless little Canzer. Even though she was the weakest out of all of them, she turned out to be the strongest.
She was able to hold her own against the Dragon Queen Canzer, allowing herself to be taken captive by her, only to turn things around and capture the Queen instead. It was a moment of brilliance that Atlan would never forget in his life.
Atlan was only able to kill her because of Tulip’s sacrifice. If she hadn’t weakened the Dragon Queen Malificient to the point of immobility, then Atlan wouldn’t have had the time to target her with his Cherubic Retribution LifeSkill.
But now, her bravery came at a cost.
Because she was so close to the Queen, she was also affected by the Cherubic Retribution. It wreaked havoc on her small and fragile body.
Atlan had to be careful because he felt as if any large movements and Tulip’s body would start to fade away into the wind.
He looked at her face and saw the cracks starting to propagate throughout her body. She was also starting to disintegrate, but he didn’t want that to happen. He wanted her to have a proper burial. At least then, she would be at peace in her home.
He floated back towards the three good fairies. They all surrounded Tulip with tears in their eyes.
But just when he thought they’d cry their hearts out at this tragedy, the three good fairies looked at Atlan with a tinge of hope and desperation.
Atlan looked at their eyes, but couldn’t decipher their intentions.
’What do you want me to do?’ he asked them.
But the three good fairies kept their mouths shut. Even though they wanted to tell him, they couldn’t. The prophecy forbids them from doing so. After all, if they told him the truth, then it wouldn’t happen.
Atlan needed to figure it out for himself.
But still, the three good fairies could give him hints.
’Human…have you seen this before? You must have felt that all of this is familiar…’ the red fairy said.

Atlan looked at the fairies with a confused face. He didn’t understand what they were talking about.
I’ve seen this before? Atlan asked himself. But of course, he would remember whether he experienced this specific moment before.
Maybe they’re not talking about this specific moment…where have I experienced a similar moment?...where have I seen this before…
And as he kept trying to remember, it finally clicked.
And the revelation in his mind was so shocking that he couldn’t help but take a step back. He looked at Tulip, and then back at the memory in his mind.
The more he thought about it, the more it made sense.
He couldn’t believe it.
Tulip almost had the same exact circumstances as the White Beauty!
They were both princesses who were being hunted down by their Queen who turned out to be a dragon!
