CHAPTER 24: Alfa's New Determination

"Is this really good? You're still very young. Don't you think it's very impulsive to decide to dedicate your entire life to someone like that?"

"No, I won't regret it. I've seen the brightest sun, my eyes will no longer be attracted to fireflies."

Alpha said with a smile and confidence.

She will never fall in love with anyone else.

Because the best is already beside her.

To her, even if all the remaining men in the world were put together, they wouldn't be as brilliant as Leon.

"Seriously, but remember to be careful, because the sun's glare is so strong that it could accidentally burn your eyes."

"It doesn't matter if my eyes are burned, because it is of my own free will."

"You have truly become stupid. Surely, there is no more dangerous emotion in this world than love. Even an intelligent person will instantly become a fool after falling in love with someone. Ah~ Anyway, I have already given you my advice." "

CC said helplessly.

After she saw the elf smiling and eager to devote herself to Leon, she only felt angrier.

She didn't want to continue talking.

The witch took the rest of the pizza and planned to leave.

However, at this moment.

"Thank you for your advice, but I will definitely become Leon's strength, realize his ideals, and destroy the cult of Diablos."

"Really? Come on- huh? Wait, what did you just say?"

"Eh? Fulfill your ideal and destroy the Diablos cult... What happened?"

CC, who was about to leave, stopped.

She blinked her eyes and looked at Alpha blankly, then the witch laughed.

"Hehe, what are you doing? Turns out you don't know yet. It seems like I was worrying for nothing."

"Huh? What does that mean?"

"It's nothing~ I just feel like I'm overthinking it. After all, you don't even know his true desires, so it's useless no matter how much you say."

CC shrugged and sat down again.

"Leon's true wish... What does it mean? Please tell me quickly!"

Alpha frowned and suddenly felt panicked, as if she had discovered that she had made a mistake about something very important.

CC crossed her arms and laughed.

"Your ideal is not something as trivial as destroying the Cult of Diablos."

"Eh?"

"I've been with Leon for a few years now, so I know that even though he always talks about wanting to be king, that's just the starting point of his ideal... And I tell you, his dream is an absolutely unattainable illusion ."

The green-haired witch said assertively.

There was sadness and regret in her tone. The boy's true desire was so difficult that even conquering the world seemed easy in comparison.

What Leon really wants to do is change the world.

Change to be full of beauty and happiness.

A world more dreamy and perfect than a fairy tale.

Hearing this would make anyone laugh. I can only say that it is truly a dream that only children could have.

The witch lived for countless years and witnessed and experienced countless tragedies. Therefore, CC can assert that the essence of the world is cruelty.

It is a set of tragedies that can never be changed.

"You should ask Leon himself for the details."

"Wait, CC!!"

"Just destroy a mere shadowy organization? How can this person take such a trivial matter as his ideal? After all, he has no enmity with the Cult of Diablos, right?"

"..."

Alpha was stunned.

In fact, it was her and the girls who went through [Demonic Possession] who had a grudge against the Diablos cult. It was only because of their own prejudices that they thought that Leon's dream was also the destruction of the cult.

Alpha realized at that moment that this was a stupid mistake of hers.

The person she admires so much.

How could his dream be so small?

She decided to devote herself to him, but in the end, she even misunderstood his true intentions.

Alpha's cheeks were hot now, and he felt very embarrassed.

--------

"I understand. I'm sorry, I didn't really tell you about this, Alpha. There's nothing I can do about the misunderstanding."

"But I don't understand something..."

"Alpha, being able to understand something without explaining it is just a luxury for few people, so this wasn't your fault."

Leon touched the girl's head to comfort her.

He indeed had no grievances against the cult, and no matter how many bad things the other party did, it didn't affect Leon.

Yet he decided to destroy it.

It's not just for Alpha and the others.

It's because the Cult of Diablos cannot exist in the [Perfect World] that Leon aims to create. In the world he wants to create, this cult is simply a plague that must be purged.

It's something as simple as that.

"Leon, I want to know more about you."

"I want to know what your ideals are."

Alpha spoke as she looked into Leon's eyes.

"If you want to know, then let me tell you, my true and complete ideal is to create a perfect world under my control, where everything is according to my preferences."

There was a dazzling light in Leon's eyes.

Alpha, who was so close to him, was shocked by his domineering and heroic spirit, and her body was filled with passion and emotion as she listened to her ideals.

"What I want to create is an ideal land, a gentle and beautiful dream world that is like being immersed in honey."

"There will be no tragedies, no darkness and crime, no racial or religious discrimination, and there will be no more [Demonic Possession]!"

"A world of only prosperity and peace."

As he said these words, Leon's pupils seemed to have the flames of determination burning.

And it was exactly as the witch said.

This is such an overrated ideal. Because it is so beautiful, it looks so dreamlike and fake that it cannot even be imagined.

But Leon will challenge that dream!

He is already in this world, an unknown that should not belong to this world.

How could he be content with being someone ordinary?

Since he wants to live, of course he must live a dazzling and wonderful life!

"I will definitely realize this elusive dream that no one dares to dream of, and then I will become the god of the new wor- Ehem! I mean, the king of this world!"

(Damn, I almost finished that sentence.)

Leon showed an uninhibited smile and opened his arms as if he were going to embrace the entire sky despite the words he almost spoke.

Alpha couldn't help but be robbed of her vision, her heartbeat, and her thoughts.

She felt her blood boil, so she couldn't help but kneel down, raise her hand and place it over her heart, and lower her head to the young man.

"Midnight-sama... No, my king! Please allow me to be your strength. I will dedicate my life and my body to you and your ideals without leaving anything behind!"

"Hmm, great, I accept."
