Volume 1 Epilogue
It went quiet!
There was dead silence in the area!
There was also dead silence at the Empress and the other’s location as they watched the incomprehensible scene unfolded in front of them—the once magnificent Demon Mansion was now replaced by a heaps of rubbles and debris as if it was swept by a terrible storm that uprooted even the large trees and rocks in the surrounding area.
The group was filled with shock! They looked at Cian who was slowly descending as if being carried by the wind, as though they were staring at a monster. Roathuaria and her two daughters stared in shock and trepidation. At this very moment, they finally understand that the Second Prince they knew was nothing but a fictional character made from nonsensical rumors and hearsays—the real one in front of them, was a real monster!
Roathuaria bit her lips—she was right! The Royal Family is not something so easily touched!
She had known about her husband’s plans and schemes and has even warned him many times but now, she realized she too has yet to understand the real consequences of going against them!
She still underestimated the real horror behind the Royal Family…!
The eyes of several women, including Ruka and the Empress aid, were filled with an intense admiration and worship. As for the other Generals, their eyes were filled with respect and fear. Cian's power was really an eye-opener!
On the other hand, the Empress stared at the scene in front of her with a slight smile. She has some inkling about Cian’s true power. However, seeing what he could do still, she still found it unbelievable!
The Second Prince was known for being trashed in terms of magic and fighting combat. Although he can fight a little with magic or sword, it’s not to the point that can be seen impressive—he can fight normal humans without a problem but in terms of veteran knights, he would be easily defeated. Thus, seeing his nonsensical power now, that shock was really too great to handle!
“…Let’s go…people are starting to gather…” The Empress was the first one to snap out from daze and muttered, calling everyone out from their reverie.
“Your Majesty, His Highness did something flashy like this… is this really okay?!” Gustav asked with a worried expression.
“It’s fine… he should have some plans with him. Besides, even if without them, as long as I’m here, no one can touch him. I’ll support him even if the sky fell down…!” The Empress muttered without care and his figure slowly blurred, vanishing after a moment.
The narrative has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the infringement.
“…As you wish!” Gustav and the others immediately bowed.
As for Cian, he stood in the air for a few seconds, and savoring over the disaster he had created. Then, he suddenly felt various presences and when he narrowed his eye, he caught several people hurriedly coming over.
His cold eyes scanned the distance through the curtains of rain, seeing everyone regardless of their distance from the main scene; then, he suddenly looked upwards and shouted. ‘Aaaaaaahhhhhh!!!’ His roar filled the sky, almost like the sound of a thunderbolt would have, while the effect of his wild howl suppressed the hearts and desires of many experts in an instant!
Even the leaving Empress and the rest suddenly stopped from the sudden berserk cry. “What?!” They almost turned around simultaneously, as if they had agreed beforehand—seeing it was comical.
What is he doing now…? This was the question that had appeared in almost everyone’s mind as they stared aghast at Cian’s sudden strange actions.
There was a deathly silence!
Suddenly, a dense and gloomy aura was issued out. Then, it was promptly restrained.
However, this momentary explosion of aura was extremely terrifying that some of the weaker experts amongst these approaching or hiding ones instantly sensed the danger, and their hearts and brain started urging them to scuttle away, while some even stopped in their steads out of fear as their faces went pale from the fear of facing the terror behind this voice!
"Greetings, Demon Empire!! Greetings my Old Friends! You can call by my past name Cian Cahlo...However, now that the war has begun, names are irrelevant....Cian....Reaper.....call me whatever you wish. It is not worth living in this world with only despair exists.”
“… …”
“You Demons forced upon by arrogance and ego, all you've ever experience is despair...am I wrong?? Surely you have to understand my sorrow....at least a little." Cian laughed loudly: "That is why, fear my wrath, taste my fury—!! For I am JUSTICE!!”
Almost all of these approaching experts froze in their steads!
The voice was cold and it sounds like a curse. There seemed to be dark and sinister vibes in the voice… as if it had come straight from hell. It made the listeners feel uncomfortable in their ears.
What is this declaration…?
Those who have heard the name, all stood aghast and dumbstruck.
Who has the gall to act unruly in the Demon Empire…?!
Snapping out from their daze, the people who ahd stopped once again rushed towards the source of the voice—Duke Rabilla’s Mansion!
However, the moment they moved, that sinister aura once again spread out. However, its range was much greater this time around. And then, when they got closer, and the black figure with white mask appeared on their vision, suddenly, without warning, the surroundings become covered in darkness. The ground. The sky. The scenery. Everything is being enveloped by darkness. It’s so dark and cold that even the light has disappeared.
What?!
Everyone started to panic and their figures, one by one started falling into the ground…

Standing at the broken rubble of the once magnificent mansion, Cian stood calmly. Smiling faintly, he throws a glittering card at the rubble and then, turned around.
“…It’s been a long night…”
From the start to the end, he did not turn his head back even once!
It was as though the things which happened today were just like a passing cloud, not leaving a single trace within his heart.
