The entire area collapsed, burying a body alive beneath the rubble.
Surviving such a shock would be impossible, even for those with natural-born resilience.
Dont say such nonsense.
Originally, it was supposed to be just a cover to buy ti for escape.
The words of a madman who made an irrevocable choice without even a monts hesitation were beyond the prediction of a fortune-teller with the power to read the future.
You youre a demon
She was one who traversed dinsions, trampling countless beings and supporting an army.
An entity of calamity and the incarnation of evil itself.
That such a being, bewitched by soone she t only a day or two ago, suppressed even her survival instincts, essential for a selfish demon, and rushed towards him as if enchanted.
Such a case should not exist; how could she, who predicted the future based on precedent with the help of a God, foresee that?
Why do you dream of such loveto et your end with him?
Though she understood that it was inevitable through reading her past, she couldnt respect her despite feeling sympathy.
No matter how her life had been a torture of hope, wielding her stubbornness over him could never be called true love.
Foolish person.
Yes, no matter how pitiful, this poor and foolish woman could not be allowed to stay by her companions side.
Thud!
Just as she was about to turn her back without regret, sothing erged from the pit filled with rubble.
With a body no better than rags.
The demon, shaking off the fragnts embedded in her body, staggered towards her
Impossible. How can this be?
She had taken the full brunt of her most powerful spell.
Even though demons were more resilient than humans, she had no defense-specialized abilities.
If hit directly, it should have caused a fatal injury that would have rendered her unable to move.
Ah Airi
As that figure took one step with her tattered body and then leaped, Airi embraced the body of her companion, not herself.
I must protect Hyo-sung.
All her plans had co to naught.
Yet, determined to protect this person, she embraced him tightly.
Crash!
However, the one who had charged at them was not aiming for him but for her.
Pushed by the body that crashed into hers, she rolled on the ground, but her attacker, undeterred by her broken form, simply got up.
Airi Haven.
At that mont, her legs, ant to be spread out, crashed back into the ground, breaking her knees.
Despite this, she crawled on the ground, her eyes clearer than the stars in the sky, starting to shed tears of passion.
Where did these brats crawl out from, making a fuss in soones front yard since dawn?
The Smoke Dragon, Tashian Pheloi.
A being whose ti had co, yet due to her inherent nature, was not permitted to vanish from the world, the greatest and oldest disaster this world had ever created.
And a re bystander who, after providing weapons to her companion, had resolved never to interfere in the worlds fate unless his death was certain.
Tashian. Why are you here?
And you, what are you?
Had she lost her rationality to the extent that she couldnt sense her formidable presence?
The frenzied demon, forgetting even the act of strangling her, forced her damaged knees to stretch, readying herself to approach Tashian.
Why are you suddenly interfering? Are you after Hyo-sung, too?
What are you talking about? Why would he be here?
Tashian, frowning, swiftly shifted her gaze to the side.
There, she saw a man lying unconscious, oblivious to the chaos of the deserted city.
Woo Hyo-sung.
The man entrusted with the fate of humanity, destined to be destroyed by her own hands.
Why is he sleeping here like a fool?
Ah, right. So, youre after Hyo-sung, too.
A botherso demon started charging toward her as she pondered why he was here.
Great I actually prefer to fight! Co at , you damn
Bang!!
She flicked the annoying demons forehead with her finger, and her charging body was flung back, sprawling in the middle of the road.
Uh, ugh, ack
A blow strong enough to quell the madness that had been forcing her body to move beyond its limits.
No, it wasnt even an attack.
Like punishing a child, the dragon that sent her flying didnt show a trace of seriousness.
Hey, demi-god kid.
Yes, even in decline, a dragon was still a dragon.
As she swallowed hard at the sight, a voice ca from behind Airi, who was staring blankly at the situation.
Co here. If you dont want to get hit.
Yes, yes.
She didnt know why she was here, but whatever the reason, she couldnt afford to upset her.
Airi, leading her injured body closer at that command, stared up at the figure before her with uncertain eyes.
You know who I am, right?
Yes, yes. Ah, I know.
Looking up at the indifferent eyes, Airi felt a terror she had never experienced before.
The opponents she had faced before were sowhat equal, but the presence in front of her, despite having a human body, felt as imnse as if facing a mountain.
Like comparing a monster to a disaster.
One who could be a threat but still could be dealt with, versus one who could only wait to be affected.
You can sort of see the future, right? Then you must know what Im about to do.
Tashian Pheloi, indifferent to such assessnts, discarded the cigarette butt from her mouth and lit a new one.
Using that mont of respite, Airi, having sensed her future with her foresight ability, weakly smiled and said to her,
I uh would get hit ten seconds into the future Cant you let it slide?
Tashian Pheloi, with a cigarette dangling from her lips, looked at her listlessly.
Then, exhaling a puff of smoke, she looked down at her with indifferent eyes and asked,
You were supposed to get hit anyway; why cant we just skip over it?
