Are you worthy of saving the world?

Rosalia said with amusement: "What's the matter with your equipment?"

"I stole it from your subordinates. Compared to this..."

Just as Yuli was about to speak, Rosalia asked first.

She looked over the boy's shoulder, looked around, and asked curiously: "Where's Celeste? Why can't I see her?"

"..."

Yuri grabbed Rosalia's shoulders with both hands.

"…What's wrong?" The Empress blinked.

It was not until then that she noticed that there was something a little unusual about the Child of Prophecy's expression.

I was so happy about my reunion with Yuri that I ignored this.

"Wait...wait a minute, Yuri..."

Rosalia suddenly felt a strong sense of uneasiness.

"Celestia is dead," Yuri said.

……

……

……

"Celestia's death is all my fault... I'm sorry."

Yuli calmly recounted everything that had happened so far.

His adventures with the Elf Queen, and the sudden changes they encountered at the end.

The rebellion of the Four Heavenly Kings Lich Leoric, and the fact that he had taken away the Goddess's core, made him a monster that exceeded the level cap.

In order to avoid its surveillance, Yuli met up with Rosalia, pretending to want revenge on the Demon King, and entered the Demon King's castle alone.

"........."

Rosalia listened in silence.

The Empress's face was still beautiful, but mixed with unspeakable sadness and fatigue.

She spoke softly long after Yuli had finished telling the whole story.

"It's not Yuri's fault... It's because Celeste underestimated the enemy and was too willful..."

"You should have preserved your divine reserves, but you used them up before meeting me..."

There was a hint of anger in Rosalia's voice.

"That idiot who got carried away...!"

"It was me who made Celes become like that, so it's my fault."

Yuri gritted his teeth.

Even though almost a week had passed, there were still some things he couldn't figure out -

That is the consumption of Celestia's divinity.

Although Celestia squandered the divinity willfully from beginning to end, Yuri had actually been secretly helping her record and calculate the consumption of the divinity.

According to Yuri's calculations, Celestia should have had at least 1/4 of her divinity reserves left when she entered the miasma land.

If she still had that much divinity left, Celestia would not be hurt even if she was secretly cursed by the lich and attacked from behind!

However, the Elf Queen had already used up all of her divinity at that time... That's why she was able to have her divine core gouged out by the enemy without any resistance!

Why exactly is this happening?

Did I really miscalculate?

Since he could not come up with a reasonable explanation, Yuli believed that he was responsible for Ceres' death.

"I want revenge..."

Rosalia pursed her lips and looked at the boy with her purple eyes burning with fire.

"It's unforgivable. Even if it costs me everything... even if I have to stay in the singularity for another ten or twenty years, I will kill the guy who killed Celes."

"...You really don't intend to obey Celeste's last words."

Yuri sighed.

He knew Rosalia's character very well and knew that she would do this.

Rosalia raised an eyebrow. "What about you? From the looks of you, it seems like you've already decided what to do next."

"Yeah." Yuli nodded and then said a place name.

"The Mirror Temple in the Northern Continent...

If my guess is correct, there is a tool that can revive Celestia."

"resurrection……!?"

Rosalia's eyes widened: "Is that something that can be done?"

Knew it……

Even Rosaria, the strongest alchemist on the continent, believes that resurrection is impossible.

Even in this world of singularity, there is no legend about resurrection.

But Celestia once said that she could use the magic of resurrection, which means that the magic of resurrection does exist in this singularity.

Yuli felt that there was still room for recovery.

"Brave Yuri..."

The boy recalled the conversation that night.

"If one day you regret your past rashness and recall my words... go to the Mirror Temple in the north. There you will find what you want."

The last of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Demon King's Army, Double Phantom Fifth...

After that night, Yuli never met him again.

Yuri took a deep breath and said, "That guy... should be waiting for me in the Mirror Temple."

The guy who had to be defeated by himself no matter what, knew from the beginning what would happen to him next.

That's why he showed up that night, mocked Yuri and told the prophecy.

He should be waiting for me in the Temple of Mirrors now, and making the final decision with me.

"...That guy?" Rosalia frowned and asked back.

Yuri took the Empress's hand and said, "Is there a way to avoid Leoric's eyes and take me to the northern continent?"

He must go to the Mirror Temple in secret without being noticed by the lich Leoric.

Now that guy,

"Hey hey... no problem."

Rosaria began to explain the principle of "Devil's Divine Protection" to Yuri.

Create an absolutely invincible area around yourself, not interfered by anything from the outside world.

Whether it's physical attack or magical attack.

Of course, the same goes for magic detection.

"So, as long as you stay by my side, you don't have to worry about being detected."

Rosaria said: "The Mirror Temple in the northern land, the props for resurrection...Did you hear any rumors on the way here?

Anyway, let’s give it a try…”

Yuli nodded.

The two discussed it and decided to set off immediately.

Rosaria spread her invincible field to cover the entire Demon King's Castle, creating the illusion that she and Yuri were fighting fiercely.

This way, we should be able to hide it from Leoric's eyes.

The brave Yuri and the demon lord Rosa held hands and flew towards the northern land.

……

……

……

After a two-hour flight, they arrived at the northernmost tip of the continent.

Through magic, it was easy to find the location of the Mirror Temple.

Along the way, neither of them spoke much.

Celestia's Resurrection——

Rosalia had never thought of this possibility, but after hearing what Yuli said, she began to hold a glimmer of hope.

The Temple of Mirrors can be said to be their last hope.

If there was nothing there... Rosalia couldn't imagine it.

The Temple of Mirrors is a rather dilapidated, plain, and unremarkable building.

The white marble is covered with cracks and the walls are covered with lush ivy.

Yuli and Rosalia walked into the temple gate hand in hand.

Even Rosalia felt uneasy as she could feel the trembling coming from her palms.

The interior is surprisingly spacious.

The ceiling of the temple was very high, and it was not filled with dust as one might imagine. Instead, it was quite clean and tidy.

Not only that.

The interior of the Mirror Temple, whether the walls or the floor, is made up of countless prisms.
