June 1, 1803.
After the operation was over, the temporary alliance publicly disclosed all the information they had gathered about the Runcandel of Evil god that they had been facing.
The relationship between Evil god and Despair, the identity of the deceased prophet, the reasons for Diphus's corruption, and more.
And the people of the world wore black ribbons on their chests to mourn the people who had been sacrificed to Evil god until now.
It was also to show the temporary alliance that even ordinary people were fighting alongside them.
It was an expression of their determination not to sit idly by and contribute to the despair caused by Evil god.
Those who wore black ribbons did not prepare for exile or fall into mourning. They made efforts to continue their "ordinary" lives, resisting the fear of Evil god in any way they could.
That was the way ordinary people resisted Evil god.
The entire continent was rallying in such a way.
Of course, there were also those who did not do so.
Some shouted that the temporary alliance was lying to hide their incompetence, and some whispered that the Runcandels of Tikan, Joshua and Diphus, Myu and Anne, and Ran and Vigo were already in league with Evil god.
But even those people, deep down in their hearts, had only one wish.
For this hell to end soon.
For anyone to restore the world to its original state.
[Now, only the final summit remains...]
Orgal said.
Currently, the temporary alliance is holding its final meeting in the Tikan Palace in preparation for the battle with Evil god.
"It seems that the spread of despair, confirmed by Veradin's map, has noticeably slowed down. The harvest from the previous operation was quite significant."
Kadun said. This time, Zipfel sent him, not Veradin, in this meeting as representative.
From a purely objective perspective, the temporary alliance had not suffered much in this battle.
Although they had saved only about 30% of the total prisoners, they had rescued nearly 30,000 people, and there had been no significant losses to their main forces in the process.
On the other hand, the Garden of Swords had suffered a severe blow.
First, the Prophet was annihilated, along with the land of Rikalton.
The explosion that started from the sphere during the final battle didn't stop until it wiped out Rikalton on the map.
Myu and Anne also met a perfect death due to the annihilation of the Prophet.
No one witnessed their final moments. Only a hollow record remained as a reminder of that fact.
No one cared or mourned properly for them.
It was an utterly miserable death.
Even the Tona brothers, who had suffered the longest torment from Myu and Anne, were already forgetting about them.
There was no value in remembering them.
Above all, the biggest change was the partial disappearance of the power of Evil god, along with Diphus.
<The evil god weaken.>
Even Valeria's record magic couldn't determine exactly how much the evil god had weakened.
However, it was clear that the formation of the battleship 'Ram' had completely stopped after the Rikalton operation.
That meant not only had the evil god weakened, but its growth had also come to a halt.
Therefore, now there were two crucial factors in the final battle.
Can Jin defeat Rosa one-on-one?
Can the combined forces of the temporary alliance handle the firepower of the completed battleship Ram?
"I heard that luckily, the forces of the temporary alliance were not overwhelmed by the army of chaos in the Rikalton Castle. Beyond that, if it weren't for the Prophet and the Fourth flagbearer, they probably would have been completely overwhelmed. Excluding the evil god and the battleship Ram, we have a clear overall advantage from the rest of chaos forces."
Therefore, Kadun proposed that Ram be handled by himself, Orgal, and a few others from the highest ranks, while the rest would be deployed to fight the army of chaos.
"It's like putting up a barrier. For your battle with Rosa. Just like the last operation, no other factors should interfere with your fight. The Fourth flagbearer and the Prophet were still captured by you in the end, but... the evil god will be different."
Jin replied with mockery.
"Can you handle the battleship Ram? During the first battle, your fleet couldn't respond at all to Ram's main cannons. Especially you, Kadun, you would have died. Because of the consecutive injuries you suffered since that day, you couldn't participate in the last operation either."
Kadun couldn't shout back as his temperament demanded in the face of Jin's open confrontation.
"I don't understand why you're here at the meeting instead of Veradin."
"With Kelliark's absence, I am the highest authority of the clan."
"You, the proud and arrogant Kadun, give such a docile response. It seems like you received an order from Veradin not to cause any accidents at the meeting, huh?"
[Now that there's only one big fight left, there's no need to waste unnecessary emotions on each other. Although it's temporary, this alliance is unique, so let's make a little more effort to achieve a successful outcome.]
When Orgal spoke, Kadun turned his gaze away from Jin.
[Anyway, unlike the first attack, I have regained some of my strength, and the Prophet is gone. Therefore, the evil god won't be able to control the battleship Ram properly while fighting you. Originally, the Prophet would have used Ram on behalf of the evil god.]
Jin looked at Orgal and Kadun alternately without responding.
Considering the meaning behind the phrase 'temporary alliance'.
'Kinzelo and Zipfel have no intention of using their ultimate weapons, even at this point where Rosa is clearly weakened.'
Orgal's recovery and history manipulation.
As Kinzelo and Zipfel, there was no reason for them to reveal their trump cards now.
Because they should be used when the fight against the evil god is over and the power struggle begins again.
Or perhaps they really can't be used at all.
Because Orgal's recovery requires the remnants of the sun god, and history manipulation requires Valeria's ability.
'Whichever it is, things won't go according to your wishes alone. After the evil god is dealt with, it will be your turn...'
Although they have crossed life and death situations several times as a temporary alliance, Jin still saw Zipfel and Kinzelo as another form of evil god.
One side wants to control the world through the sun god, and the other side wants to control it through history manipulation.
"Well, if you're confident, then fine. But now, we need to make one agreement."
"An agreement?"
[Suddenly, what is it?]
Both Kadun and Orgal expressed their doubts simultaneously.
"After the final battle with the evil god is safely over, the temporary alliance will naturally be disbanded. At that time, I believe we should agree not to attack each other for a minimum of one year."
[It is a necessary condition.]
"I don't think such an agreement gains any enforceability just by stamping it on a document and announcing it to the public. It's meaningless talk. After the war with the evil god ends, everyone can do as they please, regardless of the damage they've suffered."
"Even if it's just a verbal agreement, you must accept it. As the one most likely to be severely injured in the war with the evil god would be me."
"Even if we were temporary allies, a war that has been going on for a thousand years cannot end like this. I will put a stamp on the document, but don't expect much. I will refuse any verification through Azmil's contractor."
"Why bring up Euria? You should know that she is not in a good state right now and cannot use her abilities. It's better if you keep being honest with me, but what if I hold a grudge and side with the evil god?"
"Kahaha!"
Kadun burst into laughter at Jin's words.
"Do you think you can do that? You would be dead, and you are not someone who can side with the evil god. I haven't heard such an amusing joke in a long time."
"I am glad you found it amusing."
"Seeing you suddenly talk about this before the final battle, it seems like you have confidence in the fight against the evil god."
Jin responded with a smile.
[As Kadun said, a document or anything similar cannot have enforceability, so how about we show our good faith to each other?]
"We don't mind, but the 12th flagbearer might not like it. Since you brought up the agreement, it's not just to make the one who breaks it receive public criticism after the alliance is broken."
Jin nodded his head.
"That's right. We need the world to know which side breaks the promise first. It seems like it will be Zipfel judging by the current atmosphere."
"Well, First of all, I don't think it's something to hear from a person who took other people's forces and used their secrets. We'll find out soon enough."
It was a conversation about Hedo and the Holy Land.
Kadun was convinced that Jin would be the first to make a move right after the final battle with the evil god ended.
'If the 12th flagbearer easily overpowers the evil god as we expect, he might attack us immediately afterward. There is a high possibility that an agreement was already made with Kinzelo. So, we need to engage in the final battle against the evil god while preserving the maximum external forces.'
Kadun stood up from his seat.
"That's enough for today. It would be better if Veradin came to tomorrow's meeting instead of you."
Orgal also shrugged his shoulders and stood up.
[We don't want to see this kind of atmosphere in tomorrow's meeting. After all, the evil god is still firmly resisting in Huphester.]
Both of them left the conference room with their attendants.
Jin watched their battleships disappear into the distance for a while, and during that time, Kashmir entered the conference room.
"King Kashmir, how is Euria?"
Since Euria cannot currently use her abilities anyway. So Kadun didn't suspect anything when Jin said that.
It was a known fact among all the allies that Euria had suffered a great mental shock when she foresaw the future of Rikalton Castle before the operation.
However, there was another reason why Euria couldn't use her abilities at the moment.
"She has gotten much better. But I think she needs to rest for a while to stabilize herself."
"Even though she was already suffering from the torment of seeing the future of Rikalton Castle, I burdened her with more.
"I am very proud of my daughter, and her chaos from the verification is also being purified. Please don't worry too much."
Last night.
Euria was exposed to some chaos while verifying the words of 'Lynn Milcano,' who suddenly came to Tikan.
-Guardian of order chief…
-I have something to tell you, 12th flagbearer.
Lynn Milcano, the chief of the Guardian of order.
She was still on the side of 'Runcandel.'
