The 31st Piece Turns the Tables

Episode 568

Fuhuaaaaaaaaa!

Lane’s pupils have already relaxed.

Karen pulled out the dawn that was stuck in his body.

Whioooooo…

Dawn returns to Karuna.

Coooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Lane fell backwards on the spot. And no movement could be found on him…

only ashes flying.

The ash that only they can see.

It was left behind by the sun that had just fallen.

“Ah… ah….”

Karen put her hand on Lane’s chest and cried.

“Ah ah ah ah ah!”

Are you sick?

Are you suffering?

The tear ducts seemed to have burned out from constant stimulation. Rather, this state of constant tears is almost peaceful.

The moment my tears dried, I felt like heavy reality and emotions would come rushing in.

“… You know, Karuna.”

“… huh.”

“What are we fighting for now?”

“….”

“What are we… for….”

“Sister.”

“Where did it go wrong…?”

Tsuzuzuzutsu…

The white tree’s power over them became stronger, and the area of white hair that occupied part of the hair became slightly wider.

Montra’s Taeyang Lane collapsed here today. To his favorite successors.

“… I need to meet Jin.”

Karen swept Lane’s dead eyes closed.

“We have to meet. “If he was… he would tell me.”

She struggled to come to her senses.

“For what reason, what should we do? He’ll tell you everything. Right, Karuna?”

“….”

Karuna hesitated at the question that was difficult to answer readily. Even more so because I know that Karen said these words to help her endure this whole situation.

I just hoped she wouldn’t break down like this. Because of that, I cowardly agreed to her words.

“That’s right, Jin will answer everything.”

“Yes… he is the king we once served.”

She smiles brightly.

“… I’m looking forward to our reunion. Right, you too?”

“… huh.”

“I’m sure it will be fun.”

She was fooling herself.

But if it meant walking a little further, I had to do it.

It was the only response Karuna could give for her sister.

Sigh…

Karen wakes up over Lane’s body. She looked at the body for a moment, then turned around and said:

“Wait, Lane. We will definitely save everyone. Then it will be okay. “Everything… will be okay.”

Hypnosis continues.

Even as they continued to walk down the corridor beyond the banquet hall.

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…

Karen walked with her hand holding the greatsword hanging down and scraping the floor with her sword.

The sound was not very good, but Karuna was also lost in thought and was oblivious.

“You know, what kind of expression will they greet us with?”

“….”

“When we broke up, I couldn’t even say goodbye properly. Karuna too… and me too.”

“I don’t know.”

The scenery seen at first glance was quite familiar.

When I walked around here, I took those days for granted.

As always, the ten guardians maintained their dignity while hiding their smiles.

I have no memories of cloudy days.

Only memories of sunny days remain.

“…Karen.”

“huh.”

“Here…”

Karen approached Karuna.

What he pointed to was a window with a clear view of the outside of the castle.

Darkness all over.

I saw a light in the distance.

Allied forces are still fighting.

However, their light has decreased significantly compared to the beginning.

Most of the people I knew at least by name were probably dead.

And yet they are fighting their fight.

“… let’s go.”

“okay.”

They stand in front of a closed door.

There was no need to take a deep breath.

Because it’s going to get messy anyway.

Every single decoration on the door caught my eye. This is a great part that I didn’t know about. I was left with regret. Why wasn’t I able to fully appreciate this all those years ago?

Regret is an invisible tail that follows humans forever.

“I’m opening it.”

“… huh.”

Karen held the left door and Karuna held the right door, and they opened the doors together.

Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss…

air and air come into contact and turn into breath.

iced coffee.

I could smell his scent.

Even if I close my eyes, cover my ears, and have my hands and feet tied, I can always think of this scent.

“….”

Daejeon is grand, but has an ordinary structure. No, it was definitely an ordinary structure in the past.

Now part of the ceiling had collapsed, vomiting a huge amount of darkness through it.

Gooooooooooo…

It’s the first guardian star.

The first guardian star was creating the darkness that covered the entire continent here.

And, excluding the first guardian star, eight guardian stars were lined up, four on each side.

They filled the area in front of the throne where the emperor’s people should have been lined up.

Whioooooo…

this is amazing.

Rajin, the last guardian saint of Montra, is also here, so all the guardian saints are gathered in one place.

And a throne with nine guardian stars. There is someone sitting there.

And it’s alive.

It’s definitely alive.

“….”

The emperor who ruled the sun.

Jean Audem Montra.

He stared at the twins with clear eyes.

With that, Karen realized.

No matter what I hear from him, nothing will change.

That’s why you shouldn’t hesitate.

I have to say it now.

I’m sure Karuna feels the same way.

Clang…

The sword is heavy.

But I lifted it in time.

The two swords headed forward and aimed at Jin.

The old king they served.

The first words of the reunion had to be clear.

“I’m here to keep a long-held promise.”

“Jin Audem Montra our king. …our friend.”

– Think about it someday when you become the strongest knight in the empire.

– … article?

– Yes, I will gladly give my life then. A chance to destroy this empire… with your own hands.

Yes.

Maybe everything was planned from the beginning. Maybe destiny isn’t such a difficult word.

It’s just keeping an old promise.

Jin said in a heavy voice.

“… I was waiting.”

“….”

“You.”

Uninvited guests were welcome.

Jin looked up into space.

“I saw the future.”

“jin.”

“A future of life where everything has disappeared and nothing is left behind.”

It seemed like he also wanted to talk.

“Should we turn away or fight? “Is it possible to live with the future ahead of us covered?”

Jin tried to resolve the doubts of his old friends.

“That was the only option I was given. “A better choice could not have been made.”

“That…”

Karen said in a hard tone.

As if angry.

“At best… is that the reason why so many lives were lost?”

“….”

“So many lives caught up in you! A life that had to die without knowing why!”

“I ask you a question, knight.”

Jin did not back down.

He was the one who made that choice even though he knew for a long time that it was wrong, so he was more resolute than any other famous swordsman.

“Do you respect all life in the same way?”

“What is that…”

“A newborn foal, a grass bug, a human, and even a monster of a different race that can never be compatible.”

Jin continued speaking.

“Everything that lives and breathes has life. But you will weigh the lives they have and the choices they make.”

“….”

“Is it different from being human?”

It is a question of origin.

“Some are murderers, some are prostitutes, some are vagabonds, some are soldiers, some are laborers, some are vagabonds, some are widows, some are…”

Jin paused and spoke again.

“Have you listened to everyone in the world? Probably not. Decide the order of importance based on your own standards. “Humans cannot deny this.”

“I…”

If even a speck of falsehood is mixed into the answer, it loses meaning. So Karen chose silence instead of answering.

“Just because a mayfly doesn’t have much time left, is a day in the life of an insect more valuable than a day in the life of a vain human being? Do you dare to cut it? “Respecting everything means not respecting everything.”

It also cannot be denied that Jin’s choice led to cruelty.

“Making one choice is followed by countless choices. The Emperor measures everything. But is that always right? No, it’s not always right. “If you hesitate, you will never be able to choose.”

“….”

“An emperor must make the most important choice.”

he says

“The emperor of an empire is not the one who chooses everything, but the one who makes the most important choices.”

“So the result of your choice… was the destruction of the empire?”

“It was not a choice for the people of the empire. “It was for the sake of life on this earth.”

Right choice.

What is the right choice?

“It was the only choice. “It was a simple problem in which neither good nor evil could intervene.”

If every choice is criticized, is it right to choose nothing?

But that too would be an illusion.

Choosing nothing also means choosing.

Jin chose.

That is why he became the worst and worst emperor in human history.

“Indeed… you are amazing, Your Majesty. Are you going to become a god?”

“I won’t hesitate if it’s necessary for future work.”

Uhm…

“Then… what is my purpose according to your guess?”

“….”

“Why did you kick us out of your fence?”

“The revelator showed.”

“Revelation… Let’s see?”

“He is beyond human understanding and is great enough to put a dent in God’s perfection.”

Karen couldn’t control her anger and trembled.

“Pseudo… Rani.”

“He showed me. “That you will come here now.”

“… I will ask.”

Karuna took over.

“In the future shown by the Revelator, have our old promises finally come true?”

“….”

“I hope so.”

Whoa…

Karen said.

“I will keep my promise from now on.”

Paaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Karen crosses the guardian castles while holding an ember in her hand.

In an instant, the distance between Jin and Karen shortened. The illusion of space folding.

The Guardians had no response.

No, it looked like he hadn’t done it.

Kkikik…

Kikigikkik…

The sword stopped midway.

It wasn’t Karuna who stopped her.

“You…”

“Not yet.” “It’s a little early to start.”

immortality.

Siloi, who was involved in all this, grinned and kicked her in the chest.

Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa8551114588 there?

“Koheook-!”

Karen bounced away at incredible speed.

I forgot for a moment, but in order to reach Jin, I had to overcome the existence of immortality.

Can I do it?

Will I be able to defeat him now that I have used up so much strength?

Her hesitation did not last long.

Cough… Cough…

“Whoa…”

Karen collapsed and vomited blood.

And the same goes for Karuna.

“Ugh… Ugh!”

A desperate fight with Lane prevented them from standing up.

“Look at this, don’t overdo it.”

“You…youoooo!”

“Oh, you’re coming at the right time.”

That guy…

that guy…

he starts to see where the darkness in the corridor weakens.

A man who did not seem to be out of sync with the atmosphere of Daejeon walked slowly and crossed the door.

“… father.”

“immortality.”

Whioooooo…

Siloi’s energy turned pitch black.

[Siloi uses the Power: Age War.]

[Siloi is the winner of the previous era.]

[The abilities of those who challenged Shiloi can be used for the duration.]

[The target’s abilities are strengthened to match the level of Shiloi. It weakens or strengthens.]

[However, the target is determined by rolling the dice.]

[If the side of Shiloi comes up, you are out of luck.]

…

[Siloi uses the Fantastical Season: Fraudulent Gambling.]

[The dice is always on the specified side. appears.]

…

Dorororo…

As expected, the dice showed snowfall.

[The ability of ‘Snowman, King of Shadows’ is selected.]

[Siloi uses the power: King of Shadows.]

…

Partzzzzzzzzzzz…

His energy was soaring as if it would explode.

Kang Seol watches for a moment to see what his intentions are for using his power.

“Montra’s guardian castle is connected to the emperor.”

“….”

“If you do this….”

Hwioooooo…

Siloi scattered into the shadows and took Jin’s body.

[Siloi uses Season: Night Raven.]

[Siloi takes on the form of a raven.]

[Siloi’s Night Raven is in Challenger status!]

[Siloi is in Night Raven: Emperor status.]

[Power: What I See World and Power: Master are mixed up.]

…

“… Haha!”

It’s a joke!

The nine guardian stars turned into shadows and nested in the night raven.

[Siloi’s Night Raven: The Emperor uses the Power: Demon King.]

[Siloi’s Night Raven: The Emperor can freely use the power of the Guardian Star.]

…

An energy that is superior to that of the previous conflict.

I didn’t even dare to confront him.

Kkuk…

Someone grabbed the hanging cloak of Kang Seol, who was watching.

Weak hands.

“My king… I don’t know…”

It was Karen.

She crawled on the floor and pleaded with tears.

“Now I don’t know anything. Help….”

“….”

“Get us… out of here. “Us…”

She lowered her head.

Saliva mixed with blood flowed from the mouth.

“Let me get up… Let me fight….”

I hope you don’t give in to fate.

Even if that choice means being sucked into a vortex of fate.

Open your eyes and see the swamp.

Whioooooooooo…

The shadow of the snowfall vibrated.

He is now someone who can stand on equal footing with immortals.

He is a worthy king.

“Come, my knight.”

I’m so tired!

Snowfall that turns white.

Karen’s shadow is overlaid on the yaksha.

[Fantasy Season: Use overpainting.]

[Night Crows can stack.]

[When overpainting, the efficiency of the night crow greatly increases and new abilities can be used.]

[Fantasy Season: The duration of Yasha (night vision) increases . It increases significantly.]

[It consumes a huge amount of concentration and stamina.]

…

And it is in a different form than before.

The repainting is not finished.

I’m so tired!

Karuna’s shadow is overlaid on it.

A pure white knight is born.

And the knight with only black pupils held a sword in both hands.

[The Knight of the White Tree is born!]

…

The message that follows.

[Get ready, a great step is imminent.]

…
