At the end of the procession were the sun and moon of Romaria, the king and the pope.

Behind the emperor is a guardian knight.

Dennis was waiting for us, wearing a white robe, standing next to the Pope.

“Dennis…?”

Shir makes a puzzled sound and looks at Dennis.

“Why are you so angry?”

“···That guy.”

“What?”

“The one who killed you is the guy…!”

I looked at Dennis, who welcomed me with a selfless smile.

Jules looked at Dennis with murderous eyes.

“So, are you angry?”

I am not.

Dennis, who was with me, was never a villain.

“···Yes.”

“They say they don’t get angry.”

Jules kept his mouth shut in response to my question.

And move forward with your mouth shut.

Hundreds of knights and priests lined up in the throne room.

They look nervously at Jules and Shir.

Dozens of arrows and black dried blood stuck in the body.

Even now, the blood flowing out little by little hangs long and wets the body.

How far did it go that way?

We stood in front of the stairs leading up to the throne room in the throne room.

The King, with his arm resting arrogantly on the armrest, looked at Jules and Shir in a crooked posture.

We also looked up at him.

“First, I apologize for the disrespect my people and soldiers have committed against you.”

The king looked at Jool as if waiting for an answer, but Jool just stared.

However, he doesn’t look nervous.

It seemed like he was just waiting for words. So few seconds.

The taut thread stretches with the king’s sigh.

“Why did you visit Lomaria, which is directly opposite of Junaira?”

“To avoid friction.”

“What friction?”

“My compatriot Baek Seol wants to live a quiet life in the north. Recognize their autonomy and territory.”

The king shrugs and speaks lightly.

“Of course.”

The light answer left everyone in the throne room dumbfounded.

Everyone knows what the king just said.

─Reconciliation with the main enemy that has been fighting for over 100 years.

It was something that should never be said lightly.

“···We’ve been fighting for too long. Now is the time to seek peace.”

Crazy noise follows.

So much so that even the guardian knight behind the king was shaken.

‘Did Jules brainwash you?’

I glanced at Jules. But Jules was angry.

It wasn’t Jules’ doing. This was clearly unnatural.

‘Is this Dennis’s doing?’

But Dennis was equally embarrassed.

“Isn’t that right?”

Jules smiles at the king’s question.

“That’s right.”

Shir was equally embarrassed.

A remark is made that was not agreed upon and that completely destroys all plans made so far.

“···Too many people have died so far.”

“All the instigators of the war died and returned to dust.”

“People who don’t know why they fight have been killing each other.”

The words continue in a complaining tone.

“I always hoped for a day like today.”

“I’m so glad that our hearts are connected.”

King and Jules have smiles on their faces.

The conversation continued as if we were guessing.

The king burst into laughter.

“Isn’t it stupid to drag on for a hundred years for something that could easily end like this?”

Jules also nods.

“······That’s right. It was such a stupid thing to do.”

“Once the war is over, won’t we be able to do more with the enormous manpower and defense budget?”

“That’s right. People will encounter new cultures and realize that the world is easier to live in than they thought.”

Knights, clerks, priests, popes, and priests try to somehow control themselves in this crazy situation.

But there was nothing like that anywhere.

“···We can create a world where everyone is happy.”

It shouldn’t have been like this.

If this superficial reconciliation is made, war will break out again when the Hibi Desert cools down.

Romaria is a country that succeeded the Laobian Empire.

They will clearly show this as their rightful territory.

At least until then, it had to be divided.

“There are no territories in the north anyway. If you want, I’ll give you the whole land.”

“Thank you.”

“Okay. So… who is the white wolf who will become the lord of the land?”

“Baksul doesn’t know what a lord and a territory are.”

“Quuk! Ha ha ha ha ha! Things like that happen, too! It’s okay! Things you haven’t learned in the first place are stupid!”

Jules smiles and looks at the king.

Like that for a while. Jules wipes his smile and looks at the people around him.

“I have something to apologize to all the demihumans of Pangea. If possible, wouldn’t you please pass on my words?”

“Ah! Are you fine. Wait! Secretary! Write it down!”

The scribe panicked and looked at the king.

The Pope also glanced at the king, then gestured to the scribe.

Like that for a while. Jules started speaking.

“I was able to prevent a great war.”

“······?”

Everyone inside the throne room looks at Jool.

“Each of the thirteen servants has something to do.”

“The seven servants of the beginning who created and managed the world. And the six servants who widely benefit humans.”

“However, there is a servant whose identity no one knows.”

“This is Dantalian, the devil of goodness and generosity.”

I was out of breath.

What Jules is trying to do now is what I was trying to do.

Becoming a ‘devil’ for the world.

“Jul! Wait—!”

My body stiffened. Not a single finger moves.

That was stupid! Because Jules had lost his past memories, he spewed out his plan too easily.

If I looked like Jules, Jules would have been thinking the same things as me!

“The devil came from hell.”

“Therefore, the devil’s agent also came from hell.”

“I was a knight. He entered the war to protect his country and died in defeat.”

The same goes for Shirdo and Anne.

‘Do not say! ‘You can’t say it!’

If you say that, Jules’ life will end!

“Hell is full of poor people, and the devil whispers a contract to them.”

“You cannot refuse the devil’s contract. Because it’s so sweet.”

“In that way, the flying devil was saved and ascended to the paradise Pangea.”

please···!

“Those who ascend from hell to paradise wander for a while, but soon realize.”

“He was called because he had something to do.”

“It is to prevent the terrible things we saw in hell from recurring.”

“That is why the devil’s agent is forced to be good and generous.”

in action···!

“250 years ago from now. Eve, who would even tear out her heart and offer it up, was with me.”

“I decided to live only for Eve.”

“But I was blinded by love and forgot my duty.”

“···Life in paradise was simple, but it was so beautiful and precious to me, who lived a life stained with blood.”

Everyone looks at Jules in confusion.

“Romaria was founded, and the natives of Romaria were enslaved.”

“I was a knight. I shouldn’t watch injustice, but I have a precious family.”

“Ewa and I fled to the cold north with our children.”

The king narrows his eyes and glares at us.

It couldn’t be good because his country was being criticized.

“Then I prayed to the servant, and the servant whispered to me.”

“Put a torch on the cradle. Gather the demi-humans.”

“Of course, this is irony. They said that if I didn’t step forward, there was no other way.”

Everyone is watching Jules.

Still, there was nothing I could do.

“I had no choice but to start taking action.”

“But it failed. Because he and Eve were killed by Beritaurus, who was blinded by gold coins.”

“Someone did not want Ajin to be liberated.”

“As an aside, that is why there is no Veritaur in the Unira Alliance.”

Jules is insulting Romaria.

But more than that, he was insulting himself.

“I was born again.”

“The subhumans were still slaves. Nevertheless, I forgot my duty.”

“To take revenge on my Eve, I tried to destroy Lomaria.”

“But I was stopped. I wasn’t the only one who went from hell to paradise, and they didn’t want Pangea to be ruined like hell.”

‘We’re in big trouble!’

Jules’ words are easily revealed when compared to history.

Eventually, they will realize that what Jules said is true!

But… Jules is calm. Very much.

” Having lost everything, only emptiness remains. ”

“My relatives had no choice but to try the worst move I had told them to do.”

“The cradle was burned. Relatives are dead. My Eve died, and even her white bones were cast to dust.”

“I prayed to the devil. Please let me meet my Eve.”

“The devil whispered to me. I will grant your wish, so I can fix what I failed.”

Jules catches his breath.

And then he speaks calmly.

“That is the white wolf.”

─It’s over.

“However, saints are different. Because she is my Eve’s daughter, not me.”

“I fought for Ajin while losing my memory.”

“I have died and been reborn again and again with Eve, and have endlessly died for Ajin.”

“That’s how we got to where we are now.”

Dennis had an admiring expression on his face.

I could tell just by looking at his eyes.

He still holds Jules in high esteem.

“The sadness, fear, and joy of Ain who lost his home are all with me.”

“My memories as a white wolf scolded me.”

“I realized that there is something more precious than love.”

A unique spirit flows from Jules’ body.

“That’s why I’m trying to fulfill my duty even if it’s belated.”

“But it was too late. Those who enslaved Ajin are all dead.”

“Those who were enslaved are all dead.”

“Only people left who don’t know why they are fighting with each other.”

Jules looks at the king.

“I was a knight from hell.”

“I fought for my country, but when I was dying, I thought what a joke.”

“The people who started the war live comfortably, but I didn’t know why they were killing and dying here.”

Some of the drivers are laughing.

Of course, it quickly became quiet due to the solemn atmosphere of the throne room.

“Everyone had family and friends. If we hadn’t met on the battlefield, we could have become friends.”

“That’s why I made a promise. I will look straight at the person I hate.”

“That resolution is an arrow stuck in this body.”

Jules glares at the king.

“Romaria imposed coins and the gold standard on Ain, who did not know gold.”

“They forced me to pay gold as tax even though I didn’t have any gold.”

“Ain, who could not pay his taxes, was taken to the gold mine to extract gold.”

“The A people extracted gold from the gold mine, but the A people who were indigenous people did not receive the gold.”

Eventually, the king, who had been frowning, opens up.

“There seems to be a misunderstanding.”

“We gave them daily necessities and a higher civilization.”

“They said they were bartering. It’s extremely inefficient!”

The king suddenly frowned and glared at Jool.

“It was we, Romaria, who stopped that foolish behavior and improved the quality of life.”

“Tax? Adults get 20 solids per month. The old man was 10 solidus.”

“We threw away our gold by buying useless junk from the demi-humans!”

The founding king would have done so.

Because he was an Earthling.

“It was all a plan to distribute coins to the people.”

“Later, he brought me trash and told me to give him gold!”

“Do you know how hard the founding king worked to embrace them?!”

Jules laughed.

“At that time, a stag with antler was traded for one silver coin.”

“Deer?! There must have been a lot of deer at that time!”

The king shouted carelessly, but this was a big mistake.

The people denied the king in silence, and even Jules laughed at him.

“···Because you lived so comfortably in the castle, you don’t know what’s going on in the world.”

Of course, the king was provocative.

“How dare you insult me──?!”

“That’s why it’s so easy to talk about peace.”

The king’s face turns red.

“···I was doing my duty.”

“But he was murdered by someone.”

“Someone in Rome wanted to enslave Ajin.”

“Someone’s greed caused the 100 Year Cradle Massacre and this war.”

Jules glared at the king.

“···Also, he killed my Eve.”

“I pledged to be shot with dozens of arrows to look straight at the person I wanted to hate.”

“After dying dozens of times, I learned that there is something more important than love.”

“···But it could not be compared to the pain of losing a loved one.”

Jules laughs heartily.

The eyes glanced at me.

‘Crazy bitch.’

Jules smile grew even deeper as I cursed in my heart.

‘···I was going to do it.’

I was planning to take all the criticism from the world and make a bold exit.

I don’t know anyone anyway. If you just leave, it’s over.

But not Juul.

This will spread to Yunaira.

···Jul leaves, carrying the world’s hatred on his shoulders.

“I still love and honor my Eve and remember my children.”

“So, I’ll warn you.”

“The northern part belongs to Baekseol and is the descendant of Na and Eve.”

“I look clearly at the object of my hatred.”

“If you raid the North, everyone involved dies.”

Juul reveals his will to live.

That alone overwhelmed the crowd of hundreds.

Someone even fell down.

Fortunately, that terrible feeling of intimidation did not last long.

“Also, I know that you have no ill will.”

“All I know is that the greed of someone who wanted gold as a parasite on good intentions caused all this tragedy.”

“But you have made too many mistakes.”

After finishing speaking, Jules looked sharply at the audience.

“How did the Holy Laobian Empire fall?”

“It’s greed.”

“You guys were consumed by your own greed and incurred the wrath of your servant.”

“Even when they settled in this land flowing with milk and honey, they showed greed.”

“The result is a great war.”

It was a very offensive remark, and Romaria had to issue an immediate rebuttal.

But you can’t. Hundreds of people were overwhelmed by Jules’ spirit.

“There is a saying in hell:”

“Once is a mistake, twice is a coincidence, and three times is inevitable.”

“You are the second. There is no next time.”

That’s what I said when I persuaded Jules.

‘Because Jules never easily suspected people.’

So, when listing the evidence, I comforted him with words like that.

“Remember what the Holy One, my Eve, who saved you, said before he died.”

“Courtesy, duty, and patience. Think of the crazy king and Heindeer who couldn’t do that.”

“If you still want to do it, go for it. I will come find you.”

Jules finishes speaking and turns around.

Shir also turned around late. It was the same for me too.

but.

“Dantalian’s agent.”

The Pope, who had kept his mouth shut, caught Jules’ footsteps.

The elderly Pope was smiling kindly and looking at Jules.

“I’m so curious that I can’t help but ask. So what happened to your Eve?”

“It came back to me.”

The Pope was looking at me.

It is unknown what kind of servant he received the blessing from.

But I knew it intuitively.

“Are you saying that your Eve also came from hell?”

“Okay. All Dantalian agents come from hell.”

“You said that Dantalian’s agents are forced to be good and generous. But…”

The Pope laughs awkwardly.

Yet, his eyes were criticizing Jules.

“The traces of you and the saints are far from good and generous, even to say the least.”

“Good and evil are like the front and back of a piece of paper. Even your goodness is evil to someone.”

“Then what is the good between you and the saint?”

Jules answered the Pope’s question without hesitation.

“What we believe is right.”
