[ Episode 370. Toward the end]

The time of contemplation became longer.

The probability of success is only 50%.

My hands were shaking because I couldn’t predict what would happen if I failed.

[“Hehe, I don’t have time. You’ll have to decide quickly.”]

I heard what Original Sin was saying, but I couldn’t hear it very well. All my nerves were on Vivian.

‘If you fail, you get a penalty. But will Vivian be the same...’

I couldn’t figure it out.

But right now, this was the only thing I could do to save her.

But what if it goes wrong?

[“Did you think you could get everything? Do you think where you live is a fairy tale? All of the people who have died at your hands so far have had their own lives and lives. Don’t you think I’m too greedy for the subject of stepping on my life?”]

“You’re right.”

In my previous life and now, I always sacrificed someone’s life to survive.

“But so what?”

Even if I go back to the past and the same situation comes, no, even if it happens again and again in the future, my choice will not change.

It didn’t matter if you cursed at me for being selfish.

I wasn’t a saint, and I wasn’t that grandiose.

‘I wouldn’t be able to bear it if the result of all those things was to lose Vivian, but...’ It

was a time of choice.

I accepted the message that appeared in front of Vivian’s sleeping face.

[Vivian Cromwell]

[Evolving...]

[Remaining time: 715 hours 41 minutes 03 seconds]

The die was thrown.

Approximately 720 hours came out, but in terms of days, it was about 30 days.

[“Yes, life is always a series of choices. Still, you’ve made not-so-bad choices so far. Honestly, I haven’t lost anything.”]

“What’s your name.”

[“What?”]

“Isn’t it time to tell you at least the name? Your name is not the original sin.”

I hugged Vivian carefully.

As if there was no pain caused by evolution, he seemed to be sleeping peacefully.

[“I was called the observer. There was a similar name, but I’ve forgotten it for a long time.”]

Actually, I wasn’t curious about the name.

It was just a story that I brought up because I needed someone to talk to somehow, but it was meaningless to find out.

“Are you done?”

Angela, freed from bondage, came over and looked at Vivian and sighed.

“Aren’t you dead?”

“yes.”

“What about your mother?”

“It is extinct. Now you will be able to inherit the position of queen.”

Despite the uproar, the altar remained intact.

Angela saw that, nodded, and patted my shoulder.

“great job.”

“I’ll just go.”

“......I’ll post directions. And when the succession is over, I’ll go see it this time.”

“yes.”

Even though I was talking to Angela, my mind was all over Vivian.

Did I really make a good choice?

Lust was obtained, but Vivian was put into a coma. If I had known this would happen, would I have given up lust?

‘For now...’

......Let’s go home.

I missed my family.

**

I was so distraught that I did not know how I got back to Cromwell. Thanks to that, it was a time where I could feel that I was such a weak person.

“Sister Vivian?”

The first person I met was Lucia.

Hollington had fled to our estate with most of his family and family.

“Are you sleeping?”

“......uh.”

Lucia’s eyes twitched.

“Are you going to deal with the emperor?”

“Compassion and honor.”

At my words, Evan’s expression strangely changed.

“Are you saying that there are other purposes as well...?”

“I originally had an idea to go to the Shaiya Desert.”

Come to think of it, many things were intertwined in the Shaiya Desert.

There was gluttony, which was a sin, and my favorite sword, Galaksur, also came from the Shaiya Desert.

‘I heard from Wu Guan that Luna’s blood relatives were also in the place where the Shaiya Desert used to be. Before it becomes a desert...’

In addition, Sin, a heterogeneous organization related to Agatha and Deshurn, also had its base in the Shaiya Desert.

Now that even the emperor was there, it was a land where various circumstances and ties were intertwined.

“Then, do you have any idea why the emperor went to the desert?”

“That’s not correct for me either.”

Could it be because of sin?

But one question remained.

If you really went to the Shaiya Desert because of your sin, shouldn’t you have targeted me?

I just closed my eyes and said nothing, but the emperor must already be convinced that I have the original sin.

‘But why did you go to the desert without targeting me first?’

I honestly don’t know why he went all the way there if he wasn’t looking for gluttony.

“Evan.”

“Did you call?”

“Can I go with you?”

“Of course. Rather, it is an honor.”

If only the emperor was blocked, virtually all destruction-level episodes would have been prevented. Then there is no need to save power.

“We will mobilize all available numbers.”

“I will pass on the master’s orders to the other members.”

“As soon as Morne arrives, we will depart. Please.”

“Has confirmed.”

Evan lowered his head in response and immediately moved. Probably going to Salem or Maximin.

‘Vivian.’

My goal was to finish everything before she woke up. To live a happy life with her and everyone without any more dangers.

‘Original sin and transcendents. I don’t know what you want from me, but I’m going to live my life.’

It was not the time to be sentimental.

I immediately started preparing to leave for the Shaiya Desert.

**

A few days later.

Morn returned with jealousy.

“You’re going to fight the emperor?”

“yes.”

“Heh heh heh! great. I knew that a day like this would come someday, but...”

Because it was a gathering of people, the wrinkled eyes of Morne, who was using his respect for me, were wet.

“I’m sorry. It’s old, so it’s the main book.”

“no. More than that, I didn’t know that the godfather hated the emperor so much. If I had known you would be so happy, I would have gone a little faster.”

When I said it lightly, he smiled.

“It’s a little rude to say this, but my lord’s father, Kane Cromwell, was like a child to me. The one who betrayed Kane is the emperor.”

I already knew that Morne had a special thought for my father. No, in fact, I knew the vague fact that there was something connected with our family even before that, except for my father.

“I am so happy that I can get my revenge before I turn to dust.”

“I am very reassured that my godfather is helping me too.”

I turned my head and checked the rest of the members of the Shayah Desert Expedition.

Salem Maximin Evan Morn Luna.

In fact, there were many more, including Isabelle and Louise and Agatha Noah Lucia Dmitri, but they chose to stay for the estate.

“Leave this to me. Last time I was treated in vain, but it won’t happen again.”

Just then, Isabelle spoke to me as if to reassure me.

She was always sorry for me after that, as if the experience of being attacked by the Blue Knight of Death was still in her heart.

“I believe. every.”

If I didn’t trust them, I wouldn’t have entrusted my younger sister Amy and sleeping Vivian. And they were looking at me with an expression of great responsibility, as if they were aware of that.

“Shall we depart?”

“Gazuaaa!”

Luna shouted vigorously and went out of the mansion first.

The time has come to end the long bad relationship with the emperor.
