Ivas looked at Origan, and his voice became hoarse and low, as if coming from the abyss:

"I'm coming back from the future, Oligen. From the future after we are all dead. ”

"Future ......"

Oligen muttered, "It's like you foresaw the future." ”

Obviously, as Khlechin's most trusted lieutenant and the strongest warrior in his retinue, Oligen had known that Khlechin had a vision of the future.

As a warrior of the path of strength, Oligan's mind was clearly not very good. It's not that he's intellectually inferior, it's that his overly pure heart makes him unaccustomed to the pursuit of truth.

Just silent, calm, loyal.

Day after day, wielding the blade and refining the body. Other than that, there is nothing else to do. He did what Khlechin said; He praised Khlechin's righteous deeds, admired his morality and courage, but did not intend to dictate Khlechin's actions—just listen to them and then do them.

Only by being so single-minded and sincere in heart can we reach this state at a young age. That pure warrior's heart can't tolerate the weak emotion called curiosity. The path of strength is pure, and the turbidity of the path of wisdom cannot pollute his heart.

It doesn't matter if Khlegin becomes a ghost or if Khlegin returns in the future.

Oligen's instincts, as calm and clear as a mirror of water, had already told him that the man at the moment was Khlechin.

He has never forgotten his original intention.

Although this life was saved by Helchin...... But the grace of saving his life, at most, was only repaid by death, which was not enough for him to put down the dignity of a warrior and give his life's loyalty. What really made him decide to follow Khlegin was Khlechin's good thoughts and righteous deeds.

- Oligen wants to be a good person.

He also had dreams and wanted to live for others as a child.

But the dream of "bringing light back to the earth" is too ambitious.

In the long journey of practicing martial arts, he gradually understood...... It is not that with a sincere and benevolent heart will necessarily get good results. Even with the best intentions, it is possible to be taken advantage of, unable to see the fog clearly, or unable to ask for and miss the best opportunity.

Because he lacks wisdom.

- If you want to eradicate evil spirits, you must have wisdom that surpasses them! If you want to overcome the wicked, your partners must also overcome the accomplices of the wicked!

It was for this reason that Oligen found Khlechin and his retinue.

Relying on Khlechin's thinking, and the collective wisdom and individual expertise of his companions, he was finally able to give up thinking and become a transparent existence as an increasingly sharp weapon.

Without thinking, you can move forward with a clear mind and determination, and wholeheartedly trust your guide and confirm that this is the right path - this is the happiness of being led.

So when Khlechin uttered the first words, Origen had already believed most of them.

—and when the night demon flew quietly over, he was convinced.

That's the Night Demon of the sixth level!

Although it was not known that Khlegin had a relationship with such a powerful demon...... But since His Excellency Khlegin was able to hand over the weapons of demon punishment to himself, it was not surprising that such a thing would happen.

I saw that the night demon turned into a pitch-black crow without saying a word, and stopped on the shoulder of the king of the wild hunt who was dressed in silver armor but permeated with a pitch-black dead aura and held a scarlet greatsword. It was as if it was about to merge with the black mist that he was seeping out of now.

"Oligen ......"

Khlechin's dark and hollow voice sounded: "Do you know how we died in the end? ”

“…… I am a dull man, Your Excellency. ”

Oligen let out a smooth, deep voice, "So I don't know. ”

He is a lizardman with a fairly strong physique. As a male lizardman, his color is much brighter than that of a female, and he has many large dark red markings on the overall black-gray body surface. From a distance, it looks like a black charcoal fire wrapped in flames that have not yet been extinguished.

He had tough fleshy spines on his head and tough scales like armor. The face was closer to that of the legendary dragon than that of a lizard.

"—we fought to the death."

Khlechin replied, "Just as we saw before." ”

"I'm ready, Your Excellency Khlechin." Oligan replied.

"We end up dying of betrayal, but even if we don't, we're doomed...... Because the gods are not on our side. From the very beginning, it was a war that was bound to be lost. ”

"Yes, Your Excellency."

Origan's tone was calm, not angry at the betrayal: "But here we are still here. ”

"Your bones and my bones have been stewed into a pot of soup by giants. That pot of broth was eventually forcibly fed by the giants to those we wanted to protect...... They drank it with tears in their eyes. And we are turned into the undead, entrenched in the Valley of Beheading. Because there were no bones to collect, we ended up being cannibalistic spirits. ”

Helchin, the king of the wild hunt, said a lot of words this time.

And at this moment, Oligan's calm face was finally touched.

He had thought about death, and he had long been prepared for it.

For a warrior, his destiny is to die in battle.

- The path of a warrior, there is death and no life.

The so-called warrior is a profession that takes war and combat as its vocation. They were born to fight, and they have no fear even in the face of death.

If you lie on the bed and grow old, and your soul is impregnated by the fear of the twilight path, it is a shame for a warrior.

…… But that's the way it is.

Hearing that he had fallen into a cannibalistic evil spirit after his death still made Oligen feel a little sad.

"And what shall we do now, Your Excellency?"

Oligen humbly asked, "Take the priest with you, kill yourself and finish the funeral before you are captured?" Or simply destroy our souls? ”

Even from the very beginning, there was no such thing as "let's escape".

"You don't need to do anything."

Hellechin replied: "I do not say this so that you can find a way to avoid misfortune after death.

—but to tell you, since I have returned with the power from the other side...... Now we will not be defeated. ”

With that, he took two steps in the direction of Origen.

"Do you know where the three gathering points of 'chest', 'loin', and 'ribs' are located?"

The King of the Wild Hunt asked in a deep voice.

Oligen got on his horse and subconsciously replied, "I know ......"

Khlegin said, "Then you will show the way." ”

"But, Your Excellency...... Haven't you already experienced the future of our defeat and death? Or do you come back and see again our victorious future? ”

"Naturally, no."

"Then, Your Excellency Khlechin......"

"Even if I see the future, I experience the future, I come back from the future – does that mean that the future is predestined?"

The newborn King of the Wild Hunt asked rhetorically.

Oligen was stunned.

…… So what's not?

Haven't you all come back from that future? Not only did they dream like a hallucination, but they even saw and experienced it with their own eyes...... Doesn't that mean it's true?

He didn't know what to say for a moment.

He was born in Horus, and as an adult, he spent time in the ancient kingdom of Dorbition. One of these two nations is good at divination and the other is good at astrology, and in the mouth of those mysterious astrologers and prophets, it seems that the future is such a sacred and inviolable thing.

In his homeland, even the greatest warrior would return home to prepare his coffin and funeral because he had been prophesied death by the priests.

There have always been prophecies that have failed because of poor skills, unclear clues, and misunderstandings. Even if there is negation, it comes from their adversary.

There has never been a prophet or astrologer who, like His Excellency Khlechin, has completely denied his prophecies without giving any excuse or reason.

"Wake up, Origan."

Hellechin said, his voice sonorous: "There is no fate.

"Listen up, Origen. I'm a very stubborn person. Even if I was told that the world would be destroyed one day; Even if I have seen that future with my own eyes, even if everyone tells me that it is true......"

As Eivus spoke, black smoke leached out of him and spread out in all directions. The smoke merged with the blood moon summoned by the Night Demon, making the sky darker.

A faint yellow glow flowed from Khlechin.

Only a crisp sound could be heard, and the visor slipped off, obscuring Khlechin's face, and making his voice more and more dull and hollow:

"Unless I die in the apocalypse—even in the moment before I am destroyed, I will never give up! Because I don't believe it—"

The surrounding space melts into dusk, and time seems to freeze.

The ghostly Pegasus roars all over and walks on the ice!

Helchenna's elongated voice rang in Oligen's ears repeatedly:

"—the future cannot be changed in the next second!"
