[Chapter 252 The Truth Appears]

The gray demon god, his pupils shrank suddenly.

The side of him weeping was still unresponsive, but the other side showed obvious pain.

At the bottom of his pupils, a rainbow-colored light slowly lit up:

everything around him seemed to stop and flow backwards at an extreme speed… In the blink of an eye, Annan felt that his line of sight came to a sanctuary.

– That’s the burial sanctuary.

Annan was quickly identified.

This is the statue of the mother-in-law who was buried with the bones, and it was the one that was smashed by the skeleton not long ago.

Now it is enshrined high above the sanctuary.

The giant boy with white hair, white skin, and amber eyes like a sun wheel knelt down on one knee.

He looked up at the statue of the buried mother-in-law, his face was solemn, and his eyes seemed to be shining.

“—Midas Immortal.

“My son.

My heir… my successor.

“Eternal life of this generation.”

In front of the teenager.

[Eternal Life], wearing a pure gold mask and pure white armor, held the dark gold giant sword etched with a string of runes in both hands, lowered his head and asked solemnly:

“How will you… treat my people?

“You How will this country be treated?

“How are you going to treat yourself?”

Three serious questions in a row.

But the boy with Amber Eyes did not waver at all.

Without hesitation and impatient wait, the young man recited the oath he had long thought of to his father.

“I swear that I will always have mercy on all beings and care for the weak;

“I swear that I will always be just and selfless, and strictly obey the law;”

“I swear that until I die, I will always have justice and love in my heart;

“I swear that I will be the one who takes away the most pain, and the one who creates the greatest happiness;

“I will be the candle, and I will burn out.

But before it burns up, I will do my best to dispel the darkness for posterity;

“I will set up a monument to bury the dead, and I will not allow the dead to walk on the ground as far as I can see;

“I will I will do my best, and then turn into dust—and my bones will eventually become the cornerstone of the giant’s rise again.

”

But only his father knows how hard it will be… what a painful vow.

– You’ll regret it,

he thought. In the

end, though, he said nothing.

Respect the next generation for immortality .

The will of the public… This is the curse passed down from generation to generation by the immortal family.

“Then, as you wish.

Duke Yongsheng said in a deep voice.

He

raised the giant sword and patted his son’s left and right shoulders on both sides.

Then.

He handed the giant sword to his son, turned around and took off his cloak.

Few people would I know.

The armor on Duke Yongsheng’s back is a pupil-like crack.

That position is for…

“Farewell, father.

‘

Midas murmured,

pointing the greatsword at his father’s back – thrusting it hard.

The moment the blade pierced through his body, it burst into divine heat.

There was no resistance, no pain, The previous generation of Eternal Life turned to ashes in the blink of an eye… and the sacred armor worn by Eternal Life as the “Paladin Commander” also fell to the ground in pieces.

Midas was silent and put on the platinum that fell to the ground. Colored armor.

——As an immortal prince, he is not even qualified to collect a handful of ashes as a memory.

Just in that moment.

At the moment when Duke Yongsheng developed self-loathing, a vague idea appeared in his mind.

“I want to… cut off this disgusting tradition.”

In order to let his descendants no longer have the right to keep his father’s ashes…

but also for [justice] and [love].

“I will be the candle, and I will burn it out.”

But before it burns out…I will do my best to be good.

The next moment, the whole world turned gray and stagnant.

“Do you remember, Midas?” The

only colored Alley, standing where Midas’s father disappeared, looked at his gray-white, frozen back.

“…Your initial dream was not about gaining a physical body, nor about getting a divine position. It was about breaking this tradition… It was a great wish [hoping that the tragedy would not be repeated].”

That’s similar” I want to be a partner of justice”, a simple and noble dream.

It is a sincere wish without any problems or dirt.

Cleanse the dead.

Aid is weak.

Help whoever you can.

Save those who can be saved.

This is… what Midas did during the first 30 years of inheriting the position of “Eternal Lord”.

nature.

He is also a mortal and loves people.

He will also marry and have children… His son will eventually inherit his position.

But the first troubles came.

His son… was a fool.

“—Your Majesty, I will go ahead.”

This was his wife’s last words when her son had grown up and committed suicide with the holy sword [Embers of Buried Bone].

A wave of power is enough to sweep away the dead souls of ten miles.

Such a holy sword… it is most commonly used, and it is actually used to kill itself.

At that moment, Midas had an unprecedented resistance to [Mission] and [Oath].

And…

resistance to [Death].

Giants should not have such thoughts.

Because of the lack of emotion between them, they only need to live for themselves.

Even the most exhausted immortal family, they are “specially forgiven” and only need to live for forty years… As long as the child is an adult, the armor and holy sword can be passed on to the next generation.

From this point of view, even Eternal Life… has the same concept of life and death.

But at the moment when his wife died.

In Midas’s heart, there was a sense of mission that was almost absurd.

If I die… can my son really inherit his own path?

But when he was keenly aware that he could not fight against the heavy “tradition” accumulated by thousands of years of history… Archduke Midas timidly took a step back.

…he is not helpless.

The year his son was sixteen years old, twenty years after he succeeded to the throne of immortality.

After the white-haired boy and Duke Yongsheng entered the secret room again.

Same as before… Only the Duke of Eternal Life, who seemed a little crazy, came out.

But no one knows.

The one who died this time was not the Eternal Lord of the previous generation… but his foolish son.

“Perhaps at this time… your original wish was changed.”

– Killing his own son with his own hands.

Undoubtedly the most unforgivable capital sin in any country.

And after getting “twenty years” for killing his son, and a new wife and son… Although this son is a wise man, his ability cannot be compared to the forty years of rule Experienced Midas.

“I will be the candle, I will burn it… But my life is worth more than them.”

Thinking of this, Midas killed his wife and son again.

In this way, generation after generation… He killed all his children and spouses, playing the role of “Eternal Life” with different personalities from generation to generation.

Finally, he faced the biggest limit.

——An invisible wall called [Life].

The “extreme” that the giant race is almost impossible to reach.

At that time, the undead were almost extinct… The elven empire also stopped using the spell energy technology, which led to the contraction of political power.

That was undoubtedly the turning point of the Eternal Principality…

Midas, who could not give up, finally chose the biggest taboo.

The kingdom of paladins, the kingdom of the undead, the kingdom of immortality, the kingdom of burial and mourning songs—in the countries where everyone is the enemy of the undead, their immortal, the most kind paladin, transformed himself into the undead.

Ignore ethics.

beyond the law.

Betrayal of a loved one…

he did all the forbidden things.

“Dream is the poison that confuses the good and the wicked…”

Annan murmured in a low voice.

Since when did…

that young boy with a twinkling light in his eyes…began to fall?

“After all, you are still betrayed by your dreams. Your talents are exhausted, your mind is dry, you are betrayed and separated… and finally you betrayed your dreams.

“That is Elle’s holy deed.

It spans time and space and cause and effect, and confirms to the root of the truth of [betrayal]—that is, you, the eternal life.

“From the very beginning, you have been living under Elle’s curse… The most ridiculous thing is that Elle was born out of your fear and regret for the ‘bones’.

“The dream you betrayed has become Your biggest curse, your deepest nightmare, haunting you all your life… Let you regret everything you have abandoned for the rest of your life.

“Until now, ‘the creator was killed by his own creation’… This is the highest sacrificial ceremony of the skeleton man. UU reading www.sonicmtl.com And now the skeleton man is dead, only one body survives. You will eventually In turn, it will become the nourishment of Ellie—the sacrificial specifications you set with malice in the past, the ritual of killing Ellie… will eventually bury yourself completely.”

If the skeleton did not intend to snatch Elle’s body.

Then the fact that he was killed by Ailey was enough to make him the true god of betrayal—it was precisely because of his instinctive dislike of “skeletons” that he lost his body and lost his ability to respond to the ritual. ability.

And now…

“Here, the reason of [betrayal]… is completely proved.”

Annan opened his eyes and returned to the broken world full of sand and dust.

The next moment, a rainbow-colored brilliance condensed on the fingertips of “Ai Lei”.

Under the gaze of the tired gray demon pierced by countless rainbow-colored chains.

A strong rainbow-colored radiance rose from the ground.

“Elei”‘s voice was full of rumbling echoes.

“As you say it yourself… it is not ‘death is coming’ that you fear, because you already know ‘death is coming’. As you swore, ‘I will be the candle, I will burn Exhausted’.

“You looked in the wrong direction at the beginning, tombstone…

“You will burn out here.” A

brilliance condensed in Elle’s hands.

It is the book of truth that carries the truth of [betrayal].

— “Atonement”.
