It was precisely a lion covered in pure silver hair that seemed only good with silver. I guess it's a male lion. An enormous amount of hyenas was shaking in the night breeze, making its prestigious giant body look even more majestic.

"The Imperial Devil. Then... no, right?

"Oh. You're not."

Setuna affirmed Sheila's inquiry as she looked out for the silver lion. At first glance, it's not strange to judge him as the Imperial Demon, but if you think about it carefully, he was clearly different from the Imperial Demon. The Imperial Devil had basically no eyeballs because he was emitting unique signs of backstroking human nerves. Emitting red light from the eye hole was the greatest characteristic of the Imperial Devil, and the Silver Lion did not have it. The face clearly shows that the moon does not have the characteristic eye of the Imperial Demon because it is not well visible in retrograde light, but not well visible. The eyes of the Imperial Devil are what increases their radiance in darkness.

"Well, what the hell..."

"No way, Rayon?

"What's Rayon... told by Gandia's founding legend. Um? But no way, no..."

"It's a world where there's God, there's dragons, there's spirits. It's no wonder what happened. Nevertheless, why are you in the Dragon House again?

Rayon is a silver lion who appears in Gandia's founding legend, as Miliu said. It is assumed that Gandia's founding was recommended to the person who became the first king, and that he helped to do so, and that he became the name of the country that meant the Lion God in the ancient language of Gandia, thanks also to the help of the Silver Lion Rayon. Rayon the Silver Lion is also the patron saint of Gandia. The silver armor that Leongand once imitated the lions he wore during the various battles was also a symbol of the laion. Not so long ago, the influence of silver lion rayon remains intense for Gandhia.

But it never seemed odd that Layon was here, as Setuna was now. Rayon is a legendary beast in Gandia's founding mythology and is like Gandia's patron saint. It is only wonderful that it is in the Dragon House, the capital of Zalwarn.

"It's Setuna!

Unexpectedly, a silver lion kicked a scaffold and flew, wondering if the voice I heard had come down. The body hair of silver shines pale with moonlight, and the vast number of hyenas is swept by the wind. And when I descended into the courtyard where Setuna and the others were, I turned my face to Setuna. It becomes clear that the moonlight shows off its harsh lion's face, so that it can be buried in a vast hyena, with a toddler's face full of elegance. It was a face I had seen. The moment he discovered his face, Setsuna was drained of his liver.

"Dear Leona!?

Even though he raised his bare voice, he managed to make Fuku laugh greatly at Leona, who remained buried in the hyena of the silver lion.

Rayon, it's Setuna.

"I know."

The moment Layon uttered a low and sinister voice, Setuna and the others were engulfed in surprise.

"Heh!?

"Shh, you talked...? You lion."

"Oh, no way"

"Son of man, how do you relate without saying a word?"

"Oh, no, if they say so... but aren't you surprised? If a lion suddenly talks."

"Hmm... are you surprised by the extent to which a person's child"

"I wasn't surprised."

Setuna didn't miss the fact that the silver lion looked a little troubled when Leona fluttered in the hyena of the silver lion. I guess it's the gift of Nage's and Gracia's education that Leona can converse fluently despite being only a three-year-old, nevertheless, I can't help but think.

"Rayon...... so, does it fit?

"Hmm. Rayon is my friend."

Leona put her little hand on Layone's forehead, as she said with a full smile. Rayon looks disgusting. As the face of the harsh lion smiles calmly, it would be from the intimacy of Leona and Leon.

"Friends..."

"Leona says so, but I'm just protecting this girl as Gandia's patron saint. Protect the blood of the Gandhian royal family, but not mine. This daughter is the heir to the Gandhian royal throne. That's why I'm here in the Dragon City."

Rayon, although he has strictly told me, was a little ruined because of Leona, who is holding onto him so that he can be buried in hyenas. Yes, it's not good either. His series of words, however, made it clear that Rayon was still the silver lion itself that appeared in the founding myth, which made him nervous. It's face-to-face with legendary beings, and Layon himself was divine.

The divine obsession of that laion was directed at Setuna. Beautiful eyes like Jade seem to indicate that he is not God himself. God's eyes are often golden.

It's Setuna.

"... do you know me"

"If you are loyal to Leongando Ray-Gandhia, the king ahead of Gandhia, there's no way I don't know."

(Earlier King......)

Maybe Rayon also figured out that Setuna rebelled in her chest. He looked surprised.

"Do you have any doubts about my statement?

"Your Majesty is... still"

"Hmm. I thought you knew, but the king's capital is gone. Leongand killed the castle on the pillow as well. Don't expect him to survive. I did see his death."

Rayon has told me as if he didn't care about Leona. Maybe it's because I've already told Leona that fact, but I can't help but think that I made it too clear. Most importantly, Leona seemed to hear a lot about Leongand's life and death from him when she saw that she hadn't changed one expression in Leon's statement either.

And Setuna, too, by that word of Rayon, had to be convinced of Leongand's death. As for Leongand's survival, it was something he had given up somewhere, hoping somewhere. There was no reason for Leongando alone to survive beyond the fact that the death of the thirteen knights became definitive and that of Quon, who was there on the spot, was also certain.

"Wait."

"What? Miliu-Levaire."

"If you were Gandia's patron saint, why didn't you protect His Majesty? That's not weird."

Miloo eats and hangs on the rayon.

"... I was the same person who wanted to protect Leongando. But that was impossible. The connection that covers the heavens and the earth has made my existence intolerable."

"The world? If there's such a thing, why are you here now?

"Until the kingdom disappeared."

Rayon says as he deserves.

"It was the man you call the Holy Emperor who covered this heaven and earth with bonds. His men are bearers of power that also governs the gods, and by their great power stretched a strong bond between this heaven and earth and the other kingdom. Doing so minimized interference from the otherworlds, as well as making the spirits unable to serve. But it seems that his people have forged a bond so as not to spread the power of the gods."

"That's what Malik called the junction. And that junction broke with" great destruction ”. So the world is full of divine authority, and albinism and crystallization are driving the world crazy..."

"As it is, heaven and earth themselves are poisoned by the power of God. In that case, not if the survival of the royal family is so."

"That's right...... what can I do?

"The best solution is to ask these heavenly and earth-filled gods to leave. But that's hard too. The gods remain in this heaven and earth by covenant with the Holy King. If we break the covenant, the gods will lose their raison d 'être and will have to disappear. It will not be tolerated by the Gods' existential significance"

"So the gods tried the resurrection of the Holy King"

That is the final war, a ritual that involves the whole continent. The ritual of the resurrection of the Holy Emperor. The ritual moved to the final stage, after which it was only in a state of waiting for success. But the resurrection of the Holy Emperor was prevented by the work of Quon and the thirteen knights. As a result, the Kuons must not have imagined that there would be a “great destruction” and that even the junction and the doings would be able to disappear. The gods remained in the land, and therefore the divine authority was full of the world. Divine authority is nothing but fierce poison to creatures other than the gods, and the world has slowly turned to death.

Most importantly, if the ritual of the Resurrection of the Holy Emperor had been a success, the gods might indeed have been able to return to the world they were meant to be, but this very world known as the Illus Valle would not have survived. The Holy King was cursing the world. He promised to destroy the world with the resurrection. In other words, I am glad that the resurrection of the Holy King was in exchange for the doom of this world.

The world was spared from doom.

In exchange for slow death.

There is no room for debate as to which was better.

The status quo, albeit marginally hopeful, was far more than being destroyed by the Holy King.

"But the resurrection of the Holy Emperor was hindered by Quon and others, and as a result this heaven and earth suffered devastating damage. That's probably why the junction disappeared. Therefore I have expressed, and therefore God's heart is filled with heaven and earth. Therefore, the heavens and the earth are bound to perish."

"Better than being destroyed by the Holy King."

"... Hmm. Exactly."

Layone nods sternly. It seemed understandable to Layon that if the Holy King were resurrected, the world itself would have been destroyed by the Holy King. This means that it was a certainty, and that the actions that risked the lives of the Quons were not in vain. Though the quon somehow seems to be resurrected and part of Nea Gandia.

"Besides, it doesn't necessarily mean problems that can't be solved. If we can persuade this heavenly and earth-filled god, we can also turn God's mind from poison to medicine."

"Convince the gods..."

As for that, Malik was also there. But Malik also said it was extremely difficult. For the gods, emitting divine authority is the same as breathing for humans. There is still no reason for the gods to think about their influence on the world they are supposed to be in and on their followers and suppress their divine authority, but to do so in a completely irrelevant other world.

"It's difficult, but you might be able to do it."

"Me?

"You must be the protector of the Demon King's Staff."

"That's right..."

The Demon King's Wand is synonymous with the Black Spear Chaos Blinger. I hope it is most abominable to the gods of the other worlds, who also abhorred Setuna, the owner of the wand of the Demon King.

"If you are the enemy of a million worlds, you may even be able to discuss it with the gods on an equal footing. In order to do so, you must maximize the power of the Demon King's wand and drag the gods down to the same position."

This would mean that, in order to persuade the gods, they need to be seated in the bargaining table, and to do so they need to show off the overwhelming power of the black spear.
