 When they saw that the chimera had been cut in half from head to tail, they all breathed a sigh of relief. There was no sign of regeneration, so this time the chimera was dead. Now that the paralysis was gone, they had to find a passage to the room where the emperor had escaped.

 They  walked along the wall for a while, tapping on the wall to see if  they could find anything strange. Finally,  they  found one wall that  was a different  from other .

 When they  examined it,  they  found a small hole in the wall, and when  they stuck  finger into the hole, the wall disappeared and a staircase appeared. It seemed that this was the entrance to the second floor.

 " Let's hurry up and  take down the emperor so we can end this war."

 They all nodded in agreement to Siegfried's words. They ran up the stairs and chased after the emperor as he fled from his room on the second floor.

 In the meantime, Leolde and Setsuna had defeated Glen . The two of them walked through the castle and Setsuna , lending a shoulder to the wounded Leolde. They were looking for Siegfried and the others or the emperor somewhere.

 On the way, they encountered soldiers, but since Setsuna was there,  it was piece of cake , in  any case, although they have betrayed , they are the guardian gods of the empire, and they know what will happen to them if  they turn them against emprire.

"It's so much easier with you."

"Well, if you were alone, you would have been attacked for sure."

"Yes. Definitely."

 They looked for the emperor and Siegfried and the others, chatting lightly. So they walked around for a while and found the emperor around a corner.

"Mm?"

"Huh?"

"What?"

 The emperor's eyes widen in confusion and astonishment, and he freezes.

"The emperor's eyes widen in confusion and astonishment. You can't possibly think that the emperor is alone in a place like this without any guards, it seems that he is in dire straits.

 Leolde  smiled at him as if he were an evil person. When the emperor saw this, he trembled and backed away , but   he had something he really wanted to ask, managed not to run away and turned his face to Leolde.

" What's happened with the Flame Emperor?"

 It's not that he's worried about him . The emperor simply could not believe that  he had lost. It was hard to believe that the strongest man in the empire could be defeated by a mere intruder and traitor, Setsuna.

 That's why the emperor questioned Leolde . The emperor asked Leolde whether he had defeated  him or not.

"I think the fact that we're here i is the best proof of that .

"Ugh. ......!"

 It's hard to believe, but if Leolde is right and the two of  them are in a good shape, one of is still alive with wounds and burns all over  his body, then you have to admit that Glen lost.

 The emperor was at a loss for words when he realized this. He was sweating coldly, trying to figure out how to get out of this situation.

"I'm telling you, I won't let you go."

"What?"

 Leolde , who said he would not let him escape, created a wall of earth to block the emperor's escape route. The emperor, who was blocked  by all directions, had to defeat the two  of them in front of him in order to escape. But there was no way the emperor could win.

"Your Majesty, can you please just surrender? There's nothing you can do now, is there? Glen is gone. Setsuna has betrayed you, and Zephyr is on the battlefield. You no longer have a chance. I will say it one more time. Will you please declare your surrender?"

 If the emperor in front of  them meekly admitted defeat, all would be  over .After that, the king, who is the representative of the country, will take care of the situation, and Leoldo will just go back to his estate and concentrate on treating his injuries.

 He wished that the emperor would just give up, but the reality was that it would not be that easy.

 

"Fu ...... stop messing around!!!!"

" Your Majesty, it's unsightly to resist in vain."

"Shut up!"

 Even though he knew he couldn't win, the emperor  cast his magic on Leolde.

"It is useless. Your Majesty. I may have wounds, but I will not be defeated by you."

" I know better than anyone that I can't defeat you after you defeated Glen ! , but I still have to defend the throne that I finally won!"

"Why do you cling to it so much?  You don't even have any allies, what can you do?"

"Why ......? It's obvious. It's just willpower."

"Willingness?"

"Yeah, that's right! I just wanted to be speciall, not a degradation of my brother, not a substitute for my brother!

 Leoldd could not say anything as the emperor shouted with his hands outstretched, he could only listen in silence.

"Do you understand? Ever since I was born, no one expected anything from me, and I was ridiculed as a degraded version of my brother! Just once, just once, I wanted someone to accept me! But no matter what I did, I was never recognized. I was tired of hearing superficial praise. That's why I wanted to become an emperor and achieve the great feat of unifying the continent that no one else could!

"So you're saying that you started the war out of a  complex of inferiority?

"What's wrong with that? It's all my country's fault for not recognizing me!"

 The emperor glares at Leolde with a face full of hatred.

(Oh ...... I see. So, the emperor was the opposite of me. I was expected by everyone, and because I was so talented, I thought I was special and fell. The emperor is different.  He wanted to be special because  he  was not special,  he  was just a replacement for brother. That's why he wanted to become an emperor and achieve the unprecedented unification of the continent. That way, he could become special and be recognized by everyone. ......)

 Hearing the emperor's true intentions, Leolde  felt pity for him. Although their beginnings were different, Leoldoe  and the emperor were similar.

 The only difference is that Leolde  is a reincarnation. Without that, Leolde would have been the same as the emperor.

  But that didn't mean he could let the emperor off the hook.

"Your Majesty. I understand your feelings. But I can't let you off the hook. Please surrender quietly."

".................. I surrender. Do as you wish."

 In the end, the emperor realized that there was nothing he could do and collapsed on the spot, declaring his surrender. At last, the long but short war with the empire was over.
