66 The Eve (2)
“ Wow!”
One by one, the warriors, who barely came to their senses at Shion’s words, began to stand up.
Their eyes were filled with pain and astonishment at the current situation.
Yes, they already knew how strong that emperor was right now in front of them.
Because I saw with my own two eyes the scene of annihilating the Grand Duke of Oman at the border and overwhelmingly crushing Wolbyeokcheon, which obtained the body of the first Beast King in the Suin Sea.
However, the power of Emperor Zion he actually faced was more than that.
It wasn’t just the apparent power.
The detail and accuracy of each movement and movement were far above them.
‘ I don’t think I’m human.’
Who else would make them, who already have the world’s highest level of armed forces, think like this within seconds of the start of a battle?
Before the warriors who thought so were able to correct their posture,
“ Looks like you still have time to think about something else.”
Whoops!
Shion, who appeared right in front of Lane, raised a fist wrapped in jet-black energy as if it had absorbed all the darkness around him.
Lane managed to avoid him by turning around.
Quad Duck!!
Shion’s fists lightly brushed her cheek and collapsed the entire space behind her.
If hit correctly, a blow that would take your breath away in an instant.
Feeling the blood seeping from his brushed cheeks, as Lane tries to widen the distance behind him, tuquaang!
Shion’s opposite fist fired much faster than that, and the second skirmish began.
Damn it! blah blah blah blah!
A bundle of thunderbolts powerful enough to color the entire sky blue fell to the ground.
The giant’s eyes flashed and flickered between the gravity distorted by divine power and magic.
A foreign darkness that covers and encroaches on everything.
It was a fierce workshop from afar, but soo hard!
“ Big, big!”
In fact, it wasn’t at all.
only one.
Because only one Zion was pushing the four of us, unable to breathe properly.
‘ Die.’
The alarm bells frantically in the minds of Lane and others.
‘ I really die.’
Even though the shock was accumulating on the body along with the growing wounds, Emperor Zion’s attack was getting faster and stronger.
As if they were really trying to kill themselves right here and now.
Those who were attacked by him were also changing desperately beyond desperate.
Good luck!
He forcibly twisted the muscles of his moving arm and swung his fist.
Squeezing out the mana that has already run out, he proceeds with the magic trick.
How long have you been struggling to live like that?
‘… … what?’
At some point, a strange sensation began to cover Lane’s body.
It’s like looking down at your body through a third person’s point of view.
Actually, from when on Lane’s spear was moving on its own regardless of her will.
With him, the currents covering the spear were getting fainter, but the spear’s power was increasing and its trajectory was becoming more sophisticated.
and,
Damn it!
A seed that slowly begins to crack from the inside of such a lane.
‘ Ah… … !’
The flow of battle begins to change with the spirit of Lane, who quickly enters a trance.

My breath that had been clogged up opens, and my dizzy hands and feet come little by little.
The light of hope that rises from the eyes of the party with Seunggi gradually leaning towards them.
‘ Maybe like this… … !’
Then the word victory slowly came to their minds.
“ Don’t make it this far.”
With the low voice coming out of Zion’s mouth,
Whoops!
The group’s sights were all dyed in darkness.
When that view comes back,
Tuquaah!
“ Wow!”
All four bodies, including Lane, had been thrown to the ground.
‘ So far… … Didn’t you use your original strength?’
As a result, the eyes of the party who realized that fact fluctuated,
“ To remember the feeling of the present moment.”
Whether he knew the shock or not, looking at them with the same indifferent eyes as the first time, Shion turned around.
“ Then there will be good results sooner or later.”
After saying those words, Zion moved slowly.
The hero and party stared blankly at Zion’s back until it completely disappeared.
* * *
At the same time, the Bamel family, one of the great aristocratic families existing in the capital.
Originally, the mansion of the Bamel family, where most of them should sleep and be quiet, is Qaang!
It was covered with a great commotion.
Kiaah!
“ Stop it! Stop it!”
The monsters that came and the knights who stopped them.
attack.
Now the Bamel family was being attacked by demons.
and,
“ Heh heh, heh heh!”
A huge garden in the heart of such Bamel Street.
There, Priscilla, with her wavy scarlet hair fluttering, was staring at the demons surrounding her, breathing heavily.
‘ By the way… … .’
How did this happen?
As if she was the target from the beginning.
As soon as the demons that attacked the Bamel family found Priscilla, they threw everything else behind them and started chasing them, and she was eventually surrounded by Priscilla, and she was holding on with all their might.
However,
‘ Now is the limit.’

Mana had already run out, and his body was concentrated to the point that he couldn’t take a single step properly.
Also, the breath that fills up to the tip of the chin.
If I hadn’t put in enough training and effort to vomit blood according to the words of Emperor Zion in the past, I would have been caught by those demons or died sooner or later.
‘ Did he really know that this was going to happen?’
When Priscilla took a breath with that thought,
“ Kick! Why don’t you stop rebelling and get caught?”
Among the monsters surrounding her, a demon who looked like a goblin smiled meanly and opened her mouth.
“ We have no intention of killing you. I’m just trying to help you find your original use.”
Its original use was the magic blood possessed by Priscilla.
At a past world conference, when Shion deployed a huge red circle, the demon found out that Priscilla possessed the highest level of demon blood, and tried to seize her using the remaining forces in the Empire.
This was the stage before Priscilla, who appeared in the chronicles, became the ‘Princess of Misfortune’.
“ Would you like that one better? so… … .”
“ Would you please shut your mouth?”
Before the demons could finish speaking, Priscilla opened her mouth with cold eyes.
“ Every time you open your mouth, the disgusting odor that comes out of you is like you’re going to vomit.”
She grabs her nose with her finger as if she really is.
“ If you don’t follow along, there’s nothing you can do.”
He placed his palm in front of him and blown his breath, and the demon opened his mouth with a hardened face.
“ The only choice is to cut off the limbs and drag them away.”
Paang!
With those words, all the demons surrounding Priscilla were shot forward at the same time.
Demons who reached her front in an instant and immediately wielded their long nails.
Of course, Priscilla, who had a hard time standing still, had no strength left to stop their attack.
‘ Like this… … .’
It was the moment when Priscilla felt the end of herself while watching the attacks of the demons rapidly expanding.
Cyrillic!
With the sound of a rusty iron door being opened in her ear, quad-d-d-d-duk!
The running demons literally started torn apart.
Blood gushing out into the air.
In front of Priscilla, who looked at the incomprehensible sight with blank eyes, it was the fault.
A woman with red eyes sat down.
Wasn’t that the end of it?
Suga Gaga!
After that, masked swordsmen who appeared from around them begin to indiscriminately slaughter the monsters in the Bamel Street.
“ No limbs have fallen… … You seem to be in good spirits, and this is enough, right?”
Next, Liusina, the woman who looked around Priscilla’s body, nodded and opened her mouth.
“ How do you get here… … .”
“ However, the master sent it.”
Of course, there was only one being in the world that she called the master.
The Emperor of Agnes, Zion Agnes.
“ You said there was going to be a raid today, and you told me and Lucas over there to go?”
“ Ah… … !”
Priscilla’s face, who had a surprised expression for a moment at Riusina’s words, began to feel a little relieved.
‘ Your Majesty, you… … .’
A small smile appeared on her lips as she looked at the Imperial Castle where Zion was immediately.
* * *
‘ It must have been this.’
The night gradually passed midnight and dawn came.
Sion went to Chimseonggung, where he still resides, and remembered the battle just before.
The rest of the party except for the hero Claire.
Although they did not achieve their final awakening in the battle against Orogirichi, they were well prepared for the many battles in the past.
All they needed was an opportunity to break down the wall.
Therefore, Zion planted an opportunity by pushing them to the point of death, and as a result, the seeds of their awakening were cracked.
Now, until the final awakening, it must be just a matter of time.
‘ Originally, it would be impossible to do that with one battle, but… … .’
All other preparations were already in place, and this was possible because the size of the potential of the hero and party was enormous.
at that time,
“ Are you coming now?”
Someone greeted Shion as she entered the outer gate of Chimseonggung Palace.
It was Claire who was looking at the moon in the garden of Chimseonggung.
“ Did your trip go well?”
She asked as if she already knew what Zion was doing.
“ Roughly.”
“ Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty.”
Claire knew.
Emperor Zion said it was nothing, but how great and difficult what he has done now.
She bowed her head to thank him,
“ You know what? The reason the moon in the sky is red is because the world is nearing destruction.”
He turned his head toward the moon he was looking at again and opened his mouth.
“ So the moon I saw before the return was red as if it had been painted with bright red blood. But the moon I see now has a much lighter color than it was back then.”
And Claire knew that it was because of Zion next to her.
silence for a while.
“ Aren’t you anxious?”
A quiet question flowed from Claire’s mouth as she turned her gaze to Zion again.
“ I am carrying the fate of the world on His Majesty’s shoulders.”
The burden that the world could be destroyed if even one mistake was made.
In the past, she had been carrying it herself, so Claire was well aware of how great the burden is and how it drives people crazy.
It feels like the blood all over your body is drying up every day.
But the man next to him seemed so calm.
As if this was nothing.
“ Is there any reason to be anxious now?”
Shion smiled at the hero’s question and opened his mouth.
“ After all, the fate of the world has always been in my hands.”
Yes, from the time of unifying the entire world in the past and ascending to the throne.
The fate of the world was already in Zion’s own hands.
Therefore, the burden that Claire was talking about now was as natural as breathing to Shion.
In addition, it was not such a burden that captured Zion’s head now.
‘ It must have been much stronger than I had seen in my past dreams.’
look forward to it right away.
That expectation came from the Demon King.
When the Imperial Castle was attacked a few days ago, Shion could feel the shiver running down his spine even though he briefly looked through the abyss hole.
From the time of the Aeons of the past to the present.
Stronger and more ill-willed than any enemy he has ever faced.
Therefore, the emperor who swallowed up the world was looking forward to it.
The seeds that he sowed in the past.
How much will the seed grow to please yourself.
‘ I wish it was more than I thought.’
Thinking like that, Zion’s eyes were curved like a crescent moon in the sky.
And exactly three days later,
aa
Not with the border between the Empire and the Demonic Magic, but with a huge explosion that took place far beyond that.
Finally, the final war that will determine the fate of the world has begun.
