72 The Last Question (1)
end of the world.
the throne of the gods.
“ It has finally begun.”
There, the gods who had already known each other with Zion were watching the battle between Zion and the Demon King.
“ It’s a lot faster than I thought. Are you saying that he’s a guy who goes beyond common sense?”
At the murmur of Luminus, the god of light, Loki, the god of fire, looked at the screen with curious eyes and opened his mouth.
“ Who do you think will win?”
“ Of course it’s Orrelion. Are you unaware of the achievements he has made so far?”
This time, to the next question of Luminus, Archenidia, the god of nature, answered as if it was natural.
But contrary to the words, there was a faint light of concern in her eyes.
“ I know that, but the guy the emperor is dealing with is also a guy who goes beyond common sense. Because he has risen to the divine deity with his own power.”
The ascension of a mortal to the immortal deity was rare, but not entirely.
About once in a hundred thousand years.
But if that being was the Demon King, the story would be different.
Since the Demon King is destined to destroy the world from birth, he is endowed with powerful powers, but instead, it was almost impossible to rise to the Godhead, which had to be reached by transcending fate.
‘ It must be seen as an irregular.’
“ No, the Emperor will still win. We just need to prepare to pay the price of the contract after the battle is over.”
“ It’s the price of the contract… … .”
It was a moment when Luminus quietly muttered to Archenidia’s confident words.
aah!
Shion’s body in the screen bounced backwards.
* * *
“ Ahhh! These guys are going to pull out limbs and kill them!”
The surroundings of the anger that spit out a loud cry that resonated the entire battlefield began to go wild and distort like crazy.
The robe that covered the head of such anger had already come off.
And the face revealed in it was very ugly.
Distorted skin and unopened eyes, as if severely burned.
A nose with only nostrils and a mouth with no teeth.
Anger was well aware that his face was ugly, so he didn’t usually show it, but the reason he took off his hood was simple.
aah!
It was only then that I was able to use the ‘power of anger’ to the maximum.
A sense of shame that so many beings have seen their faces.
That shame was the driving force behind his anger, and he was amplifying his power like crazy.
As a result, the world around him instantly transforms into his realm.
“ Never let me get out of here!”
Could it have been that he could not fully bear the power of the infinitely rising rage?
The condition of the warriors and the party facing the Grand Duke of anger was not so good.
The wounds engraved all over the party’s whole body, just like when they dealt with the agent in the past.
But nonetheless, Claire and others’ eyes were shining.
Unlike then,
‘A little more.’
This time, the state of his anger was not good either.
Unlike when the first battle began, there were wounds that could not be healed all over the body in anger, and the expression was very urgent.
In fact, the reason his anger showed his face and used his power to the maximum was because of such an urgent situation.
Suga, go, go!
A warrior who rushes in, tearing apart the tens of thousands of spheres fired by his anger with his space-time sword.
Around her like that, the radiant light of will was adding to it like an explosion.
blah blah blah!
A shock wave that spreads throughout the battlefield with the ensuing clash of the two.
Before that shock wave disappears,
“ Tiran!”
“ It’s already triggered!”
As he reached the truth of the world, the magic of the great mage that even distorted some of the laws of the world was activated around his anger.
infinite zero.
Soo much
The space around the anger that falls beyond absolute zero, the lowest temperature that can be reached in reality.
As a result, even for a moment, the accident turned towards the frozen archduke,
splitting the continent.
Tuquaa
Turzan’s strongest blow exploded.
At the shock beyond imagination, the new type of anger bounced off at a speed that far exceeded the speed of sound.
Grip support support!
Lane’s thunderbolt, which fell from above him, pierced the archduke’s abdomen perfectly.
“ Gagging! uh, why! I… … !”
Anger pouring out a voice full of pain and doubt as if he did not understand the current situation in which victory is still not overturned even though his powers have been drawn to the maximum.
Obviously, he has a higher level of strength and rank, so why was he pushed back?
Wow!
“ Simple.”
A calm voice came out of Claire’s mouth, which appeared in front of such anger while cutting time.
“ Until now, we have fought countless battles with beings stronger than us.”
abbreviation.
Claire has accepted that she is weak, so she has learned how to defeat the strong as the weak through numerous battles.
And the results were now fully blooming in the battle against anger.
next,
“ Now it’s over.”
Suga Gaga!
The sword of the warrior who finished speaking ripped apart the body of anger.
* * *
godhead.
An immortal being who completely escapes from the cycle of reincarnation, which symbolizes mortality, and creates his own destiny.
It was quite accidental that a king ascended to such a deity.
A coincidence that occurred during the years of building infinite ties with the sole idea of defeating the emperor.
The king did not miss the chance, grabbed hold of it, and opened the way to the godhood at once.
But the king did not go down that road.
Because defeating the emperor was more important than that.
However,
– Emperor.
The king now regretted his decision.
-… … Wasn’t this the only
There was a deep sense of disappointment in the eyes of the demon king who looked in the direction in which Zion was thrown.
Yes, I honestly knew.
The fact that the emperor, who resided in a body other than his original body, completely regained the power of the past in just two years, is already an incredible feat.
But at the same time, the king was expecting.
if the emperor
If it’s Orrelion Khan Agnes, the Eternal Age that devoured the entire world in the past.
That he will show you something that far exceeds your expectations.
However, that hope had already vanished due to the recent workshop.
– It’s nonsense.
The demon king, who took a step forward with those words, disappeared from the spot, bounced so far as to appear as a dot, and appeared in front of Shion, who was imprisoned in the demon temple.
Whoa!
Then, the abyss gathers into the hands of despair that has been extended toward Zion.
Such an abyss is turned into a sword by ‘chaos’ and ‘change’, the qualities he acquired by transcending fate.
– I will take my life right away in respect for you.
With those words, he swung the sword that the Demon King had pulled out without hesitation.
It was the moment when such a sword of despair hit the wall right in front of Shion’s neck, who was bowing his head.
Click!
The sound of something opening in your ear.
with him,
Scratch!
The sword that was being swung and the hand of the Demon King holding the sword disappeared at once.
-… … ?
The moment when the demon king’s eyes were dyed with doubt at that incomprehensible scene,
“ I want to ask you something.”
Shion, who raised his head, horizontally drew out Iklaxia, which had only the handle held in his right hand.
“ Why do you think this is all I have?”
incomprehensible sight.
But the answer was revealed the next moment.
Tuhwa hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Because the darkness that soared like an explosion from the handle of Iclaxia, where the sword had disappeared, created a new sword.
In response, the Demon King poured out more powerful power than before and created a shield made of chaos, but Suga-ga-ga-gak!
The result was completely different.
A shield that is torn like a piece of paper as soon as it touches the sword of Zion.
In addition, Iklaxia, which was continuously swung, left a long sword on the Demon King’s body.
Whoops!
“ You know what?”
As if the attack was not the end, Shion, who appeared right in front of the Demon King, smiled as if he was close enough to hear the sound of his breathing.
“ I know that I never did my best when I dealt with you.”
Quad doddeuk!
With those words, Shion’s sword, which was swung beyond recognition, was once again lodged in the demon king’s body.
A transcendental explosion of black stars that occurs from the part where it is embedded.
” No, I’ve never done my best to anyone I’ve ever dealt with.”
Iklaxia, who had been fine, could be said to be the proof.
The Extinction Sword, created by processing a meteorite that fell from space, functions to amplify the Black Star, but there is a limit to accepting power at once.
Therefore, it can be said that after Shion rose to the 8th star, it was rather acting as a deterrent.
Now that the sword god of Iklaxia has disappeared and the darkness under the Black Star has been replaced by a new sword god.
It could be said that the conditions were perfect for Shion to use her powers perfectly.
– Whoa… … what!
Despair, which had shed a painful voice for the first time, responded by changing the entire body part where the sword of Zion was embedded into an empty space, but to no avail.
denial of power.
Quad Duck!
The sword of Zion, which denied such power itself, penetrates deeper and begins to gnaw away at the origin of the Demon King.
– Whoa!
The despair that screamed at the unimaginable agony transmitted from him exploded the chaos that had been built up in his body until now, barely pushing Zion away.
– Then the power… … Didn’t you show your power?
Then, the demon king murmured while looking at Zion with eyes in disbelief.
——————-!
Tens of millions of living abyss that stretched out from such a demon king are targeting Zion.
The moment such abyss is about to reach Zion’s whole body,
Whoops!
As if they did not exist from the beginning, all the abyss that had stretched out disappeared.
Not only that, but Sion reveals itself with Iklaxia, which is burning black in front of the Demon King, lifted above his head.
‘… … how!’
Recognizing such Zion, the eyes of despair tremble.
From the fact that his attack had just disappeared, to when Shion appeared right in front of him.
It was because he could not perceive anything even with his own senses who had already reached the Godhead.
And in fact, it was natural.
concept denial.
The negation of the greatest strength that can be done under the black castle that has reached the 8 castle.
By using such a denial of the concept, Sion denied ‘the time when she was pushed out due to the chaos of the abyss and the demon king that was just stretching out’, and as a result appeared in front of the demon king.
Damn it! Soo much
and the follow-up.
The eight black stars contained in each such sword strike tear apart the world itself, turning everything into nothing.
As a result, the Demon King is pushed back without even being able to properly counterattack.
His victory that existed in the early days of the workshop was nowhere to be found.
However,
– Ha ha… … hahahahahahahaha!
What came out of the demon king’s mouth was not a scream, but a madness.
– Emperor! it’s you You, who gave me so much despair, can’t be so easily defeated.
The eyes of despair were bent as if they were genuinely happy, even in a situation that seemed to run out of breath at any moment.
– Okay, now you don’t have to hesitate any longer.
Quad Duck!
With those words, the king, who smiled brighter than ever, plunged his hand into his chest.
That moment,
pounding!
A heartbeat echoing throughout the abyss.
At the same time,
——————-!
Everything has changed.
Atmosphere, space, time.
And to the flow of the world.
They all focus towards the Demon King and start to oscillate.
Infinitely amplified chaos and endlessly soaring power.
As a result, all the laws of the world are distorted, and the surrounding area begins to change into a new world.
at its center,
– Emperor.
The demon king ‘Despair’, who has become a completely different existence from a while ago, looks at Zion.
The path to reach the Godhead obtained by transcending bondage and fate.
The Demon King had just given up the road and the possibility of ascending to a higher place, and in return, he had obtained a higher rank and power.
The last move he prepared to face Eternal Eternals.
– Please don’t let me down.
Now, the king, who has become the god of this world, speaks like a declaration to Zion.
Dedede!
According to the king’s words, the whole world fluctuates and changes.
“… … .”
Shion looked at such a demon king with subdued eyes.
The power of the Demon King has grown so strong that it cannot even be compared with a while ago.
Quad Duck!
The power was so strong that even now he couldn’t guarantee victory, and because of that, his very existence was being crushed, but rather an arc was drawn on Sion’s lips.
Because now was the best time to use ‘it’.
The last of Kronos’ five questions.
All questions of Kronos are basically related to time.
Time fixed means the present.
Reproduction of time and seizing time mean the past.
So, what does the last remaining question really mean?
The answer was already decided from the beginning.
‘The future.’
Is the future of everything set?
An era of myths that existed in the distant past.
The last question posed to humans by Cronus, the god of time.
That moment.
At the same time as the last jewel left on Shion’s bracelet crumbled, tick!
The sound of the clock hand moving began to resound throughout the world.
