I thought I was a child... Are you willing to do that after experiencing the power of Astia?

I did not avoid Garon's gaze of staring at me with his big, yellow eyes.

“Yes, if no one can do it... I'll do it. I will crush Astia and kill Reflexa with my own hands. ”

Why do you want to do that? What's in it for you...

“Why did Lord Garon risk his life to save the continent in the past Baryon War? Did you do it for profit? ”

….

I opened my mouth one step closer to the silent Garon to see if my question was stuck.

“Mr. Haks, who lived next door before his hometown burned down, didn't have a left leg. I was forcibly dragged to the monster wave and lost by the monster. ”

It's overwhelming.

“Lady Serena, who lived in the center of the village, treated me really well as her own son. If you look at me... ”

I still remember vividly.

He who smiled widely when he saw me and took out the snacks from his pocket.

“You said it was like his son came back alive. Unfortunately, his son died participating in the monster wave. ”

Every time I stepped one step closer to Garon, I told him one by one about the people who had been hurt, either directly or indirectly by the monster wave.

Not to persuade him to fight Reflexa, but to make my point.

It's overwhelming.

I suddenly opened my mouth as I looked at Garon's face, which narrowed the distance.

“There was a boy named Kaiyan in a small village called Vernov. It wasn't a rich family, it wasn't a great family. It was a boy born in a commoner's house. But the boy had a family. ”

I said that for a moment, and stopped talking in my fluttering heart. I think I'm gonna cry right now.

No matter how hard you try, you never forget. People screaming at home and being killed by monsters who invaded the village.

“Phew... But one day, the monsters who invaded the village lost their family in vain. But instead of revenge, the boy had to run away in fear. ”

I still regret thinking about that time.

Don't run away to live alone. Even if I die, I'll still be fighting them. At least I wouldn't have to live with myself like this.

“Mr. Kaiyan...”

“Monsters are an evil enemy that cannot coexist with me. So if any of those monsters are killing people for them... I'll kill them myself. ”

My eyes are red with poison.

I spit the last word with those red eyes, looking straight at Garon in front of me.

“Lord Garon, do you need a greater and greater reason? ”

Just because Garon or Isabelle tried to stop us, I didn't intend to give up. I just wanted to say something to those who watched Astia, saying they couldn't.

If you really are the protector of the former continent of UNESIA, don't give up on them.

... No. That's good enough to fight Reflexa. Come to think of it, I also fought the Baryons to protect the lives of the continents...

Garon closed his eyes to see if he was shocked by what I said or came to mind.

“Mr. Kaiyan...”

“Isabelle, if you're going to use the energy of compassion on me... I don't want you to use it right now. ”

I raised my hand to Isabelle who was coming.

I was afraid that the energy she was exhaling would make the poison in my heart go away.

But Isabelle grabs my hand, making sure she doesn't want to stop walking.

“I don't. Mr. Kaiyan, have you forgotten the conversations you had with me yesterday? I lost my family to Astia, too. They… Reflexa with their own hands…”

Yeah, I was.

I heard from her that Davihokan, her biological brother and prince of Manyslan, was killed by Astia ten years ago. The reason he died for Astia was to protect Isabelle, who had not yet awakened the power of God.

“… I'm sorry. I was thinking too much. ”

“Mr. Kaiyan, Garon doesn't just want to speak against Astia. If it wasn't for the Great War... I would've risked my life and gone to war. ”

“The Great War you didn't tell me about? We can't just abandon Astia because of what might happen. ”

I asked what the great war between Astia and Garon was all about.

However, Isabelle, who answered the other questions well, did not tell me that she could not answer that question as well. The one who can tell you that is not himself, but Garon.

Cough!

As the earth trembles, momentarily, Garon opens his eyes, and his enormous hands are lifted, where Elder Elder Elder Elder Elder flies toward me slowly, flying toward the sky.

“Kaiyan.”

“Elder, are you all right? ”

“Yeah, I guess you were worried. I'm fine. In fact, I feel refreshed because the energy that was pressing me disappeared in the middle of the smoke. It's been a long time. ”

Not only the horse, but Elder Elder Elder Elder Elder Elder's expression made him feel good.

“So the restraining curse is gone? ”

“Yes, his appointment with Reflexa has completely disappeared. Now he doesn't know where I am even if I'm on the continent of Unicia. ”

“Yes… wait a minute. So you're saying that Reflexa knew where Elder Elder Elder Elder Elaine was until now? ”

I felt creepy for a moment.

I thought about killing that Reflexa guy myself, but that's the story since it's all grown up.

But if he knows where Elder Elder Elder Elder Elder is now...

‘That means he could be here by now. ’

The moment I felt more anxious that he could come to me at any moment, Ellen tapped my shoulder.

Tuk-tuk.

“Don't worry. He can't come here. No, even if I wandered the continent all I wanted, he wouldn't have come. ”

“Yes? What is that…. ”

He's right. Reflexa is not a situation where I can move around because I have to fill my void.

Before asking again, I was confused in my mind by Garon admitting the fact.

“What the hell are you talking about? So Reflexa's not moving right now? ”

Yes, he was forced to do what I had to do instead of taking away the source of power. That's why you can't move on your own unless it's something special.

“What is it? That he's replacing Lord Garonne? ”

It is to fill the void of the lost Pwarrin God. You have to do what you have to to to slow down the Great War.

I swallowed Garon's words, which gave me a heavy atmosphere. Given the mood, it seemed like he was going to tell me a really important secret.

Kaiyan, have you asked Isabelle about the Great War?

“Yes... But Garonne told me to listen directly. What the hell is the Great War? ”

If you hear that, your objective to kill Reflexa could collapse. Do you still hear me?

“… if it was meant to collapse that much, we wouldn't have set it up in the first place. Tell me, what is the Great War? ”

Fine. I will tell you the truth by the authority of those who know the whole truth. Look into my eyes.

Be nervous, as Garon said, and look at his yellow glowing eyes.

Whoo-hoo!

At the last moment, my mind became confused and my vision became dark.

“Hmmm...”

I heard something whispering in my ear as if someone woke me up. But I felt so normal that I tried to ignore it.

Whoa! Kill it!

Kuaaaak! Kiheeheeheehee!!

“Oops!”

This time, you hear loud noises that make your ears numb to the point of waking up. When he got up from his seat in a hurry, there was a man with long blonde hair standing in front of him.

There is a handsome man who looks so beautiful that I doubt he is really a person.

“… who? Huh, the sky? ”

“Beware, I am Garon. Kaiyan.”

“Lord Garon? But the appearance...”

I smiled and looked at the man who introduced himself as Garon with suspicious eyes.

“I've only retrieved records from the continent for a moment to tell you the truth. This is what I used to do a lot in the past. ”

“Are you really Lord Garonne? But here... No, why are we in heaven? ”

Where we are now was a sky with clouds floating around, so different from the original underground space.

Even if I don't fly often, the sky is so high that it's not strange even if I'm terrified.

“To make it easier for me to see the situation. Kaiyan, this is Rumbanium. This was the first place the Baryon War ever took place. ”

Let's look down from the cloudy sky according to Garon's gesture, looking down.

Waaaahhhh!!

Kiheeeek!!

Those who appeared to be the owners of the sound that had first been heard were fighting like crazy around a huge castle.

What's slightly unusual is that the battle is not a man-to-man battle.

“The monsters of Havmime? And even the Elves...”

At first glance, an elf who weighs a million, and a human who eats side by side, are battling thousands or tens of thousands of monsters.

It's just as intense as every 10 years for Humans to block waves against monsters.

“Go, Garon, this.... Is this really the Baryon War? ”

“Yes, there were more than tens of thousands of monsters in the passageway that opened in Rumbanium just that day, and the humans and elves who had heard about it and prepared it in advance were working together against them. ”

Like Garon said, the monsters are constantly pouring out of the black abyss instead of the rocky mountains that should be next to the castle.

It looked quite similar to the Abyss Gang he had built in Rumbanium.

“Ancient monsters... But you warned them beforehand? How would Reflexa know that? Did he do this...? ”

I remembered something more in the past when I said I had warned you.

The fact that the Grand Wizard warned the continent before the first monster wave began.

“Yes, you guessed right. The Barion War was orchestrated by Reflex. ”

“Crazy... What the hell is Reflexa up to? After the monster wave and the Baryon War...! ”

Suddenly I had that thought in my head.

Could it be that the purpose of Reflex is to kill every human and xenophobe on the continent?

Otherwise, you wouldn't have done the crazy thing that caused the monster waves to wage the War of the Races and even the Baryon War afterwards.

“It was to not return the gods. Of course, the method was wrong...”

“What are you talking about? Gods... Are you talking about the Gods of Harv Mime? The god of monsters?”

“Kaiyan, did you know that? ”

I asked Garon if he was surprised by my question with his eyes wide open.

“Yes... I heard about it from the Havmime monsters somehow. But was it real, that you stole the gods from the continent of Unicia? ”

“Yes. It was all Reflex's plan. It was possible because he had the ability to plan so well that even the gods were called architects. ”

“No, even Reflexa... stealing a different level of god...”

Should I consider Reflexa's abilities to be that strong, or should I consider stealing a god easier than I thought?

Plus, if the reason the Baryon War started was because he stole God, then he would have taken Garon's power. So you did it when you were weaker than you are now.

“Of course, he didn't do it on his own. Three gods helped me do that. ”

“If you're talking about the three gods...”

“The god of light and war, the god of earth and abundance, the god of fire and punishment, Deacon. I mean the rest of the gods, except for the missing Pwarrin. ”

As soon as I heard the word "three gods," I assumed.

They were the ones who helped Reflexa steal the gods of Harvaim. I just wondered why those guys called God helped me do such strange things.

“Lord Garon! What..."

As soon as I tried to ask him a question, Garon lit up his eyes and pointed down again.

“Kaiyan, look. If you could see why I feared the resurrection of the Baryons even after I sacrificed Elaine, you would understand. ”

“That's... ”

Shhhhh!!

From the black abyss, where monsters poured out at random.

Just watching from the distant sky, something huge, darkening, was coming out of my mind.

Something big grabbed both ends of a massive abyss with a giant hand with sharp fingernails first, and jumped out of the darkness at a rapid rate from the beginning.

“Test subjects? No, Lord Garon? How did Garon.... ”

The appearance of a blacker monster resembles that of Garon and the test subjects, much more than that of the torso.

A head resembling that of a Garonne, composed of snakes and lizards, and four huge wings on the back of a distant specimen. And sharp nails and claws that will pierce anything that rests on both hands and feet.

There's only one difference between him and Garon.

Garon's coat glowed golden, and like the test subjects, he was biting his surroundings in darker shadows than darkness.

“… Deo, what the hell happened? Why does he look like him? ”

Asked with a voice that was less trembling at the horror of watering the heart, Garon opened his mouth, expressing a firm expression.

“Baryon and I... are dragons born by the blessing of the gods who created each world. God is different, but we are the same species. ”

“… crazy. ”
