"This... How dare you...!"Trezef gripped the hilt of the holy sword as if trying to pull it out from his chest.

However, at that moment, a brilliant white light poured out from the holy sword. That light flowed into Trezef's body without leaving a trace.

"Ugh!" The light gradually faded from
Trezef's eyes, which were bloodshot and
fierce. Soon, his body slowly fell backward.

*THUD!*

With a dull sound, Trezef collapsed, and no
longer moved.

The intense light completely
vanished from his wide-open eyes.

After a brief moment of stillness, the triumphant
cheer of the holy sword filled Yelena's
mind.

"I killed him! I've finally put an end to this
disgusting brat! Wahaha!"

And then,
Yelena let out the breath she had been
holding. The air that had filled her lungs
rushed out all at once. He was dead. The
Demon King.

The Demon King who invaded
this world and sought to destroy it... was
dead.

"Yelena!" Yelena's tense body trembled
visibly. Kaywhin quickly approached and
caught Yelena's body, which was about to
collapse.

☀"Yelena, are you okay?"

"I'm fine. I'm okay."

With the situation finally resolved, the
faces of the people who got hurt while
trying to protect her flashed through
Yelena's mind one by one.

Her knight guards and Aendydn. She needed to quickly assess and treat their injuries.

"The knights and Andi..." However, Yelena's words couldn't reach their end. An
unexpected weakness drained from her
body.

Feeling a deep sense of tranquility,
Yelena lowered her head onto a firm chest.

'What is this?'

Yelena blinked. A completely white space
filled her vision, devoid of anything.
Somehow, she felt some kind of
premonition.

As Yelena looked around, her
eyes widened suddenly. "Noah!"

The seer who had shown her the future
and told her how to change it, Noah, stood
before her, gazing at her in silence. His
wrinkled face was both familiar and
unexpectedly surprising, as she hadn't
anticipated seeing him again so suddenly.

"How did you... come to meet me? No, more importantly, where exactly is this?"

Yelena's gaze scanned the surroundings once more.
At that moment, Noah's lips parted.

"Congratulations."

" ?"

"You succeeded in killing the Demon King.
Congratulations, indeed."

"Noah?" Yelena's voice held a hint of
perplexity, as she mumbled. Noah's
appearance, his voice - everything was
just as she remembered, yet there was an
indescribable uneasiness. Only now did
Yelena realizes that Noah's atmosphere
seemed slightly different from before.

He appeared somewhat more composed
than before... and harder to approach.
Even his manner of speaking had changed.
However, she didn't feel the need to point
out his altered way of speaking. More than
that there was something she wanted to
say now that she met Noah again.

Yelena spoke up. "Thank you." Her words
carried deep gratitude. "I wanted to say
this when we met again. Thank you for
letting me meet my husband. I'm grateful. I mean it."
