Scepter of Thorns

Chapter 108 107. Twilight

Kellos knelt on the huge clock face of the Ruins of Eternity. This always elegant man was disheveled at the moment, and his blond hair was so dull that it seemed to have lost its color.He propped himself up with the needle sword, and his wings trembled because of his movements.

Like a defeated beast.

"It's you." Kylos said hoarsely, "You gave Amiens the power of concealment, killed the God of Darkness with his hands, and told him my vitals. Edward is just a shield, you summoned him on purpose Confuse me and make me ignore the real 'intervener'."

The scarlet clock was silent.

"In order to give Amiens the source of strength, you must be injured, otherwise you would have severely injured me by now, instead of just watching." The God of Chaos watched it, and said slowly, "We have been fighting for so many years, every round Repeat. Thousands of years ago, I was invited by the God of Light to share power and glory, but you secretly destroyed my divine body, and I had to become the Celestial Demon mixed-race Kyle Ross Senna. Correspondingly, when I killed Edward When I regained my divine power, I also firmly suppressed you. But now, everything is back to the beginning."

He closed his eyes, his black dress was wet with blood, "I'm tired."

Struggles, fights, bloody plots; resistance, suppression, such as deadlocks in an endless cycle.

"End all of this." Kylos stretched out his blood-stained wings like a sinning angel.He knew his fate clearly, and even though it was the last moment, he still couldn't help smiling, "I will follow the trajectory of the law and bring down Ragnarok—with my life as a sacrifice."

The pointer turns and points to the last space before zero.

The God Realm is divided into two parts by the Floating Light Forest, the northern part is where the middle and lower gods live, and the southern part is the domain of the main god.However, the north has been silent for a long time, the wind passed through the branches and leaves of the Floating Light Forest, and the thin blood mist moistened the black and blue tree trunks.

The dying god was still struggling, the red tributaries slowly merged into the roots of the tree, and the thin needles pierced his throat.

Kairos pulled out the needle sword and said hypocritically, "Sorry."

His wings were corroded and broken by different magics, which was the near-death blow of several protoss.The needle sword has been completely soaked, and the illusion extends from the north to the Forest of Floating Light. Those who are enveloped in it cannot escape and can only be slaughtered.

The breath of life passed away, and Kaierros took the last godhead of the middle god.The illusion was shattered, turned into brilliance and sprinkled, and blood flowed into rivers wherever it went.

"Killing was not my intention." He leaned slightly, as if apologizing to countless undead, "We are just lambs chosen for sacrifice."

Kyle Ross went through the dense forest and came to the south shrouded in divine power.The first victim was the main dwarf god. He was short in stature and didn't like to talk to outsiders, so he had almost no sense of existence among the main gods.A moment later, Kairos held the blood-stained sword hilt and left the palace. Layers of black irises in the distance looked like lost love, overlapping into a gloomy dark color.

The Dark God once lived there, but he is long dead.

Because of the same reason for absorbing dark elements, the palace of the Lord of the Undead is the closest to it.Kyle Ross picked an iris. When he stepped into William's palace, the black widow was kneeling on the animal bone. The uneven outline brought pain. He lowered his head, and his black curly hair covered his face. .

William accepted his arrival calmly, "Give me some time."

He walked up to the black widow, who was shivering from the cold fire.William said, "Do you know what you're kneeling on?"

"..." Black Widow felt that her knees were so painful that she was almost unconscious, and he couldn't even say a word.

"It's the skull of a phoenix." William asked himself and answered, "Only a lich can kill such a creature with strong vitality. Among the undead, the skull of a phoenix is ​​a symbol of supreme power."

The black widow suddenly raised her head and looked directly at the man in front of her.

"It's meaningless for you to stay any longer, and bring it back to the undead world." William turned around and said to Kairos, "I've finished what I want to say, please be sure to fulfill your promise."

"The undead race will become the leading race after the war." Kylos affirmed, "Your believers will be grateful for the foresight of their Lord God."

"The law is irreversible. All life survives only by following the law. Since the authority of the gods has been questioned, the law will also promote this new idea, which means that the elimination of gods and beliefs is inevitable." William He took off the sickle, his eyes were cold, "I will die, if the undead can be strengthened, then there will be no regrets."

"Thank you for helping me." Kylos bowed slightly, flipping the needle sword lightly in his hand, "So, I'm sorry."

The black widow watched in a daze as William was pierced into the heart by the needle point, the flowing blood turned into fire and burned his body, and the death cloak was burned from the corners to his hair.In the end, there was nothing left but a godhead.

A black iris fell in front of him, and the black widow picked up the wilted bouquet.When he looked up, Kylos had disappeared.

Next is the elves.

As an intervener, the elf lord Saint Zagari knew his end very early on.The man with the sword walked into the palace. To his surprise, Leander, the god of the orcs, was there. His descendant, Somania, was pouring tea. He pouted, as if he was very unhappy.

"Who did you just kill?" Saint Zachari asked.

"William." Kylos didn't hide anything, he looked at Leander, "You know?"

"I didn't know such an important thing." Leander showed a cynical smile, "It feels like cooking a protoss, and now you will put the final lid on."

"Appropriate metaphor."

"It's not a metaphor." Leander corrected, "It's a last word."

Pata—the porcelain fell from Somania's hands, and the boy's eyes widened.

Saint Zagal accepted his own death calmly, and he raised his cup, "May we meet in hell."

Blood stained the tea.

"You..." Somania grabbed the corner of Leander's clothes, her voice was sharp, "What, what's going on?!"

The red hair fell down on his shoulders like a flame, and the Lord God of the Orcs patted his head, "Leave me, Somania. You have grown up."

"I don't!!!" He almost screamed, "My god, no, Kyle Ross, what do you want to do?!"

In this way, Somania witnessed his father being killed by the gods he once revered. He shivered like a dead tree shivering in the cold wind, until someone said to him, "This is the fate of all gods, and it is born to be Fate to bear."

He just felt dizzy, as if a lot of blood had been sucked out, and then he didn't know anything.

Kyle Ross teleports an unconscious Somania away.The current God Realm has been washed with blood, and the surroundings are lonely.He walked outside the palace, a few bushes of Casablanca were quiet and fragrant.Kylos broke off one, put it on his lips and kissed, "There is one last...Edward Kylos."

The most precious and most anticipated.

He changed his blood-stained black dress into one with gold trim and a Casablanca pinned to his neckline, as if he was going to attend a nobleman's banquet.The space was instantly shattered, and Kaierlos felt anxious. He passed through the space fragments and came to the Celestial Clan's Senna Palace, just like the last time he came.

Edward was correcting the documents. He was dealing with the affairs of the Baroness's party recently. Due to the special nature of the Baroness, its existence became very difficult.Under the pressure of defeat, Edward hadn't had a good rest for several weeks, and he rubbed the space between his brows wearily.

Then he heard footsteps again.

Kyle Rose walked in from the temple door, and he stared at Edward almost greedily, "We haven't seen each other for a long time."

Edward put down the quill and said indifferently, "Are you here to imprison me or kill me?"

Kyle Ross laughed. He pulled out Casablanca on his chest and joked, "I'm here to pursue you."

"Pursue me with a bloody sword?" Edward sarcastically said, "Then I really dare not refuse."

Kylos' tone seemed to be joking, "If you refuse, I might kill you."

Edward half closed his eyes.

"You look tired." Kairos stepped forward and put his arms around his waist, as close as a lover, "Is it because of the Celestial Clan?"

No one answered him.

"Then let me ask again, if the rise of the Celestial Clan requires your death, would you be willing?"

Edward was very vigilant at first, but he was taken aback when he heard his question.

"The ultimate goal of the Eternal Ruins is to kill all the gods. Because only when the gods die and the faith decays, new ideas and regimes will be born. They will promote the development of civilization and bring all races to a new level." Kai Eros whispered in his ear, "Look, it created you, and it will eventually destroy you."

"...I didn't do well enough?!" Edward suddenly asked back, he finally had some normal emotions, showing anger and unwillingness, "I have taken over the authority, and I will definitely fulfill my due obligations, from the past to the present , I never dereliction of duty, and the law wants to kill me now to facilitate the birth of a new order?!"

Kyle Ross is very clear that people like Edward don't care about others' evaluation of themselves. Only by questioning what they focus on can they get the corresponding emotional response.And this kind of Edward finally exposed his rare fragility, he put his arm around the other's shoulder comfortingly, "No, you are already very good."

The hard mussel finally opened a crack, and now he wants to pry open the double shell and taste the softness inside.

"I killed all the gods except you and me." Kylos whispered, "but I can't bear you, El."

Edward clenched Kylos' wrist with his backhand, his fingertips resting on the tendons.Kylos was keenly aware that he was actually uneasy, so that he desperately wanted to shackle his opponent's weakness.

It's... cute.

"You are excellent, Edward. But many things are beyond our control, whether it is fate, laws or the trajectory of history. We are all just sacrifices and lambs, and our death is the new life of another era." Kylos Never been so tender, "If your death does not belong to me, then my existence is meaningless."

Edward was silent for a moment, "So, I must die."

The needle sword had reached the back of the God of Light, and Kairos's embrace was more like a shackle. He said, "Yes, and I will be with you."

Blood gushed out from the wound, and Edward snorted. He leaned against Kylos' arms and said intermittently, "If, if it weren't for all of this... we might appreciate each other."

"No, no." With a little force, the needle sword finally pierced his chest, "I can't stand your desire for totalitarianism, just like you can't stand my desire for control. It's fair to us, we're just attracted to each other and pity each other."

The dying embrace each other for warmth, death is never too late, the gods who once controlled a continent are annihilated in the light, their hair is intertwined, and the end is ushered in after the brilliance.

In the distant Ruins of Eternity, the scarlet clock face finally points to zero, and the silent chime resounds across the continent.From this moment, a whole new century was born, later generations call it the glory days.

Dusk is over, dawn is coming.

----Chapter107. Dawn & End----

The author has something to say:

This is the last he ending I have written so far without breaking the character design. The two people can be considered to understand each other, but mutual tolerance is definitely not possible, because the contradiction of personality is fatal, and both offense and defense are very strong. , This means that no one wants to give in. Although it is said that the relationship line is mainly initiated by Kyle Ross, his initiative is always forcing Edward to retreat. Shou is already a little trembling. Of course he will not do it. Since the death attack has already hated each other, it is better to usher in the end. After all, it is a battle of love and death without love.

There is still one chapter to finish, the extra volume will have the protagonist and all the living and dead supporting characters and the parallel world of CP, the background is the magic academy in the new century, there are various races instead of only the heavenly race like the Holy Academy
