Chapter Five: At the Blackened Throne

After the issuing of a royal edict, only four people remained in the audience room: Ein, Glint, Shannon, and Garland.

“With this...power...you don’t stand a chance!” Glint roared. “Let’s start this battle...again...monster!”

An enormous amount of power surged through the young Roundheart’s enhanced physique. Glint indulged in newfound feelings of omnipotence as he raised his blade to the heavens. Then, with a single flap of his wings, he’d appeared directly behind Ein. Luckily for the prince, he didn’t need to turn around and gracefully blocked Glint’s attack with his sword. Ein hadn’t budged an inch.

“I told you. I’m going all out,” Ein said.

“You!” Glint spat.

“Let’s end this, Glint.”

The audience room’s flooring started cracking and its walls gave way as they crumbled. A loud shriek rang out, as if the air itself were crying for help. Ein swung his blade and knocked Glint away. Able to take advantage of even the smallest opening, the prince used this opportunity to hold his black blade up high. As he did so, the surrounding magical energy caused the air around him to waver—bowing to a weapon darker than the night itself.

“Glint.”

Then instantly, the intense pressure let off. It was as if Ein had absorbed every ounce of it. For a fleeting moment, the audience room became tranquil and serene.

Clearly perplexed by the situation, Glint stood there at a loss for words.

“Try and receive this blow if you dare,” the Demon Lord declared. “If you feel so bold, just try to avoid this attack. But if you resign yourself to your fate, then pray to your god!”

Glint saw the black death looming in front of him.

“Wha... Gh... Gah...?!” he cried.

He thought he defended himself perfectly, but the pressure and weight of the black blade didn’t let up. His vision was sliced in two as though the weapon cut through space itself.

“No... It can’t be happening...” Shannon gasped.

These abnormalities were crystal clear from the sidelines. The blinding power that once surrounded Glint had been shaved away—plucking his glittering wings and revealing the flesh that resided behind his ceramic skin. With every burst of light that erupted from his body, Glint felt his newfound strength leave little by little.

“I don’t believe it,” Shannon murmured. “Even with the Dullahan’s power, how could he tear through the might of a Heavenly Knight?”

Ein wasn’t done just yet. The aftereffects of his attack still lingered.

“Nghhh... Aghhh!” Glint cried. With his last bit of willpower and what remained of his wings, the knight gave a grand flap and unleashed a ray of light.

“Ugh!” Ein grunted. Even he flinched and stepped back.

Glint would pay dearly for that counterattack. “Agh... Ahhh! You!”

With his former glory almost completely gone, the Heavenly Knight had been reduced to a loathsome sight. The body he was so proud of had crumbled away, and his sorry excuse for wings no longer held that blinding glow.

“Ugh... Blegh...” Glint groaned as he coughed up blood.

Bits of his ceramic skin fell away, revealing an old, shriveled form underneath—far older than Glint ever was.
