Chapter 135
The End and Nothingness (3)
Before everyone's eyes, Arthur raised the small bottle that contained nothingness, then placed it in his mouth.
Before swallowing it, he slowly turned his gaze toward the army of the underworld, then to the constellations standing beside him.
{As the ruler of the underworld, I command everyone… to retreat}
A heavy silence fell.
The entire army froze, then soon stirred, seething with anger.
They wanted to fight…
They wanted to die alongside their new king.
But Arthur's voice rose again, calm… and decisive:
{This is an order.
Anyone who disobeys… will truly die, with no return.
I am your king, so listen to my commands}
Everyone looked at him in shock and disbelief, then their gazes shifted toward Hades.
{Why are you looking at me?}
Hades said coldly.
{I am not your ruler.
The king said retreat… so retreat}
With those words, the entire army of the underworld withdrew, despite the fury boiling in their chests.
{You as well}
Arthur said this while pointing at:
the Great Sage, Equal of Heaven,
the First Sword of Goryeo,
Persephone,
and Hades.
The four froze at the calmness of his voice.
{Boy… are you a fool or what?}
The First Sword of Goryeo stepped forward to speak, but did not finish.
He felt that dark aura beginning to coil around Arthur's body—dense… suffocating… terrifying.
Arthur smiled a quiet smile, then raised his head and shouted powerfully toward the army of constellations:
{This is the final warning!
Whoever wants to live, retreat now,
and whoever wants death… stay}
The constellations burst into laughter, mockery and ridicule.
But at that moment, Uriel moved and stood beside Persephone.
{Uriel!
Do you want to tarnish Eden's reputation with your foolish actions?!}
A beautiful angel shouted angrily.
Uriel's body trembled with fear… but she did not take a single step back.
{Very well… I warned you}
For the last time, Arthur raised his head and looked at the display screen that was still broadcasting the slow and painful deaths of Yi Shun and Shin Yooseung.
He spoke in a low, human… broken voice:
"I'm sorry…
for being a bad older brother, guys"
With those words, Arthur swallowed the potion.
| The supreme power of the terrifying entity "Cthulhu" within you is being consumed |
| You are now attempting to consume 15% of Cthulhu's power |
| Good luck… due to the strength of your body as a constellation, you have a high chance of success |
|Kill them all, Arthur|
Arthur smiled at Cain's messages…
then—
The power began to burn within him.
His veins, his insides, his organs…
Everything ignited with unbearable pain.
Arthur bent over, clutching his head, and collapsed to the ground.
'Damn… damn…
My body will break under this cursed power'
Violent dark sparks fused around his body, pressing down on him mercilessly.
His body was on the verge of shattering under Cthulhu's destructive force.
And at that moment—
He heard a voice.
A faint voice…
coming from the blue screen.
"Save me, big brother…"
Arthur slowly raised his head.
The screen showed the shattered bodies of Yi Shun and Shin Yooseung.
Bones protruding, bodies torn apart, blood flooding the ground.
A scene of brutal killing… unimaginable.
But in their final moments, the two children spoke in extremely faint voices—
voices Arthur had not heard before, because his rage had drowned everything.
Now… it was clear.
Blood flowed from their mouths,
tears streamed down,
their bodies trembled with fear and pain,
as they clung to each other.
"Save me, big brother…"
Arthur heard their final wish.
Then the screen replayed the scene once more.
At that moment, an overwhelming dark aura exploded around Arthur's body.
A dense, terrifying power beyond description.
Arthur opened his eyes violently.
In a fraction of a second—he disappeared.
He appeared before Manua, just one step away.
Arthur slowly turned his head and looked at him.
{Yes…
I'm doing all of this for two children}
He said it in a low… calm… terrifying voice.
Manua's body trembled from the aura surrounding Arthur.
No one understood what had happened.
But in the next moment—
Manua's body exploded into hundreds of pieces.
Arthur stood in place, his head slightly tilted.
A pure and beautiful constellation stepped forward,
with radiant white wings
and a sword glowing with holiness.
{I am the Sword of the Highest Paradise, Michael…
and I will kill you}
Michael advanced ten steps.
Arthur did not move.
From afar, Uriel looked at him, gripped her sword, and wanted to rush forward to defend him—
but Persephone grabbed her hand.
{Let me go!
Arthur will die like this!}
Persephone did not speak.
But in her mind, an image appeared…
one she had seen before at the banquet of constellations.
Sweat began to drip from her hand.
Uriel noticed this and looked into Persephone's eyes—
they trembled with sorrow and pain.
{This boy…
he's about to release all his emotions}
{What?}
The Great Sage, Equal of Heaven, sighed.
{You foolish brat…
why did you suppress your emotions?
Let them out!
Release them!
And shatter the world with them if you must!}
He shouted at the top of his voice.
At that moment, Arthur's body shook violently.
A roar emerged from his depths.
He ground his teeth so hard that blood spilled from his mouth.
He raised his head toward the sky,
opened his mouth,
and screamed.
A scream that literally shook heaven and earth.
Everyone covered their ears from the sheer intensity of the sound.
It was unbearable.
Blood began to flow from the ears of everyone around him.
As for Michael, who was only five steps away from Arthur, he collapsed to the ground under the weight of the roar.
With difficulty, he raised his head toward the being standing before him.
Arthur was bleeding profusely from his eyes, nose, and mouth,
his blood flowing endlessly,
his shining silver hair whipping violently in the turbulent wind.
The aura around his body trembled like madness, as if it were a living entity on the verge of exploding.
Arthur slowly raised his hands toward the sky.
{Air Shatter}
With those words, the air around him compressed.
It wasn't just pressure—
it was absolute crushing.
Air, earth, energy…
everything folded in on itself under an unimaginable force.
The immense pressure descended upon the nearby constellations,
crushing them in place,
their bodies turning into shapeless, lifeless masses.
Arthur lowered his hands calmly, then turned his gaze toward the Eden Nebula.
{All of you… will die}
With those words, he moved.
A speed unseen, imperceptible.
Arthur charged toward the Eden Nebula and began tearing apart angels one after another.
Pure white wings scattered in every direction,
and the holiness of heaven shattered into fragments.
He left nothing behind.
The Eden Nebula… was torn apart until nothing of it remained.
And when he reached the Scribe of Heaven, Metatron—
Metatron stood there, smiling calmly.
At that moment, a great light emerged behind his back.
{The Wall of Good is watching you}
{The Wall of Good judges you to death}
The world itself began to close in on Arthur.
The sky descended toward him,
the الأرض rose upward,
as if existence itself had decided to crush him between its hands.
The sky and earth collided with unbelievable force.
Arthur stood between them, raising his hands with grandeur,
bearing the weight of the sky itself.
His muscles began to tremble violently.
The sky was about to crush his body.
But—
Someone moved calmly beside him.
A person with soft golden hair,
and a bright smile tinged with arrogance.
It was the Great Sage, Equal of Heaven.
{Such a trick…
who would have thought you'd fall for it, just as I once did, brother?}
He said this while looking at the sky above them.
For the Great Sage, Equal of Heaven…
had gone through a similar hell when he faced Buddha.
In the next moment, he struck the ground with his left foot… then the right.
Then he raised his hands and pushed the sky together with Arthur.
His full power surged forth.
And the sky was slowly lifted off Arthur's body.
{Go…
I will hold the sky for you, brother}
Arthur lowered his hands and looked at the Great Sage.
The sky trembled violently above him,
yet the Great Sage remained steady.
That gentle, arrogant smile never left his face.
As if the sky were nothing more than a light, transparent object,
one he could carry forever if necessary.
Arthur placed his hand on his sword.
And took a samurai stance in holding it.
{What are you doing?}
{Great Sage…
you just said I'm your brother, didn't you?}
{Yes.
I acknowledge you as my brother, Arthur}
{And what kind of brother…
leaves his brother to carry the sky for him?}
The Great Sage smiled.
Arthur raised his head toward the sky.
{I am that kind of brother…
who will cut the sky, if it falls upon his brother}
He raised his sword high, then brought it down with all his might.
{Heaven-Cleaving Slash}
Arthur shouted and struck.
The sky trembled violently beyond description.
Then—
It split into two.
The sky vanished from above them,
and the beautiful black space appeared beyond it.
Metatron sighed in irritation as he looked at Arthur.
{Arth—}
But Arthur placed his finger on his lips.
{Shhh…
don't speak.
There's something I want to do}
He placed his hand on Metatron's head.
{Wall Drain}
A violent, dark energy surged into Metatron's body.
The wall began to be torn from him mercilessly.
{What?!
What are you doing?!
Stop! Please stop!}
Metatron screamed in fear and panic,
feeling his power being stripped away.
{Cain… put this in storage}
|Yes, Arthur|
The Wall of Good was sealed and placed into storage.
Metatron's body trembled,
then he collapsed to the ground, powerless.
Arthur raised his sword…
to finish him.
But at that moment, a weeping angel stood before the blade of his sword.
{Uriel… what are you doing?}
{Please, Arthur…
I beg you…
don't kill any more of my people}
She was crying.
Pain tore through her voice.
She looked toward the Eden Nebula…
only a few had survived.
At that moment, Arthur struggled within himself.
Hatred in his mind screamed: kill him.
Kindness in his heart whispered: spare him… for her sake.
Arthur sighed quietly.
Then he stepped back.
And moved toward the Vedas Nebula—
but found that they had surrendered.
{We surrender}
{Just… don't kill us}
{This is our defeat}
