As soon as the declaration was made, Rex dropped Diamantona's corpse.
His strength was flushed out of his system in an instant, and his body toppled over, falling backward.
It felt like there was a switch in him that was finally killed—allowing his body to rest, knowing that the battle had been won. No need for him to be on guard anymore. As the winner of the Purgation Duel, the Cluster Custodian would protect him and the others.
At the same time, the protective barrier around the spectators' seats dispersed.
Lilliana leaped over almost instantly.
Her eyes darted to Davina and noticed that she was already healing—thanks to the full moons and stars bathing the entire new realm. As the Heiress of Moon and Stars, she would be able to recover from any wound as long as the moons and stars were right above her.
Despite her stab wound, she would be fine.
Naturally, she instantly pivoted and ran straight towards Rex to check on him.
