Episode 144. Success ⑴ The way back to Eltainer Imperial Castle.
Kriesha was somehow embarrassed and could not speak. Yuma, who was riding on his back, kept making a serious face, which made him even more embarrassed.
•■一Hey you bastard!
Why did he say such a thing…
‘Even if you look at your status as an existence, if you’re a demon from the underworld, you can’t be considered lower than me. But I must have been close to humans.’
Aside from that embarrassment, Kriesha was also worried about the fact that Yuma had descended from the island.
Because of the energy of the void, it was not right near the island, but a dragon the size of Kriesha couldn’t help but notice Yuma’s arrival.
‘Soluto seems to be completely dead. How did this child come?’
In the meantime, Yuma spoke first, “Krisya-sama.”
[Why are you calling me?]
“I’m sorry.”
[Okay. I was frivolous too.
Did you end well with my exiled people?]
“I couldn’t. His soul was so suddenly drawn into the void that it perished. The only thing I could put an end to was his body.”
[That’s how it happened…]
Chrisa replied in a bitter tone.
[What happened to Advent?]
“After meeting the manifest Hwa for a while, Advent began without my knowledge. It seems to have happened when the unique aura and the power of Akyla were combined…
I heard a more important story.”
[Important story?]
Yuma began to elaborate on the conversation he had with Hwa.
Krissa responded in disbelief several times while listening.
But it wasn’t because I really didn’t believe it, it was because it was so shocking.
[Resol… is nothing more than Haider’s dream. How should I accept this?]
Kriesha once
called Resol a ‘guardian’.
Also, Amanzo also called Rizol the guardian of royalties, and most of the other transcendental beings knew that.
In fact, Rizol has been keeping the demons in check to delay the second coming of Hwa. It was a recent problem that his behavior had become strange, and the dragons were actually not quite convinced of the reason.
It was fortunate that Yuma, a new guardian who could replace Rizol, had just appeared.
Perhaps, without Yuma, the current dragons would have lost their way and were at a loss. It was all about whether I should hit Resol or wait and see.
[I thought that because the guardian named Risol was also human, Hwara lost her mind in fear of the absolute end. But he wasn’t even a human in the first place… Now things were destroyed.]
“Yes, the power he used was not light, but God’s tree.”
[Then what about Galos? Didn’t that demon king of the underworld form an alliance with Risol with Haider on his back?]
“Perhaps Galos didn’t know about this fact. Haider probably doesn’t know that Risol is his dream either. It must have been caught.”
Galos and the like would not have been able to hear such information directly from Hwa. It was clear that the existence of the demon king of the underworld would perish even if he faced Hwa, who had manifested for a while.
[Well, if Hwa returns, Galos will be finished anyway, so he could have visited Rizol. Lil’s reincarnation belongs to him anyway, so it won’t be bad for Rizol to get to know him.]
“Yes, probably.”
The two paused for a moment, gathering their thoughts.
[The history of the void… that’s right. From the moment the tree of gods was damaged, the second coming of that reverse god was predicted. Since then, everything alive has been chasing lies and illusions.] “There is not much time.”
[okay. Perhaps Hwa is no longer another apostle or an apostle. In any case, it will appear once again through the one closest to the void.]
The Witch Mage Shiram.
There was no other target for Hwa to manifest next.
Of course, there was the existence of Ryoka Rollmandi, who became a black magician under the name of ‘Matram’, but Yuma did not know about it yet, and Matram was not strong enough to become Hwa’s descendant.
[I need to trace his location again.]
“Yes, first of all, we need to find beings worthy of being called apostles and absorb them into Amulla to delay the coming of Hwa. And with Secmeira… I’ll have to negotiate.”
[You mean the demon of the summer?]
“That’s right. As long as the war continues, the second coming of Hwa will inevitably get closer and closer. Sekmeira seems to believe in the new world that Risol
said
…
[Yuma, do you believe everything Hwa said?]
Kriesha asked calmly.
“Well, it’s hard to explain, but he doesn’t lie.
No, in the first place, it seems impossible to ‘lie’ itself.”
[How can you be sure of that?]
“That’s a problem beyond my awareness. I also faced him after descending as a demon, but he is different from me and other gods. It’s closer to nature than to God, and nature doesn’t lie.”
[..If that’s the case, wouldn’t it be a meaningless action to fight against Hwa from the moment you were convinced that the new world didn’t exist
? It was a better situation.
If there exists another world out of Hwa’s power and Rizol holds the key to it… taking
that key and moving those who are currently on Yuma’s side will be ‘lucky’ for a better future. so you can see it too.
Chrissa sighed as she continued the explanation.
However, Yuma just shook his head at Kriesha’s story.
“No, as Hwa said, there is no new world. Even if there were, it wouldn’t be a safe world or a paradise. We won’t be able to go there.”
The New World does not exist.
Yuma had a strangely strong conviction in the matter.
It came as a perfect truth, like the proposition that we cannot breathe without air.
From his point of view, to say that a new world exists is tantamount to saying that there is no god even after meeting a god.
[ha! I mean, what should I do? So many lives.] Kriesha, who had just entered land, looked down at the ground full of green and said.
[So many colors, so many beings… disappearing into the void. In the end , do
we have no choice but to watch?]
[What is it?]
“Even with the full power of the Demon God of the Underworld, Hwwa cannot be damaged… but if Haider regains his name, there may be a possibility.”
[Possibility.]
“I’ll organize it and tell you.”
tree of the gods.
It was a tree that existed before Geil and Hwa, and when it was damaged, Hwa began to flow into the world.
And the power of the tree of gods is also evident in Hwa.
‘Whoa, he didn’t even notice that I ate the fruit from the tree of God and returned.’
Had he known, Hwa would have used the expression ‘forcibly turned back time’ even to himself.
However, what Hwa said was ‘a dream in which he wanted to believe that he was a human even while forcibly turning back the time of eons’ was only included in Risol.
Turning back eons of time was by no means a metaphor.
‘Irrespective of time. It’s what the Xilites and Alpenters often said when talking about Lisol. I see the true meaning of that word… He had the ability to turn back time.’
Hwa also said this.
-The man whose name was erased obtained the tree of God, but using that power was also the role of a dream after all.
It was understandable if the magical powers and transcendental magic close to that of Risol were also the result of using the power derived from the tree of God.
However, using Haider’s real name.
Wielding the power that originally Haider should have used.
Even if Heider lived the long life he should have lived in his name instead…
Dreams were just dreams after all. Even if it looks the same as the real thing, a fake is just a fake, and that’s why Resol was moving for a completely different purpose from Haider.
If the ‘real Resol’ Haider had been using the power obtained from the God Tree, he would only be reincarnating the world with his lover.
And fakes are always valid only until the real ones appear. ‘
It would have turned back time whenever it wanted
…until I ate the fruit from the tree of God and returned .’
Perhaps to delay the future of Hwah’s second coming.
Or, in some way, to reverse the history that flows against them.
‘But from the moment I appeared after eating the real fruit, I couldn’t turn back time. Now that the real one has appeared, a fake power has disappeared.’
It felt like a jumbled puzzle being put together one by one.
As Hwa said, Risol was the existence most similar to the void, and he was the one who made Hwa ‘flow the most’.
It is a fate that has no choice but to gradually lose its existence whenever the truth that it is not real and that it is only a fake is revealed.
“Miss Krisha.”
[Is it organized?]
“Yes.”
Yuma told Chrisa what she had just thought. However, he did not say that he ate the ‘fruit of return’.
Even without it, he could explain that if Haider regains his name, the ‘dream’ of Resol will inevitably cease to exist.
[So, what you meant is to free Haider from the bondage of Hwa… get rid of Rizol and use the God Tree he possesses to fight Hwa.] “Yes
. Wasn’t the reason why Heider was cursed in the first place because the power of the God Tree couldn’t handle it?”
[Um.]
“Also, since Rizol is ‘the closest thing to the Void’… if he disappears, it will be affected by the flow. From Hwa’s point of view, the biggest driving force is disappearing.”
[That’s a plausible story. But don’t you know that Lil’s reincarnation is necessary to get Haider’s name back? You said before that you couldn’t offer Mary to Lord.]
“That’s right. You said that the peace you get by bringing a girl you know nothing about is meaningless. And I still feel the same way. In the first place, Maria is currently being hidden by Rizol.”
[Then, how are you going to get Haider’s name back?]
Yuma smiled warmly.
“I am a demon from the underworld.”
[…Know. I felt out of breath when I descended earlier.]
“And Haider is in the abyss of the underworld.”
Krisha’s eyes widened.
“Why don’t you take Risol into the abyss of the underworld and face Haider? That bastard will… disappear when he comes face to face with the real thing.”
