I am the Monarch
< Chapter 52 Past >
------------------------------------
I felt dizzy in my head.
Besides, Latio died before I did. I was suddenly desperate during the Holy War....... '
Obviously, Latio was desperate at the age of twenty-eight.
After I met Latio, who was recently chased by the Black Moon Guild, I was even convinced that he was assassinated in his last life.
Did you pretend to be dead? '
Roan trembles all over.
Of course, I didn't know yet.
But if that's true, then everyone's playing around with Latio's jokes.
'Why on earth......?'
The question continued.
Right then.
Latio stands in front of Tempestas with his arms wide open.
"I will perform the ritual."
A soft and powerful voice echoes through the room.
"Oh! Finally!"
"Here we go!"
The men kneeling down before the end of the horse once more.
At the same time.
"Phew. Phew." Woohoo. "
"Phew. Phew." Woohoo. "
Along with the sounds of strange songs without lyrics, people appeared from all over.
One old brown conquered figure.
'They are followers of the Church of Tellian.'
Roan sighs and looks around.
The congregation sings a strange note with only a round mouth that does not know its meaning.
"Woohoo! Woohoo! Woohoo!"
The sound of the song grew louder.
I had to grow up.
The space that was so large that it was hard to fathom the end was filled with people.
Mixed with Humans, Elves and Demibeasts, as well as men and women.
Even Roan shows himself to dwarves he's never seen before.
They stand in a circle, centered on the altar.
Someone shed tears, and someone smiled brightly with a joyful expression.
Gulp.
Roan swallows dry water without even knowing it.
I was paralyzed by the strange atmosphere of people.
At that time, everyone around the altar knelt down and choked their heads.
The only person standing on two feet under the space was Latio.
He was still outstretching his arms.
"Woohoo."
Everyone fell down, and the weird song ended.
Latio looked behind everyone's back and asked in a low and powerful voice.
"Where the hell is it?"
Moment.
"This is the world."
The voices of all come together, filling a huge space.
Latio nods.
"Hell is no longer underground, beneath and deep in the magic system. This is where we live, hell. I tried to save this world by the will of God and the will of the enlightened."
The ulcer continued.
But...
"Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh! Latio!"
"Holy Father!"
"Savior!"
Those who lay on the ground were impressed and shed tears.
Latio smiled faintly and spoke in hindsight.
"But because of the ignorant and the ignorant, the will of salvation has been broken."
At the end of the sentence, the first men who fell to the ground shouted with their heads held high.
"Ignorant Emperor!"
"You will burn in hell!"
"Emperor Roan de Amaranth! Your ignorance wears my tongue!"
The Holy Land spilled.
Other people who filled the space didn't lift their heads, but the emperor, the scorn toward Roan, poured out restlessly.
'What the…..'
Roan was able to feel a cool life in Tempestas' memory.
Latio nods, smiling faintly.
"That's right. The distraction is imperative. The ignorant are the emperors. The Keeper of Hell is the Emperor. Emperor Roan de Amaranth has brutally trampled our will. We destroyed altars prepared all over the continent and captured our brothers and hindered the salvation and purification of the world."
"Ugh. Ugh. Ugh."
The faithful burst into tears, unable to endure the resentment.
I was filled with joy and laughed and was excited, then I spit out insults and got angry, and now I'm unfair again and shed tears.
Roan grips his teeth.
"Cultists."
I felt goosebumps all over my body.
Regardless of his feelings, Tempestas' memories continued to flow.
"The world is in the hands of the Emperor. We can no longer carry out the will of salvation and purification. I have no choice but to watch this world, this hell."
A terrible voice.
The voice scratched the hearts of the congregation.
"I can't do that!"
"I can't leave this hell alone!"
"We must purify, we must purify!"
They shout against the evil.
Roan frowns.
"What made them fanatics?" '
There must be a reason for this.
He wanted to find it.
However, I couldn't find the answers I wanted just by the scenery and the scenery that was flowing by now.
In the meantime, Latio's story continues.
"Everyone gave up. Even I gave up. That's when Duke Fields Newman's aide and Imperial general, Joker Gailard Barman, wrote to me."
He shed tears with an impressive expression.
"The lone disciple, our loyal brother, who had to live with himself, sacrificed his own life to take the command rod of the commander that Duke Pills Newman owned."
"Ooooooo!"
A strange elasticity burst out.
It was elastic with tears.
"Hmm. Duke Phil Newman......."
Roan bursts into elasticity in a different way.
'The life I don't remember, when I was a united continent, Fields was Duke Newman and had the baton of commanders.'
There were clearly different lives, but very oddly similar corners.
Regardless of that, Latio's words continued.
"Many of the Pope's priests and monks have laid down their lives to secure the command rod that was taken from the birthplace of Gaylad Barman, or the Faith of Gaylad. Thanks to their noble deaths for the salvation and purification of the world......."
He steps to the left and points to the commander's baton, which is located in the center of the altar.
"At last, I was able to offer the commander's baton to the altar."
"Ah......."
Everyone once again burst low elasticity.
The tears that were shed in sorrow turned back into tears filled with joy and joy.
People responded dramatically to Latio's words and actions.
"This commander's baton, not exactly the jewel at the end of this….."
Latio pointed fingers at Tempestas.
"Tempestas has amazing abilities and power."
He pulls both hands in front of his chest.
God-fearing, respectful posture.
"If we can awaken its power and strength, we can save and purify this world."
"Oh!!!!"
The whole congregation bows down and looks up at you.
Both eyes were filled with a hot desire.
However, Latio suddenly showed a look of distress.
"But to awaken its power and strength, there must be a noble and sacred sacrifice."
Scary to the end.
"I'll give my life!"
"Our lives are on the line!"
"I will lay down my life and the life of my son!"
The faithful shout with their eyes wide open.
A glorious image in case another congregation might take away a glorious moment.
It was really fanatical.
Latio covers his face with both hands.
"Huff. Huff. Ugh."
He breathed and wept.
"Ah......."
The congregation screams and raises their right hands with groaning.
They reach out to Latio without a second glance.
"Don't cry."
"Holy Father. Don't cry."
"We were wrong."
I couldn't understand what I was doing wrong.
Roan felt a terrible headache in this frenzied scene.
I keep getting nauseous.
Later, Latio took a breath and spread his arms wide.
"Enlightened ones."
I couldn't understand what it was that I realized.
"I just want to thank you for your noble heart and courage."
He was still crying.
"I accept everyone's wishes."
I felt strong in my voice.
"Give me your lives."
It was a permission and an order.
"I will save and purify the world in your name."
Scary to the end.
"Oh!!!!!!"
The congregation raises their arms, cheering in one voice.
Latio glances at him, reaching out his hand and lightly touching the center of the altar.
Moment.
Papa, Papa, Papa, Papa!
The symbols engraved on the center of the altar spread like light throughout the space, like a waterway.
A symbol filled with the floor on which the congregation sits and the ceiling being held.
It had a very dark and disgusting aura.
But...
"Phew. Phew." Woohoo. "
"Phew. Phew." Woohoo. "
The congregation cheered loudly and sang a strange song.
Latio shed hot tears as he looked at the scene.
He covers his face with both arms to see if he can't take it anymore.
Forcibly reaping the overwhelming sadness and sadness.
But...
"Hehe. Stupid bastards."
A tiny, faint sound rubs Latio's lips and flows out.
I couldn't hear the rabid congregation, but I could hear it as clearly as Roan who was right next to them.
as well.
"Smile?"
I had a nasty smile on my mouth that covered me with my arms.
'It was all a lie.'
Roan grips his teeth.
The fury rises.
The sad heart and tears of grief towards the salvation, purification and congregation of the world.......
Everything was a lie.
Now all I could think about was the ugly, dirty desire and ambition in Latio's eyes.
"Hehe! Hmph!"
Latio grinned his face after bursting into laughter once more.
He closes his eyes, his arms flashing.
That was the signal.
"Ahhhh!"
The faithful, together with their weapons, draw a small knife from their arms.
Sharp Forged Knife, Crude Knife, Big Knife, Small Knife.......
The man who can't even prepare takes out a sharp piece of iron.
"Holy Father!"
"Save and purify the world!"
"Savior!"
"Wake up, Tempestas!"
The loud voices fill the room.
At the same time, the faithful swing their swords at each other.
Squeak, squeak!
Sharp blades and metal pierce each other's throats.
"Oh, no!"
As Roan watches, he screams and leaps down the altar.
"You lunatics!"
Roan waves his hand as he spits out an insult.
However, we couldn't stop the congregation with our formless hands.
"Son. Daughter. You guys go, too."
In front of Roan, a middle-aged woman stabbed the neck of a boy and girl who looked about ten years old.
"Ah......."
Roan knelt before a terrible sight.
No, it collapsed.
Regardless of his will, Tempestas' memory clearly shows what really happened.
"Ahhhh!"
"Ooooooo!"
The sound of frenzy subsides.
It didn't take long for each other to die.
"Shhh."
"Ugh."
"Glug."
Painful moaning fills the room.
"How did this happen......."
Roan does not speak easily.
Everyone lost their lives.
Only Latios survived.
"You, you, you crazy bastard!!!"
Roan jumps up and rushes toward Latio.
But it was also useless.
Then.
Paaaahhhhhh!
Black light emanates from the engraved symbols along the altar, floor and ceiling.
Lively blood flows into the center of the altar, following the light.
"Hehehehe."
Latio took off the fake mask he had been wearing the whole time.
He reveals his teeth and bursts a bizarre smile.
"You're stupid. You're really stupid."
Laughing loudly at the waist.
Blood, soaked in the soles of his feet, flows towards the center of the altar, Tempestas.
"This won't cost me and Manawa my life, will it?"
Latio's gaze led to Tempestas.
I felt a little nervous in my eyes.
Tempestas didn't change much after a tremendous amount of black and blood flowed in.
"Should I collect some more sacrifices......."
The faithful were merely sacrifices.
"If I'd given my life for Manawa, I'd have failed. Good job replacing them with sacrifices."
He was not one to venture into uncertainty.
"We'll need a bigger place than this to offer more sacrifices."
The bold murmur.
So it was crueler, uglier, and disgusting.
Roan is furious with you.
"Crazy bastard! Sacrificing people for Tempestas! You crazy….."
When the horse goes on like that.
Paaaahhhhhh!
A golden glow emanates from Tempestas.
"Hehehehe! Wasn't that a failure? Kuhahaha! You're awake! Tempestas!"
Latio blew up the mine.
He grabs Commander Cold Command's baton.
"Here! Sacrament of God, gift of the dragon! Give me another chance!"
He closes his eyes, embracing Tempestas in his chest.
"No!"
Roan yells and punches, but it's useless.
Finally, the golden light emanating from Tempestas fills the space.
"Ah......."
Roan once again closes his eyes with an unknown coziness.
And when I opened my eyes again, the landscape was different.
He was still in Tempestas' memory.
The memory continues with a tail on its tail.
Boring times have passed.
And finally.
"You're back."
I heard a very familiar voice in my ears.
Roan carefully opens his closed eyes.
A familiar landscape opened before my eyes.
"What do you think? A glimpse into Tempestas' memories?"
The protagonist of the voice was Kalian.
Roan frowns at a fierce headache.
All sorts of memories were mixed up in confusion.
But now was not the time to relax.
"Calian."
Low voice.
"Huh?"
Callian smiles faintly.
Roan steps forward, whispering in a small voice.
"The King must also teleport to Mediacis Castle......."
When the horse goes on like that.
Paaaahhhh!
A white pillar rises over Roan and Calian's body.
Spot!
The radiant pillar quickly hides its appearance.
At the same time, both Roan and Calian disappeared.
It was teleport magic.
