Time...... Clan?

To be honest, Shogo Tokiwa was really shocked by Adenes' words.

How...... What has become like this?

Isn't this the world of the Eye Demon?

Shogo Tokiwa appeared in front of Adenes, still in the form of a human covered in golden light.

Adenis knelt respectfully on the ground, and the appearance of golden light made him can't help but press his forehead closer to the ground.

My heart is full of anticipation and apprehension.

The scene was quiet for a long time.

Finally, Adenis heard a reply that made him instantly excited.

"Yes."

Tsukiwa Shogo lowered his eyes, and after speaking lightly, his figure disappeared.

He did not refuse Adnes' request.

Whatever the future holds, at least for this time, Adnes is a sincere believer, and he is not afraid to accept them.

It's just that in this way, the policy he set before needs to be rethought.

But first, he decided to reflect on the information he had overlooked.

……

……

Tsukiwa Sogo disappeared and walked through the streets of the city.

Sometimes stop and listen to the chatter, sometimes walk forward and look around.

All the people who stood in his way would subconsciously dodge their bodies and make way for him when he approached.

The people themselves are unaware of this.

In the process, Shogo Tsukiwa found that the buildings in the city had undergone a little remodeling, adding some "round" designs.

But those "circles" are not the "circles" of the eyes, but the "circles" of the clock.

What they revere and worship is not a round object, but something that embodies time.

And their worship of time comes from the phrase "the king of time" that Shogo Tsukiwa told them at the beginning.

Going further, it can even be said that when Tokiwa Shogo and Adenes first met with King Tokiwa's self-perception, they were already destined to have such a historical trend......

It's just that, why, he always has a feeling that he has been calculated?

“…… Is that you? Great Eye. ”

"Nope."

The Great Eye denied.

"The only person who can influence your perception is yourself."

"......" Shogo Tokiwa.

Suddenly the mentality collapsed a little.

Is that what he thinks?

Thinking like this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch Shogo Tokiwa, raised his hand to support his forehead, and his figure quietly disappeared on the street.

thereupon

A few years later.

……

……

"Wow-wow-"

Accompanied by a baby's cry.

Adenes' wife, Alicia, gave birth to a young boy.

Adenis named his youngest son Aram.

Staying invisible, Shogo Tokiwa leaned against the wall outside the door, listened for a while to the joyful laughter coming from inside the door, and felt their heartfelt longing and expectations for the future, and sighed softly.

The figure quietly dissipated.

In the past few years, he no longer chooses to be a cold observer, but observes the lives of Adenis in depth and continues to understand them.

During this period, Shogo Tsukiwa has also quietly entered the dreams of many people more than once.

He asked those people in his dream.

"If, if this continues, you may die, will you be willing to give up such a convenient life as you are now?"

Most people's choice is -

"Nope! The Lord of Time will bless us! ”

They don't want to.

This also includes Adenis.

So, Shogo Tsukiwa asked again.

"What if it's the Lord of Time who is making you choose?"

When the words fell, what appeared in the hearts of those people was not uneasiness, but, anger.

"Nope! The king of time wouldn't say such a thing! ”

After anger, there is hatred.

"I see, the king of time in your mouth is not the king of time at all, but a demon pretending to be the king of time!"

The heartfelt reactions of these people made Shogo Tokiwa understand one thing.

Their worship of the King of Time, in essence, is still faith in God, not trust in the King.

Tokiwa Shogo's inconspicuous behavior aggravates this belief.

Therefore, they will believe in the King of Time because of the miraculous blessings that the King of Time has brought them, and they will also abandon this belief because the King of Time no longer satisfies their pursuit of a better life.

He made a god without permission, and pushed God off the altar.

Humans keep repeating the same mistakes.

Because of this, Shogo Tokiwa, who had been thinking about it for a long time, finally decided to leave only Adenis with a warning, instead of using his own strength to force him to make the choice he wanted.

So, one day, after Adnes prayed, he warned him.

At that time, Ardenis was silent for a long time.

Then the next day, he prayed as follows:

"Great Lord of Time, please protect our future from disaster!"

“……”

In this regard, Shogo Tsukiwa did not make any response.

thereupon

A few more years later.

……

……

In the face of Shogo Tokiwa's silent refusal, Adenes finally got lucky and chose to continue that life.

He still prays every day.

Express gratitude, ask for forgiveness, and ask for protection.

In this regard, Tokiwa Shogo responded with silence and did not make any response.

Like, what he did at the beginning.

The only difference is that he has been watching the world all the time, instead of choosing not to look at it most of the time, as he did at the beginning.

In this way, the sky of this world, under the gaze of Shogo Tokiwa, Adenis's unwittingly flukely apprehension, turned into an ominous dark red.

Then, a mysterious disease began to spread.

The Red Death Disease is coming.

It finally came into the world.

Many people have fallen because of it.

Adenis immediately ordered a medical clinic to be set up in the street to isolate and treat those who had died of redness.

However, even this did not stop the spread of the Red Death.

In addition, the medical clinic has not been able to find a way to treat the death of the red disease.

In the city, people quickly became panicked.

The collapse of people's hearts due to speculation and suspicion.

The endless despair that can only wait for death to come.

Faced with this tragic picture, Shogo Tokiwa wanted to close his eyes, but in the end, he chose to continue watching.

Shogo Tsukiwa told himself that this journey would eventually come to an end and he would always leave.

Rather than wait for him to leave and these people repeat the mistakes of the Eye Demon World, it is better to let them fall first while he is there.

Even if this is bound to cause many people to die, at least, at this time, there is still him to cover them, isn't it?

Thinking like this, Shogo Tokiwa found that he was much calmer than he had imagined.

This made him can't help but smile bitterly.

"Heh, I'm really the Demon King."

Standing at the highest point of the city, Shogo Tokiwa looked down at everything below, slowly raised his hand, and plucked it gently as if he were plucking a string.

Invisible ripples spread.

Below, the despair that shrouded the city intensified......
