Now, the ancient races I haven’t met are two in the sea, five in the mountains, and two in the snow fields.

The person in the snowy field is Arpelius, Adele’s ancestor. That’s why I didn’t pay much attention to it.

In that case, it is clear that we should go to the sea first, if that is the case…

“The tyrant, he is active, in the sea.”

Sea, tyrant. After picking up a few of those short keywords, Terrasia, who was enjoying tea together, guessed the identity.

“If there is a tyrant of the sea… the wise king, it is definitely him. Although his name is not written, he is said to be the king of the mermaids and at the same time a tyrant who rules the sea. For example, he hunts sea dragons and controls everyone who lives in the sea. . Because he brought about the golden age of mermaids, he is a wise king, and at the same time, he is called a tyrant.”

“I see.”

In short, isn’t he just a king who is good at politics and created a powerful country?

But it’s a mermaid.

It certainly makes me wonder how great a mere nation of mermaids would be among the high-ranking races such as dragons and demons in ancient times, to the point of being ranked among the great powers.

‘Whether I like it or not, in the end only the ancient races that are all related to Damian came forward.’

Although many of the ancient beings I have encountered so far are humans, the original number of them is one of many races, so it is not the case that they are the most.

There are three dragons, and that’s because there were many strong men in those days.

There are two demons…if you include Petrania. This too will be similar to a dragon.

I thought the rest might be scorpions or mermaids.

It was as if among the powerful people of that time, only those related to Damian were released.

Petrania, what are you planning and what are you trying to do?

“Hmm…Is your father by any chance?”

In the evil religion, there are only three people who call me father.

They were Abel, Veronica, and Descartes.

In this case, it seemed to be Abel.

“Okay, what’s going on?”

“We have succeeded in subduing this ancient race. Among those on the mountain, we have succeeded in eliminating three people who faintly feel the energy that my father mentioned.”

“Yeah, that was really nice of you.”

Looking at Descartes’ case, just because his energy was weaker than that of others, it doesn’t seem like he was actually weaker than him, but fortunately, he seemed to have succeeded.

“Jeon Saint and Lilin, who joined the church this time, have helped us a lot.”

I am a saint….

It seems like you want to solidify your position.

He is also a saint, so although he calls me father, he does not call himself a saint.

Yes, that immaturity is probably still cute.

“Also, this time, Marie, she received the power of the World Tree and completely stood at the center of life.”

…You received the power of the World Tree?

The flower in my room… No, since it maintains its strength, is that flower still fine?

By the way, the reason why the World Tree didn’t do it because it wanted to inherit it, but because it felt like Mari just took it away, isn’t it?

“Okay, that’s good news.”

“So, I think we can sort out those on the mountainside side, but the snowy field side…”

“I’ll take care of that too after I return from the sea.”

It’s a pity that I can’t meet the people on the mountain side, but it would be helpful, and if I could communicate with them, Abel would have brought them, even if Marie didn’t know about them.

If you think about it, it was quite a good thing that things progressed so quickly.

“I have left the rest to you, so please go to the sea with me for the first time in a while.”

I guess these days, I’m so busy chasing after ancient races and all that that I don’t have a lot of opportunities to spend time with them.

Everyone seemed to want to go out with me for the first time in a long time.

“Yeah, okay. Let’s all go together.”

Yeah, I wonder what I’m going to do if literally everyone comes in and looks at me with those eyes.

Still, if things went wrong, it was fortunate that there were powerful people who could destroy the kingdom, no matter how many mermaids there were.

With this level of power, I would be able to get out safely even if I couldn’t move right away.

“I think this is the first time since the desert that everyone has been together like this.”

It looked like they were going on a complete trip, including Beatrice.

There were quite a few interesting things happening back then too.

Cecilia, Ryu, and Beatrice took time out of their busy schedule to come here, so they should really enjoy it like a trip.

I also gave each child an accessory, such as a ring or necklace.

“Just in case you guys are in danger, I made it so you can move next to me at that moment, so it would be a good idea to keep it together.”

“Oh, the evil god finally gave me a ring. Is it okay to think that the evil god has finally accepted my heart?”

“Mari, you are still… saying this is nonsense. Marie, it seems you are always doing that to your father.”

No matter how you think about it, Lillin and Descartes know about Marie.

Still, acting like it doesn’t work is probably due to Mari’s threats.

Actually, I don’t think it’s that important whether she’s ancient or not.

Of course, it was clear that Damian would have placed a ban on Marie, who had not placed the seal or escaped the seal on her own.

Maybe that’s why even though she has a lot to say to me, she can’t.

I don’t know why she didn’t tell me that she was a member of the evil religion from ancient times until now, but I guess that’s what she meant by not revealing her true feelings.

“Okay, then, let’s go. First of all, Marie, Adele, and Veronica will help control if a fight breaks out inside, and Lillin and Descartes… should consult for a while.”

“Counseling… If your father says that, I wonder just how serious it is.”

I brought Descartes and Lillin, two ancient races, to a room inside the airship.

Descartes was still walking slowly, his bones rattling, and Lilin was using her unique way of speaking.

“…Can you hear who I sacrificed in the past you are talking about?”

No matter how much you think about it, isn’t it strange?

What kind of being was I in ancient times that I sealed and banned all evil religions and countless other races?

And this way of speaking.

“I know I can’t talk about that. So have I used this tone in the past?”

“Yes, that’s right. Father always spoke softly in that tone, as if he was admonishing us or reassuring us.”

…This way of speaking is just the way I use it to be seen as a god.

Did it just happen by chance, or did you end up using this too, Damian, because your subconscious was telling me this?

As expected, the original work was not believable at all.

In the end, the original work only described Damian as a vicious villain who was ruthless and did not care about his allies, and there were no scenes or descriptions of Damian.

There were only a few lines about his appearance and a few lines about what he did.

In the end, even though Damian has the name of an evil god, he is incredibly kind and leads others to an altruistic path… no.

In the end, isn’t Damian a being who drives the world to the brink of destruction, brings about death, and has a non-altruistic purpose that Rebecca herself acknowledged?

“…It’s difficult. I can’t understand what my past self was doing.”

“However, Orphes, among the many prophecies he made, the most prophecy was about his father. He said that the later generations and the ancient times would come together and eventually regain glory.”

When Orpheus first encountered me, what did he say?

You have regained your glory. That’s roughly what I meant.

regain glory He said that the first time he met me, and since I heard about the prophecy he made in the past, it didn’t seem like a coincidence.

It feels like the gears are turning in the grand framework of destiny.

….I have a bad feeling.

“Regain glory.”

Does that mean that at this time, I will gain the power to kill those that the Spirit Kings spoke of?

Mari inherited the power of the World Tree.

Descartes and Lillin, powerful people whose views on the world were so powerful that they joined the evil deity religion.

Adel became a dragon lord, and the warrior also came to the side of the evil religion.

…Isn’t it strange that the power is growing exponentially stronger?

It’s as if they are telling us to prepare in advance for a huge war that will happen soon.

“Lilin, I will not entrust you with a special mission. You must find Petrania, a fellow demon.”

“I liked her, by the evil god’s side.”

You liked being around me?

“…Descartes, can you hear what this means?”

“She is one of the executives of the Evil God Cult, and at the same time, she is someone who suddenly disappeared from the Evil God Cult. We don’t know why, but the fact that she disappeared at a time when it was most dangerous and most in need of help was a clear betrayal….”

“…Okay, I think I understand somehow.”

Descartes’ hostility toward the devil.

It is unknown how Petrania left the evil religion, but she is resurrecting the ancient race.

An act of betrayal against me? No, you won’t know until you see the face.

“First, go down.”

Lilin jumped out of the window.

I looked at her back and then came out of the room again.

I’ve gotten enough information, but the closer I get to something, the instinctive sense that I shouldn’t approach it collides with the instinct that seems to be taking over my head to open it.

I felt dizzy and nauseous.

“…Okay, let’s go quickly.”

I said looking out the window.

The air was cool.
