Chapter 930

“Haah….”

I exhaled a breath tinged with the scent of blood, my gaze fixed on the Black Tower Master trapped within the rosy ice.

‘As expected, he’s still alive.’

Perhaps because the Silent Spirit World remained intact, the Black Tower Master retained a faint spark of life despite his body being severed into four pieces and his heart bursting from his chest.

-Just as you said, the bastard is like a worm.

Wrath exhaled in exasperation.

-No matter how much you crush him, he keeps wriggling.

He furrowed his brow, remarking that such a tenacious demonic nature was rare even in the Demon Realm.

‘That’s why I froze him.’

I lowered my right hand, from which rosy frost bloomed, and bit my lip.

‘Cutting with a blade won’t kill him.’

The Black Tower Master had returned here even after Chamber’s magic tore away his neck and heart.
Knowing he wouldn’t die from piercing vital points or severing his body, I had frozen him with the Silver Aurora.

-Using the True Demon King’s Silver Aurora through 【Lust】 is incredibly irritating, but….

Wrath nodded as he gazed at the Black Tower Master trapped within the rosy ice.

-Rust is still a Demon Lord. The worm has no means to recover his strength, so he’ll have no choice but to remain trapped as is.

He nodded, noting that the rosy chill cut off external energy, effectively sealing the Black Tower Master.

‘No. I have no intention of sealing him.’

Raon shook his head firmly.

‘I will kill him.’

Even if the Black Tower Master couldn’t escape that ice himself, someone from outside could shatter it. I would never allow him to break free, not even in death.

‘For that child’s sake.’

Roen had declared he would save Lencia by any means necessary, but I already knew the outcome. A detonation of demonic energy had occurred within the body of an ordinary girl—without divine or demonic intervention, she could never survive.
An explosion of magic occurred within the body of an ordinary Girl, so without the help of a god or demon, she could never survive.

Lencia’s final words asking him to take care of her younger siblings instead, and the face of that child who had shown a genuine smile for the first time—these memories made him want to kill the Black Tower Master, the root cause of all this, no matter what it took.

“Sigh…”

I summoned the flames of Manhwagong and called forth the dormant Wrath within me.
My vision blurred as though my Upper Dantian had shattered, but I bit my tongue and harmonized rage with flame.
My vision blurred as if my Upper Dantian had been damaged, but I bit my tongue and harmonized my anger and flames.

“I’ll burn it all down.”

Wrath’s frost is a power that freezes not only the enemy’s body, but also their spirit and soul. Everything that had been frozen had to be erased in one fell swoop.

Whoooosh!

In her mind, which ached as if pierced by needles, she dismantled Baek-eun’s aurora piece by piece and reassembled it into a new technique capable of killing the Black Tower Master.

“I’ll place an inescapable chain of death around your neck.”

I opened the wavering Mental World by resonating the ring of fire.

Crimson Chain.
The chains of Ryeon.

The chains of fire engulfed him in an instant, beginning to incinerate his very existence.
Chains of flame engulfed the Black Tower Master in an instant and began to burn away his very existence.

“What, what is this!”

The Black Tower Master attempted to use a teleportation spell the moment the ice binding him melted away, but the crimson flames consumed not only his demonic energy but his very incantations.

“Gaaaaaahhhhh!”

The chains of fire became a prison from which not even an ant could escape, melting the Black Tower Master’s flesh and bone. His agonized screams echoed from within the scarlet inferno.

“P-please, stop!”

The Black Tower Master cried out for mercy, experiencing such excruciating pain between the biting cold and searing heat that death seemed preferable.

“If you just let me out, I’ll tell you everything I know!”

He pounded against the scarlet chains, begging to be freed, promising to reveal all the secrets of Oma.

“Have you ever spared a single person who begged for their life?”

I gazed down at the Black Tower Master bound in chains, my eyes cold and merciless.

“Ugh…”

The Black Tower Master’s lips trembled a sickly pale blue, unable to find words.

“I have no need for your information. Simply die.”
“W-wait…”

Ignoring the Black Tower Master as he tried to speak again, I clenched my fist, commanding the scarlet chains.

Boom!

The chains of fire contracted in an instant, crushing the Black Tower Master’s very soul within them.

Kaboom!

The flames, compressed to their limit, detonated violently, and the Black Tower Master along with his demonic energy melted away without leaving even a spark behind.

Even in the faint breeze that swept across the area, no trace of the Black Tower Master’s presence remained. It seemed his very soul had been annihilated, not merely his physical form.

[It’s done. His presence has been completely erased.]

Zircon gazed at the darkened void and nodded slowly.

[My choice was indeed the right one.]

He nodded as if affirming that choosing himself rather than the Black Tower Master had been the correct decision.

-Why are you stealing the True Demon King’s lines!

Wrath brought his fist down on Zircon’s head with a furrowed brow.

[Ugh….]

Zircon’s serious expression lasted less than a second before tears welled up in his eyes and he bowed his head.

-Ahem!

Wrath stared at the flattened Zircon, then slowly crossed his arms.

-It’s over! That worm’s presence has been completely erased!

He recited the words Zircon had spoken and nodded his chin.

‘Is it really over?’
-It is. This time, he is truly dead.

Wrath smacked his lips, satisfied that freezing the creature’s soul and demonic energy with his silver aurora and binding him with chains of flame to prevent escape had been effective.

“Thank goodness….”

The moment he released his tension, the Heavenly Sword, Moonwheel Sword, and Soul Reaper Sword that he had been levitating with his Sword of Supremacy fell to the ground.
The moment he relaxed his grip, the Heavenly Sword, Mokryun Sword, and Soul Reaper Sword that had been floating with the Igieo Sword fell to the ground.

“I was really at my limit.”

He was at the edge of a cliff, both mentally and physically. If the Black Tower Master had withstood his final attack, it would not have been him who died, but himself.

“I was just lucky, that’s all… huh?”

When Raon closed and opened his eyes, a pale green jewel was floating above his head. It looked similar to an emerald, but it was slightly different.

[That’s Peridot. It seems to have emerged when that human died.]

Zircon nodded, saying that Peridot had returned to its original form as a Birthstone.

“Mm.”

As I raised my arm, Peridot descended into my palm as if it had been waiting for this moment.

“Chamber.”

I turned around to inform her of the situation. She was still glaring at me with both fingers pressed together.

“It’s over now. You can release your power.”
“Over….”

The moment Chamber heard that it was over, she closed her eyes and fell. She had poured all her strength and mental fortitude into that final moment and didn’t wake up.

“Chamber!”

I drew aura from my Dantian, which ached as if it might tear apart, and caught the falling Chamber.
As she descended to the ground, she began reverting to her child form, but since all her strength and mana had been depleted, her skin cracked and deep wrinkles like those of an old woman appeared.

‘She pushed herself to this extent….’

The last time I saw Chamber, she wasn’t in a state to use her ultimate technique, yet she tore away the meteorite and erased the Black Tower Master’s final attack to create one last opportunity for victory.
Without her intervention, there was no way I could have won.

‘Please.’

I pushed the remaining energy in my Dantian into her body so she could endure.

Boom!

I staggered as if about to collapse and barely landed on the ground. Since my strength was also depleted, I fell backward while leaving deep footprints on the ground.

“Olga!”

Holding Chamber in my arms, I called out the name of Saint Olga, who was with the Allied Forces.

“Ah!”

Olga stood frozen, still unable to accept that the Black Tower Master was dead, before rushing over urgently to check on Chamber.

“…Are you alright?”

Chamber’s vital energy was so faint that my chest ached as if pierced. The memory of Rimer’s death flashed through my mind, and my hands trembled uncontrollably.

“It’s very dangerous. But I’ll do whatever I can.”

Olga placed her hand, glowing with golden light, on Chamber’s chest, determined to at least keep her from dying.

“You step back. Even in a situation like this, she wouldn’t want to show herself in this state.”

She shook her head, unwilling to let Chamber be seen with wrinkles covering her entire body.

“Yes…”

I nodded briefly and stepped back. Just as Olga said, Chamber probably wouldn’t want to be seen like this, and there was nothing more I could do now.

‘No, there’s one more thing.’

I wiped the blood from my lips and bowed deeply to Chamber.

‘Thank you. Because of you. No, because the two of us worked together, we were able to defeat the Black Tower Master.’

I would need to do it again once she recovered, but before that, I wanted to offer my sincere gratitude.

I remained bowed toward the fallen Chamber for a long time.

“Ha…”

Karun exhaled sharply as he watched Raon bowing toward Chamber.

‘Did I really defeat him?’

Raon defeated the Black Tower Master?

In truth, I had thought the situation grew dire after the Black Tower Master opened the Silent Spirit World, and when Chamber returned alive and he gained the power of the angel Peridot, I believed the odds of victory had become slim.

Yet Raon and Chamber refused to yield even in such a perilous situation, clinging to the fight until the very end and ultimately toppling the Black Tower Master. It was almost impossible to believe, even witnessing it with my own eyes.

‘Could I have done the same?’

No. It would be difficult.

Even if I found myself in Raon’s position, I doubted I could fight as he did. The sight of him burning both body and soul to stand against the Black Tower Master sent chills down my spine.

‘There’s nothing else to say but that he’s remarkable.’

Raon’s power is not permanent. It’s merely a temporary force. Once we leave this place, I would likely be somewhat stronger than him.

Yet even I could not fight as Raon did here. This desperate battle was only possible because he was Raon Zigheart.

‘Perhaps I too have changed somewhat.’

The old me would have felt jealousy and resentment toward Raon’s accomplishments, but strangely, now I only felt gratitude and admiration for this boy.

‘Head of House….’

Becoming Head of House of Zigheart was a lifelong aspiration and desire. Even if Glen were to regain his youth, I had no intention of relinquishing the position, and I would never surrender it now.

Yet today, for the first time, I felt I could accept someone else sitting in that seat.

Swoosh!

Karun raised his chin as he cut down the Demons who would no longer resurrect.

“Eliminate the Demons as quickly as possible.”

He watched Raon gathering his strength with his eyes closed, his lips curling into a smile.

“We must welcome the true heroes of today.”

“Raon did it….”

Burren let out a hollow laugh as he watched Raon examining the Gate to Demon Realm.

“He really defeated the Black Tower Master!”

Even though it had been a two-against-one battle, I never expected Raon to erase the Black Tower Master.
I had prayed for him to win, but seeing it actually happen left me speechless.

“You didn’t believe in Raon?”

Martha tapped Burren’s shoulder and shook her head.

“I’ve been expecting this moment from the very beginning.”

She gazed at Raon and clenched her blood-soaked fists.

“Me too….”

Lunan nodded calmly, as if he had believed in Raon until the very end.

“I knew Raon would pull it off today….”

She gazed at Raon standing alone at the end of the battlefield and drew a faint smile.

“Your faith has never been betrayed.”

Mark Goeten nodded with his hand placed over his heart, his trust never wavering from the start.

“Raon!”
“My Lord!”
“Aaaaaaaaa!”

Dorian, Crain, and the swordsmen of Gwangpung Hall cut down the fleeing Demons and rushed toward me. They approached with tears glistening in their eyes and smiles on their faces, calling out my name.

“Young Master. It’s all over now, isn’t it?”

Yua grabbed my torn sleeve and asked.

“No…”

I shook my head as I gazed up at the Gate to Demon Realm.

“There’s still one step left.”

I had slain the Black Tower Master, but I hadn’t yet completely sealed the Gate to Demon Realm.
Only by destroying that gate would this war truly end.

“Wait just a moment longer.”

I stroked Yua’s head and then pushed off the ground, ascending once more toward the sky.

Whoooosh!

In a single breath, I reached the edge of the heavens and stood before the frozen Gate to Demon Realm.
Normally, Wrath’s frigid power should have naturally sealed the gate, but the Black Tower Master’s demonic energy had instead widened the gap further.

‘This is the final blow.’

If I closed this gate, the bitter and endless war would end. My strength was nearly exhausted, but I could not retreat.

Rummmmmble!

I wrapped the remaining glacial power of Glacia around the Heavenly Sword and drew Wrath’s fury from the depths of my soul.

‘I must endure.’

At the limits of both mind and body, I gathered every last ounce of strength and brought the Heavenly Sword down.

Craaaaaack!

Since more than half the gate was already frozen, there wasn’t much space left to cut through.

However, the Gate to Demon Realm made one final desperate effort, unleashing intense demonic energy to block the blade.

“Just die already.”

I bit my lip and poured more power into the Heavenly Sword.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

The demonic energy protecting the Gate to Demon Realm retreated in terror, and the gate began to freeze white once more.

Just as I thought it was all over and prepared to unleash the last of my strength, a bronze-colored arm suddenly shot through the remaining gap.

‘A Demon?’

I tried to sever the arm along with the gate, but the Heavenly Sword’s blade bounced off the Demon’s bronze skin without leaving a mark.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

The hand burst through the white frost and forcibly tore open the frozen Gate to Demon Realm.

Roooaarrr!

The Gate to Demon Realm opened once more, and terrifying demonic energy swirled forth. From the golden-gleaming center of the Demon Realm, a black-haired Handsome Young Man lifted his monocle.
In the center of the Demon Realm, shimmering with golden light, the black-haired Handsome Young Man lifted his monocle.

“You really did mess things up badly.”

The moment I saw his eerie smile, my heart sank with a thud.

“You…”
