"Indeed, you have lost." Jin Rou clearly said, "However, you have fought well and that''s verymendable."
Jin Rou didn''t know that his talking to the overlord had turned for a 180 degree. At first, he was mocking and insulting him. But now, it was like he was sympathizing with the enemy. Of course, it didn''t mean that Jin Rou would spare the other party. His responsibility was more important than any emotions.
"You have be so strong, Your Majesty." The overlord looked at the sky with countless expressions, "But I think it isn''t enough. You''re going to face enemies stronger than you in the future, so you need to get stronger as soon as possible."
"You know something about the news of the devils?" Jin Rou quietly asked.
"Just a bit. You see, I have so many resources that I don''t know how to use it now. So, I''m using it now to gather news and information about the whole universe." The overlord answered truthfully, "And I know that the devils will be trying to take a bite of our ce."
"Yes. They are adamant on this n and I can feel that anytime soon, they will reach this universe." Jin Rou''s eyes shed with a glint of mercilessness and said, "The moment they step foot on mynd will be their utter demise, I''ll make that sure."
"Of course, if Your Majesty is going to get stronger than this and face them, for sure the victory will certainly be yours." The overlord sighed and said, "Though I won''t see your victorious day."
Just a while ago, the two were fighting as if they were enemies that needed to kill each other to satisfy themselves. However right now, they were like two friends talking to each other for the veryst time.
"It''s okay. You might not be witnessing my victory towards those beasts, but it''s okay. You can go on to your next life without worrying much." Jin Rou smiled and spoke with confidence.
The overlord became silent for a while before saying, "With me dying, the light will regain its advantageous position. The bnce will be overturned and it will have detrimental effects."
He was speaking the truth. Everything needed to be bnced, well bnced to maintain a cycle and a life. But now that the overlord was soon to die, an unimaginable steps forward would be made soon and the light would instantly cover the entire universe.
It wasn''t a good effect, even though it was the light we were talking about. That''s why the overlord said it had detrimental effects. He didn''t mention this while they''re fighting because he knew that it was still useless. Jin Rou''s agenda wouldn''t stop because of this. After all,pared to darkness taking over, over the fact that light taking over, thetter was surely be preferred.
By now, half of the overlord''s body was already gone and it was still continuing.
"What is your exact reason for seeking darkness and want to spread it?" Jin Rou asked what he really wanted to ask.
Since time immemorial, the overlord was already alive along with his grandparents. If he chose a different path, he would surely be a sage, a famous and respectable one at that. With his person and attitude, he was suiting to be called that. However, he chose the darkness, which was an arduous and hard path filled with mockery and hatred from the masses.
The overlord didn''t answer immediately and just looked at the sky. Though he was already dying, it felt like he wasn''t feeling it. After a few moment, he finally spoke, "Because I want to prove that darkness has also its own peace."
"..." Jin Rou was confused, so he didn''t know what to say.
"Darkness isn''t bad, in actuality." The overlord resumed and exined what he was trying to say, "It is bad because it is what the teachings told you all, when you speak about it, all ill and bad things would be mentioned. Where in fact, the darkness is the thing that keeps everything in check."
"…" Jin Rou still couldn''t get it. He kept on ying the words on his head toprehend it, but it seemed it was useless. The exnation was just simple and shallow, yet he couldn''t understand it.
"You don''t need to understand everything. After all, even with your strength, you are still just a child." The overlord gave a smile and said, "Enjoy everything you have and get stronger. That''s the best you can do for now."
Jin Rou nodded his head. Indeed, they were the best things to do as of the current situation. He needed to be stronger so that he would be more worthy of being the celestial king. Besides that, he would stabilize his position in the celestial realm.
"One more thing, before I go, Your Majesty." The overlord seemed to remember something and spoke once again, "You need to be wary of the Court Council."
"Hmm?" Jin Rou didn''t know why the overlord said this.
The Court Council was the most important force of the Rou Celestial Realm. They held the highest authority that almost on par with the family. They were a bunch of sages who had lived long enough to be a living fossil, just like this overlord.
"I have tried to gather information and investigate about the Court Council. And I found out that they are nning something. I don''t know what is it because of the codes they were using that time but I know that it will not be a good thing for you and your family." The overlord exined. By this time, he already lost his leg and next his lower part of his face, "My time is up now, Your Majesty. I have said all the things I want to say, please take care and I wish you all the victories of the eons."
"Shhh..." And after that, the dark overlord hadpletely turned into ashes and had been carried by the wind.
