Translated by A Passing Wanderer

Edited by RED

A long tio, Allen had an opportunity to browse a book related to the topics of Purgatory

That event took place inside the Imperial Palace's library

Allen, perched up on the top of a ladder that was leaning against a tall bookshelf so that he could check out this particular book, asked Alice below, "You know so?"

"?" She looked up at hiatory' often described as hell doesn't really exist"

He got to see the truth for hi coronation as well

Alice nodded in agree the coronation "In reality, Purgatory is hell, Your Majesty It is ruled by the God of Death, Yudai"

hell, a place where those who committed sins would end up But Allen found that part of the explanation somewhat suspicious

The Necromancers worshi+pped the God of Death When they died, they would becoatory, in other words

When Allen brought this point up, Alice shook her head "No, sire It's a different story for the Necromancers or those orshi+p the God of Death" She rubbed her chin in deep conte on "They see themselves as true believers ill assist the God of Death and co-exist with hiatory"

Apparently, the Necromancers believed that when they experienced an honourable death, or even when their natural lifespan cao to the side of the God of Death

"Does that mean there's Heaven, then?"

"Heaven, sire? You mean, the Heavenly World?"

Allen nodded at Alice's return question

He had heard a lot about Purgatory, but for some reason, there wasn't all that

After Kelt passed away, theup the Heavenly World over and over again, even while burying his coffin Of course Allen would get curious after that

He wondered if so like that really existed

"Of course, sire Except that" Alice replied while closing the bible she was reading, then carefully stroking its cover "Purgatory and the Heavenly World are almost one and the same"

The torlds existed on either sides of a boundary This boundary, as thin as a piece of paper, split the Heavenly World and Purgatory, according to her explanation

The dead souls in Purgatory could enter the Heavenly World by paying for their sins and being purified, thereby gaining an opportunity to earn a new life On the other hand, coet you sent to Purgatory to becoot up froh a distant corner of the library She eventually found a certain book It looked very old She dusted its cover off carefully and then had to gently blow some cobwebs away, too

She cautiously flipped open its pages and showed the contents within to Allen

"The reason why the Heavenly World doesn't get mentioned often despite its existence is simple, Your Majesty" She formed a wry smile and continued on, "It is because that place is supposed to be quite siatory"

There was an illustration on the pages of this book It depicted both the Heavenly World and Purgatory, but the latter had a dark and oround, while the fory in the ancient tie this They loathed the fact that Yudai, the ruler of Purgatory, and Gaia, the ruler of the Heavenly World, were existing side by side with only the sli them

They just couldn't accept that the Heavenly World was not the paradise they thought it was, a place of abundant riches That hy they tried to hide the truth even now

"If there was one distinct difference between the Heavenly World and Purgatory, then it would be that while one is a world covered in rotting flesh and blood, the other is a world of life filled with fragrant grass and life-giving water, Your Majesty"

'Uh?'

Allen began staggering unsteadily His consciousness di

The divinity within his body was rapidly draining out Strength abandoned his legs, and he even went down on his knees

His focus was getting blurrier as his vision rapidly grew darker

'What is this? What's wrong with ed up, and his entire body felt heavy and lethargic Hisquickly into pure darkness

'Alice did warn me before, but I had no idea it'

He was now beset by incredible pain, akin to his whole body being ripped apart

'Would be this painful?!'

His hearing was next to go numb

He san tasting blood in hisdown from his eyes

Both A out of control They continued to aer keep up
