1.

The speculation was fulfilled and the full moon passed. A lot has happened in the meantime. We know the Emperor of the Empire. Between the empire and the tower, there are many treaties. However, I have pushed back such an upheaval in history.

I did what I had to do first.

I still have my own story to tell.

“Sparkle.”

[Yes, sir, the sparkle says,]

Raviel and my bedroom.

A huge bed holds a sword.

“Swallow.”

I once tore my lover's heart out.

A blade that imprisons this world for ten days on end.

Origin gum (31048).

Towards the monk, my sword vomited white.

[Goddess of Protection absorbs her fragments.]

The white light touches the blade of origin. Urrgh! The red aura blooms from the Origin Blade immediately. A red fog erupts from the blade as if trying to defy the light that was about to devour you.

[The Origin Sword is just stunning.]

[The Idol Sword persuades the Sisters.]

White and red fog topples. However, the fog was slightly darker. When the red tried to dominate the white, another color (white) flowed from my sword.

[The Sword of Compassion also persuades the Sisters.]

The black relic. The second piece of the sword I collected was heavy.

The tide is reversed. The white light has eaten away the fog, and the black water has dug up the fog. The red mist fades quickly.

[The Origin Sword is appalled at the betrayal of its sisters.]

[The Longevity Blade won't work because you can't serve the owner, not LeFanta Aikim.]

I opened my mouth.

“I have a pretty good idea why Le Fanta Aikim killed those constellations. ”

The red fog stopped.

There were no eyes in the fog, but I looked at the fog as if I was looking at it. The calm tension sank between us.

“I couldn't understand it at first. Through this world. The constellations invade and invade other worlds of their own accord. Ignore the indigenous opinions. ”

The same is true of [Gallery Leader], although it is in different forms.

The interest of the librarian is not to rule the world, but to observe people.

Designate [Character] Human beings that are still alive. Observe their story. The librarian is like any other constellation in that he cuts the world to suit his own taste.

That, in a word.

“Complaints.”

Violence.

“Repantha Aikim is the one who hammered the emperor." I'd rather kill all the constellations than use them for power. ’That's roughly the plan. There may have been constellations in this world, but Le Fanta Aikim would have killed him. ”

[.......]

“But your original owner made a mistake. ”

I reaped the edge of the blade.

“Another star is born in a world where the constellation is dead. Behold! In the sealed continent of the Goddess of Protection, the Fall Rain Demon King was born. There's a silver plated heart in the world. I'm just saying, your master's not solving problems, he's causing more trouble! ”

[LeFanta Aikim…….]

“If not, say no. ”

A blade wrapped in red mist. The red sword was silent.

“Perhaps my career has paid off more than your master's. Yeah, well, your master went through a lot of trials, learned a lot more than I did, and he thought about it, and he probably took on the business of being lethal. But there's something I can tell you for sure. ”

I said it with all my heart.

“If you've done your job, you're responsible for the end. ”

[.......]

“An eternal winter has come in one world because your master killed the constellation at will. Those who lived in that world were disgraced as moving corpses.... Even if Le Fanta Aikim has noble ideals, it won't be forgiven. Take responsibility."

Let's do it.

The red mist gathers in one place. After a while, the fog took on a human form.

A child bitten with blood all over him.

[My name is Origin.]

A sword with the appearance of a red child opened its lips.

[It's my role to listen to people's origins.]

[Repantha Aikim prayed. ‘I will kill all the constellations, so that they will never be swayed again.' His origins are noble. It's heavy. It's massive. So I entrusted myself to Le Fanta Aikim.]

[What is your origin, mortal?]

I looked down at the child.

“Never run away from anything. ”

And I said,

“I will not ignore what is happening in front of my eyes. I'm not making excuses. You're responsible for what I said, and you're not responsible for what I did. I will not ignore what I think is wrong, saying, 'The world is always like that.' As long as my sword touches and my life continues. ”

[Ahh……]

The red child looks up at the air.

[The way to hell is always packed in good faith.]

[All I can do is bless your good intentions. Just being with your hell.]

It was a long shot.

[My ability is a test.]

[If a man's heart is pierced by me, his wish is tested. Was that really a true wish? Did he want to fulfill all his wishes, even if he sacrificed everything?]

[It is my cursed ability to finally make myself give up my wish.]

The child becomes a red mist and scatters.

[Our new master.]

[Please prosper in hell for a long time.]

Glug.

The fog was drawn by my sword.

[The existence of the Goddess of Protection becomes even more evident.]

I couldn't breathe.

“Phew.”

This concludes my work before moving on to the next stage. There's still a lot to talk about with the Empire... but that's the realm of politics. My wife will do more than me.

“Is it over?”

After coming out of the bedroom, Raviel, who was waiting at the door, asks. One of the maids was escorting him.

“Yes, Raviel. It's over. There are no more constellations or fragments of constellations that can mess up the world. At least not for a while. ”

“Even though three apostles tried to form an alliance, they failed miserably. Rest assured, no one will dare attempt an invasion after seeing your innocence. ”

"......."

The maid standing next to Raviel gives you a shivering look. Of course, it was not because of the identity of the maid who was escorting Laviel, but because she invaded this world--- the Baron of the Pearls.

“... I think you're telling me to listen. Duke, is this my own delusion? ”

The baron mutters. She is secretly [an infatuation with a sledgehammer, taken over by a cunning demon]. not the perpetrator, but the victim.

However, the rumor that the Devil possessed her was an infamy, so I decided to clean up her dishonor while serving Raviel for a while. It must have been painful for you to want to marry the Crown Prince.

Well, even now, gold peddlers seem to be seriously concerned about marriage.

“You have bright ears. I was right to ask you to listen. Regret how foolish you were, my dear. If you wish to repent properly, I will use the Shrine's connections to restore your honor. Until then, shut up and work for us. ”

"Ugh…"

The golden thread in the maid's dress bit my lips. I'm sorry, but she will never go against us. As soon as I reap [reincarnation], the golden thread will be broken.

"......."

This is the end I reached.

I slowly opened the door, looking at the landscape.

“I'm going to move on to the next stage. Raviel.”

“Well, I guess I should. ”

Raviel makes eye contact with me.

“I'd like to follow you around the world, but the Empire needs me. As I have my work, so will you. Make all the fuss you want, Duke. Come back anytime you want to be comforted because you're tired. I'm here. ”

“Yes, but…. ”

I said, thinking a little.

“Well, the 20th floor of the tower is my land. I want to build a house just for the two of us. If it's okay with Raviel. ”

“Oh? Of course. From now on, will it be the Mainland Family of our couple? I will not be the Duke of Ivania in the new house, but only your companion. ”

Raviel smiles.

She read my mind as if it were natural.

“I look forward to it. ”

Raviel pulls the handkerchief out of his arms. Silver thread embroidery is placed on the white. She opened my hand and quietly placed the handkerchief.

This one.

“This is the handkerchief I usually carry. I used magical powers to fix perfume permanently on a handkerchief. ”

“Perfume?”

“You.”

Raviel rises up and whispers in my ear.

“It's the same lily scent I felt in my first crush. ”

"......."

“You touch the handle of the dagger every time you try to calm yourself. It's a bad habit. Throw it away. Whenever you feel overwhelmed, instead of touching the sack, smell the spiced scent on my handkerchief. ”

Ahh.

“Confucius, it is not your misfortune to leave you alone. It's not pain. I hope not. Memory and love for me. I hope happiness keeps you as you are. Will you accept my wishes? ”

“…… Yes. ”

I swallowed the cold, drumstick in my heart.

“Yes, I will, Raviel. ”

“Love you."

“I love you."

I overlapped my lips with Raphael. Hoping this moment will last forever. But our shadow soon fell, and I said,

"---Transmission."

The light closed my eyes.

2.

The next moment I blinked, I was already at the Great Library.

I saw hunters waiting for me back at the library in advance.

“Welcome. Four Kings.”

On their behalf, the Black Dragon Juice opens its mouth. As soon as I saw the black dragon liquor, I realized she wasn't feeling well. Unlike the word "welcome," the black dragon owner frowned a lot.

“Uh, what's going on? ”

I wish I could say, “No problem." ”

Black Dragon Juju sighs.

“Yes, something happened. That's pretty serious, too. ”

Then it was a little strange. There were only top rankers around, including the Black Dragon Wine. It was only normal to see hunters like the apothecary.

“Wait. Where are the other hunters? ”

“We had something to talk about. We were bitten away. From now on, what we're about to talk about is classified. Well, the scene of the conversation here must also be live on the tower.... ”

The voice of the Black Dragon grows louder and louder. Unfortunately.

“What the hell is going on? ”

“Aha.”

The person who answered was not the Black Dragon Master, but the Inquisitor. He had taken off the dress he had worn on the last stage and was wearing his usual priest's uniform.

“Just to put it in perspective, yes. Master! You've succeeded too much! ”

“Yes?”

“Think about it. In [The Thousand Drinks List], the Four Kings showed a keen appreciation for their masters! The scene of respecting nothing and obeying the Christians made many hunters' hearts pound by itself. [Cheers] After it was cleared, thousands of martial artists from the outside world entered the tower every day for a while! ”

The paladin succeeded this time.

“Someone is broadcasting live footage of the tower to the outside world. No, actually, we allowed the dissemination. The king. The way you succeed produces enormous advertising effects by itself. There's no need to hesitate. ”

“By the way, ”

The Earl pays his debts.

“Maybe a little. I think we were too modest. ”

“What if I thought it was worth it...? ”

“You. No, the ripple power of your [icon]. ”

What are you talking about? You don't know the language, so you look at your colleagues. Everyone was making a serious face. The only Inquisitor who was always smiling, serious or not, responded.

“113,655 people. ”

“Yes?”

“That's the number of people who entered our tower yesterday! ”

"......."

I didn't understand what the Inquisitor said.

After a while, I realized that Inquisitor Ethan said, "Yesterday."

“Yesterday, in one day? ”

“Yes! If there's a war going on in the outside world or the country's destruction, this population will be brought in. However, there have been no battles lately, except small local wars! Ahahaha! My country didn't perish either! [Normal] And yet, this mouthpiece is made! ”

“It's a flyer I got from the outside world. ”

The Earl handed me the flyer.

My face was painted like a presidential election poster.

Below it, there was a sentence like this:

+

Make the King of Death our King!

Head for Utopia!

+

I slowly opened my mouth.

“The king of death...? ”

“Of course, your tinnitus. It means the Four Kings. These kinds of flyers are being distributed in countless places. In case I'm not mistaken, we're not the ones behind this. The people of the outside world are making their own. ”

"......."

I don't know how to react.

“I don't know if you'd have guessed it from the flyer, ”

The paladin smiles bitterly.

“It is rare to use flyers as a means of promoting the world these days. Do you understand what I'm saying? It's only when I want to tell people who don't use the Internet that I use flyers. ”

“…… What are you talking about? ”

“Humans in areas where the Internet doesn't work. Poor people in poor countries. Conflict zones. Military reserves. Numerous slums and refugees are entering the tower. Leaving their [country] and [nationality] behind and coming to the Tower of Babel, living in the outside world. ”

Like we used to, "the paladin said.

"Hmm."

The serpent folds his arms.

“Them. He came into the tower wearing a black hat or a black top. I'm going to join the martyrdom... but if I say it more harshly, I just saw you and came in. ”

“It's not just the poor and refugees. ”

Black Dragon Juju said.

“A lot of rich people have come in. Scientists, sociologists, fellow professors. [I will help create a new society in the tower.] ”

“Kim Gong-ja.”

The guild masters looked at me.

“You didn't just attack stages. In the outside world, no. Everywhere people want a hero. The courage to resist obstacles. Respect for Humans. Commitment to love. He said," No one excites people more than a hero who devotes his life to goodwill. ”

The Black Dragon Master took out the smartphone screen and showed it to me.

“You have become our flag. ”

There was always a hologram floating in the center of Babylon Square, captured on the screen.

That was the new position the tower gave me.

My heart was pounding like crazy.

“Four Kings."

The black dragon took a smartphone and looked straight at my face. She was serious. More than I've ever seen.

“Are you ready to be our king? ”
