Never Die Extra Chapter 484

Chapter 484

On an empty stage (3)
A little time had passed since the Devil was divided into pieces by the hands of a single mortal. The gods, who were summoned to deal with the Demons, quickly retreated from the battlefield and wandered around the world for a while to find their followers, but eventually returned to the Divine Realm with only the lowest influence on earth.
[Can we go back like this? The spirit of the Devil hasn’t wholly disappeared…]
[The man’s ability to take on the Devil wasn’t enough.]
[No, this world can’t stand the Devil.]
[We don’t have a lot of energy left, anyway. We have no choice but to step aside now.]
[But even if I’m trying to save my strength…]
[We haven’t yet secured any followers.]
The gods pretended to be worried about the Devil for no reason but eventually returned to the first topic with a sigh.
[Not like this.]
[We need the means to spread our power on the ground.]
[I’ve done the best I can. I just hope that the gaining of followers will be smooth.]
[But apparently, there is one who has secured a large number of followers.]
[She didn’t even descend herself.]
[She’s probably laughing at us up there by now. The Great Mother Earth…]
Fayna, the apostle, was being somewhat overly competent, spreading the influence of the Great Mother Earth on the ground, and many gods who missed the opportunity due to Evan’s ploy were blaming the Great Mother Earth. The reason why the Great Mother Earth couldn’t descend directly this time was that other gods pressured her to yield her right to descend because the influence of the Great Mother Earth was spreading more widely than expected.
As a result, however, the Great Mother Earth didn’t humiliate herself against the Devil, nor did she unnecessarily use up her strength and set the stage for many believers to emerge. Hence, she benefited the most this time.
[This price will have to be paid sometime later.]
[Yes, the next time the Devil causes a big problem in Middle Earth again, she’ll have to take over when it comes.]
[I think she’s going to have the most followers on Middle Earth, anyway.]
They clenched their teeth, uttered such words, and ascended back to heaven. Thus, the divine beings who once filled this land were removed from Middle Earth, leaving only the World Tree behind. Middle Earth gained stability, and the energy of the gods that sprinkled like condiments on it gave mankind the possibility of developing in many directions. And among them…

Meanwhile, those left on the ground were still busy. Most importantly, there were the remaining forces of the Demon Army. The tribal coalition, led by Leo, who was determined to obtain his unique armor, began with the forest of the World Tree and scoured the continent, dealing with the demons and saving the humans. And it wasn’t until the work was sorted out to a certain extent that the tribal coalition faced the moment of total dissolution.
The elves, of course, stayed with the World Tree as they had said from the beginning, and the majority of dwarves and humans went to Sherden, and only a small portion remained in this world.
“Spread Zero’s doctrine all over the world!”
“We should try not to forget the skills of our land fairies.”
Naz, the youngest of the three witch sisters, also left with them. Sharay hugged her younger sister.
“Meet a good man…meet as many as you can.”
“I hate you. I hate you as much as Arpa. No, I hate you even more.”
Sharay had more than a good idea of Naz’s mind. Even though she felt ashamed to ask her this favor, Sharay was honest.
“When Oppa returns to this world, provide a way to help him. Please.”
“…Yes, delaying the curse…dealing with the Devil…I’ll think about it in many ways. Maybe Arpa is getting ready, too.”
“Please, Naz.”
“Leave it to me, Unnie.”
Naz’s red eyes filled with tears as she bid her sisters goodbye. Sharay couldn’t take her gaze off the back of her sister, who was leaving the woods. And Leo talked nonsense as always; perhaps he intended to comfort her.
“With that face, every man in the world will be willing to serve as a slave, so don’t worry too much.”
“What kind of face is that, Leo?”
“Hey, can’t I just say a few words, dear wife?”
Sharay murmured quietly, shedding a familiar couple’s talk into one ear.
“Naz seems to have had Oppa in her heart, and I’m sorry that I have to ask you this…”
Unlike Arpa, who realized Evan’s attitude toward her and didn’t have a heart for her in the first place, Naz was often unable to control her emotions because she was the youngest of the three. That’s why she could have whined at Evan in the end.
“But she was too much.”
“It would have been too much.”
However, Leo and Aria, who knew Naz looked too much like Belois, laughed bitterly and affirmed…
“If you think so, that child will be the deepest link to the witch’s blood. No wonder her potential is high.”
“Maybe the child who didn’t give up until the end came back to modern times to Evan.”
“Oh, how romantic.”
“I meant it to be scary.”
“This is why I can’t talk to you about anything.”
Eihamo, the land fairy’s number one blacksmith and the dwarf who made the unique armors, joined the group to Sherden as if it were natural. And his last job on the land was to provide Leo with proper armor.
“Oh, my, this is—!’”
“Well, in a way, it looks like the savior’s unique armor…”
“No, it’s different!”
Of course, it was a little insufficient compared to Evan’s unique armor, which was sublimated by the power of Annihilation. Still, the comparison was meaningless because all the armaments in the world would be inferior to Evan’s.
Of course, his unique armor was a sword.
“My soul is made up of swords…”
“That’s weird, so stop saying those childish words.”
Like Evan’s, there was no obvious form, but it was a weapon worthy of Leo, the master of swords. His unique armor was to turn everything into a sword. It also included his own body.
“Hahaha! My final form is to be a sword myself.”
“Stop that, too.”
Leo punched hard in the air and instantly transformed his entire arm into a giant sword. He went on to enjoy himself by making blades rise from his elbow or swinging each of his five fingers as small blades. Leo was seen as the master of the swords, although there was no fixed form. Any minor move could have been a fatal blow to bring death to the enemy.
“If this were the case, I could have fought well against the Devil…”
“You fought pretty well with just a sword, honey.”
“I was worse than the apostle!”
“I think it’s the same now.”
Aria sighed at the sight of her husband, who never grew up…she wondered inside if it was strange to be attached to such a husband, but she opened her mouth and continued.
“Let’s go back now.”
“Is the research over?”
“Not long ago. We’ve been helped by Sharay.”
It was half a year after the sealing that Aria became confident that she could open the gate to Sherden. Of course, it wasn’t a long time considering that Leo and the tribal coalition were active in the meanwhile to sweep away the remnants of the Demon Tribe and even make their weapons.
“Lian, are you ready?”
“Yes! If we go, will you come too?”
“…!”
Lian and Eir were holding hands tightly. It had been like this lately. For half a year, the two had grown entirely together, and Leo thought it would be nice if they end up together in the future, although they were still young right now.
“No, no, no! I don’t like your son!”
Recognizing the meaning of his gaze, Rose chanted her rejection.
“This wretch now reads people’s minds. What’s wrong with my son? Evan praised him for being such a great talent.”
“We can’t hand over the fruits of my and Bernard’s love to your child, anyway!”
“Suddenly, Bernard and Illoin’s child is completely your own…”
‘By the way,’ thought Aria.
“Mine and Leo’s son marrying Bernard and Illoin’s daughter. I’m happy just imagining it.”
“Let’s officiate it with Evan.”
“Haha, that sounds fun.”
“Oh, nooooooooooooooooo! I’ll never, ever let that happen!”
Aria smiled pleasantly at Rose, who was jumping about, and her husband, who was excited about his child’s wedding plans. Then, at that moment, her expression became serious.
“To do that, we’d have to get rid of the Devil completely.”
“Of course, it’ll probably be soon when we get back, right?”
“Of course, we wouldn’t have to worry about it thanks to Evan, but we shouldn’t leave it all to him.”
But Evan might laugh at them thinking this, he was probably planning on dealing with it cleanly and quickly enough to give them no chance. If her husband, who even prepared his weapons to take revenge, couldn’t even take a look at it, it would be funny.
“Well, then let’s go back.”
On one side of the World’s Forest, people leaving for Sherden gathered. Leo, Aria, Lian, Rose and Eir. Evan’s followers, led by Sharay. Mirole, who came out to see them off as queen of the forest, looked at the necklace in Aria’s hand with a lingering gaze.
“Really…soon, right?”
“You promised him yourself. Trust him and wait.”
“You know that?”
“Yes, actually, it won’t be right away. But I’m sure we’ll see each other again, so don’t worry about that.”
At Aria’s words, Mirole pouted her lips and grumbled softly.
“If it was going to take that long, I wish he’d let me have his child.”
“What, you guys haven’t done it yet? Ha!”
Aria kicked her husband in the butt and put him inside the Necklace World. Starting with that, everyone heading for Sherden entered the Necklace World. Sharay finally looked at Mirole with extraordinary eyes.
“See you later.”
“The life span of a High Elf is long. I’ll be the final winner.”
“I’m looking forward to seeing you again.”
Even Sharay returned to the Necklace World, and Aria, who was left alone, held the necklace in her arms preciously and began to exert her power. A translucent gate formed around her body, slowly sucking her in.
“I look forward to your education for the newly born Elves.”
At Aria’s words, Mirole quickly realized what she was going to say. She couldn’t have been unaware that Eir was a half-Elf. Aria was knew Eir’s mother, so…
“It’ll be a long time…leave it to me. As queen of the forest, I promise.”
Mirole couldn’t help but nod at Aria’s words. Aria smiled brightly as if she knew it, and then the gate swallowed her. Left behind, Mirole tried instinctively to reach out to the gate but immediately held on to herself.
Zero and his people were able to leave like this because she was left here. Until the day she met him again, she had to keep the seal of the Devil. And again, fight against the Devil with him, save his sister and defeat it this time.
“…He will be born in this land in the future.”
But there wouldn’t be a problem finding him a little ahead of time. Mirole hurriedly prepared a piece of paper and tried to draw Zero’s face on it. But somehow…she could only recall his smile right now, but she couldn’t draw it on the paper.
Not only her, but all the elves were like that. Everyone was distressed by the phenomenon and tried to figure out what magic it was, but the reality was simple.
…They just couldn’t transfer Evan’s beyond-perfection beauty on a piece of paper.
