“I will help too!”

Sarah stopped by the side of the person whom she thought was a God who was blocking the darkness from the sky and raised Gaia’s holy power.

The one who was blocking the darkness first had a puzzled expression at Sarah’s appearance.

“You again?”

It was Galakios.

Having suffered greatly from the Flame Emperor, he hadn’t regained his strength.

Then, as the darkness was taking over, his instinct to survive awakened in him, and soon, he opened his eyes as he climbed up there and put his energy into stopping the darkness.

“So it was you.”

Sara also recognized Galakios and widened her eyes.

Their first meeting wasn’t great, but after learning that he was her brother’s subordinate, all the negative feelings she had disappeared.

“You were blocking it by yourself from here?”

“Don’t say nonsense, and add your strength if you want.”

“Ah, yes.”

Sarah spread her holy power wide and gently wrapped Galakios’s magi to strengthen the barrier.

Even so, the darkness was slowly eroding it. It was something that was impossible to stop.

They should think of it as buying time rather than blocking it.

“Do you know what this is about?”

Galakios glared at the darkness with displeased eyes and asked Sarah.

“It is the darkness that flows when the pillar gets destroyed.”

“Pillar?”

Sarah explained everything in detail to Galakios, who had no idea what a pillar was, including what it was and what would happen if the darkness reached the ground.

After hearing everything, Galakios looked more disappointed and angry.

“So the universe will end? Ridiculous.”

The destruction of the universe would also include Devildom.

Wasn’t it a war for the world to have freedom?

It was a full-scale war, but something so absurd made their efforts feel ridiculous.

The problem was that they couldn’t stop this with their strength alone.

Galakios looked at Sarah with a puzzled look, as if he had only learned the truth before everything would end.

“Why are you here then? If this cannot be stopped, just give up and go spend time with your mother.”

Galakios was aware of Sarah’s situation to some extent. He didn’t mean to know it, nor did he listen to it, but Isis’s reckless mouth said it.

Sarah answered without a thought,

“Because I believe my brother will resolve it.”

“Diablo?”

“Not Diablo. My brother is Jamie Welton.”

Galakios wanted to ask what the difference was, but then stopped. It was because it was meaningless to listen to every word spoken by those who shared blood.

“Right, Jamie Welton. Can he prevent the situation?”

“I don’t know.”

“You spoke in a confident voice.”

“What is certain in the world? My brother is such a person, too. If my brother fails… we will die as a family.”

“Family.”

He didn’t know what it meant to have a family. Demons were born from mating, but there were also cases where they just appeared naturally.

Galakios was the latter kind, which is why he was always alone and never cared about families.

No matter what troops he belonged to, there was no bond between them. He didn’t think it would be much different in the future, but upon seeing Sarah, he wondered what a family was.

‘On that day, too, she threw herself at me just to meet her brother.’

At that time, the Black Tower considered Sarah an enemy. She moved for Jamie Welton, who turned away from their family, but she didn’t give up.

He didn’t know why, but Sarah risked her life in the name of family and succeeded in pulling her brother out of the abyss.

“If it means surviving, I want one too.”

“What?”

“I don’t know. The speed at which the darkness is eroding has increased. Increase your output too.”

“Yes.”

Galakios and Sarah reinforced the barrier, and dark green energy covered the sky like a wave.

Even so, the speed of the erosion from the darkness didn’t slow down, and the darkness began to grow thicker.

‘Brother. Are you alright?’

Sarah, remembering Jamie was there, bit her lip.

“Die!!”

Jamie tightened the dark ring around Ra’s neck, and the ring gradually dug into his skin.

Just a little more, and his head would completely fall off. However, Ra’s resistance wasn’t weak.

“How dare you…?!”

With red eyes, he resisted as much as he could. Since the darkness had the property of absorption, it mercilessly engulfed the flames, but the endless flames were melting the ring.

‘A terrible bastard.’

Jamie clicked his tongue. Even when the ring was wrapped around his neck, the Sun God was still the Sun God.

Even in such a weakened state, he couldn’t be easily defeated. However, he had no intention of missing this chance.

“You, in this place… for sure… will fall.”

He clenched his hands tighter.

“Kuak!”

Ra groaned at the force of the ring tightening around his neck. In more than tens of thousands of years, he had never been driven into such a crisis.

Indeed, he was the nemesis whom he had chosen. Even so, he hadn’t thought about an ending where he would get defeated.

He would become the winner.

He couldn’t die in the fake world without making a real one. How long had he been so obsessed with this day?

‘I cannot be treated like this.’

He didn’t kill his brothers and colleagues and set foot on the path of doom just to end up like this.

He aimed for an ideal world where everyone lived of their own free will and destroyed this damned world made by Gaia.

That was his ideal dream—a true world.

But was he willing to end it all here?

“This is the body of the Sun God!”

Kwaaah!

Pure white flames flowed wildly from Ra’s body. Jamie gritted his teeth as he saw his clenched hands open.

‘Insane! How is his resistance this high?!’

The ring began to slip away, so Jamie made the black mana stronger, but his power got even stronger, as if Ra had decided to fight.

Jamie put his hands together, made a string of black mana, and tied his hands tightly so they wouldn’t come undone.

‘It is his final push with all his remaining strength. As long as I can endure it, it will end fine.’

Huge wings of flame spread on Ra’s back. At the same time, a blinding light shone, making Jamie momentarily blind.

And he looked at Ra.

“…pathetic bastard.”

Wheik-

Suddenly, he had an enormous body, wings, and tail with feathers engulfed in golden flames. This huge bird appeared before his eyes with a sharp beak and a mane of blazing flames flying over his head.

Jamie felt it right then.

The fact that this was Ra’s true form.

‘The ring broke?’

Jamie clicked his tongue and stepped back. It seemed that his skin would burn if he got closer to it.

‘Still, he wouldn’t be able to maintain that form for long.’

Just like he thought earlier, this was Ra’s last attempt to survive. It would be impossible for him to do anything more than this because this was all the remaining power he had.

The problem was that he didn’t have much black mana left either.

[…]

Ra flapped his huge wings and looked at Jamie in silence. Jamie calculated how many times he could use magic with the little mana he had left.

And then Ra said,

[If you win against me, what will you even do with this world?]

Jamie frowned at his unexpected question.

He wondered if he was buying time to recover more of his energy, but he didn’t care and answered,

“I don’t know either. Maybe talk to Gaia.”

[She made this world of her own will. A toy she can change whenever she wants. What will you talk to her about?]

“I need to hear both sides of the story. Why should I fully believe in your words alone?”

[I have shown you everything.]

“No. You showed me what you needed me to see. You didn’t show me what happened between Gaia and them or why Gaia did that.”

Ra couldn’t reply back. Just like he said, Gaia betrayed her two siblings, but he didn’t show him why she did so. In addition, the words Gaia said when she betrayed her two brothers lingered in his mind.

“Gaia didn’t want the previous universe to repeat itself. I don’t know what the previous universe was like. So I need to know the reason why she didn’t want to repeat the same universe.”

[What will you do next when you hear the truth?]

“If she really thought of this world as a toy and made it, then she should be killed.”

If that were true, Jamie had no reason to let her live. But if there were other reasons, it wouldn’t be too late to listen to her and decide what to do after.

[I see.]

He was silent for a while, as if he had heard what he wanted to hear. However, Jamie couldn’t understand the sudden change in his behavior.

‘I don’t know when he will come for a surprise attack.’

Attacking him was the only way to get out of this place, and Jamie couldn’t relax anymore.

It was at that moment…

[Is this my destiny?]

Ra mumbled in a dejected tone.

[I thought I could step a little further. Again, I am frustrated at this.]

“…What nonsense are you on about?”

[Jamie Welton. I wonder how you will react when you find out the whole truth.]

Ra smiled, and then the flames burned stronger, making Jamie fear it was an attack, so he unfolded a shield.

But the flames didn’t come to attack him.

[Unfortunate. Truly.]

Ra closed his eyes. And the flame, which had been burning, went out like a candle, as if it never existed.

It disappeared in an instant, and Jamie mistook Ra for doing something else.

“Where are you? Why are you hiding?!”

Jamie tried to find Ra by raising his senses as much as he could, but his presence couldn’t be felt.

It was impossible to hide like this.

It was as if he had completely disappeared from the world.

‘Did he evolve again?’

If so, then he had no future. Jamie felt his heart beating like it was going to explode and was very wary of his surroundings.

Ten minutes passed like that, and Jamie had no choice but to admit it.

“Ra… is gone.”

The last thing he saw earlier was the sight of him dying.

It was just that he couldn’t see it clearly because of the overwhelming appearance Ra showed.

Jamie stared blankly into the space.

No more Ra.

For over 60,000 years, the mighty enemy that he couldn’t cross had disappeared.

“Haha…”

Jamie laughed, but his face didn’t. He wasn’t sure what expression to put on now.
