Chapter 509: IF Story - A World Where Only the Hero and the Demon King Remain (1)
0% -— I... I want to see you again... Frey...
“...Seems we don’t need to see further than this.”
The Magic Tower Master, watching Serena kneeling on the ground through a hazy screen, spoke in a cold voice.
“Still, the gods certainly have a twisted sense of humor. No external forces interfered back then, yet they had already predetermined such a fate.”
“...It was nothing more than a discarded possibility.”
“But one that remained in some form in this world.”
The World’s Laws, taking the shape of Glare, stated as much, but the Magic Tower Master paid no heed, continuing her speech.
“And, in the end, it manifested and granted me victory.”
With a glimmer in her eyes, she took a step forward.
“In that world, though the Demon King was slain, the Hero, Frey, also met a tragic death.”
Behind her, the massive screen displayed Frey’s grave, left buried on the battlefield without even a proper headstone.
