Colossus Hunter

< 42. Dusk of the Gods (5) >

The first place I go to be king is my territory.

My dungeon, where my world water is.

O-rang loved it, but he was looking at me as if I was the body of Uriel Diablo, as if I was wary of the chariots and the Nazis.

I graciously approached the water of the world.

And.

I buried her.

“Rodsey, this is...? ”

Lyra asked. I made her follow me. She thought she had a right to know.

“Elena.”

I slowly open my mouth and look at Elena, and I have no choice but to shake my head.

Her pale appearance and her still blue-white wings were still beautiful. It was as it was in the memory. That's why the remaining ‘emotions’ of Uriel Diablo were being released to the outside.

“Elena · · · · · · · · This person · · · · · · · · · ·? ”

Lyra looks at Elena with complicated eyes.

As soon as she gave birth to Lyra, Elena died. I know the name, but I don't know the shape.

Normal body should have died on the spot before giving birth to Lyra. Until then, it was a miracle that I was alive. Thanks to you, I met Lyra, and this is how I got Elena back.

To think, it was never a miracle for a moment.

- You're all I need. You were all I had in the world.

The voice echoes in my head.

At the same time, my body moved freely, gently wrapping around Elena's body.

‘Uriel. Uriel Diablo. ’

I've given it all to myself, but my feelings for Elena are still with me.

No, the final piece of the soul has been revived by a violent emotional surge.

‘This seat is yours. ’

I've allowed the remnants of Uriel's soul to move.

The end of the world. I didn't mean to interrupt.

“Even though you're finally in a position to hold it all, you still can't have it all. ”

Uriel brushes Elena's cheek. His body trembles.

Sun King. It's all thanks to Elena that Uriel Diablo, the most useless of all, was finally able to get here. She made Uriel stronger, and she and Lyra were able to leave the castle and take her place in Daemon-Lord.

“But don't worry. I will ask all those who have caused your death. Because he and I are on the same page. ”

I didn't say that.

Uriel said.

Is it a match?

‘Ah.'

Then I realized.

Elena's dead because she was in the swamp of the Abyss. The Maw itself killed her. Uriel Diablo was looking to destroy the Maw itself.

More desperately than me.

He wasn't just talking to Elena. You're talking to me, too.

“After we have confessed all our sins, we will meet again. Elena. Wait until then. I will never leave you alone. ”

“Roadshire · · · · · · · · · ·? ”

Lyra said in an anxious voice.

Uriel's words coincided with "Let's meet after we die."

But Uriel does not look away. Elena was the only one staring. She alone was full of his soul.

‘There was no room for Lyra from the start. ’

Uriel was hoping for Elena. I loved Laira, but it was a different kind of love from Elena's. Parental affection.

That feeling was an explosion.

I watched Uriel Diablo quietly.

Lyra was the same. But her eyes, they were filled with grief.

Maybe he noticed.

“Never leave you alone. ”

* * * * *

When all the seasons were over, I encountered him for the first time.

- I think I'm good at choosing you.

“Uriel Diablo? ”

- You've done more than I've ever seen. I never expected to kill even the Sun King.

“I can't fulfill my wishes unless I turn the impossible into possible. ”

That's why I picked you. The tenacity that never gives up.

Uriel smiled spontaneously. I did what I couldn't. It started with the same condition but produced a completely different result.

Uriel nodded his head.

- Please, Leila, there's only Elena in my heart. But what about you?

“Are we leaving? ”

- If it was you, I'd trust Lyra. She's grown up since childhood, but she's just as fragile. Please don't hurt me.

“If you know everything, you won't accept me. ”

Isn't that what you think? How long were you going to keep playing with him, covering everything up?

“Joking? I don't intend to. ”

- You don't think he's really noticing? I'm just keeping my eyes closed. He's thoughtful.

“Looks like a kid with a bragging arm. ”

By the way, is it true?

Lyra Diablo, is she realizing who I am?

- Even if you are confused right now, you will rise again. She looks just like you. I'll never give up. They're attracted to each other.

“If I don't give up, I won't give up on you. ”

- I'm the one who's gone. I can't love someone who doesn't have it.

“You're desperate.”

- · · · · · You were the only hope for me anyway.

Uriel has had countless dreams over the last 100 years.

And he chose me.

“Why didn't you try it yourself? Why did you choose me? ”

It makes no sense just because of your tenacity not to give up. That kind of tenacity will be with Uriel. If you look at his memories and actions, his simple will may be more than mine.

Uriel sighs deeply.

- You had what I didn't have. Prejudice. And being human.

“You chose me because I'm human? ”

I understood that I could deal with my enemies with less prejudice than Uriel who lived in the Abyss. However, it didn't make sense that I chose it because I was human.

- Infinite possibilities. Especially when you had the shiniest star. A star that leads others at the forefront.

“I don't want to be a hero. ”

- But it will be. Avoiding your destiny isn't avoiding it. Also, I have limitations.

“The limits of growth? ”

- Yeah, you're probably feeling a little fuzzy, too. This body can't take any more new magic.

With Uriel Diablo's abilities, you need to be quick to learn and skilled in everything you learn. So I tried to have several, but it was never expressed as a skill.

The same is true even when you try to use a sword. So, unlike acting with the body when it was chilly, I felt like I was being cut off.

I didn't think so, but when I heard it from myself, I had nothing more to say.

- But you're different. Loneliness, you are constantly embracing new power. Beyond the limits of growth, projecting my full potential. Maybe it's the ring.

“Do you see the ring? ”

A ring of aspiration. It is visible only to me and invisible to no one.

I didn't even see a colonial who was the owner of the ring.

- I'm you, you're me. There's no way you can't see it. And that ring is making your connection to me more fluid. I can't believe you turned Humans into more than just daemon road vessels. I've never heard of such a thing. The one who used to own the ring. He must know something.

“Min-sik Kim · · · · · · · · · ·. ”

- But we have to be careful. If you have a problem with that ring now, your original body won't survive. Maybe it's fatal.

The ring is a symbol of 'Chronos’, which was worshiped by the Order of Aletheia. The god of time. As a colonist, Kronos will bring us back. ’I lived a sweet life.

If Aleatia is Latatosk, who is Kronos?

Is it the same thing, or...?

- I want my wind and Lyra.

“Is it going away forever? ”

- I'm going to resist the Star. I'm a seer. There is nothing perfect in this world, even if it is a great star. And when you took the star.

“I'll see you then. ”

- But you mustn't boast about being king of the sun. This is just the beginning. The commanders of the commanders never follow the Sun King easily.

“But if I make them follow me, I can change the course of the war. ”

If they turn their backs, you're dead. But you can do it.

Uriel's soul fades further.

Soon after his appearance disappeared completely, I felt like my heart was empty.

I slowly put my hands on my chest.

‘What a waste.’

But he clearly received the gift he left.

[You achieved a fairy tale rate of 100%.]

Finally, it was reborn as‘ real '.

* * * * *

The time.

When Uriel closed his eyes and did not even move, a white essence protruded from Elena's body and led him to Lyra.

‘What is this? ’

Lyra tilts her head toward the essence that entered her heart.

- Beat the will of the divine, Lou. You'll need it someday.

At that moment.

The white essence soon turned into a window.

But it looks incomplete.

Several pieces are empty.

Only when the rest of the pieces are found will the spear awaken in a perfect state.

But Leia realizes that this is Elena's soul.

‘Elena, who gave birth to me. ’

There were no more answers.

But in her heart, she was clearly experiencing a clever window.

Elena's warmth remains.

At the same time, a few memories flow into her head. Fragmented memories of Elena loving Lyra.

- I love you, my daughter.

‘Sorry.'

However, Rye was not embracing the power.

I thought I knew the love Elena felt for Lyra. In her memory, Elena always loved for Lyra in her belly. ’I kept saying it. But Laira also loves the Uriel Diablo Elena loved. The guilt was holding her back.

* * * * *

It is not unusual for a successor to kill a king and take his place in the abyss. Uriel Diablo was of kin, and he had enough qualifications, so it was natural for me to be king.

Leaving the territory, I immediately headed for the Castle of the Sun King.

Sun King's Castle.I can't believe it's time to set foot here.

Brainy!

My heart was beating loudly.

Lyra, who was standing next to me, was nervous.

I became King of the Sun, but I knew it was only a reasonable name after all.

But it will never end with just a name.

‘If I wanted to be satisfied with small things, I didn't even start. ’

Everything in this castle will be mine.

To do that, I took a big step.
