Chapter 70 Final preparations (1)

The final demon temple that exists at the very center of the abyss that exists at the deepest level of the demon realm.

Jerk, jerk.

Within such a demon temple, one being was walking.

It was Wrath, the Four Great Dukes, who were now the only one left.

His face, as usual, was barely visible as he was wrapped in a robe, but the tightly closed lips visible under the hood clearly showed that his situation was very serious.

How long did it take to walk like that?

“Your Majesty.”

A low voice flowed from the angry mouth that finally stopped walking.

The Archduke’s eyes reflected the image of the Demon King looking at a statue in the center of the temple with his back turned to him.

To the king who did not respond to his calls,

“Acrimosia is dead.”

Anger began to speak.

“Three demon temples have been destroyed, and the imperial army has breached the border and is advancing without stopping for a moment. “It’s already just around the corner and it’s probably only a matter of time before we get there.”

“… … .”

The Demon King is still standing with his back turned without answering.

“A significant portion of power has already been lost, and the damage is still snowballing. It would not be an exaggeration to say that this is the biggest crisis since we came to this world, except for eons. No, if it continues like this… … “The Demon Region will definitely be destroyed.”

dump!

“Your Majesty.”

Anger knelt down towards the devil.

“please… … Please help us.”

A voice filled with strong wishes and even despair.

They didn’t think that their king would move even if they said this, but even so, Anger had no choice but to say this.

Because there was absolutely no other way.

Emperor Sion Agnes, who reigns with the despair of the devil and is even called the reincarnation of eternity, and the strongest army he commands of all time.

It was impossible to handle them alone.

Could it be that the Grand Duke’s feelings were conveyed?

“Sure.”

Words different from the expected anger flowed from the Demon King’s mouth.

“really… … is it?”

Even though I heard the answer I wanted, I couldn’t believe it and was angry at asking one more time.

“Now that everything is ready. Here too… … .”

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

“That place too.”

Ugh!

As the space behind the king split,

Kyaaaaa!

Inside, a world completely different from here and monsters with even more bizarre appearances began to appear.

* * *

It was a magical area completely covered with a black sky, but even in such a magical area, day and night existed.

In the middle of the night of the Demon Station, which was several times blacker than the Empire, Zion was fixating his gaze on something minutely visible at the end of the distant horizon.

The identity of that something was the abyss, the deepest part of the demon realm.

‘How much time is left now?’

With that thought, Sion recalled the process of the great war that had taken place so far in his mind.

Simultaneous attack on three demon temples.

The operation could ultimately be called a success.

Except for Sion himself, the other two detachments failed to kill the Prince of Wrath and his agents, but they succeeded in destroying the demon core, and as a result, the power of the demons also began to rapidly decline.

Therefore, the imperial army had no choice but to win the great battle that took place on the inland border.

‘Plus, the frantic death and the silence of the Demon King.’

Zion knew.

There is an optimal time for everything in the world.

Therefore, as soon as they won the great battle, they didn’t even take a break and used all their might to delve into the inside of the demon area like crazy, and Zion’s strategy worked out perfectly.

Because in all the battles that followed, they had reached this place, right in front of the deepest level of the demon realm, without losing even once.

‘There will soon be an all-out war.’

It is truly the final battle that will decide the fate of the world.

Of course, in the current situation, the Empire’s victory was likely, but Sion did not think that the Demon Army would fight like this.

‘I’m sure he’ll try a new trick.’

Like a cornered rat making its last struggle.

‘Furthermore, the Demon King will also appear.’

Devil.

A being about whom nothing is known except the appearance seen in a dream.

Although his past self overpowered that demon lord, Shion didn’t think that would continue until now.

He had not yet regained all of his past strength, and on the contrary, the Demon King had become much stronger than before.

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

With that thought, Sion thought of the magic core that the three ancient dragons, the Void Dragon Ghiagras, the Light Dragon Obergia, and the Black Dragon Kalonis, were working on with all their knowledge and magic.

When the work is completed, the power of time contained in the magic core will have been transformed so that Sion himself can use it.

‘It would be more certain if there were two other magic cores… … I have no choice but to be satisfied with this.’

With that thought in mind, Zion was about to take a step.

“You are here, Your Majesty.”

Deanna’s voice came from behind.

When Shion turned his head, he saw not only her, but also other members of the royal family, a group of warriors, and some of the top leaders who run the empire.

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

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

“say it.”

After hearing Deanna shrug her shoulders, Zion glanced at the people and asked.

“The soldiers are agitated.”

“Soldiers?”

“Yes, I think it’s about an all-out war that’s about to start. There also seems to be a fear of the devil who has not yet shown himself. With that… … “I think there’s something more unsettling about it because the human army has never marched this far in history.”

Shion laughed at her words and opened his mouth.

“From what I can see, it looks like you, not the soldiers, are anxious?”

“… … .”

Deanna and others fell silent at those words.

Because I couldn’t deny Zion’s words.

They remembered.

How strong was the Great Duke of Wrath and the Agent he faced at the Demon Temple?

If the battle had continued even after destroying the magic core, they could have been defeated.

Moreover, as I just said, the Demon King had not even revealed his appearance at all.

Therefore, even though the situation had become incomparably more favorable compared to the past, I could not shake off the feeling of anxiety rising in my heart.

“Okay, honestly, I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t anxious. “I’m not sure yet.”

Confidence that the Empire will win this war.

“I’m sure… … .”

At Deanna’s words, Zion looked at her for a moment and slowly opened his mouth.

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

“If you have a question… … .”

Deanna, who was thinking about something for a moment, asked again.

“Are you saying I asked Your Majesty why I could use the power of Eternity?”

“okay.”

“no. “I couldn’t find it.”

It had to be that way.

‘Be open to all possibilities and think for yourself.’

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

Even if I think about it again now, I still can’t figure it out.

A questioning light appeared in Deanna’s eyes as she thought that, but the words that flowed from Sion’s mouth were not an answer to that.

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

Although he called the former emperor by his name, there was no honorific title, but the words suited Sion very well.

“Cheon Seong-hae, a power passed down through Agnes’ direct royal family, is nothing more than a replacement.”

“… … !”

Because it was a secret passed down only to the emperor, the eyes of those who heard it were agitated.

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

“Because the power of Eternity was not passed down to future generations.”

Evelyn responded to Shion’s words this time.

She also had researched about Eonjeon in the past, so she knew the inside story to some extent.

Shion nodded at Evelyn’s words and asked again.

“that’s right. “Then why wasn’t the power of Eternity passed down?”

“that… … .”

The answer to that did not come easily.

There was no word about him at all, even among the royal family.

The truth recorded only in the hidden history of Majeok.

“From the beginning, that power was not something that could continue.”

A power that only the Black Star Emperor Orrelion Khan Agnes can use in the world.

“That means that no one other than Eon Eon can use that power.”

“Well, that doesn’t mean… … .”

Deanna, realizing something from Shion’s words, begins to extend her finger toward Shion with trembling eyes.

Now, an assumption is starting to come to Deanna’s mind.

It was absolutely ridiculous.

No, that was something that shouldn’t have made sense.

“There’s no way something like that would be possible…” … .”

“What are you talking about, Your Majesty?”

Next to Deanna, who was muttering blankly, other people who realized what Zion meant a little later started shouting with disbelieving expressions on their faces.

“No matter how much you say it’s your Majesty, this is an insult to eternity… … !”

But they also could not continue their conversation to the end.

It wasn’t that someone interrupted the conversation.

It was because of the thought that this might really be the case, rising from deep within their hearts.

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

Only then.

There were so many things that only fit together that way.

‘Yes, the prince, who was initially imprisoned due to his incompetence, ascended to the throne by overwhelming his brothers and sisters in just two years, and became strong enough to be said to be the strongest in the world… … It was all nonsense.’

Not only that, but the numerous achievements and salvation achieved by Emperor Zion in that short period of time.

There has never been a single person in history who has accomplished something similar to this, let alone someone who has accomplished something like this.

Except for eternity.

In addition, the personality, mood, and even power of it all.

At this level, it would be even more strange to say that it was not eternal.

“iced coffee… … .”

In people’s minds, the pieces of mystery they have had for so long begin to fit together one by one.

“Now that means… … “Do you mean that you are the reincarnation of Eternal Majesty Orrelion?”

Even in Evelyn’s mind as she asked that question, the image of Sion she had seen so far kept appearing in her mind.

At some point, my youngest brother’s appearance changed to the extent that he could no longer remember his soft past.

After listening to Shion’s words, everything turned out to be correct if he said that his memories of his previous life had returned.

“Whether it’s reincarnation, possession, or you don’t believe in it. I don’t care what you think. But that won’t change anything.”

Sion muttered softly as she looked at the people who were filled with shock and confusion, except for the warrior Flosimar, who knew the truth.

‘I guess this is enough for now.’

Shion also didn’t think they would believe it right now.

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

The confidence that I am with the undefeated emperor who is the founder of the empire and has never been defeated until now.

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

Next to him, Thierry, who was shaking with passion, knelt down towards Sion and shouted loudly.

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

at that time,

Phew!

“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 the Heo Murong, Giagras, who was in the basement of Baekseong Palace.

“… … !”

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

“Let’s go right in.”

Shion nodded towards the dragon and began to walk.

One of the people who had been watching Zion’s back until he completely disappeared from sight asked Kiagras in a dazed voice.

“… … Are you really saying that Your Majesty will live forever?”

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

The voice that came out of Heo Mu-ryong’s mouth was so natural.

“If the author is not Eternal, then who is Eternal?”

The dragon’s words began to belatedly send shivers down people’s backs.
