174. End of the World (3)
I sheathed my sword.
Bifrost’s vibration has already stopped. The black flames surrounding the blade had also disappeared.
I opened my eyes wide and looked ahead.
The collapsed palace was back to its original state as if it had never happened.
The surface of the table was the same. Even the blond young man of the highest rank, the surrounding head of households, the leaders of the different races, the religious leaders, and even Freea in the corner.
‘The front and back are correct.’
But there are unanswered questions.
The sight I just saw cannot explain it.
Above all, my senses, which I had built up over and over the line of fire, were fiercely ringing the alarm bell. You should have been hit with the water quite a bit. It can’t be this peaceful.
Chijik. tooth support.
The noise that was blocking my view dissipated.
I sat down once again in an empty chair at the table.
“I don’t accept this ending!”
Let’s see what’s going on...
Fria stands up and speaks with enthusiasm.
“Let’s all enjoy dinner together and finish it here? Funny sound! Our warriors are still bleeding outside!”
“So... what are you going to do? Her Highness the Princess.”
Hmm. is this part
It doesn’t seem to have changed much.
That’s it for now.
With my hands on the table, I listened to the conversation that followed.
The flow of the argument is not different from what we just saw. Freea is furious, and the female mage and the old knight stop her. He said that there was no other way, so he had to accept it. And Fria speaks again.
“There’s one... way left.”
Freea’s eyes turned to the saintess.
“Saint, hasn’t the goddess’ oracle come down? I heard that there is an important clue to save the continent. But why are you keeping it a secret?”
I looked at the saintess on the left side of the table.
A young girl wearing a pure white robe with the church’s pattern and a light purple cape.
There is a calmness in her expression that does not match her appearance.
The subsequent flow was similar.
The knight objected, saying that the saintess could not hide the oracle, and Freea gritted her teeth and said.
“I’m not mistaken. I’ve heard clearly. The Goddess said she’d give us one chance... a chance to start all over again.”
“Your Highness, what are you talking about?”
“It’s going back in time. Back a few years.”
“Turn back time.”
“If we go back then, the outcome might be different. Isn’t it unfortunate to sit down like this? You mean to end it without knowing anything, not even knowing the identity of the enemy? I don’t understand. If there is a way even with a very low probability, shouldn’t we try .”
“Is that true?”
“The goddess gave such an oracle... that’s right.”
“Why did you hide it?”
“It’s...”
Is it from here?
I took a deep breath.
“Pria.”
However, it was not the saintess who spoke next, but the young man in the upper seat.
Freea glared at the young man.
“Your brother didn’t know either, did you?”
“I knew it. I knew it.”
“Then why...!”
“Do you know what to give up?”
also.
A different development emerged.
“If I could truly save it, if I could save our empire and our continent, would I have hesitated? Answer me. Did I... look that ridiculous?”
“but!”
“It’s true that the oracle came down. I received an offer to return time.”
The young man crumpled his sculptural face.
“For one chance, can you push all life on the continent into the pit of hell?”
“What do you mean?”
“Your Highness, there is a price.”
The saintess shook her head.
“Our Goddess is not a perfect Creator. To perform miracles, such tributes and restrictions are required.”
“...”
“I saw.”
The saintess bit her lip.
“To become someone’s plaything, to see us suffering forever, unable to live or die. The intact continent will be torn apart, and the past and future will lose their meaning. It’s just enslavement.”
The young man grinned.
The young man looked over at Freea’s tear-stained face and wrapped her arms around her.
“If I hadn’t been in this position, I would have felt the same way as you. Actually, I don’t care about pride. I’d sell my soul to the devil if I could save it, if I could get the chance. But I can’t. I can’t. Understand. will you give me?”
“...yes.”
The young man looked around with a playful expression and whispered in Freea’s ear when he confirmed that no one was there.
“By any chance, if the anger doesn’t go away until the end... it’s okay to accept the offer.”
“yes?”
“I always support you.”
“What are you saying...!”
“Your Highness, I have something to report.”
“Come soon.”
The young man smiled at Freea, who was standing bewildered, and followed the adjutant.
Left alone, Freea looked at the young man’s back with a bewildered face.
‘It’s not long.’
The vibrations in the palace are intensifying.
The door leading to the outside shook and rattled.
A fierce end after a final struggle. It was a dramatic episode that often appears in movies.
I sat down and waited for the banquet to end.
‘He’s more suited to the main character.’
If that young man had been the main NPC in Taoneer, it would have been much easier.
I glanced over at Freea, not complaining. Freea was still sobbing with tears hanging from her golden eyes.
‘I sold it. witch. betrayer.’
I recalled the various accusations and curses that had been spat upon Freea.
Looking at the current situation, it doesn’t seem like they sold it. The majestic attitude of the first time to Fria is nowhere to be found. Now, only the image of a weak girl remained in that guy. It seemed that he had already given up.
‘If you’re a real hero.’
I looked at the young man.
While carrying out her mission, she listened casually to Freea. He is the second heir to the throne, and there is a separate legitimate heir. I guess that’s the guy.
“Your Highness the Princess.”
“Stop it. Now I won’t even mention the oracle of the goddess.”
Some people went to see Freea, but Freea answered dumbfounded and kept her mouth shut.
Freea, too, was fixing the blade, perhaps intending to follow the young man.
And the time has come.
The young man in armor Standing in the center of this red carpet,
surrounded by a chaotic mix of different races and genders, with eyes shining brightly,
the young man drew his sword with cold eyes.
“This is our last battle. Let’s show the end that we are not ashamed of.”
No one opened their mouths.
They just raised their weapons.
Freea was also among them.
“Thank you for your patience,”
the young man whispered to Freea.
Freea closed her eyes without saying a word
. !Thump!Thump!
The silver gates of the palace began to shake.
Stone chips and splinters of wood splattered and hollowed out all over the door.
The young man raised his sword.
“This is our final battle!”
“Oohhh!
” All Taonian troops! Stone...”
Before the young man stretched out his sword.
Boom!
The goddess statue behind the throne was smashed out of nowhere.
A shadow appeared from the thick dust.
I sighed. I
guess so.
If it ends here.
Here If it had been the end, the game would not have started.
I wouldn’t have fallen into this world and had to go through all sorts of hardships.
“Assault.”
A gloomy voice spread throughout the palace. A
muddy and terrifying tone, as if scratching the chest from the inside.
This voice I had heard of it,
and it was still deeply etched in my mind.
“Whoever wants it?
