The magic cards I made are absolutely flawless!

At the center of the Demon King's Tomb, which gradually rose like a roaring black flame.

"Dekan, stop right now! It's not too late to change the card-making method!"

The master craftsman's anxious thoughts kept echoing in Dekan's heart.

"If you trust me, I'll trust you completely."

However, this was all Dekan responded to.

His unusually tough attitude surprised his master slightly.

"I've already died once, you shouldn't do this..."

The master's emotions seemed to have weakened considerably, and she could not hide the grief in her heart.

She knew she might not be able to win against Dekan, that stubborn guy.

But she couldn't accept receiving her brother's sacrifice again.

As if recalling her most painful memories, her usually strong voice gradually became choked with sobs.

"I will never abandon you again, that's what I said."

Dekan's voice was very calm.

He seemed to recall the promise that the gray-haired, golden-eyed demon had made to Talomatti in the inn on the northern border of the Holy Kingdom.

"But I broke the contract at the last minute."

Even without personally witnessing Delois's farewell to Talomatti in the rain at the palace, Dekan could deeply feel Delois's irreparable guilt at the time of his death and the pain Talomatti endured as he went on to walk alone.

"So this time, no matter what, I will stay with you until the end."

Whether in life or in death.

Dekan's conviction was as firm as the oath he had made in the temple.

"I will lose... Without you, even with your power, I can't win..."

Talomatti seemed unable to escape the nightmare of the Demon Realm's destruction, and responded in a trembling voice.

Despite having inherited Delois's power, she still lost.

At the very last moment, she finally understood that the moment she lost Deloitte in both the Holy Kingdom and the Demon Realm, they had already lost.

And she could never replace Doloice.

In the last cycle of reincarnation, Delois bet on her and was destroyed in return. She was determined not to let that fate repeat itself!

However, it was as if Dekan understood her thoughts and ideas perfectly.

He simply smiled.

"I've said it before, you'll always be my proudest little sister."

"It was only after understanding Doloice's life that I became even more certain that without you, I would be unable to move an inch, and this is even more true in this life."

"Besides, it's too early to draw conclusions about whether Delois won or lost the gamble. You, who have crossed a cycle to come to my side, will undoubtedly become our trump card in defeating the Chaos God this time!"

"You are my final and only trump card, and I am willing to bet everything on you."

"I'm willing to risk everything for this moment. But if you don't dare to take it, I have a feeling it will all be for nothing."

"As a wager, I am prepared to accept the danger of destroying you, and also destroying myself."

With this in mind.

Dekan seemed to have transformed back into the demon king on his throne, questioning his subjects before him.

"And in contrast—"

"Talomati, do you have the guts to completely annihilate me?"

Just this once.

He was not giving instructions to his sister as the Demon King or entrusting her with the throne.

Instead, he invited her to come to his side and become a demon king equal to him!

"..."

After listening to Dekan's thoughts, Talomatti remained silent for a long time.

Her mind and reason were making a final decision.

She wasn't afraid of dying herself, but she was afraid that Dekan would die because of her.

But the same is true for Dekan.

They had long since come to value each other's lives more than their own.

She could best understand the resolve that Dekan needed to make to bring her back to life, even at the risk of destroying her.

This is not a task that Dekan could accomplish by himself alone.

They must be of one mind and go all in.

Then she must make a decision equal to Dekan's!

at last.

"Then come on, my brother, let us restore the most basic madness of the demon race."

Talomatti seemed to smile with relief, or perhaps this was the truest essence she had suppressed for thousands of years!

She wasn't rational; otherwise, she wouldn't have forgiven Deloitte at the northern border of the Holy Kingdom in the first place.

She had long wanted to usurp her brother's position!

Because from the very beginning, she envied Dolois and wanted to become a demon like Dolois!

……

How much time passed like this, under the tense gaze of everyone.

The demonic power within the Demon King's Tomb was spreading dangerously outwards from its center, appearing extremely unstable.

They could no longer make out Dekan's figure in the black smoke.

He must be currently working on connecting those countless magical imprints simultaneously, creating a magical energy loop so that the magic cards can be recharged and used again after their magic power is depleted!

The card must function correctly at activation, without conflicting with other structures. Failure to do so will result in the card's immediate destruction, or even its explosion!

The card-making process seemed to have reached its final stage.

In an instant.

The raging demon king's magic power, like an invisible flower bud blooming, sent everyone around him flying backward!

Even Chloex, who was at the very front, could no longer provide treatment to Dekan.

Everyone could only watch from afar as Dekan's figure gradually became invisible.

Now it has come to this.

They could no longer tell whether Dekan was making cards, committing suicide, or performing a ritual!

He seemed to be using the Demon King's Tomb as an altar, the demonic power of past Demon Kings as flames, the karmic connection between two lifetimes as an anchor, and himself as a sacrifice, sparing no expense to summon a demon god who had severed ties with the past and present!

392 Decan and Talomatti

The steps leading from the throne to the Demon King's Tomb, which were originally frozen by the Demon King's magic, are now covered with black flames.

I don't know how much time has passed.

Under the tense gaze of everyone.

Finally, the flames went out.

As the layers of the Demon King's magic faded away like flower petals...

It was no longer just Dekan who appeared in the central area.

Instead, there were two figures.

They were staring intently at each other.

Like two people reflected in a mirror, they are twins made in heaven.

The boy's aquamarine-like pupils and the girl's golden, fiery pupils faced each other from afar.

They immediately smiled in unison.

Just looking at the other person seemed to instantly illuminate the darkness before my eyes.

At this moment, it is just like ten thousand years ago when they first met each other, who were still somewhat unfamiliar at first glance.

But now their colors have been switched.

I finally understood what I truly looked like in the eyes of the other person.

"Talomati, it seems we've succeeded."

Looking at his long-lost family, Dekan finally spoke.

He could know the grade of his final masterpiece even without using appraisal magic.

One doesn't even need to look to know her abilities:

【Destiny's Vow - Talomatti】

[Category: Summoning Card]

[Grade: Red Legendary]

[Class: 9]

[Effect: In the unsummoned state, the user can control the bound user's body; in the summoned state, the user can consume a large amount of the summoner's mana to forcibly seal the target.]

[Note: I dedicate everything that has shaped my life to you.]

Because he had imprinted the highest achievements of his past and present lives, the craftsmanship of the Demon King's Tomb, onto Talomatti.

"Yes, it's a miracle."

Talomatti stared into Dekan's eyes, as if trying to find answers in the depths of his gaze.
