Chapter 572 – 164. Eirin and Lilia’s Sincerity. And What About the First Wife? (3)
“This…?”
Lillia was also startled and hurriedly raised her hand above her head.
She was not mistaken.
The crown of the World Tree was clearly present on her head.
‘Nonsense. The crown of the world tree is surely…’
Only my first wife.
And a mark made only for the mother of the chosen child to regenerate the World Tree.
So it was impossible for both of them to summon the crown.
– No, it is possible.
But at that moment, I felt the will of the world tree coming from the obelisk.
– You have chosen both of them to be your first wives.
With that said, I understood the situation to some extent.
‘Couldn’t it be my will… That neither of them wanted to give up.’
Eirin and Lilia.
It means that the heart that really wants those two people was equal.
– Workplace that would have been impossible if the order was set. But if something actually becomes possible, the world calls it a miracle.
I sympathized with the words of the world tree’s will.
It was not the time to be idly by.
I gave both Eirin and Lilia my hand.
Like a lady holding her partner’s hand at a ball.
Eirin and Lilia both smiled with emotion and held my hand.
I hugged both of them tightly at the same time.
“Thank you for conceiving my child.”
Eirin and Lilia both had tears in their eyes at those words.
More than anyone else, those two would have worried the most.
Worst of all, there is a case where no one is chosen.
It was not easy for me, who possessed Reinhardt’s blood, to have a child while being half-body.
“Really… I’m glad…”
“Good thing. In this way, both of them have Yulian-sama’s child…”
I ran my finger over the eyes of the two who soon started to shed tears.
Then, he asked the will of the world tree.
“Both of them are now officially my wives. Then the fact that there are two children of rebirth means…”
At those words, the obelisk resonated.
Again, the will of the obelisk began to flow into my head.
– That is the child of heaven and earth.
At that moment, the scenery around him changed.
Eirin and Lilia were surprised, but they were flying in the sky without falling to the ground with me.
“Sky and…”
“A child of the earth?”
The two also listened to the words of the obelisk’s will.
And soon, the party flew over a huge wall.
All three of them looked down.
A place much more prosperous than the imperial capital Teria.
It was an unfamiliar place full of buildings of a style I had never seen before.
“This place can’t be…”
“Is it the Old Empire?”
But it wasn’t like the old empire.
The party had seen the scene of the fall of the ancient empire together.
So, it was full of completely new looks compared to the buildings of the old empire.
And the people gathered under it were full, as if a ceremony was in progress.
[God bless all the people of the empire gathered here today!]
I am referring to the word God bless.
There was no doubt that it was some kind of religious ceremony.
Perhaps the leader of this place.
Even that, someone who seemed to be full of dignity and power to the point of being called the emperor was leading the ceremony with a sword.
[And the name… The great Julian, Julian von Reinhardt! Under the holy name of God! And with the name of the goddess ***!]
The moment I heard those words, Eirin and Lilia met my eyes.
“The scene that is unfolding over there can’t be…”
“Is this the distant future?”
Obviously my name was being called the name of God by those people.
And the person who looked like the emperor was, of course, the first person I saw.
I found a familiar pattern on the flags erected around the emperor.
‘The pattern of the lion…’
At the same time, I remembered that the emperor had mentioned not only my name, but also the name of the goddess.
That was the moment.
The scenery around them changed again, and the three of them witnessed numerous scenes, even though it was a short moment.
And in those scenes.
I was able to understand the meaning of the world tree’s will as a child of heaven and earth.
“I see, me and Lilia…”
“Me and Eirin…”
They seem to have noticed too.
The World Tree spoke through its will.
– It is not necessarily a future that will come true. No, maybe it’s an impossible future. However…
I saw Eirin and Lilia at that moment.
The three created a new miracle with their hearts toward each other.
Originally, there should be only one child to regenerate, but now there are two.
The driving force that will continue to lead the future in the distant future when Knoia has disappeared.
That was the meaning of the sky and the earth that the World Tree spoke of.
‘Sky. That’s me in the distant future who will one day replace Jedin and Yunir as the god of a new era…’
I will live as a god. The future partner and goddess is Heaven’s wife.
She is Erin.
And the heavenly child born between Eirin and I will become a new god in the distant future and protect Island and the World Tree.
And the miracle that the three of them created together.
The child of another play, the child of the earth.
The child of Lilia, the wife of the land, is a special existence that inherits the blood of Reinhardt and Asterisk.
She was my successor who would carry on that special and great lineage on earth.
Just like Jedin and Unir did.
Even a god cannot manifest all his power on earth.
Just as incarnations and saints exist, gods and humans are living beings living in different worlds.
‘That’s why it is necessary for humans and gods to work together to achieve that balance.’
An era in which humans reject humans and insult even gods.
If such an era comes back, the present end can repeat itself at any time.
My child, which the two of them will give birth to, will represent God and human beings, respectively, and open a new era completely different from the past.
All three returned to their original location.
The World Tree told us everything.
– As long as you have two children, you have ignited a new spark of hope. Make the future you saw a reality. I believe in you.
Goo Goo Goo Goo-
The world water oscillated.
The world tree was already dying.
Giving the three of them a week’s time must have consumed what little energy they had left.
“That will. I will not forget and continue.”
Eirin and Lilia also nodded.
Their bodies were enveloped in blue light.
The power they create is primordial mana.
That divine power will prevent the complete collapse of the World Tree.
‘It’s clear what I have to do.’
Now as a father.
And as the master of this world.
To punish Knonoia.
After a while, the three of them got out of the depths of the World Tree together.
***
The Demon King’s garrison.
In the garrison prepared in one place in the primeval forest, a meeting was going on without an end of fire all night.
“It’s already been a week since His Majesty left. Meanwhile, the Altern Mountains…”
Commander’s barracks for that garrison.
There, the top commanders of the Demon King’s army were sighing with dark expressions.
“I heard the report. It is said that the magic power was so strong that even the beginning of the Altern Mountains could not be entered. It is already a demonic realm that is more terrible than hell.”
“Summarizing the reported information… It has already become a dangerous place, surpassing even the permafrost of the deadliest Keiatic Gate.”
“You mean our Demon King’s army can really pass through such a demonic realm?”
The general of the Demon King’s Army.
White Dragon Aitekkia’s already pale face became even whiter at the report.
‘Dear His Majesty… I’m sure nothing happened.’
The owner of the Demon Kingdom, Demon King Julian von Reinhardt.
Heading to the deepest part of the primeval forest, he told me to wait until he returned.
While saying that he would definitely find a way to cross the Altern Mountains.
But the situation has reached an extreme.
Beyond the Altern Mountains.
Although the situation of the old imperial map of the Ramir Empire is unknown right now.
The highest-ranking priests of the Demon Kingdom with the Demon King’s army were warning one after another.
– Knoia’s power is about to awaken. There is no time!
Although Aitecia was not a priest.
I could feel that even this sacred primeval forest was full of terrible demon power.
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a clear sky.
The dark clouds created by the magic spirit were scattering the ominous light day and night.
‘As expected… The future of our homeland, Agriel…’
Not only the future of the Demon Kingdom, but even the future of Island cannot be seen.
Even this place, where Guhwangdo is still far away, is full of signs of the end.
As mortals, they did not even think that they would be able to defeat Knoia, the being of chaos and the demon.
‘Even crossing the Altern Mountains, let alone the Old Emperor’s Island…’
What if something had happened to Yulian who had gone deep into the primeval forest?
Aitecia had to choose.
It is not possible to have a large number of troops stand by in the primeval forest.
The two terrible apostles disappeared from the Demon Kingdom thanks to Yulian’s active efforts.
Still, there are plenty of demons everywhere.
‘Even so, I can’t defeat the troops like this because I’m saving the demons.’
In the end, if Knoia can’t be defeated, the end is certain, so it’s a real dilemma.
Despite becoming an old dragon, Aitekia’s forehead, which still looked like a young man in his twenties, was full of wrinkles.
But it was just that moment.
“I made you wait a long time. All preparations are complete.”
The barracks door opened.
And a man entered through the door.
“As the emperor of Agriel, I command you. I will cross the Altern Mountains from now on!”
At that moment, the commanders all got down on one knee and spoke to their master.
“I will obey your great majesty’s command!”
Demon King Julian von Reinhardt.
He returned to his legion.
