Volume 5, Epilogue
A gentle wind is blowing. It was warmer than the wind in the north, and it didn’t feel cold.
Looking away from the moon hidden in the clouds, there is a large city shrouded in darkness.
Here, on top of a small hill, one cell (three kilometers) away from Cladius, the capital of the Grantz Empire, four thousand troops were lined up in a commanding position, led by a single figure.
“Looks like it’s over.”
The second prince Selene let out a white breath and smiled.
“What will the awakening of the King bring to the world…?”

“What’s wrong? Driks?”
“I’m concerned about the safety of Prime Minister Gils.
Driks slammed his fist into the ground in frustration and turned his eyes to the Great Imperial Capital.
Selene shrugged his shoulders, thinking that he was very loyal.
“That man will survive. He’ll show up soon… He’s as persistent as a snake, after all.”
When Selene laughed…
“Urgent news! This is urgent news!”
An out-of-breath messenger rushed in front of Selene.
“The Six Kingdoms are advancing! The Six Kingdoms have begun their march towards the west!”
“……”
Driks’ face paled with surprise and despair, and he sat up.
They moved so quickly; it was as if they had measured their attack at a time like this.
“How many of them?”

Closing his eyes quietly, Selene scowled and snorted.
“Crisis after crisis, what can this country do now that it has lost its emperor…?”
When he opened his eyes again, Selene raised his hand above his head and reached for the moon.
“Now ― which option will you choose?”
Selene brought a smile to his beautiful face.
“…Black Dragon King-sama.”
On the 1st day of January in the 1024th year of the Imperial Calendar ― the year of chaos begins.
