“The Demon Lord Varvatos would have eventually come.”

CHAPTER 99

The Ex–Demon Lord and His Journey in the Underworld (Part 1)

A scene from his past had sprung to life before Alvarto Egzex’s eyes. In front of him was a room within the Gladsheim palace dedicated to tea parties. The cozy little chamber lacked opulent decoration and elegant furniture. All that sat in the center of the room was a small table with space enough for a handful of people. Four people, including Alvarto, were seated there.

“Exactly as planned. All is proceeding as I’ve foreseen.” Alvarto crossed his legs as he leaned his weight back against his chair.

“Heh-heh. Well done, lad,” said the man across from him. It was Lucius, the great general known as one of the Twin Jewels, who rested leisurely and chuckled.

“No, no. It’s all thanks to your hard work. Despite our overwhelming advantage, defeating the Lizer Bellphoenix is still quite the feat. I’m impressed, Lucius.”

“Yeah. It’s a good day to die.”

“Indeed, indeed. Truly a great day.”

Something was off. Alvarto understood this, yet he continued to indulge in the conversation.

“Garp. I’ll have you participate in the next step. I’m looking forward to seeing your great might brought to bear against them.”

“Y-y-yes,” replied the giant of a man who looked like he might crush the chair beneath him. Lucius’s counterpart in the Twin Jewels glanced down with his tiny eyes and nodded.

“Ahh, the tea is delicious. Yes, when enjoyed in your company, it has a different—”

“Alvarto.” It was the woman who suddenly spoke his name. The woman who was his mother. The one who had once given his life meaning. The one he loved more than anyone. Luminas wol Croft quirked her lips in a gentle grin and gazed affectionately at him. “Alvarto.”

“Yes, yes. Of course, my mistress. I have no intention of boring you. However—”

“Alvarto, Alvarto.” She repeated his name, and she wasn’t the only one. All the others gathered in the room reiterated the same words over and over.

“Yeah. It’s a good day to die. Yeah. It’s a good day to die. Yeah. It’s a good day to die.”

“Y-yes. Y-yes. Y-yes. Y-yes. Y-yes. Y-yes. Y-yes. Y-yes.”

The light had disappeared from their eyes, and there was no trace of consciousness on their faces. Luminas was no exception.

“Alvarto. Alvarto. Alvarto. Alvarto. Alvarto. Alvarto.”

Her face was frozen in a smile as she endlessly repeated his name.

They were broken. Completely, irreparably shattered.

“Yeah. It’s a good day to, well done, lad. Riiiiiiiiii, yeah, to die, tsssssaaaaaah, lad, die, ah, well.”

“Ye…sss. Y-y-y-yes. Es. Es-es. Ye-ye. Yes.”

“Alvarto. Alvarto. Alvarto. Alvarto. Alvarto. Alvarto. Alvarto. Alvarto. Alvarto. Alvarto. Alvarto. Alvarto.”

Voices melded together in a chaotic chorus. Everyone’s expressions were fixed. None of them moved in the slightest.

Continuously, endlessly. They continued to show their shattered selves. The sole witness, Alvarto…

“Heh…heh…ha-ha—ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!”

…gazed up at the ceiling and laughed. Even as he did, the others continued in their loop.

“Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha! Ha-ha-ha! Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!” Alvarto cackled as though he had lost his mind. Madness shone in his eyes, but he couldn’t maintain the act forever. “Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha—haah.
