======================

The pitch-black space, in which all color had disappeared, presented a sense of strangeness that made one feel nauseous.

It’s natural.

The disaster god of war has descended on this world.

Just seeing the great face made me break into a cold sweat. And the pressure was so heavy that even breathing out was burdensome.

He raised his head with a very nervous look.

Then the girl sitting on the throne of the corpse pile smiled kindly.

-For a guy with a strict budget, I think he prepared quite a bit. I’ll praise you.

The long flowing red hair was reminiscent of the devastation burning the battlefield.

Also, her eyes were as black as black gunpowder.

War.

The main culprit that will one day destroy humanity.

A disaster god who made the battlefield filled with shrill screams and countless bullets raining down on him as his castle, crushing them horribly and using the mangled corpses as his throne.

I looked up at Jae-eok, who had taken the form of a beautiful girl.

“How have you been?”

-not bad. I was a little bored after the tribal war ended… Fortunately, it’s fun again.

Are you talking about the battle between the Baltarian Empire and the cultist forces?

Or does it refer to the fierce competition that is still taking place across the continent?

Either way it’s terrible.

I felt uncomfortable seeing Lière smiling genuinely and cheerfully.

“I have something to ask.”

-good night. I feel good now. I also like the sincere offerings made by the loyal apostle.

The goods being transported by dragging the cart were gold and silver treasures provided by the Holy Emperor.

Gold coins that give off a sparkling shine.

A noble ornament adorned with various beautiful gems.

It was enough to satisfy my infinite greed.

As if to prove it, Liere clearly showed interest in gold and silver treasures. The God of Disaster had a very greedy personality, proving that war was a foolish act triggered by greed and greed.

“The misfortune of tyranny and the misfortune of starvation… . I want to know the whereabouts of those who were defeated in the distant past.”

-Hmm.

Is it because of an ominous prophecy that will one day descend on this world and destroy humans?

Many heroes who were concerned about the fulfillment of the prophecy made noble sacrifices to subdue the evil. And Gael, the Earthmother, who taught him how to subdue the misfortune of Mugo, was elevated to the position of sole god.

‘It’s a really funny story. The noble act of suppressing evil spirits to protect the survival of humanity has now become the culprit in hastening the end of the world… .’

A bitter laugh came out.

It’s a contradiction.

Everything from start to finish was contradictory.

The sacrifices and efforts to protect humanity unfortunately brought about the end of the world. This is because, at the same time as the wealthy were subdued, the world gradually lost its sustainability.

-Tyranny and starvation are probably the puppets of the Earth Mother, that damn bitch.

“What?”

What does that mean?

puppet?

You mean it wasn’t subdued or sealed?

Without a doubt, tyranny would have been subdued by the warriors of the Ebelas Empire. And I heard that Kia was sealed by Bellasiel, the adopted daughter of the Earth Mother and the Supreme Archangel.

But that wasn’t true.

What was believed to be true until now was nothing more than a smokescreen cleverly created by someone.

The disaster gods of tyranny and the disaster gods of famine remain as ghosts of the distant past, but they have not met their eternal end. I was breathing heavily while listening to Liere’s explanation.

-If Mugo’s wealth had truly disappeared, the concepts of tyranny and starvation would have completely disappeared.

“… … .”

-But tyranny and starvation are being committed all over the continent right now. The foolish masses are still struggling with tyranny, and the masses, robbed of hope for tomorrow by plagues and natural disasters, are starving.

“… That’s right.”

I was worried with my arms crossed.

Liere watched silently with an interesting expression on his face.

“Why didn’t the Earth Mother seal away tyranny and starvation?”

-Rather than sealing it somewhere in the world, it would be safer to use it as a puppet with its true nature completely removed. The Earth Mother is a coward who values her own safety above all else. Numerous safety measures must have been put in place to prevent miscreants from being released in the future.

Many people, including me, were deceived by the Earth Mother.

And tyranny and hunger are controlled by the Earth Mother.

How much should I trust?

I glanced at Liere, who had a meaningful expression, with a suspicious look.

-Uh-huh! You’re so cocky, Edanant. How dare you doubt the oracle! If you don’t want to be punished by the nether world, offer up the sweet macarons you gave me last time!

“Did you like it that much?”

-what… . It tasted cheaply sweet, but it wasn’t that bad.

“When I return to the empire, I will give you a mountain of macarons.”

When he gave a definite answer, Liere, who was standing on the throne of the corpse pile, stamped his feet in joy. As he adopted the appearance of a child, even his mental age seemed to have become younger.

Wouldn’t it have been better if only macarons were offered instead of gold and silver treasures and accessories?

Next time, I’ll just offer macaroons.

“… Wait.”

-Why are you doing that, Edanant?

When I was thinking about trivial things for a moment,

A question that must be asked to Liere unconsciously arose.

“Then what happened to the disaster god of death?”

-Of course he’s alive.

“No… ! I saw him disappear! He’s definitely dead!”

-I told you, Edanant. The wealth of innocence is not extinguished. It just disappears from the public eye for a while.

I saw it clearly.

The end of death that was destroyed by the Earth Mother’s divinity.

The scepter of the midnight sun.

Didn’t that end the Demon King’s immortality?

The author who wrote the work also declared in the final chapter that absolute evil was brought to an end by Maximilian and Beatrice. That’s why I couldn’t accept Liere’s words.

-You cheater bitch… No, I tricked you.

why.

The words rose up to my throat.

However, no further questions and answers were allowed. This is because the dark shadows that had been devouring the surrounding colors began to slowly disappear.

-Edanant.

The God of Disaster, sitting on the throne of the corpse pile, spoke.

-Free the invincible genius who has been reduced to a puppet. Even in order to prevent the end of the world… We must destroy the world established by the one God.

“I also have a heart like a chimney… I don’t know the whereabouts of the treasure or how to free it.”

-Financials tend to be attracted to each other. I’ll see you in the near future. Maybe we’ve already met.

“… … .”

The question and answer ended with that.

The god of disaster has disappeared.

There is only a pile of corpses that served as a throne.

I was standing there in a daze, as if I was dreaming.

However, through the gold and silver treasures that disappeared in an instant, I was able to realize that it was not a fantasy.

* * *

Ludmilla was worried that cult forces might invade the Baltarian Empire. This was because impatience had reached its peak due to the successive raids by the cultist forces.

Did the Earth Mother help?

Even though I left the ecliptic for a while, nothing happened.

Upon hearing the Holy Knight’s report, the princess sighed in relief and turned around. Even though he came all the way to Boemon Kingdom, his complexion was somewhat dark, probably because he was disappointed that he could not meet Edanant.

“E, Edanant!”

“… Ludmilla?”

When the flame-fluttering red dragon spreads its wings,

Ludmilla miraculously met Edanant, who returned in a hurry.

It was a completely unexpected reunion.

Ludmilla’s face, which had been showing regret for him, brightened brightly.

“Are there any injuries?! The warrior Maximilian and… Didn’t you fight to the death with your brother?”

“Rumors spread very quickly. Rumors are already spreading throughout the imperial capital.”

No matter what, it’s a fight to the death.

That’s a bit of an exaggeration.

no,

It was a very exaggerated story.

If the warmonger and the warrior had fought sincerely, the Kingdom of Boemon would have disappeared from the map without a trace. Edanant sighed at the exaggerated rumor and smiled faintly as he looked at Ludmilla, who was full of worry.

“I’m fine.”

“Gear, you are really… You always cause me worry!”

The princess pouted her lips, showing an uncomfortable look.

Edanant expressed his disapproval.

“It was not my intention at all to cause concern. That’s what happened in the end.”

“Following the sword saint Regnas, the hero Maximilian appears… . It’s a series of accidents every time.”

Ludmilla checked that Edanant was safe and turned around. It was an expression of dissatisfaction that they did not want to see the man who always worried them for a while.

I need to release my anger somehow.

Edanant, who instinctively sensed a crisis, stretched out both hands and hugged Ludmilla from behind.

Whisper-.

We overlapped our bodies at the same time as the sound of our collars brushing together.

Then Ludmila reacted in surprise.

“E, edanant… !”

“Sorry. For always causing me worry.”

I didn’t know you would do this.

Ludmilla’s face instantly heated up at Edanant’s bold expression of affection.

The red eyes shook dizzyingly.

It seemed as if he would spew fire from his mouth at any moment to dissipate the heat concentrated in his face and chest.

“Ah… ! Ugh! Ugh, ahhh!”

Ludmilla’s shoulders became stiff.

And instead of hot flames, strange exclamations kept pouring out of her mouth.

“… … .”

Meanwhile, the silver-haired saint who was watching the scene carefully stretched out her hands.

A thunderbolt with a thunderous sound was shaking in his thin grasp.
