Online Game: I Started with Max Charisma and Caught the Goddess's Eye

As the vines surged toward them with terrifying speed, Luca wasted no time. He immediately activated the fire magic runes.

A towering wall of fire descended from the sky, acting as a barrier between him and the advancing vines.

With the fire wall providing cover, Luca and Nova darted toward the back entrance of the stadium, their urgency clear.

The sudden appearance of Congressman Devitt made them both realize just how dangerous their situation had become.

Even if a final confrontation was inevitable, they could not afford to face him within the confines of the stadium.

Bursting through the back door, they emerged into an open area.

“Which way do we run?” Nova asked, panic creeping into her voice.

“We don’t run!” Luca replied sharply as he quickly activated the shadow magic runes. “We fight him here!”

Before he had even finished speaking, the entire stadium collapsed with a thunderous roar.

Countless vines twisted together to form a massive, towering tree creature. At its core stood Congressman Devitt, the source of the chaos.

In his hand, Devitt tightly gripped the Ord of Chaos, which glowed with a blinding purple light, radiating immense power.

Luca, seeing the towering tree creature, wasted no time. He began generating the Dreamweaving Mist, hoping to buy himself some time.

Though the Dreamweaving Mist wouldn’t be enough to fully disrupt the powerful Devitt, it would at least give Luca a slight advantage.

Within the mist, his movements became swifter, and without hesitation, he charged toward the massive tree creature.

Nova, still recovering from the shock, didn’t have time to fully assess the situation.

However, after a brief moment of panic, she dropped into a half-crouch, quickly reconfiguring her specialized handgun into a rocket launcher.

Without hesitation, she launched rockets at the massive tree creature, one after another. Each rocket soared through the air, heading directly for the beast.

Meanwhile, Devitt was far from idle.

Countless vines continued to sprout from the tree creature, quickly expanding outward, spreading across the surrounding area.

As Luca closed in on the giant tree, the vines almost completely engulfed the stadium and the small plaza beside it.

Even with the Dreamweaving Mist aiding him, the vines significantly slowed his movements, their overwhelming force proving difficult to evade.

Realizing that further progress was impossible, Luca activated the fire magic runes once again.

Massive fireballs rained down from the sky, streaking toward the tree creature below.

At the same time, Luca swiftly switched the fire magic runes to storm magic runes.

A fierce wind suddenly erupted around him, intensifying as it began to whip the flames toward the towering tree creature with unstoppable force.

With the aid of the raging wind, the flames became far more intense than before.

The massive tree creature was instantly engulfed by the fierce blaze.

Congressman Devitt had transformed into a towering inferno, his form swallowed by the flames.

The entire core area of Lakeside City was illuminated by the fierce fire, the glow so bright that even Fuzzsir and Melania, who were in the northern hills of the city, could see the flames rising into the sky.

“This battle is incredibly intense! This must be the final showdown between Luca and the enemy, right?” Melania murmured, her voice still a little weak as she had yet to fully recover. Her mind was still somewhat foggy, but she could still manage to get a rough sense of the situation.

At her inquiry, Fuzzsir shook his head in silence.

He too could tell that the battle was extremely fierce, but he had no way of confirming if this was indeed the final confrontation.

The light from the battle had drawn the attention of all the monsters in Lakeside City.

They slowly began moving toward the core area of the city.

As these monsters gathered together, the chaotic power surrounding them grew to such an overwhelming degree that it began to distort reality itself.

Zenobia, who had been waiting for the right moment, finally saw her chance.

She watched the ongoing battle with growing excitement.

“I just need a few more minutes!” she thought, her eyes gleaming with anticipation. “I will finally get my revenge! I’ll make Luca and Sophia suffer for all eternity!”

As she called upon the chaotic energy within the Nest, she eagerly awaited the point when reality would begin to warp even more.

In just a few minutes, the distortion would reach its peak.

At that point, the entire core area of Lakeside City would be completely severed from the real world by the chaotic energy.

Chaos would become the sole ruler of this altered zone.

With this immense power, Zenobia would finally have the strength to defeat Luca once and for all.

The three people locked in combat remained unaware of the changes occurring around them.

Each of them was fully absorbed in the battle at hand.

Though Luca’s attack had been successful, it had only inflicted a preliminary wound on Congressman Devitt.

Luca knew very well that Devitt’s retaliation could be fatal, and so, after landing his blow, he quickly vanished into the shadows, readying himself for whatever came next.

Nova, on the other hand, was still stunned by the sight of Devitt now transformed into a massive, living torch.

She had not expected Luca’s attack to be so effective.

But after a brief moment of shock, she shook it off and became even more focused, redoubling her efforts to continue her assault.

A barrage of rockets was launched into the air, their impact further intensifying the flames.

These rockets not only dealt additional damage but also enhanced the already overwhelming firestorm engulfing the battlefield.

The one in the worst state, of course, was Congressman Devitt, who was burning uncontrollably in the inferno.

He had never imagined that he would be dealt such a crippling blow so early in the fight.

The vines, now reduced to ashes, signified a drastic weakening of his chaotic power. Despite the Ord of Chaos augmenting him, he found himself unable to quickly replenish the chaotic energy he had lost.

At the same time, the damage caused by the flames tore into his very soul, inflicting excruciating pain.

Devitt let out a furious scream, his voice seething with rage.

“I will never forgive you! You will pay a price far beyond what you can endure!”

As he howled in fury, he poured more of his chaotic power into the Ord of Chaos, striving to regain his strength.

The overwhelming chaotic energy allowed him to gradually suppress the flames and even summon a new wave of vines.

The fire enveloping the massive tree creature began to subside, its intense heat fading as Devitt regained his footing.

He had managed to stabilize his condition, but now, his rage was directed at the situation around him.

Luca and Nova had disappeared.

They had both hidden in the shadows, preparing for their next move, ready to strike again.

“You two cowardly fools!” Devitt shouted angrily. “You pretended to have the courage to attack me just now, but now you’re hiding, too afraid to face me?!”

He continued to rant, using his Perception abilities to search for the two who had gone into hiding.

However, his taunts and threats were in vain.

Luca and Nova, though they had not exchanged any words, both instinctively knew exactly what to do next. Their coordination was flawless.

After two minutes of fruitless searching, Devitt’s frustration began to build.

He was about to open his mouth to taunt them once more when, suddenly, he noticed Nova charging out from a nearby building.

“Then let me deal with you first!” he snarled.

A massive surge of vines shot down from the sky toward Nova.

To his surprise, Nova didn’t attempt to evade. Instead, she charged straight toward him without hesitation.

This sudden, direct approach puzzled Devitt, leaving him slightly confused.

However, when the vines finally touched Nova, he froze in realization.

Nova wasn’t there at all—she was merely an illusion.

In the next instant, Luca, wielding the Starseeker and channeling immense power, charged from behind Congressman Devitt.

Devitt had no time to react.

The Starseeker struck the root of the massive tree form Devitt had taken, its blade sinking deep into the wood.

The moment the Starseeker made contact, countless vines lost their vitality, their life force quickly draining away. Luca seized the opportunity and pressed the attack.

With relentless strikes, Luca shattered the vines connecting the tree to the ground in just a few short minutes, the entire foundation of Devitt’s power crumbling beneath him.

By the time Devitt realized what was happening, it was too late for him to expect any help from Zenobia.

Without the vines, he had no way of drawing chaotic energy from the earth beneath him.

The Ord of Chaos in his hand began to flicker and fade, its brilliance dimming.

“This can’t be! This is impossible!” Devitt shouted in disbelief. “After all my meticulous preparation, how could I possibly be defeated by you so easily?!”

He understood now that victory was out of reach.

In a desperate last attempt, he shouted at the top of his lungs, “Zenobia! Fulfill your promise! You have to come and save me!”

But Luca’s voice was cold and resolute as he responded, “She’s too late to save you. Before she even arrives, I’ll have already killed you.”

By now, Luca had closed the distance and stood directly before Devitt.

Without the support of the vines, Devitt had been reduced to the size of an ordinary man.

Faced with Luca’s direct threat, Devitt glared at him with burning hatred.

“You seriously underestimate Zenobia’s power,” he spat, his voice dripping with venom. “She was once a chaos deity. If she wants to save me, she’ll make it in time, no matter what.”

Luca let out a bitter laugh.

“I haven’t underestimated Zenobia’s power. I know very well she was a chaos deity. But don’t you want to know why she hates me so much?” he said, his tone almost taunting. “I’ll tell you now—her divine rank is something I took from her!”

Devitt stood frozen, his eyes wide in shock.

He couldn’t believe what Luca was saying, but the power Luca had just displayed made his words seem far more plausible.

As Devitt struggled to process the revelation, the chaotic power distorting reality itself finally reached its breaking point.

It was at this moment that Zenobia’s voice echoed in their ears, her tone filled with an eerie certainty.

“Luca is right,” Zenobia’s voice echoed with a chilling certainty. “He did indeed strip me of my divine rank. But that was nothing more than a stroke of luck on his part. Today, I will make him understand the true extent of my power, and he will pay a heavy price for what he’s done!”

As Zenobia’s words resonated through the air, the chaotic power surrounding them surged, and in an instant, the core area of Lakeside City was completely severed from the reality they knew.

What had once been a familiar world was now an alien realm—a space completely detached from any other world or dimension.

The very fabric of reality had been torn apart, and now the space they occupied existed in a strange, isolated bubble, cut off from the rest of existence.

The only way for the core area of Lakeside City to return to the real world was to weaken the chaotic energy that had warped it, a task that seemed impossible in the face of such overwhelming power.
