Prologue

"Is...this really...the end?"

I muttered when I saw these people who besieged me and betrayed my trust.

"Fuck...this is the...end, isn't it?"

I looked down at my body to check the damage I got from the trap set by these people. Seeing the weapons that pierced my body in different parts such as my heart, my soul, my throat, body, organs and even my legs and arms. I know that my time is near and I will die sooner.

"W... why?"

As I looked up and saw the people who betrayed me. Some of them are grinning at my situation, especially my beloved wife. The Dragon Empress and the one whom I trusted the most before. Right now, she's being held by my sworn enemy, The Ascended One and the one I wanted to kill the most.

"I see, she's...a part...of this betrayal"

Seeing the people who betrayed me. I feel the rage and emotions of regret and sadness that dwell at the bottom of my still-conscious mind. The rage of betrayal and being put in this near-death state. I regret trusting these people and sadness because I trusted them and they did this to me.

"Why...for?"

"For...opposing the war...with the...Heavenly Spirit?"

These people want to ascend to immortality by breaking the Heavenly Spirit in this realm. That will lead to a broken Heavenly Spirit that signifies the death of this realm and also, the death of billions of people including my sect which is cherished the most.

Many signs have appeared that there might be some sort of betrayal but I choose to ignore it believing that it's not that big enough deal to take interest in. I didn't know that this sort of betrayal was a plan to kill me, The Heavenly Demon leading to this current situation where I'm dying.

"I'm a...fool"

"I should...just follow...my instincts before...and this will never happen"

Seeing my friends contemplating my near-death state such as Sword Dragon who is my sworn brother and the one I looked up to before. The Elven Princess that I saved in the Forest of Death, The Priestess of The End which I grew up with, The Dragon General who is also my sworn brother and the one who I have fought with in tough times and many more. Seeing these people whom I trusted with my life and cherished like family ended up piercing me their weapon broke my heart.

"Haaa...fuck"

As I feel my breath tightening and my body feeling the eerie cold snow of death. This cold feeling did make me understand that I will die now so as a last resort.

I wished to the Heavenly Spirit of this realm that they want to kill.

"P-Please, Just give me...one more chance to...live"

And then after that, The Ascended One strongly swung his sword at the dying Heavenly Demon leading to him being cut off his head and sealing his fate as he died.
