Battle Harem of the Heavenly Sword

Chapter 95 [Vol 1 Epilogue]: So Long As They Need Me 4

"Find allies, amass power, save more people than Rhyne's group can kill. Learn the truth and assemble the Saviors. It is unfortunate that the universe prevents me from telling you more. But even with all that, you will only have a small chance. Good luck other me. The next time we meet it will be as enemies. Do not show mercy when we do. Goodbye."

Black Hiro could only stare at the sky with a muddled mind, he could still vaguely hear what was going in.

'What do you mean we will meet as enemies? What the hell is going on?"

- WORLD ANNOUNCEMENT: The [Herald of the Forsaken] has appeared on the continent. The Gates of the Overternia have been opened. Until the Herald is terminated or the Herald is reclaimed by the [Forsaken] the gates would remain open. The [Forsaken] Arrives in 10 seconds. Please prepare for battle. -

'I… I am so tired… I didn't want any of this. Is this all there is to life? Just suffering endlessly till you stop existing?'

The man could no longer hold on and silently wept. Hiro could only continue to fight because his wives gave his pitiful life meaning. Now that they were gone, he felt empty. Who in their right mind would choose to do things they hated for long periods without a reason?

"COME AT ME YOU FUCKING PIECES OF HORSE SHIT! I MASSACRED BILLIONS OF YOU! I NOW BEAR THE MARK OF YOUR HERALD TWICE! HAHAHAHAHA! THIS WORLD CAN GO TO HELL! YOU CAN TRY TAKING ME BUT IT WILL COST YOU MILLIONS!"

- WORLD ANNOUNCEMENT: The [Forsaken] has arrived on Valorious. May the Gospel Protect you all. -

The bone-chilling sound of millions of small children laughing could be heard over the entire continent. Hiro then heard the chaotic explosions of skills and spells and the sounds of flesh being torn asunder.

However, with the giggling of small voices, the sky turned purple with a red moon coming out of nowhere and eclipsing the sun. The sun which already rose high in the sky showed that another day just passed. Regardless of how it felt, the continuous string of battles occurred hours long despite feeling it only happening in minutes.

Hiro then heard messages spoken by a man that resounded throughout Valorious, they were like the world announcements but the messages seemed garbled. Like they were spoken in an unfamiliar language. A few meters away from him, beings with white eyes came out of the ground by the thousands.

- I am the Heavenly Sword, Lonely is my path for I lost the lights that guided my way. -

Millions of people around Valorious saw the [Forsaken] come out of the ground. The shadows all over the continent ravaged the lands unhindered, killing everything in their path all except the country Hiro was in.

- Forged in flames, my form is the guardian that protects the world from its enemies. -

In this country, thousands of what could only be described as rusted nails erupted from the ground. The [Forsaken] that just arrived got skewered without exception. They then dissolved into the white fluid and drenched the earth. Yet even with these rusted weapons some large shadows defended or evaded them.

- Stoked by the winds, my suffering only grew heavier yet the weight made my substance grow ever stronger.

More and more shadows came out and started attacking the living en masse. Many died from a single bite, the unlucky ones got ripped apart like gazelles to lions. With each civilian that fell, their flesh turned black and their eyes emitted a hollowed light. Reforming their wounds, the corpses stood up one more and joined the rest in destroying the cities.

- Reinvigorated I thus embodied a tool that punishes the wicked and safeguards the just. -

Suddenly thousands of black longswords fell from the sky, each stabbed itself into the shadows and disappeared afterward like smoke. At the same time, a similar number of white longswords appeared around the people being attacked.

- Though tempered by the waters, my essence remained unchanged. -

These white weapons blocked then decapitated the black zombie-like beings only to similarly vanished after completing their task. The masses that survived immediately ran away thanking the heavens for the intervention of hallowed steel.

- For I exist as a weapon given birth only to destroy. -

Flying sword slashes rode the winds like swallows and passed by the cities. The sword-based projectiles ripped apart anything they came across. Buildings, monsters, and even civilians. nothing escaped their wrath. With their passing the cries and screams from earlier all turned to silence. After a span of a few heartbeats, however, shadows infested the lands anew.

- Yet what lies at the end of my journey? What more does the heavens ask of me? -

Hiro who heard the verses didn't understand them but felt sadness and regret enveloping his heart.

'What is this, it is like someone resonating with a song. I don't remember crying over every single thing.'

- I did all I could do and more. Yet Lacking were all my sacrifices ever still. -

The shadows in the entire continent of Valorious suddenly all turned in the same direction. They stopped attacking and franticly ran toward the heading they suddenly faced.

- And so as the world left me in sorrow, then so too shall I turn my back on the world. -

Rilu suddenly reached Hiro and shoved vials of golden liquid into his mouth. "Hiro-sama we need to leave now!" Hiro couldn't help but comment. "Overdrive Canceller? Where did you get this?" Yet the woman couldn't be bothered and started lifting Hiro off the ground. "I will explain later. We need to hurry!"

- I am the heavenly sword. Lonely is my path for I too have been [Forsaken]. -

- WORLD ANNOUNCEMENT: The [Herald of the Forsaken] has been reclaimed. The Gates of the Overternia has been closed. Please prepare for the next Arrival. All Nine Heralds have been assembled. The Invasion of Valorious will begin in 87,600 hours. May the Gospel Protect you all. -

"NO! NO! NO! HIRO-SAMA LEAVE ME AND G..." Like a puppet with strings cut Rilu suddenly jerked and stopped moving. Hiro got dropped to the ground like a sack of potatoes in consequence. Rilu then came closer to Hiro and pulled up his chin in an affectionate manner.

The transmigrator then looked at the woman only to get a surprise that sent chills down his spine. Rilu smiled in a vulgar manner reminiscent of someone Hiro loathe with all his heart. The melodious voice then came out of her lips as it seductively smiled.

"Long time no see Sweetheart, did you miss me?"

Hiro then ground his teeth as anger set his heart aflame. "Rhyne…"
