Chapter 463: Epilogue (Part Two)
Ten years had passed in the blink of an eye, like a beautiful dream, yet when the Sun King tried to recall everything that had happened over the decade, he found to his hazy dismay that the dream was missing many details.
When had the herald been chosen by Him?
And who had added those frescoes that recounted His magnificent deeds?
As these doubts surfaced, the Sun King, who had embraced divinity, uncommonly felt human emotions once more.
Cold, and spine-chillingly so.
"It’s better not to think about it too deeply."
The transmitter, as if seeing through His heart, advised, "You are the creator of this place, which holds everything you desire."
Imdiately after, the newcor turned toward the blank space on the wall.
Now, they had arrived at the node of reincarnation, and the story of the Sun King would continue on. The world would et the expectations of the divinity, and He would find the ultimate answer on Blue Star to beco the only eternal presence in this world.
At that ti, the cycle would be broken.
Thinking this, the herald shook his head in regret.
"It’s a pity that when you notice sothing is amiss, all the stories co to an end."
This was the only person in ten years who had not groveled before the Sun King. He could have incinerated the other in an instant had He wished, but He did not do so.
Or more precisely, He could not.
He stood frozen, unable to speak, his eyes wide open as he stared deathly at the unwelco visitor.
What frightened the Sun King even more was a sudden sense of familiarity with the scene; he was not here for the first ti.
Perhaps it was in a dream, or maybe it was a fragntary prophecy He had glimpsed.
Of course, there was another possible answer.
The herald let out a long sigh and set aside the paintbrush in his hand.
"Welco back to reality."
At the sa ti, a flood of mories that had not previously existed ca pouring in, returning Him to the mont ten years earlier that determined the outco, the instant when the gates to the Land of Eternal Night were sealed.
The Dawn Witch, hurt and unable to withstand the imrsion of Scorching Sun Power, succumbed, followed by the gospel from the divine echoing in the Third Prince’s mind.
Everything settled in the dust, concluding with His victory.
However, this ti, ti did not stop there but was delayed for a period.
Above the clouds, sothing obscured the radiance of the Sun King, delaying the arrival of the "gospel" for a mont. In addition to the pursuers from Universe Company and the Chamber of Comrce, special beings began to erge in this Star Zone, swarming in groups, one after the other, like a shadow interposing between the scorching sun and the Holy City.
Almost simultaneously, another figure shattered the window and burst into the secret base set up by the Dawn Witch.
The Sun King looked at her with disbelief and rage—the unexpected figure was Yelena, the Judge of the Ashen Church.
She should have been the most devout, most loyal person to the Church.
But now, she had taken up the torch, and its golden fla returned to its original form, the fla in the eye sockets of the skull turning back to an ominous green.
"Stop, stop right now!"
The Sun King roared with a voice near to howling, "If you do this, the Void Demon, the Void Demon will—!"
This was not the first ti He had done this; the inexplicable familiarity grew clearer, making Him realize that no matter how He tried, He could not influence what was about to happen.
Because this was the real world.
What He faced was not sothing unfolding before Him, but a mory He had forcibly excised.
The summoning ritual was initiated once more.
The person who erged from the passage was the last one He wanted to see.
As soon as His vision and instincts cleared, the Sun King saw a throne, a dark throne atop a high tower, and the remnants of mory at that mont turned into daggers stabbing at Him.
He was defeated.
Despite employing every trick He had against the devil who returned from the Land of Eternal Night, He could not shake Him in the slightest.
Beyond Life Energy, the Blue Star person had brought back Strength belonging to the Void Demon from the Land of Eternal Night.
And now, probably even the remnants of the scorching sun—sothing that should have been His.
He witnessed the collapse of the Golden Throne and the disintegration of the Church.
After that, the vision plunged into eternal darkness.
"Hmm? What about the Void Demon?"
He heard a voice filled with mockery.
Following the source of the voice, the Sun King lifted his gaze, and the figure he saw was both familiar and sowhat strange. Her voice overlapped with the herald’s as if welcoming Him back to this cold, real world.
"...Dark Night!"
Even though her appearance had undergone earth-shattering changes, he still recognized the witch before him.
But now, he had lost the ability to resist and was being toyed with in the palm of her hand like a toy.
The Dark Night Witch’s laughter was mixed with a hint of admiration, "This is the 168th ti, and you haven’t collapsed yet. You truly are a toy that endures."
In another version of the story about the Sun King, the pope who had deceived the world was utterly defeated. Duan Mingyuan had kept his promise, and before the passage closed, he sent this remaining consciousness to the Land of Eternal Night.
She could have easily crushed the despicable man’s last bit of soul with a pinch, but then, the Dark Night Witch had a better idea.
That would have been too rciful for the pope, actually aiding him towards release.
"It’s ti to get ready."
"Ready? Dark Night, what are you—"
"Your 169th dream is about to begin."
Darkness enveloped him once again.

anwhile, on Blue Star, at Cloud Sea Academy.
This was the tenth year since the victory of the "War of Eternal Night".
A starship docked at the Star Harbor in Yunlong City, and all the teachers and students of the academy were prepared. An important person, who was also their old friend, was to visit the academy today.
This was Judge Yelena’s ninth visit to Blue Star, and everybody knew the purpose of her beeline to the academy as soon as she disembarked from the starship.
To visit so old friends.
Of course, there were also so official reasons for her visit.
After the "War of Eternal Night
