Became a tyrant of defense games - Episode 465
◈ 465. [Side Story] Everything Black (5)
“Jupiter Junior.”
When the emperor called his name quietly, Junior, embarrassed, stood at attention..
“Yes, yep! your majesty!”
“I said that a certain amount of damage must be inflicted on the entire magic circle. Specifically, how much of a blow is it??”
“It seems like we need to make sure to destroy at least ten of the magic circles and the points where the magic flow flows..”
“Ten places…….”
There is not much time left before the shutdown protocol is activated..
The destruction of ten places seemed impossible at first glance, but the emperor pondered seriously, as if he had no intention of giving up..
“Jupiter Junior. You seem to be a wizard that Ash trusts..”
“Yes that's right.”
“I'm going to go destroy another part of the magic circle, so can I leave this to you??”
Junior slowly glared at Reina, who was standing with her cane somewhere nearby..
You must subdue Raina, who appears to protect the magic circle, and even destroy the magic circle... … It was an incredibly difficult mission, but.
Junior answered without hesitation..
“Yes, Your Majesty. Please leave it to me.”
“Thank you. Let me believe it.”
The emperor nodded, fluttering his cloak and heading to the basement on the other side, and the palace guards followed behind him and disappeared in a huff..
“…….”
“…….”
There was silence for a moment in the empty basement..
Junior and Raina made eye contact and slowly walked sideways. It was Raina who broke the silence first..
“Why are you trying to stop this, Junior??”
“Why??”
Junior was so dumbfounded that he responded sharply..
“This is to prevent the innocent citizens of the imperial capital from being massacred..”
“That's the strange thing.”
Reina chuckled..
“If you're in a position to avenge Camilla's kingdom, shouldn't you just let the Shutdown Protocol activate??”
“……!”
“In your country, the imperial army massacred civilians. It's proof that you're alive. Your body that was battered by the magic of me and Jupiter.”
Junior unconsciously squeezed his left arm with his right hand. The left half of his body had clear burn marks..
Reina continued to spit bitterly..
“As the empire waged wars of conquest, it massacred civilians all over the world. If it weren't for Jupiter's protest 15 years ago, we would have continued to do that until now..”
“…….”
“What if all the civilians in the imperial capital were massacred? Couldn’t that be called karma??”
It was sophistry. It was nonsense..
however-
“Let this magic work. The empire will receive the punishment it deserves, and the victims of the Kingdom of Camilla will be able to relax at least in the afterlife..”
Horrible memories from childhood tightened Junior's heart..
Lightning and storm.
A collapsing temple. The priest who fell down, sprinkling blood…….
A lost hometown. Biological parents whose bodies were never found.
Younger brothers still living with burnt bodies.
And the citizens of the empire live happily and joyfully here in the imperial capital, without any interest in such tragedies.…….
‘why?’
Why do we have to live such different lives just because we were born in a different country?.
‘It's not fair..’
As I thought so in my heart, Raina's words sounded sweet, even if just for a moment..
‘An eye for an eye. This includes: blood for blood.’
This lump in my heart, the anger and resentment that won’t go away… … If you do as Reina said, I think it will disappear a little bit..
‘They need to know the pain I went through.’
A whisper was heard in my ear. Junior almost agreed with Raina's words for a moment..
It was then.
- Just don't forget. everything you've been through.
The voice of Camus, a neighbor who died fighting with Reina, rang in my mind..
- To forgive, forgive. If you want revenge, take revenge. If you can't choose between the two, that's okay. Keep thinking about it. Until one day you find the answer you want.
Junior stopped..
Grit your teeth, clench your fists, take a deep breath.-
“……I am.”
and finally.
Junior spat out with difficulty..
“I don't forgive the Empire. but.”
Junior raised his eyes and looked straight at Raina..
“But I also don't want to take revenge on the Empire..”
“…….”
“I will never be able to forgive the Empire in the future, but that doesn't mean... … I don't want to take revenge on blood for blood..”
At that moment, the whispers tickling Junior's ears disappeared..
My vision cleared and everything became clear. Junior took a deep breath..
Raina, who was listening quietly, had a hollow smile on her lips..
“You're weak. junior.”
“yes, i am weak!”
Junior squeezed his chest with burn-stained hands..
“But is that wrong??”
“…….”
“I just want to quit. I don't want revenge, I don't need forgiveness…….”
It didn't matter if they called me a coward. He didn't mind being accused of being a coward..
He just wanted to live with his enemies..
wanted to live together.
But that's all.
“I just remember. I'm just going to continue clearly so that everyone knows what happened so that they don't forget..”
“…….”
“I just…….”
Junior looked at Raina with anxious eyes..
“Breaking away from the mold of revenge or forgiveness... … I just want to talk to you.”
Reina chuckled..
“……Obviously, I made that promise.”
Next time we meet, we'll tell each other's stories. We decided to talk about how each other lived..
“Unfortunately, I don't think it's a good time to chat..”
Okay-
Raina, standing with her legs wide apart, began to gather wind in her fingertips..
“Want to stop the shutdown protocol? then kill me.”
“…….”
“That's the only way, Junior..”
Junior gritted his teeth and held out his staff - [Lord of Crimson]..
“I'll save you and stop the shutdown protocol..”
“With a soft mindset that is neither black nor white,…….”
Quaaaaa!
The wind current rushing towards Raina suddenly became stronger. Reina laughed bitterly.
“You won't achieve either, kid.!”
Return to school! Going to school-!
Reina fired a magic bullet of wind with her fingertips. Junior created a strong wind and offset it..
Kugoogung! Kugugoogung Palace……!
The underground space vibrated violently, and cloudy dust flowed like a waterfall..
As if it was fate that was decided from the beginning.
The life and death battle between the two wizards has finally begun..
***
“……no.”
The emperor stopped walking underground..
With so little time left, it would be absurd to destroy the magic circle by sweeping across the entire underground area of the Imperial Capital..
No matter how powerful Ilshin is, he is an emperor who has reached divine status, but there is a limit to the physical power he can exert..
It is impossible to destroy the magic circle spread throughout the entire underground area of the Imperial Capital with a single blow..
Then, with the method of elimination… … We must rely on the strength of others.
“…….”
After making his judgment, the emperor changed course. The imperial guards followed in sweat as the emperor flew up the stairs and returned to the ground..
After reaching the ground, the emperor raised his head and quickly looked around..
“The fact that Raina is here now... … This means that Alcatraz is nearby.?”
It was the emperor himself who granted the Magic Corps the right to use the imperial flagship Alcatraz..
The emperor raised the back of his hand toward the dark sky and declared..
“come! my boat!”
A bright blue pattern shone on the back of the emperor's hand..
The soldiers of the imperial guard were confused, but after a while their mouths fell open..
Alcatraz, which had been circling and waiting in the sky, was forced to land as if it had been captured by force..
“It's Jim's flagship, so of course it's his will to call it out..”
As the Emperor clenched his fist, the hatch of the Alcatraz he had landed in opened roughly. The magic soldiers inside were scared and didn't know what to do..
Seeing this, the emperor said to the palace guards:.
“What are you doing, security guard??”
“yes, yes?”
“Bring them out and arrest them. right now.”
“Ah, yep!”
After clearing away the magic corps inside the airship, the emperor climbed into Alcatraz alone..
Going to school……!
Although it is a secret ship that usually requires three or more people to control, the emperor sat alone at the head table without anyone on board and controlled the airship with only his will, soaring into the sky..
The imperial guards on the ground and the magic soldiers captured by them saw Alcatraz moving away with its mouth open..
Gooooooo-!
With an airship in the very center of the ecliptic sky,.
The Emperor spoke into Alcatraz's microphone and used his own powers to amplify his voice - and shouted loudly throughout the Imperial Capital..
「I say!」
The emperor's voice was clear and filled with unique power. That voice spread far and wide, not only in the ecliptic but also in the surrounding area..
everyone looked up at the sky.
The Imperial Guard, the Imperial Army, and the World Defense Front who were fighting with their weapons pointed at each other in front of the South Gate of the Imperial Capital..
Geronimo and the Imperial Air Force Fleet, which continued to chase in the area's airspace,.
Citizens who were clamoring from the outskirts to escape the imperial capital. Citizens who lived their daily lives in their homes believing in the eternal life promised by Fernandez.
When the voice of the emperor, who was said to be dead, was heard in the air, everyone stopped moving and looked up at the same time..
「The luggage is Traha ‘Peacemaker’ Everblack! He is the only true emperor of this empire.!」
“your majesty……?!”
“He didn't die.?”
“Then why did Prince Fernandez…….”
Citizens murmured in surprise. the emperor continued.
「First of all, I apologize for being away for a long time and not fulfilling my duties as emperor..」
The citizens were even more surprised and held their breath all at once..
That emperor Traha is an apple??
It was more surprising than the return of the emperor who was said to be dead..
「Although I have no shame as an emperor who abandoned the country, I would like to ask you one thing in the face of an unprecedented crisis..」
The emperor did not hide.
「The magic circle installed by Fernandez is ready to be activated. When this spell is activated, all living things in the ecliptic will die..」
“……?!”
A silent scream spread out in all directions..
People in panic tried to rush to get out of the capital at once..
But then the emperor's voice came louder and clearer..
「Citizens of Zim! If you want to live, fight back!」
“……!”
「Eternal life given by others is a lie! The only ones who deserve to survive are those who fight to preserve their own lives.!」
The voice of the emperor who ruled the world's largest country had the power to make people pay attention and follow him..
The emperor shouted repeatedly.
「fight!」
「Destroy the underground magic circle!」
「This is an order given by the emperor, and at the same time... … It's also a request.」
Emperor's Request.
Citizens' eyes turned to hear those words for the first time in their lives..
「Protect New Terra, my citizens.!」
Citizens who were rushing to the outskirts of the Imperial Capital through the back roads turned back to the station..
Citizens who had been sitting at home with peaceful expressions also ran out of their homes..
「To protect yourself... … Fight!」
underground.
The soldiers of the Magic Corps and the Aegis Task Force members who were standing guard at each important point in the magic circle looked at each other with empty expressions..
Wow-!
From the ground to the basement, citizens were jumping down with terrifying force..
One by one, weapons fell from the soldiers' hands. One of the special forces muttered in despair..
“……Isn't this foul play, Your Majesty?.”
bang! Kwasik-!
Throughout the Underworld of the Imperial Capital, the magic circles of the Shutdown Protocol began to be destroyed all at once by the hands of citizens..
