Chapter 442 – Legacy (2)

“Did you calm down?”

When the continuous shuddering stopped, Sarah lifted her hands from the ground and got up.

She wandered around the tower to find where her brother was because a great power suddenly appeared.

The aftermath of the power, which she could never handle, hit the entire tower, and an unknown light suddenly burst from the sky, but a black veil blocked it.

Even after that, the light exploded several times, and collisions continued to occur as if heaven and earth were falling.

She wanted to help, but it felt like this fight wasn’t hers to intervene in.

“It seems like it is over.”

She couldn’t feel the clashing anymore.
It was like the world had become quiet.

Sarah stumbled and sat down with her back against the wall.

“What is happening?”

Her brother seemed to have gone into a fight, but seeing that the tower looked fine, her brother had to be the winner.
She felt fortunate but was also worried about what would happen if her brother was seriously injured.

Sarah got up from her seat.

Rather than sitting around like this, she thought it would be better to go see her brother first.

Jamie looked at Yeomjae while sitting against a tree.

“What is that way?”

“Are you interested in it?”

“Who wouldn’t be interested? Maybe you aren’t sane yet.”

“Hehehe.
You don’t know how to take a joke?”

“Enough.
So what is that way? Seeing you say that, it seems like it is something that is making you concerned.”

Yeomjae laughed at Jamie’s rough attitude.

Upon hearing the method, Jamie immediately got angry.

“Hey! You know I said no to that!”

“There is no other way than that.
You know that too.”

“It is better not to be strong than to be strong that way.”

“Stubborn.
Even if you risk your life, it is impossible for you to defeat Ra at your current level.”

“… Even so, I don’t like it.
I don’t want to be like them.”

“So selfish.”

“What?”

At the word ‘selfish,’ Jamie glared at him with an angry face, and Yeomjae spat out all the words he wanted to say with an expressionless face.

“Are you going to drive the world into destruction just because of that belief? That petty spirit will drive your colleagues, your family, and everyone else to death.
Are you going to regret it only after everyone dies?”

“This brat is talking about something that is bad!”

“You have nothing to say, so you are just shouting.
So, refute my words.
Are you going to wail like a child? Speak normally.
You can never defeat Ra in that state.”

“I know that too.”

“How is someone who knows all of that continuing to talk about such foolish things?!”

“Are you even sane? Do you really want me to absorb you? Are you a fart or what? Join the new strength of the Black Tower and fight with us!”

Jamie couldn’t stand it, so he grabbed Yeomjae’s collar and shouted with an enraged face.

Yeomjae looked at his face and said,

“That wouldn’t be enough.”

He gently wrapped his hand around Jamie’s collar.

“I had three blood relatives.
They were all Nature Gods who were said to be compatriots and brothers, but those three were the only ones who shared the same blood with me.”

At the sudden backstory of Yeomjae, Jamie let go of the collar and looked at him.

“We had good times and bad times.
That is what being brothers means.
They are those who are the most annoying to have by your side, but they are also the most dependable.
The third son, Ra, was the youngest.”

“Then two elder ones.”

“Right, Bokhee was the eldest, and Yuhwa was our only sister.”

“They are both dead.”

“Right.
In the hands of Ra.
I tried to stop the youngest until the very end, but the two of them weren’t strong enough to fight him.”

Yeomjae recalled the past.

It was the time when the war against the 12 Gods was coming to an end.

Yeomjae, together with Bokhee and Yuhwa, were called the Three Emperors, and they were regarded as the most dangerous of the 12 Gods.

When they joined forces, Ra couldn’t look down on them, and even the other 12 Gods had to retreat.

But that was just about it.

The war was moving in favor of the 12 Gods, and unless there was a huge opportunity, they were on the verge of losing control over Bless.

At that time, Bokhee summoned all the possible God-level individuals and said,

“Give us, the Three Emperors, a chance.
We will definitely kill Ra and come back.”

Ra was in a state where he couldn’t be controlled, and the power of the other ones couldn’t defeat him.

He heard the news that Shiva, the God of War, had been killed and that Osiris had been sealed with a powerful curse.

Odin was horrifyingly wounded and was dying slowly, and he heard that the owners of the other powers were critically ill.

It was impossible to think about the future with that.

However, as much as the Three Emperors were related to Ra by blood, they were able to fully oppose the power he used.

However, public opinion wasn’t positive for them.

And Vishnu, a substitute with the same power as Shiva, said,

“There is no future in the world if you also get hurt.”

“She is right.
I’d rather kill him.
Among everyone here, I am sure that I am not the only strong one.”

The one who came out in place of Odin was Asgard’s next in line, Thor.

Actually, he was the only substitute that could rival Ra in terms of power.

But there was this thing called compatibility.

“I know you are strong.
However, fighting against Ra will not be good because of your power.
The power Ra handles is the Sun, and yours is Thunder.
Do judge the situation calmly.”

“I agree with them.
At this point, I believe that only the Three Emperors can defeat Ra.”

“We agree.”

There weren’t just a few people who agreed with them.
There were many.

When more than half supported them, Vishnu and Thor had no choice but to step back.

“If everyone says that, then there is nothing we can do about it.”

“Do whatever you want.”

And the war would end.

In the final battle to bring an end to the war, it was decided that the Three Emperors would directly intercept their youngest.

And the final day came.

Yeomjae was fully prepared for the final battle.
And then Bokhee came to visit him.

“What is it? We should leave either way.”

“You, stay out of this fight.”

At the words of the eldest, all three of them were shocked.

“What nonsense is that?”

Ra couldn’t be defeated unless the three of them joined forces.
Their youngest was that strong.

But suddenly, he had to step back?

As Yeomjae couldn’t understand what Bokhee just said, he added,

“You stay here and look for the future.”

“Brother! Why are you saying such nonsense?! If I step back, how can we beat him? It will not work out.
You will have a horrible death.
Not just Brother but Sister too.
Everyone will have a miserable death.”

“Even if you join, we won’t win.”

“Ha? Did something happen? Does that mean that we will all be defeated? Then why don’t you just get rid of that fortune-telling thing?”

When Bokhee was saying all of that, Yeomjae was annoyed, but Bokhee stuck to what he was saying.

“Step back.”

“I am not! Move! I need to leave.”

It was when Yeomjae pushed Bokhee and tried to move…

“That is what Mother said.”

“…Mother? Why did you tell Mother? I don’t even know why she never shows her face.
She doesn’t appear even when Bless is in such a forsaken state and is now saying such nonsense!!”

“Shin Nong.”

When Yeomjae was getting enraged enough for his face to turn red, Bokhee called out to him in a soft voice.

Yeomjae couldn’t be angry after that.
Bokhee always had a soft character.

He was a wonderful brother who wouldn’t laugh at his younger siblings when they were having a tough time.
Instead, he would give them advice in a soft voice.

That was why Yeomjae couldn’t continue getting angry.

Bokhee said,

“Even if we lose this war, everything isn’t over yet.
You will probably have an uphill battle from now on.
It might end up with you being called a traitor.
No, even sticking with Ra would be a better way.”

“Why do you keep saying such horrible things?”

“Even so, stay strong.
As your Brother, I am sorry that you had to go through such things.
I would love to do it if I could, but it is impossible for me.”

“Brother…”

“I don’t know what Mother is thinking.
But one thing I can be sure of is that our mother will not give up on Bless.”

Bokhee put his hand on Yeomjae’s shoulder.

He couldn’t hold back the tears because of the guilt of entrusting everything to his younger sibling.

“Please do forgive this Brother.”

He said so.

“Brother!”

Yeomjae immediately tried to block him, but it was impossible for him to stop Bokhee’s technique.

He lost consciousness, and Bokhee put Yeomjae on the bed as he left.

By the time he came to his senses, the war was over.

“ACKKKK.”

They lost the war, and the power went into the hands of the 12 Gods.
And the news came that his brother and sister had died.

Yeomjae became a traitor.

It was also said that he became a malicious guy who betrayed his brother.

The Nature Gods who survived the war tried to kill Yeomjae, and Yeomjae just wanted death.

If his brother hadn’t said such a thing, he would have died peacefully, but he couldn’t.

‘I will survive, Brother.’

He would survive and punish that vicious one.

Yeomjae promised himself.

No matter how long it took, he would get his revenge.

The stigma of being a traitor was neither scary nor bad for him.

He just hoped that his brother’s death, who entrusted his future to him, wouldn’t be in vain.

So he went under Ra.

“You did well.”

Ra greeted him.

The guy who killed his own brothers was laughing with his two hands spread out.
And Yeomjae did a lot of terrible things under him.

He took care of the many surviving Nature Gods.

He was scolded, pointed at, and cursed, but he had to do it.

“And then you came.”

Yeomjae pointed his finger at Jamie.

“Diablo Volfir.
A being who resisted the 12 Gods.”

At first, he didn’t think he was any different from the other resisting forces.

However, after suffering numerous defeats, he became an existence the Gods couldn’t look down on.

“Then I realized that you are the chance that Brother spoke about.”

Jamie scratched his cheek, flustered.

“I failed.”

“Right.
You failed.
However, your fate wasn’t like that.”

Yeomjae, who had had a terrible time, saw hope.

Even after that, a long time passed, but he survived with just one hope that someone would destroy this world.

There were times he was going crazy after seeing the world reset so many times, but he constantly spoke with Gaia.

“And that is how we get to this point.
You are right in front of me like this.”

“….”

“My purpose didn’t change.
I just want one thing.”

Jamie didn’t ask what it was.
There was no need to.

“Ra’s death.
You are the only one who can get it done.
And this is your last chance.”

Yeomjae knelt down and begged with his forehead on the ground.

“I will die soon.
So this is my last request.”

“Shin Nong….”

“Avenge my brother, my sister, and my allies who died.
Take this life of mine, which is on the verge of death, and add it to yours.
Accept me as a part of your body and help me.”

Jamie had no choice, so he carefully raised Yeomjae.

This old guy cried so much that he looked ugly.

“Look after me.”

Jamie said to Yeomjae.

“Please be a part of my power.”
