"Ugh!" Aizen rolled on the floor, still holding Sibel. Sharp shards of stone flew behind him, and a gust of black magic ripped through his skin, threatening to tear it. "Aizen! Are you alright?" With a suppressed groan, Aizen rose. His body was covered in blood. It flowed ceaselessly from wounds visible through his torn clothes. But his eyes remained vivid and alive. Before Aizen's gaze, a massive Leviathan stood before him. He had become a black mass, unrecognizable. Every time he gestured,…-

“Ugh…” A thunderous roar shook the earth, and Sibel’s eyes shot open. His head felt as if it was going to explode. It was as if his brain had been taken out and ground in a blender. “…What is this, an earthquake?” Sibel staggered to his feet. The floor was shaking. White powder pitter-pattered from the ceiling. Memories returned. Leviathan, the Holy King, and the terrible words he had whispered before Sibel passed out. “A new world.” and “The sound of death.” “Are you…

“Where the hell is he?” Aizen pushed his way through the crowd. He’d been scouring the palace all night, but Sibel had vanished without a trace. Now he was searching outside the palace. Of all days, it had to be the day of the blessing ceremony. The city’s people had gathered in the plaza, leaving the streets crowded shoulder to shoulder. His head throbbed. Everything was chaos already. ‘Something’s definitely happened.’ He had a bad feeling about this. Then it began. A…

“Where did he go?” Aizen, who was worried that Sibel might cause some kind of accident, didn’t wait for the Holy King any longer and withdrew quickly. Sure enough, Sibel was nowhere to be seen. “The moment I take my eyes off him, he causes trouble.” He briefly regretted not just taking Sibel along even though the office was dangerous, but it was already too late. For now, finding Sibel was the top priority. But in this place where he couldn’t use magic, the only way to find him was to…

He knew that if his identity was revealed here, he might die, yet he had to figure out what the other person was thinking. But for some reason, he couldn’t even bring himself to make excuses or deny it. Those were the eyes of someone who had already seen through everything. “You’re trembling.” The Holy King’s gaze landed Sibel’s fingertips. At that moment, Sibel felt something strange. It was a moment he was sure he had experienced once before. Why? Why did this Holy King he had…

The walls were white to the point of looking as pale as snow-covered mountains, and the delicate gold ornaments that filled their gaps stretched out like veins, wrapping around the entire palace. The Holy Palace looked like a massive work of art. “Wow.” Sibel admired the overwhelming size and splendor of the palace, incomparable to his own Demon King’s castle. It was a scale that could never come from his imagination. While Sibel looked around in wonder, Aizen simply searched for the correct…

Aizen stared at the sword placed before him without saying a word. “This is…” Unlike most holy swords that glowed with dazzling light, this one exuded a calm blue aura. Its energy was clear and cool. “Unlike a holy sword, this one can be used regardless of your current state.” “Old man. Who are you giving this to? Have you lost your mind?” Aizen already knew what it was. The Sword of Dawn, forged from the stolen dawn of the gods, was a divine relic that could contain both holy…

Human brains are simple, when they don’t know something, they don’t. But once they’ve learned a stimulus, it’s hard to go back to ignorance. Sibel wondered if the warmth spreading from his fingertips to his head had melted even his frontal lobe. He could feel Aizen’s body heat. The way Aizen treated people was always intense, no matter who they were, whether he liked them or not. Always the same, always burning. Just like now, when his touch felt like it could devour…

The high priest, clad in ornate sacred robes embroidered with gold thread, possessed a calm air. The soft smile he wore out of habit and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes brought comfort to those who saw him. “Oh dear, my hands are shaking as I try to open this door so suddenly. Haha.” The priest they met in the hallway seemed flustered in front of the high priest. But, he soon unlocked the lock. “The key goes in with difficulty. Haha.” Why on earth do you keep making that…

“What brings you here?” “Ah, the priest in charge of your shift said something suddenly happened, and asked me to tell you he’d be a little late.” Sibel quickly replied, and the knights let out a sigh. “That guy’s always like that. He’s the only one who’s busy, huh? Never thinks about how hard it is for us.” They sounded pretty irritated. Well, it wasn’t Sibel’s problem anyway. The holy knights grumbled about the absent priest for a while, then turned to look at the…
