Chapter 590 – The Final Chapter. To Julian’s Future (18) – Completed
The Knights of Dawn have completed their entry into the Nine Emperor Roads.
The scenery of Nine Emperor Islands, where the sun was already setting, was more miserable than expected.
No, rather than saying it was miserable.
That place was no longer a city for humans, but a place for conceiving demonic beasts.
Periodically, the empire has been clearing out nests on the outskirts of the Nine Emperor Islands.
Beyond the current imperial capital Theria, the entirety of the former imperial capital, the largest city in the empire, was filled with nests.
And the magical soul power concentrated there.
It was stronger than the magical soul power of any previously existing Kiatic Gate.
‘Even knights of master level or higher cannot survive even 10 minutes. That place was the Nine Imperial Capital.’
But now, the 50,000 legions that went out with me were all standing on the land of the Nine Imperial Capitals.
Their bodies, dressed in armor, shone.
The energy of the World Tree, resembling the blue light of dawn, protected their bodies.
The will of humanity.
And my will as the god of dawn representing humanity.
The roots of the world tree also reached the Nine Imperial Paths of the Demonic Classics.
That purifying effect acts on all knights.
‘The preliminary work was the Demon Dragon’s Breath.’
He changed into the appearance of a demonic dragon while maintaining his status as a god of dawn.
The power of dawn rushing through the Dragon Heart of the 9th level.
The impure air in the Nine Emperor Islands area, which was full of demonic power, was burned up in one go.
After that, the Knights of Dawn charged in.
And I found the coordinates where the world tree that responded to the knights’ call would reach.
In an instant, the roots of the World Tree grew in the Nine Imperial Capitals and protected them.
“I thought it was impossible, but… A miracle really happened! “I thought there would never be a day in my life when I would re-enter the Nine Emperor’s Path!”
The center of the Nine Imperial Capitals.
My maternal grandfather shouted as he reached the old imperial palace of the Holy Ramir Empire.
The Knights of Dawn are directly confronting the demonic beasts in the Nine Emperor Islands.
But here, where the demon god Knoia opened the gate.
No matter how much the power of dawn protects everyone, it cannot last for a long time.
So, the elites of the Allied Forces.
Those stronger than Masters entered the center of the Nine Imperial Capitals.
It was three hours after the Breath bombardment.
“The Nine Emperor’s Path looked like this… If those two people hadn’t sacrificed their lives to create the seal, Island would have disappeared a long time ago.”
Duke Gerard also shed tears as he looked at the sight of the imperial palace.
Both my maternal grandfather and Duke Gerard were people who witnessed the prosperity of the Old Imperial Capital.
Before the Great Jesuit took place 20 years ago.
The empire at that time, like the calm before the storm, seemed to be enjoying the most splendid prosperity.
This place was full of luxury and extravagance that could be compared to the capital of the ancient empire.
However, the center was now polluted with a more bizarre appearance than any other area around the Keatic Gate.
Grasping Jijijijik-
What if the world tree seen in the primeval forest overwhelms those who see it with its majestic and gigantic appearance?
In the center of the imperial palace where the gate was summoned, there was a rag-like mass of bizarre pieces of meat the same size as the world tree.
Huge trees and trunks. At first glance, the roots resemble the shape of the world tree.
They all resembled the most bizarre forms of demonic beasts, lumps of meat gathered together.
Part of the meat stem. Each one of them gave me an unpleasant and fearful feeling, as if I was seeing Pedro who had become an apostle of chaos.
Even the elites of the Allied Forces who advanced with me into this center trembled in instinctive fear.
“The source of demonic beasts is chaos. Chaos is a place, an existence that cannot be anything else. No, they are non-existences that cannot even exist. Even the word “False god” Should not be used to describe them.”
I muttered in front of them.
And the chaos gathered into its greatest form is the Keatic Gate of the End.
It was Knoia, the demon god.
I held Siertia tightly in my hands.
“So, everyone, please hold on. Until I return from that gate. Please do not fall and purify the Nine Imperial Paths.”
Clap-
At those words, everyone raised their weapons and saluted me.
All plans were discussed in advance.
The current Allied Forces had to hold out in the Nine Emperor Islands.
Only if they do not fall can we create the power of dawn that can deal with the infinite magical soul power of that gate.
And I put that will into Siertia, Knoia. Are you planning on burning that gate down?
I raised my sword and greeted them with a final salute.
Don’t let Duke Gerard hear from others.
I heard words addressed to me in a low voice.
“Become the king of a new era. “Lord Julian.”
Without looking back, I moved on.
The center of the imperial palace where the old emperor lived.
And my parents threw themselves and sealed Knoia. To that final place.
***
The center of the imperial palace was already the gate itself.
The abyss of Knoia opens its mouth like an abyss whose bottom is unknown.
I have finally stepped into that area.
Humans. The source of the magical beasts and magical soul power that new humans have suffered for a long time.
Lots of information and thoughts. Those resentments quickly tried to consume my body.
‘Knoia.’
I really encountered the true form of that demon god, Knoia.
Knoia did not sit still.
The space of the gate that was covered with dark and damp residue.
By using that magical soul power, he created a majestic and huge temple to worship Knoia.
In an instant, I was in the hall of the temple.
The guy forming a huge shape in front of me instantly took the form of Jaedin.
– Infinite begins soon. The beginning soon ends. All of your appearances were conceived from me in the beginning. Through that, I will surpass you, the imperfect ones, and reign as a perfect being and the god of all things…
That will is not through words, but through the will of God.
Words handed down from that great oracle.
– By absorbing the imperfections of Jaedin and Yunir, you will become perfect…
And those words are like an echo in infinite time.
It echoed constantly in a space of chaos.
As expected.
As expected, Knoia was not a single voice.
‘A person who imitates a human and tries to transform into everything new. No, it would be correct to say them.’
It was a chaos that had survived until now by forming a colony of resentment without being able to become anything in itself.
Although I imitated Jadin’s appearance.
Perhaps due to the loss of an apostle, it changed into a different form without being able to maintain that form for long.
The demon god imitated Yunir’s appearance.
– I am the beginning and the last god created after all these eons. Because of that chaos, a new perfection will be brought to the earth…
But I already know the true nature of Yunir.
I immediately felt that what Knoia was imitating was a lie, only a superficial imitation of Yunir.
I held Siertia tightly.
‘I don’t fall for that kind of deception.’
Even in the heart of this chaos.
I could feel it through the resonating Sieertia.
New world tree.
And the Knights of Dawn are still fighting on the surface of the Old Imperial Capital.
Their will remains unbroken.
– Julian von Reinhardt!
– In the name of dawn, a new morning will open in the Old Imperial Capital!
Even if Knoia, where billions of resentments are gathered together, spews out curses.
As long as I stood in front of them, my legions were not afraid.
– Julian kekekekeuk. Are you willing to sacrifice everything for a fleeting moment?
And Knoia changed its appearance again.
That is Duke Pedro, whom I destroyed.
The guy repeated his words, imitating even his own apostle.
I was more confident in that appearance.
Like a lion roaring, I shouted.
“Chaos is ultimately an excuse for those who cannot become anything and have given up on finding their true self! Ghost of the old world. Your chaos only imitates the existence of God! The true path of God cannot be reached!”
Guuuuu-
And the very truth I spit out.
It was no different from Knoia, a colony that could not even define itself and was united by chaos and resentment.
That’s why demon beasts were able to survive by imitating the beings of Island Land.
– Haha!!
Billions of light sources echoed in the space of the horizon.
– So what! I am an evolving life! I am one and all at the same time. Julian von Reinhardt! As an imperfect person, you cannot follow in the footsteps of the ugly Jedin and Yunir!!
The echo was immediately transformed into an attack of magical soul power.
Purge Jijijik-
Billions of ghosts clung to my whole body.
Hehe…’
So many pieces that my body can’t count them.
I saw a future that was disintegrated into atoms.
Even if he is a false god.
In the current world created by Jaedin and Yunir.
The years of secretly rooting out the resentment of the demonic soul and growing its strength have lasted a long time.
‘You have to endure.’
If someone other than me were here right now.
The existence of that Knoia would have already been extinguished by the resentment spewed out.
Even his apostle, Pedro.
But I was holding on.
I had to endure it.
When the roots of the new world tree that have not yet arrived here enter this space again.
With Siertia, which has evolved into its final form, that resentment can be completely extinguished.
Never again, to the point where even resurrection is impossible.
‘We need to buy more time. Because I have a reason to hold on.’
Those for whom I carry the price of their lives on their shoulders.
Everyone in Iceland.
I am standing in front of them all.
But at the same time, I am only one person. He was the father of my children.
The reason why I truly have to endure.
That was exactly why I couldn’t tell anyone.
Wooooow-
My mother’s rosary, which she still wore around her neck at that time, resonated.
– How… Are you holding on?
Knoiga seemed to be angry and let out a voice of anger everywhere.
The fear of the abyss that would make even me tremble.
But my body started to warm up.
The wings of an angel appeared in the darkness. The wings began to shine and wrapped around my body.
I am at that moment.
I realized that I was not the only person in this room.
“Mother… Father…”
It was like that. The space where the two of you held out until the end against that Knoia.
Although the seal has disappeared.
They both believed in me and were waiting for me to come this far.
– I believed it. Julian.
– To come back as a father at a young age. He is a son, but he is much more great.
I could tell.
These wings that are now wrapping me warmly were the will of my parents.
I separated from my mother at a very young age, and have never even seen my father.
A voice that everyone is unfamiliar with.
But it was the voice I missed so much that tears flowed.
– Julian. I’m sorry for not being able to be with you. Still, I… Your mother and your father will be with you forever.
Great Saint Agnes.
My mother’s warm voice reached me.
My father Lucifiel had a playful expression even in this situation.
I knew it instinctively.
Sentai Demon King. The cruel devil is very proud of me right now.
I heard my father’s voice.
– Julian, you will continue the new era.
Looks like me.
But as befits the nickname of the devil’s minstrel. My father’s voice was so beautiful that actors in musical theater could not imitate it.
Those two people continued to cancel out Knoia’s magical soul power that was trying to erase my existence from the world.
‘The two people sacrificed their lives to seal the current gate…’
And now I felt like I knew why.
I closed my eyes.
Two faces passed through my mind.
Eirin and Lilia.
And my children waiting for my return in their wombs.
I had to protect. My precious being.
– You too will eventually kneel before the great chaos! Haha!! The seal that the Great Saint and the Merciless Demon King threw their lives for also collapsed under the reign of great chaos…
Knoia compressed space even harder.
As the devil said.
Even my mother, a great saint, and my father, a great demon king.
Even the seal that gave its life couldn’t stop him.
‘But I’m not afraid.’
I heard Eirin and Lilia’s voices calling me.
And even in this terrible chaos, my mother and father did not disappear and were still protecting me.
It seems like eternity has passed again.
In the abyss of magical soul power, I could only withstand his strength.
I didn’t break down.
As for the Demon God, I did not lose myself in the power of chaos.
– How…
I answered the guy.
“I am Julian von Reinhardt! Because he is the one who opens the morning of Iceland!”
It was simultaneously with that roar.
Gripping Jijijijijijik-
There was a crack in the chaotic space that this guy ruled.
The demon god was so embarrassed that the space shook.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-
And then the space exploded, and the world tree grew.
I knew it instinctively.
A new world tree created by my children.
The world tree answered my call.
The trunk of the World Tree immediately wrapped around Siertia.
“Let’s get this over with. “A bad relationship that I will never want to see again.”
The World Tree and Siertia have taken on a new form.
Guuuuu-
At that sight, Knoia could feel this gate of demonic soul trembling with fear.
Siertia’s final form.
The sword that opens the morning.
I opened my closed eyes.
At the same time, Siertiae, the final form of the Lion Heart Sword. I captured all of that dawn.
“Daybreak.”
A new sun has risen at the Gate of Doom.
The sun, which soon began to burn like the morning sun, extinguished all Knoia’s grudges.
The temple has come to an end.
The world became bright again. The morning of the Nine Imperial Capitals that everyone had hoped for has dawned.

Altern Mountains.
Geographically, it is the shortest route to and from the Empire’s Old Imperial Capital and the big city of the Demon Kingdom where the World Tree is located.
However, for a long time, the mountain range existed as a magical landscape full of magical soul power.
Therefore, the mountain range that was a symbol of the separation between the Empire and the Demon Kingdom is the infamous Altern.
However, the last day of the temple.
On the map of Iceland, the Altern Mountains have disappeared.
The empire’s scholars deduced that it was a strange phenomenon caused by the evaporation of demonic soul power that occurred when Knoia disappeared.
The newly created Altern Plain.
It was now being reborn as a new road and trade route connecting the Holy Ramir Empire and the Demon Kingdom of Agriel without obstacles.
And that huge road created through cooperation between the Empire and the Demon Kingdom.
Instead of its official name, Altern Highway, it was called Julian Boulevard by most people passing there.
Numerous merchants’ carriages and travelers’ horses were now passing along the Altern Avenue.
Among them, the inside of one carriage.
Two people inside the carriage were talking about something.
One is a young man.
The other was a beautiful young woman, but her belly was full, as if she were pregnant.
“If this continues, we will arrive at the wedding without any problems. It’s only a moment to the ecliptic.”
And a young man.
Julian said to Eirin in the carriage.
At the same time, seeing Yulian stroking her stomach, Eirin opened her eyes and said.
“Master. I like you, do you like Lilia?”
“…”
There was no answer right away.
After thinking for a while, Julian answered.
“Of course I like you, Eirin.”
Then, Eirin poked Julian’s side and said.
“Lies!”
– The end –
