Volume 10, Epilogue
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
“It was a long time ago. There was an ordinary boy.”
Hiro began to speak in a hushed voice. Liz listened in silence.
“But he had a little different knowledge than the others.”
Hiro continued to weave his voice, pointing to his own head with his finger.
“It was knowledge so valuable that people were happy to call him ‘the savior.'”
He spoke in a somewhat sad, somewhat fragile manner, and all that was conveyed was the pain he felt.
“But as they spend more and more time together, the boy’s knowledge gradually becomes less valuable because people were creatures that learnt. The boy’s knowledge was no longer his own.”
Eventually, the boy may find himself abandoned. He was haunted by the threat that he might be discarded.
The boy pursued ‘power.’ He kept on chasing it desperately.
However, time passed in vain, and the boy was discouraged day after day without gaining anything.
The boy was still ordinary. However, the environment around him was changing.
“One day, a turning point came to the boy. A king appeared before him.”
The ‘king’ asked the boy if he wanted his power and offered him the forbidden fruit.
The boy, cornered, ate the fruit.
He was then captivated by the allure of ‘power.’
It was the day when everything went wrong―the day the times changed.
“It was later named ‘The Fallen’ and became an ‘abhorrent name’ for ‘fools.'”
More than 1,000 years ago, a ‘king’ of a certain country, out of curiosity, crushed a spirit stone and created the ‘spirit magic pill’ with a special manufacturing process.
He gave it to a soldier – a boy he had taken hostage from another country – to drink, but… Nothing happened at that time, and the ‘king’ was very discouraged.
But in the middle of the night, when everyone was asleep, the boy began to suffer. Soon after, the boy’s appearance changed, and he lost his reason and became a monster.
The patrolmen who noticed the change became the first victims, and then the monster ate the ‘king’ and killed everyone in the castle, young and old, male and female, indiscriminately.
“The country was annexed by another nation in the ensuing chaos. The boy took part in that battle as a monster.”
Later, the boy was protected by his brother-in-law, but he could not return to his original form.
“But the boy, who had gained power, performed tremendously. He continued to fight against the fear of the curse that was slowly eating away at him.”
So, there was no end to the number of people who became ‘the fallen’ after witnessing the power of the boy who had been ordinary.
Even the kings of countries about to be destroyed began to drink ‘the devil’ in order to avenge their own demise. Some even took advantage of this and ‘killed the devil,’ and the era entered a dark period.
“Eventually, the boy won so many battles that he was revered as a God of War.”
“Not everyone lost their reason during the Fall, but a few, like the boy, persevered.”
There were those who retained their rationality while gaining physical abilities that far surpassed those of ordinary humans.
People called those who endured the fall as Majin.
“But some people called them…
――The evil god.
“Liz, leave the rest to me. You don’t have to carry the whole burden.”
The mask in Hiro’s hand shattered easily, and shards fell to the ground beneath his feet.
“It took me a long time to get here.”
The ‘golden’ light that shone in both of Hiro’s eyes looked at Liz with great dignity.
“The permanent prosperity of the Grantz is just around the corner. A thousand years of history is about to be written.”
Hiro thrusts the Heavenly Emperor into the ground and extends his arm to Liz, his hand blackened by Ladon’s blood.
“I want you to give me the Flame Emperor. Then you will become Emperor of the Grantz and lead the world.”
“What about Hiro?”
Finally, Liz responded.
Hiro smiles at her, the corners of his eyes softening.
“I will continue to watch over you. Continue to love the history you are weaving.”
Under Hiro’s feet, with his arms outstretched, the light and darkness emitted by the Heavenly Emperor and the Dark Emperor are melding together. It was as if a full moon floating in the dark night had appeared, giving a gentle yet fragile impression.
“Throughout heaven and earth―as of today, the time of blankness comes to an end.”
Hiro’s expression as he turned his gaze to Liz once again was filled with intense and fierce resolve.
“I―will become a god and rule over the heavens.”
Hearing this declaration, Liz pointed the tip of the Flame Emperor at Hiro.
Hiro looked at her with a fresh face in the intense and beautiful crimson――,
――He laughed.
