§ 57. Vows

Aharthern, the Great Spirit Forest.

Through Sasha’s vision, Shin and Reno could be seen facing Hero Kanon.

“I refuse,” Shin said bluntly, but Kanon persisted.

“Shin Reglia, this is a means of saving the Demon King of Tyranny. I know that Anos can handle whatever humanity may be scheming, but the Demon King does not wish for conflict. After he took up his sword to protect his allies, after he extended his hand to save his enemies, will you be the one to make him stand against humankind once again?”

When Shin remained, Kanon continued. “The human race has made a foolish decision. That is why I shall atone for them. This time, we shall have peace so that one day, when he wakes, the peaceful world he died for will await him.”

“Hero Kanon,” Shin said coldly, “no matter what the circumstances, do you believe I could accept a fake Demon King?”

“I do not.”

“Do you understand what you’re saying by asking me to play the right-hand man of a fraud such as this?”

“With the Demon King’s right-hand man at his side, no one will doubt Avos Dilhevia as the true Demon King. If you care for Anos, won’t you cooperate with me?”

Shin drew his steel sword and pointed it at Kanon’s neck. Just before the blade made contact, Kanon stopped it with his bare hand. Drops of blood rolled down his hand and dripped onto the ground.

“To think that, without your intervention, my liege will resort to destroying mankind is an insult,” Shin said. “The Demon King is not that weak. No matter the scheme he faces, he shall surpass it all without losing anything.”

“I know he can surpass everything, but there are things that even he has failed to protect.”

“My liege became stronger to prevent that from happening ever again. I’m sure he will continue to grow stronger after his reincarnation.”

“Even so, I have to show him that humans aren’t only fools! We cannot rely on him for everything because of his strength. That’s what forced him to become stronger in the first place. He had to kill and destroy to stop others, to the point he became known as a tyrant!”

Hero Kanon continued to protest, earnestly attempting to take the side of demonkind. “Can you not feel how isolating, how tragic, having that much power is? Because of our weakness, because of our lack of resolution to end the conflict, because we didn’t have the strength to cease our hatred, he had to fall into a solitary sleep!”

His eyes unwavering, Kanon kept his eyes on Shin. “Indeed, it would be an insult to have an imposter take his place. I, as well as anyone, know just how mighty and revered the Demon King is. That is why I will atone for the sin of assuming the Demon King’s identity. I shall atone with my own life—as the fictitious Demon King, Avos Dilhevia.”

Kanon tightened his grip on the sword. “I’m sorry. I cannot die right now. But in two thousand years, I promise.
