Chapter 701 What is left behind

[Eon's POV: ]

The light was so bright they must have thought of it as some kind of explosion of light. However, thankfully, it was only a momentary one.

[[ Master! Everyone was surprised! What was that?! ]]

"Just an unexpected mistake dear. Don't worry about it and continue what you were doing. Finish it before you are completely fine."

[[ Alright master.... Masterrrrrrrrrrr! ]]

And just like that, my dear familiar returned to her crying session.

And we focused on the situation at hand.

============

'The hell?'

My origin mastery levelled up?

And not only that, my [White Crack] upgraded to stage two as well?

'The hell kind of power up is this?'

[[ *Haaa... master, you lost all your skills. And there isn't any great increase in stats either. Just that the purity of all your stats increased a bit.

The increase in healing factor seems to be effects of your only left innate skill that seems to have gotten some new powers, however, I am not sure.

I will check it later but the new branched origin skill you unlocked will have to be checked by you.* ]]

'I know, I know. Still, thanks for everything. But, what do you mean by a little increase in stat's purity? How little this 'little' of yours actually is?'

I knew for certain any kind of 'little' from her side is something too visibly shocking for the one related to this 'increase'.

[[ *Well, you can check that out yourself.* ]]

'Right.'

The arrow was still in my hands and it was brimming with a powerful energy so strong I doubted there will be some kind of problems over there.

It was dawn already, so the sun rising on the horizon was painting the city with its first rays.

"You bastard! You dumb fucking bastard!"

Rein was here after dealing with everything on her end, looking completely worn down, angry, with tears lingering at the end of her eyes.

She was angry that I cut off all communication with her and did something so dangerous, however, since she knew I was fine, as well as about the awakening, she at least didn't hit me.

Or perhaps she postponed the hitting and punishment part for now, which was for the best as well.

'Haaaaa...'

The first place to fall was the bar stronghold inside of the city, and then the jewellery shop.

Then the one in the north where the lust demon had appeared, followed by the south area with Rein and emperor August.

Then the western side was done with their work, and lastly, the north eastern stronghold was taken down after a long struggle.

But ultimately, with a new morning greeting us, the war itself, had ended now...

'Lucy.'

[[ *Three thousand and twelve people died, master. And since their bodies were used as sacrifices for the demon summoning, they disappeared as well.

Additionally, two hundred and thirty one people have suffered grave injuries that will require strong healing powers to repair.

12% of the city infrastructure was damaged, however, not any irreplaceable damage was done so it can be repaired easily.

The demonic energy was spread throughout the city atmosphere so it needs an immediate cleanup or else being in contact with the demonic energy will cause a great deal of damage to the regular citizens.

There is a chance that the battle was analysed by the cult members that managed to slip away, and that they might come back or report it to their superiors, so, you should not let your guard down yet, master.

And, lastly... I know you don't want to hear this, but, it seems like there was an information leak from our side.

The ones that managed to flee were mostly from the strongholds inside of the city area. Which, of course, is unsettling.* ]]

The city was covered in flames, ice, and damage...

Death was in the air now...

Lives were lost and damage was done even though we tried our best.

The innocent lives of the common people, the children who played on the street just until yesterday... the people we had interacted with not long ago, and even the bad people who weren't as bad as the bastards who killed them. They were dead now.

They died meaningless deaths knowing neither cause of their deaths, nor having the chance to say goodbyes to the ones related to them.

'They... just died.'

And their souls, their bodies, were sacrificed in order to summon the demons who also died meaningless deaths.

"Eon..."

"Oh, headmaster... you are back."

Damage could not have been prevented completely even if the headmaster was here prior to all this.

The forces we had on our side, when combined, were multiple times stronger than him alone. And even with whatever data we had about the enemies, we still did not manage to save all of those who died.

What was done, was done already.

The storm had passed... and in its wake, it had left thousands of deaths, an immeasurable amount of damage, and an eternal void in many hearts that would not heal with time.

'It was over...'

This physical war, at the very least, is over now.

'However...'

The damage that the storm, this 'unreal' war had left behind, was not going to end with just the end of the cultists.

'The real struggle starts now.'

For us, for the citizens, for the rulers of this land, and for the one standing before me that felt the most guilt at the moment...

The real struggles were going to start now.
