§ 11. The Heart Recalls, The Demon King’s Pillage

The lost memories of two people.

Inside the Sun of Destruction, Sarjieldenav, in a space filled with deep darkness, the Goddess of Destruction Abernyu clutched her knees to her chest. The girl whose single blink had the power to permanently alter the earth’s surface was currently trembling like a lost child.

“Who are you?” she asked.

“Demon King Anos,” Anos answered.

“Demon King...Anos...” the god in the form of a girl repeated. “Why...?”

The question spilled from the girl’s lips in a childlike voice. Gods were meant to be impassive, but there was something about her that seemed awfully innocent.

“Why what?” Anos asked.

“Why are you able to look into my Divine Eyes?” Abernyu asked curiously. The magic circles drawn in her pupils transformed into the shape of a dark sun. Anos stared directly into the Divine Eyes that took on an identical shape to Sarjieldenav.

The Goddess of Destruction quietly stood up. A black ground suddenly appeared in the dark void they were in.

“These Divine Eyes of the End can only reflect the end of all things. Nothing can escape destruction before the Eyes of the Goddess of Destruction. That is the law of nature...” She looked down, words trailing off weakly.

“Did you think that just because you have the divine power to end the world that you couldn’t be destroyed?” Anos asked.

Abernyu quietly raised her face and stared into the Demon King’s mauve Magic Eyes. When she gazed into the abyss, she could see a cross of darkness in its depths.

“It shouldn’t be possible,” Abernyu said. “The end of everything is destruction, which obeys my order. That is the logic and law of this world. Every living being must obey order equally. There are no exceptions. Nothing can overturn the fate of the end before the Goddess of Destruction’s Eyes.”

“Then the logic should be simple,” Anos replied.

Abernyu turned to Anos with a questioning look.

“You just have to destroy fate itself,” he said.

Abernyu closed her mouth. Her Divine Eyes stared straight into Anos’s Magic Eyes.

“Say, King...Anos?” she asked. “Or Demon King? What should I call you?”

“Whatever you want.”

“Then, Demon King,” Abernyu decided without much thought. “What did you come here to do?”

“I came to steal the Goddess of Destruction’s order from the world.”

The Goddess of Destruction’s lips lifted. Her eyes narrowed.

“Aha!”

Suddenly, she burst into laughter. Sadistic laughter, and maybe a little masochistic too.

“Aha ha ha! Aha ha ha ha ha! Really now? You think you can destroy me, the Goddess of Destruction?”

“What’s so funny?” Anos asked.

The Divine Eyes of the End glinted darkly.

“Because I’ve been waiting. I’ve been waiting for this day to come.”

Grey particles rose around them. The immense number of them created a grey light that illuminated the darkness, filling it with even more destructive power. That merciless order was enough to drain Demon King Anos’s magic power just by being nearby.

“Say, is it okay if we keep talking for a little bit?” Abernyu asked. “Or can you not wait anymore?”

There were still a few minutes before Sarjieldenav released its black rays again.
