chapter 93
93 – Part 2, Chapter 49
The duel is over.
Haksal realized defeat, and at that moment, Shien was victorious.
Originally, a duel was about deciding whether or not to win, and there was no need for either one’s life to be cut off.
Just as the duel was over and Yellow’s power was gone, death intervened.
Those who rose to the throne by causing countless deaths now faced death themselves.
The divinity that had been shining red was dyed black.
The deity, who had been on his own, has now become an incarnation of another god.
“As expected, he is my enemy.”
“… Emperor. How many times have you interrupted me?”
A cool energy emanated from every word he said.
The world that trembled in fear before the power of slaughter is now completely silent.
“That’s how it should be. I am the rightful owner of the continent, and my enemies will never achieve anything.”
“As expected, he is like a descendant of the dragon. You speak well.”
“You know best that it is not just words.”
“It takes less than three years for a weak human to reach transcendence and attain a great status. Neither the old Kiriya nor Rausin were this organized.”
“Of course you wouldn’t be as good as Jim. Give up when you realize the gap.”
Death heard my words and said with a chuckle.
“You are still under me.”
Even if all the humans on the continent were combined, it was insignificant compared to the deaths carved on the continent so far.
Even a thousand-year-old empire fell short compared to the history of death that began with the continent.
The divinity felt from a mere incarnation was not pushed back by me.
Of course, this is the Empire. Being out of my realm also played a role.
In the wasteland where no kingdom was established, no one considered me emperor.
Rather, it was a land closer to death than me.
“If he was that confident, couldn’t he come back as his body? I’m not going to call for a massacre.”
“You should ask for forgiveness for that. It was not my intention to send the massacre now.”
Haksal, who became the embodiment of death, glared at Tiuria, the daughter of the Demon King, and said.
“Hey, you only weighed each time, why are you talking like an old man? Bill. Uh. Indian ink. Second. Year. Are you not doing this again?”
“Please understand that. It’s still hard for the continent to handle me, so if you don’t have such a wonderful body, you’ll be twisted little by little. Ah, the emperor. I apologize for the rudeness of the last time we met. I wasn’t normal at the time, and I was a little excited.”
Her death answered Tiuria in her calm tone, and in an instant she raised her life and glared at her.
Even though it wasn’t killing me, I felt that death was close by, and Shien, who returned to my side and escorted me, reflexively drew his sword.
But Tiuria didn’t care.
“Ah, how did I know Lausin would be resurrected? I was for you Think about it. Without Lausin, only Kiriya could handle the massacre. I don’t know if Artemia and the Green Dragon worked together, but the Green Dragon won’t come out of the Great Forest. If Kiriya comes down to this land, the old treaty will end immediately, so the plan is a success, right?”
Tiuria spoke of her plans without hesitation, even though Shien and I were listening, and her death did not take issue with it.
She acknowledged that she would be predicting that much, of course, and was confident that even if she knew, she would not be able to stop it in the end.
There was no lie in Tiuria’s words, but it didn’t feel like the whole truth.
Of course, it probably wasn’t just to cut down on the power of death.
I could feel the lies in her every gesture and every word she said.
It was not hiding a lie in the truth, but it was full of lies, so I felt like I didn’t even notice my intentions.
“hehehe… Words are flowing water. Did you hang out with the dragon and look alike?”
During the Great War, it was the paper dragon that killed the most demons.
Upon hearing that, the daughter of the demon king frowned.
“Isn’t that difficult to overhear?”
“What if I can’t hear it over? Even your father couldn’t take care of me.”
“So, if you abandon me now, will you be able to keep the initiative you’ve been holding? Won’t it?”
“… That’s right.”
“… What the hell did you come out for? If he was just interrogating the devil, he wouldn’t have bothered to incarnate the massacre.”
I opened my mouth as I glared at both of them fighting each other in front of me.
It was shocking how much attention was focused on that pitiful nerve war.
Kiriya felt from a high place, dragons felt from afar, Daegong waiting in close range and watching from Daesoorim
Gods and dragons.
The godhead and all beings comparable to him on the continent were watching that scene.
“Huh. It’s been a while everyone. How have you been?”
“At least the World Tree is doing well. I’ve moved once thanks to you, but it seems like I’m liking my new house. She even saw her granddaughter when you were plotting trivial things outside the continent.”
“That sounds kind of painful. Certainly, I lost to her before her. Death and life, I wondered what was stronger. Walking into the Old Woods was the stupidest choice I’ve ever made.”
“The second is choosing to be my enemy once again instead of living quietly in hiding.”
“So, didn’t you see it outside the Empire this time?”
Death laughed, saying he would never make the same mistake again.
“Look at this.”
The ground he was standing on turned black before he knew it.
Behind death, the world was already dyed black.
“I will not allow death to overtake the continent.”
“The original woman will reject the return of the old loser.”
As soon as I saw the sight, I immediately wrote a yellow word, and the Grand Duke nearby responded immediately.
“It’s useless.”
However, the already dead world was silent without even hearing the command of its owner.
“This is already my estate.”
“… How? Substituting to the continent would have been forbidden.”
As the Grand Duke said in amazement, Death spoke with a benevolent smile.
“A lot has already collapsed. Gods clashed with each other, so peace ended. It’s time to go back to the most brilliant time.”
At that moment, light fell from the sky.
The brightest and warmest light in the world drew a boundary line, preventing the darkness that swallowed the dead world from advancing any further.
Death was no longer cool, and the demon hid itself in the darkness.
The blood flow of the slaughter, the fierceness of the battle. The tension ahead of the mighty god attack.
I lost my presence in front of the light that descended on the continent.
“… You are finally here.”
“The time I wished would never come again has arrived.”
Light let out a sigh filled with pity.
If this is going to happen in the end, I regret that I had to move earlier, and I feel sad that I couldn’t stop it.
It was a deep lament that contained all of that.
Kiriya didn’t feel nervous at all even in front of the incarnation of death.
I was just lamenting that parts of the world were no longer bright, and I was worried about the blood that would flow in the future.
Kiriya’s light prevented the land of death from advancing, but on the contrary, it could not bring the land of the dead back to life.
It was a matter of compatibility, not a difference in rank.
Light only illuminates the darkness, isn’t it the power to revive the dead?
Since the World Tree has no reason to use its authority just for the wasteland, it would be correct to assume that the land is dead forever.
When Kiriya was lamenting, she heard a heartbeat that shook the heavens and the earth.
The roar I heard while watching the battle between the Turtles and the Masters was a roar that could be said to be small compared to the current sound.
“… Dragons in the sky, whales in the sea. They say they are wolves on the ground.”
Death heard the beating and spoke with emotion.
President living in the sea How could a mighty creature make such a roar?
The battle had begun.
A battle between the outcasts, the losers of the great old war, and the whale.
At the same time, the world was shaken.
Fireworks bigger than mountains burned in some areas, and typhoons raged in other areas.
I wasn’t driven out by defeat, but I couldn’t win either, so the gods who held their breath opened their eyes one by one.
Now the time has come for a new great war.
The world will once again burn with the horrors of war.
Everyone thought so.
The mighty transcendents and the gods also thought that a dark era where the future could not be predicted was right in front of their eyes.
“Not yet.”
Until I heard a mischievous voice from the dragon’s canyon far away.
The most capricious man in the world has once again been capricious.
In one instant, the light in the sky disappeared.
Three pairs of huge wings covered the sun.
One red, one blue dragon.
And the silver dragon that leads them both.
“… They.”
“Duke, do you know anyone?”
“Red dragon, blue dragon, and wizard.”
“Wizard… ?”
“A young dragon with exceptional magic skills. We called him Wizard. The Red Dragon and the Blue Dragon are the dragons that escort the Lord. Apparently, Lord wants them to set foot on this land right now.
It doesn’t look like it.”
Kiriya, who finally breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the incarnation of death in bewilderment.
“I can’t stop you from stepping on this land forever. But not now.”
She stretched out her hand to her death.
The god of the continent, the victor of the Great War.
A goddess who stays in the sky, rules the light, and is righteous.
The greatest god, who had never lost his power and never been defeated, reached out to her.
Death melted in front of the most brilliant light.
There was a huge difference in class between the incarnation of the loser and the body of the victor.
The energy of death disappeared first, and after that, not even the remains of the carnage left a trace.
I should have done this earlier.
Kiriya sighed with regret and said while looking at Shien and me.
“Emperor, let’s go see the Dragon Lord.”
