"It's just that what I'm going to do is too secretive. I can't guarantee whether there is a traitor in our military camp, so I can only act alone with Augurola, and then you have the scene you saw."
"I know that if I do this, I will be convicted of treason and become a sinner for eternity."
"But I don't care. If I don't do this, the enemy will break through the borders of the Brentanian Empire, and everything you and I cherish will be destroyed under their iron hoofs."
"I didn't allow that to happen. I made my choice. So you don't have to regret it. All the choices you made were correct, and so were mine. Please be proud of me."
"This is a war. Even if you are the winner, someone has to bear the consequences. There is no need to clear my name. Let me be the eternal sinner of Brentanya. When you return to the capital and announce the victory of this war, please do not forget to tell the world..."
"I used the wealth of the entire country to build an altar to summon the gods and pray for the arrival of the evil god. It was you who used the power of the World Tree to stop me and save this country."
"You are the hero who saves everything, and I am just a dirty sinner. Perhaps you will ask, why am I willing to do this
Because you are a good emperor, I see hope for a new world from the direction of your governance. You are the one who can change this era and bring about real change. "
"I hope you can change this country and bring true happiness to its people. Maybe you don't know the story of Norn and me, but I hope that under your leadership, there will no longer be people like Norn and me in this country, and the light will truly shine in every corner of this country."
“Please continue on this path, do not retreat, and do not look back. This is the path you should take, and the crown of justice and righteousness will naturally be reserved for you.”
"Let me bear the crime of being a dark wizard, endure the wrath of the Church, the abuse of the world, and become an eternal sinner! I will bear all of this, I will bear it, and I will carry this world forward!"
"You are the king, the emperor. You must stand in the spot of glory, even if it means stepping on my dead body."
"And I am willing to be buried in the darkness and become your stepping stone."
"This is the fate of a minister."
Valerius Licinius, last work.
o
o
The distant wind blew over, brushing against the fragile piece of letter paper.
The empress's hands trembled for the first time.
"Final work?"
She said softly, "Sir Neil, what does the last word mean?"
Old Neil no longer had any way to answer her questions.
He temporarily lost his five senses.
"Sir Neil, did you feel Licinius' presence just now? Is he still alive?"
The empress murmured softly, floating silently in the air and heading towards the sky.
She flew very slowly, releasing her perception to the maximum, for fear of missing anything.
Fifty meters, one hundred meters, two hundred meters, three hundred meters, five hundred meters...
There was such silence above the sky, without any sound.
The empress was actually a very rational person. She knew that as the caster of the spell, there was no way she could escape the release of such horrific energy. Perhaps the young man had disappeared in the first few tenths of a second.
Not even ashes will be left.
Completely disappeared without a trace.
But she retained that last bit of willfulness and stubbornly wanted to fly to the sky.
Want to see him again.
Everyone raised their heads and looked at His Majesty floating in the sky, bewildered and puzzled.
Dark clouds swept in from the horizon, blocking out the scorching sun.
Finally, the empress was shrouded in darkness, floating alone in the sky, overlooking the desert land.
The earth is so desolate.
Just like her heart, empty and cold.
He is gone...
We clearly won the battle, clearly protected the country, and defended the dignity and honor of the monarch.
Everything is moving in a good direction...
But why can’t I be happy
Why does my heart hurt so much
The empress held the letter tightly and bit her lips hard.
At first, my father did not trust the teacher.
So the teacher died.
But, I clearly trusted you this time, why did you still die
The young man's voice seemed to ring in my ears again.
"Your Majesty, do you really not mind that I am a dark magician?"
"Your Majesty, I am willing to be your night watchman and protect this country."
"Your Majesty, as long as I live, you won't have to bear everything alone."
Yes, you are my subject.
I have said that I will share all the sins and punishments in this world with you.
But in the end, I promised you, but I didn't do it.
"Valerius Licinius."
The empress treasured the letter against her chest and looked up at the dark clouds above her head.
A tear fell from the snow-white cheek and fell to the ground.
In that tear, endless blazing golden light was reflected.
"No matter what the cost, I will find you back, even if it means going to hell."
She whispered, "God... is it?"
Chapter 110 Norn, come to me!
Licinius walked in the world above the gray fog, looking dazed.
"This is the most successful cup I have filled since my memory was awakened, right? The orc army and the undead army have all died. Although the power of the divine punishment has been reduced to avoid harming friendly forces, the military advisor and his men will probably not have a good ending. The rest... is left to Your Majesty."
"If Norn hears that I'm dead, will he cry? I hope the gravekeeper is reliable and doesn't lose the letter. Otherwise, when I get out, I'll be the first one to fight him."
"Your Majesty should think I'm dead now. After all, she is the emperor. She should be more rational and obey my wishes. If she puts all the blame on a dead person like me, she will be cursed for eternity!"
"But, when I become the Demon King, how should I meet her?"
"Well, to avoid social death, I'll say I'm Licinius's brother! This is the sin of the Knight!"
"And those rubbish in the family, I'm back! Hahaha!"
Li Xini covered his face with one hand, his eyes showing madness, and he laughed wildly.
He would like to call today's battle the Owl's Requiem!
The hero who saved the country ultimately died alone, bearing the infamy of being a sinner for all eternity.
However, nothing is certain yet, the story is not over yet, because the young man he once was is about to return as a demon king!
This is the real plot!
Above the gray fog, the young man's crazy, devil-like laughter echoed.
Suddenly, a blazing golden light descended from the sky.
I saw a huge golden face floating in the mist, with strange and blurred facial features showing majesty and terror. It just looked down at the human boy below, silent.
"Hello, Annihilation-chan."
Li Xini took out a loose black suit from the gray fog storage room and put it on. His tone was relaxed and cheerful: "I guess you and Baimu-chan should be quite familiar with each other. I am also a frequent visitor to the abyss. There is no need to say any more nonsense. Let's get started!"
If the evil god really had human thoughts, then his mood at this moment must be:
"What kind of a scoundrel is Annihilation-chan?"
"Is this human abnormal?"
"I suggest he see a doctor!"
There was still silence in the gray fog.
Licinius was not in a hurry at all, as he was in a good mood anyway.
"Whether I can succeed in committing suicide depends on this one. If my dear Annihilation-chan can really kill me, then He is my favorite evil god!
Baimu-chan has to step back a little, Sage-chan? I don't know him! Even if these evil gods are defeated, I still have His Majesty to help me! I will definitely bear this infamy for all eternity!"
The boy thought...
The Lord of Annihilation looked down at the young man, heartless and ignorant.
After a long time, He finally spoke: "I grant you the power to destroy everything and bring annihilation to this earth. In return, I will..."
Li Xini's eyes suddenly lit up, he held his breath, and his heartbeat accelerated!
The big one is coming!
The Lord of Annihilation paused, then said majestically: "I will take away your body!"
"Ah?"
Li Xini looked confused and asked, "Are you kidding me?"
His body is clearly still here!
The gray fog began to stir, revealing the vast and deep darkness of the universe.
In the darkness, a pile of broken flesh and blood floated.
To be honest, Li Xini almost didn't recognize that this thing was actually himself!
"So you took my flesh and blood before I was annihilated?"
He was shocked and asked, "Is this what you should do?"
Lord of Annihilation: "Yes!"
Licinius was shocked again. What on earth was going on with this proud tone
The Lord of Annihilation stared at the human boy. Even with the wisdom of the evil god, he could not understand how this guy, who should have been just a soul, could be reborn into flesh and blood.
At the same time, countless cracked eye pupils emerged in the gray fog.
And a strange silhouette that looked like the remains of a martyr.
The Hundred-Eyed Evil God and the True Sage gave a thumbs up.
"Fuck, the Lord of Annihilation is trying to trick me, and you two are here to join in the fun?"
Li Xini was stunned: "Are you evil gods mentally ill? Can't you just kill me?"
Why do I feel like I'm being treated like a fool
Baimujiang: "..."
Sage sauce: “…”
Annihilation-chan: "Although you have been reborn into a physical body, the aura of annihilation will still remain in your body for a while. Be prepared when you return to the human world. This is a friendly reminder."
The next moment, the gray fog began to turbulent, and the three evil gods disappeared.
The only thing left was the stunned silver-haired boy, lying disheveled in the mist.
"Why does this feel so thoughtful?"
He murmured, "So, I failed three times in a row?"
These evil gods are here specifically to mess with his mentality and make him break down!
boom!
Licinius felt his body lose weight and fell rapidly out of the world of gray fog.
