70 Final Preparation (1)

Among the abyss that exists in the deepest part of the demon realm, the last demon temple that exists at the center.

bum bum, bum bum.

Within such a demon temple, a single being was moving.

It was Rage, the fourth great prince who now had only one left.

His face was almost invisible, wrapped in robes as usual, but his clenched lips under the hood showed the seriousness of his condition.

how far did you walk

“ King.”

A low voice came from the mouth of anger that finally stopped walking.

In the eyes of such an archduke, the figure of the demon king was reflected in the center of the temple, looking at a certain statue with his back turned to himself.

To the king who does not respond to his call,

“ Acrimosia is dead.”

Anger began to speak.

“ The three demon temples have been destroyed, and the imperial army is advancing without stopping for a moment after breaking through the border. We’re already close, and it’s probably just a matter of time before we get there.”

“… … .”

The demon lord who still stands with his back turned without an answer.

“ A significant portion of our power has already been lost, and the damage is still snowballing. It would not be an exaggeration to say that it is the greatest crisis since we came to this world, except for eons. No, if it’s like this… … The demon will surely perish.”

dump!

“ King.”

Anger knelt toward such a demon king.

“ Please… … Please help us.”

A voice that was so desperate that it could not contain a strong desire.

They didn’t think their king would move if he said this, but his anger had no choice but to say this.

Because there was no other way.

Emperor Zion Agnes, who reigns with the despair of the devil and is even called the reincarnation of eternity, and the strongest army he has ever had.

It was impossible to handle them alone.

Had such a grand duke’s heart been conveyed?

“ I do.”

Words different from the expectations of anger flowed out of the demon king’s mouth.

“ Really… … is it?”

Anger that asks one more time, not believing it even though he has heard the answer he wants.

“ Now that everything is ready. Also here… … .”

It was the moment when the Demon King nodded his head and turned towards the Grand Duke.

“ There too.”

Wow!

At the same time as the space behind the king was torn apart,

aa

In it, a world completely different from this place and even more bizarre demons began to appear.

* * *

It was a demon that was covered with a black sky, but day and night existed even in such a demon.

In the middle of the night in the Darkness Station, several times darker than the Empire, Shion fixed her gaze on something faintly visible at the far end of the horizon.

The true identity of something was the abyss, the deepest part of the demonic realm.

‘ How much time do you have left?’

With that thought, Zion recalled the process of the great war in his head.

Simultaneous attack of three demons.

The operation was ultimately a success.

Except for Zion himself, the other two detachments were unable to kill the Grand Duke and Agent of Rage, but they succeeded in destroying the Demon Core, and as a result, the power of the Demonic Spirits also began to decline rapidly.

Of course, the great battle that took place at the inland border had no choice but to be won by the Imperial Army.

‘ In addition to the death of madness and the silence of the Demon King.’

Zion knew.

That there is an optimal time for everything in the world.

Therefore, as soon as he won the great battle, he did not even have a break and mobilized all his powers to delve into the inside of the magic station like crazy, and Shion’s strategy was perfect.

In all the battles that followed, he had reached this place, right in front of the deepest part of the Demon Station, without being defeated even once.

‘ There will be an all-out war soon.’

The final battle that truly determines the fate of the world.

Of course, under the current situation, victory for the Empire was most likely, but Sion did not think that the demon would fight like this.

‘ I’m sure I’ll make a new masterpiece.’

Just like a cornered rat makes its last move.

‘ In addition, the Demon King will also appear.’

Devil.

Except for the appearance he saw in his dreams, nothing is known about him.

The past self overpowered the demon lord, but Shion did not think that it would continue until now.

Because he had not yet regained all of his past powers, and on the contrary, the Demon King was much stronger than before.

‘ That’s why you have to raise it to 8 stars before the battle.’

With that thought, Shion remembered the magic core that the three old dragons, the Hummy Dragon Giagrass, the Light Dragon Obergia, and the Black Dragon Kalonix, poured all their knowledge and magic into the work.

When that work is completed, the power of time contained in the Demon Core must have been transformed so that Zion himself can use it.

‘ If there were two other magic cores, it would be more certain… … I can’t help but be satisfied with this.’

With that thought, it was time for Zion to move.

“ You are here, Your Majesty.”

Diana’s voice came from behind.

Shion’s eyes turned to see her, as well as other members of the royal family, a group of warriors, and some of the top leaders who moved the empire.

“ What’s going on? It’s a group like this.”

“I have something to tell you. Of course, I had no idea that so many people would want to see His Majesty at this hour.”

“ Tell me.”

Shion, who had glanced at the people once at Diena’s words, asked as she shrugged.

“ The soldiers are agitating.”

“ Soldiers?”

“ Yeah, I think it’s about an all-out war that is about to start soon. There seems to be a fear of the Demon King who has not yet appeared. With him… … I think there’s something even more disturbing because no human force has ever marched this far in history.”

At her words, Shion smiled and opened her mouth.

“ From my point of view, you guys, not the soldiers, seem anxious?”

“… … .”

At those words, Diena and others were silent.

Because I couldn’t deny Zion’s words.

they remembered

How strong were the Grand Duke and his agent of anger he faced in the Demon Temple.

If the battle continued even after destroying the Demon Core, they could have been defeated.

Moreover, as I just said, the Demon King hadn’t even revealed his appearance at all.

Therefore, even if the situation had become more favorable compared to the past, he could not erase the uneasiness that rose from his heart.

“ Yeah, honestly, I would be lying if I said I wasn’t nervous. I am not sure yet.”

Confidence that the Empire will win this war.

“I ’m sure… … .”

At Diena’s words, Shion, who looked at her for a moment, slowly opened her mouth.

“ Did you find the answer to the question you asked me in the past?”

“ If you have a question… … .”

After thinking about something for a moment, Diena asked again.

“ Did I ask your majesty why you could use the power of the Aeons?”

“ Yes.”

“ No. I couldn’t find it.”

I had no choice but to do so.

‘ Open all possibilities and think for yourself.’

Because the answer I heard from Zion at that time was very vague.

Thinking back on it now, I can’t figure it out.

A suspicious light appeared in Diena’s eyes as she thought that way, but the words that came out of Shion’s mouth were not the answer.

“ In the past, Urdios said this just before he died.”

Even though he called the Emperor’s name, he didn’t have any honorifics, but those words fit Shion so well.

“ The natural sea, the power passed down to Agnes’ immediate royal family, is only a substitute.”

“… … !”

Because it was a secret handed down only to the emperor, the eyes of those who were listening were young.

“ Then do you know why such a natural sea was created?”

“ Because the power of the Eternal Age has not been passed down to future generations.”

To Shion’s words, this time, Evelyn answered.

She, too, had known about the Eternal Eternity in the past, so she knew what was going on to some extent.

Shion nodded at Evelyn’s words and asked again.

“ Right. Then, why didn’t the power of the Eternal Age not come to pass?”

“ That… … .”

The answer to him did not come easily.

Because there was no word from the royal family about him.

The truth recorded only in the hidden history of witchcraft.

“ From the beginning, that power wasn’t something that could be continued.”

A power that only the Black Holy Priest Orrelion Khan Agnes can use.

“ In other words, no one other than the Eternal Emperor can use that power.”

“ Well, that means… … .”

Diana, realizing something at Shion’s words, began to extend her fingers toward Shion with her fluttering eyes.

Now, a family is starting to emerge in Diena’s own head.

It was really absurd.

No, it wasn’t meant to be.

“ Is that possible… … .”

“ What are you talking about, Your Majesty?”

Next to Diena, who was muttering blankly, the other people who realized Zion’s meaning a little later began to shout with disbelief expressions.

“ No matter how much you ask me to destroy it, this is an insult to the Eternal Eternal System… … !”

But they also didn’t finish it.

It wasn’t that someone stopped talking.

It was because of the thought that came from deep within their minds that it might indeed be so.

‘ It doesn’t make sense, but it’s nonsense that doesn’t even make sense… … .’

Only then.

So many things just fit together.

‘ Yes, the prince, who was imprisoned because of his incompetence in the first place, defeated his brothers and sisters by an overwhelming difference in just two years and ascended to the throne, and the fact that he became strong enough to be said to be the strongest in the world… … It was all nonsense.’

Not only that, but the many achievements and salvation that Emperor Zion has built in that short period of time.

There has never been a single person in history who has done something like this, let alone something like this.

Except for the eons.

The tendency, the atmosphere, and even its power.

If this was the case, it would have been strange to say that it was not an eternal system.

“ Ah, ah… … .”

In people’s heads, the pieces of doubt they had in the past begin to come together one by one.

“ Now that means… … Your Majesty, do you mean the reincarnation of His Majesty Orrelion in the Eternal Age?”

Even in Evelyn’s head as she asked that question, the image of Shion she had seen during that time kept coming to mind.

At a certain moment, the appearance of the youngest brother has changed to such an extent that he cannot remember what he had been weak in the past.

When I heard Zion’s words, if I could say that the memories of my previous life came back, everything was right.

“ Reincarnation, possession, or not believing. I don’t care what you think. That won’t change anything.”

Except for Flosimar, the hero who knew the truth, Zion muttered softly as he looked at the people engulfed in astonishment and confusion.

‘ This should be enough for now.’

Zion also didn’t think they would believe right now.

Once the seed has been sown, people will accept it in their own way before the war, and it will be reborn as a conviction.

The conviction that he is with the invincible emperor, the founder of the empire and who has never been defeated.

“ Oh, Your Majesty! I believed it from the beginning! The fact that His Majesty is the reincarnation of Eternal Eternals!”

Thierry, who had fallen with passion next to him, knelt toward Zion and shouted loudly.

In the first place, ‘Shadow of Eternity’ was an institution closely related to the Eternal Eternal System, and Thierry himself fanatically worshiped the Eternal Eternal System, so it was a natural reaction in a way.

at that time,

Whoops!

“ Orrelion, the work is finished.”

A handsome man with light gray hair appeared next to Shion and opened his mouth.

It was the human form of Giagrass, the Humming Dragon that was in the basement of the People’s Palace.

“… … !”

People’s eyes flutter once again at the name of the dragon calling Zion.

“ Let me go right in.”

Shion nodded towards the dragon and began to move.

One of the people who was looking at Zion until he completely disappeared from sight asked Giagras in a blank voice.

“… … Are you really saying that your Majesty is eternal?”

“ Hmm, humans are so stupid. You can’t even see it with your own eyes.”

A very natural voice that came out of Huh Moo-ryong’s mouth.

“ If the author isn’t the epoch, then who the hell is the epoch?”

At the dragon’s words, tremors began to rise behind the people’s backs.
