Chapter 586
“...”Se-Hoon made a look of pure disbelief upon hearing Tuner’s proposal. A fair and square one-on-one fight? From Tuner? A proposal like that from him, of all people, skipped straight past confusion into outright suspicion.
“Are you serious?”
“Of course. I wouldn’t say something this insane if I weren’t!”
Tuner’s tone was playful, yet beneath it, there was an unmistakable sincerity—a fact that made Se-Hoon pause briefly.
“...And why, exactly, should I accept that proposal?”
At present, the only stronghold of the Demon Force left was the Abyss of Demons. Of the Ten Evils, only Tuner and the Elder Lord remained. And among the Watchers, nearly all had been exterminated except for Exuviation, which was led by Tuner himself.
It was clear by any objective measure that humanity’s victory was all but assured. Was there even a reason to accept Tuner’s offer considering that?
“For a clean victory.”
“A clean victory?”
“I knew this war’s outcome was already decided the moment the death of the Visionary—no, the Eternal Nocturne—led to the powers called Blessings appearing.”
The sight of the Perfect Ones’ mighty powers being distributed to humanity under the name of Blessings was the moment their fate was sealed. Unlike the demons, who sought only the destruction of the world, Tuner knew humanity had gained the ability to use the world according to their own wills at that moment.
