I was jolted awake in my room, no signs of battle were anywhere. Those irremovable bloodstains were gone, maybe the past events were just a bad dream, the pain was all too real, I could physically feel the deep cuts that the claws of the Sovereign of Beastly Fangs made on my body.
If this was a dream, at least let my stay here, let me ignore the blood and gore of my surroundings. Maybe this could be a good afterlife, maybe I was rewarded for my struggles. It turned out time had been turned back, I am still Level 118, so that didn't change at all. The walls outside had no signs of battle, how interesting.
Kyoko walked out of her room, it was probably a pretty weird sight, she woke up and her first sight was her younger sister staring at a wall intently.
"Hello? Paging Earth to Mizuki, you have been looking at the wall for five minutes." I heard Kyoko say, I was immediately snapped out of my thoughts.
"Nothing, I'm just tired." I answered, this felt wrong, this world was artificial, I know that, yet why am I still here? The Kyoko I know would have slapped me in the face already, should I stay? Should I leave?
How do I even leave?
Even the news were wrong, I remember this day, this was the day after the first time I went into the Carthenon Temple. The headlines I knew were all about me getting gravely injured from a double dungeon, but these were normal headlines.
This feels so wrong.
Is this the life I was supposed to live?
I'm not even supposed to exist.
Regia confirmed it, I am nothing but a useless existence, Jin Woo is supposed to be the star of the show, he is the strongest Sovereign. Why is the weakest Sovereign by his side? Baran died a long time ago, I'm not even supposed to be here.
I'd rather drown in a fabricated reality than return to a real one filled with suffering, let Jin Woo win, let him be the savior of humanity. But why did I feel if I committed to this decision, the reality that was supposed to happen wouldn't? Why did I feel like Jin Woo would lose?
I'm a National Level Hunter, but inside, I'm still the weakest S Rank in the world, I didn't improve on myself at all. I'm weak as hell, I'm not strong, it was all a lie I told myself to make me feel better.
Tch...you gods really have to keep toying with my emotions, why can't you just let me live a happy and normal life. If this was a fake existence, I'll just tear it apart. I'll destroy all the obstacles between me and my happy ending.
"Come out, whoever is out there." I demanded of the world, this Kyoko looked confused, but I knew that she was a fake, if you want to put me in a fake world, at least make it good enough to make me think it's real.
A ring of white flames appeared at my feet, burning down the whole house, the fake Kyoko and Mom. Everything, the neighbourhood, probably the entirety of this fake Japan. After the destruction ended, a lone demon appeared before me.
[Sovereign of White Flames, Baran]
"It seems that you came to terms with your feelings." Baran's rough voice rumbled.
"I'm going to make my own happy ending, this one sucks, at least make it one I can drown in, this is obviously fake." I replied, Baran nodded after hearing this.
"I've mellowed out a lot after getting killed by Ashborn, that friend of yours is probably trying to escape his desirable life as well. I was stupid, thirsted for nothing but destruction. I want wars to end, that's why I gave you my power."
This was the same person as the Baran I saw? There was no sign of the proud, crazy Baran I know.
"Now, protect your world."

I walked out of the smoke, the Sovereign of Beastly Fangs was looking over Lennard Neirmann, Korea's last line of defense against this attack. I let my presence be known by activating Mental Control and attacking his spiritual defenses, he looked at me and roared, the clash between a newly awoken Sovereign against another Sovereign is about to begin.
Blade of True Tranquility activated, instead of a white, burning aura appearing around my blade, only a dull, blue aura did. The Sovereign of Beastly Fangs seemed to think I've turned weaker. If my scythe can't break through his skin, I'll kill him on the inside.
I felt a strong, unnerving aura appear behind me, Jin Woo has awoken, two Sovereigns on two, one of them being the strongest Sovereign and an unknown Sovereign against a weakened Sovereign and another, with near zero spiritual defenses is truly an unwinnable battle.
The Sovereign of Beastly Fangs fled, I knew what we were going to do, I opened a gate and pursued the fleeing Sovereign while Jin Woo fought the Sovereign of the Frost. I scanned the world for the mark I left on the spiritual body of the Sovereign of Beastly Fangs, I found it in Mexico, in a secluded cave.
"Shall we settle this once and for all?"
Hello again! Author-san here! The battle of Jin Woo and Mizuki against the Sovereign of Beastly Fangs, Sovereign of Plagues, and Sovereign of the Frost is nearing an end!
A new Sovereign has also been born, who knew I would do this! (of course, I did)
