Dragon Maken War Chapter 186 - Two Persons (4)

Chapter 186 - Two Persons (4)
6
A silence descended between the two of them.
“.......”
Azell’s face hardened for a brief moment, but he patiently waited for Carlos to continue his story.
Carlos read trust from Azell’s demeanor. No matter what, Azell’s trust in him didn’t waver. Even if they were to become adversaries, Azell would assume he had a good reason for his actions. Azell had absolute trust in him.
‘Ah ah.......’
The fact that he could enjoy the confidence of someone was moving.
He had made the right choices. He had pursued this even at the expense of his body, and he hadn’t been wrong.
Carlos regretted the fact that he could no longer shed tears.
It had been a long time for him.
The time exceeded the lifespan of a human. He armored himself with a firm conviction as he fought for the future.
However, even if one possessed a strong conviction, humans were endlessly wavering creatures.
Even a object from nature like the boulder became weathered over time. Humans were continuously changing creatures. How hard would it have been for a human to remain unchanging?
It was the same for Carlos.
Carlos hadn’t had anyone to support him through the fight he waged on his own. He felt endless regret, doubt and despair.

Carlos regretted the fact that he could no longer put on a bright smile.

He had hope.
Even if his soul wore down from the despair, he felt....
He believed there would come a day when someone would tell him that he had been right.
action However, those words couldn’t come from just anyone.
It had to be spoken by one person, and he had used every method in his arsenal to give this person a life and a future. Carlos had waited for him. He wanted the reliable and strong person from his memories to show up one day. He had wanted to see this person laugh again.
He had persevered in the darkness of despair, and at this moment, he had received his reward.
Azell smirked.
“Stop talking nonsense. It is the same problem now as in the old times. You pretend as if something is of great import to test the reaction of others. We’ve already exhausted every test we can pose each other.”

Carlos cheerfully gave an explanation.

The Guardian Shadows were an amazing piece of magic. However, it was something that transcended magic.
It used every person on this world as a surveillance net for the Dragon Demon king worshippers. Moreover, the Guardian Shadows were made up of members that died with an eternal enmity against the Dragon Demon king worshippers.

The Great Darkness used transcendent beings like Belrun as ‘pillars’.
However, they weren’t the only ones that were present within the Great Darkness. There were other doomed souls that wished for eternal life. There was a large cluster of souls that made up the Great Darkness.

Their essence remained within the Great Darkness. That was why they were revived every time they were killed.
If the body remains intact, they were revived back to their living state. If the body was destroyed, they were brought back as an Undead.

It was similar to Great Darkness within the Plain of Darkness. Both Aincera and Almarick had access to the Great Darkness.
Carlos had gone through a different process, so he wasn’t beholden to Atein. He was able to create the Guardian Shadows.

“Is that why their numbers continue to grow even after fighting the Demon King worshippers over the years?”

“If there are 3,000, that is almost the amount that assembled last time. Are you saying you can bring more of them here?”

Carlos let out a bleak laughter. The number of Guardian Shadows was directly correlated to the number of wicked deeds carried out by the Dragon Demon king worshippers.

“It’s because you wanted to deliver the Dragon weapons and Dragon Demon magic to me. Why did you use that particular method?”
Azell had given all his Dragon weapons to Carlos before he went to sleep. Why had he chosen to use the Keepers of the Prophecy to bring the weapons into this era?

“Why didn’t you give it to others.......”

He was right. If Carlos had given Azell’s Dragon weapons to other people, the Dragon Demon king worshippers would have made sure to destroy them.

He had given one to Azell’s adopted child, who took over the County of Karzark after Azell. The other one was given to the country’s most promising hero.
Hower, they weren’t able to pass on their weapon.

“What?”

Azell was taken aback, but Carlos waved his hand to calm him.
Carlos’ explanation left much to be desired. However, Azell had seen the exception to what he was describing.
“Weren’t the Dragon weapons of the Dragon Demon generals preserved in the Great Darkness?”

“I see.......”

“Ah. That was jaw dropping.”

“It seems I owe a lot to my descendants.”
Azell let out a bitter laughter.
It didn’t matter what an amazing feat of magic the Keepers of Prophecy were. He could only express his respects towards the Keepers of Prophecy, and he would continue their will.
Carlos looked into the empty air as he spoke.

“I didn’t say those words, because I blame you.”

Carlos sneered at himself as he continued to speak.

Alpha was able to suppress Undead power using his gaze. This was possible, because he had imbued part of Belrun’s power to Alpha.
Omega was able to peek into the Great Darkness that was under the control of Aincera. This was possible, because their essence were within the Great Darkness.

Aincera was limited to keeping the system created by Atein rolling. Just doing this had caused her sense of self to erode.
“You were the one that stopped Aunsaurus and Baldazark from being revived?”

The four Dragon Demon generals had become part of the Great Darkness.
However, only Reygus and Almarick had been revived. Aunsaurus and Baldazark had met their true death. This was a feat accomplished by Carlos from within the Great Darkness.

“I chose that outcome. As always, I aim for the optimal result..”

He could bury two for certain. Carlos chose certainty in his fight. He picked Aunsaurus and Baldazark.
They were magicians. In terms of battle capabilities, they were Archmages that rivaled Atein.
“If they were revived, they would have been able to manage the Great Darkness better. Is that the reason why they were chosen?”

If Aunsaurus and Baldazark were present, Carlos might not have been able to make the Guardian Shadows.
Carlos changed the topic.

“I did.”
Carlos’ thought construct had told him this. Absolute calamities that threatened the entire humanity had appeared, and the death of Atein had released them onto this world.
“In the context of our previous conversation, this being had been sealed within the Great Darkness?”

“You became like this in the process of blocking them.”

Carlos shrugged his shoulders as he gave an explanation.

“The second calamity..... I think I know what it is even if you don’t tell me.”

“Which being was it?”

Azell’s eyes widened in surprise.

“I heard about her. She’s a female Dragon Demon?”

“It was in passing. He didn’t put much importance on the story.”
Azell grumbled.
It would have been better if Albatan had told him this story earlier.
Carlos cackled as he spoke.

“What kind of desire?”
