Chapter 582 – The Final Chapter. To Julian’s Future (10)
I went up to the sky for a moment and looked down at the ecliptic.
Even though it was on fire right up there with the phone.
All the troops of the Empire and the forces of the Demon King’s army were all gathered in the imperial city, but it was still alive.
However, beyond that, it was no different from the demonic Altern Mountains that the Demon King’s Army had crossed over.
‘It’s like the deep sea of despair created by Knoia…’
It was not surprising.
The demon descended on Guhwangdo.
And Knoia chose Duke Pedro as his agent and incarnation.
This place, where the apostle of chaos exists right in front of you, is a more chaotic space than inside Keiatic.
When suppressing the rebellion of Grius.
It was similar to the chaos connected to Knoia, its interior, into which I had entered.
‘Is there really only one moment left?’
Maybe if it weren’t for the miracle that my two wives and I created.
The world tree would have dried up as it was.
If even the source of life that cleansed the world from demon power had died, Island might have already perished before I had time to intervene.
However, the allied forces now gathered in the ecliptic were filled with hope as they saw the stems and leaves of the huge world tree that had grown here.
‘Hope.’
That’s exactly what I wanted from the people gathered here.
No, it was a sincere wish not only for them but also for all mankind in Island.
[The situation is not as good as I thought.]
And Siertia, who turned into a demonic dragon and became my horn.
That will, Erti, whispered.
Like she said
In fact, the power of regeneration created by my child.
The power of the World Tree, which is growing anew through that power, has not yet been completed.
Instead of fighting a new battle, he proposed the current festival.
It is to further increase the power of the new world tree that is now taking root in Island.
For the four-day festival.
I had to buy time.
Knoia was a much more blasphemous existence of destruction than I and the two main gods expected.
In fact, as of now, there was no sure odds that I would be able to make it through those four days.
[I saw it a few days ago. Over the long years, Knoia absorbed not only the old people’s resentment, but also the new people’s hatred and grudge.]
I answered Erti.
‘I could tell just from that short battle.’
When the world tree was healthy.
And even when Jedin and Unir’s power was enormous, they couldn’t completely annihilate Knoia.
I just tore him to pieces and sealed him in the outskirts of Island.
In the end, the guy was resurrected again as if it were now.
Even the witches mimic humans and demons.
It absorbed all the negative emotions of the new race and evolved into a new form.
That being is Pedro, the Apostle of Chaos, whom I met here.
So, I inherited the power of the two gods.
Even the current me, a demigod, was not enough.
[But do you still have the confidence to win?]
That was correct.
Like Erti who is synchronized with me, he read my will.
[In all the battles so far, you have always been inferior. However, I have always made a breakthrough and made a victory. And you are the one who gathered all the new human legions here in Esland.]
Erti was right.
I just calmly thought about superiority and inferiority.
There was not a single moment of despair.
[What I have to do is to create 100 even in the possibility of 0. As long as I, Julian von Reinhardt, represent everyone, there is no further retreat.]
The will I conveyed to Erti was the same as my heart.
It’s impossible if I’m alone.
But at the same time, there are things I can do as a country.
I am the one who will be the god of the new era chosen by the two main gods.
– A god creates divine power through his followers.
Unir has already told me the source of that divine power.
Even under Jedin and Unir, there were other gods besides the six gods and the demon princes.
The forgotten gods of the Old Empire era, even though they are gods, have disappeared.
Conversely, if you are someone who will be remembered by anyone.
Anyone has enough qualifications to rise to the position of God.
Needless to say, if you are the only hope of mankind.
‘I will be the center of the new race.’
I already got the answer from the source of that divine power.
Clearly, the odds of winning are small.
But it’s not over yet.
An apostle of chaos that even all the heroes of Island couldn’t handle.
There is a person who does not back down against Pedro and is fighting alone.
That person is me.
Now, in this four-day festival, my name will resound endlessly.
[It’s not just the ecliptic. Not only the Empire, but also the Demon Kingdom. And all over this land.]
Erti was right.
Lilia and I relayed in real time through all means of communication across Island.
– Light the sacred festival fire for four days.
The present festival was not prepared only in the ecliptic.
That I was holding out against the Demon God, I spread it throughout Island through all means of communication.
‘The roots of the World Tree extend everywhere. I can tell all mankind that I am holding on.’
So it’s not a festival of the same scale as now.
Everywhere in Island, there will be a festival calling my name.
Also, the power of the regenerated World Tree.
As long as mankind does not give up its power, the world tree will protect humans for four days.
‘I can feel it.’
That they praise the heroes of the new age.
I could feel that call now.
So, I sincerely prepared everything to become their master.
As long as they praise me.
As long as my name is called, I am on this front line to prevent destruction.
Because I will wield the Lion Heart Sword without ever losing.
At the same time as the king of Ireland, it was my firm will to rise to the position of god with the divine power they worship me.
I could feel my horn, that Siertia, burning with a new fire.
[Julian. You have reached another stage of the Lion Heart Sword.]
Like Erti said.
A lion heart sword as a master for all those who praise my name.
At the same time, it is the final stage for me, who has transcended the demigod and entered the realm of a true god.
I intended to create a new sun in the old ecliptic, and extinguish Knoia with that sacred fire.
‘Then let’s go.’
It seems that the Demonic Beasts are also taken aback by the abnormal phenomena that are occurring in various parts of the continent due to the regeneration of the World Tree.
For they held back the Legion for a while.
I also had time to catch my breath.
After descending to the ground, I headed towards the lovers’ banquet hall that had already been built.
***
With that determination, I entered the banquet hall.
There, even the servants who had finished preparing for the banquet all retreated after politely greeting them.
“Oh! You are here! Welcome all of you! The man who will be our husband! Julian von Reinhardt has arrived!”
And it was Lilia who greeted me on behalf of everyone gathered there.
“I will serve the young master.”
As long as all the users went out at the same time.
Eirin immediately followed me.
‘For a moment. I’m sure Lilia… She said she’s going to be everybody’s husband.’
Her conscience pricked her conscience a little.
My lovers who represented the 6 groups of the Pantheon.
They already knew that I was a demon dragon.
That’s why it’s so high that sexual desire and energy are incomparable to ordinary men.
He even knew that through relationships with so many beautiful women, he could keep his mind clear.
Also, women who have had a relationship even once are incorporated into the harem, making it impossible for any man to surpass them.
“…”
I sneaked a glance at one of the attendees gathered here.
She is Ustina.
As she was a great old dragon, there was no way she was ignorant of the demonic dragon’s habits.
However, it is unprecedented in the history of the Demon Kingdom for a leader who represents a great red dragon like her to become a member of a demon dragon’s harem.
But Ustina remained silent and did not leave her seat.
‘Right. As expected… This is my destiny.’
Her pride is high, and she dares to be counted among the five strongest people on earth.
Come into my harem, accept me as your future husband.
I saw all the members gathered here.
Six types of lovers, including Lilia and Eirin.
And Cecilia’s older sister, Tricia. Ustina and Remiella, who are the same demon.
Also, the knights of the midnight sun, Yuriel and Charlotte, were also with them.
These 11 aren’t all of the women I’ve had relationships with.
But now, the fact that all of them can have a place at the forefront of this holy war.
However, it was proof that it was not just the reason through affection with me.
‘Everyone gathered here are the people who will become the talented people of the new era.’
That’s why I also agreed with Lilia’s words to gather all the harem members.
Jedin and Yunir.
I will become a new god following the gods.
Therefore, those who have gathered here are the first priests and future apostles who will follow my will.
By doing so, they and I will form an eternal bond.
“Thank you all for gathering here. I’m sure there are people who are surprised to learn that I’m a demon dragon.”
“Oh no!”
“No!”
And Uriel and Charlotte, who only learned my identity a while ago, hurriedly answered.
I gathered everyone around Lilia and Eirin.
“The reason we are all together right now is because, like Lillia said, there are things that only you who have a relationship with me can do.”
At those words, Lilia and Eirin nodded.
Lillia continued my words.
“Regeneration of the complete world tree. This very spot will be the origin!”
