Trudge, trudge

Ashes were settling on the ground Every ti to s As the zorated and dissipated from this world, their ashes danced in the winds and floated up towards the sky I extended aze forward

In the oing up in bluish fla soldiers stood around this burning figure while shedding thick drops of cold sweat, their lips clamped shut They were still deeply tense as they trained their weapons on hi down and disintegrating away

The ied by it, and so chose to lead the are war

Vland away in flaht shone down on us froh up in the heavens as the soldiers spread out left to right, doing their best to sort out the battlefield

I stared at the Va and tilted my head this way and that "You are still not dead yet?"

Just in case, I was still gripping 's head shuddered, and he looked up at me His eyes were filled to the brim with murderous intent "And so, I burn once more, just like back then"

""

"Back when I was still a huer sister was violated and killed by you Imperial Family bastards Then you burned me to death, too"

"But I wasn't responsible for any of that, though?"

"Your bloodline, your ancestors did it"

""

I frowned slightly and began breathing into the ht now, but I still had enough in the tank to send away a nearly-dead vampire

"History will soon repeat itself with you bastards"

I sensed the holy bulletVa

"Do you really think peace will coan cackling away, his body quivering visibly Then he glaredto curse us all "You are all beasts enslaved by your greed Truly evil beings lost to your own desires So, peace for bastards like you? Do not lare on me once more

"It's the sareed! You ht have saved this world, but without a doubt, you will also be tainted by the pursuit of power, its temptation! Without a doubt, you are a bastard ill pillage this world, and eventually, bring utter destruction to this wor!"

I shoved the 's mouth

"Sorry about this, but" I retorted to hiive a rat's ass about stuff like that, you see"

""

For a ained their composure, clarity even, pretty soon

{I see,} his final words rang insideout, and the back of this bastard's head exploded

The Va's body finally burned down completely into ashes, and scattered away in the winds

The King of all Va vampires would behave theripped the reins as Charlotte propped me up from behind, just in case I collapsed from exhaustion

We slowly made our way back to the capital city of Laurensis

When I took a look at the foot of the tall outer walls, I noticed corpses of all sorts of zo to the walls Even the Jötnar were collapsed on the ground, un

Meanwhile, Harman, all covered in blood, salutedfor ates of the city

Behind hi an Imperial Prince and an Imperial Princess, their current appearances were a total e some serious castle defence in order to protect the capital

I even spotted Roy hiding behind Laurence, cautiously staring at ates

"Allen-!"

The Ariana twins, as well as Seran, aving their hands atbloodied and battered, the King of Frants, Marcus, and White were standing next to them

They sure were some resilient folks, weren't they?

I turned my head and looked into the distance I could see the massive Imperial Palace waaay over yonder

That place was now my home My hoo back to

Half a year had passed since the conclusion of the War of the Apocalypse, Ragnarok

Wararden In this stillness, the chirping of birds could be heard quite vividly

As for e tree while kitted out in some over-the-top cuolden embroidery and accessories were draped all over it A flashy croas adorning my head, too

I had to sit on a h and lofty

Meanwhile, Cardinal Raphael was in front ofhis paintbrush around His other hand held a painter's palette as he expertly splashed various paints on a white paper resting on an easel

This had been going on for two hours straight Not being able tomade my muscles itch like crazy

"Raphael I had no idea that you had a talent in painting" While saying that, I glanced at the spot next to Raphael

Alice was there, giving me an aard, craer

"Your Majesty, I shall have you know that I was responsible for painting the portraits of your predecessors Alice will take over that duty in the future, of course"

"Really? Alice is talented in art, too?" I turned ain

She nodded silently, although she looked a bit bashful about that

Unlike her, though, Raphael seemed rather displeased by this little interaction and suddenly cocked his eyebrow "Your Majesty, please don't htly "In any case, why my portrait all of a sudden?"

"I am duty-bound to record the Empire's history, Your Majesty," Raphael replied, then suddenly put the paintbrush down He wiped his sweat aith the back of his hand and continued to speak "Why don't we take a short break here, sire?"

He then picked up a pen He brought out a rather thick book fro down on its pages

Raphael Astoria

He served the throne of the Holy Emperor, and recorded their feats and accomplishments He was also the Cardinal who commanded countless clerics affiliated with the Church of Caioliuh, Alice would no doubt be asked to take over all of his duties

She was a diligent, honest kid, that's for sure; as if she wanted to watch and learn frorandfather's side and carefully observed everything

These two people see the Imperial Family, from the ancient past into the distant future

I took off the cumbersome robe and chucked it to the Paladins nearby They aardly caught the robe while looking soer to nal that they should keep it down, and they indeed clamped their mouths shut for htly tapped Alice on her shoulder She looked at o 'outside'

She sawsilently

She was first to vacate the premises, so to speak

"Ah, by the way Your Majesty, a report caion" Raphael addressedhis pen down But he still see on the book, since his eyes never left it "Ronia's feudal lord, Jenald, says that the report contains the plan to stop the next Tide of Death, sire That's why he wishes to receive aid from"

"Got it I shall discuss it with my brother Luan and decide on what to do"

I too left the garden whilesure not to alert Raphael

"By the way, Your Majesty? The next agenda requiring your attention is"

His voice continued to rise up behind arden, I began walking through the corridors of the I to take care of first, so I wasn't able to spot her duringin the corridor, I took a look outside at the practice grounds brightly illu your swords!"

A familiar wo out like the heroic warrior that she was Even though there was no discernible expression on her face, she still ca for the next ten minutes! However, one hour will be added to any dropouts!"

Wo that's harsh…

She never showed such a side toon a chair next to her was Oscal, resting his hands on his sword There was a content expression on his face as he oversaw his disciple training the troops

Oscal Baldur the Sword King had already retired He toldhis disciple Charlotte growing even stronger

"Uwaaahk, I ht fall off!"

I spotted a fewthe trainees

Gril heezing away breathlessly He ots attached to the blade for thousands of tiht now

"Keep swinging, anyway!" Yuria next to him yelled at him

""

As for Adolf, he couldn't even say anything with how exhausted he was

That trio had been accepted into the Heavenly Army now Well, they had already receiveddown countless zonarok, after all

Since all three of them wanted to become Paladins, you could say that they had basically attained their dreae, [Hey, Charlotte]

Charlotte flinched a little, then looked up at me by theI bobbed my lips a little to mouth some words, then pointed to the end of the corridor

She cautiously glanced at Oscal to gauge his current h a troubled expression still floated up on her face She then sent rinned deeply before nodding back My steps took me to my quarters in the Imperial Palace

However, so for me there
