Everyone is Young Except for Me - Chapter 365

Chapter 365

Gusts of wind flooded the hills of Hesperides and cold tension filled the area. The wind blowing from the end of the hill was full of demonic energy. It was due to the demonic energy being emitted by a million demons mixing together. There was a small island in the sky of Hesperides. It was the garden with a golden apple tree where Gaia was known to be sleeping. The entire island was floating in the air and Lee Geonmyeong was staying in the castle there.

“It is a situation where all the humans in that city are marching to this place.”

Lee Geonmyeong quietly listened to Lucifer’s report and slowly opened his closed eyes. He was frowning and his face was filled with deep anxiety.

[Why did those who are dead come back to life...?]

Lee Geonmyeong really didn’t understand it. The situation now was unthinkable. It was also a great shock that the humans, who had been shrinking back, suddenly marched out of the city and rushed to this place without knowing fear. It was something that could never be done without being prepared for death.

[Choi Chuntaek! I should’ve killed him with my own hands at that time! I didn’t expect him to hinder me and block my path like this!]

Lee Geonmyeong had also learned through Arkstagram that Choi Chuntaek had caused the time regression. Maybe Choi Chuntaek had the ability to turn back time once again. Perhaps this was why so many humans were rushing without worrying about death. Later, he learned that Choi Chuntaek could no longer use time regression, but the fact that they came out meant he had a hidden trump card.

[If this is the case, it is an all-out war. Lucifer, mobilize all the demons and fight them. Buy as much time as possible. Now that I know he can’t do the time regression again, I’ll slowly start absorbing Gaia’s power again. You must kill the man called Choi Chuntaek.]

“I will prepare it.”

[Well, I don’t know what will happen. If I give you some strength, it will allow you to drag out the time longer. Give this to Ashtar. Tell him to use it with the blood he got from that guy.]

Lee Geonmyeong waved his hand in the air and gave Lucifer a sword made by his white thunderbolt. Thunder was heard from the black tip of the well-forged thunderbolt. Lucifer carefully accepted it. The thunderbolt sword contained a bit of divine power so it had tremendous power.

[Keep this in mind. This thunderbolt sword has the power of a god and should be used only in really dangerous moments. It has an energy opposite to the demonic energy you have. Ashtar will probably find out when using it. Then go first.]

Lee Geonmyeong gave the thunderbolt sword to Lucifer and gave the order to leave. Lucifer bowed and disappeared without a sound as black smoke.

The demonic army and the allied forces confronted each other on a large flat space. Both sides were committed to victory in the war and were doing actions to boost morale. The demons were blowing bizarrely shaped horns, beating on drums covered in blood, and making peculiar sounds.

The allied forces had distinct methods to raise morale. The knights raised swords and someone, who appeared to be the knight commander, rode past on his horse, knocking on the swords one by one. The priests called the name of the god they worshipped, praying for victory and survival in this war. The witches and wizards were busy meditating on their brooms to increase their focus.

The most prominent one was Gorba who led the orcs. Behind Gorba, three orc chieftains were emitting a terrifying killing intent as they stared at the demons in front of them.

“Chwik. The time has come to get revenge for my brother.”

“I will show the bravery of the frost orcs.”

“For Lord Mudur!”

“Hou! Hou!”

The orcs were properly united for the first time after a long division. They showed off their bravery in this war and showed off their chest muscles. The ritual of striking their chest that had been passed down since the beginning orc, Mudur, was very impressive. Gorba strongly struck the left side of his chest with his right hand and then held out his fist to the other orc chiefs. The other orc chieftains had question marks above their heads.

“A human friend once told me! If we bump our fists like this then we are friends!”

The other orc chieftains looked like they liked it and bumped fists. A cold black wind wrapped around them and disappeared to the side.

‘Eileen...’

There was also an unexpected figure at the front line of the allies forces. He was Supreme Fire Dragon, who disappeared after the World Competition. Supreme Fire Dragon changed his life after that day. He secretly helped Eileen behind the scenes and took care of her. His younger Fire Dragon brothers helped Eileen’s store both materially and mentally in order to assist their older brother, Supreme Fire Dragon, with his love affair.

Eventually, the two people reunited, fell in love, and finally achieved the fruit of love. Supreme Fire Dragon and Eileen got married and formed a family here in this world. Supreme Fire Dragon had been single all his life and he finally became a father. Supreme Fire Dragon and Eileen’s child was growing in her stomach. He didn’t know if it was a son or daughter, but did it matter?

“Big Brother, our younger brothers are well prepared. They’ve used a lot of their assets for this war, so we have to survive.” One Fire’s voice came from behind Supreme Fire Dragon.

Supreme Fire Dragon nodded slowly as he watched One Fire.

“Yes. If we can’t completely defeat the enemies, then this war will be meaningless. Well done.”

“It isn’t bad to do something rewarding with Big Brother. We all think so.”

“It must’ve been a tough decision for you, but thank you for following me.”

Supreme Fire Dragon nodded with a gentle smile. Now there was no more harshness on Supreme Fire Dragon’s face. He was just the father of a child and the husband of a woman.

One Fire said, “In fact, I also have someone I’ve been meeting recently.”

“What? Who is it?”

“It is Sylvia.”

“Huh?”

Supreme Fire Dragon’s eyes widened with surprise. For reference, Sylvia was one of the part time students working at the flower store run by Supreme Fire Dragon and Eileen. He just never dreamed there would be a relationship between One Fire and Sylvia. Perhaps they would get married like himself.

In any case, it was a celebration.

“Congratulations, brat. You know to send a wedding invitation once you get married, right?”

“Haha. Of course.”

“Eileen and I will make the bouquets.”

“Thank you.”

The black wind that passed by the orcs headed for Supreme Fire Dragon’s group. They faced the wind and saw dozens of demons on the horizon.

“Brother.”

Then One Fire politely handed a huge, two-handed sword to Supreme Fire Dragon. It was the sword that Supreme Fire Dragon had handed to One Fire in the past. It was the symbol of his promise to put down his past life and live with Eileen. Now it had returned to him again. Supreme Fire Dragon looked at the two-handed sword up and down for a while before slowly lifting it. The bloody sword shone in the setting sun and took on a red glow.

“It is well sharpened. Four Fires and Six Fires’ repair skills are useful.”

“Who knew they would be such outstanding blacksmiths? Haha. I really don’t know much about people.”

Four Fires and Six Fires had begun new lives as blacksmiths long ago. They were now some of the most skilled blacksmiths in the Atlan Kingdom. The members of the Fire Dragons made their own changes and lived a new life. Now they were gathering together again.

“It is nice to see that everyone is living well. However, we must first survive in order to protect our current lives.”

“Your words are correct.”

Supreme Fire Dragon glanced at his younger brothers behind him with a solemn expression. It felt like he had returned to a scene from his past. He could only survive this battle if he returned to being the boss of the Fire Dragons. Thus, Supreme Fire Dragon shouted at them, “You sons of bitches! Never die!”

It started with the Fire Dragons, but others heard it and also screamed with excitement. The black wind rose in the air again and moved elsewhere.

“Supreme Fire Dragon. He is here as well.”

Meanwhile, I was watching Supreme Fire Dragon yelling and raising morale. Then I suddenly made eye contact with him. Supreme Fire Dragon was stunned. He coughed a few times before looking ahead again. I pretended not to know because I thought it would be embarrassing.

At this time, Park Muyeol walked to me with folded arms. “That guy married Eileen. They are expecting a baby.”

“Really?” I looked at Supreme Fire Dragon again with surprise. Come to think of it, I couldn’t see what he used to look like. At that time, he gave me an impression like he was full of dissatisfaction with the world. Now he was just soft.

“Is he good to Eileen?”

“They seem to be living well. I stopped by the flower store a few months ago and met him. He said he has cleared his past and is doing good deeds. Oh, two of them have become pretty famous blacksmiths in Atlan?”

“That’s great.”

I nodded slowly with a smile on my face. I thought it would be good to get along with him once all this was over. I didn’t go to the wedding, so it would be nice if I cooked some healthy food for the pregnant woman.

“Uhaha! Everyone dance!”

Then I saw the dokkaebis dancing on the right side. At the very center was Shokkobi who was called the original dokkaebi. There were also the vampires of Dark Moon. It was Mido’s constellation, Monet da Vinci, who led them. All of them were getting ready for the upcoming battle.

“Grandfather.”

I was feeling appreciation when I heard Mido’s voice.

“All the preparations are finished.”

Mido told me with a determined expression. Many faces were seen behind her. There was the resistance led by Leslie and the rankers we saw in the World Competition, including Zhen Sulong and Michael. Those who pledged to fight in this war formed different guilds and determination could be seen in their eyes. The black wind that soared into the air fell back down and wrapped around me gently. The black cape that seemed to be torn from darkness fluttered behind me along with my white hair.

I slowly tied up my hair and took the Poison Eating Sword from my back. The hills turned black at a terrifying speed and a dark shadow spread to all users and NPCs. Then messages appeared in front of them.

[The blessing of Pluto, the god of darkness and death, has been used.]

[As long as the caster doesn’t die, all allies within range won’t die and can be brought back to life.]

All the users and NPCs are wrapped in black energy. I slowly raised my sword. Then behind me, the Army of Death slowly started to rise.

1st army corps commander, Reaper; 2nd army corps commander, Balak; 3rd army corps commander, Cerberus; and 4th army corps commander, Ajucus; appeared with a fearsome air around them. The eyes of those who saw them grew larger with surprise.

The Army of Death had appeared in the middle of the demonic army and the allied forces.

“Attack!” I shouted as I extended my sword to the demons in front of me. It was the signal that marked the beginning of the new Ragnarok.
