◈ Episode 97. What is there in life?

“your majesty!”

It sounded like a scream. A cheer, a cheer of joy, that came out as a single shout, like a scream of terror.

“The Demon King, the Demon King hugged Han Jae Won and blew himself up!”

The atmosphere inside the barracks was truly festive.

Even those respectable Emperor Knights could not hide their joy at the removal of a major obstacle to conquering the Earth.

So the other commanders and generals were in an uproar with their attendants.

However, Duke Ovillian, who was in charge of the Grand Marshal, was different. He was sharp in his search for the wizard.

“Count Jira!”

The wizard Jira was in charge of the analysis.

Mainly the waves of the enemies on the battlefield, the amount of power they expend, the amount of mana consumed by the allied knights or wizards, and how much more damage they can inflict in the future.

I was tasked with calculating such things in real time.

As the Duke of Oville calmly called out to him, Jira looked at the largest mana-seeking spherical orb.

The Mana-colored orb helps you trace the trail of the Demon King and Han Jae-won, who are fighting across the Pacific Ocean.

It has obviously changed color.

Count Jira checked it against the records and nodded.

“Your Majesty, according to the records, it is certain that Han Jae-won was hit by a greater amount of energy than when he first fought the Demon King several decades ago.”

Then the cheers almost broke out again.

Empress Parkni also tilted her upper body to look at Jira more closely.

Grand Marshal Duke Oville was not shaken this time either.

He quickly raises his hand to block out the sounds and asks Jira.

“What was the reaction of the two creatures with enormous energy? Did they both disappear?”

Then Count Gira hesitated a little.

“Uh, that, that, that, it’s difficult to trace in detail what happened on the other side of this horizon because it was just after such a large shock wave swept through. I think it would be best to reserve judgment until the aftereffects of the shock have subsided.”

Then, Grand Marshal Ovillian nodded.

Only then does one of the generals change his attitude and speak frankly.

“Your Majesty, we must first confirm whether Han Jae-won is dead or survived with serious injuries.”

Then Duke Ovillen snapped at him curtly.

“Does the Demon King not care whether you live or die? Does the Demon King look easy?”

“Your Majesty, the energy was so great that it shook the core of the ground beneath a single star. How could the Demon King be unharmed when he exploded with such energy?”

When one of the generals expressed his feelings like that, Obilian nodded his head.

But he began to calm down the excited generals little by little.

“Yeah, that’s true, but.”

“It’s none other than Han Jae-won. And it’s the Demon King who has been gnashing his teeth and waiting for the day to strike him down. Let’s not let our guard down on anyone.”

First of all, they are legions of soldiers who came to conquer a foreign star.

The General’s words were natural for a soldier to say, so no one could refuse them.

Only Count Jira was busy searching, pouring mana into the mana-colored beads with cold sweat running down his forehead.

One tick on a sundial, five minutes on Earth’s cell phone clock, felt like hell.

It was only after six more rounds of this hellish experience that news from Washington began to arrive.

It was the civilization of the Earthlings, not the Manapha colored beads.

Through my cell phone, I began to see sights of Washington.

Thanks to the fact that many of the Awakened people in Ishikawa Prefecture had their cell phones stolen, the key figures in the barracks were all watching the broadcast.

“Huh? No, that…!”

“Your Majesty, Your Majesty!”

The video was a crackling, noisy ride, and the debris was so vast that it was crumbling and turning into powder and spread out flat.

A landscape that makes it hard to believe that just a few hours ago this was a city with a population of millions.

It looked like the wind was blowing.

There was a figure kneeling on both knees and bowing his head.

Her arms were hanging limply on the floor, and her hair was blowing in the wind.

The tattered clothes looked so beggarly that it was hard to believe that they were beings who had not even blinked before any power.

A figure barely able to raise his head.

Then, the outline of the face slowly revealed itself.

One of his eyes is closed, covered in blood, and blood is seeping out through his closed eyelid.

Still, the appearance was certain.

“Ha, Han Jae-won!”

The screams erupted again.

Count Jira even covered his mouth with his hand.

He’s an analyst, so he’s the one who knows most exactly what kind of force that explosion just had.

You can’t stand that!

I almost peed my pants out of nowhere. That thing isn’t human!

“That, that, that kind of explosion… B, to endure it…!”

“Han Jae-won is alive, alive…!”

The generals were also surprised and jumped up.

And where everyone’s eyes were focused.

It was none other than Emperor Parkni.

“Your Majesty! Now is the time! Han Jae-won is clearly helpless, so we must strike before he recovers!”

Parkni’s ball was also squeaky.

My eyes are trembling.

“Praise be to Lennon! The royal family’s long-cherished wish will be fulfilled! The power, the power to rule the stars, should belong only to the royal family. Now strike Han Jae-won and restore your majesty, Your Majesty!”

All the generals and commanders repeat the advice of the Grand Marshal.

“Restore your majesty, Your Majesty!”

The sound was so loud that the tightly tied barrack cloth trembled.

Parkni, her eyebrows raised.

And now she finally blurts out the words she had endured and endured for decades.

“Wizards, prepare the gate spell! We will obtain the coordinates on the Earthlings’ cell phones, and the target is Washington, where Han Jae-won is!”

“I hereby receive the Emperor’s command!”

The work began to progress with the ministers’ loud response.

Parkni, she is finally going to hunt Han Jae-won.

Her eyes never left the cell phone that was beaming at Washington.

Her lips twitched so that no one could hear.

‘Han Jae-won, since you did not obey me, I will kill you.’

It was a story that should never have been told to the hero who saved Kabbalah.

But Parkni vowed that he would eventually say these words to Han Jae-won’s face.

My hands were shaking with excitement and nervousness.

At the same time, Washington.

Han Jae-won looked up at the sky while kneeling and spoke softly.

“How do you feel now?”

My lips were so dry and blood-covered that they wouldn’t come off easily, so my pronunciation was a bit slurred.

However, the Demon King, lying under Han Jae-won’s knees, could only cough up blood while grumbling.

And finally, the Demon King, who had reached a point where not only the power of the Demon King’s body was not working, but even the vampire’s unique healing power was not working, spat out pieces of his internal organs.

“Kuh-heek!”

And then, trying to breathe, he gasps for breath, his chest barely rising and falling.

But the breath was still lacking.

The Demon King realized that his power to spread mana and magic without limit was completely destroyed, and that his lungs were fatally wounded and his breath was leaking out.

Although he hated to say it, the Demon King had no choice but to admit that he was nearing his end.

The Demon King gritted his teeth and gathered his strength to have one last conversation.

This is the last thread of strength. If you use it all up, you will truly be destroyed.

But the Demon King had to talk to Han Jae-won.

“Feeling… more, love, kuweeek!”

The Demon King spits out blood and pieces of internal organs again.

But he gritted his teeth again, took a deep breath, and finished speaking.

“Feeling, dirty… Shh-ha-!”

The Demon King looked at Han Jae-won with resentment, who was crushing his chest and blocking his last breath that was trying to regenerate.

Han Jae-won didn’t bother to look at the Demon King’s last expression. He looked at the sky and said a word.

“It’s very cloudy.”

“Shh-ha-, I, ugh! I’m about to die, sob-! Even the heavens, can’t, can’t be indifferent, shh- ha-!”

It was a lie.

In fact, the sky was clear, not to mention clouds.

The Demon King had no eyes to see it, and no sense organs to feel it.

When you die, your ears are the last to go numb. The Demon King’s ears were barely able to hear sounds.

A scene from Han Jae-won, the lifelong enemy who is crushing his lungs.

“Are you upset?”

Jaewon asked, but the Demon King laughed and spat out blood.

“My hometown… was hard to live in.”

Jaewon nodded in agreement.

“Yeah, the Demon World really sucks.”

The Demon King’s speech began to slow down.

“Yeah… That’s why… I’ve always… wanted… to… go… up… to… the… human world…”

“You came up here.”

“Kekekeke-… But… Yes, you, you, I, I… Knocked… You… Out… Ah ha—”

The reason Jaewon laughed bitterly was because of the one word the Demon King had added with difficulty.

“You…guy… I…was…not…your…home…or…you…were…talking…about…it…”

Jaewon answered those words seriously.

“What could I have done back then?”

And when he said those words, the Demon King’s body had already begun to crumble.

Jaewon let out a “tsk.”

“Did you hear the excuse?”

Jaewon had never made this excuse to anyone.

I’ve finally said something really precious to you, but-

The Demon King could not answer.

The soul, the very existence, has been annihilated and returned to the origin of the universe, becoming a mana wave.

Only the body remained and it was falling apart.

And so the Demon King disappeared.

Jaewon looked at the clear, blue sky with his one eye that was not opening and smiled.

“Then why did you attack me? Why did you attack me? Why don’t you just hide and live quietly?”

If that were really the case, Jaewon wouldn’t have gone to such lengths.

Jaewon slowly stood up, holding his creaking knees as he held down the Demon King’s regeneration for a long time.

“Huh-!”

Jaewon groaned.

How long has it been since something like this happened?

Now that I think about it, that was when I fought the Demon King.

Of course, the Demon King at that time never had the power to destroy an entire star.

It’s different now.

Earth is Jaewon’s home planet, and the Demon King wants revenge on Jaewon for destroying his home planet.

It failed.

The Earth did not break, and the resources that had blocked that much energy did not die.

The Demon King failed in his revenge.

Just that one simple fact.

Jaewon limped and took a step forward, even letting out a monologue that he rarely did.

“That’s it, yeah. What else is there in life?”

Blood is flowing out-

A red line drawn over the broken concrete pebbles.

Jaewon limped and searched his pockets.

The jewel that Glatzko gifted came out.

This isn’t broken.

Jaewon took a deep breath and tightened his grip on the jewel.

And at that moment, across the Pacific Ocean, in Korea, a pair of linked jewels vibrated.

-Brother?-

It was a smoke.

Jaewon also let out a bitter smile when he heard the voice suppressing the trembling, full of tears.

“Oh, it’s me. Hey, why are you crying?”

-No, I just, I just like it. Because my brother is safe… –

Jaewon laughed when he heard Heeyeon crying.

“Me? I’m always safe.”

Big explosion.

It was analyzed through seismic waves that the shock wave that reached the Earth’s core was a real news story.

It was also said that a force that suppressed that shock wave was discovered.

It was so obvious who it belonged to, I didn’t even have to say anything.

Hee-yeon also laughed along with Jae-won’s laughter. She was shedding tears.

Then Jaewon’s words suddenly stopped.

Hee-yeon soon became anxious and asked urgently.

“Oh, something came up.”

Jaewon ground his teeth.

“Wow, you’re coming in at the perfect time. Well, if you didn’t have that kind of brain, would you have been in power for so long?”

A gate was being created.

The gate that will soon become clear. The voice that walks out of that gate and shouts.

It was a hype.

Parkni waited for decades and finally appeared before Han Jae-won.

Leading all thirteen Emperor Knights.

Jaewon took a deep breath, as if he was really fed up with it.

A new fight was about to begin.
